Chen Qingtang didn't know that no matter what she did, there was always a pair of eyes staring at her silently.

Just like now, after she got off the carriage, she got on the palace sedan and went to the Qian Palace to pay her respects to the Queen.

He Yuanzhou looked deeply at Chen Qingtang's departing back, took a deep breath, turned around, got on the sedan and left.

When Xie Jinyun saw Chen Qingtang, she felt a little reluctant. She held Chen Qingtang's hand and called out, "Sister-in-law, thank you for taking care of the household affairs."

Chen Qingtang smiled and said, "Your Majesty, when you say that, you are treating me as an outsider. Since I married into the Xie family, I am also a member of the Xie family. I must put the Xie family first in everything. I will settle the family while my husband will settle the country. Only when the couple is united can the family live long and peacefully. In terms of worrying, your Majesty has to worry more than me. You are in this position, and you have to bear more responsibilities than me, a woman in the harem."

Xie Jinyun thought that it would not be long before news came from Xiguan that her elder brother had faked his death, so she did not dare to look Chen Qingtang in the eye.

She lowered her head, patted Chen Qingtang's hand and said, "It's not easy. This time, I asked my sister-in-law to come to the palace because I want to run a girls' school and only hire female teachers for girls to study."

Chen Qingtang's eyes lit up, and she was very interested in this matter: "I am willing to take this job."

"I'm afraid there will be another storm by then." Xie Jinyun raised his eyes slightly and glanced at Chen Qingtang: "After all, there are still a lot of gossips about the dim sum shop. Are you mentally prepared, sister-in-law?"

Chen Qingtang smiled and said, "My father said that no matter how great a person's deeds are, they can never satisfy everyone. Since they are not satisfied, we should just do things that please ourselves. Why should we seek the understanding of the world in everything?"

Chen Qingtang's ideas are always more transcendent than others, which is why Xie Jinyun can talk to Chen Qingtang.

"Besides letting girls go to school, what is your ambition, Her Majesty?" Chen Qingtang asked again. Xie Jinyun said, "In the future, girls will also be able to serve as officials in the court."

This bold idea did not surprise Chen Qingtang. Instead, he gave her a thumbs up and said with a smile, "I support you."

Huaxi came to Chen Qingtang holding the money box.

Xie Jinyun said: "This is the cost of running the school. If it is not enough..."

"Your Majesty cannot take all the benefits, fame and fortune for yourself. You have to leave some room for the Xie family and let us all benefit from the Empress. I will take care of the remaining expenses." Chen Qingtang took the money box from Hua Xi's hand with a smile.

Xie Jinyun was deeply touched when she knew that everyone in the Xie family was fully supporting her and Gu Changning.

When Chen Qingtang was about to leave the palace, Xie Jinyun held Chen Qingtang's hand tightly, seeming to want to say something but stopping herself.

Seeing this, Chen Qingtang asked in a low voice: "Sister, do you have anything else to say?"

She looked at Xie Jinyun's expression, which was unusual. She suddenly remembered Xie Ci who was far away on the battlefield. Her heart sank. She patted the back of Xie Jinyun's hand and said, "I know that my husband is a general. It is his duty to go to the battlefield and kill the enemy. I am also always ready for him to die on the battlefield. If my husband has any news, please don't hide it. I can accept it and will protect the Xie family for my husband."

Xie Jinyun's breathing was rapid, his eyes were red, and he said in a choked voice: "Sister-in-law, go back and wait for news. Don't worry too much. A dragon trapped in a deep pool can also have the opportunity to turn over and become a dragon. The same is true for my brother." (End of this chapter)
