Chapter 533 Death from Illness
"Then you'd better kneel down. If I ask you to stand up, it will be troublesome in the future. You should be more sensible in the future. Don't let others catch you." Shen Chuliu looked at her dog-like eyes and said a few more words kindly.
"Yes, thank you, Queen Jingfei. I'm fine. It's very cold. Your Majesty, please go back early." Yang Yunu's mood improved.
Shen Chuliu smiled and left.
Yang Yu-nu murmured again, "The queen is so beautiful."
Yang Yu's maid rolled her eyes: "You are already like this!"
"You can see it all. The Queen is so beautiful and has such a strong aura. Did you see how the Queen drew her eyebrows? I want to learn from her later." Yang Yunu excitedly.
The maid Yang Tao sighed, "My lady, the concubines in the palace are not allowed to imitate the dress of the higher-ranking concubines. For example, if you wear the same clothes, you may be punished."
Of course not necessarily, but not only is his own concubine not favored at all, she is not smart either, and even if she doesn't cause trouble, she will be punished to kneel from time to time.
If I offend Concubine Jing, can I still survive?
"Ah? Then I won't learn it, but I just think it looks good. Didn't you see that Concubine Mei also imitated the Empress before?" Yang Yunu said softly.
Yang Tao endured it again and again, and thought it was better to tell her, lest her mistress, who was a royal concubine, would harm herself without knowing the good and the bad.
"It's different. Concubine Mei has a good background, is favored by her husband, and always has someone to rely on." Can you compare? Yang Yunv was a little upset when she heard this, but she still said, "You're right. Then I'd better be careful."
Yang Tao breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that she had hit her, and said, "Although Concubine Jing is powerful, she is kind to you, so there is no need to be afraid. Let's just not cause trouble."
"That's right, Concubine Jing is a reasonable person. I didn't do anything, right?" Yang Yunu became happy again.
Yang Tao thought, forget it, being naturally optimistic is a good thing...
Shen Chuliu returned to Yufu Palace, and Lady Yao smiled and said, "This Yang Yunu is really simple. She was supposed to sleep with the emperor before, but was intercepted by Concubine Lin and Concubine Zhuang. Gradually, the emperor didn't remember her much."
"She has never slept with the emperor?" Shen Chuliu was shocked.
"Of course not, there are just not enough of them. Both Yang Yunv and Xu Yunv have few of them, but she is the best." Lady Yao said.
"That's normal. Every time someone comes in, there are always people who are not favored." Shen Chuliu said.
"Your Majesty is right. Concubine Yi was fine before, but the Emperor hasn't visited her since she had a miscarriage."
"Compared with Yan Xiurong and Mei Jieyu, she is still a little dull." Good looks are useless.
There are too many good-looking people in the harem. If you don’t have any special features, the emperor may not remember you.
Anyway, you have been given the position you deserve, and the rest depends on fate.
The weather was getting colder, and news came from the northern border that Shen Chuliu's third uncle Shen Yi had passed away.
"Where did this news come from?" Shen Chuliu asked.
Yuan Xiao hurriedly said, "My Lord, this is news from Taiji Palace. I believe there will be serious news soon."
Shen Chuliu frowned: "You didn't say why?"
Yuanxiao shook his head and said he didn’t know yet.
But it didn't take long. In the afternoon, Laba came from Taiji Palace to deliver a message.
"General Shen died of angina pectoris. He was in the middle of a drill when he suddenly developed a heart attack and was too late to rescue him. Your Majesty, please accept my condolences."
Shen Chuliu nodded: "Thank you for your help."
Seeing that she was still calm, Laba left.
Shen Chuliu sat there for a while and said, "Call Shen Gengyi over."
Not long after, Shen Biyu was called to Yufu Palace. She didn't have time to see what the place looked like. Although she knew nothing, she was still frightened by being called here suddenly.
"Hello, Queen Concubine Jing."
"Get up and sit down." Shen Chuliu waved his hand.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Is there something wrong?" Shen Biyu whispered.
"Calm down and listen to me. Your father has passed away." Shen Chuliu said, and then he felt that his words were dry: "Now we have set off from the northern border. I think it will take another seven or eight days to return to Beijing."
Shen Biyu didn't react for a moment: "Madam, you are joking..."
"Calm down. I'll go to Taiji Palace and talk to the emperor and ask him to ask you to return home." Shen Chuliu said.
"Empress... is it true? How could... why would my father..." Shen Biyu slowly stood up.
"It's angina pectoris, a sudden acute illness." Shen Chuliu said.
Shen Biyu's body shook: "This is impossible..."
"You go back first and calm down." Shen Chuliu waved his hand.
Baiguo helped her walk out.
It’s no wonder that Shen Chuliu is indifferent. What she is thinking about now is more about the future of the Shen family.
"Let's go to Taiji Palace." Shen Chuliu didn't even change his clothes and just walked away wearing a cloak.
In Taiji Palace, Qi Yixiu called her in.
"emperor."
"My beloved concubine, please accept my condolences. I am also heartbroken that General Shen is gone." Qi Yixiu supported her.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. I am just worried about my grandparents who are old..." Shen Chuliu sighed, "I want to go back and see them."
"Okay, but not today. It's getting dark. Let's go back tomorrow." Qi Yixiu said.
"Yes, I'll plead for Shen Gengyi. Her father is gone, so at least let her go back."
"Of course. I will arrange it when the time comes." Qi Yixiu patted her hands.
The Shen family had just received the news and was in chaos.
Qu had been in poor health in recent years, and when she heard this, she fainted on the spot.
He called the imperial physician into the mansion that night.
Shen Changjing was fine, after all, a man who had spent his whole life in military service was not that fragile. But seeing so many people die one after another was also extremely painful.
In the third room, things were even more chaotic.
Liang also fainted instantly. Unfortunately, her biological children were not around, and after she was finally woken up, she seemed to have aged twenty years in an instant.
The entire Shen family was shrouded in a depressed and sad atmosphere.
As if to suit the occasion, it started raining again at night, and it was heavy rain.
That night, the emperor did not ask Shen Chuliu to go back, so Shen Chuliu did not sleep well.
In the second half of the night, she actually dreamed of her father whom she had never met.
Of course, I knew it was my father in the dream, but I couldn’t see his face clearly.
But her father held her hand and told her that the road in the palace was difficult to travel, and she should take care of herself. Nothing else mattered, taking care of herself was the most important thing.
Shen Chuliu didn't wake up in surprise, she just woke up naturally, looking at the dark tent and wondering, was it because her father was worried about her? Or was she just thinking this selfishly? After a long while, the emperor suddenly asked, "Why are you awake?"
"Huh? I was dreaming. I dreamed of my father. How come the emperor woke up?" Shen Chuliu turned sideways.
Qi Yixiu hugged her and said, "I was dreaming too. It's still early. Go to sleep."
Qi Yixiu closed his eyes. He dreamed of the late emperor.
I don’t know why the late emperor was angry. It was clearly not his fault, but he still had to take the responsibility with a smile.
But the moment he woke up, he felt relieved. The person who could make him take responsibility for mistakes that were not his own was no longer there.
