Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Harem

When he woke up the next day, Zhao Mu had already gone to the court. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

It was late at night last night, Shen Qiwu and Zhao Mu talked for a long time, and they fell asleep in this imperial study when they were sleepy.

"Mother, you're awake." I don't know when, Wanqing, the personal maid next to the Queen Mother, was already standing beside her.

Shen Qiwu rubbed her sleepy eyes, which were still a little worried, and looked at her with some doubts, "Is it sunny?" Where did Huan'er go? ”

Wanqing smiled and replied, "Miss Huan'er kept watch all night, and she was sent to rest by His Majesty early this morning." The slave and maid are now fine, and they have been sent by His Majesty to serve you. ”

Shen Qiwu nodded, and now the Queen Mother has also gone. This night Qing has also become a lonely person, if you want to gain a foothold in the palace, if you don't go to Qin Yana, you have to come to Shen Qiwu.

Maybe it's because Wanqing is the old person next to Zhao Mu's mother, and Zhao Mu treats her well, so she simply let her continue to serve Shen Qiwu, the new queen.

Wanqing clapped her hands, and a large number of palace maids jumped in. Some held phoenix crowns in their hands, and some held xia clothes in their hands, all kneeling respectfully in front of Shen Qiwu.

"What is this?" Shen Qiwu frowned and looked at Wanqing suspiciously.

Wanqing also knelt down, "Niangniang, you will be the master of the six palaces from now on." These are the rites of the queen. ”

"To wear so many headgear?" Shen Qiwu walked back and forth in front of the jewelry held by a group of palace maids, a little depressed.

This queen has to wear so much jewelry on her head on weekdays, isn't she afraid that she can't bear to fall off her head?

However, complaining is complaining, and Shen Qiwu can only let these palace maids wash her, dress her, and wear a phoenix crown for her.

Wanqing is worthy of being an old person next to the Queen Mother, she does things in an orderly manner and arranges everything very properly.

After dressing up, Shen Qiwu took two steps.

"I'm so tired!"

Wanqing and a group of palace maids surrounded Shen Qiwu and wandered around the harem, and it didn't take long to meet Qin Ya in the imperial garden.

The two looked at each other's outfits and couldn't help laughing. All the palace maids were in the clouds, and only Wanqing was laughing seriously.

"Now that we've met, let's sit down and have a good chat." Qin Ya made an opinion and pointed to the small pavilion in the imperial garden.

Shen Qiwu followed her gaze and nodded involuntarily.

Let a group of palace maids wait in the distance, and the two nobles slowly came to the small pavilion and sat down.

"It's a toss to wear so much on this hot day." Qin Ya sighed and said unhappily.

Now there are only two women in Zhao Mu's harem, and as for the other concubines of the former emperor, they have already moved out. plus the two daughters, one is the queen and the other is the imperial concubine, and the outfits on their bodies are comparable.

Shen Qiwu nodded in agreement, she was already feeling tired now. Walking around with so many things, the sun has not yet heated her to death on this hot day, and the jewelry on her head is already crushing her.

"From now on, we can't do business as usual." Qin Ya hesitated for a moment, looked at Shen Qiwu and said.

As soon as you enter the palace gate, it is as deep as the sea, which is a truth that any woman understands. Now Shen Qiwu is the queen, and she is the imperial concubine, although the relationship is ordinary and usual, but now there is a lack of mutual trust.

Shen Qiwu looked at her and knew that she meant something else. After thinking about it, he said seriously: "Your Majesty is not the first emperor, and you are not Concubine Ning." ”

Qin Ya stroked the hair around her ears and said with a smile: "But don't you think we are very similar?" The first emperor loved the queen mother, and His majesty loved the queen. ”

Shen Qiwu was amused by her words, and couldn't help asking, "Then are you like Concubine Ning?" ”

Qin Ya looked at her and asked rhetorically, "Don't I look like it?" ”

Shen Qiwu looked at her intently, and then shook his head.

"You are not like Concubine Ning, because you don't have children."

"But there will be one after all!" Qin Ya was a little unconvinced, and the jewelry on her head was jingled by her shaking.

Shen Qiwu looked at her eyes, as if he wanted to see through her thoughts. After a while, Qin Ya couldn't stand Shen Qiwu's gaze, and turned her head a little panicked, looking at the flowers in the imperial garden.

"But I won't have children!"

Qin Ya was shocked, and looked at Shen Qiwu suddenly, her eyes full of incredulity.

Shen Qiwu sat there very quietly, she thought about it for a long time. In the end, he said this, because this was originally the price of getting the support of the Qin family.

"This is what I promised your father, and I also said that I am not in good health and will not have children."

When Qin Ya heard this, her expression was obviously stunned. However, she quickly controlled her emotions and said, "Then I really don't look like Concubine Ning." ”

Shen Qiwu grinned and patted Qin Ya on the shoulder, as if telling his juniors, "You don't have to think too much, you know my temperament." As for Your Majesty's side, I believe time will tell you slowly! ”

After finishing speaking, he left Qin Yaleng in place, and Shen Qiwu took his group of palace maids away.

"Mother? Empress? "The little girl is an old person by Qin Ya's side, she has been by Qin Ya's side since she was very young, and Qin Ya took her with her when she entered Beijing this time, and you can see the closeness in it.

"What did the queen say?" The little girl looked at Qin Ya a little nervously. Now it's no longer in the Qin Mansion, it's a palace that needs to be done step by step.

And the other party is the queen mother of the mother of a country, and the little girl is a little worried that her master is afraid that she will not be able to cope with it, so she will suffer.

Qin Ya looked at her and said seriously: "The queen told me a joke, I like this joke very much." ”

The little girl obviously didn't understand, and looked at her stupidly.

Now that Shen Qiwu has become the queen, she naturally wants to move into the Kunning Palace, which symbolizes dignity.

From now on, I may only be able to stay in this cold palace to read and write.

Shen Qiwu shook his head and smiled, and walked into Kunning Palace in silence.

There are enough maids around her now, counting the spring, summer, autumn and winter that already exist in the East Palace Mansion, and the late sunshine that has appeared now, there are already six personal maids.

Shen Qiwu thought about it for a long time and felt that it was time to handle Huan'er's marriage. has been tossing in the south for so long, and now that she has returned to the capital, there is naturally no reason for Huan'er's marriage to be delayed any longer.

And now that she has become the queen, Shen Qiwu felt very uncomfortable when Huan'er served her in the palace again.

This lovely girl has been with her for more than ten years, and all her youth has been given to Shen Qiwu, if she doesn't even return the most fundamental freedom to Huan'er, how can Shen Qiwu be worthy of her.

Shen Qiwu thought for a long time, so he called Huan'er.

"Huan'er, it's time for you to pursue your own happiness."

Huan'er looked at her and replied as she should: "Huan'er's happiness is to serve Miss." ”

There was no one else here, only the master and servant. (To be continued.) )
