The ladies of the official family bent their knees to see Shen Yuexi, and then looked at her carefully with their heads lowered.

Shen Yuexi was indifferent, and there was an indescribable heroism hidden in her eyebrows and eyes, which made her different from other feminine women, and her eyes were also deep, like a pool of bottomless water, and she couldn't see through what was inside.

Such a Shen Yuexi was beyond the expectations of the ladies of the official family, and it was only to blame that they had heard that she was a fleeing refugee and thought of her unbearable, but now that they saw it, they realized that the bearing of the Seventh Princess was not something that a small family had never seen the world, and her eyes were very calm when she looked at them, but this calmness made them a little cold.

They immediately understood that this Seventh Princess was not easy to deal with.

But it's nothing, in the final analysis, they have to serve the Seventh Prince, as long as they please the Seventh Prince, presumably the Seventh Princess will not be able to embarrass them.

"Seventh Princess, you came just in time, quickly help the Seventh Prince to see which of these official ladies is as good as the Seventh Prince." Seeing that everyone was stunned, the Queen Mother hurriedly spoke to break the deadlock.

Shen Yuexi showed a slight smile at this time, she looked at Zhao Zheng, "Does the seventh master have a favorite?" I like what the seventh master likes. ”

Shen Yuexi's answer was sensible and decent.

But Zhao Zheng doesn't hope for the sensible and decent Shen Yuexi, she hopes that Shen Yuexi will be jealous and petty, he hopes that Shen Yuexi will be jealous and drive these women away, he hopes that she will tell everyone that the Seventh Prince is her alone, and everyone wants to enter the Kangping Palace.

"That's right, the mourning family knows that the Seventh Princess is the most knowledgeable." The Queen Mother smiled, and then asked Zhao Zheng, "Seventh Prince, which lady do you like?" ”

"Wait until you go back and draw up the list and then pass it on one by one, I still have a lot of government affairs to deal with, you can watch it at will, the queen mother, the son will retire first." After Zhao Zheng finished speaking, he left.

Zhao Zheng left now, which surprised everyone.

It is not only those official ladies who are disappointed, but also Ru Cairen, she deliberately put on makeup because she can see Zhao Zheng today, although because the emperor can't wear too gorgeous clothes, but the makeup is also very hard, thinking that Zhao Zheng can look at her more, but now it's good, let alone look at it more, Zhao Zheng didn't even look at her.

was so stunned that Ru Cairen twisted the silk handkerchief in his hand, feeling a little angry.

The atmosphere was a little stagnant, the Queen Mother looked at the official ladies and smiled, and said, "The Seventh Prince is too busy now," and beckoned Shen Yuexi, "Seventh Princess, don't stand with your body in your arms, come and sit." ”

Shen Yuexi walked to the position next to the Queen Mother and sat down.

After sitting down, she didn't have anything to say, she turned her head and glanced at the official ladies, Zhao Zheng left, their expressions were a little less charming, and they stood there a little confused.

"Let's relax, let's continue to enjoy the flowers, don't stick to it." The Queen Mother said to them.

They answered yes in unison, but no one moved around at will, they all stood in place, half-bowed heads, silent.

Shen Yuexi smiled faintly, she didn't speak, she didn't have any thoughts of getting into a relationship with them, even if some of them would enter the Kangping Mansion in the future, she also hoped that the well water with them would not interfere with the river water, and they would be safe and sound.

What sisters and sisters, she doesn't need.

"Now it's okay, someone can help the Seventh Princess share some of the things that take care of the Seventh Prince, and the Seventh Princess can raise the baby with peace of mind." Concubine Xixian finally seized the opportunity to embarrass Shen Yuexi.

This woman is really talkative, Shen Yuexi snorted coldly in her heart, but she still didn't say anything, she was tired and lacking in energy, and she was really lazy to talk to others.

"The seventh princess listens to the words of the old mother in the palace, a woman's birth is a hurdle, and if she doesn't do it, she will die." Concubine Xixian said again.

Shen Yuexi simply got up and said to the Queen Mother: "The concubine is very tired these days, so I won't accompany the Queen Mother much, so let's enjoy the flowers." ”

Shen Yuexi looked at the former emperor's concubines again, bowed slightly, and turned around.

The official ladies hurriedly said goodbye to Shen Yuexi, Shen Yuexi waved his hand, didn't look at them or spoke, and left.

"It's hard for the Seventh Princess to be pregnant now, so why do you say those words to scare her." Waiting for Shen Yuexi to leave, the Queen Mother glanced at Concubine Xixian and reproached.

Concubine Xixian covered her mouth with a silk handkerchief and defended herself: "I have always been straightforward and fast-talking, Queen Mother, you know that I have no malice." ”

The Queen Mother didn't bother to say more, Zhao Guang was no longer there, and his concubines were the most useless people in the harem, so there was no need to blame them more and make them look even more desolate.

"But the Queen Mother, if the Seventh Prince accepts a concubine, where will they live? Could it be that he also lives in the palace? Won't our palace become a royal palace? Concubine Xixian couldn't tell the difference between the important and the serious, and said again.

The Queen Mother was upset when she heard this, and her tone was not very good, "The Seventh Prince can live wherever he wants, Concubine Xian, don't worry about this idleness." ”

After being bored, Concubine Xixian stopped talking, but looked at those official ladies and disdained in her heart: The seven princesses are okay, but these official ladies will be just a prince's concubine in the future, what kind of thing is it, and they deserve to live in the palace like their concubines?

