Chapter 201 - Reward
However, after learning her lesson from last time, she didn't dare to stay here for too long.
After swimming for a while, he quickly reached the shore. He looked around and called the maidservant over to get himself some clean clothes.
The servant girl quickly went to Wei Qing's hall. Ever since Wei Qing had left the capital, Die'er had been worrying about her everyday. When she heard that she had returned, she quickly flew out.
"Eldest Miss!"
Suddenly hearing Die'er's voice, Wei Qing was overjoyed.
"Good Die'er, why have you lost weight?" Wei Qing sized Die'er up.
"Didn't Eldest Miss lose weight as well?" Die'er stared at her with teary eyes, her voice choked with sobs.
Wei Qing helped her wipe away the tears on her face, and said: "I have to catch all these golden bean that have fallen, if not it would all be a sin!"
The maidservant took the new clothes. "Esteemed wangfei, leave the clothes by the door."
Wei Qing replied with an "En" and asked Die'er to help her get her clothes before she quickly left the room.
Just as she walked out of bath room, she heard a burst of hurried footsteps. Her heart skipped a beat as she looked towards the window.
The steward ran over, out of breath. "Wangfei, wangfei …"
"What happened?"
"Someone from the palace has arrived!"
Hearing this, Wei Qing's mind buzzed. Could it be that Old Emperor was blaming Xiao Qingqian for not being able to cure the disaster and had pulled him out to be the scapegoat?
No, that's not right!
It had to be known that this time, Nan Gong Wen Tian was able to control the plague, and luckily she and the doctors were working together, if not, if the plague had spread to the borders of the north, they would probably not be able to return to the capital yet.
Seeing that she was guessing repeatedly, the butler let out a breath of relief and hurriedly said, "It's the Emperor's reward!"
F * ck you!
Wei Qing glared at the butler, and almost had a heart attack from him.
Die'er reprimanded him, "Butler, our young miss is not scared. Can you not talk like this again?"
The butler bowed his head.
In the past, when Tian Sisi had gained power, he did not place Wei Qing in his eyes at all. He did not know whether or not wangfei would use this matter to punish him.
Wei Qing glanced at her wet hair and vexedly exhaled. She said to the butler: "I'll be right out."
She didn't blame herself as the steward's heart dropped and he hurried out.
"Eldest Miss, this person used to be someone with eyes on top of his head. Why didn't you use this matter to teach him a lesson?"
Wei Qing smiled, "Is there any meaning to it?"
Die'er thought about it for a while, and didn't seem to have any big intentions, but in the end, she was still able to vent her anger!
Right now, she was completely focused on the great competition between the talents of the four countries. She really didn't want to waste too much energy on these useless things.
Die'er replied with an "Oh", then helped to ruffle her hair, causing Wei Qing to enter the hall.
The person who came was the eunuch by Old Emperor's side. When he saw her, he respectfully saluted.
"Congratulations Princess Chu, congratulations Princess Chu!"
Wei Qing laughed lightly, a smile of decency on her face, "What do I like?"
"The king is very pleased with the alliance of the south and the kingdom to fight the plague this time. This servant has come to announce the decree!"
Hearing that, Wei Qing immediately knelt down.
"With the blessing of the Heavens, the Emperor decreed: Princess Chu Wei Qing's performance in fighting the pestilence is extraordinary, I am very pleased, and bestowed a jade ruyi pair, a hundred pearls from the Southern Sea …"
There were still many rewards later on, but Wei Qing did not care much as, after all, without Death-Free Token, all of these things had the words' Imperial Family Patriarch 'written on them, and could not be realized, it was just a decoration.
However, Die'er was obviously very excited!
After the eunuch gave his orders, she helped Wei Qing up with tears in her eyes. Wei Qing ordered a servant girl to serve tea to the eunuch and gave him a handful of Southern Ocean Pearls.
Everyone widened their eyes in shock. When someone from the palace came to announce the decree, there was indeed someone who gave it to the eunuch. However, there wasn't someone who gave the eunuch a pearl right?
Feeling everyone's astonished gazes, Wei Qing continued to smile faintly. After sending the eunuch away, her gaze only stayed on the jade ruyi for a while, before she asked Die'er to help her reward the servants one by one.
Die'er glared at her angrily. "Eldest Miss, these are all the emperor's rewards. How can you bear to part with them?"
Wei Qing looked at her, "What's there to be reluctant about?"
She puffed up her cheeks. One must know that these people were all fence-sitters. Previously, when Tian Sisi had gained power, they had to add fuel to the fire. It was already a blessing for them to not make things difficult for them.
Unexpectedly, she opened her eyes wide the moment she entered.
The heck, how long has it been since she last returned? Why does it feel like her chamber has been robbed?
"Young miss, the Marquis just ordered Chen Cheng to move the things!" The Painted Man said.
When he saw the painting, Wei Qing's heart skipped a beat and she pursed her lips, not replying.
When Wei Qing and Xiao Qingqian had left the Southern Kingdom, Ru Tu had already received news of Chu Yin.
Chu Yin repeatedly warned her that she must take good care of Wei Qing, and when the opportunity presented itself, she must break off the relationship between Wei Qing and Xiao Qingqian.
"I got it!" After a long while, Wei Qing finally squeezed out two words.
She secretly looked at her for a good while, and when she stepped into the hall, the suspicions in her heart grew.
Wei Qing's footsteps suddenly stopped, and she turned to look at the painting.
The way he looked at it was too complicated, causing Painted Man to feel uneasy.
"Like a painting."
"What does Eldest Miss want to say?" The painting could probably guess what she wanted to do.
"You are Chu Yin's man, and now that he has been granted marriage, it is really not good for me to keep you alive!"
"Eldest Miss, this servant was brought out by you from the Prime Minister's Estate!" If the painting emphasized.
Wei Qing's eyes darkened, she was indeed a person that Chu Yin taught her, with a sharp tongue, she was not one bit inferior to her!
"Eldest Miss, Master also couldn't help it. This is the short note that Master sent over!" She knelt down on one knee and presented Chu Yin's short note to Wei Qing with both hands.
Wei Qing's heart was in a mess as she bit down hard on her lips …
