Chapter 208: Mutual Appreciation
Jiang Youning and Jiang Wanrong's eyes lit up almost at the same time.
"Is it okay?"
"Of course you can." Wu Qingyi nodded with a gentle look in her eyes. "My mother is not an unreasonable person. You have lived in the Jiang family for more than ten years. The Jiang family has always treated you as their own child. The Princess's Mansion is next to the Jiang Mansion, so you don't have to get entangled in anything."
"Thank you, Mother!"
Jiang Youning became even more excited.
[Oh my god, what kind of fairy is this? She is so considerate.]
[If I had known this would happen, why would I have felt so bad that afternoon?]
Jiang Wanrong, who was standing by, also felt much better.
It was not until the night was dark and several people were planning to rest in the Yunxiang Tower that Wu Qingyi belatedly looked at Jiang Youning and the others.
"When you came out, did you leave a message for the palace?"
Jiang Youning took his new niece and nephew to stand in a row, looking at each other and then shaking their heads.
"Forget it, if you didn't leave a letter, then forget it. You can go and have some rest."
Wu Qingyi waved his hand, then glanced at the spring beside him.
With just one glance, Lu Quan knew what the Queen Mother meant.
He nodded, quickly left Yunxiang Tower, and climbed over the walls towards the imperial palace.
~~~
Imperial Master's Mansion.
After receiving the intelligence from the palace, Qian Yan was shocked for a long time and thought that he must be blind to see the news that Jiang Liu was the Queen Mother's youngest daughter.
He never expected that the little girl he had previously despised turned out to be a golden phoenix that had fallen on the wrong branch. This news had a great impact on him.
He poured himself more than a dozen basins of cold water and stood on the rooftop to enjoy the warm breeze for a long time. When his clothes were gradually dried by his body heat and the wind, his mind that had been running away from home finally came back a little.
then.
When Qing Qianxue learned the news about Jiang Youning's life experience, it was already dark.
"Why are you reporting this now? It happened several hours ago."
Qing Qianxue sipped her tea carefully and looked up at Qian Yan.
Qian Yan hesitated for a long time, and finally uttered a few words slowly: "Master... Master, I think this news is too... shocking. By the time I digested it, it was already dark."
"Haven't you had digestive problems lately?"
"Yes... a little bit."
The master seemed quite calm. Qian Yan was unsure of what he meant, so he nodded slightly tentatively.
Qing Qianxue read the secret letter carefully, rolled up the letter paper, and began to burn it over the candle.
“Since you have trouble digesting food, go get some medicine from the miracle doctor.
Eat more light vegetarian food that is easy to digest for three meals a day in the future."
It was a rare opportunity for Qian Yan to be cared for by his master. He was extremely happy. He shook his head and said excitedly:
"Master, you are very observant. I just happened to have not had a bowel movement these days. I was thinking of asking a miracle doctor to get me some medicine."
“…”
Qing Qianxuedun was there, the candlelight drying out his silence.
A few seconds later, he stood up, picked up the warm woman and walked out.
The Tangpozi was the one given to him by Jiang Youning, and he carries it with him wherever he goes now.
After he stepped out of the study, he stopped and spoke softly:
"In that case, starting today, you will increase your training time by one hour every morning and evening!
Qian Miao, go prepare a double-weight sandbag. Watching him practice Qinggong in the capital for an hour should be enough to promote digestion."
After saying that, Qing Qianxue strode towards the private vault.
"yes!"
Qian Miao answered from behind, his remaining eyes falling on his stupid and silly brother beside him, and he sighed helplessly.
Why is it that some people never learn their lesson and always make trouble for themselves?
"elder brother……"
Qian Yan felt aggrieved and tried to pull Qian Miao's sleeve.
Qian Miao threw back his sleeves, said lightly, "You deserve it", and turned around to prepare things.

The next morning.
A group of royal relatives and nobles, led by Emperor Wenzong of Chu, all went to the court with panda eyes when the sun was shining brightly.
There was resentment in everyone's eyes, and they just stared at Chu Wenzong.
The day lily that everyone was waiting for last night was gone, but in the end the princess didn't see it, and she didn't even have a chance to catch a glimpse of the Empress Dowager's face.
It was not until late at night that His Majesty told everyone that the banquet could begin, as the eldest princess and the queen mother were delayed by something and could not come.
They now seriously suspect that this is a new way for His Majesty to plunder treasures after the immoral act of selling fish at a high price!!!
What the hell is the eldest princess? That's all just money-grubbing bullshit!!!
Those eyes were too intense. After secretly sighing for the nth time that his own mother had let him down badly, Chu Wenzong coughed twice out of exhaustion.
Afterwards, he tried to ignore the few wronged people standing in the front and looked at his loyal ministers.
"Ahem... My dear ministers, do you have anything important to report today?"
"Your Majesty, I have something to report!"
The appearance of a beloved minister relieved Chu Wenzong's embarrassment.
Finally.
After a group of ministers gave their advice, Emperor Wenzong of Chu spoke again.
"I have one more announcement today."
All officials raised their heads.
Emperor Wenzong of Chu continued loudly: "Fourteen years ago, I had a younger sister who was stranded among the common people. Yesterday, my sister was found."
All the officials cried out in astonishment, and then immediately knelt on the ground together: "Your Majesty, we congratulate you!"
"Gentlemen, please stand up."
Seeing that he had finally dispelled most of the doubts of those innocent people, Chu Wenzong continued to speak:
"Thanks to the blessing of God, my sister ended up in the Jiang family due to some strange circumstances.
The Jiang family has raised children for my royal family. They are truly loyal and loyal subjects. I am very grateful for their kindness!"
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, I am scared."
Not sure what the emperor was planning now, Jiang Huaian knelt down decisively.
He also wanted to know what good things the Jiang family had done in their previous life that all the royal descendants were running to his Jiang family this time.
Although they didn't mistreat the royal bloodline, but...
This matter is more or less an offense to the majesty of the royal family. It is not impossible that His Majesty will make things difficult for the Jiang family for the sake of his face.
"Lord Jiang, please stand up quickly. The Queen Mother and I are grateful to you. Why are you so scared?"
Jiang Huaian did not take credit for himself, which made Chu Wenzong feel more comfortable.
When he thought about how Jiang Liu loved to make noise, and how Jiang Huaian had lived intact for so many years, he inexplicably felt a sense of mutual respect.
This is a deserved reward, so it doesn't hurt to talk about it anymore.
"Jiang Aiqing and his family have worked hard over the years and deserve great rewards!"
"Jiang Huaian accepts the order!"
"I accept your order!"
Jiang Huaian knelt there, his body beginning to tremble.
Your Majesty will not reward him to go home and retire, right?
"Reward the Jiang family... a huge sum of gold and a manor..."
"Also, all the Jiang family members in the court will have their salaries tripled."
Jiang Huaian knelt more and more steadily, and his eyes became brighter and brighter as he counted the rewards from Chu Wenzong's mouth.
Especially after hearing about the salary increase, the excitement on his face had completely suppressed the panic.
