When Huan Chun returned to the East Palace, he didn't meet anyone else, but he met Xue Yan.

"Huanchun, where have you been all afternoon?" When Xue Yan saw her coming back, he stepped forward, "Your Highness still asked about you." ”

When Huan Chun heard this, he was thrilled for a moment, and it took a while to stabilize his mood: "I'm going to the third princess." ”

"The third princess?" Xue Yan frowned and looked at her suspiciously, "Huanchun, why are you lying?" His Royal Highness didn't see you, and thought you went to the third princess, but after sending someone to ask, he found that you hadn't been there at all. ”

"I ......" Huanchun was speechless for a while, bowed her head and said nothing, because she had been tossed by Shen Tianhua for a long time, her face looked a little pale.

Seeing this, Xue Yan couldn't bear to continue to criticize her, and said, "Your Highness thinks you're lazy, and you're not in a good mood, you should be careful later, don't anger Your Highness again." ”

"I know, thank you Brother Xue for reminding me."

"Go in, Your Highness is in the main hall."

"Yes."

Immediately, the two entered the main hall together and saw Shen Changge, who was leisurely drinking tea inside.

Taking a sip of the teacup, when Shen Changge raised his eyes, he saw the two of them walking in, and his brows were almost imperceptibly slightly raised.

When she put down the teacup, her face suddenly became stern, she glanced at Huanchun, and said in a deep voice: "Huanchun, where did you go in the afternoon?" Why don't you work in the East Palace? ”

Huan Chun knelt down with a plop and hurriedly begged for mercy: "Your Highness is angry, the slave and maid are not deliberately lazy. The slave maid just thought, Your Highness, you are out of the palace, you will not find that the slave and maid are lazy, the slave and maid went out for a walk, who knows that they forgot the time for a while, so they will only come back until now, and ask Your Highness to punish you. ”

Shen Changge looked at her with serious eyes, as if he wanted to see some clues from her face.

But her expression always seemed very self-reproachful and remorseful, as if she was really blaming herself for not being greedy for playing and forgetting time.

Retracting his gaze, Shen Changge spoke slowly: "It seems that this palace is too indulgent to you on weekdays, and it actually makes you a little carried away, and you dare to be so lazy." ”

"The slave doesn't dare anymore." Huan Chun prostrate on the ground, hiding the panic on his face, "The slave will definitely work more diligently in the future, and will never be lazy again, and please forgive the slave this time." ”

Shen Changge leaned lazily on the back of the chair and said lightly: "It's okay to forgive you, but this is no rule, you have to accept punishment if you make a mistake." ”

"The slave is willing to be punished."

Shen Changge thought for a while and said: "Then the palace will punish you for halving your income this month, you like to be lazy so much, take the income but don't work, wouldn't it be for nothing to raise you." ”

Such a punishment is already merciful and benevolent to Huanchun, and she naturally does not dare to complain.

"The slave obeys."

Shen Changge didn't question her again, waved his hand and said, "Go down, if you let this palace find out that you sneaked out and were lazy in the future, this palace will not spare you!" ”

"Yes, the slave doesn't dare anymore."

After saying that, Huan Chun got up and took a few steps back before turning to leave.

When she left, Shen Changge glanced up at her, but suddenly found that her walking posture was a little strange, and her legs were a little stiff, as if she couldn't open her legs.

Huanchun was asked by Shen Tianhua twice, and the strength of his body was almost squeezed out, and his two legs seemed to be not his own, so how could his walking posture not be strange?

However, Shen Changge would not think of this, just glanced at her twice and then withdrew his gaze.

……

The cold winter wax moon seems to be less cold because the year is approaching.

On this day, Shen Changge practiced martial arts in the backyard as usual, and the cold weather couldn't stop her from wanting to become stronger.

After practicing for an hour, she stopped to rest and take a sip of tea.

At this time, a palace maid came to report that the emperor had summoned her to Zhaoyang Palace.

When the emperor summoned her, she naturally didn't dare to slack off, changed her clothes, and after freshening up, she went to Zhaoyang Palace.

After coming to Zhaoyang Palace, she found that in addition to summoning her, the emperor also summoned some ministers, even Shen Yiqing.

When she walked in, the ministers saluted her, and she smiled and nodded in response.

When passing by Shen Yiqing's side, she was stunned for a short time, and her face changed instantly, but she quickly regained her calm.

"Uncle Huang." She took the initiative to say hello to Shen Yiqing, but it was only out of politeness, and after calling him, she stood in her position and didn't look at Shen Yiqing anymore.

This is the second time she saw Shen Yiqing after she came back from the palace after she said she was sick.

Compared with the last time she saw him, this time, her mood was much calmer, but after all, she couldn't stop her heart.

Unlike when she wanted to be like water, Shen Yiqing's mood was a little irritable, his eyes looked at her from time to time, and he became even more anxious when he found that she didn't even look at himself at all.

It seems that the prince really doesn't plan to pay attention to him, and he doesn't plan to have anything to do with him.

He regretted that day that he had said such things and done something impulsive.

Although the crown prince is now deliberately keeping a distance from him, he really does not bother him anymore and does not cause trouble for him anymore.

However, he felt that such a prince made him care more, so that he didn't know what the emperor said, and his attention was all on Shen Changge.

Until the emperor asked him, "Regent, what do you think?" ”

He came back to his senses suddenly, and subconsciously looked up at Shen De, a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes.

After being stunned for two seconds, he replied, "The minister respectfully obeys the emperor's orders." ”

His answer surprised Shen De a little, but he didn't say much, and said, "Since the regent has no objections, then do as I say." ”

"Yes." Everyone responded in unison.

And this time, Shen De summoned everyone to come just to discuss the commendation given to the ministers at the end of the year.

The ministers and officials have worked hard for a year, and Shen De feels that he should also give everyone some awards, so that they can work harder to be loyal to the court and be loyal to him in the coming year.

During this period, Shen Changge did not express her opinion, but she was also listening, studying, and listening very carefully, so that she forgot for a moment that there was Shen Yiqing next to her.

It wasn't until Shen De asked Shen Yiqing and found that he was a little distracted, that Shen Changge finally glanced at him again.

But just a glance, she quickly looked away, her face was calm, but she couldn't help but think about what he was thinking just now, and he was distracted.

"Go down, all of you." After discussing the matter, Shen De waved his hand to let everyone stand back.

"The ministers are leaving."

Walking out of Zhaoyang Palace, Shen Changge continued to move forward without stopping.

But at this moment, a person suddenly walked next to her, grabbed her wrist, and forced her to stop.

However, before she could react, the other party had already dragged her away.
