On the ninth day of the fifth month, Yuan Mingyue was ordered to enter the palace.

Yuan Mingyue got up early in the morning, and after she was ready to freshen up, she was taken to the palace gate by the carriage in the palace and carried into the palace in the inner sedan chair. Due to the limitation of the system, only one attendant can be served, so only Mama Si was brought. Originally, her grandmother was also going to send someone to follow, but after seeing Mama Si, she didn't say much.

Before she could wait for a long time, she saw a message from the chamberlain, saying that the queen had ordered her to meet her. Yuan Mingyue took a deep breath before following in.

After entering the Kunhe Palace, he was brought to a screen and asked to salute. Yuan Mingyue followed the etiquette taught by her grandmother before, and came one by one, not daring to make the slightest mistake. It turned out that the queen was in confinement and couldn't see the wind, so she asked questions through the screen. The queen was not embarrassed, and sent a message for people to sit.

After saying some official words, he asked Yuan Mingyue to go to the imperial garden for a walk, saying that the flower appreciation banquet was organized by Concubine Shu, and he went to see him. From this, Yuan Mingyue even more concluded that the queen's summons was just a head.

Before he arrived at the Imperial Garden, he met Shen Ruyu on the road. There were still a few women in the group, but Yuan Mingyue had never seen them. As soon as Shen Ruyu saw her, she ran over to greet her, saying that she had come to enjoy the flowers with a few young ladies, and introduced them to one by one.

When she arrived at the garden, Concubine Shu was not present, so the ladies of each family had to gather to enjoy the flowers, because the Yuan family was not Xuanhe, except for Shen Ruyu, she didn't know anyone, but she didn't want to use Yaohua, so she said that she wanted to walk casually.

When I was young, two beautiful women, hand in hand, looked at the dress, it should be a palace concubine and a foreign wife. He also had a child of three or four years old.

When the two of them were far away, they heard someone whispering.

"Is this a lady? I saw her name on the list of silkworm gifts last March. ”

"Not only that, but also a bill."

"If the lady's maiden family is the Zhang family, she is a world friend with the Shen family."

"And what is today?"

"The queen mother gave birth to the eldest prince, and she can't see the wind, don't you see the person who follows next to Mrs. Ru?"

"That's the grandmother next to the queen?"

As they spoke, the two of them arrived, and the crowd saluted each other.

The little girl next to her is Princess Hui'an Heshuo, because she is the emperor's first daughter, so the emperor cherishes it a little, and she is specially named Princess Heshuo. His biological mother was also a noble daughter, and she was promoted to the position of concubine, called Concubine Ning, but she was only at the end of the eight concubines.

Now that the queen has also given birth to a son-in-law, the saint is preparing to show his strength, get rid of the disadvantages of founding the country, and become another emperor after Emperor Taizu. However, the emperor is the grandson of the first emperor, and the first prince died before he ascended the throne, although there is a will of the first emperor, and the emperor was able to ascend the throne, but the throne is also in jeopardy.

At this moment, the concubine of the middle palace has come out, and there is a successor, which can be regarded as suppressing the aftermath of the reform, and the court can be stable for the time being. However, it is a long-term plan to collect noble girls into the palace, obtain the support of various families, and recuperate.

Unconsciously, Yuan Mingyue was distracted. I suddenly felt a little thirsty, so I wanted to drink tea.

Mama Si behind her suddenly interrupted and said, "Miss, the tea is cold, the old slave should let you change a cup." ”

Yuan Mingyue was shocked, I'm afraid that I can't drink tea. I can only sit quietly with no waves, and see the moves. Since Yuan Mingyue woke up, she may not even realize that her personality is changing imperceptibly. Guessing, Yaohua was playing with the princess and saw that she accidentally knocked over the pastries on the table, and the oil stains fell on her skirt, so Concubine Ning hurriedly asked Yuan Mingyue to take care of it.

Sure enough, as soon as he was out of everyone's sight, someone from the palace passed the word, saying that it was the concubine who summoned him. Concubine Shu held a banquet, but no one came, and she privately summoned Yuan Mingyue, what kind of medicine was she selling? Yuan Mingyue had no choice but to bite the bullet.

