When I look back now, even she is surprised at her own change, because with him and children, the palace no longer seems to be just a cold prison. She has also gained peace of mind here. Freedom is no longer unbearable.

She couldn't help looking at Qiuyue, she was still very young and should not be trapped in the deep palace all her life, but the possibility of her and Qin Xing was very low. When she learned of the good news from the army, she changed her worries from the past. Even An Lian teased her and asked her if she had picked up the money and why she was so happy.

Zhong Li felt somewhat distressed for her, she held Qiuyue's hand and couldn't help but test, "Xia He now has children, so it's time to consider your marriage this year."

Qiuyue was startled, and hurriedly knelt down, "The slave does not want to get married, madam, the slave will serve you all the time, please don't marry the slave, the slave is begging you."

Her tone was urgent, and her expression was somewhat sincere, obviously frightened.

Zhong Li stretched out his hand and pulled her up, "What nonsense, you have to spend your whole life in this deep palace with me, without a single bit of freedom, isn't this harming you? Don't worry, even if I really want you to marry , it will only be up to you to choose, choose the one you like."

A trace of sadness flashed in Qiuyue's eyes, and then she smiled and said: "The slave is not ready to marry, and there will be no happy person in the future. The slave will stay by your side, and the slave wants to watch the little prince grow up with his own eyes."

Her appearance is clearly rooted in Qin Xing's love, and she doesn't want to marry because she thinks there is no possibility for the two of them.

Zhong Li couldn't help sighing and patted her hand.

Qiuyue's heart skipped a beat, she couldn't help but raised her head and glanced at her master. When she met her complicated eyes, Qiuyue's heart trembled slightly. She always felt that she had found something. She blushed and lowered her head.

Zhong Li screened the other maids back, patted the position beside her, and asked Qiuyue to sit down in front of her. Qiuyue was a little reserved, and her cheeks were flushed. She was always cheerful on weekdays. This was the first time Zhong Li saw her. The twitchy little daughter's modalities.

"Sit down, we haven't spoken to ourselves for a long time, just chatting."

Qiuyue thanked her and sat down beside her, Zhong Li said, "I asked the emperor for you, the reason why Qin Xing has not married is because he still misses his deceased fiancee. I can't forget her and I won't get married."

Seeing that she really knew everything, Qiuyue was so embarrassed that she kept staring at her toes, "Master, this servant never thought of being with him, even if he has no one in his heart, he will only marry A noble girl, a slave and a maid, he may not be able to look down on him as a concubine."

Zhong Li frowned, "Don't underestimate yourself, you are so good, he doesn't look down on him because he has no vision. If you really like him, you don't have to worry about your identity, you and I are sisters, I can let my uncle accept it. You are the adopted daughter, and then ask the emperor to make you the county head, as long as he is willing to get married, then you can marry him with integrity."

This was Zhong Li's decision after careful consideration.

Qiuyue is not a family child. The reason why she sold herself to Zhenbei Hou's mansion at the beginning was because her family was too poor. She had an idea and signed a living contract. In fact, she had already saved enough money for redemption, but she was reluctant to leave Zhongli. , stayed by her side.

In Zhong Li's heart, she and Xia He had already become her relatives. Xia He now has green pine, and the future will not be bad. She was somewhat worried about Qiuyue. Just a while ago, Qiuyue blocked the knife for her and saved the little prince. If you ask the emperor to make her the county head, it is not impossible.

Qiuyue never expected that the master planned for her like this. She was moved, and her eyes were a little sore. She knelt down and kowtowed to Zhong Li, and she was speechless for a while.

She knew clearly in her heart that it was not so simple to seal the county owner. Even if the emperor agreed, the minister would definitely obstruct it in every possible way. She came from a low background and did not make much contribution. Make her very grateful, how dare she ask to be the county head.

A smile appeared on Qiuyue Xiu's face again, "Master has this heart, it is enough for slaves and slaves to be grateful, slaves are not afraid of your jokes, even if he can see slaves and want to marry slaves, slaves have never thought of marrying him. "

"Master doesn't have to worry about slaves. Although slaves are thinking about him now, it doesn't mean slaves are really planted on him. In fact, slaves just admire him a little bit."

The reason why Qiuyue has a good impression of Qin Xing is because Qin Xing once helped her. Some time ago, when the envoy came to Beijing, she had been out of the palace, but she unexpectedly met Deng Tuzi on the street, and the other party saw her a young woman When he appeared on the street, he intended to belittle her, but Qin Xing happened to help her out.

She felt that if the person who saved her was not Qin Xing, but someone else, in that case, she might have liked it. What she liked was only her savior, which had nothing to do with Qin Xing. She was very rational and naturally It is clear that it is impossible for her and Qin Xing, after all, the way he looks at her, there is no relationship between men and women at all.

She only hoped that he would return safely. As for the other side, she had never asked for it.

Qiuyue said frankly: "Actually, the slaves really want to help you manage the shop like Qingsong Qingye, so let's wait for you for a few more years, and when the little prince is older, you will release the slaves from the palace, and then you will also promote the slaves. As a steward, the slaves will manage the shop for you outside the palace."

For the past ten years, she has been by Zhong Li's side. When Zhong Li is reading and literate, she always accompanies her. Although it is not like Zhong Li is full of poetry and books, she also knows a lot of words, plus she has helped Zhong Li read There are many ledgers, and she is also very sensitive to numbers. What she lacks is only management experience.

Qiuyue has confidence in herself. She believes that she is not much worse than Qingsong and Qingye. If they can do well, so can she.

Zhong Li couldn't help but move in her heart when she heard the words.

Qiuyue has always been smart and eloquent. When a few maids went out to sell rouge together, she and Xia Cao always sold the most, and they could get half as much reward silver than others. Also suitable for business, but only for women.
