The marshal's wife and Changning princess went to the palace to visit His Majesty, and stayed in Xihe Palace for a day. In the evening, Mrs. Lu left the palace, leaving Changning County chief to stay in the palace for a while.

The princess also stayed in the palace before, and now she still lives in Lanyuexuan.

In these palaces without masters, there are only maids sweeping them on weekdays. If someone lives there, palace servants will be transferred to take care of them. These things have to go through Gong Zhengsi, which is the responsibility of Xu Yiren.

She handed over the matter to Xie Jin.

"Don't say I sent you. Princess Changning is Lu Shuai's daughter, His Majesty's cousin, and has always been close to His Majesty. If you can climb up to her, leaving the palace is nothing more than a word."

Xu Yiren stuffed the list into Xie Jin's hands, and said triumphantly, "I've chosen all the people, you just take them there."

Xie Jin pinched the list, feeling warm in his heart, and moved: "Thank you, Yi Ren."

Xu Yiren waved his hand, thinking she was disgusting.

Xie Jin led the eight maids picked by Xu Yiren to Lan Yuexuan, and happened to meet Gao Sheng'an at the door who brought a few eunuchs with him. After seeing him a few times from a distance, he knew the rules and avoided it, letting him lead others forward.

Gao Sheng'an has always known that His Majesty has a good sister in Gong Zhengsi, so he also has some understanding of Xie Jin. Although Xie Jin doesn't know, how dare he put on airs as a chief executive for someone His Majesty values.

"Our family came later, Xie Sizheng invites you first."

Gao Sheng'an stretched out his hand with a smile, motioning for Xie Jin to come in first.

Xie Jin was a little hesitant, not knowing how Gao Shengan knew her.

Although he is the head of the harem, after all, he is always in front of the imperial court and orders his subordinates to do many things. In Xie Jin's impression, the two of them have never met.

"It's better to invite the senior manager first."

Xie Jin took another step back, nodded and said.

She was very humble, Gao Shengan looked around, and it was inconvenient to refuse, so he thanked her, led the people through the door first, Xie Jin followed them, and kept a certain distance behind them.

Lu Zhaohan, the owner of Changning County, is a pretty girl. Xie Jin secretly raised her eyes to look at her. Lu Zhaohan was greeting Gao Sheng'an with a smile on her face. Her laughter was crisp and clear, and she didn't seem difficult to get along with.

Gao Sheng'an and Lu Zhaohan said a few words of courtesy, then changed the subject, led her to look at Xie Jin behind him, and introduced: "Princess, this is Xie Sizheng from Gong Zhengsi."

Lu Zhaohan had never seen Xie Jin before, so he showed some curiosity.

Xie Jin bowed forward and said respectfully: "My servant Xie Jin, I have met Princess Changning."

Although Gong Zhengsi is the official office of female officials, except for Gong Zheng who can be called a minister to His Majesty, the rest are still called slaves.

Lu Zhaohan said "Excuse me", and looked at her carefully. Xie Jin straightened his back, let her look at him with a graceful smile, and said with a smile: "The eight maids behind the servants will be responsible for serving the princess' daily life in the future. If the princess If there is any dissatisfaction, or if you want to change someone, you can also order the servants."

The eight maids behind her, Qi Qifu, saluted and said, "See Princess."

Lu Zhaohan is not picky, so he glanced around and found that there was nothing wrong with his eyes, so he nodded and said, "Just them, I won't stay in the palace for too long."

Xie Jin said: "Then let them serve the princess for the time being. If there is something wrong, the princess can ask someone to go to the palace to find slaves, and the servants will help the princess to send someone else."

She originally wanted to make friends with the princess, but she didn't expect to get together with Gao Sheng'an so coincidentally. In front of such a person as Mr. Gao, Xie Jin naturally didn't dare to play any tricks, so she left soon.

After Xie Jin left, Lu Zhaohan said to Gao Shengan: "Even though Miss Huang doesn't have three thousand beauties, I see that there are many beauties hidden in her harem. No wonder she doesn't want to get married."

Gao Sheng'an coughed lightly: "The Princess is careful."

"What are you talking about carefully? Does Director Gao think what I said is wrong?"

"This……"

It's not right to say that there is something wrong, and it's even worse to say that it's right. Gao Sheng'an really couldn't stand the weird brain circuit of the princess, so he found a reason at random and ran away quickly.

Jiang Zhao was not seriously ill, and was able to go for a walk. It was rare that she didn't have to deal with political affairs urgently due to illness. She leaned on the soft couch under the window in a daze, holding a book in her hand, but didn't read a few words.

Gao Sheng'an came into the hall and saw her wandering, he coughed lightly to catch her attention.

With a tired look on her face, she only glanced at Gao Sheng'an, then lowered her head to flip through the book in her hand.

It was already dark outside, Gao Sheng'an was afraid that her eyes would be damaged, so he picked up the candlestick on the table and put it on the table beside the couch.

"Your Majesty." He called tentatively.

Jiang Zhao turned another page of the book, but didn't intend to talk to him.

Gao Sheng'an didn't feel embarrassed, and said slowly: "When I went to Lanyuexuan just now, it happened that Gong Zhengsi also sent someone there. Guess who I met?"

Jiang Zhao stopped flipping the book and looked up at him.

"It's Xie Sizheng."

To Gao Sheng'an's surprise, he thought that His Majesty must have some different emotions when he heard this name, but he didn't expect that she just nodded without any special reaction.

