An Eight-year-old Princess

Chapter 1154 A Win-Win Solution

Back from the Taiji Palace, Yun Shang saw a pamphlet on the table. She raised her eyebrows and

asked, "What's this?"

Qian Zhuo, who was tidying up things, replied: "Your majesty, this is the pamphlet sent by sister Qin Yi

just now. It's a summary of the affairs in Imperial Household Department last month."

"Sister Qin Yi said that there were too many things last month. If she reported all of them to you, you

wouldn't have enough time. So she made a brief record of all the things. You can have a look at it when

you have time. If you have any questions about anything, you can send someone to call her over."

Yun Shang smiled, "I believe Qin Yi's ability."

Her eyes paused on the pamphlet, but then she remembered something, "There are too many things

recently, and I can't care about many things. The pamphlet suddenly occurrs to me that Zhao Yingjie

has returned to the Jin city."

"A few days ago, I told Zhao Yingjie to hold their wedding while he is in the Jin city. But if they are going

to get married, Qin Yi can't stay in the palace anymore. After that, she should live in the general's

mansion."

Qian Zhuo frowned, "But we are short of people and the affairs in imperial household department are

very important. If Qin Yi leaves the Imperial Palace, who could take in charge of the Imperial

Household Department?"

"Qin Yi has been with me for so many years. Now that she finally found someone to spend the rest of

her life with, I can't restrain her. We can find someone else to handle the affairs of Imperial Household

Department. And even if she leaves the palace, she can still work for me, just like Qian Yin. "

Yun Shang flipped through the pamphlet and thought for a moment. "Send someone to invite Qin Yi

here. She had been in Imperial Household Department for a long time, so she should have known it

well. I'll ask her if she has a good candidate and ask her to train her subconsciously during this period

of time. If it doesn't work, I'll send you or Qian Liu to take in charge of Imperial Household Department.

"

Qian Zhuo nodded and went out to order the servants.

Qin Yi arrived soon. As soon as she entered the room, she saw Yun Shang reading the pamphlet that

she had just sent to her. Qin Yi immediately asked, "Your majesty, do you have any question about the

pamphlet? You can ask whatever you want... "

Yun Shang smiled, "I didn't ask you to come here for this."

Yun Shang closed the pamphlet and looked up at Qin Yi. She pointed at the chair opposite her and

said, "Have a seat. I have something to discuss with you."

Qin Yi's eyes were full of doubts. She just sat down as Yun Shang said and stared at Yun Shang.

"General Zhao has returned to Jin City. Have you seen him?"

Qin Yi thought that Yun Shang had something important to talk to her, so she was surprised when she

mentioned Zhao Yingjie. Her face flushed and she nodded slightly. "Yes. A few days ago, General Zhao

came to see me after greeting her former majesty."

"Since you've met him, did he mention it to you? I'm going to hold your wedding when he's in Jin City?"

"Yes, he did." Qin Yi frowned, "But I don't want to get married. I just want to stay with your majesty and

work for you."

"Nonsense." Yun Shang didn't know whether to cry or to laugh. "How can a girl not get married all her

life? You are not young anymore. If you don't get married, you will become an old girl. Besides, it's not

easy to meet someone who really treats you well. Don't let General Zhao wait too long. "

Hearing Yun Shang's words, Qin Yi fell silent again.

"As you said before, I'm in charge of your marriage, so I'll decide it." Yun Shang said firmly, "I'll arrange

for someone to choose a good day when I'm free. I'll send someone to inform you when the day is

chosen."

"Okay." Qin Yi lowered her eyes and answered in a low voice.

"You've been with me for so many years, and I don't have anything to give to you. Besides, General

Zhao is his majesty's brother. I'll take care of this marriage. I will ask the Shangyi Bureau to prepare

your wedding dress and jewelry. You don't need to worry about them. Just wait for your wedding. "

"And I will ask his majesty to confer you with the title of princess and a mansion. When you are about

to get married, you can move out of the palace and live in that mansion. Then you can get married from

there."

Hearing this, Qin Yi suddenly raised her head and said in panic, "No, your majesty!"

"Well, I've made up my mind." Yun Shang raised her hand and interrupted her, "I know what you are

thinking. Just as I said just now, you have done so many things for me over the years. General Zhao

has feeling for you, so it's reasonable for his majesty to give you the title of princess and a mansion.

Don't refuse. "

Yun Shang smiled, "Other than that, it's the matter of Imperial Household Department. Is there anyone

in Imperial Household Department who can take over your position?"

Qin Yi became more and more restless. "Your majesty, do you want me to leave the palace? You don't

need me to take in charge of Imperial Household Department and work for you? "

"You will definitely leave the palace. You'll be the general's wife after you get married. How can you still

be a servant in the palace? Don't you think others will laugh at you? And you can still work for me after

you leave the palace. It's just your identity will change. "

"If so, I won't get married." Qin Yi pouted and said, "I just want to stay by your majesty's side. The

longer I stay in Imperial Household Department, the more I feel that it's a very important place in the

imperial palace. I must keep an eye on this place for you, but you want me to leave the imperial

palace."

Yun Shang lowered her eyes and smiled, "What nonsense are you talking?"

"I'm not kidding. Besides, I don't think marriage has any conflict with being the director of Imperial

Household Department. The one I will marry is General Zhao who guards the territory of the State of

Xia. General Zhao didn't spend much time in the Jin City in a year. When he is away, I will feel bored

even if I stayed in the general's mansion. I can live in the general's mansion when General Zhao stays

in the Jin City, and when he leads the army to fight, I can enter the palace. "

Yun Shang lowered her eyes and smiled. Qin Yi was always gentle. It was rare for her to insist like this.

However, what she said was also a solution.

"Well, since you insist, just do as you say."

Yun Shang wanted to say something more when Qian Zhuo walking in quickly and said, "Your majesty,

Qian Yin has come. She said she had something important to report to you."Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
