Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace: Wanwan's Daily Advancement

Chapter 247 The best humiliation is to ignore

Shupin actually didn't want to talk about these private matters. After all, she grew up reading books of sages, and recently she had seen a lot of human relationships that she had never seen before, and she knew better what to do and what not to do.

She was just in a trance, and suddenly she understood the methods that Ruyi used to win favor some time ago, and she spoke out subconsciously.

Seeing Ruyi's embarrassed and angry look, she realized how rude she was. A look of shame appeared on her face and she wanted to apologize.

Yan Wan called out to Shupin, "Shupin, have you checked the gift list I gave you? It's full of ancient books, many of which were collected recently. Although the Ministry of Internal Affairs has already checked them, I still want you to be able to identify them one by one for safety reasons."

Speaking of business, Shupin stood up hurriedly and said, "Your Highness, I have already reviewed one third of it."

Yan Wan said gently, "I see that you are very tired from sitting here, and Wanpin is also very literary, so why don't you two go and continue to examine the ancient books together?"

Shupin's brows relaxed, and Wanpin also showed a surprised smile: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Ruyi said coldly, "Is Concubine Ling no longer pretending to be virtuous and fair now?"

She glanced at Wanpin meaningfully and said, "Some people need to know that there is no such thing as a free lunch. If there is, you will have to pay a high price."

Yan Wan said gently to Shupin and Wanpin: "She is just a concubine, on the same level as you. She just said some sour words. Don't take it seriously. Go quickly."

Shupin smiled at Yanwan and said, "Your Highness is right."

At this moment, she had recovered from the shock. Although she still felt that she shouldn't talk about Ruyi's private affairs in public, she was really annoyed that Ruyi kept making trouble:

"If Concubine Xian is angry about what happened just now, I apologize. I shouldn't have exposed how you schemed against the emperor and how you ascended to the throne and regained his favor. But now that I think about it, I can think of something. Concubine Xian, since you did it, how do you know that it is not known to everyone in the palace?"

She looked at her coldly: "I know you like to preach to others and think that no one is better than you, but you have to know that it's just what you think. In fact, I think you are... terrible!"

After she said that, no matter how angry Ruyi was, she bowed to Yanwan and was about to ask Wanpin to leave.

Wanpin summoned up the courage to ask her to wait, walked to a place not far from Ruyi, and said seriously: "Xianpin, please don't say provocative words to me again. When you were a noble concubine, everyone never got any benefits from you, but didn't they still have to obey your orders and do this and that for you?

Now that the Imperial Concubine Ling has asked everyone to do something, we all know in our hearts that it is because of the Imperial Concubine's kindness that she has allowed the Emperor to see us, the lower-ranking concubines, and we are all very grateful."

After a pause, she tried to say the most unpleasant words: "Don't hold a grudge against us for having separated you from me for three days recently. Don't come to Changchun Palace to make trouble. If you must make trouble, come to me in private, and don't make trouble with the Empress and the Imperial Concubine."

She was really not good at speaking. Otherwise, she would not have been so affectionate towards the emperor. The emperor knew nothing about it and felt that she was restrained every time he saw her.

But her words, especially the last one, really hit the mark and broke down Ruyi's defense.

Ruyi raised her eyebrows and said, "I never expected that you, Wanpin, who are always gentle, considerate, fresh and elegant, could actually say such a thing against your will for a little profit."

Wanpin's face flushed: "I didn't."

Jiapin couldn't stand it anymore and sighed, "Xianpin is promoted and demoted too quickly, so she can never adapt to her own status! You are a concubine, but you yell and shout in front of the Imperial Concubine and in the Queen's palace, and scold us sisters. What kind of thing is this..."

Her beautiful face was full of deep thought. She thought for a moment and said, "Oh, yes, it's called 'Sima Zhao's intentions are known to everyone'!"

After saying that, he burst out laughing first.

Yanwan exclaimed and laughed too.

When she laughed, everyone else laughed along, regardless of whether they found it funny or not.

At first glance, it sounds like a perfect couple with lots of laughter.

Ruyi was so angry that she was shaking all over: "You, what do you mean by this?"

Jiapin looked at Yanwan and said, "Your Highness, since Xianpin asked so sincerely, I…"

Yan Wan smiled at Shupin and Wanpin with great joy: "Two sisters, go and get busy. There are a lot of things to do recently. I won't keep you two here to watch the fun."

Shupin couldn't help laughing out loud. Seeing Ruyi's face as dark as the bottom of a pot, she was still not used to this kind of cricket-like behavior in front of her, so she pulled Wanpin away.

Wanpin walked out of the door before she dared to look back: "Lady Ling Guifei is really a good-tempered person."

Shupin nodded seriously: "She treats people very well. I didn't know her personality before. I heard a lot of gossips about her from Concubine Xian and Keliyete, so I didn't like her. But later, when I really got to know her, I found that she was really a very studious and hardworking person."

Wanpin was full of curiosity: "I heard that even when Concubine Ling was in confinement, she insisted on practicing calligraphy."

Shupin sighed, "That's right. Even the emperor praises her calligraphy. If her family hadn't fallen into poverty when she was young, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to catch up with her talent now."

She comes from a family of scholars and is well-read, but Wanwan is in a very difficult situation, but she never forgets to improve herself. Others are trying to survive in the cracks, but she is trying to survive in the cracks and at the same time, she is studying hard with the help of the light that comes through the cracks.

Shupin said seriously: "So, I am completely convinced that she is the imperial concubine."

Wanpin felt a yearning in her heart: "No wonder the emperor dotes on Xianpin so much, and is willing to slap Xianpin in the face for the sake of Concubine Ling."

This was the first time that Shupin didn't want to mention the emperor. She always felt that Wanwan's hard work and diligence were Wanwan's own glory, and the entanglement between the emperor and Ruyi should not be linked to such a clean thing.

She said calmly: "Princess Xian is not worthy of being compared with Wanwan."

Wanpin looked at her thoughtfully and smiled gently: "I think so too."

The two of them went hand in hand to the storeroom where ancient books, calligraphy and paintings were kept. After a short while, they were completely absorbed in the work and completely forgot about the fight in the front hall.

In the front yard, Ruyi just felt uncomfortable all over, and her anger was rising uncontrollably.

She could tolerate Wei Yanwan and the others using conspiracy and tricks against her because they could not argue with her.

She could also tolerate them banding together to isolate her again and again.

However, she could not tolerate Wei Yanwan calling her a joke and even asked Shupin and Wanpin to ignore her and let them go!

How could they ignore her?!

How dare they?!
