After reading the storybook of "The Case of the Chopping of Beauty", the youngest son Li Chengyou made a fake paper guillotine with some paper. He then caught frogs in the pond every day and beheaded them with the paper guillotine.
The two sons born from the same womb have completely different personalities.
"Master." Cai Lian came over happily, her eyes smiling, "The Emperor sent you a letter."
Shen Wei took a sip of hot tea and tore open the paper.
In the envelope, there was only a thin piece of rice paper, with a short sentence on it, and the black ink was steady and powerful.
The Emperor wrote:
[The flowers are blooming on the roadside, you can go home slowly.] 】
Shen Wei smiled and put the letter away.
In the Donghuashan Villa in the spring, peach blossoms on the back mountain are blooming like crimson clouds. The children were chasing each other in the sea of flowers, and their silver bell-like laughter reached Shen Wei's ears.
Shen Wei stood up: "Cai Lian, we will leave for Beijing tomorrow."
...
...
The news that the Queen Mother and Shen were about to return to the palace quickly spread throughout the inner court of the imperial palace.
Inside Changxin Palace, the roses in the courtyard were blooming luxuriantly. Concubine Lu Xuan was sitting beside the cradle, looking after the sleeping baby in the cradle with several old maids.
"Shen returns to the palace?" Lu Xuan paused while fanning herself with the silk fan.
Shen, an old friend of the Emperor in his former residence, was said to have been very favored and gave birth to a daughter and two sons for the Emperor.
However, during the three years since Shen left the palace, the emperor never mentioned her. So much so that the palace gradually forgot about the existence of this person.
Xiao Qin said, "Master, Shen is very lucky. Her brother is the great general Shen Mieyue. The emperor took Shen back to the palace for the sake of General Shen."
If it weren't for General Shen, perhaps the Shen family would have been forgotten in Donghua Mountain and would never be able to return to Yanjing in their lifetime.
Lu Xuan asked: "What title did the emperor give to Shen?"
Xiaoqin replied: "The emperor hasn't given Shen a title yet, and hasn't even decided on a palace for her to live in. It's clear that the emperor doesn't think highly of Shen."
Lu Xuan breathed a sigh of relief.
The emperor is ultimately heartless, and no woman is an exception in being able to become the emperor. Shen was also a pitiful person. She spent three years alone outside, and after returning to the palace, she became a tool for the emperor to stabilize the previous dynasty.
Lu Xuan murmured to herself: "Shen has two sons and a general brother, so he should not be underestimated."
In the future, we have to find a way to get rid of all Shen’s children.
And she, Lu Xuan, will give birth to more children.
Lu Xuan stroked her flat belly. She had asked the imperial physician to check yesterday and found out that she was pregnant with another child. When the time is right, Lu Xuan will tell the emperor the good news.
Lu Xuan said to herself: "Maybe this pregnancy can make the emperor change his mind."
