Shen Liangdi was imprisoned in the cold palace and confined under house arrest, but the prince still had no children.

This matter has long become a topic of conversation in the harem.

When Concubine Yun learned that the Queen had gone to the Eastern Palace, she deliberately waited on the road and used Yin'er to deliberately provoke the Queen.

The Queen has been monopolizing the Emperor these days, and it is difficult for her to see him.

Seeing the queen coming from afar, Concubine Yun walked over with Yin'er in hand and stepped forward to greet her: "Your Majesty the Queen."

Yin'er bowed and saluted very well.

"Yin'er pays his respects to the Empress Dowager."

Yin'er is already three and a half years old. His pronunciation is much clearer than last year and his voice is babyish, which is very endearing.

Concubine Yun looked at her grandson with eyes full of joy: "Empress, don't you think Yin'er is very smart? He is only three and a half years old, but he can perform etiquette and bows very well. However, the Crown Prince and all the princes in the future will surely be this smart."

The words and deeds are a reminder that the prince has no offspring yet, what a failure~

In the past, the Queen would have been so angry and jealous of Yun Xian that she would have died.

Now?

Her grandson will be out soon, it's just a matter of time.

Her grandson is the smartest and cutest!

As for Yun's pretentiousness, the Queen didn't take it seriously at all.

"Empress Yun, you really speak the truth. How outstanding is the Crown Prince? The children he gave birth to are naturally outstanding. Yin'er still needs to work hard, otherwise he will be overtaken by his brother, and then it will not be good. Concubine Yun, what do you think?"

When it comes to Concubine Yun showing off, the Queen always speaks rudely. When Concubine Yun shows off, she gets angry.

Concubine Yun looked unhappy. "What are you talking about, Queen? Yin is already three and a half years old, and the Crown Prince still has no children. We have to wait at least a few more years."

I snorted in my heart. Is it because the prince is unable to do it? It may take several years for him to give birth.

The Queen understood exactly what Concubine Yun meant, but what disappointed Concubine Yun was that her grandson would be born soon.

"So let Yin'er work hard. Otherwise, given the big age gap, he will be worse than his brother. Wouldn't that be even more embarrassing?"

Concubine Yun's face turned green with anger. "I'm sorry to have caused the Empress to worry. Yin'er will have a teacher to teach him. The Empress should still worry about letting the Crown Prince give birth to a child as soon as possible so that the Emperor can be at ease."

The queen glanced at Yin'er. What was the big deal about him being able to bow and salute at the age of three? Her two sons could recite poems fluently at the age of three, but Yin'er, who was not very talented, was praised very highly by Concubine Yun.

"No matter how good the teacher is, it is useless if the student is not smart. As for the prince's offspring, there is no need for me to worry about it. I can just wait to hold the emperor's grandson."

Concubine Yun's face looked extremely ugly.

"It's so hot today. Princess Yun is not hot, but Yin'er is still a child and can't stand the scorching sun. If he gets heat stroke, it's no joke."

After the queen finished speaking, she walked away with dignified and graceful steps.

Concubine Yun was almost so angry that she got heatstroke. Wasn't it because of her mother's family that she became the queen?

If you weren’t the queen, I wonder if you would dare to be so ostentatious.

Concubine Yun was very angry and did not notice that Yin'er's face was flushed and his eyes were abnormal.

It was not until Yin'er fainted that Yun Fei reacted and her legs went limp with fear.

After the imperial physician examined him, he found out that he had heatstroke.

When the queen found out about this, she was furious and punished Concubine Yun by confining her to her room for a month.

* The red glutinous corn and sweet glutinous corn in the backyard were ripe. Chunxi broke off a few ripe ones and put them into the pot to steam.

Shen Chuwei looked at her round belly and asked Chunxi to make a loose dress for her. In fact, it was a modified version of Hanfu with a high waist. It was both beautiful and cool, and most importantly, it was not easy to see her pregnant belly.

When Concubine Xu and Tao Liangyuan arrived, the corn was cooked. Chunxi cooled it with cold water before serving it on the table.

The color of snow glutinous corn is very dark, very close to the color of mulberry purple rice.

Concubine Xu was shocked when she saw the snowy corn. If Shen Chuwei hadn't said it was edible, she would have suspected that someone had poisoned it. It was so dark.

Shen Chuwei has already picked up the corn and started eating.

"This is the bloody glutinous corn. It is indeed very different." Tao Liangyuan picked up one and took a bite out of curiosity. It was indeed glutinous and tasted a little different from yellow corn.

Concubine Xu was not polite and picked up one to chew. "Shen Liang Di, where did you get such a novel thing?"

Shen Chuwei said without blushing: "I live in the countryside, and I have seen a lot of new things."

Concubine Xu believed it because she was born in the capital and had been spoiled since childhood.

"Yes, I have never seen what the countryside is like."

Tao Liangyuan asked while chewing corn: "I heard that Chang Liangyuan came to Xiaoxiang Pavilion. What is she doing here?"

Shen Chuwei said: "Because the Queen is here, she came over."

Concubine Xu had no feelings for Chang Liangyuan, and after the fake pregnancy recipe, she hated her even more. This time, she felt that she had bad intentions.

"Is she trying to play some tricks again?"

Tao Liangyuan paused while chewing the corn and reminded Shen Liangdi seriously, "You'd better be careful."

"Shen Chuwei bit the corn and said: It's okay, I'm not afraid of her."

"You are pregnant now. If Chang Liangyuan finds out, she will definitely resort to some tricks." After saying this, Concubine Xu stared at Shen Chuwei's belly with some concern. Because she was pregnant with twins, her belly was much bigger than the day before.

