Concubine Chen stayed in Uncle Yongning's mansion. Although she controlled Shen Jin's food, she often cooked some food for Shen Jin herself. Shen Jin naturally knew that both mother and mother Zhao were thinking of her, He is very cute, even if it is something he doesn't like to use, he will eat it.
At the beginning, Concubine Chen was still a little worried that Chu Xiuming and Shen Jin slept together every day, but she knew that neither of them was a child who didn't know how to play around, so she didn't say anything. What's more, even though Chu Xiuming didn't like to talk, but he didn't care about his daughter. If you are considerate, your heart will be at ease.
Not only that, Concubine Chen also carefully observed the people in the mansion, especially Anping and An Ning. Seeing that the two of them not only took care of Shen Jin carefully, but also had no other thoughts, she was completely relieved. She stayed in Yongning Bo's mansion for three days. I was ready to say goodbye.
Shen Jin was naturally full of reluctance, but it wasn't that she didn't know what to do. Concubine Chen hugged her into her arms like a child, but she didn't say anything, but let her sit in front of the dressing table, and personally combed her clothes with a comb. The hair on his head was quickly pulled into a beautiful bun, and he chose a butterfly hairpin in the jewelry box...
Seeing the more beautiful daughter, Concubine Chen only felt full of joy, because knowing that Concubine Chen was about to leave, Shen Jin became more and more delicate, and leaned beside Concubine Chen. Talking affectionately, Concubine Chen finally said that she wanted to leave, but Chu Xiuming said, "Mother-in-law might as well stay for another two days."
Concubine Chen said, "I'm afraid there is something else going on in the mansion, only the concubine supports it, so I'm a little tired after all."
Chu Xiuming said, "Mother-in-law, please stay for two more days."
Shen Jin moved her lips and looked at Chu Xiuming, feeling a little uneasy in her heart. Concubine Chen frowned slightly, looked at Chu Xiuming and nodded and said, "That's fine, I'll just bother you for a few more days." She stretched out her hand and shook Shen Jin gently. Jin's, "Miss Jin wanted to use sour bamboo shoots and chicken skin soup yesterday, I'll go to the kitchen and have a look."
"Trouble mother-in-law." Chu Xiuming said.
Concubine Chen smiled and went out. Chu Xiuming held Shen Jin's hand and said, "How about I go out with you?"
Shen Jin nodded, stood up following Chu Xiuming's strength, and the two walked slowly into the garden. In front of Chu Xiuming, Shen Jin couldn't hide the matter on his face, and at this moment showed a little anxiety, Chu Xiuming said, "I'm afraid I'm going to go out in a few days."
"Will he come back safely?" Shen Jin didn't ask where he was going, why he didn't stay by her side, just wanted to know if he would come back safely.
Chu Xiuming gently hugged Shen Jin, let her sit on his arm, and said, "Yes."
Shen Jin responded, and said with a bright smile on his face, "Then I'll wait for you."
"En." Chu Xiuming didn't explain anything, but said, "I will send you back to Prince Rui's Mansion after the imperial court's order comes down in two days."
"Okay." Shen Jin's eyes were red, but she didn't shed tears, she just said coquettishly, "Do you know if you want to come back early to pick me up?"
Chu Xiuming complied, but he didn't carry Shen Jin back immediately, but walked slowly in the garden with her in his arms.
When he went back, Shen Jin had already returned to his smiling face. If Chu Xiuming hadn't discovered that Shen Jin was crying secretly in his sleep at night, he would have been concealed from it, but Chu Xiuming didn't say anything, just reached out and stroked Shen Jin gently. Shen Jin's body trembled on Jin's back, then turned over and did not hide anymore, looking at Chu Xiuming with red eyes, Chu Xiuming simply got up and sat on the bed, Shen Jin moved into his arms, Putting his arms around his waist, leaning his cheek against Chu Xiuming's chest, he began to cry softly.
