Chapter 128 Report to the Imperial Concubine
Qi Chuan entered the palace and went to the Imperial Household Department to complete his work. Then he found a young eunuch he knew well, gave him some silver, and asked, "Brother, I want to ask you something."
The young eunuch took the silver and stuffed it into his arms, grinning from ear to ear: "If you have any questions, just ask. We are all brothers, why should we be so polite?"
"I know brothers are loyal to each other." Qi Chuan complimented him and asked, "Your Majesty is currently favoring a lady named Luo?"
"Oh, you know everything?" There was nothing to hide, the young eunuch said with a smile, "That's our Imperial Concubine. Ever since she entered the palace, everyone in the palace has been like a living creature. You can tell how much His Majesty dotes on her. He even took her to Phoenix Mountain yesterday."
Qi Chuan was stunned: "The Queen is not in the palace, when will she come back?"
The young eunuch said, "How would we know? Why are you asking about the Empress's whereabouts?"
Qi Chuan didn't lie: "The Empress's sister was in trouble outside the palace. She wanted to see the Empress but couldn't, so she asked me to come in and deliver a message to the Empress. I didn't expect that the Empress was not in the palace."
The young eunuch understood that it was human nature to seek help from powerful relatives when in trouble. The imperial concubine was kind-hearted and would definitely help.
What's more, His Majesty has sent people to Yanzhou to pick up the old lady. Who knows, this sister will receive some honors and rewards in the future.
If he does something good at this time, it will definitely be beneficial in the future.
"So it's the Empress's sister who's in trouble. We can't just sit back and watch," the young eunuch said enthusiastically. "Since Your Majesty and the Empress are in Phoenix Mountain, they need to be provided with daily necessities like fresh fruits and vegetables. The people from the procurement office have been gone for a while. You can quickly catch up with them on horseback and tell the steward, Xiao Liuzi, my name. I'll have him take the message in for you."
Qichuan was overjoyed and hurried to express his gratitude.
The young eunuch waved his hand and said, "It's just a small favor. Just mention me in front of my lady."
Qi Chuan quickly agreed and was about to leave the palace to chase the people from the procurement office, but he didn't expect to run into an acquaintance when he went out.
"Miss Wen?" Qi Chuan was a little surprised. "Why are you here at the Imperial Household Department?"
Wen Xiangjun was also surprised to see him and said with a smile, "I'm here to submit the paperwork. I'll be going to the Northern Pacification Office in two days."
Qi Chuan said happily: "Then can we work together?"
Wen Xiangjun nodded, feeling very happy.
She always ranked first in the assessments, and the academy finally let her go out to work!
You will be able to show your talents in the future!
She bowed and smiled, "I'll have to ask Brother Qi and Brother Pei to take good care of me in the future."
When Qi Chuan heard her mention Pei Ji, he couldn't help but sigh.
Miss Wen was about to be sent to the Northern Pacification Office, but he was arrested. Life is really unpredictable.
Wen Xiangjun asked, "Why are you sighing, Brother Qi?"
Qi Chuan wanted to tell her about Pei Ji, but he had to go chase the people from the Procurement Office and couldn't afford to waste time. He just said, "Come to the Northern Pacification Office in a couple of days and I'll tell you in detail. I have something else to do right now, so I have to leave first."
Wen Xiangjun only asked casually, and upon hearing this, she quickly said, "Brother Qi, please do as you please."
Qi Chuan nodded at her, walked out of the palace quickly, took his horse, and galloped all the way to Phoenix Mountain.
I just caught up with the people from the procurement department at the foot of the mountain.
Following the young eunuch's instructions, he mentioned his name to the steward Xiao Liuzi and stuffed him with some silver. Xiao Liuzi immediately became much more friendly.
When he heard that it was the Imperial Concubine who was in trouble, he immediately patted his chest and said, "Since it is the Imperial Concubine's business, we must not slack off. You wait here, I will send someone to report to the Imperial Concubine and see what she will say."
Qichuan had not expected to see the imperial concubine, and had planned to let this little Liuzi deliver the letter in. He did not expect that he was willing to go in and report. He was overjoyed and quickly responded. He stood there and watched the little Liuzi lead the convoy to the guards at the foot of the mountain, show his badge, and pull the convoy up the mountain road.
