The queen is spoiling the king and madly criticizing him for spoiling her

Although she was not part of the queen's dowry, she knew that as long as she worked hard beside the queen, she would be promoted in the future and her treatment would not be too bad.

But once she leaves the palace and gets married, she will not have such a good life. Moreover, she was sold into the palace by her parents. At that time, her brother wanted to marry a wife, so they sold her in exchange for the bride price.

She couldn't even think about getting married now. She was afraid that if she took a batch of money out of the palace and her parents found out, they would definitely come to plunder it. They might even force her to continue supporting the man in her family. Even if the Queen was kind enough to arrange a marriage for her, the other party would inevitably get annoyed after knowing her family background for a long time.

That will lead to resentment and blame towards each other, and no one will be happy.

On the contrary, she is now in the palace, and even if her parents have any ideas, there is nothing they can do. They can't come to the palace to make trouble unless they want to die.

"Your Majesty, what I said is also sincere. I don't want to get married. I just want to stay by your side and serve you for the rest of my life."

"Me too." Zhu Xia clearly wasn't as firm as Qiu Tao and Zhu Xi.

Those two men were so determined that they seemed capable of becoming officials.

Gu Jianchu knew that the two of them were serious.

As for Zhu Xia, Gu Jianchu has always known that she has a lot of private interactions with Yun He, and their relationship is not like that of ordinary palace maids and eunuchs. Yun He is a good, smart, and very capable person. If he were a safe person, she might have let them be together, but Yun He is a eunuch. Gu Jianchu always feels that she owes Zhu Xia if she lets them be together like this, and is also afraid that they will regret it in the future. She will have a good talk with Zhu Xia another day to see what this little girl thinks.

While they were talking, Yunhe walked in nonchalantly, "What are you talking about?"

At Gu Jianchu's signal, Qiutou and the others stood up.

Qiu Tao glanced at Zhu Xia and Yun He and teased, "Nothing much, it's just that the Empress is considering letting us leave the palace and marry, and she even said she would grant us all marriages."

"Really?" Yun He asked lightly, but a hint of hurt and loss flashed in his eyes.

Yes, he is not safe, why should he delay others?

Zhu Xia seemed to notice Yun He's disappointment and quickly said, "That's not the case. Didn't we all reject Her Majesty and say we would stay by Her Majesty's side to serve her? Qiutou, please stop talking nonsense here."

Zhu Xia glanced at Yun He again and quickly changed the subject, "You came to see the Empress, but is there something important?"

Gu Jianchu looked at the two of them with a smile on his face.

Nothing has happened yet, but this little girl has already protected Yunhe. She is afraid that Yunhe will think too much and get sad.

"News came from the Kingdom of Dongli that the Second Princess was to remarry the current Prince of Dongli. According to the Second Princess, the court officials had already agreed and were even helping to arrange the wedding. She also said that she had moved on and was not forced to marry the Prince of Dongli; she was willing. When the Emperor learned of the princess's second marriage, he didn't say anything, but simply sent someone to inform the Empress."

The emperor did not have a close relationship with these princes and princesses, so naturally he would not say much.

What's more, Xie Qingrou married voluntarily.

Gu Jianchu was not surprised by the attitude of Dongli Kingdom, because before coming to Jin State, the King of Dongli had already taken care of the affairs in the country and was just waiting for him to bring Xie Qingrou back so that they could get married. After all, they had all seen Xie Qingrou's achievements in Yelan Kingdom, and this was still an opportunity to continue to be friendly with Jin State. How could they possibly refuse? So this move was not surprising.

What surprised Gu Jianchu the most was King Dongli. He didn't expect that King Dongli was such a capable man. He was able to take down Xie Qingrou so quickly. Not only that, he also helped Xie Qingrou to completely get over the past.

Just based on this point, the two of them will not live too badly for the time being. As for the future, Gu Jianchu didn't dare to say it. Not to mention the two of them, she didn't even dare to say it for herself. After all, people's hearts are fickle.

"Who's getting married?" A cold voice came from outside, and then Xie Qingzhi appeared in the yard wearing a moon-white dress, followed by Gu Jianyue in a goose yellow dress.

Gu Jianyue came to the palace to see Gu Jianchu. Xie Ci'an specially gave Gu Jianyue the privilege to come to the palace to accompany the queen at any time. So after Gu Jianyue entered the palace, she met Xie Qingzhi in the corridor. Unexpectedly, Xie Qingzhi also came to Gu Jianchu's side. Both of them were going to Kunning Palace, so they hit it off and came together.

Gu Jianchu was still a little surprised that these two people came at the same time.

Gu Jianchu quickly had the two of them seated, then explained, "My second sister, Xie Qingrou, is getting married. News just came back from Dongli Kingdom that Xie Qingrou is marrying for the second time to the current King of Dongli, and the wedding will take place next month. I thought that even though this is her second marriage, I should at least send her a gift to show our appreciation for her. We must not let her be bullied by the current King of Dongli."

Upon hearing this, Xie Qingzhi was surprised, but apart from surprise, he also looked more reasonable. When Xie Qingrou followed King Dongli and chose to return to Dongli Kingdom, it had already explained everything. The relationship between these two people was not as innocent as it seemed. Unexpectedly, the news of their marriage came not long after they returned.

"What the Queen said is true. When the time comes, when the Queen sends someone to deliver the gift, please remember to tell me. I will add some as well and send someone to deliver it together, so that I don't have to send someone else to go through the trouble of sending someone. But since the Queen is preparing a gift, she can't just prepare one." Xie Qingzhi picked up the teacup beside her and took a sip, with a faint smile on his lips.

There is a childish look in his eyes and eyebrows.

"What does elder sister mean by this? Is she going to get married too?" Seeing the unnatural light in Xie Qingzhi's eyes, Gu Jianchu had a vague guess.

It has been some time since Xie Qingzhi and Dean Jiang resolved their relationship, and since then, the two have been keeping a secret. It is only a matter of time before they get married. Besides, Dean Jiang is not just playing around with Xie Qingzhi. Dean Jiang had been refusing to agree to Xie Qingzhi at the time, but he had no other intention in keeping Xie Qingzhi in suspense, which was to guide Xie Qingzhi to take this relationship seriously.

In front of such a person with a strong inner core, rich and stable spiritual world, even if Xie Qingzhi had a playful mentality, he would probably give up and would definitely take it seriously, otherwise Dean Jiang would not agree for the two to be together.

If this relationship was destined to end in failure, Dean Jiang probably wouldn't have started it.

"The Queen is so smart. She guessed it right away." Xie Qingzhi couldn't help but praise her.
