Chapter 280: No Heart

Bai said: "In the future, once the emperor dies and the new emperor succeeds to the throne, the emperor's harem concubines, who have no children, will enter the royal temple, and even be buried. However, Princess Huichuan's situation is special, she is too young, I am afraid that the emperor and the crown prince are not worried that she will leave the palace at such a young age, and she should stay in the palace, so that the princess of Emperor Shi will also stay, and she should be a companion with the future queen mother. Being an imperial concubine and having a respected status can be regarded as a good ending. ”

Chen Wenhui was not surprised at all when she heard this, but she was a little sad in her heart. How old is Shi Yuesi this year? In her early twenties, if she had graduated from college in her previous life, she might not have graduated from college, but now she is facing the situation of being a widow. Although she can live with fine clothes and food, and her status in the palace is respected, she no longer needs to compete for favor, as long as she can raise her daughter with peace of mind, Chen Wenhui really doesn't feel very comfortable letting a girl in her twenties live like a dead heart.

When the Bai family saw Chen Wenhui's appearance, he understood and said, "Speaking of which, Shihuang Guifei is still the best. There is no need to go out of the palace, the status is respected, if Princess Huichuan grows up and marries out of the palace in the future, she will also be the eldest princess, take the Shihuang concubine out, and still live a glorious and rich life. But the other concubines can't. By the way, Concubine Zhao De, Concubine Chen Guifei, and Concubine Chen Shufei are also lucky, and now they have become monks, although their lives are harder, they are not angry, and their lives are not in danger. But what about the other concubines? Not so lucky. For example, Li Guiren, who entered the palace together back then, is still living like oil in the harem. Because she was not favored and did not contribute to the family, the Li family has abandoned her, and what awaits her in the future may be martyrdom. ”

Chen Wenhui's face turned pale, this is really cruel.

Chen Yuanheng hurriedly diverted the topic and said, "We don't care about these harem matters." Let's talk about Hui'er's trip to the northwest. ”

Zhao Chongyi hurriedly said: "It's not in a hurry to go to the northwest now, how do you have to go after the New Year, it's autumn now, and the capital doesn't feel that the northwest is now dripping into ice." It's not easy to walk on the road. In winter, there is basically no war, and there is no business. So, we're going to do it after the spring of next year. This is some time. The prince said. I don't have to do anything. It's good to accompany Wen Hui everywhere to have fun. Hui'er has been serving the country since she was eight years old, both for disaster relief and to help build the city of Shanghai. Later, he was the manager of Nanyang, and it was hard to stay in Nanyang for so many years, so I just took this opportunity to relax. ”

Chen Wenhui smiled and said, "The prince is good at doing favors. ”

Zhao Chongyi also cracked his mouth and laughed.

Chen Wenhui said: "Father, mother, Chongyi and I plan to use this period of time to go to various places in the south of the Yangtze River, and come to enjoy the scenery of various places, after all, it is about to enter winter, the north is too cold, not fun, or the south is warmer." Second, if Nanyang is to be built and the Wa Kingdom is to be occupied, a large number of people from Dachu are needed, and I want to use this period of time to go to the south and recruit some people. ”

Bai Shi smiled and said: "You are not from the Xiao Chen family now, you are from the Zhao family, where to go, as long as Chongyi is willing to accompany you, what else do we have to say?" ”

Chen Wenhui didn't expect that she had been going out to play with her mother's request, and it was so easy to solve it, and she became happy.

Chen Wenjun said: "You guys have fun. In the future, if I go to the northwest, it will be very hard. But we can't stay in the capital anymore, our overseas territories are complicated, and there are too many things. Chongyi, you have to hurry up and go and say to Zhongyigong, I hope we can start sooner. ”

Zhao Chongyi hurriedly said: "Don't worry, I'll go talk to my eldest brother tomorrow." ”

At this time, the maid came in and said that Mingzhu had come with the children. Bai was very happy, took Chen Wenhui and Wan Meizhen, Mei Ying found the good spirits, made them snow, got up together and went to the back garden, where it was ready, these ladies took the children to the garden to enjoy the osmanthus and chrysanthemums, and when they were tired, they went to the place where the banquet was set up to eat wine and feast. As for the men, they had already gone to the outer courtyard under the leadership of Chen Yuanheng to play chess with the Qingke, chat and drink tea, as for eating, they did not go with the female dependents, but opened a table alone, and they were also in the garden, but on the rockery, the autumn was high and refreshing, and they looked high and far away, which was very atmospheric.

Chen Wenhui and Lang Xue, Zhao Chongyi had been at Xiao Chen's house until they returned to their mansion after dinner. The next day, Zhao Chongyi went back to the Zhongyi Mansion to talk to Zhao Chongli about going to the Wa Kingdom. Zhao Chongli was overjoyed, but he couldn't do it alone, so the two brothers went out of the city together to the farm in the western suburbs, like Lao Zhongyigong to ask for instructions.

Rongxue went to the Han family to go to the Han family's girl to enjoy the osmanthus party.

