Chapter 243



Chapter 243

Of course, not everyone has it.

Others can only wait for the rewards from the changing seasons.

Shen Chuliu doesn't care about these things, but some people can't get them, such as Yao Baolin.

So Shen Chuliu directly asked people to put away the things that she didn't use and were not suitable for the maids, and give them to Yao Baolin when she returned.

That night, the sea was calm.

The next morning, the news spread that Zhang Baolin's girl Butterfly had died.

Shen Chuliu was getting dressed, and he sighed when he heard this: "It's better to die. How can it be so easy to betray your master?"

No matter what benefits you negotiate with others, her life is trouble.

"It is said that he is seriously injured and cannot be cured." Zizhu said: "We don't know what happened. He is dead and cannot stay in the palace. Otherwise, he must have offended the master. He has been carried out. I am afraid that we can't find out what happened."

"As long as they weren't obviously poisoned, there's nothing to investigate." Shen Chuliu shook his head: "It's only been a few days, and three lives have been lost."

The baby in Meng Baolin's belly was gone, and Zhang Baolin and his servant were also gone.

"Yes, it's too cruel." Zizhu also sighed.

Unfortunately, the master and servant didn't know that Wen Xiaoyi dared to abort her own child, so how could she care about these things? The matter was just covered up.

Life in the palace was very good.

The first thing that makes people feel comfortable is that it’s not that hot.

In the next ten days or so, the emperor summoned some people from the Hanlin Academy to edit the book, so he didn't ask anyone to sleep with him.

But suddenly one day, Shen Chuliu was asked to serve him with writing materials.

Shen Chuliu was surprised: "Didn't they say that everyone in the Hanlin Academy is here?" Half of the people in the Hanlin Academy are here.

They are all relatively young, or they just joined this year.

For example, Lord Pei.

That is Shen Chuliu's cousin.

"Yes, they are all here. I am surprised too." Zizhu said.

Even so, no one thought it was inappropriate, they just felt surprised.

After all, nowadays, even at home, when fathers and brothers are entertaining guests, daughters and sisters can come out.

But outsiders are not allowed to enter the backyard easily.

Shen Chuliu nodded: "Since there are so many adults here, then dress more modestly. No need to be too flashy."

Zizhu and the others agreed and helped her change into a light yellow skirt and comb her hair into a snake bun, which was fastened with a pair of silver hollow hairpins inlaid with cat's eyes, and decorated with jewelry made of silver silk inlaid with tourmaline stones.

She also wore a few silk flowers and a matching silver pendant inlaid with cat's eye stones.

Because today is monotonous, I put on a silver necklace, which is also inlaid with cat's eye and tourmaline. It is very delicate and beautiful.

She also wore a white jade pendant around her waist.

Soon, she took Yuanxiao and Zirui to Haiyan Palace.

The side hall was the study, and Shen Chuliu was led in by Chusi.

"Long live the emperor, and all the gentlemen." Shen Chuliu smiled and bowed.

How could anyone dare to accept the gift? They hurriedly greeted her, "Hello, Empress Jing Xiuyi."

"No need to be so polite, come here." Qi Yixiu raised his hand.

Shen Chuliu walked over and was held by his hand: "I am also troubled by these books, so I asked my beloved concubine to serve me with pens and ink."

Shen Chuliu leaned over to take a look. On the table were some important events from various places. This was a chronicle.

"Your Majesty and all the gentlemen have worked hard." Shen Chuliu said with a smile.

Qi Yixiu smiled, pointed to a place and asked her to sit down. Shen Chuliu saw that there was still a lot of ink on Qi Yixiu's desk, so she didn't rush to grind the ink, but sat down to look at the book on the table first.

They were all written by the adults below and handed over to the emperor, who would review them before binding them into a book.

Below, Pei Ji looked at Empress Jing Xiuyi and thought, is this his cousin whom he has never met?

He was indeed a brilliant man. He couldn't have figured it out when he heard his mother talk about it that day.

I don't know how she has been doing in the past few years since entering the palace, but now she is at least one of the nine concubines. With a prince, she should be able to live a good life.

Today he is the subject and she is the empress, so they have no intention of recognizing each other.

As for hanging out, it’s better to just have the grandmother and mother at home. If they are too close, it would seem like they are trying to become relatives.

However, after all, they are my relatives, so I have to take a closer look at them.

While they were busy, he only saw Empress Jing Xiuyi sitting and reading a book for a while, then she got up to grind ink.

He skillfully added water to the inkstone in front of the emperor and took the ink stick in his hand.

He sat there leisurely for a while and then sat back down.

A young eunuch served her tea and she took a few sips.

She went back and forth like this for the entire morning. She even went out once in the middle and didn't even tell the emperor.

It's rare that the emperor doesn't care.

When it was almost noon, Qi Yixiu felt his shoulders were sore: "That's all for today, you don't have to come in the afternoon. We'll be busy for another day tomorrow and then we'll finish it."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Everyone responded quickly.

"It's my fault too. I asked you to come here to escape the heat, but you got so busy. Fortunately, you're almost done." Qi Yixiu said.

This is done every few years. If we start compiling the chronology from the beginning of the Dayi Dynasty, it will take more than ten days to complete.

The other gentlemen also lived in the temporary palace, but at the westernmost part of Ning'an Gate.

It's far away from where the concubines live.

After the Hanlin scholars left Haiyan Palace and walked a distance, they saw a eunuch in a lush green eunuch uniform behind them, who called out, "Master Pei, please stay."

Pei Ji was walking with his colleagues, and upon hearing this, the four of them stopped.

This eunuch in the oil green clothes is of the sixth rank, and I guess he is serving the master.

Sure enough, when I got closer, I saw that it was Shen Chuliu's eunuch Yuanxiao.

He probably didn't ask the others to leave, fearing that something bad might happen, so he hurriedly handed the box in his hand to Pei Ji: "Our queen heard that Lord Pei is getting married, and she has nothing good to give, so she gave you this pair of jade pendants. I hope you and your wife will live happily together for a hundred years and grow old together."

"This... such a valuable thing, how dare I accept it?" He was only an eighth-rank junior imperial scholar now. He was indeed flattered.

"The Queen said that if Master Pei refuses, he should tell her not to forget the relationship between relatives. Well, the masters have been busy all morning, so let's go back. I'll leave first."

Although Pei Ji was aloof, he was not stupid. He quickly pulled the silver from his arms and stuffed it into his pocket: "Thank you, eunuch. Please tell me something. I know everything. Thank you for your concern. I hope you and the Sixth Prince will be happy and worry-free."

"Okay, that's fine. Please come in, my lords. I'm in a hurry to go back and serve you." After saying that, Yuanxiao bowed and left.

Most of the young Hanlin scholars did not know whose relative Pei Ji was, they only knew that Pei Jiancheng was a cabinet minister.

So now he was very curious: "Is this eunuch the one who serves Madam Jing Xiuyi? I saw him just now. Oh my god, your family is actually related to Madam Jing Xiuyi? She is the most popular madam now."

Let me explain again, this book is mainly about palace fighting, palace fighting. It's not a sweet love story, but the person is not abused. The writing style is like this. If you want to read sweet love, there is really no such thing. There is a lot of false feelings. Don't be disappointed if you like sweet love stories. It's normal to change the taste after writing too much. Otherwise, I will be tired of writing the same type all the time. If you really don't like it, wait until you have the chance to read my other books in the future? Or read my old books? The blocked chapters of the old books cannot be released, so sometimes there are gaps... and, I love you. I am asking the editor, and I think I will get a wave of recommendations, and then I will burst for a few days.
