41. Nine Treasures
Qi Jinghuan took Shen Youan to accompany the Queen Mother to dine in the Yongshou Palace, the Queen Mother used it more than usual, although it was still not much, but Qi Jinghuan was not forced anymore, and only ordered the Queen Mother's personal female officials to serve well, and he also had government affairs to deal with, and he couldn't always stay in the Yongshou Palace, so he left Shen Youan in the Yongshou Palace to accompany the Queen Mother.
When Qi Jinghuan was about to leave, he took Shen Youan outside to give some advice, Shen Youan repeatedly promised that he would serve the Queen Mother well, Qi Jinghuan took a deep breath and said; "It's not as long as you serve the Queen Mother well, you also have to take care of yourself."
"The slave and maid understand."
"The Queen Mother is in a bad mood because of the matter of Princess Zhaode, you have to be comforted, the Queen Mother likes you, in her heart, you are the same as Princess Zhaode, but Princess Zhaode is gone, you can also make her feel better by your side."
Qi Jinghuan babbled a bunch of words there, Shen Youan couldn't listen to them anymore, she only heard the sentence You are the same as Princess Zhaode, what does this mean? Princess Zhaode has been married to Prince Zhaode for more than ten years, how can she be compared? It doesn't seem right to think so, anyway, how can I be the same as Crown Princess Zhaode?
She couldn't help but say; "Your Majesty, the slaves and maids in the Queen Mother will naturally do their best, but what you said about the Queen Mother likes slaves and maids, and the slaves and maids really can't understand it."
Qi Jinghuan sniffed depressedly, he was excited to explain to his daughter-in-law that he wanted to have a good relationship with his mother, but suddenly found that his daughter-in-law couldn't understand his words at all, he stared at Shen Youan meaninglessly, Shen Youan bit his lip unconsciously, and took two steps back, Qi Jinghuan followed and took two steps forward, Shen Youan stepped back again, and suddenly found that he had kicked something, and when he looked back, he had retreated to the pillar, and he couldn't retreat, she held the pillar with both hands, and listened to Qi Jinghuan; "Don't you understand?"
"If you understand something, please make it clear."
She really didn't understand, her head was dizzy since she entered the Yongshou Palace, and she didn't understand what Her Majesty was talking about with the Queen Mother.
"The Queen Mother has long regarded you as a daughter-in-law, in her heart, Princess Zhaode and you are her daughter-in-law, she is sad for Princess Zhaode, naturally only you can comfort her."
"Ahh
"Ah what, I have made it very clear, I have already told the Queen Mother that I am interested in you, and the Queen Mother has long regarded you as a daughter-in-law in her heart, and I have been urging me to bring you to her old man's house to say goodbye, but you don't believe what I mean to you, you always pretend not to know, just pretend to be in front of me, and you can't pretend in front of the Queen Mother anymore."
Qi Jinghuan's voice was a little muffled, and he sounded a little aggrieved, but Shen Youan still didn't understand, what was she pretending?
Receiving Shen Youan's puzzled gaze, Qi Jinghuan took another step forward, his body almost attached to Shen Youan's body, lowered his head to Shen Youan's ear, and said softly; "Don't forget that you slept in my bed that day, in the heart of the Queen Mother, you have long been my person."
After speaking, he stared at her belly, let out two chuckles, and left with the group, Shen Youan's face turned red, she finally knew why the Queen Mother glanced at her stomach intentionally or unintentionally, this is really a big wrong, she has nothing with Her Majesty, staring at the back of Qi Jinghuan leaving, Shen Youan suddenly wanted to rush up and punch her twice regardless of his identity, just like Li Muan said, if she was unhappy, she punched others twice, and she was angry, she felt that this remark was really weird, and she was uncomfortable, Why do you want to be angry with others, now I know that sometimes the anger really needs to be beaten twice to be extinguished, but I don't dare, that's your majesty.
She is a little aggrieved, she is a serious girl, how can she not be innocent in the eyes of others? If it's just the side, as a female official, in the eyes of others, she is on the dragon bed again, is it in the eyes of others that she also seduced her majesty? The more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she became, if so, wouldn't she lose the face of her father, she stood there and slowly reddened her eyes, but the queen mother didn't go back when she saw her, so she took Yao Siyu's hand and came out to find her, as soon as she came out, she saw her standing there with her head down, her eyes were red, and she looked like she was going to cry or not. I can't let her be wronged here, so I hurriedly ran forward and comforted; "Good boy, what's wrong with you, are you reluctant to Ayou, don't cry, if you are reluctant to Ayou, you will go back to Shengning Palace, the mourning family won't let you accompany you, won't let you accompany you, don't cry."
