Calming down, Concubine Shu's spirit relaxed a little, and said to Xiangwei: "This mood will be fine after a while, don't worry, I won't be as stupid as your master, I just brought you back easily, I didn't expect to be so loyal to you." Good Xiangwei, don't do stupid things. ”

Xiangwei pursed her lips tangledly, but nodded silently.

Concubine Shu told her not to think nonsense, and when Xiangwei withdrew, she picked herself up and came to see her sons. Entering the door and standing behind the screen, seeing that Feng'er was still studying under the lamp so late, the child was working harder and harder, which made Shuguifei very relieved, and the younger brother was sleeping sweetly on the ** on the side, and the child who was not sensible was carefree.

Thinking of having a big fight with her son during the day, Feng'er's eyes were still a little red and swollen at the moment, and Concubine Shu didn't want to go in and disturb him, so she turned around and left silently. But just as she was about to walk out of the door, she heard her son calling her behind her, and her son chased him out and walked around in front of her.

"Mother, why don't you come in?" The child asked, pouting.

"I'm afraid to disturb your study, but son, it's late now, okay to read tomorrow at dawn?" Concubine Shu bent down and touched her son's hand, it was hot, and she was relieved.

Feng'er looked at her mother, her eyes gradually moistened, and she said sadly: "Queen Mother, I know that my father may not come back, although you don't say anything to me, but I also know." The palace has become what it is now, it is different from before, the ladies are gone, the palace maids and eunuchs have also changed, I know it. ”

"Silly boy." Concubine Shu held back her tears and said, "No, my father will come back." ”

The child choked, wiped his tears vigorously, and hugged his mother: "I will study hard, and when I grow up, I will protect my mother, don't be afraid, my father is gone, and I will be there." ”

Shuguifei burst into tears, hugged her son and suppressed her crying, and said with difficulty: "My mother will always be with you and will not let anyone hurt you." ”

Er Zhen and Xiang Wei came into the door with the supper of the Second Highness, seeing this scene, they were so sad that they shed tears, and then persuaded for a while, the mother and son calmed down, after they retreated, Er Zhen saw Xiang Wei wiping her tears, and said angrily: "Silly girl, don't cry, we are like this, what can I do?" ”

Xiangwei asked Er Zhen: "Is it the queen's mother who bullied our mother?" ”

Er Zhen sighed: "Who knows, the queen mother, she can't see through it, and she will never know what she is thinking." As soon as she lowered her head, she saw Xiangwei gritting her teeth and hating her eyes, and hurriedly persuaded, "Don't be like this, it makes people upset, we all stay by the side of the mother, doesn't the queen just want to wait for the prince in the belly, I don't know if God will give it or not." As he spoke, he saw Concubine Shu coming out of the house of the Second Highness, Er Zhen ordered Xiangwei to follow, and then the night was deep, only the sound of wind and snow, ** passed.

In the blink of an eye, everything was as usual in the palace, and Concubine Shu asked the second prince to go to the study to study, and the palace people felt that she had been emotionally stable for a while, thinking that the emperor's life and death were uncertain, and the queen controlled everything, and she was uncomfortable. I just don't know if I will continue to toss in a few days, but now that the palace is so deserted, this little thing can be regarded as a lively one.

Outside the imperial city, Mrs. Song was still under "house arrest" at home, Song Yuan asked for a day and didn't ask anything, she went to find Linglong, and her sister didn't see each other. Song Yuan didn't dare to think about anything to the queen easily, if he took the initiative to see the queen and take the initiative to care about these inexplicable things, he would be arrogant and take himself too seriously, he was just a minister in front of the queen, and many of them were not his turn to talk more.

Song Yuan always felt that something was going to happen, and he was very unsure.

And in the next few days, Min'er also refused Yunshang's visit, saying that it was inconvenient to go back and forth on snowy days, saying that Yun'er was still young and always blowing the wind was not good for her health, and so on were not excuses, Yunshang could only take the child to play at home, because even Linglong didn't see her.

On this day, Shen Zhe came home, Yunshang was losing his temper at his son, the little guy was very aggrieved, seeing his father was very jealous, he lowered his head and worried that his father would scold him for his mother, but Shen Zhe picked up his son and coaxed him: "Your mother is a woman, we men don't care about women, she will be fine in a while, Yun'er is as generous as her father, don't take it to heart." ”

Shen Yun was happy in his heart, hugging his father's neck and sprinkling coquettishly.

Yun Sheng was happy to see their father and son intimacy, but the frizzy mood for no reason in the past few days was not good, Shen Zhe was busy and had no time to accompany her, and he couldn't enter the palace and couldn't see Linglong, and his son always chased and asked why he couldn't go to the palace to find Yuan Yuan's sister, she couldn't hold back just now, so she lost her temper. At this time, he said guiltily: "I don't know what's wrong with me, it's like eating gunpowder these days." ”

Shen Zhe said casually: "Please ask the doctor to prescribe some decoction to clear the fire, just drink two bowls, are you almost the day of the moon letter?" ”

Yunshang was stunned for a moment, counted and counted with her fingers, and looked at her husband in surprise, Shen Zhe saw her thoughts from her eyes, and immediately ordered her subordinates to ask for a doctor. When the doctor came, Yunshang was always stupidly happy, babbling that Shen Zhe was too careless, but he regretted it: "If it really is, I really want to tell the queen mother, and the queen mother will be very happy, but now the mother doesn't let me enter the palace, and it's not interesting for me to go to see the queen mother alone." ”

Shen Zhe took his son's handwriting and asked his wife meaningfully: "The queen still won't let you enter the palace?" ”

Yunshang nodded puzzled: "It's very strange, it is said that I don't want to go these days, and there is no serious reason." But I heard that Niangniang seems to be a little strange, it is said that these days Yuan Yuan and Qin'er are sleeping in the Longevity Palace. ”

Shen Zhe turned his gaze back and taught his son to write without distraction.

