I turned the cold palace into a paradise

Will Chapter 120 come true?

"Manager Wei, what do you have to say?" Yun Yue looked at Manager Wei coldly. She never thought that this kind man who cared about the children would have such a cruel deal with the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"I have nothing to say. I was also deceived. I thought they were really going to be maids." Manager Wei sighed with his eyes lowered.

"You're still lying!!! Where can you only recruit maids under eight years old? What can you do when you're that young!" Si Yin said angrily. She was so angry that she stepped hard on Jixiang.

Jixiangtong's facial features were all squeezed together.

Steward Wei was still stubborn and looked innocent: "I really don't know! I have taken care of them for so long, they are all my children! I really don't have the money to support so many people. When I heard that the Prime Minister's Mansion needed maids, I thought that I had money to support these children and they would have a good place to go. I was so happy that I didn't think too much."

Seeing that Steward Wei was still stubborn, Yun Yue was extremely disappointed and asked, "Steward Wei, are you doing this to the late queen?"

Steward Wei, who was originally calm, seemed to have been poked in a sore spot, and shouted at Yunyue angrily: "What do you know!!! You are not allowed to mention the Queen! I do this for the Queen!"

"For her? I'm afraid the Queen will be so angry if she knows you did this! Tell me! What is the purpose of the Queen establishing the orphanage?"

Steward Wei's eyes were filled with emotions. With anger and helplessness, he said, "Then tell me, what can I do? This is the nursery that the queen built with great effort! After the queen passed away, fewer people came here frequently."

"Fortunately, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still alive, and he sends money every month to support the orphanage. But after His Royal Highness the Crown Prince passed away last year, the money here has dried up."

I could only go around collecting donations and asking for help. No one, no one was willing to help us... It was as if this place suddenly disappeared from the world. Those dignitaries who wanted to live here before suddenly turned a blind eye to these children! No one was willing to donate money anymore. Even if they went to Zuichunlou, it would be enough for all the children here to not go hungry for several months!

"At this time, Jixiang came and said he wanted to buy a maid... Even though I had doubts, but with so many children, do you want me to watch them starve to death?"

"My queen said that this is the home of the orphans, and it is also our home. I can't let this family break up!"

"You rich people who talk about morality and justice, how can you understand our difficulties? For money, I even sell myself, but no one wants someone like me! I can't even sell my body. Tell me, what else can I do? What else can I do!"

"Yes, I did sell a few children, but I used all the money on them! I didn't spend a penny on myself! You, what right do you have to blame me! What qualifications do you have to blame me? "

"In this world, only the Queen can say that I am wrong. That's when I am truly wrong!"

Manager Wei took advantage of Yun Yue and the other man's distraction, picked up the dagger that had fallen on the ground, and put it to their necks.

"Manager Wei, don't!" Yun Yue hurriedly stopped him.

"Miss Yue, I know you are a good person. I will leave these children to you. I know that I am being irresponsible, but I really have no choice... I will personally go down and apologize to those children who died!" As he said this, Manager Wei cut his neck hard and fell in a pool of blood...

Wei Guanshi seemed to see the queen in a trance. She was still as beautiful as when she first saw her. So gentle, so powerful.

"Yuanxiang, you are wrong." The queen said with pity and disappointment.

"Master... Yuanxiang knows she was wrong. Yuanxiang has betrayed your trust and failed to fulfill your last wish..." Wei Yuanxiang wanted to grab the Queen, but stopped when she looked at her bloodshot hands.

Wei Yuanxiang thought, if she had accompanied her master when she left, would her hands not be stained with blood... would the queen not be disappointed...

……

Wei Yuanxiang lay numbly on the haystack, tightly clutching the moldy steamed bun. She didn't care even though she heard the man's teasing voice.

Suddenly the man on her was thrown aside, and a beautiful woman put a gorgeous coat on her.

"It's okay, don't be afraid." The woman's voice was as beautiful as her body, making Wei Yuanxiang feel ashamed and shrink back.

"what's your name?"

"Wei Yuanxiang."

"Do you... have any family?"

"Nothing."

"Then are you willing to follow me? I have an orphanage full of children and women. No one will bully you there, and you can also have enough food to eat."

Wei Yuanxiang could clearly see the pain in her eyes.

Feeling sorry for her? Why would she feel sorry for someone like her? She doesn't even feel sorry for herself...

"Okay." She wanted to see whether this man's heartache was real or fake.

Anyway, I don’t care about myself, it doesn’t matter who I follow.

……

"Yuan Xiang, you are great! You take good care of the children! You manage everything very well. You can be the manager of the orphanage from now on!"

"Okay! Yuanxiang will not let the master down!" Wei Yuanxiang solemnly acknowledged.

Wei Yuanxiang looked at the woman in front of her. She already knew that the person who saved her was the Queen of Tianchen.

She should be high and mighty, spotless.

But she not only saved herself from the dust and dirt, she also often came to the orphanage to be with them, taking care of the children, washing clothes and cooking for them.

Wei Yuanxiang often thought that the Queen must be a fairy from heaven, who came down to earth to save people like them who had fallen into the quagmire.

She once asked her, "Why do you have to do all this?" She was obviously the queen, so she didn't have to do this herself.

The Queen said gently but firmly.

"I am no different from you. I was just born into a good family. Since I have this ability, I should do these things. Women are having a hard time, so I will help them as much as I can. Women in the world are one, and helping them is a direct help. Perhaps, women in the future will no longer encounter these hardships..."

……

but,

My Lady...

Will your wish really come true?

Wei Yuanxiang closed her eyes with regret and relief.

Yunyue looked at Manager Wei lying in a pool of blood, and her heart was not at peace for a long time.

Manager Wei took the late queen to heart and was willing to risk his life and do whatever it took to protect the orphanage.

But reality dealt her a heavy blow, and she had no other options left so she finally chose this method.

Is she a good person? No, she used the lives of those innocent girls to exchange for the survival of the orphanage only temporarily. If this continues, these children who are forced to eat human blood will only end up in the same fate.

Is she a bad person? No, she loyally wants to fulfill the Queen's wish and just wants the children in the orphanage to live well...

She is just a pitiful person of this era...
