The legitimate daughter is reborn and the fake Bai Lian is completely panicked

The next day, after Shen Mi finished her breakfast in Lanyue Courtyard, she and Marquis Pingyang entered the palace.

Going to the palace to see the queen was fake, the real purpose was to find Su Rong.

In the carriage, Marquis Pingyang looked at Shen Mi with a frown.

"Mi'er, do you have a man you like?"

Shen Mi was caught off guard by Pingyang Hou's question: "Dad, why do you always ask your daughter this question?"

Pingyang Hou sighed and said, "Dad is just afraid that you will be deceived at such a young age."

"If Mi'er doesn't want to marry the prince, she can find a gentle man."

"Some people, the more dangerous they are, can take your life at any time."

Shen Mi didn't understand the deeper meaning of Marquis Pingyang's words. Could it be that her father suspected her?

In the carriage, Marquis Pingyang sighed.

Ever since the incident at Fan Lou, he had suspected the relationship between Shen Mi and Murong Che.

He vaguely remembered hearing Murong Che's ambiguous groan outside the private room of Fanlou.

Could it be that the person in Murong Che's arms at that time was his precious daughter?

He didn't dare to think about so many doubts.

After Shen Mi arrived at the palace, Pingyang Hou went to the court, and he was taken to the queen's bedroom by the eunuch.

She knew that Fengyi Palace was a bit far from where Su Rong was cleaning.

Passing by the Imperial Garden, Shen Mi smiled and said to the young eunuch who was leading the way, "Eunuch, judging from your age, you should have been in the palace for many years. Have you ever been to the imperial palace?"

The young eunuch nodded, "I stayed for a while."

Shen Mi asked tentatively: "Then, have you heard of a man named Su Rong, who should be around twelve or thirteen years old?"

The young eunuch's expression changed slightly. He looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he said, "Miss Shen, please don't mention this person's name. It's unlucky."

"Why?" Shen Mi looked puzzled.

The young eunuch said, "Su Rong offended Concubine De the other day, and Concubine De had him banished to the palace."

"Who among us palace servants would dare to offend the master? But Su Rong has a stubborn personality."

Shen Mi was silent. He had already explained Su Rong's appearance and the palace Baixiaotang where he was cleaning. There was no need to ask too much now.

Shen Mi followed the young eunuch to the Queen's Fengyi Palace, and was then taken to the Queen's bedroom by the palace maid.

"My lady, Miss Shen is here."

"Let Miss Shen in." The Queen's voice came from inside.

Shen Mi was brought into the bedroom by a palace maid, and saw the queen sitting majestically in her seat wearing a phoenix robe.

When the queen saw Shen Mi coming, she smiled faintly.

Shen Mi immediately knelt down and saluted the queen: "Your servant, I pay my respects to Her Majesty the Queen. May Your Majesty be blessed with good health."

The Queen smiled and said, "Second Miss Shen, please stand up."

Only then did Shen Mi get up from the ground.

The queen gave her a seat.

"Last time I saw Miss Shen, she was dignified, generous, smart and polite. I heard from Marquis Pingyang that you should look through some medical books after you go down and find a better prescription to cure this palace's illness."

Shen Mi nodded and smiled: "To reply to your Majesty, is it true?"

"Your Majesty has liver qi stagnation. That decoction can only treat the superficial symptoms. You need to use another prescription."

The queen stretched out her hand and asked Shen Mi to feel her pulse.

Shen Mi's face was calm as her slender fingers rested on her pulse.

"Your Majesty's pulse is more stable than before, but you still need to recuperate and receive acupuncture for three consecutive days before you can recover."

"I will prescribe medicine for you right away."

As soon as Shen Mi finished speaking, the queen signaled to the palace maid to hand her paper and pen. Shen Mi picked up the paper and pen and wrote the prescription on the white paper.

"Prescribe this medicine, two doses a day, for three consecutive days."

"This acupuncture also lasted for three consecutive days. I personally opened up the blood sea meridians for your majesty."

The queen chuckled, "Then I'll trouble you, Miss Shen."

"Miss Shen is so smart, I wonder if she has a crush on a man?"

Shen Mi pursed her lips, knowing that the Queen was deliberately testing her.

"To be honest with you, my lady, I don't have any man I like."

The Queen's eyes changed slightly, and she asked tentatively: "So, what does Miss Shen think of Jing'er?"

Shen Mi lowered her head repeatedly and said with a smile: "Your Highness the Crown Prince is handsome and truly a rare talent. He is a good man."

"As for me, I was called the calamity star of the Shen family when I was born. My fate was so unlucky that my father and grandmother sent me to Yishui and brought me back only when I reached the age of 15."

The queen looked at her with her eyes down and said with a smile, "Miss Shen, why do you have to belittle yourself?"

