The summer is scorching, the capital in winter is much colder than Taixing City, but in summer it is much hotter, and Han Zexi has been in Beijing for a few years and it is still difficult to survive the summer.

He often goes to Yusheng Palace to enjoy the shade, where there is the most extensive and beautiful bamboo forest in the palace, and the heat stroke suddenly subsides when he walks through the forest.

Shen Zhujun treated him lukewarmly, and even sometimes closed the door in the study. He was angry, so he went to talk to Ke Yajie, or messed around with Ade.

But in the end, he was still irritable, and there was always a nameless fire in his heart, and he came to Yusheng Palace to cool off his heart.

On June 28, the doctor delivered the good news that Adele was pregnant. This is Han Zexi's first child, and he is happy but also a little unspeakably annoyed and disappointed.

Shen Zhujun was even more indifferent to him, even if he was happy with fish and water, he was like a cold stone and a stiff wood.

He was very aggrieved, he was the son of heaven, and he was snubbed by his wife.

In the court, due to several shocks in the army and the change of power, the old ministers were estranged from him and the new ministers did not know much about him, and the Son of Heaven, who should have been worshipped, was actually rejected by others.

He was not angry in his heart, and often went to Xinggao Pavilion to enjoy the flattering pleasure that Adele brought him.

Adele is never jealous, and on the grounds that it is inconvenient to serve the emperor when she is pregnant, she often chooses some beautiful maids to accompany Han Zexi.

Luo tent weaving mandarin ducks, brocade embroidering dragons and phoenixes, Han Zexi's heart was empty after playing.

He didn't want to kill Hu Yonggang and them, he didn't want to see the blood flowing like a river, he just wanted to kill chickens and monkeys, and wanted them to obey absolutely.

But in the end, they did not give in, and their relationship with them was stiff, and they were completely estranged from him.

In the past, you could ask Cheng Haofeng about something, but in recent months, Cheng Haofeng has not heard from him.

I also gradually felt that Gao Youquan did not consider the overall situation of the country, but he had delegated power to Gao Youquan, and the relationship between the monarch and the minister was stable at this time, and it was not good to take it back.

Han Zexi sometimes accepts himself, if he really wants to kill those pillars, how can he not be sad, what is he doing for nothing?

Is it that when the emperor can only pursue "those who follow me prosper, and those who oppose me perish", and the king who looks down on the world can only be lonely?

Although Adele diligently shush the cold and ask for warmth, and there are beauties who accompany him to sing songs every night, he always has grievances in his heart, and no one answers his worries and questions.

Regardless of state and family affairs, Han Zexi wants to reconcile, but he can't.

After getting along with Adele for a long time, I feel that I have no interest, I can only indulge my body, and my worries cannot be relieved, but more uncomfortable emotions are backlogged.

During this time, Hu Xianxian was busy balancing military and political forces, and he couldn't see his old friend have an accident, nor did he seek wealth and nobility, as long as he was stable.

Due to the inconvenience of entering the palace, he almost cut off contact with Shen Zhujun. There are fewer and fewer people around Shen Zhujun who can say a few words, and only Qiao Chushi occasionally enters the palace to visit.

In the blink of an eye, the Qixi Festival has arrived, and the July 7th Qiqiao Festival is a festival that has always been held in the palace, Qiao Chushi and Mrs. Shen entered the palace together to make plans for Shen Zhujun, to see how to do the festival, so as to quietly suppress Ade's arrogance.

"Don't bother thinking about that, how to do it in previous years, just do it according to the routine, I don't bother to spend those brains." Shen Zhujun flipped through an ancient book in his hand, perfunctory to them.

"Don't fight with those foxes, and we will be weak and bullied." Mrs. Shen said indignantly.

Disturbed and unable to read, Shen Zhujun asked impatiently: "It's too late to hide from the right and wrong of the fight, why take the initiative to provoke?" "

Mrs. Shen looked at her daughter and said with hatred: "There are all kinds of rights and wrongs in life, and you can't hide from it if you can't bear to retreat." "

While they were arguing, the little eunuch spread the word that the Daimei had arrived.

