The next morning, Li Jieyu went to Shen Qingwan's bedroom. Although she didn't like Shen Qingwan's cold attitude, it was the Queen's order after all, so she didn't dare to disobey.
"Sister, let's go find the emperor together." Seeing Shen Qingwan just packing her things slowly, Li Jieyu was a little anxious. Could it be that she was going to regret it after just one day
Shen Qingwan was certainly not the kind of person who went back on her word. She just felt that Concubine Li was a little different today. Why was she so anxious? "No hurry. The emperor hasn't left the morning court yet." She spoke lightly and she, Shen Qingwan, no longer looked at her face.
She could tell who was sincere to her and who was insincere, and she thought that Li Jieyu needed her help with something. Besides, the problem in Jiangnan could not be solved in one or two days, so she was not in a hurry.
Li Jieyu had no choice but to sit in front of Shen Qingwan, but she was very anxious. She went to find Fu Yuheng herself, but he would definitely not agree. The Queen was really something, why would she give her such an errand
"Let's go." Seeing the time, Shen Qingwan slowly stood up, asked Lianyun to take out her cloak, and headed towards the imperial study. Li Jieyu followed closely behind. I really don't know why she would walk when she has a sedan chair instead of sitting in it.
"Your Majesty is here. The Emperor just got out of court and is waiting for you inside." Sun Ning, who was guarding outside the door, was very happy to see Shen Qingwan coming, but when he saw Concubine Li, he just gave her a perfunctory greeting.
This treatment of Li Jieyu was not only because Fu Yuheng did not favor her, but also because of her attitude towards him. However, it was still a bit strange for these two ladies to come together.
"Well, thank you, Eunuch Sun." Shen Qingwan nodded politely and walked in. Li Jieyu glared at Sun Ning fiercely. What kind of attitude was this
"Your Majesty, your servant pays homage." Shen Qingwan bowed respectfully when she entered, and Concubine Li followed suit.
Fu Yuheng looked up and saw that it was her, and quickly stood up to help the person up, but acted as if he didn't see Li Jieyu.
Li Jieyu lowered her head and felt her face as if it was burning. She felt that this was a little too much.
"Has the emperor thought about my suggestion?" She spoke calmly as she stood in front of Fu Yuheng, but the worry between her brows revealed her master's concern.
"Well, I'll allow you to go. But you can take care of your health, and the other things can be done by the palace servants." Fu Yuheng thought about it all night and felt that only Shen Qingwan could go. Those ministers were a bunch of good-for-nothings and were completely useless.
Seeing Fu Yuheng's agreement, Shen Qingwan finally smiled. She could finally do something for the people, not just for her own daughter.
"Your Majesty, I request permission to go with you. My family is also in Jiangnan, and I am very worried about the flood this time, so I asked the Concubine Xian to let me go with you. I hope Your Majesty will approve it." Seeing that the two had made the decision, Concubine Li spoke quickly.
Fu Yuheng then noticed that Concubine Li was a little surprised and asked someone to stand up and speak, "My beloved concubine agrees?" He also felt strange when looking at Shen Qingwan. With her personality, she would not be like this.
"Yes, please allow me, Your Majesty." Shen Qingwan nodded. After all, she was worried about her family. Besides, Concubine Li started crying when she arrived. How could she refuse? But Fu Yuheng was afraid that he would be embarrassed.
After all, she still had the title, so she could go, but she was afraid that the ministers would say something again. Li Jieyu didn't say anything else, just wiped her tears, and Fu Yuheng felt a little headache when he saw it, but he had no choice.
"Then you should follow Concubine Xian, and obey her arrangements in everything." Fu Yuheng could only agree. He didn't know that she was such a filial woman.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Li Jieyu smiled happily after getting the consent, and the time for the two to set off was also set.
Xiao Shushen, who was recuperating in Fengluan Palace, couldn't help but smile when she heard the news, "Tell her that everything is going according to my plan. It can only succeed and not fail." She instructed Nanny Gui to pass on the message, and she was quite relaxed.
Shen Qingwan was really crazy about winning favor. What kind of place is Jiangnan? There are refugees everywhere and floods. There might be a bloody disaster at any time. It is better to be safe in the palace.
"Stupid." Xiao Shushen uttered the word lazily. She probably wouldn't have to worry about Shen Qingwan anymore in the future.
"Your Majesty, you must not do this." During the morning court session, Fu Yuheng was opposed by all the ministers as soon as he announced the news.
“Your Majesty, Concubine Xian and Concubine Li are just women. How can they go to Jiangnan to control the flood? This is inappropriate... inappropriate!” In their impression, women only need to stay in the harem.
The fact that Shen Qingwan had a third-rank title had already made them lose face, and if she went to Jiangnan, wouldn't it be a further slap in their face? Therefore, they could only complain about it.
"Assholes!" Fu Yuheng knew what they were thinking and became even more annoyed. "Then tell me, is there any better way?" As a result, there was complete silence again and no one dared to speak.
"I have made up my mind. The virtuous concubine will go to Jiangnan, and Concubine Li will accompany her." Fu Yuheng, who was already furious, didn't care what the ministers wanted to say and directly announced his decision.
These people only care about their own interests. They don't care what Jiangnan has become. They don't think about sharing their worries. They are no better than a woman in the harem.
After the morning court session, Fu Yuheng went directly to Shen Qingwan's bedroom, where she was packing her things. They were just some simple luggage and money. Disaster relief was not a trip, so nothing fancy was needed.
"Thank you for your hard work, my beloved." Fu Yuheng felt a headache when thinking about the situation in Jiangnan. She was the only one who understood her feelings.
"I am willing to do this." Shen Qingwan shook her head. She wanted to go anyway. Even if Fu Yuheng disagreed, she would have kept asking, so where was the hardship
It is known to the world that the common people are the foundation of a country. If we do not solve the problems, the only ones who will suffer are the common people.
I just didn’t expect that the usually delicate Li Jieyu would actually take the initiative to say that she wanted to go with us. It seems that we don’t know what will happen along the way, so we still need to be careful.
"Remember what I said, you must ensure your own safety at all times." After explaining something, he was still a little worried, so Fu Yuheng spoke again, and Shen Qingwan just nodded to indicate that she had listened.
After packing up everything, she sent someone to notify Concubine Li. Shen Qingwan was ready to set off, and this time she didn't bring many people with her, only Lianyun, and Xiaoruo stayed in the palace to take care of it. Fu Yuheng also sent guards to escort her.
