Su Xin saw Concubine Qing coming, so she had no choice but to bow and say, "Your servant greets Concubine Qing."

Concubine Qing looked at Su Xin and asked, "Where are you going, sister?"

Su Xin was about to say that she would go to the Queen Mother to seek justice, but then she changed her mind and thought that since the matter had not been settled yet, it would be better not to let other people know.

Then she said casually, "I feel bored, so I'm going to walk around..."

Hearing Su Xin say this, Concubine Qing didn't say much, but just smiled knowingly, "Then go ahead."

After a brief farewell, the two passed each other.

Only after they walked away did Xiaolan ask, "My lady, why didn't you tell Concubine Qing just now?"

Su Xin sneered, "I'm not sure if the Queen will make the decision for me! Why let so many people know and laugh at my joke?"

Xiaolan thought about it and it seemed to be true.

Concubine Qing and her servant, who were far away, also talked about this matter.

Concubine Qing said, "No wonder you ran into the palace in such a fuss just now. I didn't expect that a court lady would end up like this!"

But Ying'er shook her head and said, "Madam, when I saw the official girl in the palace just now, she didn't look so exaggerated. Her hair was a little loose, but she wasn't as unkempt as she is now."

"As for that dress, I remember there was only a long tear on it, it wasn't as tattered as it is now..."

After listening to Ying'er's description, Concubine Qing couldn't help but chuckle. It seems that this official girl is quite smart! She knows how to make herself even more miserable before asking the queen for help.

Su Xin walked on the road in this posture, attracting the attention of the palace maids and eunuchs on the road.

Seeing the palace maids' eyes watching the show, Xiaolan shouted, "What are you looking at? You see a lady of the palace and you don't even greet her!"

The palace maids had no choice but to lower their heads and casually responded with "This servant pays respects to the official lady..."

Su Xin ignored them and just kept walking forward.

After a while, they arrived at Fenghua Palace.

"Inform the Queen for me and tell her that the official girl wants to see you for something." Su Xin said to the guard at the door.

After hearing this, one of the guards went in and reported the news to Beatrice.

Inside the palace, the queen, sitting on the phoenix chair, said nonchalantly, "A girl from the Yin official? What is she doing here? She is not staying in the Yanxi Palace. Is she causing trouble again? Is she here to ask me for advice?"

Beatrice replied, "I don't know either. The official girl just said that she wanted to see the Queen for something."

The Queen did not take Su Xin seriously. It was New Year's Day and she was too lazy to clean up her mess. She just curled her lips impatiently and said, "Tell her that I am resting and I don't have time to see her today!"

Seeing that the queen refused to see the official girl, Bitui wanted to return to the guards and drive Suxin away, but after thinking for a while, she said, "Madam, I heard from the guards that the official girl was unkempt and ragged... It seemed that she had been beaten on the face."

"Oh?" The queen became interested instantly after hearing what Beatrice said. She had been leaning on the couch absent-mindedly just now, but now she sat up straight.

She changed her mind instantly and said to Bicui, "Then let the official girl come in so I can take a look!"

Beatrice let out a sigh and walked out of the palace.

As she walked, Beatrice said, "Come in, lady, the Queen is waiting for you inside!"

As a result, when she saw Su Xin, Bicui couldn't help but open her mouth wide... She couldn't help but think that the official girl seemed like a refugee who escaped from famine...

Shocked, Beatrice said, "I am honored to meet you, my lady. Please come in!"

Su Xin nodded and walked into the hall.

As soon as she entered the room, Su Xin bowed respectfully to the queen. "Your servant greets Her Majesty, may Her Majesty be well!"

When the queen heard Suxin's voice, she looked up at her. After seeing Suxin's appearance, the bracelet in her hand fell to the ground.

Beatrice quickly picked up the bracelet and handed it back to the queen.

The queen asked, "Get up, official girl, what's wrong with you? Why are you like this?"

Su Xin stood up slowly, and said with tears in her eyes, "Wow... Queen, you don't know, some time ago you said that we concubines should dress up brightly and beautifully to please the emperor and continue the heirs for Daqing..."

The Queen said, "That's what happened. What's the matter?"

Su Xin narrated the story, "Then I did as I was told. I dressed neatly and deliberately, thinking that the emperor would be happy to see me. But who knew that I would run into Concubine Lan! Concubine Lan said without any reason that everything I wore was stolen by me..."

"That's not all. Not only did he frame me, he also pulled out the hairpins on my head, pulled my hair hard, and ordered several servants to tear my clothes!"

Su Xin accused Concubine Lan of her evil deeds, and the Queen listened with great interest. She picked up the tea beside her and sipped it while listening to Su Xin telling her "interesting stories".

The queen asked, "What's wrong with your face?"

Su Xin touched her face. Yes, she almost forgot to talk about this. Then she squeezed out two tears and continued.

"It was Concubine Lan who couldn't stand the fact that I was dressed so brightly today. She said without any explanation that everything I wore was stolen. I was wrongly accused and after I argued back a few times, she slapped me hard in the face... wuwuwu..."

The queen resisted the urge to laugh and said gently, "Alright, alright, don't cry, my lady. I will definitely give you justice in this matter!"

Su Xin's eyes lit up after hearing this. "Really? Your Majesty, thank you so much!"

The Queen stroked her bracelet and said, "The palace also has its own rules. Don't hit people in the face. Besides, I told you to dress up properly, and Concubine Lan is offending me by doing this!"

"What's more, without any evidence, you are accusing a lady of your innocence. Concubine Lan is defying the palace rules!"

Listening to the queen's impassioned speech, Su Xin felt more confident.

Su Xin said, "That's right, Queen, Concubine Lan is really too much and too arrogant!"

The Queen looked at Su Xin and said, "You are a maid appointed by the Emperor himself. How dare you torture you like this in broad daylight? Bicui, please ask the Emperor to come and help us seek justice for this maid!"

Then he said to Bihu, "Bihu, go and ask Lan Fei to come over."

Seeing that the queen was so righteous and asked the emperor to help her make the decision, I was glad that I came to the right place!

Su Xin excitedly bowed deeply to the queen, "Thank you, Queen!"

The queen called Su Xin to get up, "Get up, you don't have to be polite, it's my duty to take charge of all the affairs of the harem."

"Okay, just sit back and wait for Concubine Lan and the Emperor to come!"
