"I didn't let them notify you." Emperor Huiwen said: "I know that you value them, and you will be anxious and worried once you learn that something happened to them. But at that time, you were doing your best to suppress the rebels. If this disturbed your mind, , if you are not careful, how can you let me bear the consequences?"

After hearing the words, Qingyun walked to Emperor Huiwen in a few steps, took his arm and apologized: "I'm sorry, father, I was also anxious for a moment. After all, they have been with me since I was a child, taking care of me and protecting me meticulously, just like family members;

Now, Lan Jue is in a coma because of my serious injury, Long Ying has gone through many hardships and almost died in a foreign land, Zike and the others have been through life and death several times, and the people staying in the palace are also restless. I feel really sad and blame myself, so I am a little out of control emotionally. Can you please forgive your daughter this time?"

"You..."

He stretched out his hand and gently scratched Qingyun's straight little nose. Emperor Huiwen smiled fondly and helplessly and said: "I still don't understand my Jiu'er's character? How can I care about you? But I won't do this again in the future. , if I hurt you, I will feel bad, remember?"

Twisting Qingyun's hair hanging down by her cheeks behind her ears, Emperor Huiwen glanced at Mo Xuan provocatively. Sure enough, he saw his expression change instantly, and felt very unhappy.

You brat, you want to take away my Jiu'er, you don't even have a window!

Because Emperor Huiwen had his back to everyone, no one saw his special look except Leng Yi, who looked at the childlike Emperor Huiwen and remembered how jealous he was when Emperor Huiwen clamored for Jiuer to sing and dance on his birthday. Looking like this, a playful smile flashed across Leng Yi's lips.

"Father is the best, I promise I will never do it again!" Qingyun held Emperor Huiwen's arm and acted coquettishly.

Emperor Huiwen smiled heartily and said, "Now do you know that your father is the best?"

"Father, you know how to tease Jiu'er." A shy cloud flew out of Qing Yun's red face, as crystal clear as jade like a water lily that quietly bloomed after a summer rain.

"Okay, okay, I won't tease Jiu'er anymore."

Jiu'er was his hope and his caring little cotton-padded jacket. As long as Jiu'er was there, all worries would disappear. Emperor Huiwen smiled and said, "I know you never treat them as servants. So be it, Zi." Ke, Yunfei and Yunfeng have already joined the Ziyi Guards and will discuss their merits and rewards later. Honghu managed the Luoxia Palace in an orderly manner, so he granted her the title of fifth-grade female official. She will still be responsible for the affairs of the Luoxia Palace and assist in the affairs of the Luoxia Palace. Concubine Yu manages the harem, as for Lan Jue, Green Po, Long Ying and Wu Ying, you can think of how to reward them so that they can have a decent status and get married happily in the future, what do you think?"

"Father is still thoughtful." Qingyun nodded in agreement: "They are not young anymore, and it is time to pay attention to the people who will accompany them throughout their lives."

For a moment, everyone was a little confused. Wasn't it talking about Lan Jue's injury during the siege of Juechen Palace? Why did it suddenly turn to the important matter of several people's marriage?

"I would like to thank the Emperor and the Ninth Princess for their kindness." Zike suddenly knelt on the ground, lowered his head and said, "I just want to serve the Ninth Princess for the rest of my life, and I won't do what he wants anymore."

Everyone looked stunned, then thought that it was normal for Zike, as Qingyun's personal maid, to think like this.

Qingyun and a few people who were familiar with the internal situation turned to look at Sima Qi who was standing aside. As expected, they saw his sad look and couldn't help but secretly sigh.

"We'll talk about this later, Zike, you should get up first." Fifth brother and Zike are both people Qingyun cares about, and she sincerely hopes they can be happy.

As soon as Zike stood up, Long Ying was about to kneel down when Qingyun quickly stopped her with her sharp eyes. She was not unaware of Long Ying's affection for her, and she was also clear about Yunfeng's affection for Long Ying: "I am just I hope you can all have your own happiness, so that I can rest assured. Since you haven’t thought about it yet, let’s not mention it for now.”

"Jiu'er is right. After all, the person who will accompany you for life must be carefully selected." Emperor Huiwen was keenly aware of the subtle strange emotions among the few people. Emperor Huiwen thought about it, and at the same time lamented that he was old, and the young people's Let the young people handle the matter.

Zike and the other seven people knelt on the ground and said in unison: "Slave servants (subordinates) thank the emperor and the ninth princess for their kindness!"

After waving the seven people to get up, Emperor Huiwen looked at his beloved daughter and said lovingly: "Jiuer, you have just come back and have a good rest. I will come to pick you up before the dinner."

"Farewell, Father!" Qingyun led everyone to see Emperor Huiwen and Leng Yi out of the palace.

Sima Rui, Sima Xian, and Sima Yue also told Qingyun to have a good rest and left Luoxia Palace, half dragging and half dragging away Sima Qi, who had been staring at Zike with a sad look in his eyes.

After instructing the two palace maids to take good care of Lan Jue, Qingyun and Mo Xuan took Zike back to her room.

Taking the hot tea from Mo Xuan and taking a sip, Qingyun glanced at Zike, who kept her head lowered and couldn't see her expression clearly. Although she understood her concerns, she was helpless. She turned to look at Hong Hu: " Honghu, is it still peaceful in the palace after I leave Beijing?"