Shen Jin cried almost silently, but the tears kept falling. In fact, I don't blame Shen Jinhui for being like this, but I understand that Chu Xiuming's trip may be dangerous. After pregnancy, it is easy to think wildly, which is why I cried like this.
Chu Xiuming put his arms around Shen Jin, and kept reassuring in her ear, "I will definitely return safely."
In Chu Xiuming's voice, I don't know whether it was tired from crying or relieved, Shen Jin gradually fell asleep, Chu Xiuming looked at Shen Jin's sleeping state, there was some emotion in his heart, there was reluctance, and there were many distressed.
This time Shen Jin got up very late, she woke up with a start. When she woke up, she saw Concubine Chen and Nanny Zhao sitting in the room sewing, so she sat up as if she was looking for something. Concubine Chen and Nanny Zhao Mammy noticed it, looked at each other with a smile, Mammy Zhao got up and went to the kitchen outside to get something, while Concubine Chen walked to the bed, looked at her daughter, and sighed slightly in her heart, "Are you awake?"
Shen Jin looked a little aggrieved, she pursed her lips and hugged Concubine Chen's waist without saying a word.
Concubine Chen was amused by Shen Jin, "Why are you still like a child, and your son-in-law is in the study."
Only then did Shen Jin breathe a sigh of relief, "En."
At this moment, Concubine Chen didn't know whether it was good or bad for her daughter and son-in-law to have such a deep relationship, but she said softly, "I called someone in, don't act like a baby."
"Okay." Shen Jin took a few deep breaths, and then let go of Concubine Chen. Although she didn't smile, her expression improved a lot. If she hadn't had to go, Shen Jin believed that Chu Xiuming would not just let her go. , blinked but found that there was no sour feeling after crying.
Concubine Chen went to the door and opened the door, and asked Anping and the others to bring in water, and waited for Shen Jin to change and freshen up. Zhao Nanny also brought over warm goat's milk. Because Shen Jin was pregnant, it was not easy to go inside. Put almonds to remove the fishy smell. Although the taste is not good, Shen Jin just doesn't reject it, and obediently took a bowl of it.
Chu Xiuming also knew that Shen Jin had woken up. When he came over, Shen Jin was just getting dressed. When he saw Chu Xiuming, Shen Jin complained coquettishly, "I thought my husband ran away secretly."
"No." Chu Xiuming greeted Concubine Chen, then walked over and held Shen Jin's hand, "Let's eat."
"Okay." With a smile on her face, Shen Jin looked at Concubine Chen and said, "Mom, let's go eat."
"I've already used it." Concubine Chen said with a smile, "Who wants to wait for you lazy bastard to wake up."
Shen Jin wrinkled his nose, laughed to himself again, and walked to the dining room with Chu Xiuming. The food was put out, and Shen Jin liked it. Although Shen Jin and Chu Xiuming came back yesterday, they didn't say anything, but they Both of them saw the reluctance in Shen Jin's eyes and the more clingy attitude than usual, and they had guesses in their hearts, so they got up early by coincidence, and prepared a lot of things that suit Shen Jin's appetite. better.
In the afternoon, when Chu Xiuming was taking a nap with Shen Jin, Emperor Cheng came to the palace to invite Chu Xiuming into the palace. Shen Jin didn't say anything, so he got up and asked someone to bring Chu Xiuming's official uniform, and then gave it to Chu Xiuming with his own hands. Putting it on, he wrapped it in a cloak and personally sent Chu Xiuming out of the hospital. Chu Xiuming touched Shen Jin's face and said, "When you wake up, let the little one come and play with you for a while, and I will be back soon."
"Okay." Shen Jin smiled with the corner of his mouth raised.
Chu Xiuming glanced at Zhao Nanny, Zhao Nanny nodded slightly, then Chu Xiuming turned and left, although he didn't look back, he knew that Shen Jin was still standing at the door.
When she couldn't see Chu Xiuming, Shen Jin blinked, and then said, "Nurse, let's go back."
Zhao Nanny said softly, "The general will be back later, Madam doesn't need to worry."
