Chapter 306 Just a

It rained heavily all day and then turned to light rain at night.

Shen Chuliu embraced the Sixth Prince, who was rarely making trouble, and said, "You have an eighth brother now."

"Your eighth brother is not an ordinary person. Let's wait and see in the future." Shen Chuliu smiled as she spoke: "I wonder if this lucky child is the creation of Lady Wen."

"Master, what you said is true." Zi Rui fed the Sixth Prince a peeled melon seed kernel and said, "No matter how powerful Lady Wen is, the Eighth Prince is still behind the Sixth Prince."

There was no one else in the palace, so Shen Chuliu said, "You have to know that the prince's age is both an advantage and a disadvantage."

The emperors of the old Qi family were the ones who had short lives.

"Yes, Master, I understand..." Zi Rui said softly, "I am also afraid, but I still believe in you. You will definitely arrange everything for the Sixth Prince. The Sixth Prince is the luckiest to have you as his mother."

Shen Chuliu sighed: "You really have confidence in me. However, after giving birth to a child, you must always be responsible."

Especially for the child born in this treacherous harem, if you don’t take good care of him, he may not be able to grow up well.

The Sixth Prince ran out of patience and decided to go downstairs to play.

He can call mother now, but when he calls father, he still calls him emperor protector, and when he calls mother, he calls her mother ash.

Calling the wet nurse is still too cold.

Now he is calling Lailiang to go riding a horse.

Shen Chuliu watched the wet nurses take him out and take care of him while they went to play in the main room.

Because I love to play, I made a small wooden horse and put it in the house. Otherwise, I would go out to play at night.

"Master, I feel that although Lady Wen is lucky, it is not necessarily a good thing." Zi Rui thought for a while: "I don't know how to say it, but the emperor has not paid much attention to her in recent years. Even if it is like this now, in the future... how the princes will be, it is also closely related to my mother. The palace is not that simple now."

"It's hard to tell whether it's simple or not. How far have we come? Let's wait and see. It looks like Concubine Zhen's child is getting older." Shen Chuliu stood up: "If it's also a prince, with the support of Empress Dowager Li, the Li family..."

"Yes, thank you for your hard work, master." Zi Rui sighed.

"Okay, let's stop talking. It's getting late. Go prepare some water." Shen Chuliu waved his hand.

Zi Rui agreed and went to the door to give instructions.

For several days in a row, Qi Yixiu did not enter the harem as he was busy with court affairs, although the drought around the imperial city was alleviated by the rain.

However, there are still some places in the distance that were affected by the disaster, but it is not too serious.

The Dayi Dynasty has a lot of grain reserves, so there is no need to worry too much.

But in times like this, we need to be more cautious.

If a war breaks out, food will be in short supply.

When Qi Yixiu had finally dealt with the affairs of the court, news came into the harem that the Deer King had brought a stunning beauty into the imperial city.

Because the Deer King had taken the lead in demanding the punishment of the Shen family, the Emperor ordered him to go to the capital.

Finally he arrived. A journey that should have taken ten days took him a month.

Now that he has come to the capital, he has brought with him a stunning beauty. Even before he even entered the imperial city, the news has already spread like wildfire.

For a time, the people even suspected that the emperor was very lustful.

Qi Yixiu was so angry that he went to see Empress Dowager Li immediately.

Before noon, Queen Mother Li scolded the Deer King's biological mother who had passed away many years ago.

On June 29th, the Deer King finally entered the palace.

After all, he was already a prince with a fiefdom, so a banquet had to be held to entertain him.

And all the concubines saw this stunning beauty in the Taiji Hall.

The woman was wearing a light purple dress, with small silver accessories hanging from silver threads all over her body. She had a snow-white scarf on her face and her hair was in a beautiful bun. Just looking at her eyebrows and eyes, she was indeed extremely beautiful.

"Your Majesty, look, this is the beauty I found specially. Her name is Ruiji. She is sixteen years old this year, which is the best age for her. Her family is in business, and they are clean. Ruiji, why don't you come forward and pay your respects?" said the Deer King.

Qi Yixiu's face did not look good. Based on Shen Chuliu's understanding of him, this gentleman was probably about to have a fit.

As expected, Qi Yixiu snorted, "No need for that. Come, send this Ruiji to the laundry department to serve. Since she is not worthy of being seen by others, she does not need to be seen by others."

When these words were spoken, the Deer King was stunned, and Rui Ji was also shocked.

"Your Majesty..." She called softly.

"Aren't you going yet?" Qi Yixiu looked at the Deer King coldly.

Chusi hurriedly asked someone to drag Ruiji out.

If the Deer King was a truly capable man, he wouldn't be living such a miserable life.

There was no money in the fiefdom, and there was not even a decent house in the imperial city.

It's just that he has been kind to Qi Yixiu in the past few years since he ascended the throne.

He was truly helpless, and the princess he married was not from a prominent family, but was just the daughter of a fallen noble.

There is no one to rely on, and now even the Yue family is left.

His biological mother herself did not hold a high position, and the reason she was able to live a comfortable life these years was almost entirely because the late emperor left behind the emperor and his two sons.

Therefore, when Qi Yixiu was nice to him, he would tremble, but once he wanted to take back his kindness, he could only shrink back.

At this moment, I felt a little scared: "Since the emperor doesn't like her, she is unlucky."

"My royal brother's political achievements in Lujun City are mediocre, but he is very interested in collecting beauties. But I dare not let down my ancestors." Qi Yixiu said indifferently.

The Deer King felt even more embarrassed.

Empress Dowager Li said, "This year, the whole country has suffered from disasters. The emperor stays up late every night and goes to court early in the morning, hoping to make life better for the people. Third brother, you shouldn't ignore this."

The Deer King couldn't sit still anymore. "Yes, it's all my fault. I just thought that the emperor was busy with all kinds of affairs and it was really hard. That's why I wanted to send someone I like to make the emperor happy. I didn't think it through."

Queen Mother Feng smiled and said, "The Deer King has good intentions, but he has to choose the right time."

"Yes, yes, what you mothers said is right. It is my fault." The Deer King broke out in a cold sweat.

Seeing that they had almost finished talking, Qi Yixiu waved his hand and said, "Okay, today is a family dinner, so we won't talk about state affairs. Let's talk about it in the emperor's morning court tomorrow."

As for what to say...

If a prince presented a beautiful woman to the emperor, no matter whether the emperor accepted it or not, it would not be necessary to discuss it at the morning court.

It's not a batch, it's just one.

So, what we need to talk about is why he took the lead in asking the emperor to punish Marquis Jing'an.

The Deer King knew it well, and in his heart he cursed those people who secretly instigated him, but he couldn't say it out loud.

It was a family dinner, but the food was tasteless.

After the meeting, Shen Chuliu just returned and saw an unfamiliar eunuch.

A box of silver notes and a set of fine jade head ornaments were sent to her.

Good night