"Back to the Ninth Princess." Hong Hu nodded and said respectfully: "The imperial concubine went to the Qinzheng Palace several times to ask for an audience with the emperor, but was blocked by Manager Leng. Concubine Yu took Princess Xian to Yuhua Palace, and Princess Rui, also With Princess Yongle personally taking care of Princess Xian, the rest of the concubines are quite peaceful, and no one dares to go to Luoxia Palace to cause trouble, so overall it is peaceful."

"Zhi Lan moved into Yuhua Palace?" Suddenly remembering the scene she saw in the city before, Qing Yun frowned slightly.

Hearing this, a trace of doubt flashed in Hong Hu's eyes: "I heard Concubine Yu say that this was the Ninth Princess's will, so the Emperor asked Manager Leng to pick up Princess Yongle. Could it be that..."

"It was me who conveyed the information to the Emperor in your name through Concubine Yu." Mo Xuan whispered in Qingyun's ear: "You and Yan Nuo worked hard to find that person, and successfully arranged for that person to meet Lin Tao. If Princess Yongle continues to stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion, she will inevitably be harmed. The best way is to let Princess Yongle leave the Prime Minister's Mansion openly and without anyone dare to stop her, so I went to see Concubine Yu before leaving."

Qingyun felt a sudden change in her heart: "Fortunately, you thought about Zhou Xiang, otherwise if you hurt Zhi Lan, I would have uneasy conscience in my life."

"I am your husband, so naturally I want to think about things you haven't thought of and do things you can't do!" Mo Xuan smiled like a star, with deep tenderness flowing in his eyes.

Squeezing the palm of Mo Xuan's hand under the table without leaving any trace, Qing Yun rolled her eyes at him shyly, then looked sideways and asked Hong Hu: "Is there anything special happening?"

"There is really one special thing."

"Tell me about it."

"My maid overheard two maids in Yanqing Palace talking. It seemed that Concubine Zhang from Prince Chun's Palace was pregnant. However, Concubine Zhang didn't seem to want the child, so she secretly asked her maid Bizhu to go to the drug store to buy the medicine. As a result, he was caught by King Chun, who not only imprisoned Bizhu, but also lost his temper with Concubine Zhang, and even made trouble with the imperial concubine. In the end, it was the imperial concubine who came forward to save the child. The slave secretly sent someone to inquire. It was confirmed that it was indeed true. Now Concubine Zhang has been staying in the mansion and almost never left the house. But for some reason, this matter has not been publicized. Even the emperor and Concubine Yu do not know about it. Counting Concubine Zhang, she has been there for three years. It’s been more than a month.”

Zhang Lianwu is more than three months pregnant?

Qing Yun raised her eyebrows and glanced at Mo Xuan, who also happened to look at her, and the two exchanged glances.

Although Zhang Lianwu's thoughts were hidden deeply, they could still guess a little bit. After all, she didn't have a child with the person she longed for. It was no wonder that Zhang Lianwu didn't want that child, but how could she be cruel? Are you willing to harm innocent people of your own blood?

"Don't make any noise about this matter yet, I will make my own decision." Qingyun gently warned you, "I have worked hard on you during this period, and my father has just granted you the title of fifth-grade female official to assist Concubine Yu in handling harem affairs. If you have more, you should pay more attention to your health. Allocate some of the affairs of Luoxia Palace to Lubo and Xiaoxiazi, and then choose two smart and trustworthy palace maids to serve me. As for handling the affairs of the harem, you must watch more and listen more. Tell me, learn more from Concubine Yu, and come to me when you are really undecided about something, and I will protect you, have you remembered that?"

"Hong Hu remembers the teachings of the Ninth Princess!" Hong Hu nodded gratefully.

"Also, if you have someone you like, you must tell me. Just like my father said, I will let you marry in a glorious way and I will never let anyone look down upon you."

A layer of mist suddenly appeared in Hong Hu's beautiful big eyes, and she was inexplicably moved.

According to the ancestral system, palace maids could not leave the palace until they were twenty-five years old, but by then it was already difficult to find a suitable family.

Now she is not only a fifth-grade female official, enjoying certain privileges, even those imperial wives have to bow respectfully when they see her, but the Ninth Princess also allows her to choose a husband of her own to marry in glory. This honor is what many people dream of, and it is also She had never dared to think about it. How could she not be moved by this?

"Hong Hu thanks the Ninth Princess for her kindness!" Hong Hu was already choked with sobs.

"As long as you live a happy life, it's more important than anything else." Qingyun said with a smile: "You and Lu Ba go down and have a good rest first. Father's birthday is coming soon, and you will be busy by then."

"Hong Hu (Green Amber) excuses himself." The two of them bowed respectfully and left.

"Long Ying, why did you go to Zhou State if you weren't investigating the cases of Feng Zhaoyi's and Su's families? Are the cases of both families related to Amugu Lang?"

"Go back to the master" Hearing Qingyun's question, Long Yingren said quietly with the surging emotions: "Based on the account book left by Feng Bin and the clues provided by Miss Qiao, my subordinates have indeed found some clues, and the two families have There are traces of Amuguro in unjust cases, so I sneaked into Prince Jingsu’s palace to look for evidence, but I didn’t expect to be discovered as soon as I entered the palace.”