Shen Jin smiled and said, "I know, let someone pack up the general, I don't know where it is going... Prepare more medicinal materials..."
Zhao Nanny smiled and said, "Madam is still thoughtful."
Shen Jin didn't know that Zhao mama was coaxing herself, and when she returned to her room, she simply didn't sleep, so she changed her clothes and discussed with Zhao mama to pack up things. Concubine Chen also came over, and the three of them quickly lined up Finished the list, and added some more after checking carefully.
Zhao Nanny took the maid to pack it up, but Shen Jin took out the sachet that hadn't been made for a long time and made it again. Concubine Chen stayed by her side, occasionally pointing out a few words.
When Chu Xiuming arrived in the palace, he found that many ministers had already arrived, and Emperor Cheng's face was ugly. This time, he said, "Aiqing, quickly get down."
This Aiqing, Chu Xiuming's expression didn't change at all when he heard it, and the old officials didn't show it at all, but some young officials showed a little bit in their eyes, but they quickly restrained themselves.
Although Emperor Cheng said so, Chu Xiuming saluted respectfully, and Emperor Cheng said, "Ai Qing, I just got the news today, and the people in central Fujian..."
Prime Minister Chen lowered his eyes slightly, but didn't say anything. The news was known last night. Emperor Cheng immediately summoned him into the palace to discuss how to deal with it. They had discussed the matter of pirates some time ago, but they summoned him because of an accident in the Yongle Hou Mansion. The imperial doctor, after Emperor Cheng knew about it, he said it in public to ridicule Chu Xiuming’s house, but the matter of the pirates was interrupted, and Emperor Cheng didn’t take the pirates seriously, so he didn’t mention it again. Who would have thought Those pirates are so rampant.
What angered Emperor Cheng the most was that the people over there actually colluded with pirates, ransacked the county seat overnight, and even killed the county magistrate's family, and then reported it, and the officials in Central Fujian were all Emperor Cheng himself. Those who accept their fate are all their cronies.
The reason why Emperor Cheng called Prime Minister Chen was not only because he wanted to suppress the pirates, but also to take the opportunity to take revenge on Chu Xiuming. After all, Emperor Cheng didn't take those pirates seriously, he just thought it was the officials over there. I was overlooked for a while, after all, in the past two years, many pirates were killed there, and last year, Emperor Cheng gave a special reward.
This time, they were all the people there. They didn't know that the emperor was so cruel. They discussed with Prime Minister Chen last night and decided on a plan. They called Chu Xiuming over today.
Emperor Cheng finished the matter, then looked at Chu Xiuming and said, "Bo Yongning has made great achievements in battle, but he is just some pirates, and he can be easily caught if he wants to."
Even if Chu Xiuming wanted to be calm, listening to Emperor Cheng's words at this time, his heart was full of anger, and he lowered his head but said nothing.
Emperor Cheng praised Chu Xiuming first, and then said, "Uncle Yongning is willing to fight the bandits for me?"
Before Chu Xiuming opened his mouth, he saw the Minister of the Ministry of Households coming out and crying, "Your Majesty, the treasury is empty. A few days ago, after the relief of the border towns, the supplies sent to the border towns were all done with effort, but now they really can't hold much. gone."
After Hubu Shangshu finished speaking, Emperor Cheng also looked embarrassed, but his heart was full of excitement. He pretended to be worried and asked, "Is it really gone?"
Hubu Shangshu knelt down and said, "This year, we have collected..."
Listening to the words of Minister of the Household Department, all the ministers had their own thoughts in their hearts, and what they said was so accurate. It seemed that they had prepared in advance. Even if they questioned it now, it was useless. ?”
"Except for those sent to Sichuan for disaster relief, there are not many." The Minister of the Ministry of Households reported a number.
Chu Xiuming's complexion remained unchanged, and many people had already looked ugly. The Minister of War directly came out and accused, "Could it be possible that all the soldiers go to war hungry?"
