Guanghua Hall.
Aunt Qu has come back.
"What happened?"
"Aunt, Xiaoqiu was beaten by Concubine De's maid." Xiaoxia told the whole story with red eyes.
Aunt Qu narrowed her eyes and asked, "Are you guys talking nonsense?"
Fiona choked up and said, "Why would the servants gossip about this in front of you?"
At most, they would talk about it in the room when it was late at night, but who would dare to say it in public? Walls have ears, they already knew it.
It was obvious that Concubine De was making a false accusation.
Fortunately, Your Majesty believes in them.
Your Majesty, you are such a great man. I misunderstood you before.
Woo woo woo.
Aunt Qu nodded: "I know."
She said that today when she went to the Imperial Household Department, she was stopped by the Imperial Household Department and talked to for a long time.
Moreover, when this happened, he didn't report it to her again, but told her directly...
She glanced at 깊께夏, with some suspicion in her eyes: "Why don't you go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to find me?"
Xiao Xia also felt wronged: "I wanted to go, but the Empress Defei blocked my way intentionally or unintentionally. I was anxious and couldn't go back to Guanghua Palace."
It seems that there are also some rules for stopping them.
"I know. Let Xiaoqiu have a good rest." Aunt Qu looked at Xiaoqiu's face. Although it was swollen, it was not serious.
In the palace, gods and fairies fight each other, and creatures always suffer some injustice.
Qiu also understood that it was good enough to get away today.
Aunt Qu asked again: "Where is 께깇?"
"Follow your Majesty to Guanghua Palace." Xia was also worried, afraid that the emperor would embarrass her.
Aunt Qu just smiled.
Will the emperor be embarrassed? The emperor was so distressed that he rushed over without even changing his clothes when he heard that 께깇 and Defei had met 깊.
Your Majesty has never cared so much about anyone, and you don't know whether it is good for me or not.
The emperor was still wearing heavy clothes.
Eunuch Li and An Jiu helped him change into casual clothes.
The emperor exhaled.
[The clothes are so heavy.] 】
An Jiu saw that his lips were dry, so he poured him a cup of tea.
The emperor drank a little, and asked An Jiu casually, "Did Concubine De bully you?"
An Jiu didn't know how to answer.
If you say they didn't bully her, they were targeting her. If you say they bullied her, she was Consort De, so they only said a few words to her, and Xiao Qiu was the one who got slapped.
The only one who got hurt in this incident was Xiao Qiu, who was inexplicably targeted. If the emperor hadn't come today, she might have been slapped in the face.
But didn’t Fukuko say that if you don’t soak in the well, it won’t be considered bullying?
So An Jiu shook his head: "If it's Qiu."
The emperor looked at her and said nothing for a long time.
【really……】
An Jiu paused.
What indeed?
【께깇 became a thorn in their eyes. 】
[Defei, although she looks virtuous, is not as good as Shufei. 】
【just in case……】
The emperor looked at Anjiu again and said to Eunuch Li, "Go and call Aunt Qu."
Not long after, Aunt Qu came.
The emperor said: "Guanghua Palace is too old and not worth serving. So, from now on, I will be the head aunt and manage Guanghua Palace together with you, Aunt Qu."
An Jiu paused.
ah?
I got a promotion two days ago, and now I’m getting promoted again?
Of course Aunt Qu had no objection, because she knew that 께깇 was not in competition with her.
Aunt Qu smiled and said, "I am worried. I have a lot of things to do. From now on, I will be responsible for serving Your Majesty, and the other servants will take care of it."
The emperor looked at An Jiu: "What do you mean?"
[If you don't want to be my concubine... I can choose the highest official position among my slaves. 】
[From now on, they won’t dare to embarrass you easily.] 】
The emperor shook his head, moved by himself.
[I am really a lovesick person.] 】
An Jiu: "..."
Seeing that An Jiu didn't respond, the emperor suddenly became a little angry.
[What is she looking at with those silly eyes? 】
[Like a big fool.] 】
[By the way, what do I like about her? 】
[Could it be... that I just like fools? 】
The emperor was shocked by his own thoughts.