Ah Dai entered the door with her head held high with the support of a group of palace maids, since she found out that she was pregnant, her body shape has not changed, and she has to make a heavy and weak posture.

She saluted Shen Zhujun very slowly, "The concubine meets the queen's mother......"

"Not necessarily." Shen Zhujun glanced at her coldly, and raised his hand to signal Ah Lu to help her up.

Ah Lu went, and Mrs. Shen also smiled and went to help her, so Ah Dai stopped saluting.

"I don't know if I'm pregnant with a son or a daughter, my mother is erudite and talented, can I see it?"

Is this question provocative or sarcastic? Mrs. Shen's face was full of anger, and Shen Zhujun replied expressionlessly: "I can't see it." ”

"In fact, whether this first child is the eldest son of the emperor or the eldest daughter of the emperor, it will make the emperor very happy, after all, the first flesh and blood, even if the emperor has a prince and a princess in the future, it is not as important as this first one." Adele pursed her lips and chuckled.

"Oh, too." Shen Zhujun sharply stopped Mrs. Shen, who was about to say something, and responded lightly.

"It's also a blessing that Niangniang and Concubine De have been by the emperor's side for a few years, so that the concubines can pick the first honey fruit." Adele stroked her earlobe with her fingertips, she was wearing the golden peony pattern earrings given by the emperor.

Seeing that she intended to show off her grace, Shen Zhujun didn't even think it was troublesome, but he didn't hear or see it, and raised his eyes to look out the window.

Ah Dai waited for a moment and didn't wait for a response, and then said: "Knowing that the emperor's heir is hopeful, the Empress Dowager gave me a golden lock, and the lock piece is a pair of dragons and phoenixes whirling dance. "

said this, she wanted to listen to Shen Zhujun's words of envy, or words of jealousy, but she was only silent in response.

Ah Dai was not embarrassed, and continued: "Concubine De also sent a peach ornament, the small tree is full of red peaches, and the peaches are so realistic that people salivate when they look at them. Such a delicate ornament is not spliced, it is a whole coral, but the lines are not smooth. "

The cool breeze blows, and the branches and leaves in the bamboo forest are staggered and make a "rustling" sound. Shen Zhujun seemed to have forgotten where he was, and he also forgot that there were annoying people around him, staring at the bamboo forest like a fool.

Being ignored is more uncomfortable than being scolded, and Ade's smile gradually became less natural: "Aunt Tea also gave me a pair of gold bracelets for babies to wear......

Mrs. Shen finally couldn't stand the dull and strange atmosphere, and said to her daughter, "We should also give some congratulatory gifts to the beautiful people, Zhujun, how about giving her that golden unicorn?" "

The golden unicorn was given to her by Shen Zhujun at the 100-day banquet, which was neither big nor very exquisite, but Shen Zhujun was reluctant to give it.

She turned her head, looked at Ah Dai and said with a smile: "Dai Mei people have rare things from the emperor, where can they look down on our crude things." You don't have to send anything, send my sincere blessings, may your mother and son be safe! "

Ah Dai's face turned pale suddenly, and she said in a loud voice that if there was anything inappropriate in her words and deeds, please atone for the queen's sins.

Mrs. Shen didn't want to provoke a dispute, so she persuaded: "Zhujun, why do you say that? Gifts are still exchanged, and it also seems that we are generous and will do things. "

"I'm stingy, I don't know how to deal with things, but what?" Shen Zhujun's eyebrows were covered with frost.

Mrs. Shen was so choked that she couldn't answer, so she could only sigh, she couldn't even pretend to be hypocritical and polite, and Adele left in a huff.

"Zhujun, can you make Niang Province worry......" Mrs. Shen rubbed her temples with a headache.

