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

Chapter 280: Confrontation at Fenghua Palace

Concubine Lan had just returned from Lingxiao Palace and was eating cakes and drinking tea in Chuxiu Palace while talking to the palace maids below.

"When I saw Chen Yi today, I felt that he seemed to have grown a lot taller. He is really my good son. Even the Grand Tutor kept praising him in front of me!"

Meng'er said, "The third prince is extremely intelligent and will definitely be a pillar of the country in the future!"

Concubine Lan said proudly, "Of course, it doesn't matter whose son it is. It doesn't matter if the Queen's second prince is a legitimate son. He is neither good at literature nor martial arts, so he still cannot be favored by the Emperor!"

Meng'er was about to continue speaking, echoing Concubine Lan's words, when the palace maid Xiuluan suddenly came in to report, "Your Majesty, Bihu beside the Queen suddenly came over!"

Lan Fei said disapprovingly, "Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao will come! What is Bihu doing here?"

Xiuluan said, "Bihu said that the Queen has something important to attend to, and asked Her Majesty to go to Fenghua Palace!"

Concubine Lan said calmly, "Let her go down. Tell the Queen that I just came back from Lingxiao Palace and I am a little tired. I will go there tomorrow."

After hearing this, Xiulua conveyed the message to Bihu.

Who would have thought that Bihu would refuse to leave, saying that the Queen had ordered that Concubine Lan must go to Fenghua Palace today.

Xiulua had no choice but to come in again to report to Concubine Lan.

Concubine Lan was nonchalant at first, but when she heard Bihu say that, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows. "What's the big deal? Why do you have to make me go today? I won't go. Let's see what the queen can do to me."

At the same time, in Fenghua Palace

When Xiao Rui heard that the Queen had sent someone to tell him that there was something to discuss, he rushed over.

As soon as the emperor entered the room, everyone knelt down and saluted. "Greetings to the emperor, may the emperor be blessed!"

"Everyone, get up." Xiao Rui said

After hearing this, everyone stood up. Xiao Rui immediately noticed Su Xin, who was looking disheveled and ragged, and frowned and said, "Which crazy concubine ran away from the cold palace?"

After hearing this, Beatrice had a hard time holding back her laughter.

The Queen stepped forward and said, "Girl, raise your head quickly so that the Emperor can see you!"

After hearing this, Su Xin quickly raised her head and met the emperor's gaze. After the two looked at each other, the emperor's expression changed from shock to complexity...

"Are you a government official?" Xiao Rui asked

"Yes...I am your concubine..." Su Xin said, and she sniffed deliberately to show her pity.

"Why did it become like this?" Xiao Rui asked

Su Xin cried and repeated what she had just said to the Queen.

The queen appeared calm on the surface, but her eyes were fixed on the emperor to see how he would react after hearing what he heard.

After hearing this, Xiao Rui's expression did not change at all, making it difficult for the Queen to guess what he was thinking.

Seeing the emperor like this, Su Xin sobbed and said, "Your Majesty..."

Xiao Rui then spoke up and said, "Okay, I understand! Let's talk about it when Concubine Lan comes."

The next moment, the door rang, but the one who came was not Lan Fei, but Bihu who returned empty-handed.

Bihu first greeted the emperor, and then said, "Your Majesty, Concubine Lan...she said that she had just been to Lingxiao Palace today and was exhausted, so she didn't come..."

Concubine Lan didn't give her face like this, and the queen's face darkened instantly. She asked again, "Didn't you say it was my order that she must come here today?"

Bihu stole a glance at the emperor's reaction and stammered, "Yes, but Concubine Lan said...said..."

The Queen asked impatiently, "What did Concubine Lan say? With the Emperor and me here, just tell me the truth!"

Bihu said, "Lan Fei said that she won't come. Let's see what you can do to her, Queen?"

After hearing this, Xiao Rui subconsciously touched the jade ring. Concubine Lan's mother's family had just made a contribution, but she was so impatient and arrogant. Thinking of Xia Lu's previous report that Concubine Xi's death was also related to Concubine Lan, Xiao Rui frowned.

Xiao Rui said, "Just say it's my order and ask her to come here immediately!"

After hearing this, Bihu nodded and said, "Yes, I will go there right away."

The Queen and Su Xin were very pleased at this moment. They were just waiting for Concubine Lan to come and see how the Emperor would deal with her.

Chuxiu Palace

As expected, when Concubine Lan heard that the emperor wanted to go there immediately, she became a little flustered, "Quick, dress me up!"

After Meng'er had done her makeup again, Concubine Lan got on the sedan chair and came to Fenghua Palace.

As soon as Concubine Lan entered the room, she put on a smiling face, especially after seeing the emperor, "Oh, the emperor is here too, I pay my respects to the emperor!"

Xiao Rui naturally knew that Concubine Lan was pretending. If he was not there, who invited her in?

Seeing Concubine Lan talking to the emperor with a smile on her face, the queen couldn't help but ask, "Concubine Lan, do you know why I called you here?"

Concubine Lan said innocently, "Of course I don't know, but the Queen wants me to come, no matter how late it is, I have to come, right~"

The Queen was too lazy to talk to her, so she got straight to the point and said, "After all, the official girl is a concubine appointed by the Emperor himself. Moreover, it was my idea to let the concubines dress up more. How come the official girl dressed up so carefully, but was bullied like this by you, Concubine Lan?"

Only then did Concubine Lan realize that Su Xin was also here. She had been so focused on looking at the emperor that she didn't notice Su Xin in the corner.

When she took a closer look, Concubine Lan was shocked!

I did pull off her hairpin and mess up a few strands of her hair, but I didn’t make it look like the mess it is now! And her clothes were torn by Meng’er, so they are now tattered like a beggar on the street…

Lan Fei asked, "You, how did you become like this!"

Su Xin sobbed slightly and said, "Empress Lan, you did this with your own hands, and now you don't acknowledge it..."

Seeing Su Xin's fake crying, Concubine Lan understood immediately! Su Xin, this lowly maid, deliberately made herself like this so that she could complain to the emperor and the empress!

Concubine Lan gnashed her teeth and said, "Official girl, you can't talk nonsense. I have never bullied you! How can you frame a good person?"

Su Xin pulled her maid Xiao Lan over and said, "Your Majesty, my maid also saw it with her own eyes. She was also hit in the face by Concubine Lan!"

Concubine Lan curled her lips and smiled, "She is your personal maid, so she will naturally speak in your favor. Has anyone else seen her?"

Su Xin pointed at Meng'er who was standing beside Concubine Lan and said, "She! She saw it, too! And Concubine Lan ordered her to tear up my clothes!"

Meng'er quickly shook her head and said, "No, it's not me. How can you frame a good person? I have never done such a thing!"

Concubine Lan continued, "Could it be that you, the official girl, deliberately designed this drama... Is it because you haven't been summoned by the emperor for a long time, so you chose to slander me in order to win the emperor's pity and sympathy?"

The Queen looked at Concubine Lan's clever words and became anxious, so she could no longer sit still and stepped forward and said...