After taking a look, he whispered to Concubine Xixian: "You hold on, no matter how angry you are, don't say it, are you still when the emperor is here?" ”

Concubine Xixian sneered, "Then they can't be bullied by us." ”

"Who bullied you? Is it short, do you eat and wear, or do you deduct your degree? "I am also a little impatient with Concubine Xixian's stubbornness.

"I'm just not convinced." Concubine Xixian said angrily.

"Now you have to obey it, and you have to obey it if you don't accept it, to put it mildly, if you make the Seventh Prince unhappy, do you think you can still live so leisurely in the palace?"

When Concubine Xixian heard this, she let out a long sigh and stopped talking.

**

For lunch, the Queen Mother took the concubines of the former emperor and the ladies of the official family to use it together.

Originally, Zhao Zheng was also going to come, but it happened that Yue Gan entered Beijing, and Zhao Zheng met Yue Gan and had lunch with him in the Qinzheng Palace.

When the queen mother heard the news from the palace people, she didn't wait and beckoned those official ladies to dinner.

Shen Yuexi didn't come, and sent Chen Qiuhe to report to the Queen Mother, only saying that she was unwell.

Therefore, for this lunch, all the official ladies ate blandly, and no one wanted to see them.

The Queen Mother also had a lot of food, she heard that Yue Ganshi entered the palace, and she knew that Zhao was ready to reuse him, not only Yue Ganshi, but also those ministers who were abolished when Zhao Guang ascended the throne would be activated one by one, and Zhao Zheng's power would become more and more stable.

It's a good thing to be stable, but it's too stable, will there be a foothold for the prince in the future?

Speaking of the crown prince, it will be time to ascend the throne in a few days, and thinking of this, the queen mother's heart is slightly relieved.

"What about the Prince? Let's bring a meal. Thinking of the prince, the queen mother instructed the palace people to invite the prince to come.

The crown prince is also the hope of these former emperors and concubines, when the prince ascends the throne, they are the noble mother concubines, and when they become adults, they are in power, and Zhao Zheng and Shen Yuexi are still princesses and princesses.

Therefore, these concubines are very good to the prince in the prime of life.

Lunch was also the case, the prince came, and the concubines were concerned about his diet and studies, and kept asking.

The prince answered them one by one.

The Queen Mother stopped them on the side, "Okay, okay, as soon as you come, you will ask questions from east to west, can't you let the prince have a good meal?" ”

The queen mother beckoned the prince to sit beside her, and instructed the palace people to take care of the prince's meal, and the official ladies looked at the child in front of them, who would be the emperor of Nanxia in a few days, and couldn't help but feel magical.

Some people can't help but think, it's a pity that the prince is still young, otherwise he can enter the palace to choose a concubine today, and becoming the emperor's concubine is more noble than a prince's concubine after all.

Man's desires and ambitions are endless.

In Yuxiu Palace, Chen Qiuhe went back after reporting to the Queen Mother and returned to Shen Yuexi.

"Has the Seventh Prince gone?" Shen Yuexi asked.

"No, I heard that Yue Ganshi, the former secretary of the military department, was summoned to the palace, and the Seventh Prince is having dinner with Yue Ganshi." Chen Qiuhe said.

Yue Ganshi? Shen Yuexi was stunned, she had never heard Zhao Zheng talk about summoning Yue Gan, so she must have reused it, and when she saw Yue Gan, she should think of Yue Xi.

At this moment, Shen Yuexi suddenly became a little curious about Yue Xi, what did this woman with the same pronunciation as her name look like?

Shen Yuexi thought that Zhao Zheng said that he would draw up a list of selected official ladies when he came back, so he instructed Chen Qiuhe, "You go and inquire, and when the list of selected official ladies comes out, remember to make a copy and show it to me." ”

Chen Qiuhe hurriedly responded, turned around and went to the Qinzheng Hall to meet with Gao Baozhi.

But because Zhao Zheng was busy meeting with Yue Gan, he didn't have time to choose the list for a while, and Zhao Zheng didn't remember the appearance of those official ladies, he needed to be free, according to the background of those official ladies, he didn't plan to choose the official ladies in the capital, he wanted to choose those local prefects or county prefects, which could be regarded as stabilizing local tranquility by marriage.

Yue Ganshi and Zhao Zheng met, and both of them were quite emotional, especially after mentioning Yue Xi, the two were silent for a while.

"I have a reluctant request, I hope you will agree, Lord Seven." Yue Ganshi broke the silence.

"You say."

"I still have a daughter under my knees, she is seventeen years old this year, and she is not married, if the seventh prince does not dislike it, can he be blessed to enter the Kangping Palace? It can be regarded as fulfilling a wish for Yue Xi. Yue Ganshi said.

"You're talking about Yue Lake?"

Zhao Zheng remembered Yue Hu, when he went to see Yue Xi, Yue Hu often hid timidly and looked at him, and in a blink of an eye, it was time to get married.

"It's been a long time since I and Yue Xi happened, I can't let her be my concubine because of this, it's really wronged to let her be my concubine, I can help her choose a wishful Langjun in the Manchu Dynasty, you don't have to worry about this." Zhao Zheng said.
