When the Queen said this, Madam Ye was shocked, and Ye Xiaoxiao also frowned.
The queen was afraid that Ye Xiaoxiao would be suspicious, so she explained immediately.
"Xiaoxiao, don't misunderstand me. I'm just worried that you can't take good care of them both in the side yard by yourself."
"I have several capable maids around me who can not only take good care of the two children, but also take care of your daily life."
"The most important thing is that they have learned all kinds of rules in the palace, which will be helpful to you in the future."
Ye Xiaoxiao frowned even deeper, and Mrs. Ye spoke immediately upon seeing this.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. After I return, I will assign a few more people to look after Xiaoxiao and her two children."
"Xiaoxiao likes quietness. If the Queen gives her two maids, I'm afraid it will make others suspicious."
Ye Xiaoxiao nodded, "Your Majesty, I appreciate your kindness."
"It's just that this method is not in accordance with etiquette. If people knew about it, I'm afraid it would cause trouble for Xiaoxiao and the child. Xiaoxiao doesn't want anyone to disturb her hard-earned peace."
"But your majesty can rest assured. Now that you know you are pregnant with twins, Xiaoxiao will find a few more people to take care of her when she returns."
Seeing this, the queen did not force it, but because of the example of Ye Xiaoxiao, the queen was extremely distrustful of the Ye family.
"Okay, I'll do as you say. I was anxious and didn't think things through."
After the Queen finished speaking, she turned around, took a jade pendant from her dressing table and handed it to Ye Xiaoxiao.
"Xiaoxiao, wear this jade pendant. If you need help in the future, you can use it to come to the palace and find me."
Ye Xiaoxiao did not refuse. With this jade pendant, it would be much easier for her to do anything.
Seeing that she did not refuse, the queen took off a jade bracelet from her hand and put it on hers.
"My lady, this is unacceptable."
Ye Xiaoxiao quickly refused, but was forced to wear it by the Queen.
"Good boy, be obedient. I have a good impression of you. Consider this jade pendant as a welcoming gift from me."
"If you don't accept it, it would be disrespectful to me, and I will be angry."
Ye Xiaoxiao was speechless. How could this queen have the hobby of forcing others to accept gifts?
However, after putting on this jade bracelet, it feels warm and very comfortable.
Seeing that she no longer resisted, the queen explained with a faint smile.
"This is made of a piece of excellent warm jade. Wearing it will be good for your health."
Seeing this, Ye Xiaoxiao had no choice but to thank him.
"Xiaoxiao thanks the queen for her kindness."
The queen smiled again, glanced at Ye Xiaoxiao's slightly bulging belly, and said something confusing.
"Xiaoxiao is really capable, Madam Ye, Xiaoxiao is very lucky, your Ye family must treat her well."
Mrs. Ye nodded repeatedly. The entire Ye family was well aware of the fact that Ye Xiaoxiao was very blessed.
But Mrs. Ye never expected that Ye Xiaoxiao was pregnant with twins, a boy and a girl.
She secretly decided in her heart that after returning, she would let Ye Xiaoxiao move to the yard next to her.
The queen glanced at the time and saw that the mother and daughter had been in the palace for quite some time, so she spoke.
"After sitting with me for so long, Xiaoxiao must be tired."
"Mrs. Ye, please take Xiaoxiao back. Xiaoxiao is pregnant now, so you must take good care of her."
"Iris, go get my sedan chair and take Madam Ye and Miss Ye out of the palace."
Mrs. Ye was about to say that it was impolite, but Ye Xiaoxiao had already thanked her.
The palace's roads are so winding that it would be tiring to walk on them. How could she possibly let herself suffer when she had a sedan chair to ride in?
As for whether others will say it or what they will say, it has nothing to do with her.
Mrs. Ye's refusal turned into thanks, and she was then sent out by Iris.
After the two left, the queen could not hide her excitement and talked a lot with Iris.
Iris hadn't seen her queen so happy for a long time, so she was happy too.
"Iris, I want to send two maids to the Ye family. You have a lot of ideas, so help me think of something."
"How can we send someone there without attracting attention?"
Iris thought for a moment and said, "My Lady, the nanny beside you is too conspicuous. I'm afraid it wouldn't be appropriate to send her away."
"But the only wet nurses left who are trustworthy and won't draw too much attention to you are probably your Highness's two wet nurses."
"Over the years, these two have been taking care of His Highness's daily life in the East Palace, and they haven't been too noticeable."
"Furthermore, very few people dare to wander freely in the Eastern Palace, so many people no longer recognize these two people."
"Now that His Highness has gone to the border again, he won't need their services for a while. It would be perfect if they were sent there."
When the queen heard this, she was immediately overjoyed.
"Iris, I know you are the one who pleases me the most, so I will do as you say."
"Tomorrow, have these two pretend to be palace maids shopping, and take my badge and leave the palace."
"Xiaoxiao is a kind-hearted child. I will write a letter and ask them to take it and go directly to Xiaoxiao. I believe Xiaoxiao will keep them."
Iris nodded, then asked again.
"Your Majesty, should we tell His Highness about Miss Ye's twin pregnancy?"
The queen thought about it for a moment and then refused.
"No need, let's wait for him to come back and give him a surprise."
"By the way, tell the two maids to prioritize Xiaoxiao and not to offend her."
"Xiaoxiao is different from other girls. She is very opinionated and you must not go against her."
"Otherwise, I'm afraid she'll run away with the child before Lingyun comes back."