The three armies go first before using food and grass, how important is the luggage, each peasant can carry six buckets of rice, and the soldiers can carry five days of dry food, which can last for eighteen days at a time. For thousands of miles, even if you can travel by water along the way, according to the Hubu Shangshu, there is still less than 10,000 soldiers' baggage from the capital to central Fujian. Although you can collect food along the way, it will also hinder Chu Xiuming's reputation.
Another courtier said, "It's just pirates. There are also the prefect's commander in Central Fujian and others. I don't think there is any need to send Yongning Bo there."
"That's right." Someone also stood up and said in a respectful voice, "If people are sent from the capital to quell the pirates, it seems that the imperial court pays too much attention to those pirates, so there will be no suspicion of making a fuss and the treasury is too empty to consume."
Chen Chengxiang said, "The old minister thinks that His Majesty should send Yongning Bo to go there, but there is no need to bring many soldiers from central Beijing, just go there quickly, His Majesty can order Yongning Bo to lead the soldiers from Central Fujian to meet the enemy and attack the pirates. "
Emperor Cheng looked at the unmoving Chu Xiuming and said, "What do you think, Aiqing?"
Chu Xiuming said, "Your Majesty, what do you think the people in Central Fujian should do?"
"There is no pardon for killing." Emperor Cheng said without hesitation, "I treat the common people kindly, but they colluded with pirates and murdered officials of the court, which is equivalent to bandits."
Chu Xiuming asked again, "What if there are officials colluding with pirates?"
"Impossible." Emperor Cheng said angrily. He thought that Chu Xiuming asked such words to make him look bad on purpose, because he personally accepted the fate of the officials in Central Fujian, so it can be said that they are all his people. .
Chu Xiuming said calmly, "This minister should share His Majesty's worries and go to quell the bandits, but please give your Majesty an order that you can do things cheaply in central Fujian. No matter whether it is an official or a commoner, anyone who colludes with the pirates will be killed without mercy."
Emperor Cheng was overjoyed when he heard the words, so he asked in embarrassment, "How much food, grass and soldiers does Yongning Bo need?"
Chu Xiuming asked back, "How much does Your Majesty think is appropriate?"
As soon as these words came out, Emperor Cheng was in a dilemma, and said, "Why not take a hundred people from the capital with Uncle Yongning?"
"I obey the order." Chu Xiuming had no objection.
Emperor Cheng smiled and said, "Then I will make an order now, and I will agree to what Uncle Yongning asked for." But he added, "The officials killed must have real evidence. Uncle Yongning must not kill people indiscriminately."
Chu Xiuming didn't say anything else, and Emperor Cheng immediately asked someone to draft an order, but he winked at Prime Minister Chen and asked him to secretly send a letter to his cronies in central Fujian, saying that Yongning Bo would die at the hands of pirates.
Emperor Cheng was so pleased with himself that he purposely stayed in the Queen's Palace at night, but who knew that this satisfaction would only last until the morning of the next day.
In the early dynasty, Emperor Cheng had just announced the matter of Yongning Boping's banditry. Suddenly, a censor impeached Prime Minister Chen. The pleading paper written in blood is suing the relatives of Prime Minister Chen...
At this time, Chu Xiuming was personally sending Shen Jin and Concubine Chen back to Prince Rui's mansion, because she had sent someone to send a letter to Princess Rui in advance, so Princess Rui had asked someone to clean up the yard, and she also knew that Emperor Cheng sent Yongning Regarding the matter of Uncle going to central Fujian, he did not give much advice, but after dinner, Shen Xuan told Chu Xiuming the names and identities of a few people, "Mother asked me to tell you, these are all trustworthy people. "
Chu Xiuming is not a person who doesn't know what is good or bad. He actually made preparations after he knew about the Minzhong incident. He never thought that Princess Rui would tell him this. I don’t even know, even I only know one day before you.”
"I see." Chu Xiuming didn't say anything to thank him, "I think the prince should return to the mansion in a few days, so you don't need to worry too much."
Shen Xuan nodded, although he didn't know what his mother's plan was, but he still said, "Don't worry about the third sister, she is also my sister after all, she won't be bullied."
