Chapter 174: The Queen's Birthday Banquet (1)

In October, the news of the death of the emperor of the Western Kingdom came, and the great prince of the Western Kingdom ascended the throne in front of the spirit.

Ye Cangqiong, the new lord of the Western Kingdom, is twenty-two years old and is Ye Canghao's twin brothers. But their brothers have very different personalities, Ye Cangqiong has loved power since he was a child, is good at drilling camps, and has raised a group of dead soldiers under his command. Those who follow the other prosper, and those who oppose the other die!

And Ye Canghao is obsessed with martial arts, although his martial arts are strong, his mind is like a naughty boy. When the old lord was alive, he loved his youngest son, but he didn't have the heart to make him the prince. Because he also knows that his son is only suitable for being an idle prince, not for a monarch who controls the fate of the country.

Thinking of this Ye Canghao, who was a little flamboyant but looked like a big child, the corners of Shen Wan's mouth involuntarily floated a shallow smile.

But Chu Xichen showed a melancholy look, he put down the fold he presented, frowned and said, "Ye Cangqiong is much more difficult to deal with than his father. ”

Shen Wan retracted her thoughts, looked at him slowly, and said with a smile: "In this way, when General Pei was so anxious to kill the lord of the Western Kingdom, it only contributed to His Majesty's early confrontation with a powerful opponent?" ”

Chu Xichen smiled distressedly and said, "Wanwan, can't you stop being so sarcastic about me?" Besides, General Pei is dead, even if the Western Kingdom takes the opportunity to make trouble, I don't have a murderer to hand over! ”

Shen Wan's heart moved slightly, in fact, she knew that the person who shot the arrow was her brother, if the other party also knew, and General Pei Da was also dead. So, will it be ...... What about them taking all their anger out on their brother?

"If you want me to say! Even if they make trouble, are we afraid that they will not succeed? What's so powerful about that new lord? Isn't it a group of dead soldiers under his command who are said to be very strong in martial arts! A dignified lord of the country, specializing in these things of stealing chickens and dogs, I think, is not a capable person! Shen Wan said disdainfully.

Chu Xichen looked at her and smiled, noncommittal.

Shen Wan also ignored it, in the past half a month, the Queen Mother and Yao Ronghua have not moved, and she has not moved. Chen Ronghua's fetus is also very good, Shen Wan probably understands that the Queen Mother will not want the dragon fetus to have trouble, after all, it is the royal heir. Chu Xichen has always been very weak in terms of heirs, and this time it was not easy for a concubine with a low status to conceive a child, and the queen mother naturally would not harm her.

However, the Queen Mother will not harm the dragon fetus, but she will not necessarily let Shen Wan go.

So in the past half a month, Shen Wan has not shown any dissatisfaction with the Queen Mother because she executed those old people who used to be in the Shen family. On the second day after she returned to the palace, when she asked the Queen Mother for peace, the Queen Mother also deliberately felt sorry for her. But what she showed was only a slight grievance of weakness.

Yes, she is showing weakness to the Queen Mother, she is not sure of hitting with one blow, and she will get rid of the Queen Mother quickly!

But she won't give up, she will wait, and when she has that opportunity, she will definitely let this hateful old woman pay for all her sins!

"I heard that the queen mother has asked you to go to Shou'an Palace to copy Buddhist scriptures these days?" Chu Xichen seemed to ask casually, but his eyes were firmly fixed on Shen Wan.

How? Is it tempting her? Could it be that he was worried that his mother was still embarrassing her?

Shen Wan smiled and said, "Yes, the queen mother has always worshiped the Buddha, and I have lived in Yuhua Temple for a few days, probably because I think I have this Huigen, right?" It is a good idea to serve in front of the queen mother and make the queen mother and concubines closer. ”

She said without the slightest grievance, and never mentioned that no one was allowed to approach when copying Buddhist scriptures, and she had to grind and lay the paper herself. Shou'an Palace is in disrepair, and if there is no air conditioning in this weather, standing alone in the empty side hall is really a bit cold.

Shen Wan gently covered her mouth and nose and coughed twice, Chu Xichen glanced at her twice, and said, "If the queen mother is embarrassed by you, you don't have to bear it, just say it." ”

Shen Wan smiled faintly and said, "How could it be?" The queen mother did not embarrass the concubines, and the emperor was too worried. ”

Chu Xichen was still expressionless, and said after a while: "That's good." ”

After gossiping for a while, Chu Xichen said: "Next month is Wanwan's birthday, I really want to give Wanwan a good birthday, what does Wanwan think?" ”

Shen Wan was stunned for a moment, and muttered, "Is it my birthday again?" ”

Chu Xichen laughed lightly, held her hand and said, "Yes, it's Wanwan's sixteenth birthday, I haven't had a good birthday in the first two years, I want to compensate you this time, and I will definitely hold the grandest and most lively birthday banquet for you!" I want to give amnesty to the world and pray for you! ”

It seems that Chu Xichen has already decided, and Shen Wan will no longer go against his will, so he has no choice but to smile and say: "The emperor alone is in charge." ”

Chu Xichen nodded with satisfaction, but Shen Wan remembered the past two birthdays, at the age of fourteen, she lost her family; At the age of fifteen, she was confined to bed/slavery...... Do you think that if you make amends after the incident, you will be able to save everything? No, it won't!

What happened is what happened, and no one can treat it as if it didn't happen!

You can't forget it, and I won't forget it!

Chu Xichen quickly instructed the Internal Affairs Office, so he prepared for the queen's birthday for a month, and at the same time announced the news to the world, so that several princes who were far away in the fiefdom came back to the banquet, and invited the monks of Yuhua Temple to come into the palace to chant and pray for blessings.

The Queen Mother was a little unhappy when she knew it, and said to Yao Ronghua in private: "It's really useless to raise a child, where does he still think of me as an old woman now!" I only remember the demon girl, fortunately this demon girl is not pregnant, otherwise she would not have been held up to the sky! Although Chen Ronghua now has a dragon fetus, but Siying, that is a method that is only used when it is absolutely necessary. You'd better be favored by the emperor and give birth to a child of your own. ”

Yao Ronghua's face flushed slightly, and then said, "Si Ying will work hard." ”

The Queen Mother sighed, patted her hand, and said, "I will follow your method to find out the inside line that Shen Yuan left in the palace, hum!" Shen Wan, the demon girl, didn't know if she didn't notice it, in short, she didn't dare to make any resistance, and she was obedient to the mourning family. Haha, it seems that this trick is really useful, so that she can understand who is the real master in this harem! ”

Yao Ronghua was silent, the Queen Mother was happy, she couldn't say it clearly, but with her understanding of the queen, how could Shen Wan not take action? Is there really nothing she can do? Or is she hatching a conspiracy? The more she is soft on the Queen Mother now, the more worried Yao Ronghua becomes. Shen Wan is not a good person, if she lowers her posture towards the Queen Mother on the surface, she is secretly plotting...... It seems that I have to brace myself to face the battle!

However, Shen Wan has not doubted herself now, she has always been careful, and she will not be caught! Be sure to use her trust to achieve your ultimate goal!
