Chapter 66: The Princess of Northern Xinjiang
"Zangzhu, Xiao Jiu, this kid is awkward, you don't want to be like him, if he doesn't have anything wrong, you just say him."
Concubine Shu didn't have anything else to do with Shen Fu, she was just worried about Shen Fu and Lin Yu, she had always been quite concerned about this pair of little mandarin ducks, and she knew that her son climbed the wall every night, but these days, the movement of climbing the wall and crossing the window is gone, her son is losing weight day after day, the girl Zangzhu is becoming more and more silent, and she is not having a good time as an elder, so she can't help but mediate.
But to her surprise, Shen Fu was not silent, and her face that had not seen a smile for a long time showed a smile that made her quite relieved at this moment, but what she didn't see was that Shen Fu's hand hidden in his sleeve had already clenched the paper ball that Lin Yu had secretly handed over.
When the first cannon of spring this year resounded through the palace, the newborn birds and beasts in the mountains and forests were restless because of spring, and the spring banquet followed.
"This white jade pipa is sent over quickly, is the tone accurate? And the strings have been maintained with ginkgo biloba oil? Go, don't delay! ”
The six bureaus in the palace are connected into a big machine, working together, rubbing shoulders, everyone is nervous and busy, Shen Fu is no exception, with the help of Aunt Su, he can still handle the affairs in hand in an orderly manner, but since Qiao Shangyi chose Shen Fu that day, Du Sile and Chu Huaiyue are like poisonous snakes lurking, always staring at Shen Fu, and now the spring banquet, but they dare not break out.
"Sister, Zhanbei has seen my sister."
As soon as Shen Fu took an official document to the palace maid of the Shangyi Bureau, Shen Yu's movement came from outside, which made Shen Fu, who was already busy, suddenly gloomy face, she was really comfortable in the palace these days, and she was about to forget that there were still beautiful snakes in the Shen family.
She raised her eyes to look at Shen Fu, and saw that she was wearing a willow green water ripple dark pattern spring shirt today, a leaf green lake pattern hibiscus skirt, and a jade butterfly on her hair, which was pretty and clear, and at the same time, Shen Yu was also looking at her sister, I have to say that my sister is not in the Shen family, she is really happy.
But this kind of pleasure didn't last long, especially when a girl surnamed Chu in the palace told her that her sister became a female official and was still in love with His Royal Highness Jiu, she felt extremely unhappy, and now that she saw it, it was even more so.
Shen Yu looked at Shen Fu, Shen Fu was wearing a Si Le official uniform today, with dignified makeup, dark clothes, and all the hair was pulled up, and he was put together in a golden filigree filled jade grinding flower trembling bead ball crown, and the often depicted willow leaf eyebrows were also changed to double swallow eyebrows, solemn and feminine, and more importantly, his sister's eyes were circulating, and her eyes were like cutting water. Love, it is clearly the posture of a real lover, this kind of appearance, she has also seen Wen Xiang.
"Are you going to the palace with your grandmother today, or are you following your father?"
Shen Fu didn't have any thoughts about the old sisters, and her subordinates didn't stop approving the papers, and Tankou asked Shen Yu about his intentions, and the charm that she cultivated in the Shangyi Bureau naturally made Shen Yu's eyes red, she curtsied and replied: "I was going to follow my grandmother, but my grandmother brought Aunt Ning here, and I took Chu Dianle's post, so I entered the palace to see my sister." ”
She said it gently and gently, Shen Fu heard this, and the movements of her subordinates were almost invisible and sluggish, and then returned to normal, but she was thinking in her heart: What does Chu Huaiyue mean by calling this girl to the palace?
"In this case, Master Fang, you have always been steady, go and accompany the second girl to walk around the palace, she is young, you carefully don't let her collide with the nobles, not to mention that there are many people in the palace today, if there are three long and two short, only you ask."
Of course, Shen Fu can't spare Shen Yu like this, she has to sit in the Shangyi Bureau to be busy now, so naturally she doesn't have much effort to stare at this girl, but she doesn't believe that Chu Huaiyue is such a scheming person, and specially invited her sister, who is not very good at dealing with her, into the palace, what kind of good intentions will it be, so she sent Fang Zhu to Shen Yu, which can be regarded as imprisonment in disguise.
"Sister, Zhanbei wants to stay and learn from her sister."
Shen Yu saw that Shen Fu was going to drive people away, so he hurriedly spoke, biting his lower lip with his teeth, quite pitiful, Shen Fu lowered his head to deal with the official document, and did not raise his eyelids: "It's because I have been in the palace for too long, so you don't even talk about the rules in front of me?" Now that I am a Salo and an official, it is also for the sake of you to be my sister to talk to you politely. ”
She moved out of her official position directly to smash people, Si Le's position did not oppress Shen Chen, it was more than enough to bully and bully Shen Yu, Shen Yu heard this, her eyes were red, and she looked at Shen Fu with tears, but now that Shen Fu is polishing in the palace, the female Shi Zhangle and the like in her palm are all subdued by her, and she is more and more resolute, how can she still eat Shen Yu's attitude?
"If you still want to be face-saving and don't want to be directly called out by me, just follow Lord Fang obediently."
Shen Yu became more and more pitiful, and the female officials passing by around looked sideways, secretly saying that this little lady of the Shen family is really bold, could it be that now that the evil star Shen Sile is in the Shen family, it is easy to speak? Ten days ago, this overly young Si Le was a thunderous means, pulling out all the nails that Du Si Le and Chu Dianle had planted, driving out the palace of those who were expelled from the palace, and those who were stripped of their official positions, but they did not leak, and now most of the people in the Shangyi Bureau were newly promoted by this Si Le.
