When Concubine Shen saw Concubine Lan stand up, she really wanted to go and take a look, so she quickly winked at Concubine Lan and shook her head, as if to say: You can't go!

When Concubine Lan saw Concubine Shen's expression, she became a little hesitant in her steps.

Song Qingwan saw that Concubine Lan paused, and continued: "Come on, Concubine Lan, come and have a look. We will absolutely believe that you have no prejudice against the Queen!"

At this moment, Concubine Lan ignored Concubine Shen's dissuasion and walked forward.

Concubine Shen couldn't help but sighed, "Alas..."

Lan Fei came to the table and took a quick look. It was indeed exquisite, but she said, "It's just so-so!"

Song Qingwan pointed at the phoenix and said, "Hey, Concubine Lan, you are wrong. Look at this embroidered phoenix! It is so vivid and lifelike!"

Concubine Lan looked in the direction Song Qingwan pointed. "Okay, Concubine Yu, stop making noise! ​​You're giving me a headache. I can take care of it myself!"

Song Qingwan blinked her big eyes and asked the queen: "Queen, can I touch you?"

The Queen said, "Of course."

Song Qingwan gently stroked it with her hand. "Wow, this material! It feels warm to the touch. It is indeed suitable for the queen to wear in autumn. The embroidery room is really thoughtful!"

The queen nodded and said, "This is the only piece of material that the Ministry of Internal Affairs has recently sent as tribute."

Song Qingwan said to Concubine Lan, "Lady Lan, you can touch it too!"

Seeing that Concubine Lan was unmoved, Song Qingwan grabbed Concubine Lan's hand and touched the material. Sure enough, it was different from ordinary fabrics. At this time, Song Qingwan had already let go of her hand. The warm touch made Concubine Lan touch it a few more times subconsciously.

At this time, Song Qingwan secretly kicked Lan Fei's heel...

"Ah!" Lan Fei fell forward for some reason!

Song Qingwan quickly helped Concubine Lan up: "Concubine Lan, are you okay? Look, your shoes are too high, you can't even stand steadily!"

Concubine Lan instinctively pulled away Song Qingwan's hand with disgust and said, "Alright, let go! Don't touch me!"

Suddenly someone shouted, "Ah! The Queen's phoenix robe is damaged!"

Everyone looked at the phoenix robe, only to see a long cut on it caused by Concubine Lan's armor...

When the queen saw her beloved phoenix robe ruined like this, she was furious and asked, "Princess Lan! What are you doing?"

Concubine Lan looked at the phoenix robe, then at her own hands. It seemed that she had slipped accidentally when she fell forward just now. She quickly apologized, "Your Majesty, I am innocent!"

The queen was furious. "You are innocent! Everyone saw it. It was your armor that scratched it!"

Ru Fei said, "Yes, Lan Fei, don't explain. So many eyes can see it!"

Concubine Lan said, "It's not me! Someone tripped my shoes just now, so I fell down accidentally!"

Song Qingwan came out quickly and said, "Empress Lan, look at what you said! Who dares to touch your shoes? I heard that Ling Changzai accidentally touched your shoes yesterday, and you even asked Ling Changzai to kowtow to your shoes and apologize!"

When the queen heard this, she was shocked and said, "What! Concubine Lan actually had such a thing!"

Concubine Shen quickly stepped forward and said, "No, Queen, Concubine Lan originally wanted Ling Changzai to compensate her with a pair of shoes, but Ling Changzai loved money like her life and didn't want to do that, so Ling Changzai resorted to this desperate measure!"

Song Qingwan asked in confusion, "How could it be? She is the emperor's concubine after all. There are so many servants coming and going in the palace. Who would be willing to humiliate themselves and kowtow to apologize if they can be compensated? Queen, why not ask Ling Changyi?"

The Queen then remembered that Ling Xiangxiang had asked for leave and didn't come. "Call! Call Ling Changzai!"

Chengping Palace

Ling Xiangxiang had a big bump on her head, and Shizi was applying hot eggs to her. Ling Xiangxiang couldn't help but screamed "hiss..." "

Persimmon comforted her, "My dear, bear with it for a while. This can reduce the swelling!"

"Okay then! Persimmon, please apply some medicine to my knee later. It still hurts so much." Ling Xiangxiang said

"Okay, got it, young master~" Persimmon said

At this time, Beatrice suddenly walked in and said, "This servant pays respects to Ling Changzai!"

Ling Xiangxiang was about to stand up, but the pain in her legs made her sit down again. "What's wrong, Miss Bitui? Why did you come here in person?"

"No need to get up, Concubine Ling. I am here to tell you that the Queen has ordered you to go to Fenghua Palace!" said Bi Cui.

Ling Xiangxiang asked in confusion, "Ah? Didn't I already take leave?"

Beatrice replied, "It's not a greeting, it's about you accidentally damaging Concubine Lan's shoes yesterday. The Queen has sent you to ask about it!"

Ling Xiangxiang couldn't help but be shocked. Could it be that the Queen knew about it so quickly? "Yes, I know! I'll go there right after I change my clothes."

"Yes, I'll take my leave." Bit Cui said and left.

Later, Ling Xiangxiang came to Fenghua Palace with a skeptical and curious attitude.
