At the same time.
The Northern Liang Imperial Palace.
After listening to the guard’s report, Little Lizi hurried toward the imperial study. He entered with a gleeful expression and reported to the empress in a soft voice.
“Your Majesty, the State Preceptor and the Tiger guards have all returned to the Capital. The State Preceptor sent a message saying that he would enter the palace to meet Your Majesty tomorrow morning after a night of rest.”
“Okay,” the empress replied absent-mindedly as she was busy reviewing the memorials.
Little Lizi was elated. He said with a smile, “The State Preceptor also said that the girl that Your Majesty wants to meet has arrived in the Capital as well, and will enter the palace together with him to meet Your Majesty tomorrow morning.”
The Empress’ hand froze, with a brush in her grasp—something suddenly occurred to her. She raised her head and said with a faint sigh, “The one called Qi Qingyao?”
Little Lizi widened his eyes as he nodded.
The empress let out an ‘oh’ and said, “So, she has finally come.”
Later, she recalled something important and asked Little Lizi excitedly, “Has the Head Grand Secretariat also returned?”
Little Lizi said, “To answer Your Majesty, our men said that the Head Grand Secretariat returned alongside the State Preceptor.”
The empress suddenly stood up and said, “Hurry up and summon the Head Grand Secretariat to come to the palace and meet me! Just say that I have missed my beloved subject for so long.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
After Little Lizi received that order, he hurried to the Head Grand Secretariat’s residence in person…
…
Jiang Yeqian had just entered through the door upon returning from the State Preceptor’s residence. Zhao Xin had just unloaded their luggage when he saw the eunuch enter their residence. Upon seeing the person who had shown up, Zhao Xin was stupefied. He hurriedly reported this to His Excellency.
“Your Excellency, someone from the palace is here.”
“???”
Jiang Yeqian, who had just had a sip of his cooling tea after entering his room, raised his head. His expression was restrained and impassive.
Zhao Xin told him the identity of the visitor.
Jiang Yeqian looked mildly annoyed but headed toward the front hall. After stepping into the hall, the eunuch Little Lizi looked excitedly at Jiang Yeqian, who was obviously travel-worn. “Pleased to meet you, Head Grand Secretariat.”
Jiang Yeqian returned the salute.
The eunuch Little Lizi continued, “Her Majesty summons you to the palace to meet Her Majesty immediately.”
Jiang Yeqian nodded in neither a haughty nor humble manner. He responded, “Please report back to Her Majesty that this humble servant is exhausted from his travels, and that his injuries have not yet healed. He would like to take a bath and have a good rest today. After tidying up his appearance, he will come to the palace tomorrow.”
Little Lizi was a little awkward as he said, “Your Excellency, Her Majesty is waiting for you quite impatiently…”
Jiang Yeqian frowned and asked, “Must it be today?” After waiting for several months, is one more day too much? What was the empress thinking?
Little Lizi smiled rather strangely and said, “The empress said she has been missing you for a long time, so you must come to the palace to meet Her Majesty today.”
‘Miss me? Heh!’
Jiang Yeqian replied softly, “Please wait for a moment, eunuch. After this humble servant has taken a bath and changed his clothes, he will go to the palace with the eunuch.”
Upon hearing this, Little Lizi promptly said that there was no rush.
Jiang Yeqian turned around and returned to his room. The servants had already prepared him a bath. After taking a quick bath, Zhao Xin held up the new clothes he had prepared. While waiting for His Excellency to change, he said, “Your Excellency, we have had a difficult journey and have just arrived in the Capital. It’s very strange that Her Majesty so urgently asked you to visit the palace.”
Jiang Yeqian responded, “As the Head Grand Secretariat, my resignation was only a remote submission of a resignation document. Perhaps the empress felt that this conduct was too sloppy. Therefore, it’s necessary to talk about this matter of resignation clearly in person during this trip to the palace.”
“…” Zhai Xin nodded and thought to himself, their people had already been deployed in the Northern Liang Capital and Imperial Palace. From now on, His Excellency only needed to issue orders from the Ghost Organization.
It had come to an end.
…
Today, many locals of the Capital City had seen a team of elite Tiger guards and several luxurious carriages enter the Capital. After some inquiry among the upper-class community, they all knew that the doors to the State Preceptor’s residence and the Head Grand Secretariat’s residence were opened at the same time, indicating that the two big shots had returned to the Capital together. People from all forces planned to hurry over to visit the two big shots, but who could’ve known that before they were even ready to head out, they were told that someone from the palace visited the Head Grand Secretariat’s residence… ‘to send a message’.
Shortly after, the Head Grand Secretariat’s carriage was seen heading toward the Imperial Palace.
This made everyone think that the person that was most adored and valued by the empress was the Head Grand Secretariat indeed… The moment the Head Grand Secretariat returned to his residence, they had to come to meet him as soon as possible to express their longing! Lest the Head Grand Secretariat hold grudges in the future!
