Quick Wear: The stupid beauty with multiple pregnancies makes the heirless boss cry

Chapter 621: The Destitute Princess of the Western Factory Supervisor (5)

The little palace maid was so frightened that her legs went limp and she failed to stand up several times. Rong Xi, seeing this, rarely reached out his hand to help her up, then quickly withdrew his hand.

Before the little palace maid could say thank you, she saw the woman had already walked away, so she hurriedly chased after her.

But she didn't expect that she would come to the cold palace. She heard that there was a princess living in the cold palace. Could it be this one?

She didn't dare to say anything. If this person was really the princess, then what did she want her to do? She wouldn't want her to go back and monitor the fifth princess, right?

If that's the case...

"May I ask who the benefactor is? I, Baohuan, am from the Fifth Princess's palace."

Rong Xi sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip, and then said calmly, "You are already a dead man in her eyes, and you still want to go back to the Fifth Princess's Palace to show off?"

The little maid hesitated for a moment before kneeling on the ground.

"Please take me in, my lord. I can't go back to the Fifth Princess' palace. Even if I go back, I'm afraid I'll die. As long as my lord doesn't despise me, I'm willing to serve you like a dog or a horse."

"I saved you, so your life will naturally belong to me in the future, but I want to make it clear in advance that if you betray me, I will make your death even more miserable."

"Thank you for taking me in, Master. I will serve you well and will never betray you. If I break this oath, I will be struck by lightning and die a miserable death."

Rong Xi did not stop her from swearing, even though it was useless. But in the eyes of these people, such an oath could imprison her for life.

"Well, since you're following me, I'll keep you safe from now on."

Rong Xi told her his identity and let her choose a place to rest.

The young palace maid had thought that this cold palace would be in disrepair and that the living quarters would be drafty everywhere, but she had not expected that it was not only clean and spacious, but also had been renovated everywhere.

She was touched and slept well that first night.

.

The next day, rumors began to spread throughout the palace that the Ninth Princess in the Cold Palace was as beautiful as a fairy, her beauty far surpassing that of the Fifth Princess, and she was worthy of being the most beautiful woman in the Xia Li Kingdom.

The fifth princess and her companions happened to pass by the imperial garden and heard a few palace maids saying this.

With just a glance, Bao Jing understood and walked over. A cold voice came out of her mouth, carrying undisguised anger and the majesty of a first-class palace maid.

"You ignorant fools, don't you see the Fifth Princess is here? If you bump into the Fifth Princess because of your recklessness, how many lives do you have to pay for it?"

Her words were as chilling as a cold wind, making people shudder.

Several maids knelt down and begged for mercy, "Please forgive me, Your Highness. We will never do that again."

Jiang Yuchu showed a gentle smile on his face. He walked up to them and personally reached out to help a palace maid to stand up.

"Get up, this is not a big deal."

After that, he pretended to be angry and said to Bao Jing, "You, you just can't change your bad temper. They must be bored, so they are here to say a few words when no one is here. You can lecture them, but don't really punish them."

Several palace maids thanked them repeatedly, truly moved. They all said that the fifth princess was the most considerate, and they also felt it today.

"Thank you, Princess, for sparing my life. We will never dare to do that again."

"Well, Bao Jing said this for your own good. I'm lucky to be here today. If His Majesty passed by here and saw you guys not doing your job properly and gossiping about you in the palace, he wouldn't let it go as easily as he did today."

Several people thanked him before leaving, and Jiang Yuchu took his people back to his own bedroom.

Along the way, she was wondering what the person in the cold palace looked like. Could she really be as beautiful as they said?

Bao Jing saw her master looking depressed all the way and stepped forward to comfort him.

"Your Highness, don't worry about it. I have seen the man in the cold palace a few years ago. He is very dark and thin, not half as good as the princess."

"Tomorrow you will bring the person to me for a look."

"This...is, princess."

.

The news that there was a peerless beauty in the cold palace spread throughout the palace and naturally reached the emperor's ears.

I had just finished reviewing the memorials and when I heard the news I was also very curious about that person.

Although all the princes and princesses in the palace have peerless beauty due to the genes of their mothers, the first one who can be said to be the most beautiful woman in the country is not even her own sister.

"Xiao Dezi, how old is the one in the cold palace this year?"

"Your Majesty, I will be coming of age in March next year."

When Xiao Dezi spread the news in the palace, he asked people to investigate Xiao Xi in the cold palace, for he was afraid that the emperor would suddenly ask about it.

Fortunately, I asked in advance, otherwise I really wouldn’t be able to answer it now.

"Oh, is it this big?"

Xiao Dezi didn't know what His Majesty meant, so he could only agree.

"Bring the person here for me to see."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Xiao Dezi had just gone out to make arrangements when he hurried in. The emperor wanted to ask him why he was so flustered, but from the expression on his face he knew who was coming.

"Your Majesty, the Western Factory Supervisor is waiting outside."

The emperor's expression suddenly changed. "What's the matter?"

"I asked, but Lord Governor did not reply."

The emperor took a deep breath, and after he calmed down, he told Xiao Dezi, "Go and invite the people in, and make some hot tea."

"Yes."

Along with the sound of footsteps, a black figure slowly appeared in the imperial study.

"I have met His Majesty."

The man was wearing a black flying fish suit, embroidered with golden python patterns all over, with a Western Factory badge hung on his leather belt. The cloak behind him was gently lifted by the wind, and his powerful aura made the emperor gasp.

Coupled with his cold eyebrows and his attitude of keeping strangers away, the atmosphere in the entire imperial study was extremely low.

This man was none other than Shen Ze'an, the supervisor of the Western Factory, a powerful chess piece left to him by his father. However, this chess piece had become increasingly disobedient in the past two years, and the emperor already had a plan in mind.

But now is not the right time, so he can only keep him for the time being.

"My dear minister, please stand up. I came here because there has been some progress in dealing with the snow disaster."

"Your Majesty, we have indeed found that many ministers in the court were involved in this incident. The county magistrate who led the incident put up a strong resistance but was beheaded on the spot by the people from the Western Factory. We have also found 580 dan of grain and it is already on its way to the capital."

The emperor's mouth twitched. It happened again. He executed officials directly without any report. Who was the emperor in his position? He could execute officials first and report later. He was really capable.

"My dear minister, you have done a great deed again. What reward do you want?"

"Chengyuan."

"Chengyuan!"

Chengyuan was built by a corrupt official of the previous dynasty. It is said that in order to build Chengyuan, the corrupt official spent all his family wealth to open up a whole hilltop. However, he was reported for embezzlement not long after he moved in, and the garden was taken away by the royal family.

"Why do you want that Cheng Garden, my dear?"
