Chapter 433 Knowing What's
Going On After the emperor and Zhen Chongyi and the others left, Shen Chuliu glanced at the timid Ninth Prince, but didn't say anything.
"Let's go, let's go back."
The Sixth Prince looked at the Eighth Prince: "Eighth brother? Let's go?"
The eighth prince walked over slowly.
He never greeted Shen Chuliu from beginning to end, mainly because he was too slow to react.
"You all know what to say when I report the news to your master later, right?" Shen Chuliu glanced at the eighth prince's wet nurse.
The man hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, the Sixth Prince helped the Eighth Prince, and we servants know it."
Shen Chuliu rolled her eyes: "Did I ask you to say this? Just say what you want to say, and stop talking nonsense. You are so patient, but I can't. The Eighth Prince is ignorant, and she doesn't care now. Isn't she afraid of regretting it in the future?"
Having said that, he took the Sixth Prince away.
After returning to the Sixth Prince's residence, the Sixth Prince looked up and said, "Mother, isn't Eighth Brother's mother treating him badly?"
"Huh? Why do you say that?" Shen Chuliu laughed.
"I don't know, son, it's just a feeling. Well... before, Eighth Brother didn't have chestnuts." The Sixth Prince scratched his head.
"Chestnut?" Shen Chuliu looked at the jade clock.
"My lord, these are some mountain products and nuts that were sent from the north. They were distributed to Ruiqing Palace earlier. Every prince has one. I guess the eighth prince got some less, right?" Yu Lou said.
Shen Chuliu nodded, understanding what was going on.
There are fewer things like this in the south, so there aren't many of them to be distributed.
As the Sixth Prince, he is also favored, and no one dares to mess with his mother. Not only can he not have a shortage of these things, which are in limited quantities, he even has more.
But the prince...
It was still okay before, but now it’s like this, I’m afraid there aren’t many to begin with.
From what I saw today, his servants are useless and there's no telling where the things have gone.
"Mother, can I give him something to eat?" asked the Sixth Prince.
"Everything here is yours. You can give it to anyone you want. But remember this: a little kindness is a recipe for resentment."
"Ah? What does that mean?" The Sixth Prince was puzzled.
Shen Chuliu told him the little story.
"When you give something, you should make people understand that it is you who gives it, not that you owe them. Your eighth brother is different from others, but for you, the principle is the same. Of course, if you can give him a lifetime, it doesn't matter."
"Oh, then I'll give him less. Not often." The Sixth Prince nodded: "Give the extra to mother."
"You little brat, you have really learned to coax me, your mother. Don't worry, I only love you as your little brat. Go and comb your hair. Think about it more when you encounter problems in the future. You did a good job of standing up for your brother today. Come, give me a kiss."
The Sixth Prince ran away laughing. He was seven years old, and kissing and such was sometimes okay, but sometimes very awkward.
Shen Chuliu also smiled: "Okay, play by yourself and have a good meal. Mother has gone to your father's place."
The Sixth Prince nodded while hiding behind the door.
Shen Chuliu walked away with a smile.
After leaving Ruiqing Palace, Chi Su asked, "The snacks that the Eighth Prince had, I'm afraid they were eaten by his wet nurses?"
"Maybe. We can't do anything about it. He has a mother." Shen Chuliu sneered.
In Taiji Palace, Qi Yixiu saw her coming and smiled, "Is Yan'er okay?"
"He's fine. He probably cried because he saw the Ninth Prince crying, and he felt wronged. He didn't even know why he was crying after he finished crying." Shen Chuliu smiled and bowed: "Long live the emperor."
"It's a good thing that he helped Old Eight today." Qi Yixiu smiled and pulled Shen Chuliu up: "My beloved concubine taught you well."
"Children's affairs are nothing. I am now concerned about what the emperor will give me to eat in the evening."
Qi Yixiu laughed: "What do you want to eat?"
I don’t know if it was because of the child’s nagging or what, but Shen Chuliu mentioned chestnut chicken.
The emperor naturally had no objection and asked someone to arrange it.
After dinner, Shen Chuliu made tea while the emperor looked at the documents for a while.
Recently, after the turmoil in the northern border was pacified, the soldiers have begun to retreat one after another.
However, Shen Changjing and others will have to wait two months to return to Beijing.
This time, the war did not break out, but the generals who went there were still rewarded.
Shen Changjing had been a marquis for three generations, so it was naturally difficult for him to be promoted any further, so he was rewarded with a lot of things.
Shen Chuliu saw some documents by the way, and did not pretend not to see them.
Just drink tea and relieve boredom.
After Qi Yixiu finished his work, she asked someone to come in and serve the emperor.
When I returned to the bedroom, it was already time to go to bed.
Shen Chuliu changed into a light red inner garment and sat on the dragon couch.
Qi Yixiu came over and smiled: "My dear, the color of the clothes here is good, and your skin looks even better."
"Do I need to show off? I have an easy life. The emperor gives me good things. I eat a lot of food to keep myself healthy every year. I also use ointments and powders to apply externally, which naturally makes my skin good."
"Besides, the emperor is good to me, and I feel at ease. The children are also well-behaved, so there is nothing to worry about." Shen Chuliu said with a smile.
The emperor sat down before her, took one of her hands, held it in his palm, and held it up to the light.
Her hand was indeed delicate and slender, with nails painted with nail polish, neither long nor short.
Qi Yixiu still remembered that when she first entered the palace and was favored, she also had a pair of soft and white hands.
Such a beautiful face.
Looking closely, there really isn't much change, except that she's more mature and appears more delicate and beautiful.
Looking at her, Qi Yixiu smiled and hugged her: "My beloved concubine is blessed by nature."
"You just know how to coax me. Since the emperor coaxes me like this, I also want good things." Shen Chuliu smiled and scratched the emperor's back a few times.
Qi Yixiu smiled, took off his shoes and got on the bed.
Now that I am not a young boy anymore, it is not the time for me to drag people to bed at every turn.
Therefore, Qi Yixiu just hugged Shen Chuliu and talked while leaning against the pillow.
There was some talking and laughing, so the atmosphere wasn't dull.
After a while, things gradually became quiet inside.
He did not order water or ask for anyone to serve him.
Outside, Chunfen and the others looked at each other cautiously, then went in, blew out the candles and put up the tent.
It's time for the masters to rest.
After they went outside, the little palace maid Hanlu whispered, "Didn't you order water?"
"He will call in the morning. The emperor will not attend court tomorrow." Lichun said.
"But it doesn't matter if you don't yell."
"Why? Aren't all the concubines..." Hanlu whispered, "Aren't they all looking forward to rain and dew?"
Lichun smiled, shook his head and walked away.
Chunfen explained to her: "You will know after seeing it more. For a woman like Concubine Jing, what is there to ask for rain and dew?"
The emperor is willing to keep people even if they don't do that job, that's what he values.
Shen Chuliu didn't know all this, she slept well.
When they woke up the next morning, what happened was exactly what Lichun and the others had expected. The emperor... still didn't let her go.
The beauty was so exhausted that she was almost late for the greeting. The emperor rolled his eyes at her and happily let her go.
