After meeting the Empress Dowager, Prince Duan and Shen Jingshu originally planned to visit the Empress. Although the Empress did not necessarily want to see them, the Empress was the ruler of the harem after all, so it was hard for the two of them to meet.
It's just that the queen mother didn't let the two of them go because the queen was copied from the "Ksitigarbha Sutra" by the emperor and it was inconvenient to stay in her own palace.
The first time I was so close to the emperor, Shen Jingshu used to feel that the emperor was very majestic and unattainable, but when she really got in touch, Shen Jingshu found that the emperor's character was actually very gentle, and when she saw them coming, she didn't let them go Dali, let them get up immediately, "Get up, let me take a good look, this is a marriage, but what's the difference?"
"Your majesty..." Prince Duan's relationship with the emperor is good in private, and they are cousins, so they are more casual when there is no one else.
"Well, it's really different, the whole person seems to have changed a bit, the concubine Shizi is quite capable!" She looked at Shen Jingshu with a smile, and she didn't look at it carefully before, only thinking that the daughter of the Shen family seemed to be pretty good. Taking a closer look at this moment, I found that Shen Jingshu's eyebrows were very peaceful, and her appearance was also very good, but this woman was not ostentatious, and her behavior and behavior were just right. It seems that this world concubine, he gave a good marriage.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your praise!" After getting in touch with a person who used to be so far away, Shen Jingshu realized that the emperor was completely different from what he usually saw. It's easier to get along with.
"Okay, there's no one here, so you're welcome, come and sit down, let's talk for a while, Jin, you haven't played chess with me for a long time."
"Your servant should accompany you!"
"Okay, let's play a few more games!" Soon he ordered people to prepare things, the emperor sat down with Prince Duan, and began to play chess. Both of them were very focused, and Shen Jingshu was sensible and didn't bother, she just sat and watched, she also knew chess, and she often played with Shen Wenhua before, and now she was watching very vigorously. On the contrary, the emperor looked at Shen Jingshu seriously, and was a little curious, "The princess knows chess?"
"Know a thing or two."
"Really? Then I'm not afraid that the imperial concubine will be bored." Smiling, the emperor didn't say anything, and continued to play chess with Duan Wang Shizi, but he never ignored Shen Jingshu, and finally played a game with Shen Jingshu, and found that Shen Jingshu's chess skills are good, so she was even more surprised, "It seems that I have found a good opponent again!"
"Your majesty, it's enough to have a minister with you." Knowing that the emperor loves chess, Prince Duan also doesn't want his wife to play chess with other men. When he said it so suddenly, the emperor was a little surprised, but then he figured it out, and he was not angry, "I didn't expect that you would have such a day, Jin. It seems that I did a good thing this time. This marriage is a good gift." , Come on, reward!"
The emperor was very happy today, and rewarded a lot of good things, and left the two of them to eat together. Later, he asked Prince Duan to ask questions, Shen Jingshu stayed outside obediently, and waited for Prince Duan to come out. There was nothing wrong with Wang Shizi's expression, and Shen Jingshu was relieved.
"It's getting late, let's go back!"
"The emperor..."
"The emperor still has things to deal with, we can go on our own!" Pulling Shen Jingshu away, this time entering the palace, I did not see the queen, nor did I encounter any accidents, everything seemed very complete. When the two returned to the palace, as soon as they entered the door, someone came over, "My lord, my concubine, are you back?"
"what's the matter?"
"My lord ordered that the son and concubine have dinner together in the hall at night." Prince Duan and his son had few opportunities to eat together, he didn't like that kind of atmosphere, he always felt like an outsider. When he was not married, he would try to avoid coming back to eat, but now that he is married, it is not easy to avoid it. The other party asked someone to say that it is not easy for Prince Duan to refuse, "Okay, I understand."
Pulling Shen Jingshu back to the yard, Duan Wangshizi's face seemed a little weird, Shen Jingshu saw it, and was a little worried, "If you don't want to eat, you don't have to force it for me." It's very convenient, but with her, many things have to be considered for her.
"I'm fine. Anyway, there are not many opportunities to eat together. I'm just afraid that I won't be able to eat anything later. I'll ask someone to make some food first, so that you won't be hungry at night."
"You, you think too much." Shen Jingshu never thought that she would not be full, but Prince Duan still ordered people to make some food to fill his stomach first, and when it was time to eat dinner, Shen Jingshu didn't want to eat. Finally, I understand why.
There are not many people eating in the hall, except for Duan Wang and Duan Wangfei, there is Hua side concubine, and Zhang side concubine, this Zhang side concubine Shen Jingshu has never seen yesterday, I heard that she was not feeling well yesterday, so no Come out, even though she came out now, she didn't look very well, Shen Jingshu felt strange. Why don't these two side concubines seem to be in good health
Those who can be side concubines are naturally not bad in status, and it seems that the appearance of both of them is of the upper class, but this body is...