Chen Wenhui was idle, she finished breakfast, sent away the snow, dressed up, and went into the palace alone. Yesterday, Chen Wenhui had already handed over a sign to enter the palace to visit the queen and the princess Shihuang.

Because Chen Wenhui's trip was mainly to visit Shihuang Guifei, when she visited the queen, she was not empty-handed, and gave the queen a string of precious gem bracelets, the queen was very happy, and appreciated Chen Wenhui to eat tea, knowing that Chen Wenhui wanted to go to catch up with Shihuang Guifei, so she didn't stay longer and let her go to Shi Yuesi.

Chen Wenhui came to the palace of Shihuang Guifei and found that Shi Yuesi was already waiting at the palace gate, Chen Wenhui couldn't help but be very moved, for so many years, there are many sisters around her, but there are really few people who really retain this feeling, one is the pearl, and the other is the Shi Yuesi in front of him.

Chen Wenhui stepped forward and saluted first. Shi Yuesi held it and said, "What kind of etiquette do you have to do here?" Why are you here now, I'm in a hurry. Come with me into my palace and talk. ”

Chen Wenhui was not polite to her, and followed Shi Yuesi into the palace together. Shi Yuesi did not lead Chen Wenhui into the palatial main hall, but directly took Chen Wenhui to sit in the warm pavilion.

Chen Wenhui took a look and found that this warm pavilion is not big, that is, two wide places, but it is very neatly cleaned up, exquisite, from the furnishings to the chairs, the curtains are very exquisite, the most rare thing is that in the middle of the two houses, separated by a crystal curtain, it looks like a dream, very beautiful.

Chen Wenhui said appreciatively: "The layout here is really luxurious, this is the royal atmosphere, it can be seen how important you are in the emperor's heart." The emperor really spoils you. ”

Shi Yuesi raised her hand and sent away the palace people who followed her, leaving only her big palace maid Cuiyu to serve. She said, "There is nothing that cannot be said in front of you. You see that I am very favored, the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty know that I am favored, our Shi family was originally a small official family, and now it is also hot, the stepmother of the family, those brothers and sisters, and the clansmen are all rising. All the concubines in the palace are envious and jealous of me. However, I know the real situation best. I have served the emperor for so many years, and I also gave birth to Princess Huichuan for the emperor, but the emperor does not have me in his heart. For him, the meaning of my existence is that of Huichuan's biological mother. ”

Chen Wenhui was stunned for a moment, she always thought that the emperor favored Shi Yuesi, but who knows, Shi Yuesi said such a paragraph.

Shi Yuesi looked at Chen Wenhui's appearance, smiled and said, "There's nothing strange about this. Not only do I know, but the queen also knows. The emperor has only one person in his heart, from beginning to end. I saw Ying's back then, it was really a city and a country, Wan Guifei was such a big beauty, and compared with her, it looked extremely rough. No wonder the queen mother never really regarded Wan Guifei as an opponent back then. Because she is a person who has seen the Ying family for a long time, she knows that the great beauty Wan Guifei, who is praised by the world, has never occupied a position in the emperor's heart at all. Hmph, think about it, Wan Guifei doesn't occupy a place in the emperor's heart, what am I? ”

Chen Wenhui didn't know what to say.

Shi Yuesi seemed to hold back for a long time, but now her best friend came, and she wanted to finish all at once, she said: "Am I a tens of thousands of concubines with a comparable appearance, or a concubine with a body like ten thousand concubines?" Not to mention comparing with Wan Guifei, there is no way to compare with Chen Guifei, Chen Shufei, and Zhao Defei. I'm too ordinary, and I'm really too ordinary in this palace full of beauties. However, why can I get such favor from the emperor? ”

Chen Wenhui thought about it, Shi Yuesi is also a beauty alone, but the beauty of this level is two or three grades worse than Wan Guifei, and even Zhao Defei and the like can't compare.

Shi Yuesi said with sarcasm on her face: "Look at me here, this crystal curtain is a rare treasure, such a big hanging, all of them are so crystal clear, it is impossible to get it." There is also this curtain of yarn, which is sold for hundreds of taels and one horses outside, and it is used as an ordinary curtain in my place. There are also these pearls and jade trees, antique calligraphy and paintings, etc., which is not priceless. But the emperor gave it to me. However, I was not happy. I'm really unhappy, because the emperor didn't do this because he liked me, in fact, every time he came to my palace, he didn't take a serious look at my face, I dare say, in the past few years, he didn't remember what I looked like. He doted on me because of Inovance. He loves Huichuan because he looks very similar to Ying's, and he thinks that Huichuan is the reincarnation of Ying's. ”

Chen Wenhui couldn't help but say: "The theory of reincarnation is nonsense. Does the emperor also believe it? ”

Shi Yuesi sneered and said, "Others think it's nonsense, but the emperor believes it." Besides, Wen Hui, I've always wanted to ask you, it was the medicine you gave me that allowed me to get pregnant, but why did the Huichuan I gave birth to look like the Win family? (To be continued......)
