Queen is fearless

Chapter 718 Want to leave the palace

Zhou Jun reached a consensus with the Lian family. After leaving Zhuangzi, Zhou Jun returned to the capital in a carriage and went straight to the palace.

I didn't expect Zhou Jun to go and come back, but seeing the joy on his face, I knew what was going on.

Zhou Jing didn't make it difficult on purpose, and wrote a marriage proposal by himself. As for the date of marriage, Dianzhong Province will decide for them based on their birthdays.

The decree of the marriage was made, and soon, the queen and concubine Hui in the palace knew about it.

When Zhou Jing returned to Fengyang Palace in the evening, Gu Jinzhi asked a few more questions. She was very happy to know that Zhou Jun was coming back and that he and Lian Shi were going to get married.

"Let Hongxiu take a look tomorrow and help pick out some things to send to Lian Shi as a dowry."

When Lien's gets married, she must accompany her in the dowry, not only her, but also Concubine Hui.

Seeing the smile on her face, Zhou Jing didn't say much, it was expected.

The next day, Concubine Hui came to Fengyang Palace and talked to Gu Jinzhi about Lian's and Zhou Jun's marriage.

"This palace has prepared these things, take a look, if there is anything missing, you can add some more."

Knowing that Concubine Hui would also prepare a dowry, Gu Jinzhi smiled and handed the list to her.

Concubine Hui reached out to take it, looked at it carefully, and had an idea in her heart.

"There is something I want to discuss with my empress." After giving the list to Zhishu, after returning to Zhaochun Palace, she will prepare what she wants to give to Lian Shi according to the list.

"Let's talk." Gu Jinzhi nodded, looking at Concubine Hui, actually had some premonition in his heart.

Since she came here, Concubine Hui has been there. At that time, she was not Concubine Hui, but a noble concubine.

When the emperor was still the prince, Concubine Hui was by his side. If she hadn't stopped her, she would have been promoted to be the second-rank wife last year.

After so many years in the palace, she has seen newcomers enter the palace and dead people leave the palace. It is impossible for her to stay in the palace for the rest of her life.

"I don't know how to say this." Although I had an idea in my heart, when I really wanted to speak, I didn't know how to say it.

"You want to leave the palace?" She didn't know what to say, but Gu Jinzhi simply helped her out, and Concubine Hui couldn't help being startled.

"I have known for a long time that sooner or later, you will tell me this sentence, yes, how can you stay in the palace for the rest of your life?"

"In the past, once you enter the palace, you can only stay in the palace forever. You are born as a member of the royal family and die as a ghost of the royal family. But it is different now. It is not the past. Therefore, it is impossible for you to stay in the palace forever."

Now all the concubines in the harem stay here voluntarily, and they are unwilling to go out of the palace.

Back then when Concubine Hui stayed, she didn't want to go out of the palace because she didn't think about her future, but more, she wanted to help her.

Even if the relationship between the two is good, the love is deep, and they have helped enough, she is still young, and she should not wait until she is very old before letting her go out of the palace.

In that case, even if she had any wish or what she wanted to do, she would not be able to do it.

"Thank you, empress." The queen took the initiative to say what she wanted to say, and she knew that as long as she wanted to leave, empress would definitely allow it.

Not only that, but he will arrange everything properly for himself, so that he has no worries.

"It should be Bengong who thanks you, thank you for being with me all these years, and thank you for helping me, taking care of everything well."

"Have you thought about what to do after leaving the palace?" Since he wanted to leave, he must have a plan.

"I told Sister Lian before that if I leave the palace, my concubine wants to take a walk around first. When I get tired of walking and don't want to leave, I will set up a Zhuangzi outside the capital, just like the one where my sister lives. , or, build a house in the capital."

"If the emperor and the empress were both in the capital at that time, the concubine would often visit the palace to visit the empress. If the emperor and the empress went out to play, the concubine would wait for the empress to come back."

Concubine Hui knew that the emperor and the empress had been looking forward to the prince growing up, so that the emperor could pass the throne to the prince and take the empress out of the palace to see the great rivers and mountains of Great Zhou.

She didn't know how far she would go after she went out. In short, when she came back, it would definitely be a few years.

At that time, the prince had grown up.

"It's good that you have a plan. If you need it, just talk to me. Don't be polite. Have you thought about when to leave?"

"My concubine wants to leave the palace after the birthdays of the prince and eldest princess." She has been in the palace, witnessed the birth and growth of the children, and treated them as her own children.

Even if they leave, they want to leave the palace after the siblings' birthdays, when the weather will gradually warm up.

Gu Jinzhi nodded, so, this year's New Year's Eve will be her last New Year's Eve in the palace, and also her last New Year's Eve.

"When the emperor comes back today, I will tell the emperor that the Lian family will not be able to get married so soon. I will order someone to find you a Zhuangzi outside the capital, and you will stay for a while."

Even if he wants to go out for fun, he will definitely wait until after Lian's wedding, so that Gu Jinzhi can get to know her better.

"Then thank you, Ma'am." With the help of the queen, the emperor's side must be fine, and as for Zhuangzi's matter, it is even more fine.

Indeed, she will not leave immediately, she will definitely wait until after sister Lian's wedding before leaving the capital.

Seeing Concubine Hui's answer, Gu Jinzhi chatted with her for a while before sending her away.

When Concubine Hui left, Gu Jinzhi sat on the soft couch, thinking about the little things they got along with each other over the years, and a flash of gratitude flashed in his eyes.

"Your Majesty, don't be sad. Didn't you always hope that Concubine Hui would be as happy as Miss Lian?"

Right now, the Lian family has received a marriage gift and will get married next year. Concubine Hui will leave the palace. By then, she may also find her own happiness.

"Yes, I hope that they will all be happy, and you, if one day, you also change your mind, tell me that you can also go out of the palace."

From the moment she came here until now, Qingluan, Hongxiu, Ziyuan, and Baizhi, the four of them have been following her and are loyal to her. Gu Jinzhi regards them as family members.

If one day they want to leave the palace, not only will she not stop her, but she will try her best to arrange everything for them.

"Your Majesty, I can't say that again. I don't want to go out of the palace." Qingluan frowned. She never thought of going out of the palace. She didn't in the past, she didn't now, and she won't in the future.

As for the others...it must be the same idea as hers.

"What I'm talking about is just in case. Besides, I won't stay in the palace forever. After Yuan Cheng inherits the throne, I and the emperor can leave the palace and travel around."

"At that time, will you all stay in the palace? You will definitely follow me out of the palace. I don't know what it was like at that time..."
