Chapter 93 CFV Ch.93 Bribery (1)

“Jiu, you can go back now.” Empress Wei smirked, these barbarian from Bei Yan think too highly of themselves, they don’t have the power to decide who they want to marry.

Afraid that she would have frightened the little girl, Empress Wei hurriedly added: “The emperor and I would not agree upon the marriage just to make peace with them. Jiu, I will personally select your future partner for you, don’t you worry.”

“......” Qin Jiu thought to herself: Maybe it was because of the compound bow that Ye Lu Luan started to grow fond of to her?

“Du Ruo!”

Empress Wei summoned and an oval-faced palace maid who was dressed in a blue dress walked in, she politely greeted the empress.

“Jiu, this is Du Ruo, she will be under you from now on.” Empress Wei pulled on Jiu’s hand, her lips drew into a meaningful smile.

Since Empress Wei allowed Du Ruo to serve Jiu, this meant that Du Ruo was no longer a palace maid, but Qin Jiu’s follower.

Qin Jiu obediently agreed.

In no time, the palace maid had quickly packed all of Qin Jiu’s belongings, Qin Jiu that was dressed in jewels and Lady Qin returned to Zhong Yi Residence, followed by Du Ruo that was gifted by Empress Wei to Jiu.

After she served Qin Jiu with a cup of tea, she then looked around the courtyard and said as she walked:

“The quilt is still damp, immediately dry it outside and make sure that it smells good!”

“Why is the Curio Box in such a messy state?! Everything is just piled on it, do you think the Marquess Residence is of such low standards?

“How long has it been since the water in the vase was changed?”

“......”

The servants in the yard were busy under Du Ruo’s never ending commands. They all knew that Du Ruo was from the palace and was rewarded by Empress Wei to Qin Jiu. They didn’t dare to refute her.

The yard was initially managed by a mama in charge and two first class maids. Since Du Ruo’s arrival, they all naturally let her take the lead.

Qin Jiu was leisurely sipping on her tea as she watched Du Ruo delegate tasks around the yard, the corner of her lips formed into a slight smile.

Hmm, the yard should always be this lively!

Qin Jiu sipped a mouthful of tea, and suddenly thought of someone, she casually asked: “Where is Xia Lian?”

Another maid, Chun Xi bowed and replied: “Miss, Xia Lian fell ill and is still resting.”

Qin Jiu placed the tea cup in her hand back down, raised her eyebrows and forced a smile before asking: “She fell ill just from my aunt’s slap?”
