On the second day, Qiao Mei got up early in the morning and walked around the house, but rarely saw her father.

In the past, Jing Guogong had to fight a set of punches before going to Qingping Courtyard for breakfast.

She casually pulled a hurried maid, and as soon as she opened her mouth, she saw that this maid was very raw, and she was also panicked when she saw her, as if she didn't know what to call her.

Qiao frowned, and before he could speak, he saw a person coming in a hurry not far away, combing the uniform buns of the maids in the house, and there was a pink bead flower on the side of the bun, which looked a little good.

However, Qiao Mei recognized her, she was the eldest girl Lan'er beside the Xu family, who was originally allocated to Qiao Hui by the Xu family, but somehow came back.

Because of her eagerness, there were still some beads of sweat on her forehead, and Lan'er saw Qiao Mei and hurriedly saluted, "Say hello to the fourth girl." ”

After that, she noticed the stunned maid on the side again, and in a few moments of thought, she understood what was happening.

Lan'er pulled the maid over to greet her, and explained apologetically to Qiao Mei, "The fourth girl forgives her sins, this is the maid who just came to Suxin Academy, and she has not had time to train yet."

As soon as she said this, Qiao Mei understood.

As soon as Xu was promoted to a flat wife, all the maids who were not in the courtyard had to be replaced, but her second uncle's actions were really neat.

It was only made public yesterday, but today he has already found a good person and picked a maid to come back, thinking that he had planned it a long time ago.

"It's okay." Qiao Mei gently lifted it, and casually asked why her father was not in the house.

Lan'er said, "The fourth girl may not have gotten up yet, it was still dark this morning, and the grandfather of the country was called away by someone from the palace, but what is the matter, the slave maid is not clear." ”

The low-status maidservants in the house often have to get up before dawn, and prepare the warm water for the master's cleansing in the morning and the food that the master orders to use overnight, so as not to make the master feel unpleasant.

If you meet a master who loves to toss, you have to take a bath every morning, which makes the people below even busier, such as the Qi family in the past.

Ke Lan'er is a first-class maid beside the Xu family, so why do you have to work like this

"Fourth girl, if there is nothing else, the slaves and maids will retreat first, and the lady will have to be a servant."

Qiao Mei nodded, and Lan'er hurriedly led the people back, her steps were still in a hurry, and Qiao Mei's eyes couldn't help but slip a touch of deep thought.

If she remembers correctly, Lan'er's return to Jingguo Mansion was the day Qiao Hui returned to the door, and she never returned to Qinwangfu with Qiao Hui.

After that, the Xu family competed with the Qi family for favor

Jing Guogong's entry into the palace this time did not make Zhou and Qiao Mei worry for a long time, and he came back just after noon.

Zhou couldn't help but remember that the last time Jing Guogong went to the palace, he put it aside for a long time before coming out.

When he was still so sad that he couldn't use the food, the surprised voice of the maidservant girl came from outside, "Grandpa Guo is back"

It's no wonder that the people below are so happy, after all, Jingguo Gong is the lord of the mansion, if something happens to him, they will not be much better.

Qiao Mei laughed at her mother next to her, "I'll say, now that the prince is here, how can something happen to my father?"

Last time King Qin's incident, Emperor Zhaoren could clarify everything, and at that time he sent Xie Huaijin to Beizhou to inspect the case of embezzlement of ink, so he naturally had no time to take care of the capital.

"You" Zhou Shi slowed down, pinched his fingers and tapped her forehead, but he no longer cared about Jing Guogong who came in through the curtain.

She turned her head and asked Qiao Mei, "Didn't you say that Miss Lin was coming to the house in the morning?"

Qiao Mei responded to her words and said, "Yes, now she should come, and the daughter has retired." ”

She knew that her mother wanted to break her up and talk to her father, so she naturally wouldn't get in the way.

Unexpectedly, Jing Guogong stopped her, "Qingqing, sit down, Dad has something to tell you." ”

As soon as he came in, the maids came one after another to clean their hands with water and bring lunch.

Qiao Mei raised his head suspiciously, Jing Guogong sat down with a deep brow, and the Zhou family on the side gave Qingzhu a look and asked her to take the maid down.

When the room was quiet again, Jing Guogong sighed softly and said, "Your Majesty's time is running out." ”

Qiao Mei was puzzled.

She knew this, and Jing Guogong mentioned it obscurily on the day he came back.

But what does it have to do with her?

Seeing that she still didn't know what to do, Jing Guogong said, "Now the ministers have advised the prince, hoping that he can accept the concubine earlier." ”

"It's just nonsense" Zhou was the first to be displeased, she was a little angry, "Qingqing hasn't even reached yet, why do they think like this"

Jing Guogong supported his forehead, which was exactly what he was worried about.

Xie Huaijin is the prince, and before the emperor died, his heirs were naturally not so important. But now Emperor Zhaoren has been chronically poisoned, even if the divine doctor is alive, he can't save him.

What it means to be clear is that those courtiers want to take the lead in fighting for the current crown princess, or even the future queen, of course they know that the fourth girl Qiao who was appointed by Emperor Zhaoren has not yet reached the throne

"Originally, Qingqing could have taken advantage of this matter to withdraw from the dispute between the crown princess." Jing Guogong sighed slightly, he knew that his wife was unwilling to let his daughter marry into the East Palace, "But this morning the prince mentioned it in public, and at that time, His Majesty gave Qingqing the Zhao Feng, this is not clear"

I see.

Qiao Mei breathed a sigh of relief, she thought that Xie Yuzhi had done something This person was hiding deeply, although she had reminded Xie Huaijin at that time, but she was also afraid that he would relax his vigilance.

It stands to reason that she has done what she can do, and now that the situation is extremely favorable to Xie Huaijin, she no longer needs to accompany him.

But when she remembered the little tsundere little ball when she was a child, she now has a cold "evil god" that can kill people with her eyes alone, as if all the warmth is far away from him.

Although Jingguo Mansion is his foreign home, Mrs. Qiao is snobbish, and she only thinks about how to continue the hundred-year-old plaque, and she has always had only awe and no pity for the son born to her daughter.

And the Jingguo Mansion is full of military generals, her father has never cared about people, and her mother used to have a little pity for Xie Huaijin, but since His Majesty made that will, she has not been waiting to see her.

After thinking about it, Qiao Mei said in a low voice, "Daddy, my daughter is willing to marry into the East Palace." ”

"Do you know what you're talking about" Zhou stared, the former softness was gone. She is such a daughter, even if she was bitter in the past, she didn't want to give her the slightest grievance, "It's really not as good as Qingqing thinks in the palace." ”

It's a place where you can't eat people and don't spit out bones, that's a place where your husband wants to share it with others, how can she be willing to let her daughter go

Now that there is obviously a great opportunity, you can not enter the East Palace, as long as you secretly contact those ministers and ask them to increase the heat, Xie Huaijin will only give in after a while in order to stabilize the emperor's throne

Qiao Mei looked at her with red eyes, and her eyes were full of sorrow, where was the grandeur when she spoke to her grandmother a few days ago
