"Greetings to Your Majesty, long live long live long live......"

"Queen Mother Chitose Chitose Chitose ......"

Everyone who had just gotten up had to kneel on the ground again to welcome the arrival of the emperor.

Shen Qiaoshen, who hadn't had time to sit down, had no choice but to follow Shen Guifei to meet him.

In the interval between the salutes, the queen's bright yellow court clothes flashed, and Shen Qiaoshen suddenly remembered, no wonder he always felt that something was wrong today, it turned out that the queen Li did not appear all day.

"Excuse me."

Emperor Chongming strode over, picked up Shen Guifei, who was about to salute, and climbed the white jade steps covered with a thick carpet hand in hand, but left the queen behind.

After Emperor Chongming took Shen Guifei to salute the Queen Mother, the queen who followed behind walked forward unhurriedly and bowed shallowly.

"Greetings to the Queen Mother."

Before the Queen Mother could speak, she got up on her own, walked to the phoenix chair next to her and sat down.

Empress Dowager Lin frowned, but didn't say anything, turned around and talked to the emperor and the concubine.

Empress Li was originally just the side concubine of Emperor Chongming during the princely period, and even if the concubine died in childbirth, she was not corrected.

After Emperor Chongming ascended the throne, he was the first to make Concubine Yuan the queen, and this concubine Li naturally could only be a successor forever.

Nowadays, only the old people in the court still remember that Emperor Chongming's Empress Yuan, surnamed Shen, is called Qianyao.

Born in the Shen Mansion in the capital, she is now the eldest sister of Shen Guifei.

is also Shen Qiaoshen's eldest aunt.

For so many years, Shen Guifei has favored the six palaces, and after giving birth to the Nine Emperor Princes, she was promoted to the imperial concubine, the same as the deputy queen.

But Shen Qiaoshen knew that Emperor Chongming and his eldest aunt who died early were the real childhood sweethearts, and their love was sincere.

It's just that for some reason, after Emperor Chongming ascended the throne, it seems that there is little mention of the Yuan Empress Shen.

And Shen Qiaoshen only learned about these by eavesdropping on Xiao Li's conversation with his staff in his previous life.

Looking at the attitude of Empress Li towards Empress Dowager Lin, I also knew that the relationship between this mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, who is the most noble in the world, is not harmonious.

It is said that the queen is the master of the harem, but the Empress Dowager Lin is the mother of the king of a country.

Empress Dowager Lin was able to fight all the way from the harem of the first emperor, and finally supported her young son to ascend the throne as the emperor, relying not only on the favor of the first emperor.

At least Shen Qiaoshen knew that whether it was scheming or scheming, the Empress Li in front of him was still far behind.

But over the years, both Empress Dowager Lin and Concubine Shen Guifei seem to have scruples about Empress Li.

You must know that this harem is a woman's world after all, not to mention that Emperor Chongming has always treated Empress Li coldly, if you really want to abolish Empress Li, there are countless ways.

In the deep palace, human life is like a mustard. It's easy to make a person disappear silently.

Shen Qiao was deeply touched by this.

Here, Shen Qiao was suspicious, and Shen Guifei, who was sitting at the top, was introducing her niece to the emperor.

When he learned of Shen Qiaoshen's identity, Emperor Chongming raised his eyebrows and said loudly:

"Where is the daughter of the Shen family?"

As soon as the words fell, everyone in the hall was silent, Xu was unfamiliar with the title of 'Shen family's daughter', and then whispered:

"The daughter of the Shen family? Which Shen family? ”

"In the entire Great Jin Dynasty, there can still be a few Shen family ......"

Shen Qiao Shen had already sat down with Old Madam Shen, and when he heard the summons, he immediately stood up and walked to the center of the hall.

"Shen Qiaoshen, the daughter of General Jianwei, meet Your Majesty."

