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

"I pay my respects to Her Majesty the Queen" Ling Xiangxiang is here

Everyone looked back and saw that Ling Xiangxiang still had a big bump on her head. They thought that what Song Qingwan had just said must be true.

The Queen said, "Get up, what's going on with Ling Chang on your head?"

Concubine Shen answered quickly, "Concubine Ling, quickly tell the Queen that the wound on your head was caused by you not choosing to pay compensation, so you kowtowed to Concubine Lan to apologize."

Ling Xiangxiang didn't hear anything wrong with Concubine Shen's words. "Yes, that's right, Queen."

Song Qingwan was so anxious that she asked Ling Xiangxiang, "May I ask Ling Changzai, why didn't you give her compensation?"

Ling Xiangxiang replied, "Empress Lan said her shoes were worth three thousand taels, and I really can't afford to pay for them!"

Three thousand taels! The whole audience was shocked when this was said.

Song Qingwan asked, "Three thousand taels? Queen, as far as I know, the monthly allowance for a concubine is three hundred taels. Concubine Lan said that her pair of shoes was worth three thousand taels. Could it be that Concubine Lan didn't eat or drink for ten months just for a pair of shoes?"

"But even if you don't eat or drink, you still have to reward your servants as a concubine. You can't let the entire Chuxiu Palace suffer like this, right? The servants in Chuxiu Palace don't look like they are short of money, judging by their clothes!"

Concubine Lan retorted, "If I say so, it was my mother's family who sent me the subsidy! Lady Yu, do you have a problem with that?"

Song Qingwan said, "Ah! That's even more problematic! Lady Lan, your father is: the governor of the grain transport, second rank, with an annual salary of 155 taels, 155 hu of green rice, 13,000 taels of silver for maintenance, and he has the entire Xu Mansion to support."

"Madam, concubines and maids, there are at least a dozen people, right? Oh, yes, Concubine Lan also has brothers and sisters. Not only that, I heard that you are an aunt, right? In addition, everyone has maids and servants, as well as servants, female servants, warriors, coachmen, grooms, cooks in the mansion... There are at least a hundred people!" Song Qingwan said slowly.

Concubine Lan asked, "Lady Yu! What on earth do you want to say?"

Song Qingwan said, "What I mean is that, considering the hundreds of people in Concubine Lan's mother's family who need to be supported, and the salary of Concubine Lan's father, it is unlikely that they can specially take out another three thousand taels just to make a pair of shoes for you!"

Concubine Lan retorted, "My father has so much money, can't he just favor me? Lady Yu, please don't speculate here!"

Song Qingwan covered her mouth and pretended to be surprised, "Ah! Could it be that... the Governor of the Grand Canal... is corrupt...?"

"How dare you! Lady Yu, you can't lie!" Concubine Lan became anxious when she heard Song Qingwan say that her father was corrupt. She knew that her father could not stand the investigation.

Song Qingwan said to the Queen, "Your Majesty, why don't I ask the Emperor to make a final decision... This is related to the previous dynasty..."

"Song Qingwan! How dare you!" Lan Fei's face changed drastically

Song Qingwan asked, "Why wouldn't I dare? Could it be that Lady Lan is guilty of something she did? Or are your shoes not worth three thousand taels at all and you are deliberately trying to scare Ling Changzai?"

Princess Lan, I'm afraid the matter has really gotten out of hand. Shunpo rode his donkey and said, "Yes, this palace was just trying to scare Ling Changzai on purpose!"

Song Qingwan said, "So according to this statement, Ling Changzai is worthy of her! It's Concubine Lan who is deliberately making things difficult for her~"

Ling Xiangxiang finally realized that Song Qingwan was helping her when she saw this. "Your Majesty, please make the decision for me! Concubine Lan threatened me with a high price in public and forced me to kowtow to her shoes, Your Majesty!"

The Queen then put on her airs and said, "Princess Lan, if your shoes are really worth three thousand taels as you said, then I will have to report to the Emperor and have him investigate your father thoroughly!"

Concubine Lan quickly shook her head. "No, no, no, I don't have any. My shoes are not worth anything. I just wanted to play a joke on Concubine Ling. Who knew she would take it seriously?"

Song Qingwan suddenly stood up and said, "Are you kidding? That's not how you joke, Concubine Lan. If you let the emperor's concubines kowtow to your shoes in public, how would you describe your dignity, Concubine Lan? And how would you describe the emperor's dignity as the supreme ruler?"

Concubine Lan turned around and glared at Song Qingwan. "Lady Yu, you are talking too much here. What do you want?"

Song Qingwan said, "Since Concubine Lan deceived Ling Changzai and made Ling Changzai suffer public humiliation, and many servants saw it, it stands to reason that she should apologize!"

Concubine Lan was shocked after hearing this: "What? You mean to ask me to apologize to a little maid? Concubine Yu is probably a little confused!"

Song Qingwan said, "We should not discuss the status of the people and ignore the facts. Empress Lan, you know that if the emperor breaks the law, he is guilty of the same crime as the common people!"

Song Qingwan's relentless pressure made Concubine Lan even more furious. Concubine Lan said firmly, "You want me to apologize to a concubine. It's impossible!"

Song Qingwan was not angry after hearing this. "Then I have no choice but to ask the emperor~"

Concubine Lan pointed at Song Qingwan and said, "You!"
