Ever since becoming the queen, Jing Qiaoqiao found that she had no time to play.

After finally reviewing a pile of memorials, in the blink of an eye, the Chief Eunuch Lu Xiaojia came up with another pile.

Jing Qiaoqiao felt weak and lay on the table.

When will it end?

"Lu Xiaojia, there are so many memorials. I'm so tired."

Lu Xiaojia put the pile of memorials aside and said, "If the Queen is tired, please rest for a while."

"Take a break. By the time I'm done, I'll probably have a bunch of memorials coming in."

Jing Qiaoqiao held her face in her hands, looking aggrieved.

Lu Xiaojia also felt distressed.

Although he is a little god, he is still a child after all. His height is not even as tall as the table, and he has to deal with so many memorials. It is really hard work.

Jing Qiaoqiao held the wolf hair brush in her chubby hands, and an idea suddenly occurred to her: "Go, call the two concubines here for me."

"Does the Empress want the two concubines to sleep with her?"

Jing Qiaoqiao was startled. "Eunuch Lu, what on earth are you thinking about? I'm just a child."

Lu Xiaojia’s old face turned red.

No wonder he thought too much.

In the dead of night, calling two concubines over, it's inevitable...

Jing Qiaoqiao was depressed, "I asked them to come and help me deal with the memorials."

Lu Xiaojia understood, picked up the whisk and turned away.

When the two concubines heard that the empress had summoned them, they washed and dressed.

He dressed respectably and followed Lu Xiaojia into the temple.

Jing Qiaoqiao waved warmly: "Come here."

"Yes." The two concubines strode up to him.

Jing Qiaoqiao divided the pile of memorials into three parts, one part for the imperial concubine on the left and the other part for the imperial concubine on the right.

I kept a few for myself.

"You will accompany me tonight to review the memorials. If you do a good job, I will reward you."

The two imperial concubines each held a memorial in their arms, not knowing what was going on.

"What are you standing there for? Sit down." Jing Qiaoqiao said, then turned to Lu Xiaojia, "Lu Xiaojia, prepare a table, benches, writing brushes, inkstones, and paper for the two concubines."

"Well, you must review it carefully for me. If there is anything important, tell me."

Although the two imperial concubines were surprised, since it was arranged by the empress, they did not say anything. They just responded and reviewed it silently.

The candlelight flickered in the hall. Jing Qiaoqiao yawned after reviewing two books.

I'm so sleepy.

She endured it for a moment, then turned to ask Lu Xiaojia beside her, "Are the teachers at the Hanlin Academy really so pedantic and partial to male students?"

Lu Xiaojia reported, holding his whisk, "When I went there, I happened to see a little girl named Chunxiang arguing with the teacher. She seemed angry about the content of the teaching."

"Then find me some young teachers to teach. In short, men and women are equal." Jing Qiaoqiao threw away the memorial and jumped to the center of the hall.

Looking at the two imperial concubines who were carefully reviewing the manuscript, he said, "Did you receive the gift I sent you?"

The two concubines stood up and bowed.

"Don't call yourselves concubines. It's weird." Jing Qiaoqiao leaned over. "From now on, just say your own names."

"yes."

"Okay, get busy." Jing Qiaoqiao looked at Lu Xiaojia, "Go tell the imperial kitchen to prepare a midnight snack. I and the two concubines will enjoy it after we review the memorials."

"Yes, Queen."

Lu Xiaojia bowed, walked out of the hall, and went to instruct the steward of the imperial kitchen to prepare a midnight snack.

That night, only the two imperial concubines assisted the empress in reviewing memorials.

But the next day, rumors spread that the empress had asked two concubines to sleep with her in one night.

When no one is around, the maids, old women and eunuchs are gossiping.

When the commander of the imperial guards, Jing Shenghua, was on duty, he heard his subordinates mention this matter and was so angry that he beat the man with twenty sticks.

He also warned his subordinates not to talk nonsense next time.

Although it was just a rumor, Jing Shengqiao, Jing Shenghan and Jing Shengcheng were jealous and worried. As soon as they got out of the court, they went to see Jing Qiaoqiao.

When she saw him, Jing Qiaoqiao was sleeping soundly on the desk.

I was busy dealing with government affairs last night and didn't get a rest all night. I have to get up early in the morning to attend court.

Jing Qiaoqiao was exhausted both physically and mentally.

"Aunt?"

When her nephews arrived, she was still sleeping on the table.

"Aunt?"

Jing Shengcheng found that Jing Qiaoqiao didn't respond, and couldn't help but walked forward and stretched out his hand to push her, "Aunt?"

"Nephew, you...you are here?" Jing Qiaoqiao opened her eyes and saw her three nephews standing close to her.

He raised his arm and asked groggily, "What do you want from me?"

"Aunt, there are rumors that you asked two concubines to sleep with you last night?"

Jing Qiaoqiao opened her eyes in shock, "What did you say?"

"It's true, it's spread everywhere." Qiao's nephew walked over and asked, "Aunt, what on earth did you do with the two concubines?"

"I was so tired last night, but the memorials are piling up. I have no choice but to ask the two concubines for help.

I originally wanted to find Xiao Lin, but wasn't he sick? "

"Aunt, why don't you look for us?"

"You are not in the palace."

The second nephew put his hands on his hips angrily and said, "Don't we still have our fifth brother? You can ask him for help. How can we ask others for help with something like reviewing memorials?"

"How long are you going to keep scolding your aunt?" Jing Qiaoqiao yawned again, "I know I was wrong."

"Okay, stop talking." The eldest nephew stopped him, "Aunt, Sheng Hua said that Xiao Lin has been making moves recently."

"It's not a big deal. He was just bored and wanted to poison me." Jing Qiaoqiao explained nonchalantly.

"Isn't this a big deal?" The second nephew said in a low voice, as if something terrible had happened. "Aunt, in my opinion, you should expose him and let him receive the punishment he deserves."
