The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise

After a busy year, Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty finally got some rest these days.

When he had some free time, he thought of the little girl far away in Anren County, recalled the time they spent together, and couldn't help but curl his lips.

"Your Majesty, what happy thing are you thinking of?"

Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty looked at Li Jiang with a smile on his face.

"I was just wondering how that girl Yi Yi spent the New Year."

When Li Jiang heard the emperor mention Princess Yongkang, he was still a little shocked.

"Yongkang County Lord has someone specially gifted by the Emperor, who will definitely be able to take good care of her."

Speaking of this, Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty felt slightly annoyed.

"When I sent people there, I should have given her a few more people."

Li Jiang was shocked. The emperor was too fond of the county lady. But thinking that the emperor was in high spirits, he didn't want to pour cold water on him, so he went along with what he said.

"This is a difficult matter. The county lady is so capable. The next time she makes a contribution, the emperor can make up for it all at once."

After hearing his words, Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty immediately stopped worrying.

"That's right. Hey, today is the second day of the lunar year. Let's go and see the Queen."

Li Jiang knelt down and saluted, and replied respectfully, "Yes, I will arrange it right away."

In Fengyi Palace, the queen was wearing a bright yellow phoenix robe. At the age of 40, she still had charm.

"My lady, you haven't looked well lately. I guess you are too tired. Why don't you take a rest and recuperate?"

The noble queen leaned on the chaise longue, looking lazy and beautiful.

"No need. I'll just rest here for a while."

Before the head maid Bai Yuechu could respond, the voice of the eunuch announcing the news was heard.

"The Emperor has arrived!"

The queen was startled when she heard this, and quickly opened her eyes, sat up straight, then stood up and walked to the center of the main hall to bow.

When a bright yellow figure appeared, the queen hurried to greet him.

"Your Majesty, I respectfully welcome you. May Your Majesty be blessed with good health and happiness."

"Slave, please see your Majesty."

"This slave is here to see the Emperor."

Emperor Yuan Shun came over and helped the queen up, "Queen, please stand up!"

The Queen was delighted to see the Emperor personally helping her.

"I thank you, Your Majesty."

Emperor Yuan Shun held the empress's hand tightly and walked towards the chaise longue. After he sat down, the empress gently stroked her phoenix robe and sat down.

"Your Majesty, have you been to the Queen Mother today?"

"I went there, but I only stayed for a while and then left."

At the same time, Concubine Zhang of Xianghe Palace was so angry that she broke a teacup.

"What did you say? The emperor went to the queen's place?"

Humph, on the second day of the new year, the emperor actually went to the queen's place, which made her very unwilling.

Not long after, the Empress Dowager, who was in Fushou Palace, learned that Concubine Zhang had broken the teacup.

"Hmph, smash it. Just keep an eye on it."

As the empress dowager's maidservant, Nanny Gui performed her duties conscientiously.

"Yes."

A distinguished guest came to the county lady's mansion. Shen Jiarou looked at the approachable Uncle Zhong and smiled gently and brightly.

"Uncle Zhong, you've come all this way. Thank you for your hard work."

"You are joking, my lord. The journey is not very far. I can bear it."

In response to his address, Nanny He frowned slightly and reminded him respectfully.

"Boss Zhong, my master has been promoted to county lady by the emperor."

Hearing this, Uncle Zhong looked up in surprise, then quickly changed his address after realizing it.

"I am sorry for the rudeness. I am honored to meet you, the county lord. Congratulations."

Seeing that he was serious, Shen Jiarou smiled brightly.

Time flies, it is already March, peach blossoms are flying, willow branches are drooping, and it is a new month again.

Nanny He asked people to prepare the things to take back to the town, and the group headed towards the town.

The five people sitting in the carriage were chatting and laughing all the way, so the journey was not boring at all.

The carriage was driven by the mansion guards and Bao Zhiqing, but he was not primarily responsible for driving.

When the carriage was still more than ten kilometers away from the town, it was surrounded.

"This road is built by me. If you want to pass this road, you need to leave money for passage."

Shen Jiarou, who was in the car, looked down as she heard this. She opened the car window curtain and looked outside. Everyone had a knife in their hands. For a moment, she was speechless.

She just returned to town, how could she be robbed?

Nanny He was terrified at this time. Her master was still in the car. What should she do?

Shen Jiarou thought it was better to have less trouble than more, so she gave instructions to Bao Zhiqing at the door.

"Protection guard, go and give them a bag of silver to prevent any trouble."

Bao Zhiqing understood what his master meant, took out some silver and threw it to the person who had just spoken, who happened to catch it.

"Brother, this is not light."

The leading man understood what he meant and spoke with a sneer.

"Brothers, tie them up for me."

The five people in the car were stunned with astonishment. Didn't they give them money? Why did they arrest them?

"It's over. Are we going to die here?"

Nanny He was very displeased when she heard Ruan Qingling's words.

"If you can't speak, then shut up." The master is still in the car, how could she have no sense of propriety at all.

Ruan Qingling, who was scolded by Nanny He, immediately shut up.

"I know my mistake."

Shen Jiarou thought to herself, now that she had traveled through time and space, was she going to lose her life here?

Two hours later, they were taken to a bandit den. Shen Jiarou's small body was pushed and almost kissed the ground.

Ouch, her old back was exerting so much force, it was likely to kill her.

The person who brought them here had his eyes light up when he saw the bracelets on Nanny He, Ruan Qingling and Yaer's hands.

“This bracelet is very beautiful.”

A big man took off the bracelet on Ruan Qingling's wrist with one hand. Ruan Qingling was frightened and tried to stop him.

"You can't touch my bracelet. It was given to me by my master."

However, she was weak and the other party was too strong, so she was dragged to the ground and cried in pain.

"You bully people."

Seeing her tearful appearance, the other party became lustful and reached out to pinch her chin.

"Hey, you have a long mark, why don't you serve me, your brother?"

Ruan Qingling was frightened by him, but also disgusted by him.

When Shen Jiarou saw it, she spoke immediately.

"Haha, if you are not afraid of getting sick, you can try it."

Hearing her words, the other party was stunned.

"What do you mean?"

Shen Jiarou sat cross-legged on the ground quietly. "What else could it be? An infectious disease. The doctor said that close contact with her could easily lead to sudden death. But fortunately, as long as we get through the first night, we'll be fine."

When the other party heard this, he took three steps back in fright.

"Damn it, you almost made me sick. Humph, you damn girl, you are just looking for death."

Seeing that the other party had fallen into the trap, Shen Jiarou continued to add fuel to the fire.

"Uncle, please be kind and take care of her somewhere else. Look after us, the elderly, the weak, the women and the children. Don't let them get infected and die at night."

Ruan Qingling was shocked when she heard her words. When did she get an infectious disease? What was the county lady talking about?

When the other party heard this, he was so scared that he quickly closed the door.

"You're overthinking it. You two should die together. You can have each other's company on your way to the underworld."

Ruan Qingling wanted to cry when she heard what her master said. She was fine, how could she get sick? It sounded serious.

Seeing that she was about to cry, Shen Jiarou immediately spoke to comfort her.

"Do you still want to go back alive?"

Sure enough, Ruan Qingling stopped crying immediately, and Shen Jiarou sighed.

"Wait, then."