Shen Youan originally felt aggrieved, but after listening to the Queen Mother's words, he couldn't help laughing, sniffed and said; "Queen Mother, the slave didn't want to cry, you misunderstood."
When the Queen Mother saw her laughing, she bluffed and said; "I also said that I didn't cry, I saw that my eyes were red, it was not good for the mourning family, you and His Majesty had a result, so I left you here to accompany the mourning family, you are naturally reluctant to part with Ayou, that's it, the mourning family will order someone to send you back."
Shen You'an's head was suddenly full of black lines, what does it mean that the same majesty has a result? Shen Youan hurriedly grabbed the sleeve of the queen mother and said; "Queen Mother, the slave and the maid don't have it, the slave and the maid want to stay here with you, you don't want to drive the slave and the maid away, if you dare to go with the slave and the maid, how can the slave and the maid explain there?"
When the Queen Mother heard this, she said in her heart, what's going on with this Ayou, didn't she say that she likes other girls? Why do you always threaten people, pat her on the shoulder; "Don't worry, girl, the mourning family will make the decision for you, if Ayou bullies you again in the future, you come to talk to the mourning family, and the mourning family will punish him for you."
Shen You'an listened to the clouds, she naturally had never seen the Queen Mother like this, even if she was a real daughter-in-law, she didn't have such a kindness, but Yao Si Meng knew the appearance of the first Queen Mother to Princess Zhaode, the Queen Mother is a person who protects her shortcomings, as long as she likes it, she is naturally loved by the heart, Yao Si Meng saw that this Shen Si Meng was only afraid that it was the first time he saw this battle, and he didn't understand the Queen Mother, so he said with a smile; "Queen Mother, how tired it is to stand all the time like this, let's go to the Warm Pavilion to sit and talk, Your Majesty has said that you will let Shen Si Meng accompany you in Yongshou Palace, don't you often say before, do you want Shen Si to come over to accompany you?"
"But You'an."
When Shen Youan saw the Queen Mother's worried expression, he hurriedly said that he really didn't have to give up His Majesty, and the Queen Mother was relieved to leave people in Yongshou Palace.
Shen Youan helped the Queen Mother into the warm pavilion, the Queen Mother let her sit beside her, looked at it carefully, and occasionally glanced at Shen Youan's belly, if Shen Youan didn't understand why the Queen Mother looked at her stomach before, she would understand it all, blushing and unconsciously covering her lower abdomen with her hands, the Queen Mother was happy when she saw it, and she was still shy about feelings.
"You'an girl, did Ayou say when he will make you the queen?"
Shen Youan was in a fugue, when she heard the Queen Mother coming, she was so frightened that she trembled all over her body, and said busily; "The Queen Mother, the slave maid is just a female official of Her Majesty, not what the Queen Mother thinks."
She hurriedly explained, but listened to the Queen Mother teasingly; "Oh, is that true?"
Shen Youan was dumbfounded, it was indeed not the only one, she had hugged and kissed Her Majesty, and she had kissed her, it seemed that there was really nothing to explain, but it was not what the Queen Mother thought, she didn't know how to explain it for a while, and it took a while to come up with a sentence and said seriously; "The slave and the maid only have physical contact with His Majesty."
Not only was the Queen Mother happy, but even Yao Simeng, who was standing on the side, couldn't help laughing, Shen Youan smiled awkwardly, his face was a little hot, it was better not to explain.
Lin Sishe brought people in and put some hot tea and snacks, and asked the Queen Mother if she wanted to go to the Buddha Hall later, the Queen Mother nodded, turned back to Shen You'an, and said; "Later, the mourning family will go to the Buddhist hall to recite the scriptures, do you want to accompany the mourning family."
Shen Youan originally came to accompany the Queen Mother, and when the Queen Mother went to the Buddha Hall, she naturally had to follow.