Shen Chuwei lowered her head and glanced at her belly. "I didn't let her see it when I came last time."

Tao Liangyuan said: "The women in the palace are scheming against each other. They will do anything to win favor. It's better to be careful."

Shen Chuwei nodded and agreed.

At this time, Qingying walked in with a group of people.

Shen Chuwei and the others looked over curiously, and saw many things, silks and satins, gold and silver jewelry. Qingying had a kind face: "Shen Liangdi, these are all gifts from the Queen to you."

"Dear Shen Liang Di, take a good rest. I will go back and report." Qingying went back with a faint smile.

After everyone left, Concubine Xu saw the rewards and was surprised: "Why is the Queen so kind to you? I remember a few months ago, the Queen asked Your Highness to share the rewards equally."

"The things that the Empress gave as rewards are all good things." Tao Liangyuan touched the silk and satin. "This is the Shu brocade offered by Gusu. It is not the common Shu brocade. This one is made of the best emerald silk and has a complicated craftsmanship."

Shen Chuwei didn't understand all this. She touched the fabric and found it was indeed comfortable. It would definitely be comfortable to wear once it was made into clothes.

"Tao Liangyuan is different. You can tell by just touching it." Concubine Xu also touched the material curiously and looked at the patterns.

"Of course. I heard that there are very few green silkworms and only two pieces of cloth can be woven every year, which are strictly for making clothes for the empress and the emperor." Tao Liangyuan's family is wealthy and she was fortunate to have used such Shu brocade. Because money makes the world go round, she was still able to get some despite the high price.

Concubine Xu was extremely surprised. She looked at Shen Chuwei with some excitement, "The Queen is really so kind to you that she gave such a precious Shu brocade to Shen Liangdi."

After admiring the fabric, Tao Liangyuan turned around and asked in confusion, "Why is the queen suddenly so nice to you?"

Concubine Xu also looked over curiously.

This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~

Shen Chuwei looked at the two people in front of her and explained, "Maybe it's because I'm pregnant?"

Concubine Xu and Tao Liangyuan said almost in unison, "Does the Queen know that you are pregnant?"

Shen Chuwei nodded vigorously, "Yes, the Queen has a sharp eye, and nothing can be hidden from her."

Concubine Xu suddenly realized, "No wonder he treats you so well."

Tao Liangyuan pondered for a long time and asked, "What I'm curious about is that the Queen didn't make this public. What does she want to do?"

Shen Chuwei hooked her finger at the two of them.

Concubine Xu and Tao Liangyuan came over curiously.

Shen Chuwei whispered the queen's thoughts into their ears.

After hearing this, Concubine Xu was stunned, because someone did something for her that she dared not do. She was excited and looking forward to that famous scene.

She asked again: "Does the Queen really want to do this?"

Shen Chuwei nodded, "Yeah."

Tao Liangyuan was full of admiration, "Sure enough, the old ones are the wisest. Only the queen dares to confront the emperor like this."

Concubine Xu smiled with her eyebrows curved, "The Queen is capable of dealing with us. If there is a grudge, she can really help us avenge it."

Tao Liangyuan couldn't help laughing. This joke was from a storybook, which she happened to have read.

Shen Chuwei couldn't help but laugh too.

Concubine Xu and Tao Liangyuan learned a lot of jokes~

Xiaoxiang Pavilion was very lively during this period. The Queen, Concubine Xu, and Tao Liangyuan took turns coming, and any delicious food would be sent to Xiaoxiang Pavilion.

Even so, Shen Chuwei was still greedy. What she was craving for was not the chicken soup with cakes or rice dumplings or corn, but the stir-fried crayfish.

It has been a long time since she came to ancient times, and it has been a long time since she last ate crayfish.

My mouth is watering now.

"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law."

When Shen Chuwei heard Xiao Jinyu's voice, her eyes lit up. She raised her delicate little face and looked out the window. Xiao Jinyu's slender body was standing outside the window. At first glance, he really looked like Xiao Jinyan.

"Sister-in-law, I brought you roast duck." Xiao Jinyu happily raised the oil paper bag in his hand.

Shen Chuwei didn't want to eat roast duck now. She held the oil paper bag and looked at Xiao Jinyu expectantly, "I want to eat crayfish. Can you get it for me?"

Xiao Jinyu was confused: "Crayfish? What is it?"

Shen Chu was stunned for a moment. Were there no crayfish in ancient times?

She waved her hands and said, "Forget it, I'd better taste it in my dream."

Seeing that Shen Chuwei was not very happy, Xiao Jinyu said, "Sister-in-law, I came to tell you that the prince is on his way and will be back in Beijing within five days."

Shen Chuwei perked up after hearing that, "It's pretty fast."

As soon as Xiao Jinyu left, the queen arrived.

Shen Chuwei was gnawing on a roast duck leg when she was seen by the Queen.

In order to prevent the queen from forbidding her to eat, she tore off a duck leg and stuffed it into the queen's hand, "Queen, eat the roasted duck leg."

The queen didn't hesitate to take the duck leg and took a bite. It tasted good.

Only then did Shen Chuwei continue to gnaw on the duck leg with peace of mind.

When Chunxi came in, she saw the young lady gnawing on a duck leg. She wanted to remind her, but the Queen was also gnawing on a duck leg, so she didn't dare to speak. She subconsciously thought that the roast duck was brought by the Queen.

Because every time the queen came, she would bring food for the young lady. She came almost every day and brought food every day.

After the queen finished eating the duck leg, she wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief and started talking about business.

"I've brought the imperial physician here to check your pulse."
