My Fair Princess: The Queen's Rebirth

Chapter 6 Erkang goes to the slum to deliver a message

Concubine Ling watched as the duck she had obtained was taken away by the Queen.

She was so angry that she wanted to bite her back teeth to pieces.

"Your Majesty, why are you still so unhappy?"

After Empress Dowager Cixi and the Empress left, Concubine Ling stepped forward and took the Emperor's arm.

"I'm just a little tired. Please accompany me in to rest."

The emperor took Concubine Ling's hand and held her tightly in his arms.

"Your Majesty, I bet you want to bring Ziwei into the palace right away." Concubine Ling glanced at the emperor furtively. "Ziwei doesn't know Xiaoyanzi is injured yet. Wait until Xiaoyanzi is almost healed before bringing her into the palace. Otherwise, Ziwei will definitely feel guilty seeing Xiaoyanzi injured like this. It would be better to send someone to the slum to inform her first, so as to save her from worrying. What do you think?"

"You are very thoughtful, Concubine Ling. Who do you think is the most appropriate person to send?"

"Your Majesty, what do you think of Fujia Erkang?"

"Then as you said, Erkang is quite steady and prudent. I will send someone to the Scholar's Mansion to tell him to go to the courtyard immediately and bring Ziwei to the palace in two days."

The emperor waved to the young eunuch at the door.

The young eunuch immediately understood what the emperor meant.

After all, I am serving in front of the emperor, so I naturally have to understand the emperor's intentions thoroughly, otherwise my head will be moved sooner or later.

"I will go to the scholar's residence and inform Master Erkang right away."

"Go quickly, go quickly."

In the large courtyard.

Liu Qing, Liu Hong, Ziwei and Jinsuo were all sitting there feeling restless.

They haven't eaten or slept properly for several days.

There has been no news of Xiaoyanzi for five days.

Ziwei sat in the yard and wiped her tears quietly.

"Miss, please stop crying. You've been crying for five days."

Jinsuo looked at the young lady sitting on the stone bench with heartache.

I felt very uncomfortable.

Two days ago, Liu Qing and Liu Hong went to the palace gate to inquire about the news about the enclosure. The guard on duty said that an injured female assassin was captured in the enclosure and was now being prepared to be brought back to the palace for treatment.

They said that the female assassin was most likely Xiaoyanzi.

The more Jinsuo thought about it, the more annoyed he became.

If I hadn't given Xiaoyanzi a bad idea and encouraged her to go into the enclosure alone with the token, this wouldn't have happened.

"Jinsuo, what should we do? That person must be Xiaoyanzi." Ziwei wiped the tears from her face. "Xiaoyanzi must be in a very dangerous situation now. It's all my fault. I've hurt her."

"Miss, don't say that. Calm down and stop crying. If you keep crying like this, you will go blind."

Jinsuo stepped forward and held Ziwei's hand tightly to comfort her.

"Jinsuo, if it weren't for me, Xiaoyanzi wouldn't have had the accident. Now that there's been no news from her, how can I not be worried?"

Ziwei kept sobbing.

"Miss, why don't we go find that Lord Liang?"

"Master Liang?"

When Ziwei heard the three words "Lord Liang", she suddenly raised her head and looked at Jinsuo, Liu Qing and Liu Hong.

Now they have no choice but to ask Lord Liang for help.

"Jinsuo, are you crazy? That Lord Liang is a bad guy, how could he possibly help us? Have you forgotten that Lord Liang kicked you and Ziwei out before?"

Liu Qing heard Jinsuo suggest going to find that bastard.

He stretched out his arms to stop Jinsuo and Ziwei.

Bastard Liang is not a good person at all.

I don't know how he became this official.

"Liu Qing, please let us go find Lord Liang."

Jinsuo wanted to slip away from Liu Qing.

But he was no match for Liu Qing at all.

No matter where she went, Liu Qing could easily block her way.

