Zhao Zhen.

Hearing this name, Shu E was taken aback.

Today's saint's surname is Zhao, and his first name benefits. In the second year of Tianxi, he was established as the crown prince and given the name Zhen.

This Zhao Zhen, could it be......

"As a princess, how could she live in such a remote place?" Shu E asked.

Hua Dongyang glanced at Shu E quickly, shook his head and said, "I don't know the reason for this. I also overheard the two old imperial doctors talking, only to realize that she was actually Her Royal Highness the Princess. I used to think that my wife, like me, was an unfavored concubine. ”

"But Han and Xu?" Shu E asked. There are two Hanlin medical officials in the Hanlin Medical Hospital, one surnamed Han and the other surnamed Xu. Both of them are old imperial doctors who have served in the palace for many years, and the queen mother's medicinal drinks and medicinal diets have always been managed by the two of them. Shu E had heard Hua Dongyang talk about the situation in the medical hospital, and knew that these two people had served the longest and had the most seniority.

"Madame is like a god!" Hua Dongyang nodded in praise.

Shu E showed a puzzled look: "It's just that there is a princess living there, and no one in the palace knows about it?" Has no one ever wondered where the princess had gone, and no one ever asked who the man was? ”

Hua Dongyang shook his head, "I don't know. Looking at the meaning of Han Xu and the others, this matter should be very secret, and the lower officials have no intention of peeking into this secret, and when Mrs. asks each other today, she should not hide it, but ......"

"Don't worry, keep your mouth shut!" Shu E smiled slightly, knowing the origin of that Miao Yuan, knowing that she had been hit hard, and the inexplicable feeling of being driven out by her cold words had long since disappeared.

It's just that since you know the way, you have to try to help her.

……

After lunch, Huafu came with the news, it turned out that the Queen Mother and the Emperor had a will, and on the twenty-eighth day of April, the willow branch of Jin Lingshan County was the county monarch, and the royal title was "Xingping".

The sealing of concubines has no ceremony or edict, but it is just to obey the will of the queen mother and the emperor. It's just that of the eight women selected that day, although Liu Zhi is not the highest in the starting position, he is the first to be sealed. So when the news came, it was particularly exciting for everyone in the harem. Although Liu Zhi is pregnant, the Queen Mother has already released her words, but at this time, it still caused a lot of fluctuations.

The most obvious thing is the congratulations of the harem people.

On the same day, the willow branch was first favored, and the news of the sealing had already come, but the rules in the palace were that the concubine had been sealed, and the merit was not because of the favor, so it was gone. But on that day, the people still sent congratulatory gifts and messengers. Shu E understood that what everyone congratulated that day was probably not the favored willow branch, but the emperor's heart.

After Liu Zhi became pregnant, Shu E was busy with the troubles in her palace and did not congratulate her. Later, Waffle mentioned this matter and said: "Many people have already sent people to go, what does Madame say?" Shu E thought for a while and said: "Listen to the meaning of Liu Ruxu, Liu Xianjun will be sealed soon, since we are already a few days late, let's just wait for the time." ”

Hua Fu said at the time: "I'm so afraid that I will be misunderstood by Liu Xianjun, and I will be called Mrs. ...... by others."

"Do you say that I tend to be inflammatory, and only watch the will of the Queen Mother and the Emperor to act?" Shu E knew that it was inconvenient for Hua Fu to say these words that were not good for her, so she simply said it for her, "I think that Liu Xianjun is not such a person, he shouldn't be careful, what others say, I can't hear it, so it's just that." ”

Although I didn't see a ceremony for this sealing, after all, she was also a concubine.

Early in the morning of the twenty-eighth day, Shu Efu arrived at Qingshou Palace, and Liu Zhi arrived. Although it was her auspicious day, it was still the same as that day, dressed in green. The two maids followed behind him, one was Liu Rusu, and the other must be Liu Yiyun.

Shu E's life experience is limited, and the pregnant women she has seen are limited to Shuyan, Qin Meiren and Willow Branch. Shuyan suffered a big change, and her expression was blank; The beauty of the piano is obviously sick, and her illness is difficult to hide; The willow branches in front of me are just as I saw them that day, no, compared with the first time I saw them, they are more smoky and green, and they are elegant and refined.

Liu Zhi bowed four times to the Queen Mother, and knelt to listen to the Queen Mother's instructions. The Queen Mother hurriedly raised her hand to signal, and Liuquan stepped forward to pick her up.