Looking at Concubine Hua, Shen Jingshu knew that it was because she had hurt her body during childbirth and hadn't recuperated well, so she was a little weak, and this Concubine Zhang...
Looking at the other party's face, she was also a little pale, and she looked weaker than Concubine Hua. Shen Jingshu remembered that this Concubine Zhang had conceived a child before, but it was stillborn when she was born. Concubine Zhang may have been stimulated too much, her whole person feels a bit sinister, her thin body makes people feel pitiful, but her eyes are a bit aggressive, it can be seen that she is not easy to get along with.
The other two concubines, Yuwen Qianer sat generously, while Yuwen Qinger lowered her head, giving off a cautious feeling.
To Shen Jingshu's surprise, Yuwen City, whom she hadn't seen yesterday, also came. His legs were still wrapped, and he didn't look well. Now that he was sitting there, Shen Jingshu could clearly feel that the other party was looking at them There was a kind of hatred in his eyes, and on his face similar to Duan Wang, there was a gloomy, very unfriendly look, which Shen Jingshu consciously ignored.
There is no good banquet, Shen Jingshu felt the atmosphere was a bit weird when she entered, she couldn't explain it, and suddenly understood why Prince Duan said he was not full.
"My son, my concubine, are you here? Sit down quickly, everyone is here, I'll be waiting for you!" Once again implying that Shen Jingshu and Prince Duan's late arrival made them wait for a long time, Princess Duan still smiled , that loving gaze, and that gentle tone, are like a gentle bayonet, piercing the enemy's heart bit by bit, and finally let the opponent die without a place to bury him!
"My good brother, you came so early, you are really doing a great job of letting the father and mother wait, brother!" Compared to Duan Wangfei's bloodless words, Yuwencheng was very rude. , These words are very explicit, making people uncomfortable to listen to, and Wang Duan really exploded, "I said that we will have dinner together, why didn't we arrive earlier? Let us all wait for you, the more airy It's getting bigger, isn't it?" What Wang Duan dislikes the most is waiting for someone, but it's his son and daughter-in-law who are waiting, so Wang Duan naturally feels uncomfortable. Especially when he thought that Prince Duan always disobeyed him, he felt even more uncomfortable!
This villain is really getting more and more plausible!
"Father, big brother is so arrogant. Now he is General Xiaoqi, who can control him?" Adding to the fire, Yuwen City has always hated Prince Duan's son. Thinking, it would be great if this person disappeared, then he is Prince Duan's son, and he is the legitimate heir of Prince Duan's mansion. How is it like this now
"My son, you are really getting more and more presumptuous!" The second son's words successfully set Prince Duan on fire. When Prince Duan's son saw him, he didn't have much reaction, but just stated the facts very plainly, "Father, what are you doing?" It's not time to eat." Remind the other party that meals are also scheduled at Prince Duan's mansion, although people have arrived at this moment, but it is indeed not time to eat, King Duan looked worried when he heard this, Princess Duan smiled and motioned for them to sit down. Excuse me, "It's because we arrived early, so we waited for a long time. Come and sit down. It's rare for the family to eat together. Everyone should be happy! Don't make trouble because of such a trivial matter." Soothe King Duan and return He gave Yuwencheng a warning look. Since this son fell off the horse and broke his leg, his character has become more and more restless. Who can hide such a blatant provocation? Her hard work these years cannot be wasted!
"In future occasions like this, try to come as early as possible. You are a junior, so why don't you let the elders wait for you?" Ever since he found out that Prince Duan was gradually unable to control him, King Duan has been trying to control Prince Duan and suppress him everywhere. , but sometimes, there is no other way. Because Prince Duan didn't buy into him at all!
"Yes, Father!" He should have agreed, but Prince Duan didn't want to have too much contact with these people, and he didn't come until the last moment when he had to attend, so as not to feel uncomfortable.
"Okay, let's all sit down, everyone is here, order to serve!" As if feeling that he would not have any advantage in this matter, Duan Wang temporarily ignored it.
"Yes, my lord!" There are not many opportunities to eat together, and the relationship between father and son is also very weak. Prince Duan and Shen Jingshu didn't eat much after sitting down. Both of them were very silent. He felt that she and Prince Duan were more like outsiders, so it was no wonder that Prince Duan had that expression just now.
"Father, this is your favorite pine flower fish, try it!"
"Okay, your injury is not healed, drink some bone soup, it will be good for your body!"
"Thank you father!"
"My lord, my concubine picked out the thorns for you, you can eat them."
"Eat more too!"
