Mid-Autumn Night Conspiracy [03]

The fourth lady, Chu, felt that it was not appropriate, and she persuaded: "Mother, daughter-in-law thinks it's better for us to keep a low profile." After all, the second uncle also said that he wanted to keep a low profile, and he didn't go out to socialize, and no one was allowed to give heavy gifts, so it can be seen that it is better to pay attention. ”

The old lady immediately felt a little unhappy, but she couldn't say anything, it was true, after all, the Song Guogong Mansion that people had always been extravagant was very low-key.

She had no choice but to mutter: "Then forget it, it's not bad for our family to enjoy the moon and eat wine at home." ”

Shen Cang also said before that the situation has been a little delicate recently, and the court, the royal interior, the harem, etc., are all intertwined, and because the emperor has not set up a prince, the situation is a little tense now.

Especially on the eldest prince's side, there seems to be something unusual, I don't know why Lu Dao was reprimanded by the queen, and the emperor directly asked him to think about it behind closed doors and not be allowed to go out.

Immediately, some of the Great Princes faction felt that this was a manifestation of the emperor's dislike of Xiao Che, and it was a harbinger that the emperor might exclude Xiao Che.

Even if he is the eldest son, the emperor may not necessarily make him the crown prince.

Standing up and standing virtuous, to put it bluntly, it is still the emperor's meaning, even if the ministers can influence it, they can't interfere too much, otherwise they will annoy the emperor and will be liquidated one by one in the future.

Therefore, Shen Cang has been living in a simple house recently, unless he is sitting in the yamen of the court, and then he goes to the Dabei Temple, Longyin Temple and other places to listen to the presiding over the Buddhist scriptures, and rarely meets with colleagues, let alone this kind of festival.

Big festivals are generally a good time for colleagues to visit each other, make friends, and win over, especially at such a sensitive time, those who form gangs and factions have to take advantage of Shen Cang's loopholes.

In order to put an end to it, Shen Cang has long advertised that he does not invite guests and friends during the holidays, but only celebrates the festival reunion with his family, so that no one has to disturb him, otherwise he will not give face, which will be too hurtful and angry.

Shen Cang is already like this, and these women in their backyard naturally have to pay attention to it.

Mrs. Liu was originally trying to please her mother-in-law, and she also knew that her mother-in-law would definitely think about it and refuse when the time came, and the Min family had always intervened in something and made a little cheaper, but she didn't expect this Chu family to come and mix, which was really annoying.

The masters gathered, and the aunt didn't come forward, and she couldn't see Aunt He's indifferent and gentle face, and Mrs. Liu felt that it was a little more comfortable, so she didn't care about it with the Chu family.

Everyone talked and laughed in a friendly manner, and Mrs. Liu instructed people to prepare melons, fruits, snacks, etc.

In the evening, soon the emperor in the palace sent a reward, headed by the old lady, leading everyone to put incense on the table to thank him, and then gave the reward to the eunuch red envelope to send them away, and the family celebrated the festival together.

They are not noble families, and they do not have to pay tribute to the palace.

Thinking of the ladies of those noble families always show off that they can send gifts to the palace, although it is a burden, but it is also an honor, after all, this kind of good thing ordinary officials and eunuchs can't get the glory of spending money, only the royal relatives of the noble family can enjoy this kind of treatment.

Although Mrs. Liu is the county lord, she is already married to the Shen family, and she is Mrs. Xiangye, so naturally she wants to marry a chicken with a chicken, so she doesn't have to bother with that thought.

And at this moment, Shen Mingzhu was listening to Liubo's report, which was all from Hou Shou and them, about Xiao Che.

Xiao Che was reprimanded and grounded by the saint for inexplicable reasons, and Shen Mingzhu felt that it might be because of the incident in Shenjiawan.
