"Then Your Majesty, please let Eunuch Hou lead the way! Or Your Majesty can lead the way yourself." Zhou Qiongyue was almost mad at this point, and she had no idea of the relationship between monarch and subject at all.
The emperor looked at his cousin, who looked like she was ready to take action at any moment, and said, "I will personally take you to choose."
"Then Your Majesty, please ask more people to help me move! I came to the palace in a hurry and didn't bring enough people with me." Zhou Qiongyue didn't care what the emperor was thinking at this time. After all, the Empress Dowager was still there!
The emperor doesn't dare to do anything to her for the time being. As for the fact that the empress dowager is no longer around, well, she's already living a miserable life now, so how can he take care of her for that long?
When the emperor heard Zhou Qiongyue say this, his hands trembled involuntarily, but when he saw his cousin about to roll up her sleeves, he could only shout outside, "Eunuch Hou, come in and bring someone to accompany me and Princess Fu'an to the private storehouse."
When Eunuch Hou heard the sound, he immediately brought a group of people in. They followed the two masters respectfully. The emperor walked in front, and Zhou Qiongyue walked angrily behind.
The emperor walked for a while and then stopped to wait for his cousin.
The emperor saw that his cousin had no intention of paying attention to him, so he touched his nose and said, "I have already asked my cousin to go to the private storehouse to pick out an apology. Please don't be angry."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Qiongyue just rolled her eyes at the emperor, not trying to understand what he meant at all.
Eunuch Hou, who was standing behind, happened to see this scene. He wished he could disappear right there, so he simply lowered his head, walked slower, and put some distance between the people behind him and the two masters.
The emperor had been treated coldly by his cousin along the way, but when he arrived at the private storehouse, his attitude became even better, "Cousin, go in and choose!"
Now that she was here, Zhou Qiongyue had no intention of being polite with the emperor. She turned to Eunuch Hou and the others and said politely, "Could you please bring your men and follow closely?"
Even if Zhou Qiongyue was angry with the emperor, she would not vent her anger on the people serving the emperor. There was no need for that.
Eunuch Hou immediately agreed and hurriedly took his men to follow.
He couldn't afford to offend this princess. He had never seen Princess Fu'an get unhappy and even dared to show the emperor her displeasure. He really couldn't afford to offend her at all.
As soon as Zhou Qiongyue entered, it felt like she had entered a shopping mall in her previous life. The difference was that today she could shop for free, which was even more exciting.
Anyway, Zhou Qiongyue didn't pick the right ones when she went in, she only picked the expensive ones. She had accumulated experience over the years, plus the vision cultivated by the original owner.
Especially since she had known the emperor for so many years, she would take whatever he liked. Zhou Qiongyue didn't care whether she liked it or not, and her main goal was to harm others and not benefit herself.
Every time Zhou Qiongyue pointed something, the eunuch Hou's heart would beat violently. In the end, eunuch Hou almost knelt down to Zhou Qiongyue.
Zhou Qiongyue didn't care about that. Since the emperor could sleep, she should be the one who couldn't.
The people brought in at the end were all full, and Zhou Qiongyue picked a few more before giving up. Her tone was quite regretful, "That's all for this time!"
When Eunuch Hou heard Zhou Qiongyue's ending voice, it was like hearing the sound of nature. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and hurried forward to lead the way for Princess Fu'an.
Now he just wanted to send this ancestor away as soon as possible.
Zhou Qiongyue followed behind Eunuch Hou, her hands not empty. On the way out, she tried her best to catch any fish that she liked that had slipped through the net.
Eunuch Hou... I don't know if the emperor will feel sorry for him and kill him.
Zhou Qiongyue finally felt relieved after receiving so many good things. She even had the energy to joke around. "Your master doesn't feel bad about it, but your father-in-law does."
Eunuch Hou... "Princess, you're joking. I haven't been moving around enough, and my health is failing, so I'm sweating more."
When Zhou Qiongyue heard what Eunuch Hou said, she smiled reservedly. She did not expose Eunuch Hou's clumsy statement. Instead, she said with concern: "Then Eunuch Hou, please take care of your health."
Eunuch Hou could only smile and thank him, not daring to make any unnecessary movements. "Thank you, Princess. I will pay attention to it."
He has met many people in his life following the emperor, but the one he admires most is this master.
As soon as Zhou Qiongyue and Eunuch Hou went out, they saw the emperor waiting outside.
As for why the emperor didn't go in, he was afraid that he would be heartbroken. As for why he didn't leave, he was reluctant to leave because the treasures inside were all his.
When the emperor saw Zhou Qiongyue's hands full of things, his first reaction was to frown, "There are so many servants! How can it be my cousin's turn to do it herself?"
Zhou Qiongyue would not be bought by the emperor's little verbal concern. "It's okay, they can't get it. It's fine for this subject to take it myself."
After hearing what his cousin said, the emperor's eyelids twitched even more violently.
"Your Majesty's apology, I have received it. I do not like the eldest princess. If Your Majesty insists on bringing her before me to be an eyesore, I have no habit of not beating women."
After Zhou Qiongyue emphasized this, she added, "Your Majesty, please send someone to escort me out of the palace!"
The people around wanted to disappear on the spot. After hearing such a fatal thing, they were all worried about their lives.
The emperor rubbed his brows and could only promise, "I understand."
The emperor felt that he would never do such a stupid thing again. It was indeed because his cousin had not gone crazy for too long, and he had forgotten what she looked like when she was crazy, and he couldn't help it.
The emperor felt that even if his mother was no longer around, he probably wouldn't dare do anything to his cousin. After all, they were about the same age. If his cousin went to complain, he probably wouldn't even dare to die.
"Your humble servant takes her leave!" Zhou Qiongyue felt relieved now, and politely bowed to the emperor.
After Zhou Qiongyue left, the emperor watched his favorite treasures being carried out one by one. His eyes grew wider and wider, and the eunuch next to him knelt on the ground.
"What's going on?" The emperor remembered that his cousin didn't like these calligraphy and paintings very much before, so why did she choose all his favorites this time?
"Your Majesty, these were all personally selected by Princess Fu'an, and she spent a long time carefully choosing them." Eunuch Hou added in his heart that it might be that Princess Fu'an specially picked the ones that were the emperor's favorites.
The emperor knew what was going on after hearing this, and immediately murmured, "This cousin is really not afraid of me holding a grudge!"
The emperor laughed again after he finished speaking. He was not afraid of him holding a grudge against someone like his cousin who just wanted to go fishing in the mansion.
He could only turn a blind eye and went directly to the harem, asking Eunuch Hou to arrange someone to escort Zhou Qiongyue out of the palace.
But when the emperor saw the list later, his heart still ached. He had really suffered a big loss this time.
Even if he were to give the eldest princess a dowry, he wouldn't be able to give her so many treasures.
The emperor could hide the fact that Zhou Qiongyue had entered the palace and made trouble from others, but he could not hide it from the retired emperor and the empress dowager.
The Emperor heard this and just smiled, but said nothing. He didn't want to get involved in this kind of thing. One was his biological son, and the other was his adopted son who had just saved his life. It wouldn't be appropriate for him to take sides with either.