When I entered the hall, I didn't see the concubine, but I saw the emperor dressed in a man's clothes, and the frightened Yuan Mingyue immediately knelt down and hurriedly saluted. I felt like I was being looked at for a while before I heard the voice: "Get up." ”

"You are Yuan Mingyue, listen to Huai Jin, can you return safely from Huguo Temple, or do you rely on your wit to deal with it?"

It seems that this Shen Er is also a saint! Yuan Mingyue thought in her heart, but replied in her mouth: "If you go back to the emperor, the courtiers are stupid, but fortunately Shen Gongzi sacrificed his life to save him, so he was able to get out of danger." ”

"Well, a good girl who knows how to read and learn. But Huai Jing and I said, when I saved you, there were many excesses, so he was willing to bear it. ”

"Back to the emperor's words, Shen Gongzi is the life-saving benefactor of the courtiers, Mencius once said, sister-in-law and uncle aid is a rite, and now the son rescues him, it is a matter of urgency, how can the courtiers not distinguish between black and white, and use this as a threat to trap the son in injustice."

"Hehe, you're a wonderful person, and you can really speak well. It's better to make a promise of life-saving grace, which can be regarded as a good story. ”

Yuan Mingyue chuckled in her heart, although she said that she didn't hate Shen Daochang, but if she wanted to marry him, she was still panicked.

"Back to the emperor's words, this...

Seeing Yuan Mingyue's hesitation in answering, Emperor Jianwu said in a deep voice: "You think I am asking for your opinion!" ”

Yuan Mingyue immediately fell to the ground and said, "The courtiers don't dare!" Please forgive the emperor! ”

This king is the most moody, and he accompanies the king like a tiger, and the ancients do not deceive me.

After a while, Yuan Mingyue didn't hear any movement, and was very worried, so she listened: "I heard that Huai Jin's piece of Jue, you have a match?" Where's the place? ”

"If you go back to the emperor, it is a gift from your grandmother to her courtiers."

"Old lady of the Xu family?" Emperor Jianwu hesitated for a moment, as if talking to himself, and immediately said, "Hand it over and take a look."

Yuan Mingyue hurriedly took out the jade jue that was combined into one, and held it above her head, feeling that someone was coming to take it away, it turned out that there were other people in this room. After a while, he returned it and told her to retreat.

Yuan Mingyue's knees hurt, it's better for Dang Mingyue, at least she doesn't have to kneel. Yuan Mingyue is a spirit, how could she have such a ridiculous idea!

As soon as he came out, he met Concubine Shu, who was very enthusiastic about Yuan Mingyue, and rewarded a pair of bracelets, and was finally sent out of the palace in advance. But he met Shen Daochang at the gate of the palace, after all, it was a life-saving grace, so Yuan Mingyue stepped forward to say hello.

"At the beginning, you are okay to save, I am worried about you." Shen Daochang doesn't treat himself as an outsider when he comes up.

"Mingyue hasn't thanked Shen Gongzi for saving his life?"

"Didn't you say that I should be cautious? In the beginning, why do you want to see the outside like this? Don't eat yet, let's go, I'll invite you to dinner! “

"Thank you, but it's not appropriate" Men and women are seven years old at different tables, not to mention going to the restaurant. Only Shen Daochang can do it.

"Didn't you want to thank me at the beginning? Then will you invite me to dinner? You're not just talking, are you? After saying that, he made a very exaggerated and unbelievable gesture.

Yuan Mingyue hesitated, and said, "But my family will be worried when they see that I haven't returned for a long time." “

"Don't worry, wrap it around me" turned around and shouted: "Sunset, go to Yuan's mansion to report a letter." ”

Yuan Mingyue had no choice but to respond.

When Risheng heard that he was going to eat, he said, "Son, are you still going to Zangxianglou?" “

Shen Daochang lined up on his head: "Are you pig brains?" I'll have dinner with Miss Yuan and go to the Tibetan Fragrance Building! Go to the Drunken Immortal Residence! “