It seems that I don't know His Majesty very well, and Gao Sheng'an fell into subtle self-doubt.

The master and servant were relatively silent, and after a long while, it was Jiang Zhao who spoke first.

She closed the scroll and threw it aside, sat up straight and waved, Gao Sheng'an quickly brought a teacup from the side to her hand.

Jiang Zhao took two sips of warm tea, and said calmly: "As the official secretary of the palace, Zuo Sizheng, it is her duty to send the palace servants to Lanyue Pavilion, and it has nothing to do with me. You don't have to come and tell me."

Gao Sheng'an lowered his head and said in shame: "Your Majesty takes care of everything every day, and now he is ill again. I really shouldn't bother you with such trivial matters. Please punish me."

Jiang Zhao said: "Punishment will be avoided, and I will not mention her in front of me in the future."

Judging by her tone, there must be something awkward about it, and then thinking of her inexplicable illness, Gao Sheng felt hesitant, and said with a smile: "I remember it, but I don't mention it, I'm afraid someone else will come carry."

"What does this mean?" Jiang Zhao was puzzled.

Gao Sheng said: "Princess Changning praised Xie Sizheng today. According to the servant, the princess has such a mischievous temperament, some things are not counted in front of the servant, and he must say it again in front of His Majesty."

Mentioning Lu Zhaohan, Jiang Zhao showed obvious disgust on his face, and asked, "What did she say?"

Gao Sheng'an held his throat, imitated Lu Zhaohan, and repeated the original words.

Although Princess Changning was out of tune, she was always a pistachio. Gao Sheng'an only wanted to make His Majesty laugh, but he never wanted to listen to his words. His Majesty was actually a little dazed, and even more serious gradually.

His heart was like a drum, he shut his mouth and didn't dare to say more.

Jiang Zhao just kept a posture, holding half a cup of tea in his hand, and sat on the couch for a long time.

"His Majesty?"

"I'm tired, you step back."

Jiang Zhao got up, put the teacup aside casually, and walked straight to the dragon bed.

Gao Shengan followed two steps, stopped far away, and asked tentatively: "Your Majesty, do you want someone to come in and serve you?"

"No need." Jiang Zhao turned his back to him. Although she couldn't see her expression, she could vaguely feel that she was not in a good mood from her tone. "There is no need to arrange a vigil tonight. Don't disturb me if there is nothing important."

"The slave obeys the order."

Gao Sheng'an stepped back outside and closed the door of the palace.

Jiang Zhao took off his shoes and socks, and sat cross-legged on the bed for a while, probably because he thought the space was not private enough, got up and stretched out his hands to put down the curtains on both sides, and the whole large dragon bed immediately formed a small enclosed space.

She has always had the habit of thinking calmly the more she is in a narrow and secret place, but for a king, this is obviously not a habit that can be obtained.

So no one else knows except herself.

She was thinking about a question, a question that was obviously just a joke made by Lu Zhaohan casually, but it went straight to her heart.

The emperor's harem beauties have nothing to do with Xie Jin, and whether she gets married in the future has nothing to do with Xie Jin.

But Jiang Zhao thought, if she used three thousand beauties, or her future marriage partner, no matter who it was, to exchange for Xie Jin alone, would she be willing?

Jiang Zhao asked himself.

are you willing?

willing.

Not only was she willing, but she thought that she could live with Sister in the future, like sisters, or like a husband and wife. This was obviously an extremely absurd idea, not only did she not find it difficult to accept, she even felt vaguely happy.

Jiang Zhao was born in the deep palace and grew up in the deep palace. He was promoted to the throne of God when he was young. For three years, he has been conscientious and diligent in political affairs.

She met Xie Jin when she was the most confused and helpless in her life, and she was kind enough to call her "Sister". Since then, she has been with her for six years. After the Queen Mother passed away, Xie Jin became Jiang Zhao's heart The most important relatives.

But now she understands that it's not just relatives.

She used to rely on Xie Jin, but after she ascended the throne, she was afraid that she would alienate her like her uncle, so she continued to hide her identity, let go of her status as an emperor by her side, and acted as a poor little girl who needed to be cared for.

But as she grows older and her concept changes, she also gradually understands that she no longer just wants to be the little palace maid Ah Zhao under Xie Jin's wings, she also wants to protect her, love her, let her depend on, and let her depend on .

The maid Ah Zhao's gratitude and dependence on Xie Jin, as Jiang Zhao grew older and her identity changed, before she even realized it, it has gradually transformed into another kind of affection.

She adores Xie Jin.

Because of this, she was so afraid of losing, and it was so hard to accept that Xie Jin had a sweetheart.

Jiang Zhao didn't know whether the absolute possessiveness she gradually revealed belonged to the inferior nature of the emperor, or it was something that Jiang Zhao was born to hide in his bones.

She didn't know it before, and thought that as long as Xie Jin was good, everything would be fine. Now that she had a sudden realization, she suddenly had some thoughts that made her terrified and hard to express.

This kind of thinking is called getting.

She adores Xie Jin, doesn't want Xie Jin to have another sweetheart, and only wants her to belong to herself.

Jiang Zhao wants to get Xie Jin.

"Sister."

Jiang Zhao opened his mouth slowly, lingering two words from between his lips and teeth.

A half-smile suddenly appeared on her expressionless face, and she repeated those two words several times. She bit her lower lip and carefully changed her name.

"Jin Niang."
