Two full days passed, and Shen Shu still couldn't see Chu Yi.

Just like when Liu Xing was there before, every day at dusk, Shadow Six would bring news from outside.

Naturally, there were also things that Chu Yi asked him to bring to Shen Shu.

On the first day, it was a picture.

Shen Shu recognized that it was the map of Yunjiang.

Chu Yi's fief was originally not in Yunjiang, and when he heard Feiyun's meaning, Chu Yi seemed to be planning to ask for an order to go to Yunjiang to become a vassal.

This map is Chu Yi's promise to Shen Shu.

Shen Shu looked at this map, just imagining that after she married Chu Yi, she would be able to settle in Yunbian City...... My heart is like sugar wrapped in honey, and the corners of my mouth don't even rise.

Selfishly, Shen Shu is very excited and yearning.

However, when I thought of this promise, it was only when Chu Yi gave up everything and exchanged it with the emperor, and this sweetness was mixed with a little sourness.

On the second day, Chu Yi asked Ying Liu to send a white jade polished orchid hairpin.

The delicate carving, like a real orchid, blooms on the white jade.

Picking up this hosta, Shen Shu recognized it at a glance that this was the hairpin that Chu Yi gave to her by Lu Tao when she had just entered Beijing to attend the flower banquet in the Chengen Mansion.

"You're just a ...... I will give you my life if I have to marry someone in this life...... There are also those hairpin clothes, all of which I chose by myself, and this orchid hairpin was polished by my own hands. If you want to pay me back in silver, give me back my life, and the heart that you have spent on these garments and hairpins, shall you also give me back in silver? ”

At that time, when she returned the hairpin to Chu Yi, the words he said seemed to still linger in her ears.

When Shen Shu heard this, she was at a loss and fled.

I didn't expect that now, I can put it in my hair with a smile......

Early in the morning of the third day.

The emperor's decree of marriage finally descended to the Shen family.

On that day, Shen Shu returned to the Shen Mansion from the county lord's mansion and told Shen Chong and Mrs. Jiang what Chu Yi had done.

Even though Shen Chong and Mrs. Jiang still think that King Yi is not a good match for their daughter.

However, for Shen Shu's sake, it is difficult for Shen Chong and Mrs. Jiang to say a "no".

With the arrival of the holy decree, the news that King Yi was going to leave Beijing after the big wedding and become a vassal also spread inside and outside the government and the opposition as if he had grown wings.

The emperor, who had withdrawn his military power, immediately issued several holy decrees, drastically removing and replacing the generals of the forbidden army and the military department.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is to cut off the wings of King Yi in the army.

Up and down the government and the opposition, there is a wind and cranes, and the grass and trees are all soldiers,

As a military general, the Shen family inevitably feels that the atmosphere in the capital is full of weirdness.

Different from the emperor's attitude, the queen gave many rewards.

According to the usual practice, Shen Shu had to hand over the sign and enter the palace on a certain day to thank the emperor and queen in person.

However, less than half an hour after receiving the marriage order, Shen Shu received the queen's will to summon her.

Because Zhang's mother personally brought someone to invite, Shen Shu hurriedly put on makeup, and didn't even have time to inform Ying Liu to tell Chu Yi, so she followed Zhang's mother into the Vermilion Bird Gate.

At this moment, it was the time when the courtiers were discussing in the Taiji Palace, and few people moved around the palace.

Unexpectedly Shen Shu——

Mother Zhang took her and did not go to Kunning Palace, but turned left and right to a side hall.

Although Shen Shu has entered the palace many times, he is not familiar with the route of the harem.

She only vaguely felt that this side hall was close to the imperial garden.

"The county lord, please follow the slave and maid to the second floor."

