Crazy Queen, Striving to Become the Most Beautiful Lady in the Harem

Chapter 22: Sending Someone Out of the Palace

In the dormitory

The faint fragrance of phoenix marrow slowly overflows from the incense burner

It was the hottest time of the day outside, but inside the Zhonghe Palace, it was not hot at all.

Because there is enough ice, the climate inside the temple is very moist and fresh.

Lin Junxue sat on the chaise longue, looking at Qiao Xin and Gu Yu kneeling on the ground.

She picked up the teacup, took a sip slowly, put it down, and didn't mean to say anything.

Danzhen stood aside, looking at Qiaoxin and Guyu, with a look of joy in her eyes.

Lin Junxue picked up a beauty fan and waved it gently.

She looked at the two people kneeling below, both of whom were very calm and not at all impetuous. She curled her lips and said, "Raise your heads."

Qiao Xin and Gu Yu, who had been kneeling without raising their heads since entering the hall, finally raised their heads and looked at Lin Junxue.

Lin Junxue said, "You two must have been carefully selected by my sister-in-law and sent to the palace. You are my sister-in-law's people, so I must trust you. You two know that the harem is full of dangers and my situation is extremely difficult. I need people who are absolutely loyal. Even if there is a trace of doubt, I will never keep them around. Do you understand what I mean?"

Lin Junxue looked at the two people in front of her, her eyes darker.

This "sister-in-law" whom she had never met was also a legendary and intelligent woman.

Danzhen said that Lin Xuxuan, her current brother, married a woman named Ye Yushuang.

This woman is not the daughter of a rich family, a prince, or a general, but the daughter of a merchant.

The Xie Dynasty was run by businessmen from generation to generation, with scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans at the bottom.

As the legitimate son of a first-rank military marquis, Lin Xuxuan's status is naturally noble.

Ten years ago, Lin Xuxuan was going to marry the daughter of a merchant, which caused a huge uproar in Kyoto and even reached the court.

After all, many people are interested in the identity of the future mistress of the First-Rank General's Mansion.

However, Lin Xuxuan directly said that if he did not marry Ye Yushuang in this life, he would never marry anyone else.

At that time, the late emperor who was still alive wanted to dissuade him, but the original owner's father Lin Wei wrote a letter, every word of which was sincere.

The late emperor couldn't let the Lin family be extinct, so those talkative ministers didn't dare to say anything more because of Lin Wei's hot temper.

In the end, this matter still followed Lin Xuxuan's wish

At that time, Danzhen said that the wedding was a grand occasion.

The Ye family is a wealthy family.

Ye Yushuang was deeply loved by her parents and learned business since she was a child.

After becoming an adult, Ye Yushuang followed her father and did business abroad, which is rare in today's world.

When Ye Yushuang married the general's mansion, she had a full ten-mile red dress.

The entire Kyoto was shocked by the Ye family's handiwork.

Now, Lin Wei and Lin Xuxuan are stationed outside the border, while Ye Yushuang is supporting the entire general's mansion alone, and has not lost the Ye family's business.

In the past year, the Ye family has expanded its business to other two countries.

Even many of the precious and rare things that Lin Junxue brought into the palace were prepared personally by her sister-in-law.

Lin Junxue also learned from Danzhen that Ye Yushuang loved her, Lin Xuxuan's only sister, very much and had made some plans for the original owner long ago.

The older girl Qiao Xin was sent into the palace by Ye Yu Shuang five years ago, and Gu Yu was sent in by her a month ago.

Some time ago, Danzhen contacted people outside the palace. After Ye Yushuang learned of her idea, she immediately sent a message in, saying that she would arrange it and asked her not to worry.

When Lin Junxue thought of this, she became more and more interested in Ye Yushuang.

In such a feudal dynasty, there could be a woman who dared to break the rules, pursue love, and had a lofty vision.

If this were put into a modern novel, she would definitely be the kind of heroine that ten time-traveling women couldn't beat.

If I have a chance, I must meet my sister-in-law Ye Yushuang.

Qiao Xin looked at Lin Junxue and kowtowed respectfully.

"Queen, don't worry. Guyu and I have both received Madam's favor. We both knew why we entered the palace the day we did. In this life, we will never betray the Lin family, Madam, or the Queen. If we have even a trace of disloyalty, we will be punished by heaven and earth, and fall into hell, never to be reborn."

Guyu also nodded and expressed his opinion.

"Empress, even if we die, we will not do anything that would harm you in the slightest. Please rest assured."

Lin Junxue looked at the two of them and nodded.

"Get up, I trust you two. From now on, all matters of Zhonghe Palace, big or small, will be left to you three to take care of."

Danzhen, Qiaoxin, and Guyu said in unison, "Don't worry, Madam, we will definitely live up to your trust."

Lin Junxue continued, "Before you entered the palace, did your sister-in-law ask you to do anything?"

Qiao Xin takes a step forward

"Your Highness, the young lady sent me to the palace first, and told me not to show any edge, not to stand on the side of any harem forces, to hide myself, and wait for the opportunity. The young lady said that if one day, Your Highness can wake up from your dream, you will definitely be able to use me. At that time, Your Highness will be my master. If this day does not come, the young lady will let me leave the palace with the palace maids when I reach the age, and she will arrange everything for me."

Lin Junxue's black eyes narrowed slightly, and there was clarity in her eyes.

Ye Yushuang is such a smart woman, she even thought of this.

She was getting more and more curious and wanted to meet Ye Yushuang.

Guyu continued, "Your Majesty, I entered the palace a month ago after receiving the news you sent from the palace. After entering the palace, I have been in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. I have relied on bribing the eunuchs in charge of affairs to avoid some of the Majesties' requests for help. I have been waiting for this opportunity. Three years ago, I began to learn the palace rules outside the palace. Before I entered the palace, the young lady said that the honor and disgrace of the General's Mansion depend on the Majesty. If the Majesty is well, the General's Mansion will be well. If something happens to the Majesty, the General's Mansion will not be able to escape. The young lady told me that from now on, I will do whatever the Majesty says."

Lin Junxue was silent for a few seconds, nodded, and couldn't help but sigh

"My sister-in-law is unparalleled in the world"

Qiaoxin, Guyu, and Danzhen looked at each other, feeling very strange.

Why does the Empress look like she has never seen her sister-in-law?

Before the three of them could think about it, they heard the sharp voice of the eunuch coming from outside the door.

"Your Majesty, several eunuchs in the harem want to see you and are waiting outside the palace gate."

Lin Junxue raised her eyebrows. It came quite quickly. The imperial edict was only issued this morning, but these people in charge of the harem had already smelled the scent and came here.

Since it's been delivered to our doorstep, that's fine. Let's just treat it as a practice session for Qiaoxin and Guyu, or as a modern interview assessment.

She should also take a look at what kind of talents Ye Yushuang has given her?

Lin Junxue said, "I am tired. Qiaoxin and Guyu, go and get rid of these people."

Qiao Xin and Gu Yu also knew what Lin Junxue meant, and knew that the Queen was testing them.

The two nodded and said, "Madam, please take a rest. We will send these people away right away."
