When Shen Bihan learned that Emperor Cheng Xuan was going to take his concubines to Yan Kingdom to participate in the Hundred Flowers Banquet, he knew that he would definitely accompany him.

At the same time, the eunuchs who came to ventilate the news were also very clear. The posture is humble and flattering: "The slave looks at no one in this palace who can compare with you, the emperor must take you there!" ”

Shen Bihan just raised her chin nobly when she heard this, and she didn't even give a charity in her eyes, there are too many minions who want to slap her like this every day, who makes her a favorite concubine?

The palace maid who was waiting next to her squatted down to beat her legs, and her mouth was full of flattery: "Just now, the slave maid saw Li Guiren and Wang Guiren at the door asking to see them, and the slave maid thought that Niangniang had time to see them, so she asked them to wait at the door!" Presumably, they all want to borrow the light of the mother and accompany it, but they don't look at what role they are, and they dare to think about these! ”

Shen Bihan smiled at the corner of her mouth, slowly closed her eyes, leaned on the chaise longue and closed her eyes, her beautiful face was particularly attractive.

She knows how good her life is, her family background is not very noble, but she is just a concubine of the Eight Mansions, when she entered the palace, the harem was already extremely calm, the emperor has always disliked women, and there are almost few new favorites, and those concubines of the older generation are not young with the queen as the capital, and their faces are decaying. She is like injecting a living spring into this pool of stagnant water, and she has been favored by Emperor Cheng Xuan with her beautiful appearance, and she has not faded for three years! I don't know how many people in the harem stammered her, and even many people who befriended her father in the former court. If it weren't for the emperor's heavy rules, the rights of the harem would be held in the palm of the queen's hand, I'm afraid she would become the master of the harem!

"Presumably, when I ask for peace tomorrow, I will listen to those people again, and there are needles hidden in them!"

Shen Bihan hooked her lips and said slowly: "This palace tasted yesterday's peach well, choose a dish and send it to Jingyang Palace to the queen." ”

"Mother?" Mama Sun, who was serving Queen Yan, looked at the slave kneeling on the ground with an unswerving face, and looked at Queen Yan with suppressed anger.

Empress Yan sat on the couch, and when she heard this, she just waved her hand lightly: "Go down." ”

The slave retreated, in the end, he felt that he looked down on this unfavored queen.

Mama Sun looked at a few silver threads growing between Queen Yan's temples, and when she saw the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes, she felt sorry for this child who had grown up since she was a child: "Niangniang, why are you so troubled?" No matter how favored Shen Guifei is, she can't go! The emperor respects the rules, and he will definitely not let Shen Guifei slap you in the face like this! "What qualifications does she have as a concubine to say in such a charity tone that she will send some peaches to the queen to taste?

No matter how favored she is Shen Guifei, she will always be better than her wife in terms of identity!

Empress Yan's tired forehead, more than ten years have actually stumbled her to this point, she looked at the smooth floor faintly, and sighed: "This palace is now thinking about what to do with her, it is rare that there is a Shen Guifei who can win the emperor's favor, why should this palace be that wicked person." The palace doesn't have to do anything, just raise the eldest prince well, and when he becomes an adult, the palace will be satisfied. ”

The eldest prince was born to a noble concubine five years ago, and when he gave birth, Emperor Cheng Xuan chose to leave his mother and son, and passed the eldest prince to the name of Empress Yan, becoming the son-in-law and the only imperial heir.

When Mama Sun saw that Queen Yan said this, she couldn't say anything else to comfort her, and sighed.

Empress Yan smiled tiredly and bitterly: "This palace is always thinking, what have you gained in this life?" I've probably been torturing myself ever since I got married. Hongu really envies her, even if she is gone, but at least she has not been tempered by time, and she will always be young and beautiful in his mind. ”

When Mama Sun heard this, she knew who she was in Queen Yan's mouth, and she couldn't help but agree in her heart that if Concubine Chun was still there, now that her face was no longer there, I was afraid that the emperor's grace would be gone. Where is it like this, General Xia is in the first rank, and several other brothers of the Xia family have entered the court as officials, and the women in the family are also married very well, including many princesses of the prince.

"!" The chamberlain who passed the message was waiting in front of the emperor, and when he saw Queen Yan, he was very respectful, "The emperor said, you are going to Yan Kingdom to accompany you this time, Shen Guifei, and Jade Concubine." ”

Empress Yan was surprised: "This palace is also going?" "And among the three concubines she brought, she and Concubine Yu have not slept for a few years, I'm afraid that the emperor is going to take them to relax this time!" Do you still bring someone else? ”

The chamberlain replied: "I also brought a few adults from the court, including General Xia, as well as Prince Rui and Princess Rui. ”

Empress Yan sighed faintly, waved his hand to let him out, and said slowly: "There are a lot of people who go this time." "Princess Rui is the second lady of the Xia family, Xia Bitao, after she married Prince Rui, she has always been the object of envy of the noblewomen in the capital, just because Prince Rui is very fond of her, there is no concubine in the back house, and the only two concubines are also from the belly of Prince Rui.

Forget what she wants to do so much, she has a personal fate, and she can't envy others for having a good life-

Dividing line-

The palace of Yan is not as wide as that of the Great Zhou, but it is very exquisite, the eaves are all crystal cast, and even the floor is white jade, and the palace is all ingenious, not to mention that in the not very wide palace, there are miniature versions of famous scenery from all over the world.

"Mother, mother!" A girl wearing a goose-yellow gorgeous palace skirt hurriedly ran from the outside to the hall with a blooming lotus flower, and the palace maids waiting at the door were no longer surprised.

The woman who was practicing calligraphy in the hall raised her head when she heard the sound and showed a gentle smile: "Jiaojiao." ”

Jiaojiao happily leaned up and handed her the lotus flower in her hand: "Jiaojiao picked the flowers for her mother!" Do you like it? ”

"If you don't pick the snow lotus planted by the queen mother, the queen mother will like it more, right?" The young man who followed was dressed in a dark robe, but his handsome and gentle face was full of ridicule.

The palace people waiting in the palace hurriedly bowed and saluted: "His Royal Highness the Prince, the second princess!" ”

Jiaojiao pursed her lips and snorted unhappily, seeing that her mother was not happy, she hurriedly lowered her head and admitted her mistake: "Mother, Jiaojiao is wrong, Jiaojiao will never dare anymore!" ”

Xia Meng shook her head helplessly, but she was reluctant to blame her, just nodded her forehead: "You, what do you have to admit your mistake to your father!" Without waiting for Jiaojiao to show joy, she continued, "But it was planted by your father himself to be given to your mother as a birthday gift." ”

Jiaojiao immediately collapsed her little face, usually her father won't blame her for any mistakes she makes, but it's not good when it comes to her mother!

Xia Meng put down the pen in her hand and looked at the boy: "Why is this time coming?" Didn't you study court affairs in the front hall? ”

The young man's gentle face showed a slight shyness smile: "This morning, the emperor praised his son, so he wanted to tell the queen mother to ......" He knew what the queen mother expected of him.

Xia Meng really touched his head gently, looking at his handsome cheeks a little stunned, the more he grew up, the more he looked like that person......