Chu Xiuming nodded and said with a smile, "Okay."
The two separated after a few words. Shen Xuan went to see Princess Rui, and explained Chu Xiuming's words and attitude in detail. Princess Rui nodded and said, "I see. When your father comes back, I will discuss it with him." , I will arrange a marriage for you."
"Mother?" Shen Xuan looked at Princess Rui suspiciously.
Princess Rui smiled but didn't say anything else. She already had several candidates in her mind, and she had to meet them before deciding on them.
Shen Jin is the wife of Uncle Yongning, and it is not appropriate to live in the Moyun Courtyard with Uncle Yongning, so Princess Rui specially asked someone to tidy up a courtyard. Jin would like to live here, or live in Mo Yun Courtyard.
Not only that, but also gave Chu Xiuming the ginseng that was treasured.
Emperor Cheng only gave Chu Xiuming three days, and no one wanted to disturb the two young couples.
In the court hall, Emperor Cheng's face was livid, and he looked at the people who stood up and asked for a strict investigation of Prime Minister Chen. If Emperor Cheng wanted to protect Prime Minister Chen, he would not be unable to do so. But in the end, Emperor Cheng cared most about himself, and finally let Chen The prime minister went to office, but he didn't go to jail, and he specially handed over the matter to another person who was personally selected to investigate.
Chen Chengxiang was uneasy, but there was no other way. He was able to achieve the position of prime minister, relying more on his achievements in Conglong and his daughter's status as queen.
The night before Chu Xiuming left, Shen Jin went to the piece of warm jade around his neck and hung it on Chu Xiuming's body, and then handed the finished sachet to Chu Xiuming. Neither of them said anything. Usually, they hugged each other and slept together. In the morning, the two of them had dinner together, and then Shen Jin sent Chu Xiuming away.
Princess Rui did not show up, but both Shen Xuan and Shen Xi came to send Chu Xiuming off in person. Chu Xiuming took two of the people brought from the border town, and left the rest to Shen Jin. Shen Jin only brought Zhao Mammy and the others came, most of the guards stayed in Yongningbo Mansion.
Shen Jin watched Chu Xiuming get on the horse with a smile, "You promised me."
"En." Chu Xiuming said, but didn't say anything more, neither did Shen Jin.
Shen Xuan then said, "Take care."
Chu Xiuming nodded, took another look at Shen Jin and rode away, followed by two guards. The soldiers sent by Emperor Cheng were waiting outside the city.
Shen Jin bit her lower lip before smiling, "Let's go back."
Shen Xuan said, "Big sister said that she will come back to stay for a while in two days."
Shen Xi also said, "At that time, if the third sister wants anything, just tell me, I will definitely buy it for the third sister."
Shen Jin smiled and said, "Okay."
Seeing that Shen Jin was not crying, Shen Xuan and Shen Xi breathed a sigh of relief, and thought highly of her a lot, but because they were both old, they didn't go into the backyard, and Nanny Zhao accompanied Shen Jin slowly. He walked slowly towards the courtyard where he lived, followed by Anping and Anning, but he didn't know what to say to make Madam happy.
Zhao Nanny said, "Ma'am, when is it appropriate to take the little one over?"
"I'll ask my concubine." Shen Jin said, after all, Prince Rui's Mansion is no better than Uncle Yongning's Mansion, and there are more people here, so it's not right if the little one scares people. If you really want to pick up the little one, at least you have to be in the courtyard It would be better to find a place for the little one to live in.
Zhao Nanny agreed, "I think the little one misses his wife too."
Shen Jin nodded and said, "I think so."
When she returned to the courtyard, she saw Concubine Chen was already waiting for her. When she saw her mother, Shen Jin, she smiled and said coquettishly, "Mother, I want to sleep with you tonight."
Concubine Chen lightly tapped Shen Jin's forehead, "They already have children, why are they still so delicate."