Shen Mi knew that the Queen was trying to test her and choose a concubine for the Crown Prince just to win over Jiang Xuan.

He said calmly, "Your Majesty, it is getting late now, I will not disturb your rest."

"My father has not yet left the court, and I have only been to this palace a few times."

"I heard that the scenery of the Imperial Garden in the palace is very beautiful in early summer. I want to go there for a stroll."

The Queen smiled and said, "Then Miss Shen, I will have someone take you to see her."

"Thank you, empress."

After Shen Mi came out of the Queen's bedroom, she was taken by a little palace maid towards the Imperial Garden.

On the way, she turned her head to look at the maid beside the queen and said with a smile: "Sister Chunya, I lost something in the Pepper Room."

"I want to go to the Pepper House to retrieve that thing now. Sister Chunya, do you want to go with me?"

When Chun Ya heard the word "Jiaofang Palace", her face turned green.

What is the Pepper House? It is an extremely gloomy place.

She heard from the Queen that Shen Mi might have been able to enter the Pepper Room to light lamps because of Feng Ming.

But, Chun Ya is not destined to be a phoenix.

Thinking of this, Chun Ya's lips twitched and she said, "Miss Shen...why don't you go for a walk by yourself? The Queen still has things to do in the palace."

Shen Mi nodded, "Okay, I won't bother Sister Chunya anymore."

After Shen Mi got rid of Chun Ya, he went directly to the side courtyard of the palace from another path.

According to the information obtained by Bai Xiaotang, Su Rong was assigned to clean the northernmost and dirtiest area in the imperial palace's side courtyard.

That place was not a bedroom, but just a remote courtyard, and there were not many guards.

Passing by the Queen's Fengyi Palace and Concubine De's Zhenghe Palace, Shen Mi went straight north.

We met many patrol guards on the way.

However, some guards had seen her go to the Queen's bedroom twice, so they remembered that she was the daughter of Marquis Pingyang.

Maybe she will be the future Crown Princess.

Shen Mi walked around a small path and arrived at the northernmost part of the palace.

The further north I went, the more I heard mocking voices getting closer and closer to me.

"What a dog! He offended Concubine De for no reason."

"It's not enough to just have guts, you have to have the life to do it."

"No matter how strong your character is, you still have to face the reality. You will be miserable in the palace for the rest of your life."

"That's right, get under our crotch and we won't beat you."

The bustling and mocking voices came out along the palace walls.

Shen Mi lifted her skirt and walked forward step by step. She saw a boy about twelve or thirteen years old kneeling not far away.

The young man knelt on the ground with his head down, wiping the road in front of him clean bit by bit with a rag.

Bruise were visible on the boy's arms, cuffs, and even face, as if he had been beaten. Behind him was a young eunuch who was older than him.

The thinnest eunuch among them walked over and kicked the young man in the waist, causing the young man to fall to the ground.

The young eunuch said angrily, "Wipe it clean, Eunuch Zhang will come to check it later."

"We are being punished, and we are holding you responsible."

“It’s really tough.”

Shen Mi lifted her skirt and walked slowly along the cobblestone path toward the kneeling boy.

When several young eunuchs saw that the girl coming was as pretty as a flower, they thought she was the emperor's new favorite concubine and knelt down immediately.

"Greetings... Madam."

Shen Mi glanced at the eunuchs around him and said in a cold voice: "What mistake did he make that caused you guys to bully him like this?"

The eunuchs all lowered their heads and stammered, "He offended Concubine De."

Shen Mi sneered, "If you offend Concubine De, Concubine De will decide the crime, and you can't just bully me."

She slowly squatted down and looked at the boy quietly.

She was sure that the face in front of her was exactly the same as the portrait Bai Xiaotang had given her.

Shen Mi asked in a low voice: "Your name is, Su Rong?"

Su Rong immediately lay down, his whole body trembling, and said, "Yes, Madam, spare my life."

Seeing how scared he was, Shen Mi whispered, "I won't kill you."

"I just want to ask you one question, do you want to live?"

The young man raised his eyes, looked at Shen Mi firmly, and said firmly: "I want to live."

Shen Mi said calmly: "If you want to live, follow me."

Shen Mi stood up and walked to a place not far away in the front yard. Seeing this, Su Rong also stood up and followed Shen Mi.

In the pavilion in the side courtyard, Shen Mi quietly looked at the young man in front of him.

The boy was shaking all over, his eyes were filled with fear, and his body was covered with bruises from being bullied.

Scratches could be vaguely seen, and Shen Mi handed a painting to Su Rong.

On the paper was a very complicated picture with various annotations.

"Did you learn Go at the Su family when you were a child?"

Su Rong nodded immediately, "I have learned it."
