Chapter 22: The Queen's Intentions

Since it is a peach feast, naturally they will not all sit upright in the main hall, taste peach brewing and enjoy singing and dancing.

After lunch, the inner supervisor came, the water pavilion was prepared, the stage was set up, and the people from the "Shenghua team" in Beijing were invited to perform, and the group moved to the water pavilion.

The sun is shining outside, the sun is just right, accompanied by the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers.

The emperor had all the opportunities, and he just sat for a while and left.

It's just that a few princes stayed.

Since it is for the selection of the crown princess, the prince must always be asked to contact them, and the other princes are accompanied.

Under the eyes of the queen, there is nothing to do to get rid of the wind.

After the saint left, the queen passed the word, if there is a noble girl who is tired, she will go to the side room prepared in the palace to rest for a while, if she is interested, she will stroll around the Changli Courtyard, or go to the water pavilion to watch the opera.

After getting the pardon, some delicate ladies asked for their resignation one after another, and were led into the wing room by Gong E to rest.

Shen Junru breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to go to take a nap when Gong E came to call her.

"Miss Shen, please come with the slave."

She has sharp eyes and an excellent memory, even if she recognizes that this is the queen's side.

I was slightly stunned in my heart, and I couldn't refute the queen's face.

Blessed body, said politely.

"I'm tired."

"Miss Shen doesn't have to be polite."

Although Gong'e is a female official next to the queen, she doesn't dare to put on a high shelf, after all, Shen Junru is very likely to be the future crown princess, and it is good to be more respectful.

Just as she was about to step up to keep up, Shen Xiangning on her side hurriedly pulled her sleeve and said.

"Eldest sister, I'm with you."

Those eyes were full of "expectation", and there was a bit of "prayer".

Oh, in order to be in the position of the crown princess, she knows how to "condescend to the noble"!

Thinking of Shen Xiangning's "eyebrow flirtation" with the prince just now, since Shen Xiangning entered the prince's mansion in the previous life, it proves that there is still the possibility of "development" between her and the prince, and she really doesn't want to enter the prince's mansion to wade into this troubled water, so it is better to push the boat down the river so that she can get out.

After a little thought, he nodded and said in a low voice.

"Come with me."

"Thank you, eldest sister."

Shen Xiangning's face showed a little joy, and she didn't notice the lightness and ridicule that flashed in the female official's eyes.

While following behind Shen Junru, he was busy sorting out his clothes and jewelry.

Soon, the two of them were led by the female official to the queen phoenix.

At this moment, the queen is sitting in the octagonal pavilion, hanging a veil to shade the sun and block the wind, and a piece of cold ice is placed in her hand.

"The people's daughter Shen Junru visited the queen's mother, and the mother was blessed with Jin'an."

"Shen Xiangning, the folk girl, visited the queen's mother, and the mother was blessed with Jin'an."

Shen Junru and Shen Xiangning said in unison, staggering half of their bodies one after the other, respectfully blessing their bodies.

The queen glanced at Shen Xiangning, ignored her directly, raised a little smile on her face, and stretched out her hand to Shen Junru, saying.

"Come here, tell Bengong Haosheng to take a look, I haven't had time yet."

You can't hide from what you should have.

When Shen Junru heard this, she straightened up and moved in front of the queen.

The queen was neat, and reached out and grabbed her wrist.

The queen's hands were cold, and when she grabbed Shen Junru, she called her a clever person, and her brain and people sobered up a little, and she instantly understood the queen's intention of calling her, I was afraid that she was in the truth.

It's not so much that she fell in love with her, but that she fell in love with the power of the Shen family.

The queen didn't know, but Shen Junru knew that in her previous life, Shen Xiang condensed into the prince's mansion, and the Shen mansion was equivalent to standing on the prince's side, and then the prince was defeated in that bloody battle to win the enemy, and the Shen family was also destroyed.

In this life, she categorically will not let Shen Fu follow in his footsteps again.

"Queen Lao is worried, and Junru is very frightened."

"You're just like your mother, too cautious."

"Mother..."

Lonely lowered her eyes, if her mother was more cautious, she would not have ended up like that.

The queen looked at Shen Junru's plain clothes and suddenly melancholy appearance, and then remembered what Shen Junru said before.

With a sigh, he patted the back of her hand and said.

"Mourning, the Shen Mansion will need you to handle it in the future."

Talking to the queen mother about such common words, Shen Junru always had some ups and downs in her heart.

It was the queen, when she said this, she glanced at Shen Xiangning, who was standing outside the pavilion, and looked at the queen, Shen Xiangning hurriedly pulled out a smiling face, but before the smile could be opened, the queen looked away again, as if she was just casually skimming.

I was a little depressed and held my breath.

Hmph, thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, now they are sitting in the cool, she is outside in the sun, it doesn't matter! It's all about seeing who can sit in the end!

was suffocating, and suddenly a bright yellow figure flickered in his sight, and he saw the prince coming over under the guidance of the little eunuch from a distance.

Prince Fengyue, more than eight feet tall, with a loose posture, eyebrows and eyes are handsome, only in his early twenties, there are some concubines in the house, but they have not yet established a concubine.

The queen called Shen Junru at this time, and then called the crown prince, and her heart was Sima Zhao's heart, which was known to passers-by.

"Xiangning has seen the prince, the prince is blessed."

Shen Xiangning hurriedly curtsied at the prince, and then raised her eyebrows slightly, and glanced at the prince shyly.

"No need to be polite."

As he spoke, the feather fan in his hand tapped lightly on her arm, which meant that he was really a little inexplicable, and he was afraid that even he didn't know what his intentions were.

Although it was a subconscious action, it fell into the eyes of the queen.

The queen narrowed her phoenix eyes slightly, couldn't help but glance at Shen Xiangning more, and then turned her eyes and looked at Shen Junru as if she hadn't seen anything, took a sip of tea, and was putting down the cup.

is a broad-minded, not jealous, the most important thing in charge of the prince's mansion or the harem in the future is calm and generous.

After all, whether it is the crown prince or the emperor, there will not be only one woman.

It's just that the queen doesn't know that her calmness actually doesn't care at all.

After thinking about it, the prince had already stepped into the octagonal pavilion and bowed to the queen.

"The son has seen the queen mother."

"Get up."

Shen Junru on the side stood up and said with a slight bend of his knees.

"The prince is auspicious."

"Excuse me, excuse me, this is Sister Junru, right?"

Younger sister? Who's with your sister!

It's called intimacy.

Shen Junru's heart was full of emotion, but her face was not moved at all.
