The little follower, Miss Qingxi, followed the imperial concubine back to Jianjia Palace. Everyone in the palace was watching the empress's jokes, waiting for her to attack Shen Yuqing.
However, the queen empress was suddenly caught up in the marriage of Prince Qingping, and she had "no time" to trouble Concubine Shen.
Prince Qingping has a marriage contract with Shen Yuxun, the daughter of the second wife of the Shen family. It was originally agreed to get married at the end of the year, but unexpectedly there will be no suitable auspicious days at the end of the year.
It's not that there are no auspicious days at the end of the year, it's just that the Qin Tianjian said that these auspicious days are not suitable for the two couples and they are not suitable for marriage. So the marriage was postponed until the first month, on the eve of the Lantern Festival.
Coincidentally, it is two days before the Lantern Festival, the thirteenth day of the first lunar month. It was a coincidence that Shen Yuxun returned home during the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
It was a surprise for Shen Yuxun that Yuanxiao could go back to her mother's house. And being able to spend another year of New Year's Eve at home, Shen Yuxun also felt very satisfied. Therefore, I don't have any objections to delaying the marriage. On the contrary, the son is a little anxious, wishing that the little wife would come in immediately.
As I said at the beginning, the son had fallen in love with Shen Yuxun at first sight since the Mid-Autumn Palace banquet that year, and eagerly came to propose marriage. I thought I would be able to marry someone back before the Mid-Autumn Festival of the next year, but I didn't expect it to be delayed for another four months until the Lantern Festival of the next year.
From the very beginning, the prince didn't think about food and drink, which made the concubine and empress angry and funny. Now it's even more lovesick. If the princess hadn't tried her best to make the two lovers meet every half a month, her son would have made himself so shameful.
Ordinary people, if they saw their son being bewitched like this by a woman, they would probably hate that vixen to death, but the princess is different.
When she was young, King Qingping was also so infatuated. Now that she has been married for decades, the still handsome and handsome middle-aged uncle Qingping Wang is still in love, playing romance at every turn. The princess has been pampered for so many years. Although she looks dignified and elegant on the surface, she still has a lot of girlish feelings behind her back.
Her son was as infatuated as her husband, which made her feel very good. She likes to see the beautiful love continue to be beautiful, and it is best for her son and daughter-in-law to be affectionate.
Therefore, the concubine concubine came to the queen mother, trying to make her daughter-in-law more beautiful when she came in as much as possible, so that everyone would envy the woman who married into their Qingping royal family. The empress dowager had a good impression of the couple, and since the bride was Shen Yuqing's "cousin", she planned to let Concubine Shen be the host.
However, the imperial concubine was busy taking care of the children, and the children around the empress happened to be pestering Concubine Shen, so she asked to take over this matter, so that her daughter-in-law could relax. By the way, if you do something for your daughter-in-law, you can't let Yuqing pay for it every time, and she will sit back and enjoy it.
Seeing that Shen Yuqing was still very close to this cousin, she naturally wanted to treat Shen Yuxun better.
"The Qingping Wang family seems to be prone to infatuation seeds." Dong Xiao gave the empress a popular science about the Qingping Wang family's love history, envious, "Second Miss Shen is really happy."
Thinking of what Princess Qingping said before entering the palace, the empress couldn't help laughing: "Which noble lady in this capital doesn't want to marry into the Qingping royal family? It's a pity they don't know that the children of the Qingping royal family looked silly when they were young, but they have always been able to Avoid those with bad intentions, and only focus on good girls."
Those who have tried their best to marry them have never succeeded.
This family is a bit of a fool with a sense of foolish luck. Since the founding of the country, it has been blessed with good luck, and the house has never been in trouble. The emperors of all dynasties have never touched them. One is that although King Qingping is a hereditary king, he is an idle king and does not interfere in court affairs; the other is this inexplicable good luck, coupled with a pure heart, which makes the emperors love them very much. I am also willing to keep Qingping Wang's family as the mascots in the capital.
