What method can be used to eliminate the resentment in the palace?

The emperor couldn't help but ask Wu Qing with some curiosity: "After going to the confessional, what exactly are they going to do?"

Wu Qing said seriously, "Learn new ideas and strive to be a new youth."

[What should I do if my child always loves to fight in the palace? He will behave himself after some labor reform.]

[What's the point of banishing someone to the cold palace? There's no fundamental change in their thinking. It's better to send them to productive labor.]

Emperor: "...Are you sure?"

Wu Qing recalled the prison schedule he had seen when watching short videos before and nodded.

The emperor's fingers drummed on the table.

Lady Ji's method sounds too ridiculous.

But if it can really succeed...it's worth a try.

Because of the dream just now, the emperor was more convinced of Ji Guiren's identity.

Yes, he has the dragon energy and merit to protect him, but the concubines in the harem find it difficult to protect themselves under the resentment. If this method can really make some people "redeem themselves", perhaps more than seven people can survive.

The emperor asked again: "You just said that the queen has agreed to this matter?"

Wu Qing responded and looked at him eagerly.

[The Queen also said that if I could convince you, she would let me handle this matter with full authority.]

The emperor frowned again.

The Queen dotes on her so much?!

The draft roster is nothing but a joke.

Concubine Ji only needs to give advice, but the Emperor has a lot to consider.

Where did the money for building the "Confession Hall" come from? And where should the "Confession Hall" be located?

In addition to Xiwen, who else should be selected to join?

If the court officials knew about this, what would they say?

Since the Queen agreed to let Wu Qing make the decision, the Emperor simply began to examine Wu Qing.

The emperor asked, "Where did the money for construction come from?"

Wu Qing said: "The dirty silver I got this time is a total of one thousand taels, plus the one thousand taels I sent to my mother's family, a total of two thousand taels."

The emperor nodded and asked again: "Where is the site?"

Wu Qing had already thought of a location, "I think that perhaps the Confession Hall can be built outside the Qingjing Mosque."

"It is located in the suburbs, quiet and elegant, far away from the hustle and bustle, it is the perfect place to cultivate one's character and confess one's sins."

Qingjing Mosque is a nunnery with a long history. The confession hall is used for atonement and is also a "place for spiritual practice", which is just right for Qingjing Mosque to benefit from it.

The answers to these two questions were good, and the balance in the emperor's heart gradually tilted.

The emperor finally asked, "Besides Xiwen, who else do you want to choose to go to the confessional?"

Wu Qing said sternly, "I dare to select some palace servants who have suffered because of the master's involvement to be the first group of people to enter the confessional hall."

For example, the servants of Concubine Li are still being imprisoned in the Ministry of Punishment and being punished.

Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, the emperor's gaze fell on Wu Qing's face, cold and harsh.

He must have seen what she was thinking.

But this is related to her main task, Wu Qing has to say it.

Anyway, if the emperor is angry, she can just run away... Wu Qing gently touched the purse in her sleeve. This was her confidence.

The eunuch outside was listening through a screen and was trembling with fear.

He thought that Concubine Ji was really brave and was not afraid that the emperor would be angry with her.

——Even the Queen doesn't dare to say such words.

But inside the palace came the emperor's relenting voice: "I agree."

The emperor said in a deep voice: "But this confession hall cannot be built immediately. You can use Lingmei Garden as a pilot for the time being. If the effect is good, I will let the Ministry of Works fully cooperate with you."

Wu Qing breathed a sigh of relief and quickly knelt down to express his gratitude.

The emperor continued, "As for the name of this confessional hall, it is too explicit and may cause unnecessary criticism. You need to choose another one."

Wu Qing hates naming the most.

She hesitated for a moment, then cautiously asked, "Why not call it... Chen Country's First Women's Prison?"

The emperor stared at her expressionlessly, as if he had heard a joke that was not funny.

Wu Qing gave a dry laugh.

Yes, this name is much more obvious than the Confession Hall.

She used up all her brain cells and said with difficulty: "Uh... picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence, leisurely seeing the southern mountain. Why not call it Nanshan Garden?"

[I hope everyone can become indifferent to fame and fortune and live in peace with the world through hard work? ]

Compared with the other two names, the emperor reluctantly approved the name "Nanshan Garden".

He asked Wu Qing to follow the example of the female officials in the Shanggong Bureau and write a detailed set of regulations for his review.

If that doesn't work, then change it again. Only when he nods in agreement can Wu Qing start preparing for the relevant matters of Lingmeiyuan.

—— Her immediate supervisor asked her to make a business plan!

Wu Qing was ready to go, feeling excited.

This also means that in the days to come, Wu Qing will have to come to the Yangxin Palace from time to time.

[Great! This is a good start for completing the main task! ]

[Haha, system, just watch! I am already an independent little girl! ]

When Wu Qing was about to leave, the emperor's eyes fell on her, with a bit of contemplation and trouble.

The emperor asked her, "Noble Lady Ji, can the fate of a person be rewritten?"

The emperor seemed to be troubled by something.

Wu Qing secretly glanced at the memorial in his hand and showed a bit of sympathy.

[Another memorial urging the appointment of a crown prince. How frustrating! ]

[Isn't this a roundabout way of telling the Emperor: "You are at risk of sudden death"? ]

"Your Majesty, things are changing."

Wu Qing nodded vigorously and said confidently: "Everything will get better and better."

[I will definitely go home! ]

…

As soon as Wu Qing stepped over the threshold, she was stopped by Jinxiu, who said that Princess Xiyan had been waiting for her for a long time.

Wu Qing's eyes flashed with surprise: "Is she well? Why did she run away?"

Jinxiu seemed to want to say something but stopped herself.

She said softly, "My lady, you should go and see it with your own eyes. I can't say for sure."

Wu Qing was stunned for a moment, then walked into the small hall where she met guests.

Princess Xiyan was sitting on a stool, holding a cup of warm honey water and sipping it.

Hearing Wu Qing's footsteps, Xi Yan put down the cup, stood up and bowed to her: "Xi Yan greets Concubine Ji, and pays respects to Concubine Ji."

Her young and immature voice exuded a sense of coldness and alienation for no reason.

Wu Qing said: "You are just getting better, if we want to meet, I will come to see you."

Xi Yan lowered her head and said, "I'm fine, please don't worry about me."

Even someone as slow-witted as Wu Qing could sense something was wrong with Xiyan during this brief conversation.

Wu Qing suddenly realized.

——Xiwen and Xiyan have a close relationship. I’m afraid Xiyan came here to ask her for an explanation.

The person who tied the bell must untie it, and some words should be said by Xiwen himself.

She took Princess Xiyan's hand and said, "Let's go to the Ministry of Punishment to see Xiwen."
