Chapter 405 Visit to the Shen Residence

My heart is also full of worries.

[Sister Jinxin is being too self-deprecating. Our sister Jinyu is not bad either.]

Jinxin still looked uneasy.

Jinyu walked up to her, took her arm, and said, "With the blessing of the queen and the princess, I will be safe."

"Besides, I think Wei Cheng is a man of good character, so there won't be any problems."

Hearing Jinyu say this, Jinxin heaved a long sigh, put aside her prejudice, and said with a smile: "Since Jinyu has said so, then I will see how Commander Wei performs."

"Okay." Jinyu smiled and pulled Jinxin to talk.

After saying this, Jinyu turned to look at Song Qingyan, waiting for her next words.

Song Qingyan smiled and said, "Did you hear what Jinxin said just now?"

Jinyu nodded.

"Go to the Shen residence and tell them that Marquis Dingguo has sent a letter. There is also a letter from Shen Xiao. I want you to deliver it."

Jinyu still nodded and listened seriously to what Song Qingyan said next.

"Mrs. Shen should have seen Yunzhu. You just need to find out whether Mrs. Shen has seen Yunzhu outside the palace."

"Your Majesty is suspicious about this Yunzhu..." Jinyu asked doubtfully, but didn't know how to say it.

Song Qingyan also shook her head: "I don't know, let's go first!"

Now, many of the Queen's affairs came to her at once, and it was really difficult to sort them out.

In this case, just keep investigating one by one, and you will eventually find a clue and uncover everything.

It was probably almost three o'clock at this time. If Song Qingyan had not been really anxious, she would not have sent Jinyu out of the palace in such a hurry.

After finally finishing the important things, Song Qingyan lay back heavily and breathed a long sigh of relief.

I lay down on my bed, finally feeling at ease.

Lu Xingwan also lay down.

[Ah~ My own bed is still more comfortable! ]

[But to be honest, this isn't my bed anymore. This is clearly my mother's bed.]

[I wonder which room my mother will choose for me? ]

[I have to stay close to Sister Qionghua...]

The sound that reached Song Qingyan's ears became lower and lower. Song Qingyan turned her head and saw that the little girl's eyes could no longer be closed.

Song Qingyan simply closed her eyes and prepared to take a rest.

Looking at the very tired mother and daughter lying on the bed, Jinxin felt a surge of heartache. She covered them with a blanket and then turned around and went outside.

Jinyu received an order from her own queen and rushed out of the palace.

The eunuch on duty at the palace gate naturally asked a few questions: "How come Miss Jinyu wants to leave the palace after noon? Is there something urgent?"

Jinyu smiled, handed the purse she had prepared in advance to the eunuch in front of her, and said with a smile: "It's not an urgent matter, but our queen is always thinking about it, so I thought of going there first."

"It's my Lord Marquis. He sent a letter from the border. Our Queen thought that the Queen's eldest brother is with the Lord Marquis now, so she asked me to go to the Shen Mansion and ask Lord and Madam Shen if they have anything to tell them."

When the young eunuch heard that it was both the Marquis of Dingguo's matter and the Empress's mother's family's matter, he immediately took it seriously: "In this case, it is my fault for delaying Miss Jinyu. Miss, please go quickly!"

"Go early and come back early, don't delay the palace gates from being locked."

Jinyu went straight to the Shen Mansion.

Knowing that it was someone from the Imperial Concubine's entourage, Madam Shen hurried out to greet them in person.

Logically speaking, Jinyu was a maid, so there was no need for the Empress' mother to come and greet her in person. However, Madam Shen had been to the palace and met the Imperial Concubine several times, and she had both respect and love for her in her heart.

Therefore, she also respected the maids around her.

Jinyu naturally bowed politely, then got straight to the point and explained the purpose of her visit.

When she heard the news from Shen Xiao, Madam Shen's smile widened: "The Royal Concubine is really thoughtful."

"This Xiao brother has never been a careful person. He hasn't written to us for a year or two. It's only because we are with the Marquis that we can know a few words from him."

Mrs. Shen only had these two children. Not only has Shen Ning entered the palace, but she is not even that close to her anymore. Instead, she has put all her passion on Shen Xiao.

"There is nothing worth worrying about at home. I just hope that the queen will remind him to be a good servant by the side of the marquis."

Jinyu smiled and said, "I guessed that Madam would say that, but Madam is worried, so I still have to let Madam know."

"I heard that the queen just returned to the palace today. It must have been hard on the way."

Jinyu took over the conversation naturally and continued, "Our queen said that the Empress was the one who worked hard. Our queen accompanied His Majesty out for fun, but all the affairs in the palace were handed over to the Empress."

"That child," Mrs. Shen said with a hint of sadness on her face, "has never liked to go out since she was little."

"Seeing how knowledgeable Her Majesty is, I thought the Empress must have traveled all over the world!" Jinyu said in pretended surprise.

After saying this, Jinyu started a conversation with Mrs. Shen, and the two of them started chatting.

Mrs. Shen shook her head: "I am sorry to make you laugh. Our girl is the one who doesn't like to go out. She just stays at home and reads some books."

"I don't even attend banquets in the capital, let alone go out of the capital."

Jinyu continued to ask: "Then I wonder how the queen knew Miss Yueran and the previous Miss Yunzhu?"

Now it was Madam Shen's turn to be surprised: "Miss, are you talking about Miss Yue Ran who is accompanying the Majesty now and... and Miss Yun Zhu from before?"

Jinyu nodded, affirming what Mrs. Shen said.

"Aren't those two girls assigned to the Empress by the palace?"

Jinyu then acted as if she had suddenly realized something, clapped her hands and said with a smile: "It was I who was confused. It was indeed the one assigned to the Majesty by the palace."

"But I heard that Miss Yueran and Miss Yunzhu were acquainted with the Empress outside the palace!"

Madam Shen still had a puzzled look on her face. Seeing Jinyu's firm expression, she frowned and shook her head: "Maybe the young lady heard it wrongly. Ning... Madam always went out with me, so the people she knew should be known by me."

After hearing this, Jinyu smiled embarrassedly and said, "Maybe I made a mistake and made Madam laugh."

"What's the big deal!" Madam Shen held Jinyu's hand and liked her more and more. "You usually serve the Royal Concubine. Although the Royal Concubine is very kind to you, there are many complicated things outside. It is common for you to hear things wrongly."

There was no doubt about Jinyu at all.
