A concubine's daughter is reborn and I want to enter the palace!

The sky is getting darker and a bright moon is about to rise.

The maid who was guarding Haitang saw that the time had come and said, "Okay, it's time, get up. I have to go back to the palace too!"

Haitang propped herself up and tried to get up, but due to kneeling for too long, her legs had lost all feeling and she fell heavily back to the ground.

The maid had just turned around and taken a few steps when she heard a "bang" behind her. She turned around and saw that the person who was punished to kneel had fallen down.

The maid looked around and saw that there was no one around, so she quickly walked up to Haitang and pulled her up. "Okay! Let's go! Stop being an eyesore here!"

Haitang said weakly, "What's your name? Thank you!"

The maid said quickly, "My name is Tan Xiang!"

Haitang looked at Tanxiang's extremely fast pace and couldn't help but laugh, "She really looks cold but has a warm heart."

Haitang thought as she walked, "Fortunately, I was punished and didn't bring trouble to the young lady. The young lady's life was too hard before. After entering the palace, things have just improved. I can't let the young lady be implicated."

Yufangzhai

Song Qingwan was almost going crazy because she couldn't find Haitang. Several people went to look for her separately but couldn't find her.

At this time, the little palace maid who had complained to Haitang during the day thought that Sister Haitang had not returned since she went to the Imperial Household Department.

"My lady, I remember now! Sister Haitang should have gone to the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Please wait for her in the palace. I will go and look for her!"

After hearing this, Song Qingwan nodded and said, "Okay! Be careful on the road, I'll wait for you in the palace!"

The young palace maid went to the Imperial Household Department to look for her and indeed met Haitang. She saw that Haitang's face was red, her legs and feet were weak, and she was moving slowly step by step.

"Sister Haitang! What's wrong with you?" the little maid asked worriedly.

Haitang said calmly, "Nothing. I met Concubine Wang's maid. She spoke rudely to me. I just said a few words back, and she called Concubine Wang to punish me."

The little palace maid suggested, "Ah... they are too bullying, Sister Haitang, let's tell the young lady! Let the young lady be the one to administer justice!"

"No! Stop causing trouble for the young lady. By the way, is my face swollen? Can't you see it?" Haitang asked

"Yes... it's a little swollen. It shouldn't be very noticeable at night. Why don't I serve you closely during the day?" The little maid volunteered.

"Okay! Let's do it!" Haitang agreed happily.

After the two returned to Yufangzhai, Haitang pretended to be cynical and said, "My lady, I'm back~ It was so much fun outside! I was so engrossed in the fun that I forgot the time hehehe"

Song Qingwan said calmly, "I haven't asked you yet, but you said it first! Don't do this next time!"

Haitang smiled and said, "Hehe, okay~ Master, I know~ Master, have you had dinner yet?"

Song Qingwan said, "No, how can I eat without you coming back?"

Haitang said, "I'm back now. My lady, please feel relieved now. I'll heat it up for you right away!"

Haitang was afraid that Song Qingwan would notice, so she immediately found an excuse and left Song Qingwan's sight.

After Haitang left, Song Qingwan left the little maid behind and asked, "Xiaoying, tell me, what happened to Haitang?"

Xiaoying wanted to keep the secret for Haitang, so she pretended to say, "My dear, what Sister Haitang said is true! Don't worry about it!"

"She hid it from me, so you want to hide it from me too, right?" Song Qingwan suddenly said seriously, changing her usual calm demeanor.

Xiaoying had never seen her mistress in such an expression, but she agreed to Haitang after all, and said with trembling lips, "Yes... it's true... mistress..."

"Don't think you are helping her by doing this, Xiaoying! I'm asking you for the last time! What happened to Haitang?" Song Qingwan looked straight at Xiaoying.

Xiaoying felt a chill down her spine from Song Qingwan's gaze, so she had no choice but to tell her mistress everything.

As soon as he finished speaking, Haitang also came in with food. Seeing the depressing atmosphere, she asked, "My lady, what's going on?"

Song Qingwan smiled and said, "It's okay, you can go downstairs to eat too. You've been playing for most of the day, so you can rest early after eating. Just leave Xiaoying to serve me~"

Haitang was just worrying about how to tell Song Qingwan to let Xiaoying serve her, but she didn't expect that the young lady would say it first, so she just accepted the order. "Yes! Young lady, I will withdraw first~"

Haitang happily stepped back, but when she reached the threshold, her legs suddenly went weak and she almost fell, so she hurriedly held the door. Xiaoying saw Haitang like this and wanted to help, but Song Qingwan shook her head at Xiaoying, and Xiaoying resisted the urge to go.

Haitang was afraid that Song Qingwan would notice it, so she turned around and said with a smile, "Hey, I was too tired from playing today, and I didn't see the road clearly just now~"

Song Qingwan smiled and said, "Well, it's okay, you can go down."

Not until Haitang disappeared from sight did Song Qingwan put away her smile, her face now cold and gloomy.

"Wang Huan! When beating a dog, you have to look at its owner first!"
