Could it be...that she really wanted to die of old age in this Xinzheku?
As soon as this idea appeared, Su held her head and murmured: "No! No, I will definitely leave here, even if Yongzhang is not here, I will definitely leave here!"
After a long time, she slowly raised her head, looked at the closed door with cold eyes, and said word by word: "Yongxun, since you don't miss the love between mother and son, I won't miss it either; if I don't go out,
Come on, otherwise...you will definitely be punished for today's humiliation!"
No matter how unwilling the Su family was, without Yongzhang, she could only stay in Xin Zhe's library and could no longer stir up trouble as before.
While Su Shi was gnashing her teeth with hatred, Xianyue was not in a good mood either. She frowned and looked at Zhou Quan, who was standing below, and said, "You said... Wei Jingxuan is still alive?"
Zhou Quan said with a guilty look on his face: "Yes, I followed the empress's instructions and sent the poisonous scorpion to the Yongshou Palace in the name of sending flowers, but I never heard that anything happened to Wei's promise; and then I thought of several other ways, but none of them worked.
The work has been accomplished." After saying that, he knelt down and said, "This slave is incompetent, please forgive me, Master!"
"I know you've tried your best. Get up." After Zhou Quan stood up straight again, Xianyue gently twisted the oval kumquat between her fingers and said coldly: "It seems that this Wei family is very lucky, to be like this.
None of them could kill her."
Zhou Quan said quickly: "Your Majesty, if you give me some more time, I will definitely try to complete this matter, and I will definitely live up to your trust."
Xianyue nodded and said: "In that case, I will continue to let you handle this matter. Be careful and don't let anyone see the clues. Otherwise, if you make a fuss, I will not be able to protect you."
Zhou Quan said with a smile: "Don't worry, Madam, except for the delay this time, I have never let you down before."
"No matter what, it's always good to be careful." Saying this, Xianyue added: "I heard from the emperor two days ago that Qian Moduo has resigned from the emperor, and the position of general manager will soon be vacant.
, you have been very diligent and attentive in your work these years. Although your qualifications are a little junior, you can still hold the position of general manager. "
There was a hint of excitement on Zhou Quan's face, but soon turned into a look of worry, "In the past few years, Zhang Quan has been trying to overpower the slaves. If the master rewards the slaves as the general manager this time, I'm afraid he won't be willing to accept it.
If something happens again then, we will be in trouble."
Xianyue smiled and said: "Don't worry, I will ask the emperor to issue an edict. Under the edict, Zhang Quan will not be able to cause any trouble even if he is unwilling to do so."
Hearing this, Zhou Quan felt relieved, clapped his sleeves and knelt down and said, "I thank you for your kindness. I will never forget your kindness. I am willing to serve you for the rest of my life to repay your kindness."
Xianyue raised her hand and said: "Okay, it's the best reward for you to work for me. Come on down."
After Zhou Quan returned to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, he tried hard to think of ways to deal with Wei Jingxuan. In the past few months, he had tried all the methods he could, but nothing happened to Wei Jingxuan. It was really weird.
The most troublesome thing now is that he cannot easily enter and leave the Yongshou Palace, otherwise he would not be so constrained. However, since he agreed to this matter, he must find a way even if he wants to break his head.
While I was thinking hard, there were voices at the door, but it was Zhang Quan who led the people in. The latter said as he walked: "Masters and queens have just returned to the palace with the emperor. You must be tired after traveling for a long time. Hurry up.
Send things according to the salary regulations of each place, be careful and don't look back
The head is missing one way or another; in addition, the pickled plums just yesterday are also sent, especially to Concubine Ying, who wants to send more. Before the southern tour, she said that the plums are moderately sweet and sour, just right for her appetite;
It's a pity that the newly brewed plums were not ready yet, and the emperor had already set off on a tour of the south."
After the palace man left as instructed, Zhang Quan saw Zhou Quan sitting in the room, a trace of disgust flashed across his eyes, and then he said with a smile on his face: "Hey, Deputy General Manager Zhou is here too, look at our house, just now
I was so preoccupied with talking that I didn't even see you. I just heard someone say that you went to the Queen's house, but what happened?"
Zhou Quan naturally couldn't tell the truth, so he smiled and said: "It's nothing important, I just went to say hello as a routine matter. Besides, Deputy General Zhang has taken care of the affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, so I have nothing to do here."
"Deputy Manager Zhou is really thoughtful. The Queen has just returned to the palace and is still tired, so she hurried to pay her respects. Aren't you afraid of tiring the Queen?" Zhang Quan said sourly, starting from the time Qian Moduo became the general manager of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
, he has been following him, from the most ordinary little eunuch to the position of deputy general manager today. If there is no accident, he will be the general manager of the Ministry of Internal Affairs after Qian Moduo; but a man suddenly appeared
All things considered, over the years, with the Queen's grace, he has risen from a steward to the position of deputy general manager, not to mention being on an equal footing with him. Once the position of general manager becomes vacant, the Queen will definitely help him take the position. When the time comes, he will be able to take over.
It depends on Zhou Quan's face, this is something he absolutely cannot accept, so he worked hard these days to please all the masters in the palace, while also giving up Zhou Quan's power.
How could Zhou Quan not know what he was thinking, but Xianyue had already given him reassurance, so he did not want to conflict with Zhang Quan, so he immediately said: "Although the empress has just returned to the palace, she is in good spirits." After a pause, he continued: "
When I came back from Kunning Palace, I heard from the wet nurse that the twelfth prince didn't have much rice cereal to eat. I wanted to personally pick out some high-quality fragrant rice and grind it into flour and send it to him. I knew that Deputy General Zhang was in charge of that rice. I didn't know.
…”
Before he could finish speaking, Zhang Quan said politely: "Since the twelfth brother wants it, Deputy General Manager Zhou can just go and get it. It doesn't matter even if Miku is emptied." With that, he summoned a palace man.
Humanity said: "Take Deputy General Manager Zhou to the rice bank and pick out the best rice for Deputy General Manager Zhou to choose."
Zhou Quan cupped his hands and said, "Thank you so much, Deputy Manager Zhang."
After Zhou Quan left with the palace people, Zhang Quan spat at his back and said in a dark voice: "Why are you so proud? Do you think that by relying on the person from Kunning Palace, you will definitely be able to become the general manager? Don't even think about it!"
It took a lot of effort for him to get to this point, and he would not give it away at any cost. The position of general manager is his, and no one can take it away!
Just when he was feeling annoyed, a slightly trembling man walked in. It was Qian Moduo with white hair and beard. Zhang Quan quickly stepped forward to support him and said with concern: "Manager, didn't you say you haven't been feeling well these days?
Well, why did you come out?"
"Our family saw that the weather was very good today, so we went out for a walk. It's okay to lie down all the time." Qian Moduo is old after all. Since last winter, he has been sick every three days and spent most of the month lying down.
Almost all affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs are left to the two deputy general managers, so I decided to resign from the position of general manager and return to my hometown where I had been away for decades.
