However, fortunately, after the companion reading thing is over, Jiang Muhan will take her out of the palace.
The little Zaizai thanked him timidly, turned around and ran back to Jiang Muhan, holding Jiang Muhan's hand and leaving the palace without looking back.
When they left, the queen said to the emperor, "It's incredible that a person like Jiang Muhan would be so interested in a little baby."
The emperor narrowed his eyes and said, "The old prince is kind to him. Maybe it's because this child has a bit of the old prince's look in his eyes and his life experience is similar, so he thinks so highly of him."
"I heard that the Duke of Dingguo doesn't value this real daughter. If he adopts this child, he is going against the Duke of Ding. Dog bites dog, which is good."
The emperor smiled contemptuously and said, "As long as your weakness is exposed, you won't be afraid that you won't be able to control it. When this child enters the palace in the future, remember to get close to her and win over this little daughter so that you can deal with Jiang Muhan."
The Queen immediately leaned over and said, "Yes, Your Majesty."
The queen rolled her eyes.
The checks and balances between the monarch and his ministers are important, but...this little daughter is indeed useful to her little Huanghuang, so she is naturally happy to follow the trend!
So, the queen said, "Since Jiang Muhan really wants to seek justice for the little daughter, let me take action." ?.?????.???
"Come here, prepare a generous gift and send it to Duke Dingguo's mansion."
At the same time, the atmosphere in Duke Dingguo's mansion was extremely tense.
Although Jiang Muhan verbally agreed to Qiao Rong entering the palace as a companion, there was no news from him in the next few days.
Therefore, Qiao Rong's training to be the princess's companion became even more intense.
After all, Jiang Muhan has a perverse and unpredictable temperament, and he doesn't care about reputation or other people's opinions. There is nothing they can do if he doesn't admit what he said.
Qiao Rong could only try to register first, compete with other wealthy families one by one, and get to that position step by step.
As the date of registration and selection for companion reading is getting closer, Qiao Rong's life becomes even more difficult. Every day before the rooster crows, she has to get up to read, draw and play the piano. At night, when the adults are asleep, she has to study hard for fear of missing something. One step at a time.
After all, she was just a six-year-old baby. Qiao Rong was full of resentments every day, her temper became more and more irritable, and dogs passing by would get kicked for no apparent reason.
On this day, Qiao Rong was practicing the piano at home with a numb look on her face. Suddenly Lu Wanrong ran into the piano room with a happy face and said, "Someone from the palace is here and they are talking about the princess's companionship. Your place must be confirmed." !”
"Jiaojiao, come out quickly to receive the order!"
Qiao Rong opened her eyes wide in surprise.
Didn't that bad guy eunuch lie to her? Did he really find a place for her to be the princess' companion?
Then her hard work these days was finally not in vain!
Thinking about the hard work these days, Qiao Rong narrowed her mouth and shed tears of grievance.
She hurriedly wiped away her tears with a handkerchief, raised her head proudly, and followed Lu Wanrong to receive the order.
but:
"The Queen's decree has arrived——"
The eunuch read in a sharp voice, "Qiao Zhi, the daughter of Duke Dingguo, is well-behaved and knows etiquette. She is extraordinary and has the Holy Heart. Therefore, I have given the princess the honor to read with you. She will enter the palace at the right time without delay."
The eunuch smiled and said, "The Duke's wife has really raised a good child. Not only the emperor and the queen like her, but also the princess misses her every day. It is a great blessing to have a daughter like this in the Duke's palace. All of these are It's a gift from the Queen, please accept it quickly, Madam."
Lu Wanrong finally recovered from the meaning of the imperial edict and laughed a few times, "Yes, I will accept the edict."
"Jiaojiao," Lu Wanrong said deliberately, "I don't know where your sister has gone. You are the most sensible and well-behaved person. Why don't you take over the order for your incompetent sister?"
"You are joking," the eunuch said, "The little daughter is with Governor Jiang. She is very well-behaved and sensible. Madam, please don't talk nonsense."
Lu Wanrong:…………
Lu Wanrong's face turned red, "...Yes, thank you father-in-law for the suggestion."
She secretly rewarded the eunuch who delivered the order with some money, and then she found out that it was Jiang Muhan who took Qiao Zhi directly to the imperial court to meet the little princess, because the little princess liked Qiao Zhi very much, and even after Qiao Zhi's appearance, she became ill. Great, the emperor and the empress were so happy that they personally appointed Qiao Zhi as the princess's companion.
If I hadn't felt that giving too many rewards at once was not good for children, I might have wanted to make Xiao Qiao Zhi the county head!
Lu Wanrong then sent the eunuch who was delivering the order away with a complex expression.
As soon as the eunuch left, Qiao Rong angrily knocked over the dowry filled with jewelry, "Mother, I want to see the princess too!"
"Qiao Zhi, a fool, can win the princess's love. I am good at playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting, so the princess will definitely like me more! By then, I will also be able to directly get the status of the princess's companion!"
Lu Wanrong bit her lips, looking embarrassed.
Qiao Rong said reluctantly, "Mother, you are the wife of a duke, and you have a royal title. Why is it so difficult to meet a princess in the palace? Is it worth being so hesitant?"
Lu Wanrong hurriedly coaxed, "Okay, okay, mother will take you to the palace to meet the princess tomorrow."
Anyway, the Duke is fighting in Western Xinjiang. Now that the war is tense, the Queen will definitely give up this favor.
