After Chen Wenhui entered the palace, she first met the queen mother, accompanied by Chen Wenfeng, went to the queen mother's bedroom, greeted the queen mother, and then went to the palace next door to the queen mother to meet the queen mother and Princess Huichuan.

Shi Yuesi became a concubine, but it seemed that the whole person was much more relaxed, every time she saw Shi Yuesi before, even when she was most favored by the first emperor, when she became the imperial concubine, she was always cautious. However, when I saw her this time, she was much less cautious and cautious, replaced by a kind of comfort and grace. Of course, it's still very young and beautiful.

Thinking about the use of the word youth and beauty on a concubine, it is a little inappropriate, but it is actually very appropriate, because although Shi Yuesi is a concubine, her age is only in her twenties, if it was in Chen Wenhui's previous life, it would be the age when she had just graduated from college, and it was the time to squander her youth, but now she is a widow. A noble widow.

When Chen Wenhui was feeling sorry for Shi Yuesi, Shi Yuesi happily pulled Chen Wenhui to her Xinuan Pavilion to talk. The whole person does not look like a court lady at all, but like an innocent little girl.

Shi Yuesi entered the Xinuan Pavilion, let the palace maids serve tea, and after the snacks, he retired the palace people. No one was in front of her, Shi Yuesi was even more unrestrained, got down from her position, came to Chen Wenhui's side, pulled Chen Wenhui's hand and asked: "I heard that you also encountered danger when you went to Southern Xinjiang, and the princess of Southern Xinjiang actually dared to think about Lord Zhao, but is it true?" ”

For such a gossip Shi Yuesi, Chen Wenhui couldn't laugh or cry. In desperation, I had to say it again.

Shi Yuesi listened with relish, and from time to time she had to eat some snacks such as sour plums to cheer up, and when Chen Wenhui finished speaking, she said: "This princess of southern Xinjiang, and the queen of southern Xinjiang, are really shameless." You should give them a little bit of hardship. ”

Chen Wenhui smiled and asked, "I haven't seen you for half a year." I didn't expect that I haven't seen you for half a year, and you are not the imperial concubine who favors the harem, and now you have become a concubine, and you have also moved from the gorgeous palace to the Suxi Palace next to this Cining Palace. How's it going? ”

Shi Yuesi said indifferently: "I think it's more comfortable to live here." In the past, the palace was magnificent. The people in the palace are flattered, and the emperor is also pampered, and things are sent like flowing water every day. However, at that time. It's like I'm living on the edge of a cliff. It's like walking on thin ice in the abyss. Every day. Every moment is terrified. Looking at the palace, there are many people who envy me and scold me, but there are even more people who hate me. I have to be on guard at all times, against them from harming me, against Huichuan from them harming me. ”

"At that time, I really had to sleep with my eyes open. Also, watching me be favored, but, over the years in the harem, I know best what favor is, and I am ready to fall out of favor at every moment, that feeling, you can't imagine. Haven't you noticed that my drawing skills haven't improved at all in the past few years? Although I have the best brushes, paints, papers, and the best paintings of the previous masters, I still haven't made any progress. ”

"At that time, my heart was not quiet, but now, how long has it been, I am hiding in this Suxi Palace, watching the new emperor's harem fight, I just think it is lively. I live a good life on weekdays, with Inovance, every day is to think about eating, pondering my painting, I think this painting skills have improved a lot. I'll show you a few of my most recent masterpieces for you to see. ”

After speaking, Shi Yuesi went to the bookcase next to her with great interest to take a few works and show them to Chen Wenhui. Chen Wenhui looked carefully, there were pictures of wind and snow, plum blossoms, and spring flowers. Nothing else, the plum blossom picture is especially spiritual, and the spring flower picture is also very vibrant.

I have to admit that Shi Yuesi's painting skills have really improved.

Chen Wenhui said: "Your painting skills have really improved. However, I've been busy lately, and my painting skills have regressed. ”

Shi Yuesi smiled happily and said, "You are a busy person, how can I compare to me as an idler?" I eat enough now, sleep soundly, and everything else is fine except being trapped in this palace and not being able to go out. I don't have to worry about someone harming me anymore, and I don't have to worry about someone harming Inovance anymore. Because, the current palace concubines are all the palace concubines of the new emperor, and according to their generation, they are all my daughters-in-law, and they have their own share of friendship with me, where will they harm my mother-in-law? ”

Chen Wenhui listened to it interestingly and said: "Where is there a young mother-in-law like you? I'm afraid you're younger than the queen's. ”

Shi Yuesi said proudly: "No matter how young I am, this share, the generations are all here, and I am also their mother-in-law." Even the emperor must respect me. I don't have to be afraid of the emperor's face anymore, because I am no longer a favorite concubine in the harem, I have become the emperor's concubine, haha, when I think about it, I am happy. ”