That night, after Yunshang fell asleep, Shen Zhe quietly left home, rode a horse to the outskirts of the city, the emperor was concerned about the government as always, some major decisions these days, although they came from Shen Zhe's mouth, were actually the emperor's intentions, and therefore Shen Zhe's style of action was said to be very similar to when the emperor was there.

There is still no one who notices the emperor's movements, and many people may default that the emperor is dead, even if there is suspicion, Shen Zhe will not let them notice it, but he doesn't know when Xiang Ye plans to hide. He did something deliberately, he guessed that one day his brother would come to his senses, but if everything was safe then, it didn't matter what the consequences would be. It's just that right now, he's worried that Min'er will be too radical and will do something that even he doesn't dare to think about.

"Did she find out?" Xiang Ye listened to Shen Zhe talk about the situation in the palace, frowned, Mrs. Song was under house arrest, Min'er went to Anle Palace in person, and sent the children to the Longevity Palace, and did not let Yunshang and them enter the palace, she seemed to be moving a place for herself, but what was she going to do in Shangyang Palace?

Shen Zhe said coldly: "Brother, will you really show up at a critical moment, but you are here, obviously you don't know anything." ”

Xiang Ye looked at his younger brother seriously: "Because I trust you, you are my eyes and ears." ”

Shen Zhe said: "But I can't be busy myself, your younger brother and sister are pregnant again, and giving birth to Yun'er has made her suffer a lot, this time I want to give all my time to her and the child." ”

Xiang Ye smiled: "Is it going to be born in a moment?" Ten days, you can't give it to me, this matter is over, you can stay at home with him every day. ”

Shen Zhe's heart sank, maybe it's been these two days.

After the court dispersed the next morning, Shen Zhe was going to enter the palace to ask the queen mother for peace, but he saw Song Yuan wandering outside the harem, as if he was hesitating to ask to see the queen, he stepped forward and talked a few words, Song Yuan frankly said that he felt that his wife and sister had behaved strangely after leaving the palace that day, and he was worried that the queen would have something wrong.

Shen Zhe patted him on the shoulder and said coldly: "You are also a person who has seen the world in Xiping Mansion, some words are hard to hear, but I am the first and last time to warn you, the queen will always be the queen, your eyes can only see her skirt dragging on the ground, never want to look at her face." ”

Song Yuan's face was tense, but he unconsciously straightened his waist, as if to defend the dignity of admiration and love in his heart, and said calmly: "The general is too worried." ”

They are smart people to each other, so they won't break up unhappily, but Song Yuan still gave up the idea of going to see the queen, Shen Zhe saw the queen mother in the Longevity Palace, and he didn't go to the Shangyang Palace again, but the wind in the palace today has a bit of a strange atmosphere, and Shen Zhe doesn't understand whether he thinks too much, or if something really happens.

That night, Qingya was sent by the queen to the Longevity Palace to see how the little princesses were doing, she didn't know that she had been arranged by the queen long ago, and not long after she left, Xiangwei, who was supposed to be in Anle Palace, appeared in the Shangyang Palace, she walked into the dormitory from the front hall generously, and everyone saw it.

In the Longevity Palace, Yuan Yuan and Qin'er saw Qingya, so they pestered and refused to let go, in front of their grandmother, the little one didn't know how to say, Yuan Yuan already knew how to avoid the imperial grandmother, so he quietly told Qingya that she wanted to go back to Shangyang Palace.

Qingya was ordered not to take the princess back, and the queen mother has always liked to be lively and like children, and she is happy to take care of the queen, but she is not easy to do, so she can only stay for a while to accompany the princesses.

But this ** is destined to not be peaceful, she was accompanying the princess to pick up the flower rope, Mama Lin hurriedly ran to call her out, and said with a pale face: "The Shangyang Palace is gone, and the queen's bedroom is burning." ”

Qingya's soul was about to be scared out, and she couldn't wait to put on a snow suit and rushed out, close to the edge of the Taiye Pool, and saw that the Shangyang Hall was in flames, and there were already guards rushing to the long bridge, and Qingya wanted to get closer, but was stopped by them.

"Niangniang is inside, you bring Niangniang out." Qingya shouted loudly and grabbed the people around her, "Go and tell General Shen and ask General Shen to enter the palace immediately." ”

However, at this moment, Shen Zhe's horse had just stopped outside the suburb of the city, and the guards in front of the door wanted to pull the horse in for him, Shen Zhe said: "No need, the emperor will use it later." ”
