Chapter 221: Caught by Jin Yan

Shen Chuwei took a sip of the ginger sugar water and said, "It is not up to us to decide when to appoint a crown princess."

"That being said," Concubine Xu said indignantly, "Chang Liangdi's mother's family went to the battlefield to kill the enemy, and my father and brother also went to the battlefield to kill the enemy. Her family got all the good things."

Shen Chuwei looked at Concubine Xu's unwilling look, because Concubine Chang Liang had the support of the Empress!

I have watched two or three similar palace fighting dramas, in which the queens all supported their own family members to become crown princesses and queens.

What's more, the Queen has always wanted Chang Liangdi to be the Crown Princess.

Concubine Xu was extremely righteous. Seeing Shen Chuwei still calmly drinking tea, she said, "Aren't you in a hurry? If Chang Liangdi becomes the Crown Princess, she will have great power. Then our good days will be over."

Shen Chuwei said calmly: "Whether Chang Liangdi can become the Crown Princess is not up to us, so why worry about it?"

"That being said, if Chang Liangdi is the Crown Princess, how can I confront her in the future? I feel depressed just thinking about it." Concubine Xu became angrier and angrier the more she thought about it.

Shen Chuwei couldn't help laughing when she heard that. She really liked watching Concubine Xu argue with people.

"You're still laughing?" Concubine Xu stared at her belly.

Shen Chuwei noticed the look in Xu Cefei's eyes, and subconsciously asked her while holding her stomach, "Hey! Why are you looking at my stomach?"

Concubine Xu was so angry that she couldn't make a promise. "Look at you, you have been serving the emperor for so long, but there is no news at all? If you were pregnant with a prince, you could still fight for it even without the support of your mother's family."

Shen Chuwei was a little embarrassed. She had just served the emperor in the bed, so how could she have a child so soon?

This month's menstruation has come~

When talking about menstruation, she touched her belly and felt a little uncomfortable.

Before leaving, Concubine Xu said, "Be more motivated. If that doesn't work, ask Doctor Yu to take a look. Don't let Concubine Chang Liang get the upper hand."

Chunxi came over with snacks and heard what Concubine Xu said. She used to dislike Concubine Xu, but now it seems that although Concubine Xu has a bad temper and likes to argue with people, she is not that cunning.

"My lady, Concubine Xu is so anxious as if she is not pregnant."

Shen Chuwei smiled when she thought of how Concubine Xu wanted to stuff a baby into her belly.

Chunxi said with a smile: "By the way, young lady, everything is fine in Xiyun Pavilion. The chickens and ducks are very fat. I just found out that they have laid an egg yesterday."

Shen Chuwei couldn't sit still when she heard this. "Really? She's already laid eggs. If she lays two more, she can hatch chicks."

"Oh, right, make a nest with cotton, put the eggs in it, and then put the hen in it."

"I understand." Chunxi finished the task at hand and went to Xiyun Pavilion to instruct the hatching of the chicks.

When I came back, I took the cloth to the garment factory again.

As soon as I reached the door, I saw Huaixiang from Xinlan Palace walking towards the garment manufacturing department.

Chunxi knew that Chang Liangdi wanted to become the Crown Princess with the help of the Queen, and the two of them disliked each other.

She walked straight in, found Eunuch Hua, and explained her purpose.

"The weather is getting hotter and hotter, so I took some thinner fabrics and made two dresses for my little mistress."

Anyone with money in the palace is well-informed and knows who is favored and who is not, like a mirror.

Chunxi is from the Hehuan Palace, and His Majesty visits there every other day, so naturally she is favored.

Eunuch Hua said with a smile: "Miss Chunxi, no problem, is it urgent? I'll have someone rush them out immediately."

Chunxi smiled and said, "Please hurry out. My young mistress will need to wear it in a few days."

Eunuch Hua replied with a flattering smile: "No problem, I guarantee that the embroiderers will make it within five days."

Huaixiang came over with some cloth in her arms and nudged Chunxi with her elbow.

Chunxi was caught off guard and took two steps back. When she looked up, she saw Huaixiang walking up to her with a righteous look and speaking with his chin raised.

"Eunuch Hua, my young mistress also wants to make some clothes. She needs to wear them urgently."

Eunuch Hua had long heard that Chang Liangdi was going to be promoted to Crown Princess, and he immediately said with a flattering smile, "Okay, okay, Miss Huaixiang, don't worry, I'll make it in the next few days."

Chunxi took two steps forward, nudged Huaixiang with his elbow, and snorted.

The aroma is so good.

Chunxi looked at Eunuch Hua, "Eunuch Hua, embroider peach blossoms. My master likes peach blossoms."

Eunuch Hua smiled and said, "Miss Chunxi, the clothing bureau has been busy making clothes for the ladies in the palaces these days. Can yours be delayed for two days?"

Chunxi asked unhappily, "Why? I came first, why do you want me to slow down?"

Huai Xiang said proudly, "What's the point of coming first? Can your young master be compared with my young master?"

Chunxi gritted her teeth and almost burst into a curse, but she endured it. Chang Liangdi would become the Crown Princess in the future, and it would be bad if she took revenge on him.

Eunuch Hua smiled and said, "Miss Chunxi, wait a few days. When the food is ready, send someone to deliver it to her."

"Then please hurry up, Eunuch Hua. My young lady is in a hurry to get dressed." Chunxi said, then turned and left.

Huaixiang smiled smugly, followed him, and glanced at Chunxi with disdain, "My young lady will soon become the Crown Princess. Everything must be decided by my master. Do you understand?"

"What's so great about being the Crown Princess? If you have the guts, let His Highness go to Xinlan Palace!"

After Chunxi finished speaking, he snorted and turned away.

Being ignored, Huai Xiang stamped her feet, "What the hell, wait until my mistress becomes the Crown Princess, and I'll make you pay."

Chunxi returned to Hehuan Palace. Although she was unhappy, she did not tell Shen Chuwei for fear that she would feel uncomfortable.

Shen Chuwei finished her dinner early and had nothing to do, so she took out a pen and paper and placed them on the desk.

I haven't painted for a long time, so I'll practice my brushwork today.

After sharpening her pencil, she began to draw seriously.

Sketching requires patience and is also a great way to divert attention.

Shen Chuwei's patience is especially good when things are good, but when things are bad, she can't sit still for a moment.

The incense burning in the house has the effect of calming the mind.

As I was painting, I became so interested that I forgot about time.

Chunxi came in and reminded, "My lady, His Highness probably won't be here tonight, you should go to bed early."

Shen Chuwei said without turning his head: "Got it, I'll take a rest later."

After Chunxi left, she saw the prince coming. A look of surprise flashed in her eyes and she bowed.

Xiao Jinyan signaled her to step back.

Chunxi retreated happily, feeling proud in her heart. Although the Crown Princess was not my lady's, it would be enough as long as His Highness treated me well. As long as I was favored, I would not be afraid of being bullied.

When Xiao Jinyan walked in, he saw Shen Chuwei sitting at the desk. He walked over slowly, lowered his eyes, and his gaze fell on the paper, which was a half-finished painting.

The painting shows a man. Except for his eyebrows and eyes, the lines elsewhere are very rough. However, one can still see that the man has a slender figure, leaning in a carriage, holding a book in his hand and reading it seriously.

That look looks very familiar.

"Xiaojiu, who are you drawing?"