Shen Jin pursed her lips and smiled, but didn't say anything. Concubine Chen didn't blame her daughter, but after saying this, she looked at Zhao Momo and said, "Mammy please pack your things, I'll take Jin girl back to Mo Yunyuan first .”
Zhao Nanny agreed, and Concubine Chen left the big maid beside her, and then she took Shen Jin away, Anping stayed to help Zhao Nanny pack up, and An Ning followed Shen Jin to serve, because Shen Jin Pregnant, Concubine Chen walked slowly, holding her daughter's hand.
There were some changes in the Mo Yun Courtyard, many things were put away, and there were a lot of cushions. The smile on Shen Jin's face disappeared after entering the courtyard, and she hugged Concubine Chen from behind, her chin resting on Concubine Chen's shoulder Go up, follow Concubine Chen up and down.
"Okay." Concubine Chen said softly, "I can't carry you on my back."
"I'm walking by myself." Shen Jin whispered.
Concubine Chen patted Shen Jin's hand lightly, and Shen Jin reluctantly released Concubine Chen, and sat on the newly added chaise longue in the room. An Ning squatted down and took off Shen Jin's shoes and asked , "madam, can you rest for a while?"
"En." Shen Jin lay down on her side, Concubine Chen went to get a blanket to cover Shen Jin, and then sat beside her.
Shen Jin held Concubine Chen's hand, Concubine Chen sighed in her heart, and said softly, "Go to sleep for a while."
"En." Shen Jin closed her eyes and said, "I'll go to Concubine Mother in a while."
Concubine Chen agreed, thought for a while and sang softly the song she used to lull Shen Jin to sleep when she was a child. Seeing her daughter, Concubine Chen felt a little lost and sad. Even though she knew that her daughter was pregnant, she still felt that her daughter was still a child. The child, a premature and sensible child, but looking at Shen Jin's sad look because of Chu Xiuming's departure, he has to admit that his daughter has grown up and become a woman who understands love.
She is afraid that she will never know this kind of feeling in her whole life. If she hadn't entered the palace at the beginning, would she be sad and regret it because her husband went out? Concubine Chen's eyes flickered, she looked down at her daughter's side face, and she slowly smiled. She has no regrets. With a daughter like Jin girl, she will never regret it for the rest of her life.
Tears overflowed from the corners of Shen Jin's eyes, but he didn't open them, but he felt in his heart that he had already started to miss the separation just now.
Because Shen Jin and the others had just moved to Prince Rui's Mansion, many things hadn't been unpacked, and it was easy to pack them up. They quickly moved them into the Moyun Courtyard. After they were settled, Shen Jin also woke up and changed Wearing a light purple dress, she went to the main courtyard with Concubine Chen.
Princess Rui was trimming a pot of flowers with small scissors in the yard. When Concubine Chen and Shen Jin came in, Princess Rui asked Cuixi to move the things down, brought water to wash her hands, and then waved to Shen Jin and said with a smile, " Why didn't you take a break?"
Shen Jin sat beside Concubine Rui, smiled affectionately next to her, "I'm here to make a living with Concubine Mother, and I haven't eaten anything from the small kitchen in Concubine Mother's courtyard for a long time."
Princess Rui smiled and said, "Silly girl."
Shen Jin complained in a low voice, "My mother only allows me to use a few pieces of cakes every day, but she also asks people to make the cakes only the size of a fingernail."
Princess Rui laughed and said, "Why are you still acting like a child?"
"In front of my concubine, I have always been a child." Shen Jin said with a smile.
Cuixi brought the tea, the one for Concubine Chen was her usual tea, while the one for Shen Jin was soaked in slices of red dates, one could tell it was specially prepared for Shen Jin, not only that, but also a small plate of peeled tea Walnuts and fresh fruits, but there is no such thing as pastries.
Princess Rui said, "I heard from Xi'er that you have a big dog?"
"En." Shen Jin was going to mention something trivial, but Princess Rui never thought that she would bring it up first.
Princess Rui said, "Why didn't you pick it up? Xi'er made that dog so sensible, I still want to see it."