Immediately after that, Emperor Chongming continued:

Shen Qiao Shen ...... I remember you, you are the youngest daughter of Zicheng, I haven't seen you for many years, but you have grown so big. ”

As he spoke, he beckoned Shen Qiaoshen to stand closer, looked at it for a moment, seemed to be in a trance for a moment, and then smiled:

"I still remember that when you entered the palace on Wanshou Festival that year, you were still a shy little girl, and now you are also a big girl."

After a pause, he added: "It's a bit similar to your aunt." ”

Hearing this, Shen Qiaoshen's heart jumped, but his face remained unchanged at all.

blinked, and replied softly: "The imperial concubine is thousands of concubines, where can the courtiers be as good as their aunts." ”

Shen Qiaoshen's eyes were pure, his tone was soft but sincere, and his determined appearance made Emperor Chongming feel very interesting, so he laughed out loud, turned to Shen Guifei and said:

"You precious niece, but you don't look like her father like a ruffian."

Shen Guifei glanced at Emperor Chongming and said with a smile:

"If you hear Your Majesty say this, my brother doesn't know how long he will be angry. If you don't come back at the end of the year, there will be no one to drink with Your Majesty. His Majesty quietly hid the pear blossom white, and I don't know who will be cheaper in the end. ”

As he spoke, he turned his head and bent the corners of his mouth slyly at Shen Qiao.

"You woman, I am a brother and sister to Zicheng, where can he be so stingy, he also brought a letter in the good news last month saying that when he returned to Beijing later, he would definitely bring a few cars of good wine from South Vietnam."

The Shen family has been responsible for guarding the southern border for generations, and the Nanyue wine is famous all over the world, and Shen Yanyan's father and son have been at war with the Nanyue people for several years, so they are naturally very clear.

Every year when I return to Beijing to report on my work, among the trophies I bring back, there will also be good wine from South Vietnam.

Seeing the emperor and the concubine arguing like an ordinary husband and wife. Even if others couldn't hear the specific content of the conversation between the two, they could see that Emperor Chongming's attitude towards Shen Guifei was also very intimate.

As a result, the people present had a deeper understanding of the Shen family's honor.

Suddenly, the eyes cast on the three brothers and sisters of the Shen family became more and more hot.

Among them, the most eye-catching is Shen Qiaoshen, who has just been given by the emperor to sit next to Shen Guifei.

Because of this palace banquet, it is stipulated that only officials above the third rank are allowed to participate with their children.

Therefore, the number of people in the temple is not large, and most of them are seated as family units.

Old Madam Shen took the two brothers, Shen Qiaoqi and Shen Qiaoran, to sit at the front of the hall.

There were no other concubines present today, so Shen Qiao sat under Shen Guifei, that is, with the princesses of Emperor Chongming.

As soon as Shen Qiaoshen sat down, a figure came over beside him.

turned his head and saw that it was Xiao Mingwei, the sixth princess from Shen Guifei.

Emperor Chongming attaches great importance to the education of his children, does not pay too much attention to the princes, and is also very concerned about the talents and behaviors of the princesses.

Even if there is a palace banquet today, these young princes and princesses still have to go to school.

So this is the first time that the sixth princess has seen her cousin, who is often read by her mother.

Her Royal Highness, who is only ten years old, is very curious about her cousin, who is like a jar of traditional Chinese medicine.

Looking at the little person in front of him who was almost hanging on him, Shen Qiaoshen felt very helpless.

In her past and present lives, she had little experience in dealing with children.

She is the youngest child in the family, the only girl, and has always been the most favored.

Because she is sick and weak, and her personality is introverted and withdrawn, she almost never has children to get close to her.

Shen Qiaoshen's forehead jumped, and then a gentle smile bloomed, trying to separate the young pendant from himself.

But no matter how hard she tried, the sixth princess still pulled Shen Qiaoshen's sleeves tightly, looking at her with big round eyes.

In front of the public, the other party was a princess, and in the end, Shen Qiaoshen could only helplessly, staring at the little cousin hanging on him.

This scene made the princesses sitting around laugh.

"You are the Shen family's medicine jar?"
