The little heroine investigates a mysterious case

Gu Jingfeng walked quickly to the door of the side hall and suddenly stopped. He had a bad premonition.

Could it be that I haven't been to the palace to pay my respects to Concubine Shu for a long time, and Concubine Shu was petty and sent the wet nurse to teach me a lesson?

Gu Jingfeng hurriedly rubbed his face to stretch his facial muscles.

He stepped into the room and gave the wet nurse who was drinking tea a manly smile.

"Grandma Wu's presence has brought honor to our humble palace. Jingfeng pays respect to Grandma Wu! I wish her good health and a long life!"

Gu Jingfeng thought to himself that one should not hit someone who smiles at him, and even if he had to go to war to find someone to blame, he would only do so when necessary!

The wet nurse quickly stood up and helped Gu Jingfeng up.

"Your Highness is too polite. I am so embarrassed!"

Gu Jingfeng helped the wet nurse sit back on the chair, and he also lifted his robe and sat beside her.

"Grandma Wu, long time no see. I've been having some troubles at home these past few days, so I haven't been to the palace to pay my respects to Concubine Shu.

Didn't the Queen send you here to scold me?"

"Your Highness, you are joking. There are so many beautiful women in your house, and every day is a happy thing. How can there be any troubles?

How could Her Majesty scold the Prince for no reason? Her Majesty sent me here to ask the Prince for a favor!"

Gu Jingfeng immediately became interested. Whenever his father, the emperor, the imperial concubine, and his fifth brother had important matters, they would definitely look for his second brother Gu Jiancheng. So when would it be his turn?

It seems that this matter must be of great importance and he is the only one who can do it.

Gu Jingfeng rubbed his hands excitedly, with a sincere smile on his face.

"Oh? Grandma, tell me what's going on."

"This matter is extremely important to Your Majesty, and also extremely important to His Royal Highness the Virtuous King. Your Majesty and I have been thinking about it for three whole days and three nights!

I've thought about all the candidates I could think of, picked and chose, compared and selected again, and finally decided that you are the one! "

"What's going on? I'm so anxious, please tell me!"

The wet nurse saw that Gu Jingfeng was so anxious that he unconsciously clenched his hands into fists, and stared at her with eyes full of expectation and urgency.

The wet nurse was not in a hurry, she just didn't want to say it right away.

She must lay the groundwork thoroughly, whet the King's appetite, and leave His Majesty the King no room for refusal.

The nurse coughed twice and cleared her throat.

"Everyone in our Xia country knows you. Your Highness, you are a man of great talent and elegance, and have met countless people!

You have trained all the ladies in the mansion to be clever, smart and considerate. You are truly a man among men!"

After the nanny finished speaking, she gave Gu Jingfeng a thumbs up and nodded vigorously three times up and down.

Gu Jingfeng felt overwhelmed when he thought of the ladies who were training in the back garden.

He had a hard time expressing his feelings, so he could only chuckle at the wet nurse and nod perfunctorily.

"I'm so ashamed and unworthy. I don't know what the Queen wants me to do."

The wet nurse picked up the teacup and took a sip, then put it down and shook her head with an embarrassed look on her face.

“Our queen originally wanted to ask His Majesty for help, but since this matter involves our daughter-in-law, it seems inappropriate between father and son.

I want to ask His Royal Highness Prince Cheng for help, but Princess Cheng is in confinement after giving birth, so I am afraid of causing misunderstandings from her.

Your Majesty is too embarrassed to speak up, and I've been thinking about it and maybe I should swallow my pride and give it a try, but..."

Gu Jingfeng stood up suddenly. Even his father and second brother, Concubine Shu, couldn't do it. This matter was simply too big!

If things go wrong, it may affect the destiny of the country, and may even be related to the diplomatic relations among the three countries!

Gu Jingfeng stood in front of the wet nurse.

"Are you trying to drive me crazy? No matter what it is, since you've said it to this extent, I promise you and the queen!

I, Gu Jingfeng, will do this properly even if it means going through fire and water, even if it means my life is in jeopardy! "

The wet nurse clapped her hands and laughed.

