As soon as I got back and was changing my clothes, I saw Yuan Xiao coming in and saying, "Master, here are the concubines and concubines."
Shen Chuliu paused: "What happened?"
"Master, I haven't said anything yet. I guess you're here to sit down," the slave said. What Yuanxiao was thinking about was what Mei Xiuyi said before...
Maybe, this is something to talk about with the Concubine
"Since that's the case, I'm not feeling well, so there's no need." Shen Chuliu waved his hand.
Yuan Xiao also guessed that she didn't want to see him, so he agreed and went out.
Having said this politely, Concubine He did not bother her: "Since my sister is not feeling well, you must have a good rest. I will go back first. We will talk about it another day."
The Yuanxiao people also sent people out politely. Not the slightest bit disrespectful.
In the room, Shen Chuliu was eating strawberries comfortably.
"Master, what do you think she wants to say? Even the slaves feel strange and powerful." Zhemei said.
The eldest girl here is Zhe Mei, but Zhe Mei and Su are not familiar with each other either.
Shen Chuliu thought that since the year Qi Yan was born, she had drifted away from the Su family.
"I don't know. I haven't been able to see through her since I was young, and I still can't see through her today." Shen Chuliu shook his head.
"Then it's better not to see her, just in case she has bad intentions." Zhemei said.
Shen Chuliu smiled and did not answer.
The concubine was not in a hurry to go back and strolled to the imperial garden.
She sat there, as if she was thinking of nothing.
In fact, there are indeed some racing thoughts.
The Fuxiang Chenxiang who served her was not the original person, and it was not clear what the dispute was between her and Shen Chuliu.
So I could only stand by.
When they reach their status, sometimes one thing they do can attract attention.
For example, the concubine who had not been to Yufu Palace for ten thousand years went to Yufu Palace and was turned away.
Although Concubine He and Concubine Jing had a brief friendship many years ago, they don't remember much of it.
Nowadays, there are many rumors in the palace that I dare not say openly, but there are still undercurrents underneath.
Others even avoided suspicion, but He Concubine just left like this, which really made people think more.
As for Concubine He, Shen Chuliu said he couldn't see through her. In fact, Shen Chuliu was not the only one in the palace who couldn't see through her.
In Linhua Palace, Concubine Li De frowned as she listened to this matter and didn't speak for a long time.
"Master?" Bi Tao looked at her worriedly.
"This harem is really a place of right and wrong." Concubine Li De sighed and waved her hands: "It's nothing."
Bitao had no choice but to remain silent.
This incident passed as if it had never happened.
The weather was getting warmer, but it also rained more. The emperor was busy with farm reform in the north and had no time to enter the harem.
Although Qi Yan has not yet gone to court, he learns from the emperor every afternoon.
Instead, he became familiar with the ministers.
The prince also didn't hold his head straight, and often forgot to identify himself.
He is also very peaceful and studious in conversation.
He also treated veterans with courtesy, but not excessively. On the contrary, the veterans were very pleased.
Frankly speaking, I have a successor to the Great Yi Dynasty.
Just like that, His Royal Highness threw all the brothers away for an unknown distance.
But he also had to keep his brothers busy. For example, the fourth and fifth princes were ordered by him to build houses.
Unknowingly, the fourth and fifth princes became the prince's followers, and it was okay not to follow them. The main reason was that the prince was responsible for building the house.
But the prince is busy in Tai Chi Palace and can't take care of supervising the construction personally. So what should we do
The fourth and fifth princes will supervise the construction and report the progress to the prince later.
He comes and goes, and it’s not enough if he doesn’t follow me.
Invisibly, it seemed like the three brothers were united together. The emperor was very satisfied, so when he met Shen Chuliu, he said: "Yan'er has many evil ideas, it's up to you."
Shen Chuliu was unconvinced: "My son is not mine alone!"
The emperor laughed and said, "I don't have so many ideas."
He refused to elaborate, but he was sure that Qi Yan followed Shen Chuliu even more, even though his face was very similar to his own.
Seeing him like this, he actually pulled the fourth prince, his most competitive opponent in the past, directly into his camp.
No matter what, the fourth prince is now following the prince, and he is no longer the person he used to be who can compete with the sixth prince for the prince's position.
And it's not like Qi Yan will stop interacting with his brothers just because he became the prince.
But now, the prince has not officially entered the court yet, so he directly uses it to train people!
He was laughing and joking, leaving this matter to his two brothers.
Brothers also have to think about it. The prince can use them now, but what about when the prince becomes the emperor in the future
After going back and forth, there is less guard against each other.
Isn’t this the same kind of coaxing
It's just that what Yan'er did was more like a joke.
It doesn't matter, the effect will be the same.
What's more, the princes are going to live out their homes after building their mansions, so who doesn't need money
Qi Yixiu turned a blind eye to the princes accepting gifts and so on.
The fourth and fifth princes took over the job of building a house, so the filial piety of the people below them was naturally indispensable.
It also filled my pocket.
And because his brothers helped with the work, the prince could still deliver things openly and say thank you for sharing.
It can be considered a very high level of bribery.
So Qi Yixiu was really satisfied.
He definitely couldn't have a prince and then ignore the other princes.
That's fine.
Of course, some princes are good and some are bad.
The death of Zhen Chongyi really changed the Ninth Prince completely.
This is normal. His biological mother was sent to death by his father. As a son, he really didn't expect that his mother did something wrong first.
It's easy to say, but as a person involved, all you can remember is hatred.
On this point, Shen Chuliu had already told Qi Yan to be careful.
It's just that the Ninth Prince is still young after all, and there are many people following him. It's not that easy to do anything.
It's just that this year, the Ninth Prince has become more and more gloomy, and from time to time he beats his slaves for trivial matters.
The slaves in Ruiqing Palace were all afraid of him.
Even a weak young prince like the Tenth Prince is afraid of him.
Speaking of which, the tenth prince was also miserable.
Everyone else has someone to rely on. Even the eighth prince is now the queen's son, so he is naturally more valued. Even before, he was protected by his sixth brother.
The eleventh prince is the son of Concubine Li De, and he has a brother above him, so he will not be wronged.
The twelfth prince has Concubine Ning.
Anyway, after all is said and done, the tenth prince is the only one who is pitiful.
Qian Jieyu fell silent and never got up again.
Of course, since she was demoted, the emperor stopped paying attention to her.
Therefore, after the Ninth Prince became gloomy, he was very unfriendly to the Tenth Prince. The key is that these two people live close to each other.
The tenth prince was really worried.
The poor little tenth prince had some short-lived ambitions because of Qian Jieyu when he was young, but since he stopped, he knew that life was difficult.
He had previously heard that Sixth Brother was the crown prince, and he cheered inwardly.
At least Sixth Brother doesn't bully others.
If it were Brother Ninth, he would really have to find a way to live in a fiefdom.