"I was just about to talk to my concubine." Shen Jin said with a smile, "I will keep it in the yard when the time comes, and I won't let it scare people away."
Princess Rui nodded, "Just don't scare Mrs. Li." Mrs. Li is pregnant now, so the others don't care.
Shen Jin wrote it down and said, "Mother, don't worry."
"Xi'er also begged me to intercede with you, and wanted to take your dog to go hunting with Qi'er's husband." Princess Rui said, "He is shy himself, so he is embarrassed to go directly to you .”
Shen Jin smiled and said, "My brother likes it, so I let my brother take the little one with me, and I also let the little one run away. I will let a guard follow me, so I won't let the little one hurt my brother."
Princess Rui didn't care about these things, "Then you go and talk to Xi'er yourself." She was planning to let Shen Xi follow Yongningbo, so she would naturally look for opportunities to make Shen Jin and Shen Xi closer.
Shen Jin complied, and Princess Rui asked Shen Jin some daily things again, and said, "Since it was Dr. Sun who showed it to you at the beginning, let him take your pulse every other day. Don't bear it, don't go out during this time, after three months, I will take you out for a walk."
"Okay." Shen Jin complied one by one. These are all for her own good, and she is not ignorant of good and evil.
Princess Rui said a few more words, and then chatted with Concubine Chen, "I didn't expect that such a small dumpling would become a mother today. It seems that in the blink of an eye, she has changed from being hugged by someone to being able to run and jump, and to be able to run and jump again in the blink of an eye. In the blink of an eye, she's married and ready to be a mother."
Concubine Chen also said, "It's just that the temper is still like a child's."
"That's fine." Princess Rui said with a smile, "My favorite thing is Miss Jin's transparency."
"If it wasn't for the princess and princess, girl Jin wouldn't be able to develop such a temper." Concubine Chen said gratefully.
Shen Jin asked, "By the way, concubine mother, is there any embarrassment for eldest sister?"
King Rui was knocked down from the clan's mansion, how could Mrs. Yonglehou's temperament not be a bit of a moth, and when King Rui was fine, she even brought in a relative from her natal family.
Although Princess Rui didn't have a smile on her face, she didn't look angry either. Instead, she said calmly, "Mrs. Yonglehou is not feeling well and is recuperating in the house."
Shen Jin's almond was full of surprise, he was a little puzzled, then nodded after thinking for a while, "Then I'll ask the girl to send some medicinal materials over."
"En." Princess Rui didn't mean to say much, and smiled, "When Qi'er comes tomorrow, you two sisters will talk about it."
"Okay." Shen Jin smiled, "I miss my big sister already."
Princess Rui nodded and said, "If you want anything, just tell your brother and brother directly, and ask them to buy it for you."
Shen Jin responded with a smile when she heard the words, she didn't mean to be polite at all, she knew in her heart that Princess Rui just wanted to see the relationship between the two of them get closer, and it would be bad if they were too polite.
Princess Rui seemed to have known that Shen Jin would come to eat today, so she ordered the kitchen to prepare food suitable for her, but Princess Rui didn't keep anyone after the meal was used up.
The next day Shen Qi came early in the morning, and it was delivered by Yongle Hou Shizi himself, but he didn't stay longer and just left after meeting Princess Rui, not because he didn't want to stay longer, but because he had an errand and didn't dare to stay. Too much delay.
"Mother, where is my sister?" Shen Qi asked after Yongle Hou Shizi had left.
Princess Rui smiled and said, "I'm afraid she hasn't woken up yet, girl Jin is pregnant now, she sleeps more than others."
Shen Qi nodded when she heard the words, Princess Rui lowered her eyes slightly and said, "Your father is probably supposed to come out in a few days, when the time comes, our family will have a meal together."
"Really?" Shen Qi looked at Princess Rui with surprise on his face.
Princess Rui casually hummed, leaned on the soft cushion, and didn't explain anything, "When the time comes, send someone to talk to the Zheng family."
The implication was to call Shen Zi, Shen Qi nodded reluctantly and said, "I see."
