Chapter 321 It’s Not Good to Give It to You
Then he called the fourth day of the first lunar month: "This year, all the eyebrow pencils that are tributed from outside, except for the two Empress Dowagers and the Empress, should be given to Jing Zhaoyi."
Shen Chuliu was on the emperor's lap at this time, and she was not in a hurry to get up: "Thank you, Your Majesty, there are not many top-quality eyebrow pencils. Did you give them all to me?"
"Isn't it better to give it to you?" Qi Yixiu pinched her cheek.
"Of course, I won't be polite." Shen Chuliu said as she leaned over and kissed the emperor on the cheek: "Thank you, Your Majesty~"
This sentence is both sweet and sticky.
Qi Yixiu was greatly aroused by her, so he stood up with her in his arms: "My beloved concubine, since you are so grateful to me, why don't we do something practical?"
Qi Yixiu carried her into the inner room. Shen Chuliu hugged his neck and felt a little weird.
What's up with this dog emperor?
To say that he dotes on himself a lot is not necessarily the case. He definitely dotes on himself, but there is nothing special about it.
But this guy always has to see her after a while, and he can't let the time go by when he sees her.
As far as she knew, she was probably the only one doing that during the day.
This kind of special thing is really... Never mind, it’s a good thing.
Shen Chuliu was acting like a spoiled brat today, so she acted like a spoiled brat on the dragon bed.
Qi Yixiu was very happy with this. If she said it was heavy, then it would be lighter, and if she said it was light, then it would be heavier. She was very cooperative.
Shen Chuliu stayed here for a whole day and was rewarded with a lot of things before leaving.
Everyone in the harem saw this and thought that Concubine Jing had not fallen out of favor after all.
I thought Concubine Xin’s previous momentum had overwhelmed her.
But it’s only the fifth day of the new year and Jing Xiuyi has been asked to stay in Taiji Palace for such a long time.
You know, Concubine Xin was definitely favored, but she didn't serve in the Taiji Palace for so long during the day, nor did she go to the Imperial Study.
Before the tenth day, every day was really busy. It was not until the thirteenth day that Shen Chuliu held a banquet in Cuiyunxuan to entertain the female members of the Shen family.
At this time, Shen Changjing was already on his way back to Beijing and would be there soon.
He was not in a hurry to ask for retirement, but he would say it as soon as he officially went to court.
Shen Chuliu still refused to give Shen Baolin the slightest face and did not mention asking her to come.
In Cuiyunxuan, Yao Baolin came over to help for a while.
The Shen family was naturally happy, and the day went very well. Even Liang was smiling, and didn't say a single inappropriate word.
After sending the people away in the afternoon, Shen Chuliu lay down comfortably: "There are still a few days left. I will feel comfortable after the 15th. This year has passed."
"When the master is tired, he can ask Zengchunlai to massage him?" Zizhu asked.
Shen Chuliu nodded: "Call him over, where is the Sixth Prince?"
"The master forgot that the Sixth Prince was taken out to play."
A few days ago, the Sixth Prince could no longer be kept at home, so Shen Chuliu simply waved his hand, told him to wear warm clothes, and carried him out.
Shen Chuliu rubbed his head: "It's over, I really forgot."
Zi Rui laughed and said, "Look at what you have done as a mother. The wet nurses followed suit, and Yu Lou also followed suit."
"Okay, okay, okay. I'm glad to have you around." Shen Chuliu smiled and closed his eyes.
Soon, Zengchun came to give her a massage and took off the hairpins on her head. She soon fell asleep.
Until the little bandit Sixth Prince came back and started chattering.
Shen Chuliu opened her eyes and looked weakly at the Sixth Prince who was running around and shouting: "Yan'er..."
"Mom, there are rabbits in the imperial garden!"
The nurse explained hurriedly: "They probably ran in from outside. They are wild rabbits. We saw two of them."