An Jiu hurriedly said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
The dog emperor was almost moved.
However, when Aunt Qu brought the exclusive clothes of the head aunt and An Jiu put them on, the emperor smiled again.
“It’s a bit old-fashioned.”
An Jiu smiled "..."
Not as old as you!
Aunt Qu smiled and said, "You may be the youngest aunt in charge in this palace."
Eunuch Li said, "It's a bit eye-catching."
The emperor nodded.
An Jiu: "..."
In fact, she thought it was pretty good, because the clothes of the head aunt seemed to be of better quality, and she was a high-ranking official...
But the emperor was obviously a person who judged by appearance. He smiled and said, "Take it off, or wear the palace maid's clothes."
The other two also nodded.
An Jiu: "..."
She really doesn't mind being old-fashioned at all!
then……
An Jiu changed into the clothes of a palace maid again.
Fuzi is very happy.
"You finally changed back. That outfit really doesn't suit you."
An Jiu rolled his eyes: "Which is more important, clothes or being an official?"
께 Fuzi imagined what he would be like as the chief eunuch...
To be honest: "Well, clothes are more important."
An Jiu sighed.
But she didn't expect the emperor to be so idle, because soon, the Ministry of Internal Affairs received news that they had to change the clothes of the palace maids and the head aunts today because the emperor was tired of them.
The head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs was completely puzzled: "What is this for?"
"I don't know. His Majesty thinks the clothes of the maids and the head aunt are not good-looking. He said that it affects his mood."
The head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs: "..."
Okay.
Your Majesty must be upset by the recent war in the northwest, so let's change it.
Aunt Qu even came to keep an eye on it.
The head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs was called Qiao Dong, who was also a very good person. He raised his orchid finger and said, "Wow, you are so old, but you still love beauty so much?"
Aunt Qu looked at him and said, "Why? No?"
She picks the colors herself.
"Your Majesty thinks our clothes are old-fashioned and dull, let's change them into something brighter."
Qiao Dong nodded.
When Aunt Qu was about to leave, she suddenly turned back and said to him, "Yes, I came to the Ministry of Internal Affairs today and talked to me for a long time. But when I got back, I found out that Concubine De had a conflict with the maids in Guanghua Palace, but they didn't tell me. Do you think this is true?"
Qiao Dong was stunned: "There is such a thing?"
Aunt Qu exhaled: "After all, this country belongs to your Majesty. No matter how powerful the women in the palace are, can they surpass your Majesty?"
Qiao Dong was also very smart and nodded immediately: "I understand, I will take care of it."
Just two days after losing her short-lived official position, An Jiu became the head aunt again and put on new clothes.
Different from those of palace maids, they are more refined, neither old-fashioned nor too young.
The emperor was satisfied this time.
An Jiu seemed a little touched, but didn't know how to be touched. It was just like in a modern idol drama, where the boss was afraid that the girl's feet would get cold, so he gave her a pair of heating insoles, which made her feel warm, but also seemed a little weird.
At the same time, after the tyrant gave a clue last time, the emperor asked Jiang Sheng to investigate, and soon, the spy chief Jiang Sheng locked on several suspects.
"One is Eunuch Li, but I don't think this old guy can be one. If he was, we would have been finished long ago. The remaining three are Liu Chen, the eunuch by the side of the former Jingwang Mother, and Han Yun, the eunuch by the side of Jingwang Mother. But after Jingwang Mother passed away, all her subordinates followed Duanwang Mother, Concubine Shu, and the other one is Qiao Dong, the current chief steward of the Ministry of Internal Affairs."
These three people all entered the palace at about the same time as Wang De, and they were about the same age and height at the time, and they also loved to apply white powder, so each of them looked very suspicious.
They didn't avoid talking to An Jiu, and An Jiu was also thinking about these people. Except for the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, An Jiu had never seen the others.
I wonder if the tyrant can recognize it.
However, the emperor had no intention of asking the tyrant to admit his guilt.
