Chapter 541: He's Out of the Palace

Xiao Huai had a different opinion: "The princess is pregnant and can't be affected." What if you bump into it? ”

The Cabinet made a mistake.

The emperor crown prince has the ability, the wrist, and the skill of controlling people, which can be described as invincible.

Then coupled with the rare affection of a monarch, the harem is far away from the palace struggle, and presents a peaceful and harmonious atmosphere, which is of course good.

But right now, it's not good.

Now that there are three fathers, sons, and daughters-in-law in the entire palace, the crown princess is pregnant, so there is a shortage of manpower to receive the wife at the palace banquet.

You can't hold a palace banquet, and all the ministers are summoned and not the officials and dependents, right?

The point is that there is no clan wife in the court who can replace it.

If Helan, the king of Jingnan, and Huo Yan, the king of Ruyang, are married, then it is not a problem for their princess to come to help.

But isn't the King of Ruyang still married, let alone the King of Jingnan, Huo Ji finally has a fiancΓ©e, but he doesn't have a word here, Princess Jingnan doesn't know if she was born!

So, the ministers fell silent in unison.

Anyway, I'll talk about it when the two of them figure it out.

Helan Zhen and Huo Yan didn't speak, they naturally knew the importance of the baby in Shen Xi's womb.

If the emperor never sets up a concubine in his life, it is equivalent to only Xiao Huai, the root of his life.

And Xiao Huai seems to be more than him Lao Tzu in this regard, if Shen Xi has a mistake in this fetus, and some disease will fall on his body in the future, which will affect the heirs, it will be a big sin.

Shen Ruopu was even more difficult to say anything.

Dingguo Gong was still worried about Shen Xi stretching out his hand in Han Ning's incident some time ago, and after thinking about it, he said: "According to the minister's opinion, I simply don't invite the officials and relatives, and let the women at all levels kowtow in the East Palace, so that the princess doesn't have to work too hard." ”

Xiao Huai felt that this method was good, and silently hugged his fists with Dingguo Gong.

The emperor stroked a white jade paper weighing in his hand, but said slowly: "On Chinese New Year's Eve, the holy decree after the canonization is to be promulgated, how can the women hastily kowtow?" ”

Everyone was stunned again.

In the past few months, I haven't seen him say anything to canonize Mrs. Wei, and I thought that this matter was revealed, or that he had other plans.

This was suddenly brought up, only to find out that he was still worried about it.

Anyway, as soon as the words came out, Xiao Huai had nothing to say.

He only had this mother, and she didn't enjoy any glory, and it was impossible for him to make her give in at this moment.

He looked at Shen Xi in embarrassment.

Shen Xi squeezed his hand and shook his head.

In fact, she didn't feel so careful, Liu Menglan said that she could live at least seven or eight months with peace of mind, and now that the most dangerous first three months have passed, it is no longer so dangerous.

And even if she came forward to receive her, who would dare to come up and bump into her?

Moreover, the officials and relatives will not be so uninteresting, knowing that she and the child in her belly are so important, and they still pestering her.

It's just that Xiao Huai said this, and everyone didn't dare to make a mistake.

"Okay, send a few more people to follow when the time comes, just pay attention." The emperor put down the paperweight, and this is considered to be a foregone conclusion.

Here we discussed the trivial matters of the palace banquet again.

Xiao Huai leaned into her ear and whispered, "When the time comes, you don't have to accompany you, just stay in the East Palace."

"The official family is here, and the people from the Honglu Temple and the Ministry of Rites have arranged for them, so that they can do what they should do, and when the edict is issued, I will take you out and kowtow."

Shen Xi pursed his lips and nodded.

And so it was decided.

Next comes the preparation phase.

Each ministry is responsible for everything, of course, it will not easily alarm Shen Xi, but there are always some things to work on her.

For example, the selection of tea utensils and tableware, the flowers and bonsai placed in each palace, and the clothes she should wear when the edict is issued, which hairpin she should wear when she goes to the banquet, what color handkerchief she wants to wear when receiving worship, and what melons and fruits are placed on the table.

It's all trivial, not tiring, but tedious.

Originally, Xiao Huai still didn't want them to bother her all the time, but Liu Menglan repeatedly explained that she had to move more activities, which would be conducive to the growth of the child in her womb and the time to give birth, so he reluctantly closed his eyes.

Because there is no concubine, Shen Xi is not only busy with the East Palace, but also has to take care of the Qianqing Palace.

In a flash, it was a small year, and the imperial dining room cooked dumplings with various fillings.

At dinner, Shen Xi and Xiao Huai went to the Qianqing Palace to send filial piety, but who knew that the emperor was not in the palace!

When I asked the palace people around him, I didn't know when he would leave the palace. However, he went out with a few henchmen, so there should be no problem with safety.

The next day does not have to be early.

Xiao Huai still went to the front hall early to deal with government affairs, and Shen Xi took the palace maids to the internal affairs office to choose the ornaments to be used for the palace banquet.

When passing through the Qianqing Palace, I saw a group of people wearing civilian clothes and entered the palace gate, and I was suspicious, so I couldn't help but turn around and take a look.

Inside the door, a eunuch stopped her with a smile: "Good morning, princess." The emperor is in charge of the government, and it is inconvenient to summon the crown princess at this time. ”

Shen Xi didn't come to see the emperor.

She asked, "Who came just now?" ”

The eunuch still smiled: "Your Highness may be dazzled, no one came in just now." ”

Shen Xi was surprised in her heart, she obviously saw four or five men dressed in ordinary clothes walking in, and the back of the leader was still familiar, looking a little like the emperor, why didn't anyone come?

"Really?" She wondered.

"Not really." The eunuch shook his head like a rattle.

Shen Xi was helpless, looked at the palace gate again, and had no choice but to leave.

It is clear that people have entered, but they say that they have not entered, what is the reason?

The emperor left the palace last night, and she didn't receive the news of when she would return to the palace, could it be that the person she saw was really the emperor?

But how could the emperor spend the night outside? What did he do that night?

Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the world has been peaceful, what other people and things outside the palace are worth him to linger all night?

Shen Xi only felt that the emperor was getting more and more weird.

What does this look like...... Speaking of offense, why does it seem that there is a pink confidant hiding outside? Could it be that he has been guarding for so many years, and finally he is willing to let the iron tree bloom?

But thinking of Xiao Huai's previous speculation, she buried this matter in her heart for the time being, so as not to have any conflicts between their father and son years ago.

Back in the East Palace, Xiao Huai was discussing with Zhan Shifu and other subordinates.

Seeing her sitting next to her in a trance, he beckoned her to come over and handed her his hand stove: "Is it cold?" If it's cold, don't run around, Liu Menglan's guy is not very reliable in my opinion, don't turn around and let him cheat. ”

Shen Xi glanced at him, Liu Menglan didn't think she was dying slowly, he was brave enough to be vague about the emperor's heir?

"If there is nothing else to do, the minister will go down on an errand."

The subordinates retired one after another, and also waved away the palace people at the door intimately. 10
