She ate in silence and ate the meal very quietly. After the meal, the queen touched her lips with a handkerchief, looked at the emperor and smiled softly: "I see the emperor coming into the palace, and he seems to be in a low mood, but for the sake of

Are you upset about the disaster relief work of the previous government?"

The emperor's heart skipped a beat, and he sighed secretly. Although the queen has never donated all her jewelry to disaster relief funds in recent years.

However, the jewelry of the concubines in the harem were all brought to him by the queen. Thinking of seeing all the shabby concubines wearing only one or two hairpins on their hair tomorrow, the emperor felt a headache.

But he had to smile calmly and said: "Queen, you are very tired from taking care of the harem. Don't think too much about these things in the previous dynasty. I will solve them myself."

The queen looked at the emperor for a while, and the emperor looked puzzled. She thought there was something wrong with her body. She couldn't help but look down at him secretly. There was nothing abnormal. They were all dressed neatly.

Could it be that there were grains of rice stuck to his face from eating just now? Just when the emperor was thinking about whether he should find a chance to turn around and touch his face, he saw the queen suddenly burst into laughter, which made the emperor confused.

After laughing for a long time, the queen smiled with her cheeks turning red and said: "Your Majesty, please forgive me for not being able to hold it in any longer. Seeing your worried look, Your Majesty, I really, really can't hold it in anymore, haha..."

The emperor still looked at the queen and smiled without knowing why. The queen laughed for a long time before she stopped smiling and said to the maid serving beside her: "Nuanxiang, go and have the boxes brought in."

Nuan Xiangfu saluted, said yes, walked to the door, opened the bead curtain, and shouted into the yard, "Bring them all in."

Following Nuan Xiang's words, a row of little eunuchs carried first-class small boxes into the house and lined up in the middle of the house. Then after these little eunuchs saluted, they stood next to the boxes.

The queen took the emperor and walked to the first box. The little eunuch immediately opened the box. Inside was half a box of gold and half a box of silver. The emperor knew at a glance that this was what the queen would prepare every time disaster relief funds were needed.

The emperor praised the queen casually, "The queen has a kind heart. Every time I hear that there are disaster victims there, she will donate generously. I am very pleased."

The queen chuckled softly, "Your Majesty, after you look at the box next to it, it's not too late to praise me again." After saying that, the queen looked at the little eunuchs and said, "You guys, please open the lids of the box."

Following the queen's order, all the boxes in the room were opened, and the emperor was surprised to find that there were gold and silver in these boxes, but there was no jewelry from the concubines that gave him a headache.

The queen pulled the emperor over with a smile, pointing to the boxes and introducing, "Your Majesty, the boxes in this box were donated by Concubine Shu, this box belongs to Mrs. Xuan, this one belongs to the noble concubine, this one belongs to the concubine Lian, and this one belongs to the concubine Lian

Bai Ronghua’s, this is Ruan Zhaoyi’s, this is…”

The queen introduced her around, including all the concubines in the harem. After seeing this, the emperor would be stupid if he didn't know why the queen was smiling before. He couldn't help but hugged the emperor's waist and feigned anger: "Okay, queen, you

You are deliberately making fun of me, saying, when did you know that I was worried about this?"

The Queen also laughed, "Your Majesty, I blame the concubines for their dereliction of duty. They didn't even think that the jewelry of concubines in the harem cannot be circulated among the people. It has added so much burden to the Emperor for nothing."

"What does this have to do with the queen? These concubines have no brains. The queen has never used jewelry as a donation for disaster relief." The emperor said disdainfully.

"Your Majesty, you have wronged these concubines, and you have also looked down upon me. I have not brought out jewelry because I am the mother of a country. How can I not have jewelry on my head? It would be too unseemly.

Although the concubines did this to show off, it was just because they wanted to let you know that they care about you, and to please you. Moreover, these concubines did not know that their jewelry could not be circulated, and they thought they could be used by those.

Mrs. Gaoming bought it."

The queen's soft explanation made the emperor's dissatisfaction with the concubines lessen. He took the queen's hand and sat down, "They, after all, their heads are empty, and they don't want to think about how I, as the king of a country, can sell my own concubines."

Ornaments for the wife of the minister.

These concubines are simply ridiculous. After all, the Queen was attentive, discovered my unspeakable things, and helped me solve this trouble. I should reward you."

"Your Majesty, I don't dare to take credit for this matter. In fact, what happened this time was that the noble concubine came to my palace and reminded me of this matter, so that I can share your worries for you, Your Majesty. If you want to reward me, you can also

You deserve to be rewarded by a noble concubine."

"Haha, it's all rewarded. When the noble concubine found out about this matter, she was the first to tell you about it, instead of claiming credit from me. She understands the dignity of everyone and respects the queen. She deserves a reward. But the queen can not conceal the contribution of the noble concubine. So why?

You handled the matter quickly and even spoke kindly to me to explain it to the concubine. Her character is valuable and she deserves to be rewarded even more!"

As soon as the emperor was happy, rewards were distributed like a stream of water. Although the emperor's treasury and private treasury lacked silver and gold, there was no shortage of various luxury items, such as famous paintings, furnishings, etc.

If the emperor is not too face-conscious and is willing to sell a small part of the treasures accumulated in the national treasury and private treasury, the national treasury will be rich immediately.

It's a pity that the emperor has such a good face and is determined not to do this kind of thing that only poor people would do. The treasures in the treasury can only come in more or be given out as rewards, and they have never been sold for money. It's so embarrassing!

After staying one night in Fengchen Palace, the emperor left with a row of boxes filled with gold and silver in satisfaction. The queen's personal maids, Nuan Xiang and Xia'er, came in to help the queen change and wash herself.

Nuan Xiang dressed up the queen and said with a smile: "I was very happy when I saw the emperor leaving today. In the past, I didn't think that the noble concubines were very close to our Fengchen Palace. It's rare that this time she is so sensible and knows that the empress is the harem."

My lord, everything should be reported to the empress first."

The queen took a Nine Phoenix Hairpin in her hand and played with it, and said with a chuckle: "What do you know? This is a smart thing for the noble concubine. If she takes the initiative to tell the emperor about this matter, she will inevitably offend me.

Moreover, the emperor attaches great importance to propriety, so he will definitely not like her overstepping her bounds like this. Even if the concubines in the harem find out about this, they will inevitably hate her for being meddlesome, climb up on their shoulders, and will not give her any obstacles in the future.
