After Crossing, I Marked the Empress

Chapter 175: Clean Up Rivals

The search and rescue near Kazas Bridge lasted more than half an hour.

The magnificent sunset turned into a setting sun, and the soldiers still did not find any trace of the target person.

Kuntina Ji was holding the salvaged Shen Han hat, tears falling down.

After Julie answered the phone, she squatted in front of the little princess and said, “Shen Han is fine, she has already changed into clean clothes and went to stand guard!”

Hearing what the maid said, Quintina Ji immediately raised her eyes to look at each other.

The little princess’ green pupils are drenched in mist, like the clear water of a jade pond.

That clean and clear appearance is like an autumn fairy tale.

“Is she all right?”

“It’s okay, I don’t think that guard is that good either. It made you cry. We won’t care about her anymore!”

Quintina Kee sniffed and said very seriously, “But I still want to see her.”

As she said that, she folded her hands and placed it lightly on her chest: “My heart is beating a little faster, it seems to be pounding.”

Julie was stunned for a while, and then whispered to remind the other party: “Princess, you are scared.”

“It’s not heartbeat, it’s fear.”

Quintina Ji lowered her eyes and looked at the ink-colored military cap that she put on her lap, and asked aloud, “Can I ask my brother to find the lady and keep Shen Han?”

As soon as she heard this, Julie felt her temples start to ache.

She patiently explained to the little ancestor in front of her: “You can’t do that. What happened when Shen Han fell into the lake just now must have spread in the palace.”

“We know it was just an accident, but some tongue-in-cheek folks are going to gossip and it’s going to be bad for your reputation.”

“If you want the prince to ask for someone from the queen, this matter will definitely brew into a royal scandal.”

Perhaps the ‘royal scandal’ was a bit more lethal, and Quintina Ji quickly dismissed the idea of letting Shen Han stay in the palace.

She thought about it for a while, and then continued to ask: “Then during these days in Kesen Luodian, she takes time to come and play with me every day, is that okay?”

Julie has a toothache.

But seeing that the little ancestor had taken a big step back, she didn’t dare to deny it any more, so she nodded stiffly.

“Then let’s go.”

Quintina Ji laughed through her tears, holding the wet military hat in her hand, and walked straight towards a banquet hall in the palace.

Julie hurried to keep up, she was a little anxious: “Princess, where are we going?”

“I’ll go to the banquet hall to find the queen. She can arrange Shen Han’s time, so I won’t bother my brother about this.”

Listening to the words of the little princess, Julie’s scalp numb, and she reached out to support the other party: “Princess, your skirt is dirty, and your face is full of tears. You can’t run to the banquet hall in such an image.”

“Well, let’s go back to the room and change clothes first, and then I’ll make a phone call with the lady’s assistant to make an appointment for you, and then you’ll go to see the lady, so that it’s proper etiquette.”

Hearing this, Quintina Ji held her skirt in one hand and Shen Han’s military cap in the other, turned her direction happily, and started walking towards her residence.

“Then you help me make an appointment to meet tonight. They are very busy in the morning. Don’t disturb the lady’s work.”

…

Gu Junwan had just finished attending the ladies’ dinner when Xu Zhao approached her with a strange expression.

“What’s wrong?”

Listening to the question from his daughter-in-law, Xu Zhao quickly said softly: “Your Majesty, the little girl has invited you to meet tonight.”

Hearing this, Gu Junwan’s phoenix eyes immediately flashed a trace of curiosity: “What does she want to talk to me about?”

Xu Zhao turned his head and saw that no one was paying attention to his side, and then he answered cautiously, “She wants Shen Han to take time to play with her, knowing that only you can decide this matter, so she wants to ask you for something. time.”

What she wanted to say was ‘I want to ask you for someone’.

But after thinking about it, I felt that this statement might make the lady unhappy, so the words came to my lips, and I changed them again.

It means the same thing, but it sounds more gentle than asking for time.

While speaking, Xu Zhao kept paying attention to the look of the lady.

She felt that the little princess was really brave enough to dare to run up to the queen to jump around.

Gu Junwan’s face was as usual, no one could see her emotions at the moment.

But special assistant Xu, who was familiar with her temperament, knew that the cute little princess with long silver hair was going to be cleaned up!

After thinking for a while, Gu Junwan said, “Go and check it out. At 9:30 tonight, let her come to see me at Shengya Church.”

The corners of her lips twitched slightly, and there was a dim light in her squinting phoenix eyes.

Such a lady is rarely seen by Xu Zhao.

At the same time very attractive, there is also a hint of danger.

Xu Zhao nodded like pecking at rice, and after accompanying Gu Junwan out of the venue, she went to the side to make a phone call to arrange a meeting tonight.

Seeing his wife’s figure appearing at the door, Shen Han, who was standing outside the door of the venue, immediately greeted him.

She handed him a thin suit jacket, and then silently escorted him back to his residence.

The temperature of the palace in midsummer is not low, but the night wind can easily make the skin cold.

Gu Junwan draped the coat stained with her alha body temperature over her shoulders, and the familiar warmth instantly enveloped her, making her feel comfortable and ironed.

The two walked on the stone road one after the other, and the moonlight sprinkled down from the sky, pulling the two figures out of the ground with a long shadow.

The invisible breath slowly blends between the ao couples, warm and beautiful.

