Cuizhu was frightened by the sharp sound and dropped the scissors to the ground.

The basket originally slung on my arm also fell down, and some beautiful flowers fell to the ground, with their petals falling off.

Su Ning'an saw the palace maid walking towards her angrily, with a fierce attitude, completely unlike other palace maids who were either respectful or cautious when seeing her, so she knew that this maid's identity was extraordinary.

But no matter how bad the palace maid is, she can't afford to have to explain to her as a master.

Cuizhu hurriedly straightened her dress, stepped forward and stood in front of Suning'an, saying, "Sister, we saw that the hydrangeas were in bloom, so we just asked the grandmother in the Royal Garden, Said this flower can be picked.”

The corners of Yayu's eyes were sharp, and she just glanced at Su Ning'an for a moment, then gently bent her knees and said, "Zhao Meiren."

Then he looked at the hydrangeas that fell on the ground, "Your people said that a nun told her that she could pick them? Which nun is it? If we find her, I will not be able to unjustly accuse the beauty."

"This..." Su Ning'an and Cuizhu hurriedly looked around. There were all maids or servants in the imperial garden, but the nanny just now disappeared.

"She...she was still there just now." Cuizhu murmured.

Yayu curled her lips contemptuously, "Who in the harem doesn't know that this hydrangea was planted by the emperor specifically for Concubine De, and was specially transplanted from the Prince's Mansion after the emperor ascended the throne! No one can touch it except Concubine De! Even the queen doesn’t know how to pick it, so how could anyone tell you that you can pick this flower?”

"But just now..."

"Cui Zhu!"

Cuizhu felt aggrieved and wanted to argue, but Su Ningan stopped her sternly and looked at Yayu, "In that case, I will go to Yaohua Palace later to apologize to Empress Dowager De."

"Empress De Fei is a generous person and she would never argue with Zhao Mei." Yayu walked half a circle around Su Ning'an, looking her up and down, causing Su Ning'an to frown slightly in discomfort.

But Yayu seemed not to have seen it, and smiled, "I know that Zhaomei is favored by His Majesty. It is human nature that you don't understand many things when you first entered the palace, but there should always be a sense of superiority and inferiority in Zhaomei's eyes. You need to know Even though you are a beauty, every plant and tree in this palace belongs to the emperor, not you..."

As Yayu was speaking, her cheek suddenly felt a burning pain. She covered her face and looked at Su Ning'an in shock, "Zhaomei Ren..."

"What are you! I am a beauty personally consecrated by the emperor, and you are just a little palace maid. Where did you get the courage to teach me!"

Cuizhu stood beside Suning'an, excited and panicked at the same time. The young lady was getting more and more powerful! Completely different from before!

But she is the first-class maid of Concubine De. Everyone in the palace doesn't know that the empress is first and Concubine De is second. No one dares to offend her. Will the lady be in trouble if she is like this?

Yayu was so angry that she bit her lip after being slapped by Suningan, and could only kneel on the ground without daring to argue.

She was originally the dowry of the empress. From the prince's palace to the harem, not to mention all the maids in the palace, even the Baolins in the palace were very angry when they saw her. Su Ning'an was just a little beauty, how could she dare to fight her? she!

Yayu's face was tense. Although she was angry, she could only endure it. Just because the master is the master, even if she is only a fourth-grade beauty, she is still a master.

"What? Miss Yayu thinks that I don't have enough status to talk to you?" Su Ningan put her hands on her chest casually and asked coldly.

"Yayu is just a palace maid and can't say Zhao Meiren, so I can do it!" As soon as Yayu opened her mouth, before she could say anything, Concubine De's voice came from not far away.

The hurried steps were carried by the wind, the palace skirts of the palace were fluttering in the cold, and the green rings in the hair were jingling. Such momentum shocked the palace people who were quietly looking here and couldn't help but take a few steps back, not daring to look again.

Concubine De stood in front of Suning'an, her eyes falling on her.

"Get up." Stretching out her arms, Yayu quickly stood up and supported her carefully, "Zhaomei is so grand. Do you know that every hydrangea flower is the emperor's affection for me? How can you allow it? You can break it at will."

She was a concubine, she was a beauty, so she had to bow to Concubine De, but Concubine De did not allow them to stand up, so they could only kneel down.

Status is something that can crush someone to death just by being one level higher, let alone a first-level concubine!

The form just now fell over in the blink of an eye.

"Empress De, I really don't know that the emperor planted these hydrangeas for me, otherwise I would not dare to pick them. I will never dare to do this again in the future, please forgive me."

Concubine De glanced at Su Ning'an coolly. At eighteen years old and with such good looks, being favored didn't seem to matter.

She looked at the flower that was thrown to the ground again. The scattered petals were like the emperor's affection for her, wasn't it? Fortunately, there is the unborn child and the kindness hanging there.

Concubine De turned to look at Yayu, "Does the beating hurt?"

"My servant is fine. I just feel sorry for the hydrangeas that the emperor personally ordered to be planted for the queen."