Princess Rui said, "Okay, since you're here, go visit Miss Wu."
"Mother, I think Fifth Younger Sister..." Shen Qi said hesitantly. After thinking for a long time, she felt more and more wrong.
Princess Rui glanced at Shen Qi, and just smiled, "No one is a fool, and some small thoughts don't hinder anything, as long as you don't pretend to be smart."
Shen Qi said, "I see."
Princess Rui didn't say anything anymore, Shen Qi said upon seeing this, "Then I'll go see Fifth Sister first."
"En." Princess Rui nodded, and suddenly remembered something, "Concubine Xu and your fourth younger sister are overly worried about your father's affairs, and the doctor said I'm afraid it's not good."
Shen Qi pursed her lower lip, she didn't care about Concubine Xu's life or death, but the fourth younger sister was her younger sister after all, she felt a little melancholy after knowing it, Princess Rui said, "When you see fifth girl, tell her, After all, it is her biological mother and sister." At the beginning when Shen Rong wanted to plot against her and Concubine Chen, Princess Rui didn't forget, asking Shen Qi to tell her about it was just to beat her and make her be honest. Just like what Princess Rui said just now, I am not afraid of people's small thoughts, but I am afraid that some people will think that others are fools.
"I see." Shen Qi complied and let out a breath after walking out of the room.
Cuixi poured a cup of tea for Princess Rui and said, "After all, the fourth girl is the younger sister of the princess, and the princess may not be able to figure it out for a while."
Princess Rui smiled, and didn't say anything, she can naturally keep Shen Qi from knowing this, but is this really okay? Princess Rui can't see what will happen next, and how long can she protect the children.
"The word luck is the most unclear at this time." Princess Rui said slowly. She never thought that among the children, the one with the best aptitude and the clearest vision would be the one who is silent. If it wasn't for later Shen Jin's letter was sent from the border town, and Princess Rui might have underestimated her.
Cuixi stopped talking, and Princess Rui took a sip of tea and said, "How about Mrs. Li?"
"Ms. Li was a little frightened by the prince's incident, and the doctor prescribed the medicine and already used it." Cuixi said, "It's been much better recently."
Princess Rui nodded, and Cuixi asked, "My lord still needs..."
"No need." Princess Rui lowered her eyes slightly and said, "Xuan'er's position is stable."
"Yes." Cuixi said nothing more.
When Shen Qi saw Shen Rong, she saw that Shen Rong was scolding a maid. Seeing Shen Qi, she sent the maid away, and then called, "Big sister."
"En." Shen Qi's attitude was gentle, "Is there anything you need here?"
"It's not lacking, and my mother and concubine take good care of me." The scar on Shen Rong's face is much lighter, but she can still see it clearly, "I'm worried about my father's situation, and I'm a little impatient, and I made my eldest sister laugh." This is explaining just the behavior.
Shen Qi just smiled and didn't care, and said, "If there is anything missing, just tell me."
Shen Rong was moved and said, "Thank you, big sister."
Shen Qi asked Shen Rong a few more words, then she stopped smiling and said with a sigh, "I have something to tell you."
"But father..." Shen Rong asked with horror on her face.
Shen Qi shook his head and said, "Father's side is fine, there is an imperial doctor taking care of it, and I heard from my eldest brother that the environment there is also good, but no one dares to neglect."
Shen Rong reached out and patted her chest lightly and said, "That's good."
Shen Qi said, "On the contrary, Concubine Xu and Fourth Younger Sister are too worried about their father's affairs, and I'm afraid it's not good."
Shen Rong's face paled suddenly, eyes full of fear.
Seeing Shen Rong's appearance, Shen Qi confirmed his guess, "Sister Fifth, do you want to visit? If..."
"No!" Shen Rong refused in a sharp voice, as if she was frightened by herself, "Big sister, I feel a little uncomfortable..."
"Then I'll take my leave first. If it doesn't work, I'll call the doctor to have a look." Shen Qi said softly.
Shen Rong nodded, trembling slightly.