"Mother, we don't make trouble, right and wrong come to mess with us. If you can't hide, it's better to make it clear. "

"As long as the emperor's heart is in you, why bother with those people? You have to try to win back the emperor's heart. "

Shen Zhujun didn't want to explain more to his mother, so he only said: "Luan Feng disdains to be with mosquitoes and flies." "

A little palace maid who walked at the end heard this, and said it in Adele's ear again, because Shen Zhujun compared herself to being a phoenix and regarded Adele like a fly and mosquito, which added to her hatred.

Mrs. Shen reprimanded her daughter for being too arrogant and stubborn, and speaking bluntly and sharply will cause great trouble.

Shen Zhujun was too lazy to refute, Qiao Chushi said with a smile: "Mrs. Shen doesn't have to worry, it's a blessing or a curse, and you can't avoid it." "

Mrs. Shen was dissatisfied that she was indulging in Shen Zhujun's temperament, and she said with a straight face: "Judging from the poor road, the Daimei people are not like heirs, and it is estimated that there is a conspiracy. "

According to Qiao Chushi's cultivation, you can observe the qi and see the body, and if you don't have the qi of an heir, you are not pregnant. This Adele dared to pretend to be pregnant, it was a big crime of bullying the king, they didn't say more, after leaving the palace, Qiao Chushi and Mrs. Shen discussed to find out what Adele's physical condition was.

On the afternoon of July 7, all the needs for the festival were ready, and Han Zexi sent an order to let the palace concubines and princes and ladies go to the lake to drink tea and listen to music.

Because it is a gathering of relatives, they do not wear dresses, they all wear all kinds of casual clothes, dressed like flowers blooming, and they show their respective advantages even more, which is really charming.

Shen Zhujun wears a narcissus hairpin, white jade is the petal, and the golden wire twists out the stamen, this hairpin head narcissus is as big as an apricot, and the tassel is the same as a daffodil as big as a soybean.

There is no extra headdress, but it looks more refreshing and elegant than the complicated headdress under the scorching sun.

Her earrings are also white daffodils, and her goose yellow ice silk dress is embroidered with jade and white daffodils, no heavy makeup, no extravagant clothes, and she still stands out among the beautiful women.

Han Zexi arrived later, wearing a bright yellow round-necked robe, and his hair was half-curled and half-draped with a white hosta, and the hairpin head was a daffodil.

He and Shen Zhujun hadn't seen each other for a while, and when they met at this time, they couldn't help but look at each other's outfits in surprise.

Others also looked at them, Han Zexi was gentle and noble, Shen Zhujun was elegant and beautiful, they were really a pair of beautiful people, not only a noble temperament, but also the same sense of detachment.

Trying her best to please her, it is better to be coincidental than by chance, Adei was jealous, and secretly thought: We must devise a clever plan to get rid of Shen Zhujun, the thorn in the eye, and remove this stumbling block.

The old imperial doctor who helped Hu Xianxian investigate the poisoning of the two children of the Zhang family also had a friendship with Shen Tingyang, and Mrs. Shen begged him to help him with all her heart.

He asked his disciples in the Tai Hospital to check Ade, and strive to get ironclad evidence of fake pregnancy.

This young lady asked to see Han Zexi under the pretext of offering fetal pills, and wanted to take the pulse of the Daimei.

Adele has a doctor who takes care of her, and she was reluctant to let other doctors come to see her, but she has no reason to shirk it.

The imperial doctor had a clever mouth again, and persuaded Han Zexi to let her take the pulse of Adele.

The result, of course, was that after taking the pulse carefully, the doctor concluded that Adele was not pregnant. He left the palace quietly, and Adai pretended to be calm and went to Gao Youquan.

After learning the truth, Qiao Chushi informed Mrs. Shen and discussed choosing an appropriate time to report to the emperor. Because if he said this directly, Han Zexi might not believe it, and maybe Adele had a backup trick and couldn't make her confess.