Every time Qingping Wang's family participated in activities, even if something happened, it was not serious. However, the large-scale events missed by Qingping Wang's family always have accidents. At the beginning, some people suspected that their family was behind the scenes, but this family was so easy to investigate. No emperor had ever found out the problem. In the end, it could only be attributed to their family being Europeans.
Such a lucky star, the emperor is naturally willing to take them with him.
This time the empress presided over the wedding, so naturally she had to be there in person. Concubine Shen Gui also planned to go and have a look, in this way, it would be difficult for the emperor to pass by, otherwise there would be too many bosses coming.
It was rare to be able to go out "alone" with Shen Yuqing, and the Empress was looking forward to it. Although he had to go back to the palace after presiding over the wedding in the past, and he couldn't actually go shopping, Fu Qiushui was still very happy.
They sneaked out of the palace during the Lantern Festival last year. This year, they don't know what arrangements Shen Yuqing has and whether they will leave the palace again.
Jian Jia Palace.
Concubine Shen Gui had just finished dealing with a series of questions from her daughter. Children of this age are always flooded with hundreds of thousands of questions. The concubine was so troubled by her questions that she had no choice but to pack up her daughter and throw her away to take care of her son.
The son is also a little devil, sticking to people's bags. Concubine Shen Gui just stepped out of the room and confirmed that she was really light-footed and didn't make a single movement, just like that, her precious son suddenly burst into tears.
Concubine Shen: "..."
You little bastard has the ability, don't just let thunder but not rain!
The imperial concubine walked back resignedly, and picked up her son. Then she finds herself dealing not only with the sticky bag, but also with her daughter who has relapsed into a hundred thousand problems.
There is nothing to love.
"Mother, why is my brother so young?"
"Mother and concubine, will my younger brother grow up to be as tall as my father?"
"Concubine Mu, when will you give Qingxi a younger sister?"
"Mother Concubine..."
Shen Guifei couldn't bear it anymore: "Let your father die!"
half an hour later—
Miss Qingxi was sitting on a high chair in the small study of Zichen Palace, staring at her father with her short legs dangling: "My father, why is my brother so young?"
"Because he hasn't grown up yet, he will be the same age as Qingxi now in six years." His Majesty the Emperor wanted to be a good father, so he tried his best to be patient and gently answered his daughter's questions.
"Then, will my younger brother be taller, more handsome, and more likable than my father when he grows up?"
"...Maybe." Come on, that little bastard, don't even think about being taller, handsomer and more likable than me!
"Mother and Concubine said to ask Father to give birth to a younger sister for Qingxi, Father, will you have a baby? I have a big belly like Mother and Concubine, and then ugh..."
Princess Qingxi's mouth was covered.
His Majesty the Emperor's veins were throbbing, and he almost forgot that his daughter was essentially a little devil, not a little angel at all.
He took a deep breath: "Don't talk nonsense, how could the father give birth to a child? Only your mother and concubine will give birth."
"Hmph, Father is a liar!" Qing Xi broke away from Father, slid down from the chair, and ran out of the small study, "My mother and concubine said that Father would give birth, and Father is dishonest! "
Then, the little devil disappeared without a trace.
His Majesty the Emperor: "..."
Hold back, hold back, this is his own daughter, and she cannot be strangled to death.
The daughter is innocent, and she was taught badly by her mother and concubine. It's a pity that he couldn't beat that woman, so he had to endure it.
Princess Qingxi, who was disgusted by two people, ran up the palace road, with a group of court ladies and eunuchs trailing far behind her. The princess would not let them get too close, but they were afraid that she would fall down.
"Crack." The little princess kicked a pebble away and happily ran into the imperial garden.
She wasn't worried that mother concubine and father would be angry with her, they loved Qingxi so much.
Qingxi stood at the gate of the imperial garden and thought for a while, then decided to go play with Grandma Huang. Grandma Huang never thought of her as a bear, and would let her make her favorite sweets. The queen mother refused, saying that she would develop decayed teeth, so she was not allowed to eat too much.
