Soon, after the so-called rescuer was found at the Minister's residence, the notices posted in the capital were quickly torn down, as if they had never existed.
At that moment, Qin Qing suddenly wanted to know how much silver she had stored in her spatial storage. Taking advantage of the fact that Shaoyao and Xiao Muyue were both at the rice shop, she entered her spatial storage again…
This time, she quickly noticed something was wrong! Her hand, which was about to open the door to the second bedroom, suddenly stopped...
Even though the furnishings in her home were exactly the same as before, she felt that something was wrong. She turned her head and looked around, until a slight cool breeze blew by, and then she realized that something was wrong!
Finally, she seemed to see something, and her eyes widened instantly! There, on the other side of the previously blank wall, appeared a door that had never been there before.
A strong premonition washed over her, and she felt her heart suddenly race. Her fingers, gripping the doorknob, trembled slightly as she instinctively walked toward the door.
The moment she grasped the doorknob, the icy touch only heightened her excitement. No one knew what was happening outside, but this unusual change foreshadowed a transformation in some sense—space was evolving!
"Squeak~"
The moment the door opened, a blinding white light shone in, causing her to instinctively close her eyes. When she opened them again, she was stunned by the sight before her…
I felt a mix of excitement and disappointment, but looking at the empty grass in front of me, the breeze brought a familiar sense of comfort!
Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that the grassy area was only about fifty square meters in size, with a white wall at the edge, as if it were the end of the world, with no way out and no life at all...
It's as if this area arose from her own space...
This discovery shocked and delighted her. After all, the space was limited, so she dared not store many things in it, for fear that there wouldn't be enough room!
She racked her brains, trying to move the gold and silver jewelry in the second bedroom to the grass outside, but after a long while, nothing changed!
While wondering, Qin Qing went back into the second bedroom, took a bunch of things and went outside. Good! There was nothing unusual. It seemed that she needed to move things herself to appear here; she couldn't do it by willpower.
Then she began her big project, working hard to move the gold and silver jewelry chests out of the second bedroom, and also placing some silver and gold on the grass.
An hour later, the second bedroom was empty again, while various items were placed on the lawn in the yard.
When Qin Qing came out again, she was exhausted. After taking a sip of water, she suddenly remembered something and tentatively put the water cup into her spatial storage. She quickly discovered a problem: outside the spatial storage, she could only control things inside the house, while she could only see the items on the lawn but could not take them out...
So... the evolution of space is limited, right?
However, this surprising discovery is a good thing for her now!
Just then, sunlight streamed in from outside, and she snapped out of her surprise and remembered that she was supposed to come back and cook!
Time passed slowly, and she walked towards the rice shop with her basket. Everything seemed to be moving in a positive direction...
As she passed a notice board, she glanced at it and noticed that the notice that had been posted there a few days ago was gone, replaced by a new one, and a group of people were gathered around discussing it…
"Found her! So that woman was the wet nurse from the Minister's mansion!"
"What?! In my opinion, it must be that the Minister is trying to curry favor by finding someone from his own household. After all, it's a lucrative job with a reward, and the Emperor just happened to have assigned the task of finding someone to the Minister!"
Qin Qing glanced at their whispers but didn't pay them any mind. He then walked into the rice shop, where Shaoyao was chatting happily with a customer.
Upon seeing Qin Qing, Shaoyao immediately smiled. The female guest beside her, also being polite, took her leave. Qin Qing also smiled politely at the female guest.
After taking the basket, Peony excitedly started gossiping.
"Mother, do you know? This morning His Majesty summoned a wet nurse from the Ministry of Rites... It's rumored that the wet nurse is actually a spy His Majesty planted among the people to monitor all the merchants and officials in the capital!"
Qin Qing was taken aback, then looked over in surprise.
"Really? Such a strange thing? I didn't expect the Emperor, who seems so cunning, to actually care so much about the people's livelihood! But why reveal it? If he does, won't he be unable to conceal his identity and work in the future?"
Peony just smiled and then beckoned Xiao Muyue to put down her book and come over for dinner.
“Mother, don’t you know? A few days ago, a house not far from ours caught fire. It’s said that it was caused by a strange object falling from the sky. The people all think it’s divine punishment, and all sorts of rumors are circulating! Some people even say that His Majesty’s rule is illegitimate… Anyway, it has enraged His Majesty!”
After saying that, she took a bite of the stir-fried mushrooms and pork, and the delicious taste made her eyes light up!
"It's said that a woman bravely rushed in and saved someone's child, and she was said to be favored by heaven! Anyway, it's all very mystical!"
Rushing into the fire to save people? Isn't that exactly what they're talking about? Qin Qing couldn't help but ask, her curiosity piqued.
"What does that have to do with His Majesty revealing his identity as the wet nurse?"
Upon hearing this, Peony smiled mysteriously, then looked at Qin Qing with a smile.
"The amazing thing is that, in just a few days, His Majesty directly announced her identity as the wet nurse of the second young lady of the Minister's mansion! Saying she was a wet nurse was just to cover up her special identity. And look, it was the wet nurse who saved the person that day! His Majesty was overjoyed and rewarded her with a lot of gold!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Qing was stunned for a moment and asked in surprise.
"What did you say? The wet nurse of the second young lady of the Minister's mansion is the woman who rushed in to save people that day? Who said that? There should be a witness or proof for this kind of thing, right? You can't just assume that anyone who claims to be a hero is actually one!"
Peony didn't notice anything unusual in Qin Qing's tone and replied after picking up a piece of meat.
"Of course there are. It is said that a scholar had his water bucket stolen by the woman he was saving that day. He clearly saw the woman's face and even drew it, which is how the Minister found him."
After saying that, Peony ate the last bite of rice, chewing as she spoke.
"Why is Mother so curious about this? She usually doesn't care."
Qin Qing was puzzled, and after being asked this question, she subconsciously responded.
"Would you believe me if I told you that the woman who rushed in to save people was actually your mother?!"
"Pfft! Cough cough!"
Peony choked on a mouthful of rice, looking at Qin Qing in surprise, while the rice she spat out landed directly on Xiao Muyue's face across from her...
The little girl stared blankly at the peony, then pouted with a wronged look, her big eyes full of accusation.
