The eunuchs and maids of Qingyu Palace all looked queen was conferred the title of consort.
"This servant congratulates Her Majesty Rong Fei. May Her Majesty live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years."
Jiang Xianyun walked to the top seat and sat down.
"Everyone, get up. From now on, everyone should work hard. I will not treat you unfairly. From this month on, the monthly salary of everyone in the Qingyu Palace will be tripled."
"Thank you, empress."
This unprecedented wealth and honor is now theirs.
At this moment, these people were extremely grateful that they were chosen to serve in Qingyu Palace.
Jiang Xianyun looked at Xia Mei and said, "Xia Mei will be promoted to the head maid. She will continue to serve me from now on."
Upon hearing this, Xia Mei knelt down to express her gratitude.
"Thank you for your grace, Madam."
She is now conferred the title of Consort.
It's time to leave the palace and meet her mother.
What the original owner of this body and her biological mother, Aunt Lin, wanted most was to leave the Jiang Mansion and live their own lives.
Thinking of this, she already had a plan.
In the following days, Jiang Xianyun was unhappy, sighing and groaning, and he would sit alone for half a day. Of course, this was just an act.
Seeing her like this, all the servants in Qingyu Palace were extremely worried, wondering what had happened to their queen.
Zhao Junrui frowned slightly when he heard the news.
"Depressed? What's wrong with her?"
Eunuch Li, who was standing next to him, shook his head.
"I don't know either. I just heard from the servants in Qingyu Palace that Concubine Rong has been in a bad mood these days. She can sit in one place for half a day. Sometimes I can see her secretly wiping away tears. I don't know what's wrong with Concubine Rong."
Zhao Junrui put down the notebook in his hand.
This is not okay.
His aunt died not long after she became depressed. How could she...
"I'll go see her."
As an emperor, he was used to being alone before, and he thought it was okay, but now he has become accustomed to her existence. If anything happens to her, he will be alone again.
When the emperor came.
Jiang Xianyun was lying quietly by the window, motionless. He just raised his eyes to look at him and stood up to greet him.
"His Majesty."
Zhao Junrui walked up to her, held her hand and picked her up by the waist.
He walked over and sat on the soft couch, letting her sit in his arms.
"You look listless. What's wrong? Are you unhappy?"
Jiang Xianyun pulled his sleeve and lowered his head.
"No, no."
Zhao Junrui gently pinched his chin with his fingers and lifted it up.
"You have."
Jiang Xianyun's eyes became hot and she reached out to hug him and started crying.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
He stroked her hair with his big hands, and his mood became irritable because of her crying. "Why are you crying?"
This was the first time that Zhao Junrui had interacted with a woman like this, and he couldn't understand why she was crying like this. For a moment, he was at a loss.
"Someone bullied you? Concubine Shu? Or who?"
She shook her head.
"No."
"I miss my aunt. She is my biological mother. I don't know how she is now. She was in poor health before I entered the palace. I don't know if the eldest lady gave her food or if she was beaten. I feel very uncomfortable when I think about it."
"Not given food and beaten?"
He got the point.
Jiang Xianyun seemed to have let something slip.
"No, it's not."
There was a flash of danger in Zhao Junrui's eyes.
Hold her fingers.
"Tell me about your past."
"I didn't have any problems before, that's all."
"Not telling is a crime of deceiving the emperor."
"Then I said it."
"Ah."
Jiang Xianyun leaned on him and told him everything from childhood to adulthood. He said that he and his mother had been bullied and scolded in the Jiang Mansion, and that they were thrown to the farm to fend for themselves. In the end, because the emperor wanted the daughter of the Jiang family to enter the palace, his elder sister was unwilling, so he asked him to take over.
Jiang Xianyun raised his head slightly.
"Did I say too much?"
She was serious about trying to please the emperor. In her memory, the roof of the place where they lived in Jiang's house was leaking and the walls were moldy. Didn't her father know? He knew, but he just turned a blind eye.
If it weren't for Aunt Lin and her good luck, they might have died before they reached the farm.
The old Deng, the chief censor, and his family should not think of getting any benefit from her relationship in the future. They should not even think of sucking the blood of mosquitoes.
Zhao Junrui: "I didn't expect that the family of the Chief Censor would be like this."
He originally wanted to promote the Chief Censor to a higher rank after a while.
Now he wants nothing.
He was just depressed because he missed his mother, which made him feel relieved. As an emperor, he should not care about these trivial matters, but he actually cared about whether she was happy or not.
"Well, if you just miss your mother, you can go out of the palace to see her. You can also summon her to the palace. It's not a big deal."
He took out a token from his body and handed it to her. "This is my token, take it."
Jiang Xianyun took it, happily hugged his neck and kissed him twice on the face.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Zhao Junrui: "You must bring guards with you when you leave the palace. This token can mobilize the Jinyiwei if you encounter danger."
Jiang Xianyun was stunned when she heard this. She lowered her head and took a closer look. He actually gave her such a thing.
It seems that although this emperor looks cold and unapproachable and can't even smile normally, he still cares about her very much.
"I see."
"Don't worry, I won't leave the palace alone. If I go out, I will bring guards to protect me."
"So good."
She reached over and put the token aside, then stood up and sat astride his legs.
The little hand gently touched his shoulder and cheek.
“Your Majesty has been busy these past two days.
"Your Majesty, I missed you."
Zhao Junrui raised his eyes slightly and his gaze fell on her face, his eyes darkened.
"How much do you think?"
She leaned over to his lips and kissed him, "Think so."
A big hand grasped her waist and the next moment she was completely trapped in his arms and he kissed her lips.
"Well."
He turned over and pressed her down on the couch.
"The token hit my shoulder."
Zhao Junrui waved his hand in disdain and the token fell to the ground.
A breeze blew in through the open windows.
Only the clothes that fell to the ground explained everything...
Arrive later.
When the emperor left, even Eunuch Li who was following him could see that his majesty's brows were relaxed and it was obvious that he was in a good mood.
This has never happened before.
In the bedroom.
Jiang Xianyun was lying on her bed covered with a quilt, with the token given to her by Zhao Junrui placed next to her pillow.
"Your Majesty, His Majesty has left."
It was Xia Mei's voice beside me.
Jiang Xianyun waved his hand casually.
"Ah."
"Xia Mei, I want to take a bath."
"Okay, Madam. I'll have someone prepare it right away."
Soon everything needed for bathing was prepared in the side hall, the screen was placed in place and the bathtub was filled with hot water.
Jiang Xianyun went over wearing his pajamas.
Soak comfortably in hot water.
Looking at the obvious marks on her body, Xia Mei smiled faintly.
"Your Majesty really dotes on the Queen."
Jiang Xianyun coughed lightly.
"Xia Mei wants to get married. Would you like the master to keep an eye on you?"
Xia Mei blushed when she heard her teasing her.
"No, no, I just want to stay by your side and serve you. I don't want to get married..."
What's the good of getting married? You have to serve your parents-in-law and take care of the whole family, and you may not get anything good out of it.
This was the kind of life her mother used to live.
Jiang Xianyun didn't say anything else.
Everyone chooses to live differently, just be happy.
