Female Master: Why doesn’t my wife love me yet?

Chapter 459 The bad guy complains first

Xiao Nian had already adjusted her mood.

Although I felt really uncomfortable and a little bit unable to accept it when I first found out.

But she heard that her mother, like her, had lost her father since childhood.

And he still had Uncle Wen.

Thinking of this, Xiao Nian took the initiative to hug Gu Qingyuan's legs, as if to comfort her.

"Hmm? Xiao Nian, what's wrong?"

Not long after Gu Qingyuan put her down, she suddenly hugged her legs. She bent down, her eyes level with Xiao Nian's, and asked her.

Xiao Nian shook her head and smiled gently at her.

"Okay, Xiaonian, you go back first. Mom has something to do outside." She said gently.

After returning from resolving the matter in Jiang Cheng, she had not yet had time to go to the palace to report to the empress.

However, since those people were originally sent by His Majesty, I think even if she didn't have to enter the palace, those people would tell His Majesty everything in detail.

"Mom, be careful on the road."

"Oh, Xiao Nian is so good."

Looking at her calm appearance, Gu Qingyuan felt soft in her heart.

Especially when she thought that she was left behind by Lin Xinghe, her heart felt soft but also a little bitter.

in the palace.

The Queen sat on a high throne, and in front of her stood the Sixth Princess.

The Sixth Princess complained to her angrily, "Mother, that Gu Qingyuan is really too much! She agreed to work with me to help bring rain to Jiangcheng, but she took all the credit! Moreover, she deliberately set me up and made me fall into a trap."

Eunuch Li beside her whispered a few words into the empress's ear, but the empress's expression remained unchanged. She put her hand on the phoenix throne beside her and leaned back.

The Queen said, "Don't think I know nothing."

The Sixth Princess' heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly didn't dare to look up at her.

What does the Queen Mother mean by this?

Shouldn't I punish Gu Qingyuan first for plotting against me like that?

Also, what does the Queen Mother know?

The Sixth Princess swallowed her saliva and tried to continue playing the victim.

"Mother, I have never lied. I still have scars on my body from that day. It's all because of Gu Qingyuan's viciousness!"

At this time, Gu Qingyuan walked in from outside the palace. After bowing to the empress, he said to the Sixth Princess standing beside him, "Sixth Princess, you said I have evil intentions. I'd rather think carefully about why such a big trap appeared in Jiangcheng."

She was the first to file a complaint.

After hearing this, the Queen immediately asked, "How did the trap come about?"

"Perhaps it was set up by the people of Jiangcheng while hunting..." The Sixth Princess's momentum weakened a little.

"Hunting? You know, Jiangcheng is so dry, and the animals are dying or fleeing. Isn't it a waste of manpower for them to spend time and energy digging such a large trap?"

The queen on the stage looked at the two men.

The Sixth Princess knew she was in the wrong and asked her again, "Didn't you say that burning the forest would bring rain? Why did you bring people to the cliff?"

This is also what the Queen wanted to know. What method did Gu Qingyuan use to make it rain in Jiangcheng after a year of drought?

Gu Qingyuan followed his prepared explanation and stepped forward to address the Empress. "I dreamt of the Dragon King, who told me to lead my men to the cliffs, burn wood, and wait for smoke to rise, so I could communicate with him. The Dragon King saw the rising smoke and, out of mercy, decided to bring rain to Jiangcheng."

They definitely don't believe in science.

She was just creating the conditions for rainfall, and since there were clouds over Jiangcheng at the time, it happened to rain.

When the Queen heard Gu Qingyuan mention the "Dragon King," she curiously asked her, "Have you ever seen the Dragon King's true appearance?"

She felt more and more that Gu Qingyuan was simply a treasure.

He can even communicate with the gods in heaven.

Gu Qingyuan said in a serious tone, "The Dragon King is several dozen feet long, golden in color, with four claws, and stands among the clouds."

Anyway, no one has really seen it, so what if she is bragging?

Sure enough, after she finished speaking, the others were intimidated by her.

In traditional impressions, the dragon is golden in color, has a beard and four claws.

Afterwards, Gu Qingyuan reported everything that happened in Jiangcheng to the Queen.

Especially when she learned that several people had killed all the children under the pretext of sacrificing boys and girls, the Queen asked, "Have those people been dealt with?"

"Your Majesty, rest assured. I have already killed them to avenge the deaths of those children."

The Sixth Princess was so angry when she saw Gu Qingyuan talking to the Queen but she couldn't get a word in.

At the last moment, Gu Qingyuan resigned from the job of protecting the Sixth Princess, saying, "Her Royal Highness is of noble status. Your Majesty should send someone else to protect her safety."

To put it bluntly, she just didn't want to follow the Sixth Princess anymore.

The Sixth Princess is impatient and not calm enough. She always wants to do something to herself. Only a fool would want to continue to stay by her side.

The Queen agreed immediately.

Gu Qingyuan continued, "By the way, Your Majesty, I heard that the inspector of the capital is going to retire and return home. I would like to boldly ask Your Majesty to let me take his place."

The capital inspector is actually an official in charge of the security of the capital.

Gu Qingyuan felt more comfortable outside the palace.

"Inspector? But this inspector is only a ninth-rank official. Why did you choose this inspector?" The queen was puzzled.

"I want to try it."

The Queen had no choice but to agree.

The previous inspector was old, and she was worried about choosing the right person. Then Gu Qingyuan came to her and told her that she wanted to be the new inspector.

"I'm tired, you guys go back first." The Queen waved her hand, signaling them to go back.

The Sixth Princess wanted to say something, but seeing that the Queen on the high throne had already closed her eyes, she could only leave the hall first.

After going out, the Sixth Princess gnashed her teeth and said to Gu Qingyuan, "Just wait for me!"

Gu Qingyuan ignored her and quickly left the palace.

After leaving the palace, Gu Qingyuan decided to go for a walk on the street before going back.

When she walked to the front of the martial arts hall, she saw that it had been converted into a restaurant. The business was quite good, with customers coming in and out.

Suddenly, she realized that someone was about to attack her, but the familiar footsteps made her immediately guess who it was.

She turned around, clamped the man with incredible ease, raised an eyebrow and asked, "Jing Qianfan?"

Jing Qianfan, whose hand was grabbed by Gu Qingyuan, immediately returned to her shy look.

"As expected of you, Master, you spotted me right away. It's not a good idea to drag me around in the street, is it?"

Gu Qingyuan released the hand that was holding his wrist and felt a chill.

Jing Qianfan asked, "Master, didn't you say you would marry me when you came back? I've been waiting for you."

If you formally marry a concubine, some etiquette is actually required.

But for Jing Qianfan, none of that matters.

As long as she admitted her identity, that was enough.
