Chapter 15 Right-hand man
The Queen was not disgusted by Li Lanxin's active recommendation of a concubine's daughter. After all, Daxia was very harsh on women.
The treatment of widows and childless women was even stricter. Before she came, she had asked the secret guards to investigate Li Lanxin.
This is a broad-minded woman. She and Jiang Minghai's father were childhood sweethearts, but she does not focus all her attention on men.
Therefore, when Jiang's father later took concubines, she did not mistreat them, but treated them very well.
It is also because of this that the careful and gentle Aunt He, and the courageous and innocent Aunt Zhou, are able to live a stable life in the backyard of the Zhou Mansion.
Now, he depends on Li Lanxin for everything.
The queen readily followed her advice and took Xiao Qianqian to meet the other two concubines of the Jiang family, Jiang Zhenzhu and Jiang Baozhu.
The system was somewhat shocked when it saw these two girls who were about 13 or 14 years old. [Little princess, look, that Jiang Zhenzhu is very good at taming animals.]
[Hmm? Taming animals?]
Xiao Qianqian's eyes lit up, [I remember there was a zoo in the palace?]
The system was silent for a while, and then said in a low voice, "Ah, yes, that's because the people who look after the zoo are not dedicated enough, and the animals there are all skinny."
【What? 】
When Xiao Qianqian first came here, her phone was full of news about national treasures being abused, and she simply couldn't stand it.
[No, how can this be possible? ]
The system was silent. He was a kind-hearted ruler who couldn't bear to see small animals suffer.
The Queen also frowned when she heard this. Just then, Jiang Zhenzhu was showing the Queen the pigeons she had trained. Dozens of pigeons were circling in the sky in different formations, which amazed the onlookers.
She paused and asked, "I remember that there is also a zoo in our palace?"
The secret guard immediately replied, "Yes, Madam."
Xiao Qianqian's eyes lit up immediately, "Mother, mother, please quickly tidy up the palace and get rid of those evil-minded servants in the palace."
The queen smiled and kissed her daughter's face, and immediately ordered, "There are many things to do in the palace now, send someone to the zoo to check."
"Yes."
The secret guard took the order and left. Jiang Zhenzhu had finished her performance, and now it was Jiang Baozhu's turn to settle the score.
I saw the little girl clacking four abacuses in her hands.
Not only the Queen, but also Xiao Qianqian and the system were stunned.
After a long while, the system finally spoke, [Little Princess, this girl was the richest person when the war broke out.]
【What? 】
Xiao Qianqian's attention finally shifted away from Jiang Baozhu. [What did you say about the war? ]
[Yes, it was after your father passed away that Daxia began to be invaded by other countries one after another. Daxia had almost no peace for more than 20 years after that.]
[Finally, Daxia, Southern Qi, Western Liang, Chu, and the Northern Kingdom were at war, and the whole world was raging with war, and the people were living in misery. ]
Xiao Qianqian...
Queen...
Everyone in the Jiang family...
For a moment, Jiang Baozhu stopped fiddling with the abacus and stared at the little princess in the queen's arms.
War rages?
She tilted her head to glance at her eldest brother's yard, then looked at her two sisters and her two mothers who were hiding in the corridor and peeking.
There was also the mother with red eyes and the little girl clenching her fists. How could the Great Xia be raging in war?
If war breaks out in Daxia, what will happen to her family?
The same thought lingered in the minds of everyone who heard Xiao Qianqian's thoughts. For a moment, the only sound in the Jiang family's hall was suppressed gasps.
Xiao Qianqian also frowned, and spoke after a long while, "That can't be possible. I don't care what would have happened in the past. I only care about the present."
[Right now, Imperial Physician Feng is helping my father to remove the poison, and my mother is not dead yet. When I return to the palace, I will use a talisman to cure my brother's illness.]
[There will never be war in Daxia. ]
[Yes,] the system voice was also very firm, [I believe the little princess can definitely do it.]
The queen nodded silently. She narrowed her eyes and had other plans for Xiliang. She called the secret guards to give them some instructions.
The secret guard, who had been trained to not show his emotions, was stunned for a long while. He could not expect this.
The head of their Lin family, now the queen, actually wants to conquer Xiliang.
This……
Why not.
The secret guard's eyes lit up like stars and he immediately took the order and left.
The queen narrowed her eyes and patted the little princess in her arms. How could she allow anyone to snore beside her bed?
What's more, the King of Xiliang was in collusion with the Queen Mother, which meant he was an accomplice in harming her child. There was no way she could let him go.
Xiao Qianqian felt the anger of her mother and sighed silently, "Alas, it's a pity that I am too young now and can't say anything. If only I could remind my mother. 】
The system was silent for a while, and suddenly became excited, [Little Princess, your mother has ordered the secret guards to gather the Lin family army and prepare to capture Xiliang. ]
【What? 】
Xiao Qianqian babbled as he looked at his mother, then excitedly jumped in the queen's arms.
[The Queen Mother is mighty, I like her, I love her, Queen Mother, come here and let Qian Qian give her a big kiss. ]
Queen...
She kissed the little girl several times, then smiled helplessly and said, "If the little one keeps struggling, mother won't be able to hold her."
Xiao Qianqian stopped flapping his legs and stared at his mother with sparkling eyes.
The Queen finally had time to look at Jiang Mingzhu, "Leave your elder brother's body to the Imperial Doctor Feng. I believe he will recover soon. You still need to play the role of your elder brother for a while."
Jiang Mingzhu recovered from her shock and looked at the queen with eyes full of respect. She bowed and said, "Yes."
The Queen looked at Li Lanxin again and said, "Your two daughters are very good. Zhenzhu will help me take care of the zoo, and Baozhu will be my female official in charge of accounting."
Li Lanxin knelt down in front of the queen with a thud, and kowtowed solemnly to the queen, "Thank you, Queen, for your grace."
Oh my God, that’s great, she finally found a golden thigh for those girls.
Aunt He and Aunt Zhou, who were hiding in the corridor and hearing the Queen's order, also knelt silently in the direction of the Queen and kowtowed sincerely.
The queen thought for a moment, and then said to Jiang Mingzhu, "When your elder brother recovers and can attend court, you can come to my side and be a female official. Get familiar with the laws of Daxia, especially those for women."
"Yes," Jiang Mingzhu knelt down beside Li Lanxin with tears in her eyes and kowtowed to the queen solemnly, "Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty."
"Okay," the queen nodded and took Jiang Zhenzhu and Jiang Baozhu directly back to the palace.
She originally wanted to clean out the palace thoroughly before taking the two girls back, but the two girls couldn't wait and wanted to start familiarizing themselves with palace affairs in advance.
Xiao Qianqian couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "Oh my god, these two are really good kids who love to work. They are nothing like me. It's impossible for me to work."
system……
[Uh, whatever the little princess says is right. ]
【That is. 】
The queen listened to her daughter's thoughts and smiled bitterly.
Jiang Zhenzhu and Jiang Baozhu were, after all, two little girls of about thirteen or fourteen years old, so the queen indulged them a little and took them back to the palace.
After returning to the palace and handing the two little girls over to Luqiao, the Queen and Xiao Qianqian saw Xiao Yun and Lin You, with the same bruised and swollen faces, returning to Fengqi Palace dejectedly.
