Chapter 40: Greed

Ji Qiang was a little surprised by the speed of the palace to send rewards, listened to Xi'er's words, and also wanted to see what good things were loosened, nodded, and as Xi'er walked out of the house, she saw a group of people coming to the courtyard, and they were dressed as people from the palace.

There was a eunuch with a roster in his hand, and he was very respectful in the courtyard, and when he saw Ji Qiang coming out of the house, he took everyone to salute, and Ji Qiang never expected that there would be palace people coming together.

Followed by the upbringing of the grandmother, Ji Qiang frowned even more, and said: "Such a big show, I just heard that His Majesty promised me a title and a mansion, gold, silver and jewelry, silk and satin, but forget about these palace people." ”

Ji Qiang said, glanced at the dozen or so large boxes piled up in the courtyard, and then looked at the palace maid with the same color, and frowned into a river, "Go back and tell Your Majesty that I don't need to be subordinate." ”

The eunuch was originally smiling flatteringly, but after listening to Ji Qiang's words, his face was even more embarrassed, "Ouch! Her Royal Highness Princess Xiaoyang, you are embarrassing the miscellaneous family, the miscellaneous family is just an errand runner, if this kind of thing is to let the miscellaneous family pass it on to His Majesty, isn't it a matter of losing your head? After a pause, he glanced at her with some blame, "If the princess is not satisfied, she will go into the palace to face the saint, talk about it in front of His Majesty, and please spare the lives of servants like the miscellaneous family!" ”

Of course, Ji Qiang couldn't be so cold-blooded, and it was impossible for him to have the courage to enter the palace to find the emperor's old son, listening to the eunuch's words, he sighed secretly, so he had to take the roster and glance at the neat palace maid.

First, they counted the gold, silver, and jewelry, and then all kinds of silk and satin, and were halfway through the cleaning, when there was a noisy sound outside the courtyard.

From outside the courtyard, a woman in a fancy costume came in, with a golden hairpin on her head, and she was wearing the latest style of clothing, looking very luxurious, with a proud expression on her face, looking at Ji Qiang from above, her face was full of disdain.

But when she saw the gold, silver and jewels all over the courtyard, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she couldn't help but exclaim, and pushed away the maidservants who were stopping her, as if she thought these rewards were her own, and she touched it there and looked at it, full of greed.

"Is there something wrong with my aunt's sudden visit to my small courtyard?" Ji Qiang looked at her eyes refusing to take their eyes off the reward, and couldn't stop sneering in her heart, and her eyes became a little colder.

Aunt Du has been in the Guogong Mansion for more than ten years, and in order to contribute to the Guogong Mansion, in addition to giving birth to a gentleman, she is breathing out of one nostril with Gu Hanyan, and rushing into her courtyard with such a vigorous momentum, I am afraid that it is for the things at the banquet.

Aunt Du listened to Ji Qiang's question, and then remembered her ultimate purpose of coming here, cleared her throat, raised her neck slightly, and said with a shelf: "I heard that you bluntly said at the banquet that Yan'er went to the palace to lose the face of the Duke of the Kingdom, and felt that Yan'er was a foreign surname. Can't get on the table, and it's holding you back? ”

Ji Qiang heard her words, she really couldn't hold back for a while, and laughed out loud, as if she had heard some big joke, and the laughter gradually changed from small to loud, but the people in the whole courtyard who laughed were a little confused.

It made Aunt Du even more ashamed, and glared at her through gritted teeth, even if she smeared a thick layer of rouge, she could see that her face was flushed, and she looked angry.

"What are you laughing at, am I still false?" Aunt Du said in a raised voice a few degrees, glared at Ji Qiang, and continued: "I don't take the elders in my eyes like this, I am also half of your mother, I don't understand the rules so much, I dare to laugh at me, really when you are rewarded by Your Majesty now, you can fly on the branches and become a phoenix?!" ”

The ridicule and disdain in the words were obvious, and even the father-in-law from the palace frowned and looked at her with some displeasure, "Bold——! Dare to ask you a little aunt, and dare to be presumptuous in front of the princess! Who doesn't understand the rules, and there is no distinction between respect and inferiority! ”

Aunt Du was stunned for a moment, and her heart was even more angry, but she didn't dare to be angry with her father-in-law, she only dared to stare at Ji Qiang, but her momentum was weak, "You can ...... is to get a reward, with a title, as long as you are in the Guogong Mansion for one day, you will be a person in the Guogong Mansion for one day, and I will be your elder, so I naturally have enough confidence to talk to you like this! ”

"Or did you forget your last name when you entered the palace? Have you forgotten even the most basic blood ties in the palace?! Aunt Du questioned Ji Qiang step by step, but her eyes looked at more than a dozen boxes of things from time to time.

Not even a blind person can see what the purpose of her visit this time is, let alone Ji Qiang, and she sneered twice, not even wanting to make a superficial smile.

Aunt Du only felt stunned by her, and felt that she was really not bad with what Gu Hanyan said, she was different from the cowardly waste before, but even so, most of the affairs of the Guogong Mansion were taken care of by her, and even if the Bai family took over during this time, it would have to return to her sooner or later.

Even if she's locked up and grounded, it's the same.

Aunt Du thought, a cold light flashed in her eyes, and she looked at Ji Qiang like a snake and scorpion, as if she really regarded her as a lamb to be slaughtered.

But when she thought so, she really underestimated Ji Qiang.

Today's Ji Qiang is even a little afraid of Gu Hanyan, so she instigated Aunt Du to be this up-and-coming bird, and she chose such a time.

You must know that the father-in-law who came from the palace is an errand runner, if he really says it, it is equivalent to the emperor's eyes and ears, and it is equivalent to the existence of the emperor's stand-in, this Aunt Du actually came to find trouble at this time, I really don't know if it's stupid or stupid.

After listening to her hysterical questioning, Ji Qiang slowly spoke: "Auntie, is it finished?" Do you want to say that in this mansion, you are in charge of everything from now to end, and you are in charge, so it is really hard. ”

Ji Qiangpi finished speaking without smiling, the expression in her eyes was flat, but Aunt Du was inexplicably empty-hearted, "That's right, since you know that you honestly hand over the roster to me, and I will take care of it for you." ”

"Auntie's kind-hearted Qiang Er knows, but after all, this is personally rewarded to me by His Majesty, and it is just an accessory that is rewarded along with the title, and Auntie is so active, do you want to "keep" my title with you? ”

After saying this, Aunt Du's face turned white, and she rushed up to give Ji Qiang a slap, "How can you talk nonsense about this kind of thing!" ”

If this kind of words reach the ears of the emperor, it is a big crime to kill his head, Ji Qiang, a cheap hoof, actually wants to pull him into the water!

Aunt Du's eyes were full of fierce anger, but as soon as her hand was raised, she was grabbed fiercely.
