The Regent Princess has run away again

Chapter 27 Borrowing People from the Government Office

Xue Mansion.

When she learned that Xue Zhiyu was recruited into the palace, Madam Xue could no longer hold back and smashed everything in the house.

"Damn it! How did this bitch get into the palace?"

Xue Yulu, who was sitting on the side, had hatred in her eyes, and her face had become thinner and thinner as she became more and more sour and mean.

Why did that cheap girl get such treatment? She had never been to the palace once, and she would never have the chance to go in again. Not only did that cheap girl get in, but she was also able to see the most noble Majesty. How could she live better than her!

"It's just entering the palace, why are you so angry, mother?"

As soon as Xue Yumei finished speaking, Madam Xue took over and said, "Your Majesty has been on the throne, but the throne is still vacant. At this time, you invited that bitch into the palace. Who knows if she will take the opportunity to seduce Your Majesty."

"That's right, that bitch is the best at seducing people, mother, we should think of a way!"

Xue Yumei didn't say anything else. She looked at her mother and her sister discussing the matter and said casually, "I heard that she took over the Stone Street business. I wonder what will happen if it fails?"

Mrs. Xue was not stupid. When she heard her eldest daughter say this, a sinister glint flashed in her eyes.

.......

"Ugh......"

"Miss, you have sighed several times. What happened in the palace?"

Xiao Qiu stood aside and watched her young lady sighing listlessly with her chin in her hand. She did not care about the title between master and servant and spoke hurriedly.

"Nothing, what time is it?"

"It's already time."

"Well, let's go to the government office and take my medicine box with us."

Although Xiaoqiu didn't know why the young lady suddenly wanted to go to the government office, she did it subconsciously.

Since the government office was not far from the Xue residence, Xue Zhiyu wanted to save the trouble of taking a carriage and planned to walk there.

"Miss, you'd better take a carriage. It's still a bit far."

Xue Zhiyu sighed helplessly, then looked at Xiaoqiu seriously, "Your young lady is not so weak that she can still walk over."

"But Miss..."

"Don't say buts, let's go," Xue Zhiyu said, and walked out of the Xue Mansion.

Xiaoqiu had no choice but to follow quickly with the medicine box.

When they arrived at the government office, they were stopped by two runners outside the door.

"Who is this? How dare you trespass into the government office?"

"I am Miss Xue, and I am here to see your master."

One of the palace officials looked Xue Zhiyu up and down, as if he had thought of something, and a malicious smile appeared on his lips, "Are you here to keep Lord Xu company?"

"How dare you! Do you know my lady..." Xiao Qiu was so angry that she wanted to rush up and beat this man up, but Xue Zhiyu stopped her with her hand and took out a jade token from her sleeve.

"Anyone who sees this jade token is seeing your Majesty. I don't want to repeat my words a second time."

The palace official, who originally had some ill intentions, looked very pale after seeing the jade token clearly, and finally he knelt down in fear.

The other one was better, but he was still very scared. She was obviously just a woman, but she had such cold eyes that it seemed as if he was in an ice pool.

"I will report this to the Master right away..."

As soon as the policeman finished speaking, he ran in to report without looking back. The remaining people who were still kneeling stupidly came to their senses, staggered to their feet and ran in.

Only Xue Zhiyu was left. Although Xiaoqiu saw that the two were frightened by the jade token, she became angrier and angrier when she thought about how that bastard dared to regard the young lady as that kind of woman.

"Miss! That man is really too much. If you hadn't stopped me, I would have beaten him up."

Xue Zhiyu put the jade token back into her sleeve, turned around and saw Xiaoqiu defending her, she couldn't help but laugh, "Well, look at me, your lady, I'm fine, right? Besides, it would be cheap to argue with such a person. I don't want you to have a conflict with him because I think it's unnecessary. You have to remember that not everyone is worth getting angry about, got it?"

"Okay, got it..."

The two waited for a while, and the two runners who went in came out again, and this time their attitude changed 180 degrees.

"I didn't know you were coming. Lord Xu has been waiting in the inner hall for a long time."

"Well, please lead the way."

One of the officials took them to the inner hall and then left.

In the inner hall, a man in a tuxedo was sitting on a Huanghuali chair. The tuxedo was embroidered with a picture of a crane, symbolizing a high official in the government office. His chubby face was full of calculation, and his eyes, the size of green beans, looked like he was still sleepy from a distance.

"So you are the daughter of Prime Minister Xue. Who are you looking for?"

"I came here hoping that Lord Xu could help me solve the issue on Stone Street. Lord Xu just needs to do as I say, and you don't need to worry about anything else," Xue Zhiyu said straight to the point without speaking in official language.

Lord Xu did not object, but he did not agree either. "Miss Xue is a straightforward person, and she is also smart."

"Master Xu, I am here to resolve this matter under the order of the Emperor. I hope you can assist me."

"That's easy, but I... don't have many people at Miss Xue's disposal, so what should I do?" He said with a distressed look.

Xue Zhiyu sneered in her heart. If it was someone else, he might believe what they said about not having enough manpower. But how could a place like the government office be short of people?

"Oh? Lord Xu, from what you said, are you trying to express your dissatisfaction with the current emperor? Is it because of the lack of manpower that wrongful cases are frequently made? It seems that I have to go to the palace tomorrow to report this situation to the emperor. No, I will go later, in order to smoothly resolve the Stone Street issue."

A few words frightened Lord Xu so much that his face turned pale. When he saw Xue Zhiyu turning around and walking towards the door, he frightened her so much that he stopped her and said, "Wait a minute, Miss Xue! I... I just forgot that the government office has recently added more runners, which must be enough for you to use. There is no need to report this matter to His Majesty. After all, His Majesty is busy with many things. I can still handle this little thing myself."

Sure enough, a little scare scared the fly away. Fortunately, she specially investigated this Lord Xu before coming, and found that there were so many unjust cases in just one year. He is simply... the scum of this society.

"Really? Then I'll have to trouble Master Xu."

"It's no trouble, no trouble. If you need anything, just tell me."

Seeing Lord Xu's flattering look, Xue Zhiyu felt that it was hypocritical, but she still spoke slowly, "In the next few days, I will ask your people to distribute my medicine to every household there. For safety reasons, I will give each messenger who goes to distribute the medicine a safety guarantee."

Afraid that Lord Xu would ask her what a mask was, she said the mask in her mouth was a guarantee of safety.

"You probably need a few runners so I can arrange them."

"I don't need many, maybe seven or eight. I'll come again tomorrow."

"Okay, okay, I'll take you out then."

"Ah."

After the two of them left the government office and walked away, Xiao Qiu couldn't help but speak from behind, "Miss, you are really able to hold back. Think about how Lord Xu looked down on us at the beginning, and then he bowed his head and bowed his head in the end. I can't believe it's the same person. It's more interesting than the drama in the theater."

"There's nothing we can do. He has the upper hand over me. How can we not surrender? Xiaoqiu, let's not go back home yet. Let's go to the medicine store."

"Okay, miss."