"Let's go!" Qingxi greeted the hiding palace people behind, "Go to Shoukang Palace!"
The palace people quickly breathed a sigh of relief, Shoukang Palace is good, Shoukang Palace is the best. I heard that the empress dowager is kind and loves the little princess, she will not run away in anger (His Majesty the emperor doesn't want to talk), nor will she send the princess away (the imperial concubine doesn't want to talk either). Staying in Shoukang Palace, the princess may be able to rest for a long time.
So these innocent palace people immediately surrounded the little princess and went to Shoukang Palace. As newcomers who had just been replaced by Her Highness, they really didn't know Her Highness very well.
Then, they watched helplessly as Her Royal Highness began to dominate the Shoukang Palace.
The Empress Dowager stood not far away with a smile, watching her little granddaughter command people to climb up the tree in her yard to pick plum blossoms, and smashed the ice in her lake to make ice sculptures. Jumping up and down, tossing and tossing, destroying many precious flowers and trees, and finally stretching her devil's claws into her palace, destroying many good things.
The palace people who followed the princess had shrunk into quails, for fear that the Empress Dowager would settle accounts with them.
The queen mother loves the princess so much, she will definitely not be angry with the princess. But those who didn't teach the princess well, and could even be said to "bring bad" the princess, were going to be unlucky.
When the previous group of palace people left, they didn't tell them that the princess was such a bear! unacceptable! He deliberately didn't tell them this, let them take it lightly, and finally caused a catastrophe! Had they known this, they must have tried their best to lure the princess to another place!
It's a pity that Qingxi's original group of palace people had already left the palace ahead of time, and His Majesty the Emperor had tossed out a gorgeous and beautiful princess mansion for his eldest princess early. The place is big, and artisans were specially hired to renovate it. It is necessary to make the princess mansion full of carved beams and painted buildings, beautiful scenery and strange stones.
Of course, Princess Qingxi won't live in it right now, at least she will have to wait ten years, when the princess is old enough, His Majesty the Emperor is willing to let her daughter go out of the palace to live. However, this does not prevent him from preparing the princess mansion for his daughter in advance, and sending those palace people to take care of the princess mansion.
These palace servants were originally brought in temporarily to serve Her Highness the Princess, and their quality was inferior to those carefully trained. Fortunately, they have been with the princess for a while, and have learned about Qingxi's preferences. Now that they are thrown into the princess mansion, they can just instruct those craftsmen to renovate the princess mansion.
The renovation of the mansion this time was funded from His Majesty's private treasury, so even if the money was spent like water, the courtiers could not accuse His Majesty of wasting money and people without conscience. Even the Empress Empress, Imperial Concubine Empress and Empress Dowager have paid a lot of money, and it never went to the treasury at all.
The other concubines were still debating whether to bleed heavily, but the money that Wei Jieyu sent over was confiscated by the emperor, and she was asked to keep it for herself. The other concubines also rested their minds and felt lucky.
Even though the courtiers complained about the emperor's doting on the eldest princess, they didn't talk too much about her daughter, so it seemed that they were really free and had to take care of everything. So the matter went on like this with everyone's acquiescence, no matter how dissatisfied the courtiers were and how jealous the concubine was, they couldn't stop it.
Qingxi heard that she was about to have a wonderful princess mansion, although she was looking forward to it, but before seeing the real thing, she was more concerned about the ready-made fun things in the palace. For example, today's Shoukang Palace is very interesting.
The Empress Dowager waved at Qingxi who was tired from playing, and knelt down to wipe her sweat herself: "Tired from playing?"
Qingxi's eyes sparkled: "En!"
"Are you happy?" The empress dowager led her to sit down, and asked someone to make tea for the princess to enjoy.
"Happy!" Qingxi really liked Grandma Huang.
The empress dowager was also very happy, and greeted the little princess with snacks and milk tea, and kept her for lunch and dinner, and finally slept with her little granddaughter in her arms. The next day was approaching noon, and she reluctantly asked Madam Fu to send the little princess back to Jianjia Palace.