“…… Zhanbei listened to her sister's orders. ”
Shen Fu's heart was as cold as iron, she didn't give Shen Yu any good face at all, according to what she was doing now, Shen Yu should have been thrown out of the door by her a long time ago, but she still remembered that Shen Yu was the Shen family, and the Shen family had a bad reputation, so it was easy to have an impact on her brother Quan.
Thinking of Shen Quan, Shen Fu's subordinates stagnated for a long time, and their hearts spread out their thoughts, not long ago, Brother Quan had written to the palace, saying that he had enrolled in school, and asked her not to worry, but the eldest sister was like a mother, and she and Brother Quan were in such a situation, how could she not worry?
Thinking like this, she exhaled a long turbid breath, got up and left the case, and looked at the spring light outside the window, and the new green branches were just right......
Shen Fu's mind drifted to Lin Yu, pursed his lips and smiled, not to mention that she made an appointment with someone to meet today, she spent these hours on business, and that fool didn't know how long she would wait outside, there was still a little chill at this time, and it would not be good if it was frozen: "Aunt Su, Songting, go out for a walk with me." ”
The spring banquet is from morning to night, but under the joint efforts of the six bureaus in the palace, the work of the female officials usually only takes half a day to complete, this is the lunch time, the princes and nobles, the women and ministers, have arranged a place to go, eat separately, and wait until the evening banquet begins, they will gather together, the men discuss political affairs, and the women naturally care about marriage, saying that today is the day when the Son of Heaven pulls the red line for the government and the opposition, and it is not an exaggeration.
"Princess of Northern Xinjiang, Xiao Jiu really didn't mean that, why do you want to do this?"
When Shen Fu walked to Changchun Palace, before entering the door, he saw many maids serving at the door, the number of people even exceeded the queen, she was cold, and before she could go further, the voice of the dispute between the concubines in the house had already come out, Shen Fu was vigilant for a moment, the person in the house was the princess of Northern Xinjiang, the woman who had been hearing about it since she was carving bamboo banquets.
Aunt Su said that she was a crazy woman.
"His Royal Highness the Ninth is young and ignorant, Concubine Niangniang, don't you understand? What Your Majesty Chrysostom said, are you just left behind? Or would you rather be crushed than marry a wanton mother? ”
The voice of the princess of Northern Xinjiang was full of domineering taste, Shen Fu knew that His Majesty had a golden mouth and jade words, and the one who married the daughter of the king of Northern Xinjiang as a concubine ascended the throne, but if he was not even the king of Northern Xinjiang, what else would he talk about marrying?
What's more, she really doesn't have a good impression of this woman who was slapped by her own mother, and now she has come to threaten the concubine.
"The courtiers have seen the lady concubine, the princess of Northern Xinjiang."
When Shen Fu entered the door, the maids waiting at the door gave way, after all, Shen Fu was in official uniforms, they were still white in the end, and they didn't dare to make a mistake, and as soon as Shen Fu entered the door, he directly bowed down and saluted, and the princess of Northern Xinjiang only saw a piece of Yuxue's neck, and didn't see that face, but she was still not angry: "You are bold, and you are still worried about your identity as an official lady when you enter the palace?" Is it difficult to wear this official uniform of the Shangyi Bureau in vain? ”
Speaking of the Shangyi Bureau, she stopped suddenly, her face was gloomy and stagnant, in the Shangyi Bureau, one of her nieces was Dianle, Si Le two, the Nizi of the Du family often went to the Northern Xinjiang Palace in the past, she had heard the sound, and now this one is wearing the official uniform of Si Le, and it is not the girl of the Du family......
"Lift your head up!"
She thought of the lady of the Song family who was still a thorn in her heart when she was young, and her heart was extremely depressed, and then she thought that the female official in front of her should be the daughter of the lady, and she was even more angry, and she reprimanded in a low voice, asking Shen Fu to raise her head, Concubine Shu knew that the princess of Northern Xinjiang was in the same old affair with Song Xingyun, for fear that Shen Fu would suffer, so she wanted to open her mouth to relieve the siege, but Shen Fu had already raised her head, and the princess of Northern Xinjiang who was watching dropped the teacup.
"Song, Xing, Yun!"
Shen Fu's face did not change, looking at the steaming tea on his skirt, only looking at the princess of Northern Xinjiang who was full of anger, she was a little surprised, she can now figure out why the king of Northern Xinjiang, who has few flower names, will be so obsessed with this woman, just in terms of appearance, the princess of Northern Xinjiang is gorgeous, but the charm is too much, and the color is damaged, but the years are undefeated beauty, Her Royal Highness the princess, now she looks not old, but has the charm of a young woman.
"I don't know why the princess called the slave's mother?"
When the princess of Northern Xinjiang saw Shen Fu's calm demeanor, she couldn't help but think of the lady of the Song family back then, it was clear that she was a golden branch and jade leaf, even if the woman was the daughter of the prime minister, in the final analysis, she was just a courtier, but she dared to scold her, and even slapped her in public, such a domineering posture was her expression that she couldn't ask for for so many years, and the man she liked liked liked the Song family girl because of this, but she didn't get anything.
"Concubine Shu, are you unwilling to let His Royal Highness the Ninth marry the Lady Niang, is it because of this cheap maid? Recently, there have been rumors in the palace, and some people often mention it in the Northern Xinjiang Palace, I thought it was fake, but now it seems to be true? If there is a mother, there must be a daughter, Song Xingyun was so charming back then, and he said that he was born in the Prime Minister's Mansion and relied on it, but if I am not mistaken, the head of the Song family is now a scholar, with a foxy face, he wants to climb the high branches? :”
