The fake daughter of a fallen ghost is reborn

"Marquis of Lin'an?"

Facing Huo Wuyou's sudden visit, Ge Jingyang was obviously not happy: "I am investigating a case, why are you barging in like this?"

As if he had just noticed Ge Jingyang's presence, Huo Wuyou smiled slightly: "I have no intention of obstructing Young Master Ge from handling the case, but, in compliance with the Queen Mother's decree, I need to take away a person who has nothing to do with this case."

"Oh?" Ge Jingyang's attitude became increasingly cold.

Huo Wuyou unfolded the scroll made of silk and said, "The Queen Mother has an order."

After saying that, he looked at Xue Zhiyi again with a happy smile on his lips.

Xue Zhiyi stood up, knelt down and said, "I pay my respects to the Queen Mother."

No matter how unhappy Ge Jingyang was, he could only kneel down and say, "Your Highness pays respect to the Queen Mother."

Fu Ling was already half dead at this moment, slumped on the ground, leaning on Mother Xing, or kneeling.

The Xue Mansion was too lively today. The waves of people appearing on stage had already made her numb. At this moment, she no longer had the energy to respond.

Huo Wuyou held his head high and chest puffed out, looking energetic. He held the scroll and said loudly, "The Empress Dowager has decreed that Xue Zhiyi has outstanding conduct, both moral integrity and talent, and his actions are in accordance with the rites and scriptures, and his words are in accordance with the pictures and history. He is summoned to the rear court and granted the position of Imperial Attendant of Jianzhang Palace. I decree this!"

After hearing this, Ge Jingyang was stunned.

Fu Ling, who was only half alive, almost came back to life. Blood gushed out of her mouth again, and she stared at Xue Zhiyi as if she was gnashing her teeth and sucking blood, as if she wanted to eat her alive.

Xue Zhiyi just raised her hand and said, "Thank you, Queen Mother, for your grace."

Ignoring the two murderous gazes, Huo Wuyou stepped forward and handed the Empress Dowager's decree to Xue Zhiyi.

When they separated, his fingertips accidentally brushed across Xue Zhiyi's palm, and he felt a subtle warmth in her palm.

But Ge Jingyang was not convinced: "Lin'an Hou, what do you mean? The Xue family is involved in a serious case. How can the family of a criminal official enter the palace as a female official?"

But Huo Wuyou was not in a hurry: "But Xue Zhiyi has been confirmed to be not from the Xue family. Moreover, there are many palace maids who are the wives of criminals and officials, and many of them were later promoted to female officials. The Queen Mother will make her own decision on this matter, and so will Your Majesty. If there is anything wrong, the Queen Mother will also make a decision. Could it be that the young master has already reached Jianzhang Palace?"

Ge Jingyang knew very well that if Xue Zhiyi entered the palace and tried to take action again, it would be troublesome. He did not want to let go easily of this bitch who designed to frame his sister.

"Since she is a criminal official's wife, her fate should be decided after your majesty has convicted her. If the queen mother still wants her to serve, it won't be too late to summon her to the palace. Now you want to take her away without any clear reason, Marquis Lin'an, do you want to disobey your majesty?"

Huo Wuyou was still smiling, but his phoenix eyes were a little colder: "Young Master Ge, Xue Zhiyi is not a member of the Xue family. Now the Queen Mother wants to select a commoner girl to enter the palace, but Young Master Ge stopped her. The one who wants to disobey the order is you."

Seeing Ge Jingyang choke, Huo Wuyou continued, "I must take this man away today. If there is anything wrong, please ask His Majesty to deal with it."

Ge Jingyang's face turned pale. Huo Wuyou knew very well that the emperor would not conflict with the empress dowager for such an insignificant woman, and would most likely acquiesce to the empress dowager's wishes.

Huo Wuyou, this useless dude, only knows how to oppress the empress dowager. How hateful!

Regardless of his obstruction, Huo Wuyou called out, "Chai Yue."

Huo Wuyou was accompanied by the female official Chai Yue.

"exist."

Huo Wuyou said, "Take her down, change her clothes, pack her belongings, and follow me into the palace."

"As ordered."

After she responded, she held the female official's clothes and walked to Xue Zhiyi: "Miss Xue."

Xue Zhiyi looked at Huo Wuyou. The smile on his face was arrogant and bright, but at this moment, it made her tense heart feel at ease.

When she heard Chai Yue calling her, she belatedly looked away.

Chai Yue said: "Miss Xue, please follow me to change clothes."

……

Jiang Xuexuan.

Chai Yue spread out the clothes. It was a narrow-sleeved azure blue shirt and a red silk skirt as red as the palace wall. After all, it was something from the palace, with exquisite embroidery and top-quality material.

"Miss Xue." Chai Yue said, "The clothes in the palace all have their own rules. You are probably not familiar with them. Take off your clothes and I will help you."

Xue Zhiyi smiled and said, "Thank you."

She did as she was told, took off her clothes and let Chai Yue do whatever she wanted.

"Sister Chai Yue." Xue Zhiyi thought for a moment and asked the question in his mind: "Do you know why the Queen Mother was willing to summon me to Jianzhang Palace?"

While comparing the clothes on her body, Chai Yue said, "Marquis Lin'an talked to the Queen Mother about this. I don't know what they said specifically, but the Queen Mother has her own decision."

She didn't say it out loud, but she didn't mean to fool Xue Zhiyi either. It was just that being in the palace, she had long been accustomed to being cautious with every word she spoke.

After she finished speaking, she continued softly, "Actually, Miss Xue, don't worry. The Queen Mother is kind and tolerant. As long as you don't betray her, she will be very kind to our people. Others will not dare to embarrass you for the sake of Jianzhang Palace."

Xue Zhiyi remained silent.

She entered the palace with the help of Huo Wuyou. She originally wanted him to help her find a job in the palace so that she would not die after leaving the Xue family because she had too many enemies. While she was in the palace, it was difficult for her enemies to take action against her.

She also thought that in the palace, she would have a better chance to find out some things and seize the opportunity to overthrow Prince Gong.

Therefore, she was afraid that she would not be able to live a peaceful and quiet life as Chai Yue expected.

But she didn't expect that Huo Wuyou would find a way to get her into Jianzhang Palace, and give her such a respectable status as a master attendant.

Now it seems that even if it is to repay Huo Wuyou's help today, she has to be more considerate in her actions so as not to drag down people who should not be dragged down.

"Sister Chai Yue." She suddenly called out.

Behind her, Chai Yue was putting clothes on Xue Zhiyi, and she responded, "Hmm?"

"From now on, we will serve together in Jianzhang Palace, so you can call me Zhiyi."

However, as soon as she finished speaking, she felt that Chai Yue behind her stopped moving.

Seeing Chai Yue remained silent, Xue Zhiyi smiled uncomfortably and explained, "Actually... I just feel that there will be no such thing as Miss Xue in the palace from now on. If Sister Chai Yue doesn't feel comfortable calling me like this..."

"That was not what I meant."

Chai Yue's breathing stagnated a little. She paused and said, "I just saw a scar on your shoulder... How did you get this scar?"

Hearing this, Xue Zhiyi blinked: "That scar?"

She did know that she had a scar on her shoulder, but it was located at the back and she couldn't see it. She only knew about it when Qiuyun mentioned it to her while they were bathing.

"It happened before I can remember. According to Madam Xue, I was burned by a servant accidentally using lamp oil when I was a child. What happened?"

"Nothing." Chai Yue said.