And the palace people who waited tremblingly and scolding all night didn't wake up like a dream until they left Shoukang Palace. They couldn't believe it when they found that the Empress Dowager didn't blame her.
"The empress dowager...is she too good-tempered?" They looked at each other and thought to themselves.
"Wait." Another nun next to the queen mother suddenly stopped them.
The palace people trembled suddenly, and slowly turned their heads to look at the past, clamoring in their hearts that it was over.
But to their surprise, Mammy didn't intend to torment them, but handed over two things. One is a food box, and the other is a folded list.
"This is the dessert that the princess loves to eat. Remember to send it to Jianjia Palace quickly so that the princess can eat it while it's hot."
The imperial concubine especially listened to what the empress said, saying that if she didn't let her daughter eat those, she wouldn't give her daughter more food. Although she also loves her daughter very much, and would occasionally give her daughter a small treatment in secret before, but since she was caught by the empress once, she has been cowardly, and she dare not do anything wrong.
But she changed the way and asked the empress dowager to deliver the snacks. In this way, she can use the excuse that "the elders don't dare to resign, since it was given by the queen mother, so naturally they can only keep it, and Qingxi must also eat it", so that Qingxi can satisfy her cravings.
So the Empress Dowager would send food to Jianjia Palace every now and then, either by coincidence that Qingxi was in Jianjia Palace, or she asked Concubine Shen to send it to Fengyi Palace for her daughter. The imperial concubine is also very happy, especially the latter, she can use this excuse to go to see her daughter-in-law.
The palace people don't know the twists and turns, but it doesn't prevent them from being cautious. The leading eunuch quickly picked it up, pleaded guilty, and ran away immediately to deliver snacks to Her Royal Highness.
The others glanced enviously at this smart man who took the opportunity to leave the Longtan Tiger's Den. They wanted to go too, but unfortunately they didn't react fast enough.
Mammy then took out the list, and said slowly: "It's written down the things Her Royal Highness broke, you should remember to send it to Zichen Palace, and let Your Majesty make up for it."
The palace people nodded blankly, took it, and watched the nanny go back to Shoukang Palace, and the figure disappeared from sight. Then, they suddenly came back to their senses.
-wait wait wait? ! Let His Majesty make it up? ? ? It's not what they think it means! ! !
No wonder the Empress Dowager didn't blame her, she directly asked people to write down the amount lost by Her Royal Highness, and asked her son to pay for it!
Oh my god, the empress dowager is too stingy, how can there be such a _(:з」∠)_ who cheats on her son.
When Miss Jinli took the order from a cowering maid, she looked very calm. Not only that, but he also took a sympathetic look at the court lady, and asked softly, "How did they force you to come here to deliver things? Did you lose a bet or a fight?"
Although this group of palace people was experiencing it for the first time, Jinli has long been used to it.
The same is true of the previous batch of palace people. Every time they encounter a task of sending orders, they will solve it internally. Regardless of betting or fighting, in any case, a loser is finally introduced to send the order to meet the "anger" of His Majesty the Emperor.
But His Majesty the Emperor didn't get angry every time, only when he was in a bad mood and very irritable, he would scold the palace servant. But it is only a training, and will not be punished. In the end, he will pay for the debt owed by his daughter for causing trouble.
However, His Majesty the Emperor is majestic and cruel, and being scolded is also very scary, so no one will consciously take the initiative to be scolded.
Jin Li looked at the little maid who said the word "fight" with tears in her eyes, patted her on the shoulder to comfort her, and told her in the tone of someone who has experienced it: "Don't be afraid, you will get used to it in the future."
The previous group were also so frightened at the beginning, but they calmed down after more times. The only thing that can make their ass hurt is being scolded by His Majesty, other than that, they are all indifferent, calm and cold, unmoved, and not showing any signs of expression. It seemed that they were not witnessing Her Royal Highness getting into trouble, nor did they see Her Royal Highness teasing cats and dogs.