"I've always said that His Royal Highness the True King is a wonderful man. Your Majesty will be absolutely assured in leaving this matter to His Royal Highness the True King!"

Gu Jingfeng was not a pushover either. Seeing the wet nurse constantly teasing him, he got a little angry.

"You still won't tell me, right? If you don't, I'll leave!"

The wet nurse hurriedly stood up, stood on tiptoe, put her hand into Gu Jingfeng's ear, and whispered a few words.

Gu Jingfeng's expression changed drastically. His eyes widened, his mouth opened wide, his gaze was dull, and his whole body was stiff. This was completely inconsistent with the glorious mission he had imagined.

He slowly lowered his head and looked at the nurse, who was two heads shorter than him, in disbelief. Was what he just heard human words? How could it be so out of place?

He didn't believe his own ears, and even less did he believe his nanny's words.

"What?! The Queen actually asked me to teach my fifth brother how to sleep with his woman?!"

The nanny smiled and covered her mouth with her hands.

"Your Highness has already promised me and promised the Queen, so you won't go back on your word now, right?"

Gu Jingfeng paced back and forth anxiously with a red face.

"I know how to sleep with my woman, but how do you want me to teach my fifth brother?

Besides, even if I teach my fifth brother, it won’t work if Princess Xian doesn’t know how to do it!

By then, she'll think my fifth brother is bullying her, and if she gets angry, she'll kick him away. It'll be more trouble than it's worth!"

The wet nurse had already thought of a backup plan, and Gu Jingfeng's excuse was completely useless to her.

"Your Highness, please relax. I, the virtuous princess, will teach you! The time is set for tomorrow afternoon after lunch!

I will go to the Xianwang Mansion, and Your Highness will come with me. We will take the Xianwang away and teach him however you want. It’s all up to you!

As long as we teach you until you learn, the mission is accomplished! Let's do both. What do you think?"

Gu Jingfeng patted his head and pondered, when suddenly an idea flashed in his mind and he came up with a brilliant idea.

This trick is absolutely perfect. It can not only complete the task assigned by Concubine Shu, but also avoid getting into trouble and causing misunderstandings among the ladies in the mansion.

Otherwise, if the ladies knew that he had taken on such a ridiculous task, they would all make a big fuss.

"Teach me however you want? Okay! With your Majesty's words, I reluctantly agree.

Please hurry back and report to the Queen. I promise to complete the mission smoothly and successfully!"

That night, Qiuju helped Zhao Xuan finish washing up, cleaned up the bathroom, and was about to leave.

Zhao Xuan moved closer to the bed, patted it and called Qiuju.

"You sleep with me tonight, and we two sisters can have a good talk."

Qiuju thought about leaving the palace early tomorrow morning and felt reluctant to leave Zhao Xuan. She didn't act pretentiously at this time. She took off her clothes and lay on the bed next to Zhao Xuan.

"Boss, I still like to call you that."

"You can yell all you want in private. Do you want to know why I chose you to come to Liyang to get married with me?"

"why?"

"At that time, everyone went out to work and came back every month to pay back the money. You were responsible for keeping the accounts. I have seen the account books, and it is clear at a glance who paid back how much money each month.

I think you are careful and steady, so I chose you to be my personal maid. Chunlan is lively and quick-witted, so the two of you complement each other perfectly."

Qiuju chuckled and told Zhao Xuan the story.

"The night you chose me, I didn't sleep all night. I felt like I had a long way to go and was extremely scared.

The mountain king disguised himself as a princess and came to Liyang to be the queen. This is out of the ordinary!

I am a country girl accompanying you into the palace as your personal maid. What if something goes wrong and I get caught?

I really wanted you to choose someone else and not me, but Xia He persuaded me.

He said that it was a blessing for you that the boss liked you, and even if you made any mistakes, the boss wouldn't blame you. That's why I was so nervous to follow you to Liyang!"

After hearing this, Zhao Xuan burst into laughter and winked at Qiuju.

"Then do you feel like you're on a pirate ship? Do you want to jump off at any moment?"
