Chapter 561 Good Luck
The emperor finally asked the Ministry of Rites to come up with a name for the eldest princess, and named her Princess Shuhua.
The princesses' maiden names are one thing. Generally speaking, they can be given a name when they get married. At the latest, the emperor will always give them a title when they get married.
A princess with a title would receive more salary. According to the previous dynasty, a princess with a title would even start to enjoy the food from her fiefdom.
However, there is no such rule in the Dayi Dynasty, and nowadays, few princes have fiefs, and there are few like the Deer King.
Even in the time of the Deer King, all the taxes in Lu City were not under his control.
As for the princess, the only benefit she had was the title.
This is actually similar to the principle of a prince being crowned king.
The emperor's daughters are all princesses, but there is a difference between having a title and not having one.
Since the eldest princess was given the title, the second princess was a legitimate daughter, so the emperor would not be stingy and personally bestowed the title of Princess Zhaohua on the second princess.
These two, Shuhua and Zhaohua, are enough to prove the nobility of the second princess.
The next one was the third princess who died young, and was also posthumously conferred the title of Princess Minghua.
The little princesses below won’t have the chance to be crowned for the time being.
But it's only a matter of time.
There was also a ceremony for the princesses to be conferred titles. The Queen was in charge, and the eldest and second princesses held it together.
As the queen's only child, the second princess is naturally extremely noble.
The gifts given by everyone were not small. Shen Chuliu directly gave two pairs of bracelets made from a piece of jade to the eldest princess and the second princess.
This is extremely fine mutton-fat jade. In the palace, only she and the queen could take it out without blinking an eye.
I remember that Concubine Li had a bracelet like this, and she treasured it very much.
It’s not that Concubine Li is poor, but jade like this is rare even nowadays.
This thing is naturally important enough to be given away.
Moreover, she also gave the second princess a box of pearls, all of which were of the finest quality, and told the second princess to use them as she pleased.
In Fengzao Palace, the second princess looked around and saw gifts sent from outside the palace.
I first saw the pearls sent by Yu Fu Palace, and then the bracelet.
"Look, mother, Concubine Jing is really generous. Such a good thing."
"Where are your rules?" the queen glared at her.
"Okay, okay, it's Mother Concubine Jing." The Second Princess stuck out her tongue: "It's not in person, I'm not disrespecting others."
"I'm afraid you'll let it slip if you speak too hastily. You are your father's legitimate daughter, but the future crown prince is destined to have a different mother than you. You have reason to be proud, but your mother will always be ahead of you. She can't protect you forever. So, be proud, but also humble. No matter what you think in your heart, you must abide by the rules and regulations for the sake of face."
Queen Road.
"Yes, I remember mother, but please don't say that. I want you to stay with me all my life." The second princess acted coquettishly.
"Okay, go and look at your gifts." The queen sighed.
How can there be a mother who can stay with you for a lifetime?
"This jade is so nice. Was it given to Mother Jing by our father? Tsk, she really gets a lot of rewards every year." The second princess tried one on and took a look.
"That's her ability. She gave you such a good thing. Don't just look at her good points. You should also know that she values you and respects me, your mother." said the queen.
"Yes, yes, I know that her son will have the advantage in the future competition for the crown prince. I remember it all. Don't worry, mother. I know my limits when dealing with my brothers and my father's concubines. I'm a princess and my interests have nothing to do with them. I know all that." The second princess said with a smile.
"Besides, Mother Jing is an interesting person. She is calm and indifferent when others are trying to win her over. She is an interesting person anyway."
"Mother is extremely glad that you are a princess." The Queen smiled gently, shook her head and went out.
If this was a prince, could her life still be so peaceful?
The mother and daughter might have already become a pile of bones.
From this point of view, God is still kind to us.
In Yufu Palace, Shen Chuliu was embroidering with Concubine Yao and they were also free.
Yuanxiao came back from outside and said, "Master, Lady Yao, I have inquired and heard that this Mid-Autumn Festival, General Feng's family will indeed come to our Duke's Mansion, including the Duke, the eldest master, and others. It is said that the third young master will also be returning to the capital soon."
"Oh? Third brother is back too? He hasn't been back for some years." Shen Chuliu said.
"Yes, I'm afraid that after coming back this time, I may not go to Northern Xinjiang again." Yuanxiao said.
"Yes." Shen Chuliu nodded: "Now he is the pillar of the third room."
After Yuanxiao left, Lady Yao said, "It would be great if General Shen could stay in the capital, but in the capital... you would lose the advantage of leading troops."
"Even if he was in the Northern Frontier, let alone my grandfather, it would take him decades to reach the same position as his father. It would be the same whether he wanted to keep the military power in his hands or not. It's not bad to be able to come back and be an official now. The Shen family will always have to pick up the pen." Shen Chuliu said.
She also knew that her family's plan was to transfer Shen Qingling back to the vicinity of the imperial city first, but now he was going to come back directly? Shen Chuliu was not optimistic about Shen Qinghe and Shen Qingyang at all, so she had high expectations for this cousin.
Lady Yao nodded, thinking that no matter how powerful the Shen family was, they still had a solid foundation.
"Master." Yinhu called.
"Come in and talk."
"My lord, Concubine Lin has had a miscarriage, and the Imperial Hospital and the Emperor have been alerted. Someone has also gone to tell the Empress." Yinhu said.
Shen Chuliu raised her eyebrows: "Why are you upset?"
She said that these two pregnancies were too safe, and now something unexpected has happened.
"I don't know yet, maybe it's because of a fall." Yinhu said.
"Well, you just wait and see. If someone goes, I'll go. If not, forget it." Shen Chuliu waved his hand.
Yinhu responded and went out.
Lady Yao sighed, "As soon as she gives birth to her baby, she will be promoted to a higher position. Sure enough, some people can't sit still. In comparison, Xu Baolin is much more stable."
"Xu Baolin is another danger." Shen Chuliu also shook her head: "After Xu Baolin's child is born, she will be promoted a long time ago. I'm afraid someone is watching her."
After hearing this, Lady Yao suddenly understood. That's right, there are people in high positions who don't have children.
“But look at the Tenth Prince. He’s still being kept like this? He hasn’t even been given a mother.” Concubine Yao was puzzled.
"After all, the Tenth Prince's grandfather had the merit of saving the emperor. Qian Shi was not good enough, but her family still had some affection for him. When the Tenth Prince grows up, it is possible that Qian Shi could be promoted. As for Xu Baolin, unless he is favored in the future, when will he be able to climb up?"
The key point is that Xu Baolin herself was not favored, and she was lucky to get pregnant.
Lady Yao nodded, it’s true.
"I don't know how Concubine Lin is doing. She has been dead for six months, so she shouldn't be dead."
Shen Chuliu didn't say anything. Who knows? It depends on luck.
If you're lucky, then nothing will happen.
Go to sleep.