Moreover, the princess is not just tossing around in Shoukang Palace, they will also be responsible for handing over the bills from Jianjia Palace, Fengyi Palace and other places... Anyway, since the Queen Mother did this, they used to bear it silently The ladies in the room immediately chose to seek reimbursement from His Majesty the Emperor.
The little maid didn't know this, she just felt very desperate now, tremblingly followed Jinli into the small study, facing His Majesty the Emperor who was dozing off reading miscellaneous books.
His Majesty the Emperor raised his head and glanced at the maid, feeling unfamiliar.
"Your Majesty, this is the person serving by Her Highness the Princess." Jin Li saluted and said.
His Majesty the Emperor paused, and suddenly felt a headache.
Hearing that they are people next to Her Royal Highness, what else can they come here for? It could only be for his private treasury.
It's too much, you can't cheat him just because he has a lot of money.
His Majesty the Emperor rubbed his temples and waved his hands weakly: "Go and deal with it."
Miss Jinli wasn't surprised at all, and went down with the bewildered little maid. He still didn't forget to say to the little maid: "You are lucky today, Your Majesty did not blame you, come with me."
As he said that, he brought the little maid to the private treasury, asked her to wait outside, and brought someone in to get things by himself. She had to find out what the empress dowager wanted according to the list, and then send it over.
The empress dowager didn't write down all the things that were tossed and broken in a realistic way, but changed the post and added what she wanted. The point is, the total value is definitely more than what is actually broken.
In short, this so-called bill is the process of filling one's own private treasury in the name of reimbursement. One of the people who did this was his mother, one was his sister, and the other was his sister-in-law. Either he couldn't fight, or he couldn't fight, so he could only accept it silently, who made him have more money.
Princess Qingxi didn't know this, she happily ran back to find her concubine right now.
"Mother, mother, I haven't seen Shen Xiaopang for a long time, when can I go and play with him?"
Concubine Shen Gui put her son into her daughter's arms: "After coaxing your brother, Concubine Mother will let Shen Liyi enter the palace to play with you for two days."
Qingxi cheered, and happily hugged her younger brother to play on the big soft bed.
Maybe it's because he spent a few days with Qingxi and got used to this young lady who dotes on him. Qiuqiu is finally no longer just clinging to the imperial concubine, and he can accept being clinging to his sister when Qingxi is around.
So Concubine Shen Gui could finally breathe a sigh of relief and do some of her own business by the side.
As long as she doesn't leave this room, Qiuqiu can play with Qingxi until she falls asleep with peace of mind.
But it's hard for Qingxi to be patient and play with Qiuqiu. In Concubine Shen's opinion, such a small child is not very interesting, anyway, she will feel bored and want to sleep after a while.
Qingxi had a great time playing, even though she and Qiuqiu couldn't understand the language, she still introduced various things to her brother in a rambling manner. He also held a small picture album drawn by the imperial concubine in a decent way, and taught Qiuqiu to recognize things and characters.
Concubine Shen Gui sat in front of the table, dipped in ink and various colored paints, and began to draw other small albums for her son. She found that Qiuqiu likes to read this kind of small picture book, and is much more interested in looking at the real thing. I just have nothing to do, so I will draw more picture books for my son and let him use this to recognize things.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but rejoice. Fortunately, she took (stealed) Qinniang’s friend’s copybook to study out of curiosity, and then was caught by Qinniang. Guan Xiaoheiwu forced her to learn Chinese characters and paintings, otherwise she would not be so "so" now. Good" painting skills.
She doesn't know ink and wash artistic conception painting, but she likes realistic painting very much, and she is able to impress people with practice. Although Qin Niang has been venomous for N years because of this, it is best if her son likes her.
Besides, didn't she also learn to be sarcastic from Qinniang... Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to deal with the verbal swords in the palace. Now that I think about it, these women's tongue skills are not as good as Qinniang's.
Qin Niang Mo Wanmo Zhaxin's name is not for nothing.
In short, she still made money in closing the small black room, ahem.