"Do you like rabbits? Ask the cat and dog room in the Ministry of Internal Affairs to find a nice little white rabbit and send it to you. But you have to take good care of it. Since you have one, you should raise it big. Don't just raise it as food." Shen Chuliu sat up.
The Sixth Prince didn't quite understand, so he just nodded randomly and grabbed his mother's hair out of curiosity.
Shen Chuliu's hair was well-maintained, so the Sixth Prince tried to grab it but failed. He became even more curious and tried to grab it again.
Shen Chuliu let him grab her and just said, "Don't pull, or mother will feel pain."
The Sixth Prince didn't grab it, but just kept touching it, thinking it was very fun.
Shen Chuliu was so touched that she lowered her head and patted her son: "It's not in vain that I love you."
It's a pity that the two-year-old kid is a male puppy. His tenderness only lasts for a moment, and he will continue to act like a villain in the next second.
Shen Chuliu fell back on the couch and covered his head, looking like he didn't care.
Everyone was laughing, and the Sixth Prince laughed along.
Shen Chuliu was actually laughing as he listened. It was nice for children to laugh and make some noise.
On the night of the fifteenth, Shen Chuliu continued to dress up, today wearing a light purple skirt embroidered with magnolia flowers, and top-quality white jade jewelry matched with coral.
She seldom used white jade, but when she did, it looked very beautiful.
This magnolia dress was also very eye-catching, and Qi Yixiu noticed it at first sight.
He laughed and thought, this Shen!
She didn't try to flatter him, but she had the ability to make him see it! She made him feel that it was his duty to reward her with good things, and she always made those things valuable.
The white jade and coral were given to her on the fifth day of the first lunar month. Look how quickly she picked out a set of clothes to match! After the Lantern Festival, the Chinese New Year is over, and everyone is looking forward to it being over quickly. They are also waiting to see how the lanterns will be rewarded this year.
Today, except for the two little princes eight and nine, all the other children came.
The two Empress Dowagers were also smiling and seemed to be in a good mood.
This banquet was as grand as the state banquet on the first day of the new year, and it also indicated that the new year was over.
When the banquet is over, it is time to reward the lanterns.
The harem was looking forward to it, and so was the previous dynasty.
The emperor would also reward lamps to people he cared about, but they were actually useless and were just symbolic.
The Shen family has this every year, and this year is no exception.
The newcomers are the Qian family, the young Lord, and Princess Junyi's residence.
In the harem, there are two empress dowagers and the queen.
This year, Concubine Feng Shufei and Concubine Kang Defei are still absent.
Further down, Concubine Xin had two, Concubine Shun had two, Concubine Jing had two, Concubine Ning had one, Concubine Li had one, Concubine Zhen had one, and Concubine Wen had one.
After the nine concubines, Concubine Su had one lamp, Concubine Yu had one lamp, and then there was only Xue Xiaoyi who had one lamp. The emperor's favor was obvious.
At least one thing is certain: whoever has a light can have a pet.
The reason why Concubine Shun was able to have a lamp was probably because she had just been promoted and was given face.
Among the nine concubines, there were more people this year, so each of them only had one lamp, but Jing Zhaoyi was given two lamps, which shows the favor she received.
The same applies to all princes and princesses, except that the second princess born to the queen has four lamps, while everyone else has two.
Everyone had no objection. Although Concubine Feng was dissatisfied, she did not dare to say anything.
But after all, she is a princess, so Concubine Feng can be open-minded.
The one who was most disappointed was Jiang Zilan. She thought there would be a lamp as well, but the emperor didn't give it to her after all.
After Shen Chuliu's lamp was returned, the Sixth Prince held it and compared it for a long time and insisted on exchanging it with her.
She teased him and then let him go.
Unfortunately, although the lamp was exquisite, the Sixth Prince only liked it for a short while, and he didn't want it anymore the next day.
Shen Chuliu asked someone to take it away.