"You're a man with a body, so stand and listen." The Queen Mother Wen Yan said: "The sealing is to make you better understand your identity and responsibilities. Serving the emperor and giving birth to the emperor's heir is the greatest duty of a concubine. The more the emperor likes you, the more you must be obedient and diligent, not pampered and arrogant, and do not do whatever you want, I am relieved of you. Then there is to take care of the body diligently, and the pregnancy is not as good as in the past, and people can't think of it for a while, so they go to tell the Yan's family, and if it doesn't work, tell the queen, or tell the mourning family. ”

Willow Branch bowed, answered "yes", and stopped talking.

The Queen Mother thought for a while and said, "You go and salute the little lady, the emperor, and the queen again, that's it." It is inevitable that the sisters in the palace will congratulate you these days, don't work too hard, don't be gluttonous. ”

Liu Zhi bowed down to lead the training, and when he saw that the Queen Mother had nothing to say, he immediately took his leave.

Shu E has been with the Queen Mother, and when she saw Liu Zhi say goodbye, she took a bowl of warm tea from Zhu Yan's hand and gave it to the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother looked at Shu E's hand, seemed to move more flexibly, and hurriedly took it. Slowly drank half a bowl, his expression was solemn, as if he had something on his mind, and after a while, he handed the tea bowl to Zhu Yan, sighed, and said: "This kid looks likeable, but his personality is too cold, it seems that ...... Not the blessed......"

Liuquan and Zhu Yan hurriedly persuaded with a smile: "Thanks to Niangniang Hongfu, Xingping Junjun is already pregnant with a dragon descendant. In the spring of next year, the mother can hug the little emperor grandson. Xingping Junjun is a blessed person! ”

The Queen Mother laughed when she heard this, "The mouths of the two of you are becoming more and more skillful, and everything has reached my heart." It's just that if you can give birth to a dragonborn, then whether it's a prince or a princess, it's because the mourning family has entrusted the blessing of Liu Junjun. gave her the number of 'Xingping', also to get the color of prosperity and peace. ”

After laughing for a while, he suddenly remembered something, and said to Shu E: "Originally, a few days ago, you said that you were recuperating, and I see that your complexion is much better, and Chengri's family is also bored in the back, so it is better to go to Anqing Hall tomorrow to help me put the books on the shelves back into place, compile a list, and find books in the future, which is also more convenient." Who knew that he was injured again......"

Shu E also felt bored for a long time, not to mention that in Yong'an Hall, it was inevitable to think about those trivial things. He hurriedly agreed to read the book.

The Queen Mother shook her hand and said, "I see that your hands are much better and can move a little more." It's just that the injury is on the hand, and if you fall disabled, it will be a lifelong regret. As he spoke, he took Shu'e's hand and looked at it carefully. Shu E was afraid that the Queen Mother would ask about the reason for her injury, and she was extremely uneasy. The Queen Mother is shrewd and meticulous, and Shu E knows the truth. Moreover, even if the Queen Mother is not so shrewd, Shu'e is unwilling to deceive the Queen Mother. It's just that this matter can never be said.

The Queen Mother looked at Shu E's expression, as if she was trying her best to avoid something. Said slowly: "If you don't want to say, I won't ask." It's just that the more you don't say this, the more people will feel that things are weird, and the more reassuring it will be. You have only been in the palace for a few months, and you have been injured one after another. Since you don't want me to know the truth, you have to learn to protect yourself. ”

Shu E was grateful, saluted the Queen Mother, and returned to Yong'an Hall.

Back in the room, Waffle was already making a gift for the willow branches. Shu E smiled and said, "Gift-giving is really a top and cumbersome matter. Horizontally and vertically, it's those things in the library, find a few things today, find a few things tomorrow. It's just a matter of giving a gift, every time you give a gift, there must be a return gift, in and out, but it really trivializes people to death. ”

Hua Fu brought the four-color gift to Shu E, and said, "Fortunately, every quarter, the mother and the emperor have some rewards. Presumably because the Queen Mother likes Madame, the reward for coming to Madame is also very rich. He pulled out a piece of material and said, "Madame, what do you think of this material?" ”

Shu E took it and looked at it, it was a pale cyan soft satin with silver light, silver-white silk as the warp, cyan silk as the weft, one group of warp threads and two sets of weft threads intertwined, it looked like the cyan was shining with silver light, very beautiful. Although Shu E didn't understand the method of weaving, she also felt that this material was soft to the touch, and said to Hua Fu: "Isn't this the material that the emperor will reward each room after his birthday?" ”

Hua Fu didn't answer, but there was a strange look in his eyes.
