The concubine heard that the emperor was going to call the second prince to the southwest after the year? This is an errand, and the second prince is also an adult. Concubine Jin smiled.

"He's young, but it's good to be able to get things done. Let's hope you don't go wrong. Concubine Qian said with a smile.

"The second prince is smart, how could he be wrong." Concubine Shun gave a meaningless compliment.

Concubine Qian thanked her.

Shen Chuliu didn't speak, and Concubine Li didn't answer. Strange embarrassing.

In Shen Chuliu's eyes, it is impossible to forgive the second prince in this life, and the best thing is to be like this now, not to interfere with each other.

If she doesn't take the initiative to pit him, even if she is kind.

Concubine Qian must be aware of this.

As for Concubine Li, she has been working against Feng's mother and son since she entered the palace, it was because of her family before, but now, she is used to it.

However, Concubine Li and Concubine Jing don't pick up the stubble, so it's not good for the people below to cross them and boast.

To put it bluntly, in terms of favor alone, Concubine Qian, Concubine Shun, and Concubine Jing are not as good as a Concubine Jing.

Among the nine concubines, Ning Zhaorong has no children, Su Xiuyi has no children, and Yan Xiurong has not yet given birth and has few words. Zhen Chongyi will not praise the second prince.

Isn't that no one boasting about it?

It made Concubine Qian embarrassed.

The queen came out to relieve her.

It didn't matter, so they all dispersed early.

As for the little concubines below, Shen Chuliu doesn't take it seriously. After all, it has nothing to do with her.

After entering the wax moon, Li Zhaoyi came out.

She didn't dare to challenge Shen Chuliu directly, but openly and secretly, she felt that the Shen family was no longer good.

Now she can still lead the troops directly, isn't her father in the harem?

Shen Chuliu doesn't care about this, there is still a month to celebrate the New Year, and she has a lot of things to arrange here.

This year, the sixth prince has jumped a step in height, and she is busy designing beautiful clothes for her children. Who cares what a fool Li Zhaoyi does.

At the end of the year in a blink of an eye, Shen Zhong came back in time for the twentieth month of the lunar month.

On the twenty-sixth day, I entered the palace to meet Concubine Jing. Of course, the day I returned to the imperial city, I would first meet the emperor.

In the Yufu Palace, Shen Chuliu looked at his eldest uncle, whom he hadn't seen for many years, and felt strange for a while.

When she was a child, this eldest uncle was in northern Xinjiang.

Over the years, it has been rare to return to Beijing, and it is rare to come back.

If she was walking down the street, she wouldn't recognize her.

So it's a little embarrassing to reminisce about the past, but fortunately, they are all stable people.

After sending Shen Zhong away, Shen Chuliu said: "To put it mildly, I and the third uncle are rare, but I think that one should not have much overall situation with the Liang family." But this is different for the eldest uncle. It's the same as the eldest aunt, not a family, not a family. ”

Qi Su smiled: "Isn't it, Scholar Shen is a shrewd person when he looks at it." Grandpa is old, and now that Lord Shen is back, he is just in time to stand up to the family. ”

Shen Zhong is in his fifties, and he can be a Beijing official for 20 years.

In the past twenty years, the next generation of the Shen family has also been able to gain a foothold.

Shen Chuliu smiled: "It's good." ”

Shen Zhong returned to the house and went to the courtyard of the Song family.

Although the husband and wife are not together all the year round, their relationship is okay, or in other words, they cooperate well.

It's also considered to be mutually satisfied.

"Niangniang is exactly as you say." Shen Zhong sighed: "The second brother was like this back then. ”

"It's rare that the mother is a person who takes the overall situation into account. I was really worried about her because of Jasper......" Song shook his head.

"yes, rare. Over the years, my wife has also worked hard inside and outside. Now that I'm back, my wife can be more relaxed. Shen Zhong said.

Song was embarrassed: "It's naturally okay when the master comes back." The old lady's body is also good, and when the New Year is over, she will be fine. ”

"The third brother's bones are not cold, and we still need to take good care of the third room. Qingling will also be transferred elsewhere at that time, and Beijiang will let it go. Shen Zhong sighed.

After all, he has been in the army for many years, and he is reluctant to leave.

Song nodded in response, she didn't mind taking care of the third room.

To put it bluntly, she doesn't like people to fight with her for power, but she is in power, and she doesn't mind taking care of the third room.

And now, the Liang family has no support to fight.

In the harem, Shen Chuliu's life is as usual. The New Year is coming soon, and her mind is on this.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs has sent things to the past one after another, all for the New Year. Some are deserved, some are rewarded.

It's probably because of the Shen family's sensibility, so Concubine Jing's reward this year is very special.

The few new entrants to the palace are beyond their reach.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, on the twenty-ninth day, it snowed.

There is little snow in the imperial city, but this one is not small, which is very inconvenient.

During the Chinese New Year this year, there is one more seat in Taiji Palace, and it is Shen Zhong's.

However, the Li family is more preferential this year, after all, his family is going to have an imperial concubine.

and the Wu family, the Duke of Funing, who was married to the eldest princess, also sat higher than before.

In previous years, the promotion that everyone was waiting for is still the same this year.

Actually, everyone guessed it.

The first is that Mei Jieyu was promoted to become Mei Chongyuan.

The second is Rong Jieyu's promotion to Rong Xiuyuan.

The third is Yu Jieyu's promotion to Yu Chongrong.

Xu Yunu was promoted to Xu Baolin.

This time, there was only one Zhaoyuan left in the position of the nine concubines.

Speaking of which, Rong Xiuyuan is an old man in the Qiandi after all, and he should be promoted. Yu Chongrong has been very low-key for many years. Although he has never been pampered, he gave birth to four princesses.

As for Mei Chongyuan, after all, she is pregnant, and now she is promoted to the throne and is promoted again after birth.

The three of them thanked each other, and they were all very happy.

Everyone looked at it coldly, this Mei Chongyuan actually maintained a good figure.

Other than that, no one else has been promoted.

"Mei Chongyuan's birth is said to be a prince." Concubine Li whispered and bit her ears with Shen Chuliu.

"Really? Meddlesome. Shen Chuliu looked over, but he couldn't see anything.

"It's a good thing. Speaking of which, Yan Xiu has more favors than her, but she became pregnant first. Concubine Li looked at Yan Xiu again: "This one, it's also a hidden one." ”

Shen Chuliu laughed: "Isn't this normal? You and I are watching the drama now, but you don't know how others looked at you and me back then? ”

Concubine Li laughed: "It's a pity that there are fewer and fewer people who looked at you and me back then." ”

Shen Chuliu also smiled.

The emperor was talking to his courtiers, and when he saw Shen Chuliu smiling here, he called her.

"Concubine Jing, what are you talking about? So happy? ”

Shen Chuliu smiled again and stood up: "The concubine is talking to Concubine Li." Let's take a look at the New Year's time now, it's lively. I actually remembered that when the concubine was in the palace for the first time, because she was sitting far away, she didn't know much about the emperor. Now you can see it clearly. ”

"Oh? Is the concubine disgusted that I asked the concubine to sit far away? Qi Yixiu said with a smile.

"That's not it, the concubines care about the emperor. If you sit far away, you can't see it, but if you sit close, you can see it, the emperor is full of water, and a thousand cups are not drunk. As she spoke, she also raised her glass: "The concubine respects the emperor and the queen's mother, and I hope we can celebrate the New Year like this every year." ”