"Oh, I'm so angry!" Jinsuo stomped his feet on the ground helplessly, then turned and ran to his mistress, frowning and saying, "Miss, what should I do?"

After receiving the emperor's order, Erkang went straight to the slum. After some inquiries, he finally found the slum that Xiaoyanzi mentioned on the outskirts of the west city.

He stood at the gate of the slum for a long time, staring blankly.

"Hey, who are you?"

Liu Hong saw a strange but handsome man standing at the door and immediately became curious.

In fact, she had discovered him a long time ago.

At first, she thought the man was just there to watch the fun, but after a while, he didn't turn around and leave, so Liu Hong immediately walked to the door and shouted at him, "What's wrong with you? If not, get out of here quickly. We don't have time for you."

Erkang was inevitably surprised to see this person's bad tone, but he did not get angry with her.

He bowed politely to the people in the courtyard and said, "My name is Fu Erkang, the eldest son of Grand Secretary Fu Lun, and the imperial guard of the current emperor. I just saw you discussing something inside, so I didn't come in to disturb you."

"Since you know we are discussing something, please leave here immediately."

Liu Hong turned around and prepared to take Liu Qing, Jinsuo and Ziwei back to the house.

This man is really incomprehensible.

"Miss, may I ask if Miss Ziwei lives here?"

Erkang asked quickly after she had just taken a few steps.

Liu Hong stopped immediately when she heard him mention Ziwei.

She looked at the man suspiciously and asked curiously, "Who are you to her? What do you want from her? And why should I believe what you just said?"

"Miss, I really didn't lie to you." Erkang quickly took out a badge from his waist to prove his identity and showed it to her. "My name is really Fu Erkang. If you don't believe me, just look."

Liu Hong took the badge from his hand with half belief and half doubt.

But she looked at it from the front and back several times and couldn't see any clues.

Liu Hong: Isn't this obviously bullying me because I'm not literate?

She pursed her lips and said, "Wait a minute, whether what you said is true or not is not up to me alone to decide. I won't give you this waist badge for now. I'll take it in and show it to them."

"Girl, please."

Erkang was a careful person, and seeing her say that, he didn't want to expose her little thoughts.

So she was allowed to go in with her badge for verification.

Anyway, their kung fu is no match for mine.

It's easy to get the badge back from them.

After a long time.

Liu Hong took the badge and returned it to Master Fu, and made a "please come in" gesture to him.

Erkang followed him into the yard and bowed to everyone.

"Master Fu, I am Ziwei." Ziwei pulled Jinsuo and knelt on the ground without saying a word. "The one next to me is my personal maid, her name is Jinsuo."

When Erkang saw the two women in front of him giving him such a great gift, he was so scared that he took two steps back.

"Please stand up, ladies. I really cannot accept such a generous gift from you two."

Erkang took a step forward and then reached out to help them up from the ground.

Ziwei stood up straight and bowed slightly, her eyes nervous. "Ziwei pays her respects to Master Fu. I want to ask you something. Did you capture a woman in the enclosure?"

Erkang nodded.

After getting the answer she wanted, Ziwei continued to ask, "Is Xiaoyanzi safe and sound now? Is she still in the palace?"

"Miss Ziwei, Xiaoyanzi is doing well now, and she has handed the two tokens to the emperor intact. The emperor asked me to come to the courtyard this time to inform you of Xiaoyanzi's physical condition, and I will bring you to the palace to meet him in two days."

Erkang told everyone present everything that had happened in the past few days, but he did not tell them that Xiaoyanzi had been unconscious for several days after being shot by an arrow.

"That's great, Miss." Jinsuo's eyes instantly turned red with joy when she heard that Xiaoyanzi was fine. "Xiaoyanzi is fine, it's really great, otherwise I would really feel guilty."

"Then I'll take my leave now. Next, please prepare your luggage, ladies. I will come to pick you up and bring you to the palace in two days."

"Okay, I'm sorry."

"This is all my job, you don't have to be polite, young lady."
