Chapter 325 You are the only one with a big mouth
But in fact, the emperor didn’t send anything for Wen Chongrong’s birthday before.
"It's my fault. Do you still like those things, my beloved?" Qi Yixiu smiled and patted her hands.
"I don't know. I missed the emperor so much that I had no time to look at those things. I came to Taiji Palace first. Did I disturb the emperor?" Shen Chuliu grabbed Qi Yixiu's hand with her backhand.
"How could that be? My beloved concubine has always been the most sensible. How could you have disturbed me?" Qi Yixiu hugged her and said, "It's me who asked my beloved concubine to worry about me. I've been busy lately."
"Your Majesty, you are such a fool. I am just being a spoiled child. How can I really blame you? I just miss you." Shen Chuliu took the opportunity to hug his neck: "Your Majesty has many beauties. Even if he thinks of me, he has to line up. But I think of your Majesty all of a sudden."
"You are such a sweet talker. The day after tomorrow is the day when the Queen Mother will take you to Cheng'an Temple, so you don't have to bring the Sixth Prince with you." Qi Yixiu also said the same thing to the Queen. There is no need to bring the children with you.
The queen understood and naturally said it.
But he said it again, which also meant that he valued it.
Shen Chuliu nodded: "Yes, the Sixth Prince is still young, and he doesn't understand if we ask him to worship Buddha. Otherwise, the Buddha will be angry. Let's talk about it in a few years."
She spoke very naturally, and Qi Yixiu liked the way she reacted quickly and spoke naturally.
"Do you like the necklace I asked someone to send to you a few days ago?" Qi Yixiu was busy before, so he didn't even look at the necklaces that were made. He just asked someone to send six of them to him.
"They are beautiful. I have worn several of them. Yesterday, Li Zhaoyuan even accused me of being extravagant. I felt really guilty about it. Now we are at war, so I didn't wear them today. I'll talk about it after the war is over."
"It's no big deal. Just wear it if you like. I can afford to provide a few pieces of jewelry for the harem." Qi Yixiu laughed.
"Speaking of this, I have an idea." Shen Chuliu's eyes rolled, "But Your Majesty, please don't ask. I won't tell you. I'll go talk to the Empress about this later."
Qi Yixiu shook his head: "Okay, I won't ask about your affairs. But my beloved concubine is very respectful to the queen?"
"Your Majesty, what you said is true! The Empress is the mother of the country and has always been fair, so why shouldn't we respect her? If anyone disrespects the Empress, they should be beaten."
Qi Yixiu smiled and said deliberately: "After all, the queen is from the court and has no prince."
"Chao Kingdom and Dayi have reconciled. The Queen was a princess before she got married, and now she is the eldest princess of Chao Kingdom. As for the fact that she has no prince, the Queen is still young. Besides, not all legitimate wives in the folk have sons. As long as she respects her parents-in-law, is kind to concubines and illegitimate children, and is good to her husband, it will be great. The Emperor is too bad. I can hide this from the Queen for you." Shen Chuliu smiled and poked the back of Qi Yixiu's hand.
Qi Yixiu grabbed her rebellious hand and said, "You are the only one with a mouth."
"Hmph! I'll go discuss this with the Empress right away! Your Majesty, please have lunch by yourself." As she said this, she was about to get up.
Qi Yixiu grabbed him and said, "Where are you going? Just stay with me for dinner."
Only then did he behave himself and even hummed.
After lunch, I naturally didn’t go back, but stayed at Taiji Palace that night.
In fact, there were concubines who followed Shen Chuliu's example and took the initiative to go to Taiji Palace to see the emperor.
But at best they could only stay for a while, as most of them were sent back.
Of course, being sent back by the emperor was not considered shameful, but everyone was very dissatisfied and unconvinced because of it.
As for Shen Chuliu, he didn't go there often. Every time he went, he would always look at the time, which must be because the emperor was not too busy.
So when they greeted each other this morning, there was another round of verbal battle.
Concubine Xin also talked about Shen Chuliu's initiative to go to Taiji Palace, saying that she disturbed the emperor.
Shen Chuliu pretended not to know.
She can't always have the upper hand. She still has to speak when it's time to speak. But if someone goes too far, she will not refrain from fighting back.
After paying his respects, Shen Chuliu stayed and told him what he had been thinking about yesterday.
"I have indeed acquired a lot of things over the years. Forget about the new ones. The old clothes I have worn are also good. It is not practical to give them away directly to the people. It is better to send them outside. People will like them. Then I can exchange some silver for rice and flour to give to the refugees. I just mentioned it. I have no idea how to do it."
Whenever there is a war, there will be refugees. Now, people from Lujun City have already come to the imperial city.
The queen smiled and said, "You are right. Although this is not a big deal now, it is the first time such a thing has happened since the emperor ascended the throne. The rumors some time ago were not good either. I was just thinking about these. I was afraid that you would not be willing. Since you said so, I will naturally arrange it." The queen said with a smile.
In fact, doing this at this point in time is a good thing, and it is also to make the emperor's reputation sound good.
If the emperor is happy, the harem will naturally be happy.
The Queen could think of this, but after all, she was not born in the Dayi Dynasty, and she was afraid that if she did so, people in the harem would gossip about her.
She is the queen, so it is natural for her to take out some unused things, but she is afraid that other people are unwilling to spend money.
Although Shen Chuliu did not reach the position of concubine, no matter her status in the emperor's heart or her status as the daughter of the Shen family, as long as she agreed, the queen would naturally be confident.
To be honest, many concubines are not as wealthy as Jing Zhaoyi.
Shen Chuliu returned to Cuiyunxuan and said in a letter, "I just realized what the emperor said yesterday."
"Huh? What?" Shen Chuliu was surprised.
"That is to say, the Queen is a Chinese who has no son. It turns out that the Emperor did it on purpose." Chi Su whispered: "Fortunately, you reacted quickly."
Shen Chuliu smiled, "It's not about how fast or slow the reaction is. You'll know after seeing her more often. No matter what, the emperor is very satisfied with the queen. It's not necessarily a bad thing for the queen to be childless. In the past, Empress Dowager Li also thought so, but she doesn't know it now. As long as the queen keeps her current state, the emperor will never have other thoughts. As for me, I was born in a military family. Now my grandfather has troops, and my uncle is leading troops south again."
"If the Shen family has bad intentions..."
That's a north-south encirclement. To be honest, Qi Yixiu is indeed a powerful person. He would never be without a sense of defense, but he dared! Chi Su choked: "Master... It's hard for you."
"What's so difficult about it? I'm a concubine, and my duty is to serve the emperor. The Shen family are subjects, and their duty is to be loyal to the emperor. It's just a matter of letting nature take its course." Anyway, Marquis Jing'an was about to retire.
Chi Su nodded: "Yes, I will have to think more about this in the future."
Shen Chuliu nodded: "You are all very good."
The queen was also very decisive in her actions. She quickly set the rules and went to invite the emperor.
That night the emperor went to Fengzao Palace and the queen told him what had happened.
Qi Yixiu smiled and said, "Why, is this Concubine Jing coming to present treasures to the Queen?"
