"Cough, cough …" After Shen Qing Wan left, Wu Ling's face became pale, "Mo Lan, help me back to my room."

With the assistance of Mo Lan, she stood up and looked in the direction of the courtyard gate with regret in her eyes.

After changing, he was wrapped in a white inner garment. During the day, he could only see a slightly thin figure. But now, he felt so thin that only his skeleton remained.

"Hehe, this is a secret." He only saw the maid say arrogantly as he turned his head. This was what she said to the Ninth Prince when he passed by the study yesterday.

At this moment, the Begonia in the yard had become a bit withered, leaving only a few leaves bitterly holding on.

"How have these few days in Concubine Xian been?" Liu Chugrong couldn't sit still. Her yard was not fully restored, so she slept for a few days in the empress's yard. After a few days of peace, she came back to visit again. It was unknown what she was thinking.

Shen Qing Wan looked at her but didn't want to reply. Coincidentally, Lian Yun, who was cultivating the broken branch and leaf of the flower, arrived at her feet.

"Could Honorable Liu please step down? You're blocking the way." Shen Qingwan lowered her head to look at her feet. Sure enough, she was only a hair's breadth away from the crabapple blossoms.

Lowering her head, she saw Lian Yun looking at her with an aggrieved expression, she was slightly annoyed in her heart, a small servant dared to look at her in such a manner.

His legs tilted, and his body fell towards Lian Yun's direction.

Lian Yun was originally a petite girl, although she did not know any martial arts, she was still quite nimble. Subconsciously, she took a step back, and because of this step, there was a splash on the grass.

"AHH!"

Apparently, even La Mei, who was behind her, didn't have time to react. She fell to the ground, but luckily, the Begonia flower had just been pruned, so it didn't hurt her face. However, from the looks of it, he was as embarrassed as he could get.

"Chi …" Shen Qingwan looked at this scene with a hint of schadenfreude, but who could she blame for this? She could only say that she stole the chicken but not the rice.

"Honorable Liu, what are you doing? Even if you like my Begonia, you can't just pounce on me like that."

Liu Chugrong sat up, looking at her fiercely. He turned his head and glared at La Mei. "What are you standing there for? Help me up!"

Lamey reacted and quickly went forward to help her up.

On the other hand, Lian Yun continued to embroider the flower as if nothing had happened, and ignored her, just that she did not want to let her go like this.

"What's wrong with you, maid!" Could he be plotting to kill me! " Liu Chugrong raised his eyebrows and glared at her, as if she was the one who caused her to fall.

Shen Qing Wan did not manage to block his kick and ended up kicking Lian Yun's arm instead.

"Today, I shall teach you, a maid, a lesson in place of your master!" With that, he asked Lamei to pull her up.

Lamei was about to move out when he heard a furious roar and stopped in his tracks.

"Stop!" Shen Qing Wan stood in front of Lian Yun, protecting him as she stared at him with a cold expression. Why, did the person who touched her have to greet her? Her servant girl was not someone who could be taught a lesson, "Honorable Liu, have you forgotten? Lian Yun is one of my people, furthermore, you are a noble now, shouldn't I bow in respect when you see me? "

Liu Chugrong's expression changed. Honorable person, why did she have to be reduced to such a noble person?! Despite the anger in his heart, his body shook and he still bowed.

She did not want to participate in their dispute from the start, but seeing that Lian Yun was being bullied, she could not sit still and watch, the look in her eyes becoming colder and colder.

"Honorable Liu needs to think this through. You can't touch my people!" He turned around and helped Lian Yun up, then gave her another Eye Knife.

Normally, Shen Qingwan had a calm appearance and looked gentle and easy to bully. But today, she was truly shocked. She did not dare to go forward again. She bit her lips and stomped her feet in anger. In the end, she left with La Mei who was behind him.

Staring in the direction the two of them left in, until their figures disappeared, her expression finally eased up, and her gaze became gentle, "Lian Yun, are you alright?"

Seeing Lian Yun clenching her teeth in pain, she knew that her kick must have been heavy. She sighed, but it was she who harmed Lian Yun, "Go and rub some medicine."

Lian Yun was also a strong person, the tears in her eyes went up and down a few times but she held them back. Like this, Shen Qingwan silently decided in her heart that she must not be this weak in the future.

As for Liu Chugrong, she was unwilling to leave her yard, but now, as a noble person, she lost against her in terms of momentum. Previously, he only thought that she was easy to bully, but today, it was as if she had become a different person. Humph, if she hadn't become a noble, who would have thought that she wouldn't be respectful.

After returning to the house, she crumpled the papers on the table into a ball and threw them all on the floor. It was as if this was the only way to vent her anger.

"Humph!" "Useless thing!" It was unknown if it was because there was really no place for him to vent his anger, but he threw the handkerchief in his hand at Lamei's face, "What's the use of me raising you!"

"Please calm your anger, Empress!" Everyone in the room immediately kneeled down, until she turned around and let them out of the room.

Now, she could be considered as living under someone else's roof. She couldn't even throw anything in this room. She felt depressed and her face was twisted.

"Esteemed Empress, the empress is here."

While he was still fuming, he heard the announcement from outside. Liu Chugrong clenched his fists and a smile appeared on his face again.
