The Empress is Always Unambitious

Chapter 444: Make friends

Views:

Shen Chuliu knew that there were some things that he couldn't help, so he didn't think much about it.

No one in the harem dared to blatantly point at her nose and say she was extravagant.

After all, everything she enjoys is still within the purview of the concubine's position.

As for the emperor's numerous rewards every year, that is another matter.

If the Queen Mother expects her to cry to the Emperor because of this, then she won't. She won't even mention it.

She is not a perfect person, so it's okay to leave some bad things behind.

Anyway, the days are still long. She can't see the end now, so take her time.

Maybe she was too calm, so Chi Su and the others also calmed down.

In Cuiyunxuan, life is going on as usual.

The next day was Zizhu Zirui's wedding. Yuanxiao changed into casual clothes and went out of the palace to marry them.

Naturally, the empress's gift also arrived at this moment. The Ye family and the Xu family, that is, the family of the junior official in the Ministry of War, were both extremely happy.

This man of the Ye family has no father or mother, but relying on the direct branch of the Ye family, it is quite lively, mainly because the family is not short of money.

The Xu family was almost there, but the man received some pension money after returning from the battlefield, and he had sold his ancestral property before and bought this small yard, so he could be considered an ordinary family.

Not rich, but not suffering either.

They are ordinary people under the imperial city.

When Zi Zhu came, she brought a dowry that was enough to support the family.

Both of them came out of the Shen family's palace. They followed the rules of the Shen family's concubines and took the side door.

Weeping and kowtowing to the palace, they went out and sat in sedan chairs and went their separate ways.

Yuanxiao returned to the palace and said everything: "Look at me, the young masters of the Ye family and the young masters of the Xu family are both good. There are no elders in the two families. There are only a few people from the Xu family who are not very close." There is an uncle who seems to be sensible.

"Zizhu is very understanding. She naturally has her reasons for choosing such a person. Besides, my grandmother told me about this Xu family member, so it's certainly not bad."

Yuanxiao smiled apologetically: "Yes. Your Majesty also understands them very well. Zi Zhu has a softer temper, so it's good to live like this."

Shen Chuliu smiled: "Just live well."

"Okay, let's talk about the palace, Su Jieyu, what do you think?" Shen Chuliu asked Yuanxiao.

Yuan Xiao thought for a moment: "Look, I see, Su Jieyu is no longer as thoughtful as before."

Yuanxiao also knew that his master liked to be direct.

Then he said: "In the past, she had a bad status. Firstly, she was the queen of the guilty minister, and secondly, she was a palace maid who was pushed out when the imperial concubine was still alive."

"Now that her Su family has been rehabilitated, she can be regarded as a queen of officialdom. If she has a child again, I'm afraid... she will have more to think about."

"Well, do you think this baby is a prince?" Shen Chuliu asked again.

"This... I don't think this is the case. If so, I guess there should be some news from the Imperial Medical Office. As you know, Dr. Zhao has been very close to us over the years. If there is an introduction to this kind of thing, there should be some news."

"That's not necessarily the case. What if the imperial doctor who diagnosed her pulse refuses to tell her? Even if she knew he was a prince but didn't tell her, or the princess was nothing. In short, no one would give birth to her because of this. Is the imperial doctor guilty?" Shen Chuliu gently touched the pattern on his sleeves.

"Su Jieyu is a powerful person. She still has this skill, right?"

"Master, what you said makes sense, but if it is really the prince, what if she tried so hard to cover it up? Is she afraid of being killed? But whether it is a boy or a girl, you won't be able to tell within five or six months. After five or six months, it will be It's safe." Yuan Xiao was puzzled.

"In short, it doesn't matter if it's a boy or a girl, she will be promoted to the throne after this baby is born. She has been favored over the years, so it's time for her to move up."

Shen Chuliu sighed: "What I want to say is, no matter what happens to her, just keep an eye on her. I don't trust her."

"Yes, master, don't worry, my slave will do his best." Yuan Xiao also knew it in his heart. The master of Su's sea area had a good time for a while, but then it gradually faded away.

When did it fade away

It was the time when Su Jieyu was pregnant and had a miscarriage for the first time.

After that, the master stopped getting close to her.

Speaking of which, in this harem, the masters may not be smart and can still survive, but if they are not smart as personal slaves, they really can't survive.

Therefore, Yuanxiao and the others should try to figure out Shen Chuliu's thoughts and know what this Su family is like.

After Yuanxiao left, Jimei brought the tea: "Master, I just brewed it."

Shen Chuliu nodded and picked it up.

"It's almost lunch time. Yan'er should come back. Do you want to bring your companion back today?"

"Back to Master, yes, I said I was going to Luming Lake in the afternoon." Ji Mei said.

"It's already cold, and you want to go again? What are you going to do?" Shen Chuliu still has some lingering fears about Luming Lake. It's okay for her to go by herself, but she's a little worried about her children going there.

"You said you are going fishing, master, don't worry, boys of this age will just remember whatever comes to mind." Chi Su said with a smile.

Shen Chuliu nodded: "That's all, I won't say anything about bringing more people. After all, what happened last time will never happen again."

If it happens again, then you don’t want to live anymore.

She couldn't raise her child to be afraid of everything. Otherwise, what would she do in the future

She can't protect her child forever, there will always be a time when he becomes independent.

Sure enough, after a cup of tea, the Sixth Prince came with his two companions.

The Sixth Prince came to greet him with his companion, and it was quite eye-catching for three boys of one size and another to stand together.

Since he has entered the palace as a companion, his natural appearance cannot be bad.

So these two children are also looking good.

Meals were quickly put on the table. The sixth prince liked to eat a lot, and he obediently picked up the food for his own mother.

Both Shen Chuliu and Shen Chuliu accepted it with a smile.

The two companions were a bit reserved. After all, they were so old and it was a bit awkward to eat at the same table as the empress.

However, Shen Chuliu only said that they were all children and there was no need to worry too much before they were ten years old.

What if someone in the harem dared to arrange for her because of two such big children? She dared to strangle that shameless person to death.

After lunch, the Sixth Prince was not in a hurry to leave, so he sat with Shen Chuliu and had snacks.

"Mom, my second brother has been out of the palace recently. He said he has a new friend." The sixth prince ate grapes and said, "My name is Yu Zhi. Feiyang said that he is Yu Chan's son."

He Feiyang was called and stood up hurriedly: "To tell you the truth, Yu Zhi is the eldest son of Master Yu Chan."

Shen Chuliu was surprised: "Yu Chan?"

"Back to your Majesty, it is Master Yu Chan who is the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Palace." He Feiyang said.

"Well, he said this?" Shen Chuliu asked again.

He Feiyang said hurriedly: "Hui Niangniang, His Highness did not say it. His eunuch leaked it and asked me to remember it."

"Well, okay, you three remember, pretend you don't know about this in the future. Don't tell others, and don't tell your family when you go back. Can you do it?" Shen Chuliu asked.
