Cai Er was so scared that she knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. It is my fault. I will never do it again."

After listening to Cai'er's words, Emperor Yuanwu's expression became even darker.

"Where are the other minions? Why are you the only one here?"

Cai Er said tremblingly, "In reply to the emperor, Madam Zuo is served by only one servant. The eunuchs and maids in the palace heard that Madam Liang's palace was short of a few servants, so they went to help."

Go over and help?

Emperor Yuanwu sneered, "What a good guy to go over and help."

"Your Majesty." Zuo Qianrou broke free from Emperor Yuanwu's hand and knelt on the ground: "I like quietness. I really don't need so many people to serve me. Cai'er is enough to serve me alone. I asked them to go."

"That's ridiculous. No matter what, you are also..."

When Emperor Yuanwu said this, he suddenly fell silent.

Only then did he suddenly remember.

Zuo Qianrou had been in the palace for a long time and had served him in bed, but he had never given her a title or position.

In addition, during this period, the previous dynasty was constantly facing problems and he rarely came to the harem, so he indeed neglected this matter.

The Queen has been ill.

Shu Guifei was only a Guifei, so naturally she did not have the right to position herself as a concubine.

"Wu Jixiang, pass on my decree to confer the title of noble lady on Zuo Qianrou." Emperor Yuanwu lowered his eyes and glanced at Zuo Qianrou who was kneeling on the ground: "Since you like quietness, the title will be Jing."

"Your Majesty." Zuo Qianrou slowly raised her head, her eyes were red, and the corners of her lips twitched as if she was trying hard to suppress something.

Emperor Yuanwu helped her up from the ground and said, "I have been busy with the affairs of the former court these days. It is my negligence that caused you to suffer injustice in the palace. I will definitely compensate you in the future."

"No, I'm not wronged." Zuo Qianrou shook her head and raised her hand to wipe the tears from her eyes: "When I was young, I often saw my mother cleaning the house. Every blade of grass and every tree in the house was made by my mother herself."

"At that time, I curiously asked mother why she didn't let the servants do these things."

"My mother said that I should clean up my own home to feel at ease."

"I am blessed to be able to enter the palace and serve the emperor. Regardless of whether the emperor will remember me or not, I have already regarded the palace as my home."

"I also want to be like my mother, and plant every blade of grass and every tree in our home with my own hands."

Emperor Yuanwu listened to Zuo Qianrou's words and his eyes trembled slightly.

There are many concubines in this palace, and this is the first time he has heard someone say that they will treat the harem as their own home.

Even the queen would not say such words.

Emperor Yuanwu was somewhat moved for a moment.

"You can grow every blade of grass and every tree, but it is unreasonable to have only one maid to serve you." Emperor Yuanwu turned around and said, "Wu Jixiang, go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and pick a few diligent and sensible maids to serve Concubine Jing. You should do this yourself."

"Yes!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Zuo Qianrou lowered her eyes and said softly.

"I still have to go to court. I will come to see you in the evening. It is autumn now and the weather is getting colder in the morning and at night. Next time you get up so early, wear more clothes to avoid catching a cold."

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I respectfully send you off. Long live the emperor."

Zuo Qianrou looked at Emperor Yuanwu's back as he left, then slowly stood up, a sly smile slowly forming at the corner of her lips...