The Buddha hall is located in the right side hall of the Yongshou Palace, the Queen Mother will go over to recite the Sutra after a nap every afternoon, and today Qi Jinghuan brought Shen Youan over, but the Queen Mother postponed the time of chanting.
The Queen Mother asked Shen Youan to take Shen Youan to bathe first, and the Queen Mother was afraid that Shen Youan would not be puzzled, so she specially told her to bathe and burn incense before entering the Buddha Hall to show her respect for the Buddha.
These Shen Youan naturally understood, after following the palace people to bathe, the Queen Mother personally burned incense for her, which flattered her, and the Queen Mother smiled charitantly; "Don't panic, in the past, when Ah Ning accompanied the mourning family into the Buddhist hall for the first time, the mourning family also burned incense for her."
Ah Ning is the nickname of the crown princess of Zhaode, a trace of grief flashed in the eyes of the queen mother, she originally thought that after the young girl got married, she would let Ah Ning accompany her with her, but unfortunately, Ah Ning actually took a step ahead of herself.
"What is the girl calling at home?"
Shen Youan knew that the Queen Mother was asking her nickname, and the nicknames were naturally called by the family, but when she was at home, only her father would call her Jiubao, her brothers and sisters of the same generation all called her You'an, and the nephews and nieces of Axi's generation all called her aunt, as for the aunts in the house, they all called themselves the county lords, if you say a nickname, only the father calls her Jiubao, but how can this name be said with the Queen Mother?
Seeing her looking down and thinking, the Queen Mother said with a smile; "It's the title of the family, just like the mourning family calls Ayou, who is called His Majesty."
Shen Youan shook his head and said; "Back to the Queen Mother, the slave maid has no nickname."
The Queen Mother wondered; "How could it not be."
Shen Youan continued; "The slave and the maid father and the king call the slave and the maid the nine treasures."
"Nine Treasures." The Queen Mother read the name and said with a smile; "This name is good, Jiubao, and the mourning family will call you Jiubao in the future."
"Nope."
Shen Youan shook his head, and the Queen Mother wondered; "Why not."
Shen Youan hurriedly knelt down and said; "Queen Mother, that's what my father called the slave and maid, how can the Queen Mother call the slave and maid the Nine Treasures? Slaves and maids don't dare to be slaves. ”
The Queen Mother sighed and helped her up; "You kid, what don't you dare to be, the name your father gave you is good, you should be, if you think that the mourning family can't be the same as your father's call, then the mourning family will add another treasure to you, called ten treasures."
The Queen Mother said jokingly, Shen Youan hurriedly shook her head, she didn't mean that, when her father called her like this in the past, she never felt that there was anything wrong with this name, but now when she hears this name again, she always feels a little embarrassed.
Concubine Xian has been sitting on the couch since she heard the news from the palace people and has not spoken, since the princess Zhaode went, she went to Yongshou Palace every day to ask for peace, the queen mother did not once want to see herself, today His Majesty took Shen Youan over, the queen mother actually left Shen Youan, does this mean that the queen mother also likes Shen Youan?
The news that Shen Youan was fortunate by Qi Jinghuan was known to the whole palace, and Concubine Xian felt that what she had been worried about had happened, so she thought about starting with the Queen Mother, currying favor with the Queen Mother, and letting the Queen Mother deal with Shen Youan, but she didn't want even the Queen Mother to be co-opted by Shen Youan, so if His Majesty made Shen Youan a concubine, where would there be a place in this harem.
She summoned the palace man on the side; "You go and ask Concubine Yun about the movements over there, and by the way, let someone pass the news to the eldest princess Fuhui, and His Majesty intends to make Shen Youan the queen."
After Concubine Xian gave the order, she squinted her eyes gently, the Marquis of Ruyang Mansion has been biting the Song Mansion like a mad dog for a while, she sent someone to inquire and found out that the eldest princess of Fuhui actually intended to let her daughter enter the palace as the queen, but the Empress Dowager did not allow it, the Marquis of Ruyang did not deal with the Song Mansion like this, naturally she thought that Her Majesty would set himself up as the queen, it was really a fool, she didn't even enter the palace, she dared to make a stumbling block for her father, she wanted to see, spread it, who else dared to ask for the daughter of the Marquis of Ruyang, since it was going to be chaotic, then it would be completely chaotic.
