Chapter 412: Xi Que’s Happiness

Kunning Palace——

“Your Majesty…”

Xi Que was wearing a piece of foreign fabric that had just been imported by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which was very dazzling. She stepped forward quickly: “The person who destroyed the sedan chair… has been caught…”

“Where is he?”

“Bring him up!”

A concubine wearing green clothes that was not as gorgeous as Xi Que was brought in.

She was only pretty, with sallow skin. In the golden autumn of September, she was only wearing a thin gray gown. Her eyes were too guilty to look up, and her hands were nervously grasping her clothes: "My concubine...I have seen the Queen Mother."

She knelt on the ground, and before Jiang Xinyue could speak, her body was shaking non-stop, crying and begging for mercy: "Queen Mother, spare my life, I will never dare to do it again, Queen, spare my life..." She was

so soft-hearted that there was no need to interrogate her. Jiang Xinyue waved her hand and asked Jiang Chuan to take the person away. She was crying and annoying.

Shuangjiang only felt that since her concubine was named the Queen Mother and had been studying with the emperor for a long time, her aura of majesty without anger had become more and more fierce, and she was more and more like the emperor.

She folded her hands on her belly, bent forward and said, "Your Highness, she is the daughter of a small county magistrate. When she entered the palace, she was a concubine. After a few days of being favored, she was promoted to Zhaoyi. She has no grudge against you. It is said that when the late emperor and empress were alive, they still had hope and everyone had the opportunity to be promoted. Since you... they have lost hope. When they saw the side hall of the Yanxi Palace collapsed that day, they thought of sawing your sedan chair."

Xi Que was angry: "She is a powerless little Zhaoyi. "Yuan Zhaoyi, how can you touch our queen's things?"

Shuangjiang also seemed a little angry: "Yuan Zhaoyi has a beautiful maid by her side. She was originally brought from the Yuan family. They thought that if Yuan Zhaoyi got pregnant, she could be offered to the emperor to win his heart. Now that she has no hope of winning the emperor's heart, she was offered to our palace to be the eunuch who is responsible for carrying the sedan chair for you, the queen."

The little maid was also forced. The little eunuch had a hobby of abusing people. When the little maid was rescued, there was not a single piece of good skin on her body.

Xiao Xiangzi was in charge of the internal affairs of Kunning Palace. He was to blame for the appearance of such a person under his command. He knelt in the yard to apologize!

Xi Que looked at her master's face and pleaded cautiously in a weak voice, "Your Highness, Xiao Xiangzi punished all the eunuchs who lived with the young eunuch. In front of all the palace maids in Kunning Palace, he broke his arm and leg tendons and threw him to the mass grave, leaving him to die. The palace maids were trembling with fear. No one would dare to betray your Highness in the short term."

"Your Majesty, if you are really angry, you might as well vent your anger by beating Xiao Xiangzi a dozen times!"

Shuangjiang thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty, you are in a high position now and are busy with government affairs. There are only Xiao Xiangzi and Nanny Xiang in the palace. There are really not enough manpower. If some people could be transferred from the Shanggong Bureau, this kind of situation will surely not happen again."

Fang Rumeng, who was promoted by the Queen, is now the Shanggong Fang who is in charge of the six palaces and twenty-four departments. She has many female officials under her, so it is not difficult for the Queen to get a few people.

"Then I'll leave this matter to you and Xiao Xiangzi. Concubine Fang will not make it difficult for you. Go and select a few trustworthy people. I believe in your vision."

Especially Shuangjiang, who has begun to behave like a head of a palace. In the future, the internal affairs of Kunning Palace will be handed over to her and Xiao Xiangzi.

Xijue, her personality is not suitable for staying in the palace for too long. She has someone she likes, so it's better to let her be free outside the palace.

That afternoon, Shuangjiang brought the four female historians of the Shang Palace Bureau into Kunning Palace.

"I am the Spring Equinox."

"I am the Summer Solstice."

"I am the Autumn Lotus."

"I am the Winter Snow."

"I have seen the Queen Mother!"

All four of them have a rounded and graceful appearance. They are not beautiful, but they look very comfortable to look at. They are also very friendly when they smile.

Fang Rumeng said, "This is specially cultivated by this subordinate for the Queen Mother. The four of them are proficient in arithmetic and are very smart. They will definitely help the Queen Mother share her worries."

In the evening, Jiang Xinyue found Xi Que to talk.

"Guardian Meng will be twenty years old in a year. The General of the Cavalry intends to have him join the army and serve as the deputy general of the general. What do you think?"

Xi Que's face suddenly turned red behind her ears: "What do you mean, what do I think? I just want to serve your majesty well. I don't want anything else."

"You are still being stubborn at this time. Do you think I don't know that several guards brought you food, but you only accepted it from Guardian Meng. If you don't like him, then what do you mean?"

"The pear blossom hairpin on your head was carved by him himself, right?"

"On your hand..." "Your

Majesty!"

Xi Que stomped her feet, and she seemed a little shy.

"You should express your opinion soon so that I can prepare your dowry. In this way, you can marry him before he joins the army. When he becomes a deputy general, I can confer you a noble lady. In the future, you can come to the palace during the holidays, and we can talk every now and then. It won't be like we will never see each other again, right?"

Jiang Xinyue had already sent someone to inform the Meng family. The old lady was of humble origins, so she was naturally happy for her grandson to marry the most useful female official of the Queen Mother.

Meng Qingyu's sister seemed to want to interfere in her brother's marriage. She was also married to a deputy general in the army through the matchmaking of the General of the Cavalry. The deputy general's family had an orphan of a former general in the army, who was adopted by the deputy general. Meng Qingyu's brother-in-law wanted to match them up, so his sister acted as a matchmaker, but was rejected by the old lady of the Meng family and Meng Qingyu.

Although the elder sister in the family made her own decisions, the grandmother was a clear-headed person and listened to her grandson's ideas in everything.

Jiang Xinyue believed that with Xi Que's fierce fighting power, it was more than enough to deal with a sister who was already married.

"Your Majesty, do you think I'm stupid and don't want me anymore?"

Xi Que's eyes turned red and tears fell. She sat at Jiang Xinyue's feet, hugged her legs and cried: "I was wrong, I will return all the things to him, I don't want to get married, I'm scared, I don't want to leave Your Majesty..."

She grew up with the Majesty since she was a child. The Majesty made all the decisions for her. She was stupid, and only when the Majesty supported her behind her, she was not afraid of anything.

"How could I not want you? You are just like my own sister. I hope you are happy so much, how could I not want you?"

Jiang Xinyue touched her head: "Xi Que, you are different from Shuang Jiang. Shuang Jiang was sold into the palace, and she would be sold again if she left the palace, so she didn't want to leave the palace, let alone marry. Your parents are both outside the palace. When you followed me into the palace, your parents almost cried their eyes out. Now, someone has promised me that he will treat you well for the rest of his life, never take concubines, and make you happy for the rest of your life, and you like him. I hope you will have children and grandchildren in your life and be happy. Do you understand my intentions?"