Chen Wenhui thought about it for a while, and said: "It's okay this time, you will never fall out of favor, but, at such a young age, will you feel lonely?" ”

Shi Yuesi didn't care and said, "It's not lonely. There are also people in my palace who keep coming to stutter. After all, I'm a concubine, or a noble concubine, and my position is only one line worse than the queen mother. All should be fed and clothed, and they are all the best. The emperor, the queen is afraid of being said to be unfilial. Also, don't I still have Inovance? Everyone in the world knows that Huichuan will be the eldest princess in the future, and she is a high-ranking power, which can influence the front and back courts, and there are many people who befriend us. Many people are thinking about coming to the cold stove at this time. As a result, I became a hot stove here. ”

Chen Wenhui laughed out loud when she said this.

Shi Yuesi whispered, "I'll tell you something again." Our princess mansion in Huichuan was built when the emperor was in the first place. It is very close to the palace city, the location is good, the area is large, and it is the former merger of the two princes' mansions. It's been under construction for a few years, and it's beautiful, and although it's not as good as your county lord's mansion, it's not bad. It's much stronger than this Suki Palace. ”

This Chen Wenhui also knows.

Shi Yuesi continued: "When the first emperor was here, he loved Huichuan very much, and rewarded things every day, so I had a lot of good things in my hands, some of which you had seen before. Later, I moved, and the place here is too small to fit, and besides, I am now a widow, so naturally it is not good to use those gorgeous things, so I will take those things to the princess's mansion. But it's worth a lot. ”

Chen Wenhui laughed when she heard it and said, "Although they are all treasures, they can't be exchanged for money." ”

Shi Yuesi smiled and said, "Are you not a cannibal to me?" I still understand this. I kept all the treasures in those things. Some are ordinary objects, and some are things that have been offered by the nobles and courtiers outside the palace in recent years. I'll keep all the good things, and I'll entrust all the general items to the Qi family for auction. Isn't the Qi family also a princess's family? The princesses of Da Chu are all very grouped. They've been helping me with this for the past few months. ”

Chen Wenhui didn't expect Shi Yuesi to be such a good person.

Shi Yuesi said: "In addition to these things, the emperor also gave a lot of shops before, including Shanghai City, Suzhou City, and most of them in Beijing. There are also a few big Huangzhuang, and the production is good. It was also given to several workshops, all of which were staffed by craftsmen from the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The income is also good. I don't want to talk to Huichuan that there is a supply from the palace, but without this part of the palace, we can live very rich by relying on these shops, Zhuangzi, and workshops. So, now I don't need any cash in my hand. ”

Chen Wenhui listened all the time, and by this time, she understood what Shi Yuesi meant by saying this.

Shi Yuesi said, "You probably guessed what I meant. I want to give you this cash and help me run it, whether it's in the South Seas or the Northwest, whether it's buying land or buying a house, it's okay, anyway, I don't know these things, you can just help me do it. ”

Chen Wenhui smiled and said, "Shouldn't your mother's family help you do this?" ”

Shi Yuesi said: "Don't you know my mother's family? If I hadn't been desperate at my mother's house, would I have tried my best to enter the palace? Can it be trusted? I still have money for these things, and if I hand them over, I'm afraid I won't even have a bone residue left. If it's just for myself, I'll give them it, and I'm not a money-grubbing person. However, Inovance has a great future in the future, although she is still young, she is an assertive person. ”

"I thought that she would need money to do things in the future, so it would be better to prepare more. I'm most relieved to put you there. Even if you can't make money, it's better than being taken away by my mother's family and the people in this palace. ”

For Shi Yuesi's trust, Chen Wenhui is still very moved. Thinking about Shi Yuesi's situation, it is still very sad. My mother's family is like that, my stepmother is eyeing her, and my father is unreliable. In the palace, she has lost the big backer of the first emperor and has become a widow, with an embarrassing identity, although the world is big, there are really not many people who can be trusted. In order to plan for the future, she wants to save more money and find a reliable friend.

Obviously, finding herself is her smart. Chen Wenhui immediately said: "Okay, since you trust me, I will take these over, and when Princess Huichuan is older, I will give her the money." ”

Shi Yuesi immediately smiled.

Chen Wenhui asked: "It's just that your money is cash or silver bills?" Shall you transfer it to me? How many are there? ”

Shi Yuesi happily walked to a small cabinet, took out a small clip from a secret compartment, and when she opened it, there was a stack of silver tickets inside, and she said: "I have already asked the people of the Qi family to deposit the money in your Dachu Bank for me, and exchanged it for silver tickets, a total of 1.2 million taels of silver." ”

Chen Wenhui was taken aback. How many of them? (To be continued......)
