Chapter 20: The Handle

In the twenty-first year of Jingde, the emperor's life, the Quartet came to congratulate, and all countries worshipped.

Naturally, there was a palace banquet in the palace, and Shen Chuchu didn't want to enter the palace because of King Jing's affairs, so she planned to hide Qingjing, but the queen specially sent a soft sedan chair to pick her up.

Because there were so many envoys from his country, Fu Heng was temporarily assigned to be responsible for the security of the palace banquet. Shen Chuchu couldn't find an excuse, so he had no choice but to follow him into the palace.

Like last time, she was led all the way to Fengyi Palace.

Only this time, there were many women in the palace who came to see the queen, and Shen Chuchu walked in with his head down and saluted respectfully.

"Please Lady Ann, Queen. ”

The queen smiled kindly, "Hurry up, this kid, don't be polite." ”

Shen Chuchu got up with a smile, she glanced slightly at the few women sitting on the side, and was stunned for a moment.

The princess of the county is also here.

"How is your body recovering recently?" the queen said with a smile, "A few days ago, the mother's family of this palace sent an old ginseng to the palace, and the left and right palaces couldn't use it, so I thought it would be better to bring it back to you to replenish your body." ”

Shen Chuchu hurriedly spoke, "The courtier's body is no longer in serious trouble, how can such a precious thing be used by the courtier, wouldn't it be a waste." ”

"As I said, your body is weak, and that is to save the emperor, even if you have to use the most expensive medicine. ”

The queen said lightly to the palace maid on the side, "After the palace banquet is over in a while, remember to wrap the old ginseng and send it to the general's mansion." ”

"Yes. ”

Shen Chuchu was helpless, so he could only bend down and thank him.

As he was talking, someone from the palace came to report that the Internal Affairs Pavilion had something about the process of this palace banquet and asked the queen to finalize it.

"Okay, the palace banquet is about to start, there is still something to do here in the palace, so let's disperse. ”

"Yes, sis. ”

Shen Chuchu followed a few women out of Fengyi Palace, and before she could sneak away to find Zhao Xiyue, she was stopped by Mama Cui.

"Miss Jiang. ”

Shen Chuchu sighed in his heart and walked over resignedly.

"I've seen the princess of the county. ”

The princess of the county is wearing a palace dress today, looking noble and solemn, she glanced at Shen Chuchu, and said lightly, "You have saved the saint now, and you have become a celebrity in front of the queen's mother, I'm afraid you are too lazy to take care of me anymore, right?"

Shen Chuchu hurriedly smiled and said, "Niangniang said that she laughed, how dare I, I have today, it all depends on Niangniang's support." ”

"You'd better remember. The princess took two steps closer to her, leaned against her ear, and her voice was slightly cold, "Don't forget, you still have a handle in my hand." ”

Shen Chuchu bit his lip and nodded slightly.

The princess glanced at her, turned and walked away.

Shen Chuchu looked at the back of the princess of the county leaving, as if a stone had been pressed in her heart, and it was a handle, what kind of handle did this Jiang Chu have in her hands!

When she arrived at Zhao Xiyue's palace, she was rummaging through boxes and cabinets looking for clothes. As soon as Shen Chuchu entered, he was shocked by the pile of clothes.

"Tut-tut. She picked up one casually, "This is the butterfly yarn that Nantong tribute, I heard that it is shining when you walk, a horse of ten thousand gold and still priceless? This is Dongzhu, so big and round, I am afraid that one is worth a fortune, and it is actually inlaid into your clothes." ”

Shen Chuchu shook his head and sighed, "The world says that there are thousands of gold and silver in Lord Huo Du's mansion, I'm afraid it's not true, I think Huo Chen will move all his belongings to you soon." ”

Zhao Xiyue lowered her head to find her clothes, and opened her mouth without raising her head, "Each other, have you forgotten that Fu Heng asked someone to send things to your palace every once in a while?"

Shen Chuchu choked.

Zhao Xiyue finally found a satisfactory one, she took the dress and compared it to Shen Chuchu, "How about this?"

Shen Chuchu was a little embarrassed, "It's not bad." ”

"What's wrong with you? listless?"

Shen Chuchu sighed and told the princess about the princess. Zhao Xiyue frowned, suddenly thought of something, and slapped the table.

"It's on me. ”

Shen Chuchu glanced at Zhao Xiyue suspiciously, "You?" She really couldn't figure out what else Zhao Xiyue could do to help her besides eating, drinking, and having fun.

"I can ask Huo Chen to check on Jiang Chu. Zhao Xiyue hooked the corners of her mouth, "Anyway, he checks this and that for his father all day long, and he is the best at these things." ”

Shen Chuchu thought about it and nodded with satisfaction.

"Good idea. ”

When Zhao Xiyue chooses to dress up, the palace banquet is about to start. After all, it was His Majesty's birthday, so it couldn't be too late, so the two hurried over.

When passing by the plum garden, Shen Chuchu paused.

"The new green plum planted here?"

She remembered that when she was in the palace, it was still a red plum here.

"Yes. An old eunuch nodded and opened his mouth on the side, "It's all new." ”

"If you like it, drive Ming'er to ask someone to send two plants to the general's mansion. Zhao Xiyue dragged her, "But you really have to be faster now." ”

Shen Chuchu smiled helplessly.

She was about to lift her feet and walk forward, her gaze swept to a random place, and then she paused suddenly, and she frowned.

"Wait!"