Mother Zhang took Shen Shu to the second floor, walked directly to the window facing south, with a smile in her eyebrows, but she said meaningfully: "The queen mother, please wait here, she will come in a while, if the county lord is fine, you can drink tea here, and there is the imperial garden outside, and you can also enjoy the flowers." ”

After saying this, without waiting for Shen Shu to ask more, Zhang's mother ordered someone to serve tea, and then took someone downstairs to leave.

Shen Shu looked around, this was an attic, the windows on the south side were wide open, and the smell of flowers came in from outside.

Thinking about Zhang's mother's words, she had doubts, stood up, walked to the window, and looked out-

The Imperial Garden is full of flowers and is beautiful.

But Shen Shu's gaze did not stay between those flowers and trees, but looked into the distance.

Strange to say, although this loft is next to the Imperial Garden, you can see the front yard of Injugung Palace.

I haven't seen it for a while, and today's Renshou Palace is no longer the lively appearance of the palace maids and attendants, and it looks very desolate.

On the steps, not even a palace person on duty could be seen.

Shen Shu was about to retract her gaze, when she suddenly saw something, her apricot eyes narrowed slightly.

I saw two men walking out of the main hall of Renshou Palace, one after the other.

The middle-aged man walking in front was about forty years old, tall and burly, which made Shen Shu a little familiar.

And the person who followed the middle-aged man, even if he was too far away, Shen Shu couldn't see his face clearly, but he was no stranger.

It was the one she had just seen in Huguo Temple three days ago - Rui Wang Chu Zhan.

Chu Zhan followed the middle-aged man, following in the same direction, looking a little respectful.

This made Shen Shu strange-

Chu Zhan is the king of Rui, deeply favored by the emperor, and in today's court and the opposition, except for the emperor's own princes, he has the most honorable status.

How could he appear in Renshou Palace, still following behind others, and still making such a gesture?

While thinking about it, the footsteps of someone going upstairs sounded from behind Shen Shu.

She turned around, and only had time to see the phoenix hairpin between the people's hair, so she hurriedly gathered her eyes, bent her knees, and waited at the staircase to greet the visitors.

"Flat."

The queen went upstairs alone, walked straight to the window, turned her back to Shen Shu, faced the direction of Renshou Palace, and asked straight to the point: "You can see it at the window?" ”

Shen Shu was shocked, and immediately understood, the queen asked Mother Zhang to lead her here today.

I'm afraid it has something to do with the two people she saw just now.

"The courtiers only recognize King Xiaorui, as for the other ......"

The queen sneered, and said meaningfully: "Both of them are King Rui. ”

Shen Shu looked up in surprise and looked at the queen's back in disbelief.

Chu Zhan, the King of Rui, attacked the title of King Lao Rui.

"Both are the kings" means...... The middle-aged man walking in front is the "deceased" Lao Rui Wang?!

"Didn't Lao Rui Wang already become a teacher of the Western Hungarian Kingdom? How dare he come to the capital, and how could he appear in Renshou Palace like this? Shen Shu exhaled in a low voice.

These words finally made the queen turn around.

The queen's eyes burned and looked at Shen Shu, with an eagerness that Shen Shu couldn't understand: "As soon as the prince was locked up, he appeared. He said that when he escaped death and went to Xihung, and later became a national teacher by chance, it was all because of the crown prince. Scold...... The crown prince was only a few years old at the time. ”

As she spoke, she took two steps towards Shen Shu, as if talking to herself, and as if asking, "Why do you say all this is so coincidental?" You were also involved in the battle outside the Guanwai, do you think...... Could all this be a conspiracy of King Rui? ”

Shen Shu's pupils shrank, and she suddenly looked at the queen's face-

From the time the queen went upstairs to this moment, this was the first time she could see the queen's face clearly.

Shen Shu couldn't care less about delving into the meaning of the queen's words.

Because at this moment—

The center of the queen's eyebrows is impressively marked with three complete incense ash marks.

The three incense ash imprints were like a life-urging charm, silently telling Shen Shu -

The queen in front of her, Chu Yi's biological mother, only has three days of life at most!
