After becoming a princess, she fell in love with the emperor of the enemy country

Chapter 142 This is a second preparation

Upon hearing this, everyone hurried to tidy up their appearance, fearing that they would leave a bad impression on Qi Wuyou.

He Xiang tugged at Mei Xue's sleeve and asked softly, "Will the Queen come?"

Mei Xue shook her head and said, "So let's go back and call her now."

He Xiang sighed and followed Mei Xue.

In a corner where no one was paying attention, Liu He was crying bitterly, covering his leg that was stepped on.

Xiao Zhezi ran from the imperial study to Fengyi Palace in one breath, sweating profusely from exhaustion.

He grabbed the mung bean soup that Caiyun prepared for Qi Wuyou and drank it.

Qi Wuyou frowned when he saw Xiao Zhezi like this, which scared Caiyun and she knelt down immediately.

Qi Wuyou: “?” What I’m saying is, if I want to hit someone, I’ll hit Xiao Zhezi. Why are you kneeling so readily?

Lianxiang coughed twice and signaled Caiyun to go out first.

After Caiyun left, Qi Wuyou picked up the pillow at hand and smashed it on Xiao Zhezi. It was because she was unable to move now, otherwise she would have whipped him.

"What's going on? Did you ask?"

"I asked, I asked," Xiao Zhezi put the pillow next to Qi Wuyou with a smile, and repeated everything Liu He said to Qi Wuyou.

Finally, he added, "I have asked Your Majesty for the right to dispose of Ge Qiu. What will Your Majesty do?"

Qi Wuyou pondered for a moment and sighed, "Bring the person over here, I'll take a look first."

Lianxiang interrupted, "Your Majesty, it's better not to watch it."

Liu He has been tortured severely, and that person must not look good. It is better not to see him, so as not to scare the queen.

Qi Wuyou understood Lianxiang's idea and thought for a moment, "Why don't you clean it up for her while I take a look?"

Lian Xiang nodded when she heard this, "Alright, I'll go take a look then."

As soon as Lianxiang left, Meixue and Hexiang came back. They explained to Qi Wuyou the process of selecting a study partner.

When Qi Wuyou heard that the young ladies were coming in shabby clothes, he thought she was so annoying.

When he heard that they sat like this because they didn't want to be Xuan Yelan's concubine, he breathed a sigh of relief. Compared with these talented and knowledgeable girls from aristocratic families, Qi Wuyou felt that he was completely defeated.

After hearing that they all thanked her for founding the girls' school and for allowing women to take the imperial examinations, Qi Wuyou felt relieved but also a little guilty.

After all, it was Lu Yu who was in charge of the girls' school, and she just contributed some money. As for the women's imperial examination, she just mentioned it casually. It was Xuan Yelan, the love-brained one, who helped her deal with the old-fashioned people from the previous dynasty.

Mei Xue finally said, "Then I will ask the young ladies from each family to come over, Your Majesty, to take a look?"

Qi Wuyou nodded, "Okay."

Seeing that it was almost time, Mei Xue and He Xiang went back.

Lianxiang came back with Ge Qiu tied up, and the three men had sex with him.

Qi Wuyou looked at Ge Qiu and signaled Lianxiang to let the man go.

Ge Qiu didn't know what Qi Wuyou was planning, so he just stared at her.

Qi Wuyou looked at the wound on her face, sighed, and ordered Lianxiang to bring her an ointment, "For scar removal."

Then he pointed to his face and said, "It's not good to leave a scar here."

Ge Qiu took the ointment, lowered his head and said nothing.

Qi Wuyou didn't care and said, "I know your life experience, Ge Qiu."

Ge Qiu was not surprised that Qi Wuyou knew her name, and said the first sentence of the day, "So?"

Qi Wuyou glanced at Ge Qiu again, "Do you want to go home?"

Hearing this, Ge Qiu's eyes widened, and there was a flash of expectation in his eyes, but he suppressed it and said in a calm voice, "I have a good life in this palace and people serve me. What should I do if I go back?"

In fact, with her family background, she could have a good life at home and be served by others.

Qi Wuyou thought of what Lianxiang had told her. Liuyun and the others had told her that they had been serving Ge Qiu for three months. If they were beaten frequently, they would not have just those few injuries on their bodies.

He Xiang was also there when their wounds were being treated. She said that although Liuyun and the others also had many old whip wounds, those had basically healed.

And judging from the wound, it seemed that it had been well treated with medicine, which was very strange.

According to what they said, Ge Qiu often abused them and beat and scolded them, so how could he give them medicine?

He Xiang casually mentioned at the time: The maids in the laundry department would also beat people with whips.

Qi Wuyou had a guess, could it be that Ge Qiu and Liu Yun were in the same group? They were waiting for her to perform for them that day!

Otherwise, why would Ge Qiu say that she was the queen, a lie that was so easily exposed?

Qi Wuyou didn't understand why Ge Qiu did this, just to get beaten?

Thinking of this, Qi Wuyou frowned. How could it be possible? Who would deliberately seek abuse?

And Xiao Zhezi didn't say why the Ge family sent Ge Qiu into the palace.

Judging from Ge Qiu's performance just now, she wanted to go back, but why did she say that?

Qi Wuyou grabbed a handful of hair and thought he had to find the Ge family to ask.

Qi Wuyou said to Xiao Zhezi, "Let's place her in the palace first." Let's wait until she comes back to see the Ge family.

Hearing this, Ge Qiu paused and buried his head even lower.

Xiao Zhezi's expression remained unchanged. He had obviously guessed it long ago. He asked Qi Wuyou, "Then Madam, in what capacity did she stay here?"

Qi Wuyou thought about it and realized that Ge Qiu was an ordinary citizen. Although she had always been in the palace, Xuan Yelan had not been made a concubine.

Finally, Qi Wuyou made up his mind, "Save the palace maid and let Fang Liu arrange a job for her."

Fang Liu was also Qi Wuyou's dowry, and is now a first-class maid in Fengyi Palace.

Xiao Zhezi bowed and said, "Yes." Ge Qiu didn't react and followed Xiao Zhezi out.

This made Qi Wuyou even more convinced of his guess. Could it be that something big happened to the Ge family back then?

Lianxiang walked up to Qi Wuyou and asked in a low voice, "What does the queen want to do?"

Qi Wuyou asked, "Why was Ge Qiu sent to the palace back then?"

Lianxiang shook her head and said, "I didn't know." She only remembered this person now.

"Send someone to find out what happened to the Ge family back then."

Lian Xiang nodded, "Yes."

Mei Xue also arrived at Qixiang Hall where the young ladies from aristocratic families were.

When they opened the door, they were both stunned.

Looking at the beautiful girls in the yard, the two fell into deep thought. Is this the person they just saw?

Mei Xue stepped out and looked at the plaque on the door. It was the Qixiang Hall.

Finally, a woman came forward and explained the whole story. "Don't blame me, sister. I just had no choice."

The woman paused and said, "To be honest, I have actually thought about choosing a study partner, so I prepared two sets of clothes."

There was a girl standing next to the woman who looked 50% like her. They should be sisters. She scratched her head embarrassedly and said, "I just didn't expect that other girls would think the same way."

Mei Xue understood that this was a way to prepare for both situations.

Seeing that all the young ladies had washed and dressed, Mei Xue bowed and said, "The Queen has been waiting for a long time. Young ladies, please follow me."