"It's no pity. Year after year, there will naturally be fresh ones." Concubine De glanced at Suning'an again, "Since Zhao Mei has already realized her mistake, I don't care about it, just a small punishment."

Looking at the bright sun and the hot steam, Concubine De stood in front of Suning'an, "Zhaomei knew her mistake, so she knelt here and thought about it until..." looked at the tree beside her, "until Just provide shade for the beauty.”

Cuizhu looked at the shade huddled under the tree roots. This was the one closest to them. How long would it take? Wouldn't it burn the young lady to death?

"De Concubine, please forgive me. It was my fault. I am willing..."

"Cui Zhu! Your Majesty, Concubine De, is already showing mercy, so how can you complain anymore." After saying that, he bowed to the ground again, "I would like to thank you for your teaching."

"Humph, you are a sensible person. I can't blame the emperor for loving you." Concubine De curled her lips and her eyes fell on Suning'an again. How could the emperor's new favorite be so pleasing to the eye.

"Your Majesty, it's hot. I'll help you back to the palace. The palace has prepared ice porridge, which is great for relieving the heat." Yayu said and helped Concubine De out of the imperial garden.

"Mother, how could they..."

There are a lot of people in this imperial garden. The chambermaids and maidservants coming and going, they rarely glance at them secretly when they pass by. Even if they don't say anything, it is very embarrassing.

"Can't you see it yet?" Su Ning'an wiped the sweat on his forehead with a handkerchief, "Just a short time after entering the palace, some people can't sit still. Maybe we were targeted in the Imperial Garden that time, otherwise today How to make a game?"

"But, since the young lady entered the palace, she has been obedient in everything and has not offended them." Cuizhu bit her lips tightly, feeling really unfair. But Concubine De punished them, and no one dared to help.

"Why didn't you provoke them? With grace, you have already blocked their way." Su Ning'an bit her lip. Even if she said this, she couldn't just keep kneeling like this, her knees would be broken!

Suddenly his eyes lit up and he adjusted the handkerchief on his hand.

"Ouch, what is this?"

Le Jieyu looked at the kitten-like thing a few steps away, ordered someone to take it and put it in his hand, and said with a smile: "Look, this handkerchief can be folded into a kitten. It's really amazing." I don’t know who has such skillful hands.”

Looking in the direction where the kitten came, I looked, "Yo? Isn't this Zhao Meiren? Why are you kneeling here?"

"Empress." Bin'er quickly grabbed Le Jieyu's sleeve, "It seems that Zhao Meiren picked the hydrangeas of Empress De Fei and was punished."

Le Jieyu glanced at Suning'an who was kneeling beside the hydrangeas and said with a smile, "It's better not to go shopping on this hot day."

Suning'an sighed in her heart as she watched Le Jieyu take the people away.

The last time I paid my respects, I felt that Le Jieyu was a cheerful person and didn't seem to get along with others.

But it’s just a matter of luck, that’s fine.

Anyway, we are all serving the emperor, but harmony is already impossible, so it would be nice if we don't add insult to injury.

Sighing softly, he raised his eyelids and looked up at the sky. It would be nice to bask in the sun. It would at least keep him fit. I just hope he doesn't get a heat stroke.

The master and servant knelt for a while longer, sweat broke out on their foreheads again, but the veil was gone.

He licked his dry lips and looked at the shade of the tree, but he didn't move at all.

Just as he was lamenting in his heart, he saw Tao'er bringing several maids to salute him, "Mr. Zhaomei asked me to find my maids easily. The Empress wishes to see you."

"But..." Not even a drop of water came in, and his throat was dry and astringent. Suningan could only moisten his throat with saliva, "I did something wrong. Concubine De punished me to kneel here, please." Miss Taoer, please reply to the Queen and wait for another day..."

But seeing that Tao'er was blessed again, she said, "This slave is offended. Your Majesty's words are not right. The most serious master in the palace is the Empress, besides the Emperor. Moreover, Empress Dowager De is always generous and generous, and she always respects the Empress. How can she care about it?" ? Moreover, the Queen has issued a summons, how can the beauty shirk it? Please also ask the Queen to follow the servants to Fengyu Palace."

"Since the Empress has summoned me, I dare not disobey." Su Ning'an nodded.

The maid from Fengyu Palace helped Su Ning'an up, moved around for a while, and then took Cuizhu and followed Tao'er to Fengyu Palace.

"Your Majesty, look, I said this Zhaomei is good-looking. She also has skillful hands. She might be able to fold other things."

As soon as Suning'an entered Fengyu Palace, she saw Le Jieyu opening a double-layered porcelain cup. The first layer of the porcelain cup was filled with crushed ice, and the middle was filled with mung bean paste, which was just half a bowl.

"It's better to come by chance than by chance. Come on, this mung bean paste is just chilled. It's very refreshing but not too cold." Le Jieyu raised the corners of her eyes brightly and looked at Suning'an with a smile.

Suning'an glanced at Le Jieyu gratefully, then respectfully greeted the queen, and then bowed to Le Jieyu before sitting down at the bottom.
