"Okay, I still have some official business to attend to. Princess Qi, go and offer tea to the Queen first. The reward will be sent to the Prince of Qi's mansion later."

Hearing that the emperor was starting to drive people away, Jiang Qingyu, who had received a lot of rewards, hurriedly took his leave.

"Father, please go ahead and do your work. I will take my leave now. Although state affairs are busy, your health is more important. I hope you take care of yourself."

After saying that, Jiang Qingyu left the Yangxin Palace.

In the palace, the emperor was surprised by Jiang Qingyu's last words of concern for him.

Jiang Qingyu would never say these things before, she would just act silly in front of him.

She always had to issue an order to marry the King of Qi, or she had to force the King of Qi to accompany her.

The emperor asked Eunuch Wang uncertainly, "Is this still Jiang Qingyu? The Prince of Qi didn't go to the bridal chamber and ran to the border, and she didn't make a fuss. Now she's actually caring about others?"

"Your Majesty, it must be the blessing of the Concubine Xian that has made Miss Jiang, no, Princess Qi, become sensible. Your Majesty, this is a good thing.

When the Prince of Qi comes back and sees the different Princess Qi, the two of them will surely treat each other with respect and love.

This is truly the fulfillment of the wish of the Concubine Xian."

The emperor listened to what Eunuch Wang said and agreed, "Well, you are right, I hope Jiang Qingyu has really grown up.

Only if she gets better and better, I will feel less guilty towards Yu'er. That child sacrificed his own happiness for his mother's wish, and I feel bad about it.

Let’s not talk about this any more. Eunuch Wang, please draft an edict for me and instruct me on the affairs of the King of Qi at the border.

At the same time, he brought a message to the King of Qi, asking him to start as a small soldier and not to exercise the privileges of a prince. If he could become a general within two years.

I will allow him to return to Beijing whenever he wants, otherwise he must return immediately after two years."

Eunuch Wang went down to arrange the relevant matters, while the Emperor sat on the dragon throne thinking about the Prince of Qi.

If he can accomplish something at the border and win over the people's hearts, then his time will not be wasted. Otherwise, he should return to the capital and let him pave the way for himself.

After leaving the Yangxin Palace, Jiang Qingyu took Ran Yang to the Queen's Fengyi Palace.

If we don't mention the queen, she would have forgotten that the queen used to treat "Jiang Qingyu" as well as her own daughter, even her own daughter, the Ninth Princess Xiao Jinlin, could not compare to her.

For example, if the two had a conflict, the queen would scold the ninth princess first, and the ninth princess had quarreled with the queen several times because of this.

But this time she did not come to the wedding in person, but sent someone to deliver gifts. The person only said that the Queen had an old illness and could not get out of bed because of a headache.

Only the fool "Jiang Qingyu" couldn't see it, and thought that the Queen Mother really liked her. Little did he know that some people's love is called "overpraising".

Whenever "Jiang Qingyu" wanted to give up because Xiao Jingyu ignored her, the Queen Mother would always praise Xiao Jingyu.

He encouraged Jiang Qingyu to be brave and bold, and said that it would be easy for a girl to pursue a boy, and as long as she was proactive enough, Xiao Jingyu would definitely fall in love with her.

As the current Jiang Qingyu, she can understand what the Queen means. She appears to like "Jiang Qingyu", but in reality, that may not be the case.

The King of Qi was very outstanding and was very much liked by the emperor, who even went against ancestral teachings to bestow him with a title.

If he married a virtuous wife with a distinguished family background to be his good wife, I'm afraid her son Xiao Jingyi would never have the chance to succeed.

After thinking this through, Jiang Qingyu was no longer in a hurry to serve tea to the Queen. Although Jiang Qingyu had seen the scenery of the Imperial Garden many times in his memory, seeing it with his own eyes was even more shocking.

This palace is really huge, just the distance from the Hall of Mental Cultivation to the Fengyi Palace.

Jiang Qingyu took Ran Yang and walked, stopping and starting, for more than half an hour. Jiang Qingyu could only sigh that the people in the palace had great physical strength.

The emperor, empress and some who were rewarded had to ride on sedan chairs when they were tired, but everyone else could only rely on their own two legs.

Just walking in the corridor every day was tiring enough, and they were actually engaging in mental palace fighting. Jiang Qingyu couldn't do such a thing.

I just want to eat and sleep every day, and then do something when I have time. Isn’t this better than relying on a man to live?

Finally they arrived at Fengyi Palace. The two palace maids at the gate saw that it was Jiang Qingyu and did not stop them. They bowed and saluted.

Jiang Qingyu and Ran Yang went in and arrived in front of the hall.

The maid in front of the palace stopped Jiang Qingyu, saluted and said, "Princess Qi, please wait a moment. I will report to the Queen that you are here. The Queen may still be dressing up. Please wait here for a moment."

Jiang Qingyu nodded and agreed, "Okay, I'll wait here, thank you for your help."

The maid came to the palace and saw the queen dressing up. She bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the Princess of Qi is here and is waiting outside the palace."

The queen looked in the mirror and touched her hair with her hands. She was very satisfied with her hairstyle today.

He said casually, "She came alone? Wasn't she angry when you stopped her outside?"

"Your Highness, she did come alone. I told you that you were dressing up, and she didn't make a noise. She just said she was waiting outside."

After hearing what the maid said, the queen wondered, could the rumors be true? Did the King of Qi really run away on the wedding night?

But Jiang Qingyu was able to hold back and not make trouble? He originally wanted to leave her alone for a while, so that she would lose her temper.

In this way, she could spread the news in the capital. After the marriage, would the King of Qi be linked to Jiang Qingyu?

In this way, he used the King of Qi's opponent to his advantage and ruined his reputation. After all, two different people can sleep in the same bed.

But now she didn't have any temper at all, which made her very strange.

Out of curiosity about Jiang Qingyu, the Queen ordered, "Take her to the outer hall. I will be there in a moment."

"Yes, Madam. I will take my leave."

The little palace maid who received instructions from the Queen came out of the palace and told Jiang Qingyu what the Queen meant.

"Princess Qi, your Highness is still dressing up. Please follow me to the outer hall and wait."

Jiang Qingyu nodded in agreement and followed the little palace maid to the outer hall.

Ran Yang was left outside. The Queen's palace was not a place for a little maid like her who sold herself to the Duke's Mansion to enter.

Even though her daughter was the Princess of Qi, she didn't dare to go in without the Queen's special approval.

Entering the outer hall, the little palace maid brought snacks and tea to Jiang Qingyu, then stepped aside.

After chatting with the emperor in the Yangxin Palace for a long time and walking for more than half an hour to the Fengyi Palace, the breakfast I had was almost digested.

Looking at the extremely exquisite snacks in front of her, Jiang Qingyu felt a little hungry, so she picked up a piece and started eating.

"Hmm~ This tastes really good. I've eaten a lot of snacks outside, but the Queen's snacks are still the best.

Xiaolan, does your Majesty have any more? Can you give me some to eat later?"

Looking at Jiang Qingyu's bulging mouth, Xiaolan, the little palace maid who had just brought Jiang Qingyu in, covered her mouth and smiled.

"Of course you can, Princess Qi. Her Majesty has instructed before that you can eat as much as you like, and you can take it away if you want."

Jiang Qingyu listened to Xiaolan's words and ate the snack in her hand with greater peace of mind. If she felt choked, she took a few more sips of tea.

The tea was good, and the guest seemed quite relaxed and at no time did he seem anxious waiting for someone.