After a few calls, the docking work between St. Asia Church and the little princess has been completed.

Carrying the briefcase, Xu Zhao walked quickly towards Gu Junwan’s side, but just after chasing a few meters away, she slowed down.

She looked up at the two people who were walking under the moon, and felt that the atmosphere was so harmonious.

Just like the freehand painting under the artist’s pen, the thick ink and light colors are all scenery, and adding more strokes will destroy the artistic conception of the picture.

Xu Zhao’s eyes shifted slightly, and fell to the tall alha who was walking behind the queen.

She sincerely felt that Shen Han was not easy.

When she continued to wait in the corner of the venue, she had already learned the whole story of the ‘falling bridge incident’ through her own channels.

In that situation, the little princess was about to fall in front of her eyes, what else could Shen Han do?

Help it, you may get into trouble.

Don’t help, if the little princess bumps into each other, Shen Han can’t get rid of it either.

Isn’t that the only option for jumping into the lake?

Although it is a little extreme, it does solve the problem.

After tonight, I think that little princess can’t be willful in this matter anymore.

Just kidding, which time did the lady take a shot that didn’t hit the nail on the head?

Thinking of this, Xu Zhao couldn’t help but gossip.

She can’t wait to set the hour hand directly to 9:30 to see what method her mistress will take to attack her rival this time!

The time soon came to 9 o’clock at night.

The team members of Shen Han’s team just changed their posts and went back to rest.

Gu Junwan took Xu Zhao and the two guards from the second group out.

The gorgeous dress that the lady was wearing when she went to the banquet had been changed. At this time, she was wearing a dark suit.

The style of the suit is tough, and the style is somewhat close to the federal military uniform. With a pair of leather short boots, the overall shape gives people an indescribable neatness.

Xu Zhao’s eyes straightened behind the lenses.

She felt that the lady in front of her was like the countess who walked out of the mural and was about to rush to the dark night battlefield full of unknowns.

…

St. Asia’s Church is located directly opposite the Palace Square.

It is one of the largest churches in Kösenlawen, with ancient and mottled stone walls and brilliant stained glass.

Looking from afar, there is always an indescribable solemnity and holiness.

After passing through the magnificent promenade, the queen and her party came to the chapel.

The arc-shaped dome sheds light, reflecting the gray porcelain floor clean and bright.

Two guards stood outside the door, while Xu Zhao followed behind Gu Junwan into the hall-like chapel.

The hall was very quiet, and an old priest with gray hair was sitting on a bench in the front row.

After hearing the footsteps, he slowly got up and greeted the lady with a smile.

Gu Junwan nodded and returned the salute, and indicated that she did not need reception here.

The old priest nodded, turned around and sat back in the chair without any hesitation.

He bent slightly, wondering if he was praying silently or closing his eyes.

Seeing the other party’s ignoring attitude, Xu Zhao felt a little dissatisfied.

She knew that the clergy in the church were not powerful, but they weren’t so indifferent, were they? Anyway, politely ask two questions.

Gu Junwan didn’t care at all.

After seeing the old priest’s demeanor, there was even a flash of satisfaction in her eyes.

She would choose to meet Quintina Ji in this place, naturally not because she believed in the religion of Kesen Luodian.

It’s because this St. Asia Church is Prince Joles’ ‘private intelligence station’!

She captured this information in previous conversations with Joles.

She knows that all the clergy here are the eyes and ears of the other party, and the old priest who is like a wild crane seems to be indifferent to the world, but in fact, this person’s identity is actually almost the same as the intelligence chief.

To put it simply, the conversation between myself and the little princess here will not reach Joles overnight.

After a while, Quintina Ji brought her maid to St. Asia Church.

She also changed into a dress. Her long silver hair was wrapped around her head and combed into a ball-shaped head. A delicate little crown was worn on it, with a sweet temperament, like a porcelain doll carved from pink and jade.

The little princess was also holding the military cap that Shen Han wore in the afternoon.

As soon as she saw Gu Junwan, she quickly walked over to him.

“Your Majesty, I’m really sorry to disturb you so late.”

Gu Junwan shook her head lightly, signaling the other party to sit down first.

Her eyes swept the familiar hat in the other party’s hand inadvertently, and then said softly: “It’s okay, I heard that you want my captain of the guard to stay in the palace to play with you, can I know the reason?”

Quintina Ji was still struggling with how to speak more politely.

At this time, when she heard that the lady had mentioned this matter directly, her brows were relieved, and she quickly said: “Yes, in the evening she fell off the bridge to save me, and I want to compensate her.”

Gu Junwan leaned back lightly between the chairs, looked sideways at the slightly anxious little princess, and continued to ask, “Oh? What kind of compensation is that?”

The little princess put the general hat on her lap, gestured with both hands, and said, “My brother has a favorite hunting dog. It’s about this size. I want to give it to her.”

“There is a saying in the Free Federation that ‘a gentleman does not take people’s love’. This gift is too precious for her to ask for.”

After hearing the lady’s words, the little princess thought about it seriously, and said again: “Then I will give her the eagle that my brother likes second, okay?”

Not far away, the old priest, who was burying his head and trying to reduce his presence, shook his long eyebrows slightly.

He curled the corners of his mouth and wrote down another point of information in his mind.
