Chapter 631
"The current emperor is also partial, not to mention that the one he is partial to is a good child."
"Master..." Nanny Hua didn't know what to say.
"Don't say anymore. I won't be involved in these matters in the future. It's up to you. The emperor doesn't need my protection anymore." Empress Dowager Li said this with some disappointment, but unfortunately this was the fact.
Nanny Hua had nothing to say and could only respond with a "yes".
After Shen Chuliu had been recuperating for seven days, the imperial physician examined her again and confirmed that she was much better and could eat a little more.
But it can only be soft things. And still can't move around, try to rest as much as possible.
During these seven days, she had lost some weight by eating only one bite of cat food, but her complexion had improved a lot.
Gradually I became more energetic.
After being hungry for a long time, she got used to it. Now she couldn't eat more than a bowl of porridge.
However, the Sixth Prince has been eating and sleeping well these days. After all, he is just a child and recovered quickly.
After breakfast, since the Sixth Prince was not going to study today, the mother and daughter went to sit in the small garden.
In fact, Shen Chuliu knew that the Sixth Prince was there to accompany her, and he didn't like flowers or plants.
I didn't want to disappoint the children, so I went.
Shen Chuliu couldn't sit for long, so he placed a rattan chair in the small garden.
There is a mat on top.
Although it was midsummer, Shen Chuliu was not afraid of the heat and just lay in the shade.
He fell asleep while talking.
The Sixth Prince, on the other hand, was suffering from a very high fever.
It was not until Yao Chongyuan came that Shen Chuliu woke up and returned to the palace.
When the Sixth Prince was asked to change his clothes, she was also lying down and talking to Yao Chongyuan.
Mainly because my stomach still hurts a little when I sit.
"Is the Queen feeling better? She seems to have lost a lot of weight." Yao Chongyuan said.
"I'm much better now. I'm slowly gaining back the weight I lost."
"By the way, I should thank Yang Yunv." Shen Chuliu said.
"The emperor promoted her to the rank of beauty." Yao Chongyuan said, "But we should thank her, too."
They all knew that if Shen Chuliu had drunk a few more sips of the soup that day, it would probably be...
"It's good that the emperor gave me a promotion, and I should thank her very much. It's such a big thing. It's difficult for me to reward her." It seems that he doesn't value this life-saving grace.
"She has a lively personality and doesn't think too much. Your Majesty just needs to take care of her in the future." Yao Chongyuan said.
"That's right. I'll thank her when I get better. Nothing happened these days, right?" Shen Chuliu asked.
"It's nothing. Such a big thing happened and everyone was scared. Li is gone, and Mei Xiuyi has become obedient now. Speaking of which, after the emperor returned to the capital, she went to ask for an audience many times. The emperor refused to see her. Now her son and daughter are not with them, and it is hard to say whether she can bring them back in the future." Yao Chongyuan said.
"How is her wound?" Shen Chuliu was curious.
"Not very good. She covers it up every day, so it's not as scary as it was at the beginning, but it probably left a scar." Yao Chongyuan shook her head: "What a pity, she is pretty."
Mei Xiuyi was indeed very beautiful, what a pity.
"Yeah, what a pity. How could such a thing happen if I didn't do anything evil?" Shen Chuliu shook his head.
Yao Chongyuan didn't say anything more about this. She sat for a while, and fearing that Shen Chuliu would be tired from forcing herself to be energetic, she left first.
Shen Chuliu really didn't have much strength. After sending Yao Chongyuan away, he drank some water and fell asleep again.
When Shen Chuliu was recuperating, things outside were not peaceful either.
There was a commotion in the court first because the daughter of the Li family was suddenly sentenced to death for murdering the imperial concubine.
Naturally, the Shen family could not let the Li family go, and they submitted several memorials in succession.
It is anger, but also a statement.
But the emperor was not biased.
This makes it very clear.
Immediately afterwards, memorials requesting the appointment of a crown prince once again poured into the Cabinet and Taiji Palace.
The candidates are simple: the third prince, the fourth prince, the fifth prince, the sixth prince, and the ninth prince.
Originally, the Ninth Prince was also a popular candidate, but now there are only a few left.
Their opinion was that although Li was convicted and executed, wasn’t the Sixth Prince adopted by Concubine Yi?
Does that mean that the emperor is still satisfied with the ninth prince? Those who support the third prince think that there is order of seniority, and since the second prince is useless, the third prince is the next in line.
Besides, the third prince did nothing wrong.
However, this number of people supporting him is even less than that of the Ninth Prince.
Four, five, six is a lot.
The fourth prince was of noble birth, had outstanding talents, and his mother's family was also good.
Behind the Fifth Prince, Concubine Shun's family, the Song family, and his biological mother, the Lu family, both have some influence.
There is no need to talk about the Sixth Prince.
As of now, neither the Shen family nor the Pei family has expressed their views, but they are the ones who support him the most.
By mid-July, the emperor finally proposed something.
In the first month of next year, people will start to worship Mount Tai.
Mount Tai is certainly not that Mount Tai, but it was also a place for worshiping heaven and earth in the Dayi Dynasty.
When the emperor mentioned Mount Tai, everyone in the court immediately understood what he meant.
Therefore, the ministers stopped asking for the crown prince to be appointed and instead asked politely, which prince would the emperor take with him? Qi Yixiu was naturally not in a hurry to answer, and the court also understood, that is, it would depend on what happened next year.
Worshiping Mount Tai is no ordinary event.
If the emperor takes all the princes with him, nothing will be revealed. But if he takes only one prince with him, it will be a prelude to establishing a crown prince.
Everyone in the court became nervous, but they still had to wait for half a year.
In the next six months, it is also the time for them to choose whether they can stand in the right place.
There are undercurrents in the court.
Shen Chuliu was finally able to go out.
What the Queen meant was that there was no need to greet.
Shen Chuliu agreed. She really couldn't get up and she still felt weak at this time.
But I can go out for a walk occasionally.
The weather was hot, so Shen Chuliu took a round fan and took people to the Imperial Garden.
In fact, at this time, she was the only one who came to stroll around.
Mainly because it's too hot.
She has damaged her vitality recently and is only afraid of cold but not heat, so she can come out.
So, it was quite a surprise when I met Rongning in the Imperial Garden.
Rongning was also very surprised.
She came here because she thought no one would come at this time.
After all, I'm not from here, so it's better not to get involved.
But since I have seen it, I have to greet you.
"Hello, Concubine Jingxian."
"What a coincidence, Princess, are you here to appreciate the flowers?" Shen Chuliu said with a smile.
"That's right, I didn't know the Queen was coming." Rong Ning said with a smile.
"Sit down. It's just a coincidence." Shen Chuliu said.
She couldn't drink tea now and could only drink water, but she asked someone to serve snacks to Rongning.
"The princess is much taller than when she first arrived." Shen Chuliu said.
"Really? I don't even think so." Rong Ning said with a smile.
"Yeah, he's grown up a bit. Princess, you've been here for a year now, are you used to it?"
"Your Majesty, I'm used to it. It's just hot. It's not that hot in Chaoguo. As long as you stay in the shade in Chaoguo in the summer, it's much more comfortable." Princess Rongning said.
"Really? That's great." Shen Chuliu looked at her. The child had indeed grown taller and more mature.
