Counting on your fingers, the fifth marriage is coming

Chapter 204: The Blessed Woman (Part )

Seeing the two arguing endlessly, the Grand Empress Dowager waved her hand and interrupted them: "No need to argue, I will send someone to go back with you immediately, and the matter will be clear."

The maid quickly agreed and left the palace with a team of palace guards.

When we arrived at Xinghua Lane, we saw a house with ground ivy climbing all over the walls.

The wooden door painted with tung oil was ajar, and high and low voices could be faintly heard from inside. The palace maid lifted her skirt and pushed the door open with her hand in inexplicable excitement.

In the yard, she saw her sister-in-law, slightly bent over, carefully supporting a middle-aged woman as they walked. With every step, she lowered her head and smiled and said a few words of encouragement to the woman, and the woman also responded with a smile.

It can be seen that the woman is suffering from a long-term illness. She looks to be in her thirties, with sallow skin, mostly white hair, blue veins protruding on the back of her hands, her voice is weak and her steps are soft and powerless.

"mother!"

The palace maid's eyes turned red and she rushed forward quickly.

When the woman saw her, her eyes slowly widened: "Yu'er, why are you back?"

"Mother, how can you stand up? Are you okay?" The palace maid looked the woman up and down in disbelief.

When her sister-in-law saw her sister-in-law coming back, she was all smiles: "Mom, this is a miracle. She felt a tight pain in her chest and was about to die. Your brother and I were so anxious that we started crying, but she suddenly got better the next second."

"Okay?" The maid looked at her blankly.

Her sister-in-law nodded affirmatively: "Sister, you definitely don't believe it, but we didn't believe it at first either. It was your brother who went a few miles away to find the best doctor to see her. After the doctor examined her, he also said that this was impossible. The situation was in a mess at the time, and your brother was also very surprised. He repeatedly asked several questions before happily sending the doctor back."

When the maid saw her sister-in-law's genuine joy and relief, she finally came to her senses.

"Yes, it was the Goddess of Fortune who blessed our family, and that made my wish come true."

My sister-in-law didn't understand, but the maid didn't explain too much. She turned around and said to the people who came with her, "You can go back and report to the Queen Mother. The koi given by the blessed lady really cured my mother's illness and fulfilled my wish."

-

After the palace servants reported the situation truthfully, the Empress Dowager seemed to be thinking about something.

There are thousands of ways to save lives in this world, but none of them are easy to accomplish, especially for those whose life span has come to an end. Even Shen'er has said that even for her, it would be impossible to do it without paying a huge price and meeting strict conditions.

And this ancient jade simply turned the blessing into koi and injected it into the palace maid's body, and then she could make her wish come true by speaking it out. This really makes people feel... weird.

"I never thought that your blessing could actually save a life. You really deserve to be the blessed woman praised by everyone in Sheyuan." The Empress Dowager exclaimed.

She looked at Gu Yuhe with a smile on her face, but her eyes were so deep and shallow that it was difficult to tell her true feelings.

Gu Yuhe stepped forward to express her gratitude. She was neither anxious nor impatient. She spread her sleeves and bowed to the ground, resting her forehead on the back of her hands. Her posture was very humble and submissive.

"I don't deserve it. I have been familiar with the books of sages since I was young, and I also understand that I worry about the world before I worry about myself, and I enjoy the world after I enjoy myself. Respecting the king and expelling the barbarians, being loyal to the king and loving the country are the greatest help to a country."

The city lord immediately stepped forward to help: "I hope the Empress Dowager can fulfill my daughter's wish, bless the Thousand Blessings Map, pray for your Majesty, and bless the world."

The father and daughter were so eager to show their affection that the Empress Dowager became suspicious.

Just as she was thinking about how to deal with the matter, a voice came to her ears.

"Promise her."

what? !

The Empress Dowager looked to the left abruptly, and the maid next to her asked with a puzzled and anxious look on her face: "The Empress Dowager?"

The Empress Dowager immediately calmed down, as she had guessed who the voice belonged to.

"Since it is a good thing, how can I not agree? You go and prepare the blessing venue and clothes for the blessed lady. Then, after the palace selection, I will invite His Majesty to come and participate in the blessing ceremony together."

The Empress Dowager agreed immediately. Upon hearing this, the father and daughter couldn't help but express their gratitude.

"Thank you, Queen Mother, for your grace."

-

After the Empress Dowager sent the Ren Gu father and daughter away, she dismissed the attendants and asked in the empty hall, "God?"

Sure enough, the voice that sounded in my ears before spoke again.

"You want to ask, why should I agree to them?"

The Empress Dowager immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"Yes, although this father and daughter pretend to be kind-hearted, I have lived in the palace for so long and have seen many such fake people. I can see clearly what they are really thinking. They are definitely not just trying to present you with a thousand blessings and share the country's worries."

"If we don't let them succeed first, how can we know what she is planning to do? The means of blessing she possesses are not something that ordinary people can learn. There must be a master behind the scenes who is guiding her."

The Empress Dowager nodded and said, "Just be aware of this in your heart. Just don't let this matter affect the palace selection. This is a matter of great importance to your life."

Ever since she knew that Shen'er only had a few decades to live like an ordinary person, she became more concerned about the selection of concubines for the harem. She had to keep her eyes open and choose carefully for the person who would spend the rest of her life with Shen'er and accompany her for decades, and she would not make any mistakes.

"I already have a candidate in mind."

The Empress Dowager was stunned and stood up quickly: "Who will you choose?"

"God?"

"Shen'er, who are you going to choose?"

She was so anxious that she asked several times, but unfortunately Xu Shanshan, who was transmitting the message to her, had unilaterally cut off the communication. She could only shout loudly to the palace servants outside the door.

"Quick, bring me the list of handsome men selected by the palace. I want to review it myself."

The palace maid responded quickly and went down to do her job in a hurry.

-

Xie Yujin made a special trip to the clan house and read the petition filed by Wei Canghao, Chi Jiangdong and others. His eyes immediately turned cold.

"Let them withdraw."

The official said in embarrassment: "Master, this matter has been reviewed by the Empress Dowager. Unless these four people are willing, we cannot force them to withdraw the petition."

"Tell them that if they want to continue to participate in the palace selection, they must withdraw the petition that damages the reputation of His Majesty first."

Xie Yujin turned around and left with a cold look of anger.

-

When he learned that all of His Majesty's former fiancés in the folk were selected, Huo Junting immediately found Mo Han. He looked at him with a completely new gaze, with a half-smile on his face: "How did you do it?"

"I said, this is not difficult to accomplish, because the advantage is on our side." Mo Han said.

Huo Junting thought about the meaning of his words for a while, and suddenly realized: "You mean His Majesty?"

Mo Han's silent eyes were like a wise man who saw through everything, but was reluctant to speak.

"So what's next? What should we do next to make Xie Yujin commit an irreparable mistake and miss the chance to become the queen?" Huo Junting asked.

Mo Han said, "We don't need to take action for the time being. Xie Yujin is already overwhelmed with dealing with His Majesty's ex-fiancés. It's a pipe dream for him to take the throne from those five people."

Huo Junting was somewhat skeptical: "... do they have the means to suppress Master Xie, who has many faces and is eloquent?"
