Chapter 141 Concubine Rou
"Without Lingshu, how can I grow vegetables in winter?"
Chu Cong raised his eyebrows, leaned forward, and inhaled the faint jasmine scent from her body. His eyes were deep and deep: "Ling Shu, give me another child."
Chu Cong directly carried the person sideways into the inner room. Shen Lingshu lowered her head shyly, thinking: She is still using contraception now. She will definitely not be able to have another child until the child is older.
The night was long and the hibiscus tent was warm. In the following days, Chu Cong seemed to have taken root in Youlan Courtyard.
Because of the rumors, Qi Qing's yard seemed to have become a deserted yard. In the entire palace, only Shen Lingshu's yard was the most lively.
In Qiutang Courtyard, when Concubine Fang heard the news, she was silent for a moment before she said, "Madam Gui, you are right. We need to take a long-term view."
You must never take action until you are absolutely sure!
On the 30th day of the twelfth lunar month, Concubine Fang appeared at the gate of the palace on time. When she saw Shen Lingshu being escorted out by the prince, her pupils shrank slightly and her hands holding the heater tightened. After not seeing her for a month, Shen Lingshu looked even more beautiful in her pink dress with white fur.
Concubine Fang's eyes fell on the two children held by the wet nurse behind them. Her eyebrows were gentle and she said, "Sister Shen, there is charcoal burning in the carriage. Come on, get in the carriage and warm up. Don't let the two children get cold."
"Thank you, Concubine."
Shen Lingshu replied with a smile, without any ambiguity. In order to let the child breathe less wind, she took the child into the carriage, which slowly drove towards the palace.
Zhu Xin asked worriedly, "Master, why is it so scary when the concubine laughs?"
"This is our first time attending a palace banquet, so be careful." Shen Lingshu reminded. Since she knew she would be attending the palace banquet on New Year's Eve, Shen Lingshu had made a lot of preparations in advance.
Passing through one palace gate after another, Shen Lingshu looked at the high city walls and the square sky, and vaguely understood why it was like entering a deep sea once you entered the palace!
"Concubine, Lingshu's mother and daughter are now in your care." Chu Cong looked at Concubine Fang. His words were also urging Concubine Fang to take good care of Shen Lingshu's mother and daughter.
"Don't worry, Your Highness." Concubine Fang lowered her eyes and responded. She watched Chu Cong turn around and talk to Shen Lingshu out of the corner of her eye. Her face was still full of tenderness.
"Lingshu, you go with the concubine to pay a visit to Concubine Rou. There are many people here today. Nanny Hua came out from the palace. If you have anything to ask her, ask her." Chu Cong gave a few instructions and then changed the route to pay a visit to his father.
"Sister Chen is indeed the apple of the prince's eye." Concubine Fang looked at Chu Cong's departing back, and there was a hint of bitterness in her words.
"You're joking, Concubine. I'm just benefiting from An'an and Beibei." Shen Lingshu smiled. When Concubine Fang mentioned the child, her face changed.
Concubine Fang snorted coldly and headed towards Concubine Rou's Qionghua Palace.
Qionghua Palace.
Shen Lingshu had no time to marvel at the prosperity of the palace, she only smelled the faint fragrance, which gave people a sense of elegance.
"Greetings to Concubine Rou."
Concubine Fang stood in front and bowed to greet them. Shen Lingshu was impeccable in her etiquette.
"No need to be polite."
Concubine Rou's voice was human, unlike Concubine Shu's condescending voice. Concubine Rou's voice was gentle from the bottom of her heart. She said, "Please take a seat."
The palace maids came over with stools. Before they sat down, they heard Concubine Rou's voice: "This is Concubine Shen, right? She looks like a flower."
Concubine Rou had not gone hunting before, and when she was offering sacrifices at Lingtai Mountain, she was not feeling well, so she did not go out.
At this time, it was the first time she saw Shen Lingshu. She looked at least 50% similar to Gu Qiurong. She was wearing a pink dress and stood there, which made Concubine Fang look like a green leaf.
Coupled with her fertile constitution, it is no wonder that she was the first to give birth to twin daughters.
"It is my honor to receive praise from Your Majesty." Shen Lingshu said generously.
"good."
Concubine Rou admired Shen Lingshu's generosity. Her clear eyes looked innocent. She smiled and said, "Come, bring the twins to me for a look."
Shen Lingshu stood up again and ordered the nanny to bring the twins over. Shen Lingshu introduced them, "My lady, the one in pink is the elder sister, and the one in green is the younger sister."
On weekdays, the colors of the sisters' clothes are fixed, which makes it easier to recognize them.
"It's really good looking."
Concubine Rou took off her armor, reached out and touched the child's cheek, and said in surprise: "It's exactly the same!"
"yes."
Shen Lingshu had a good impression of Concubine Rou because of her action of taking off her armor.
Concubine Fang, who was standing by, watched this scene with her nails almost digging into her flesh. Nanny Gui quietly pulled Concubine Fang's clothes. Concubine Fang took a deep breath and adjusted her mood. In the blink of an eye, she was the dignified and generous Concubine Fang again.
The palace banquet on New Year's Eve was very lively. Shen Lingshu wanted to keep staring at the two children. Fortunately, the weather was good. After arriving at the palace banquet, there were only royal family members in the spacious palace.
Shen Lingshu sat behind Prince Lin, and next to her were the Crown Prince, the Crown Princess, and two concubines.
It had been half a year since she last saw Shen Lingyi on the day of the full moon. When she saw Shen Lingyi again, she was a little shocked. After all, Shen Lingyi had gotten away from the matter of being her savior quite quickly.
only……
Shen Lingshu glanced at her silently, and always felt that Shen Lingyi was no longer the arrogant eldest lady of the Shen family, but had a kind of...charm, as if the whole person gave people a feeling of natural charm.
"The Emperor has arrived."
The eunuch's announcement sounded, and everyone stood up and saluted: "Long live the emperor."
On the golden dragon throne on the high platform, Emperor Jingming, dressed in a dragon robe, stood high above: "Stand up."
Even if there were only members of the royal family, concubines in the palace, and the backyards of several princes, the palace would be full at this time.
Shen Lingshu also saw the prince's three sons and one daughter. The princess was fertile. Chu Chengze, Chu Chengen and Chu Mingjiao were all born from the princess's womb.
Chu Chengwen, who is slightly younger, was born to Concubine Du.
In Prince Heng's mansion, his son Chu Chengzhen and daughter Chu Mingzhu were both born to Prince Heng's wife. Chu Chengxiu, the son born to Concubine Gao, is now one and a half years old and is at the age of being naughty.
The crown prince's eldest son, Chu Chengze, was the oldest. He sat with his younger brothers and sisters. The young man was full of vigor and looked particularly noble.
She had seen the Crown Princess who was sweet on the outside but evil on the inside before. Concubine Du listened to the Crown Princess and did not look like a concubine, but rather someone who served the Crown Princess.
This was the first time she met Princess Heng. Compared to Concubine Gao who was arrogant, Princess Heng looked gentle and dignified.
"Woo~Wow~"
When the crying of a child was heard, Shen Lingshu subconsciously turned around to look at the twin sisters in the nanny's arms. Seeing that they were woken up and their eyes were rolling around, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Chengxiu, don't cry, don't cry."
When Concubine Gao saw her son crying, she quickly held him in her arms and comforted him.
