Chapter 400 Two Money-obsessed People
The Queen Mother was naturally happy.
For so many years, since the birth of Concubine De's fifth prince, there has been no more prince in the harem.
Although the crown prince is now doing a good job and has handled the affairs of the previous dynasty very well, the royal family still needs to expand.
Although the Fourth Prince is an heir to the royal family, he is not a royal heir of pure blood after all, so he cannot be counted on.
Now that the Third Prince has angered his father, the Emperor, he has been demoted to the Imperial Clan Court, so he can no longer be relied upon.
By this calculation, there are too few princes that Your Majesty can rely on.
Thinking of this, the Queen Mother suddenly sighed: "Fortunately, Jin Yao and Jin Yu are very capable."
At this point, the Queen Mother suddenly thought of something and turned to look at Nanny Su: "Jin Yao hasn't been here for a long time."
The Queen Mother touched Lu Xingwan's head and said with a smile, "Jin Yao is a filial son. He is afraid that I will not be able to adapt after his father leaves the capital, so he comes to visit me almost every day."
Song Qingyan clearly saw the flash of panic in Nanny Su's eyes.
I knew in my heart that everyone around the Queen Mother probably knew about this.
"The Queen Mother is jealous!" Song Qingyan said jokingly, "The Queen Mother is jealous of her own son!"
The Queen Mother smiled helplessly and pointed at Song Qingyan: "Look at this rascal, how dare you make fun of me."
When Nanny Su heard Song Qingyan say this, she breathed a sigh of relief, smiled and said a few more words to change the subject.
[Don't worry, Grandmother, the Crown Prince is busy pretending to be sick right now! ]
[After the crown prince gets better, I will spank him every night for the royal grandmother.]
"Your Majesty, Miss Qionghua is here." Just as a few people were chatting and laughing, the little maid outside ran in and saluted respectfully.
"She came quickly." Song Qingyan looked at the Queen Mother with a smile, waiting for her to speak.
The Queen Mother was naturally very happy to welcome Qiong Hua in. She even stood up and pulled up Qiong Hua who was about to bow: "You don't have to be polite to me."
"I am in such good health now, all thanks to your care. I really should thank you very much and give you plenty of rewards."
This matter was not a big deal in Qiong Hua's eyes, so naturally she would not ask for any reward. She just smiled and said, "Your Majesty, if you want to reward me, you might as well give me some money."
When Qiong Hua said this, the Queen Mother was stunned.
I didn't expect that this little girl would actually speak.
He turned around and smiled at Song Qingyan: "The people around you are just like you, with real personalities."
Song Qingyan couldn't help but hold her forehead. It was fine if she was the only money-grubber daughter, but how come Qiong Hua has also become a money-grubber now?
Are all the people in the world of immortal cultivation so short of money?
I still have to make money well in the future, otherwise how can I support these two little fairies.
Lu Xingwan: We lack money. We are in the world of immortals and we can’t even have enough to eat.
[How did Sister Qionghua become so greedy? ]
[Sister Qionghua, Wanwan has money, Wanwan will give it to you. Brother Prince wants to give Wanwan three sets of headgear! I also have a gold-made makeup box, I sold it and gave it to Sister Qionghua. ]
Song Qingyan smiled speechlessly.
This little girl is quite good at pleasing others.
But, she hasn't even said she's going to give it to me! She's actually going to give it to her sister Qionghua. I'm really heartbroken!
Song Qingyan smiled and said, "Ms. Qionghua has always been so straightforward."
The Queen Mother was not angry. She took Qionghua's hand and continued, "How about I give you one thousand taels of silver?"
After saying this, the Queen Mother seemed to still feel that it was not enough, and she muttered again: "Isn't it enough? How about one thousand taels of gold? I'll have someone change it into banknotes for you."
Now it was Qiong Hua's turn to be nervous. She was just joking, but she didn't expect the Queen Mother to take it seriously.
And, one thousand taels of gold, my God!
Qiong Hua waved her hands quickly, glanced at Song Qingyan awkwardly, and continued, "Your Majesty the Queen Mother, I was just joking, please don't take it seriously."
"The Imperial Concubine treats me very well. I have enough money."
The Queen Mother refused to let her go, holding her hand and continuing, "Not much. Look at my current state. I seem to be twenty years younger."
"I really can't thank you enough."
Qiong Hua waved her hands anxiously again: "No, no, it's what I should do."
She didn't know much about the story of the royal family, but she did know one word: strict hierarchy.
The Queen Mother looks cheerful now, but what if?
In this palace, apart from the Royal Concubine, whose emotions she could trust, Qiong Hua always remained vigilant towards everyone else.
I have no spiritual power now. If I really get dragged out and beheaded, wouldn’t that be a waste of my cultivation?
[Grandmother, look at how scared you are to my sister Qionghua. She is about to cry! ]
[Sister Qionghua is a thief with a thief's heart but no courage. Don't scare her.]
Song Qingyan nodded, thinking that Lu Xingwan's description was very accurate.
He has the heart of a coward but not the courage.
Song Qingyan quickly spoke up to defend Qiong Hua: "Your Majesty, please stop scaring her. Look at Miss Qiong Hua's appearance. I'm afraid she won't dare to come to Rongle Palace in the future."
"That won't do!" The Queen Mother took Qiong Hua's hand and sat down with her. "To be honest, I really like Qiong Hua."
"Ask Aunt Su. Some time ago, I even thought about adopting Qiong Hua as my adopted daughter."
When Qiong Hua heard this, his eyes widened.
[That won’t work. Sister Qionghua is a fairy. Unlike me, Sister Qionghua is a fairy in flesh.]
[I will definitely leave after my spiritual power is restored. 】
Just as Song Qingyan was about to speak, the Queen Mother continued, "But when I think of Qionghua, who is used to being free, I'm afraid she won't feel comfortable around me."
"Besides," the Queen Mother looked at Song Qingyan again, "you can protect her."
When the Queen Mother said this, Qiong Hua was moved. For a moment, he forgot about the strict hierarchy. He stepped forward, hugged the Queen Mother's neck and said, "The Queen Mother treats Qiong Hua very well."
When the Queen Mother saw her like this, she was stunned for a moment, then patted her on the back, her face full of relief.
After some greetings, Qiong Hua naturally wanted to ask the Queen Mother for her pulse.
"Don't worry, Empress Dowager. You are in good health now. You don't need to use the medicine you took before."
Then he turned to look at Madam Su and said, "Madam, you should advise the Queen Mother to go out more often. Even though it's hot, it's still okay in the morning and evening."
Nanny Su naturally bowed and thanked again and again.
While they were talking, a few eunuchs came in and wanted to take away the carpet at the door.
Qiong Hua said, "It's time to take it away."
Song Qingyan accurately caught the discomfort in Qiong Hua's words and asked hurriedly, "Is there something wrong with this carpet?"
