Chapter 653: No Meeting
This is a great honor.
Moreover, Qi Yixiu issued an order to have Shen Zhong take over the title of Duke. He was still Duke Jing'an.
The emperor even wrote the elegiac couplet with his own handwriting.
Shen Changjing's funeral was naturally grand, with the Crown Prince in charge and his own merits, so it was natural to be so.
After all, there are not many ministers of his weight.
On the day of the funeral, all the princes had to come and burn a stick of incense to bid farewell to the old minister.
Shen Chuliu was in the womb, listening to the news outside. She didn't cry, nor did she feel sick.
It seemed like they just quietly sent this person away and passed on.
In June, another letter was sent out.
She had always been good to Chi Su, and this time, the dowry was not small. Chi Su left the palace crying.
Zhemei supported Shen Chuliu: "Master, I can always accompany you for the rest of your life. I am not smart, but I am loyal."
Shen Chuliu smiled.
Zi Rui and Zi Zhu, Ji Mei Chi Su, she also sent away four maids.
Although she felt sad, she wasn't too upset. After all, she couldn't waste these girls' lives.
"Let's go back." Shen Chuliu said.
She did not return to the main hall, but went to the small garden.
At these times, there are a lot of people coming to her, and she can't just ignore them.
It’s been so quiet for a long time.
Make a pot of tea and sit in the small garden to read a book.
When the emperor came over, he smiled and said, "Fortunately, I was upset because I thought about you sending your maid out of the palace today, but you are relieved."
"I'm reluctant to let her go, so how can I not be happy? She found a good husband, and she can live her life there after leaving the palace. I am happy." Shen Chuliu stood up and bowed.
The emperor shook his head and pulled her to sit down: "Only you don't feel hot. I can't sit here."
"Your Majesty, why don't you sit down? Let's go back." Shen Chuliu said as he stood up.
So the two of them returned to the main hall, but Shen Chuliu was now weak and couldn't stand the cold, so they couldn't let in too much cold air.
But it wasn't that hot in the temple.
After Qi Yixiu washed his hands and face with cold water, the heat subsided.
Shen Chuliu also applied mint dew on his temples.
It is even more refreshing.
During these times, the emperor often came, probably because of Shen Changjing's affairs.
Shen Chuliu knew what was going on.
Qi Yixiu asked someone to set up the chessboard again. Shen Chuliu smiled speechlessly, but played two games with him.
The emperor was very satisfied.
Shen Chuliu thought, if this man didn't want to be an emperor, he might want to be a chess master or something like that? After playing chess, it was time for lunch. In the afternoon, Qi Yixiu hadn't left yet.
It seems like he wants to spend a day here.
Shen Chuliu didn't care.
Then he started chatting with him.
She was in her study, looking at the sun outside. On one side, it was hot outside, and on the other side, there was ice in the room.
The taste is unmatched.
Shen Chuliu sat at the low table, looking out the open French window while flipping through a book.
"It's going to rain." Qi Yixiu, who was also reading a book, suddenly said.
Shen Chuliu looked up and although the sun was shining brightly, there were indeed dark clouds coming from the west.
The people below also quickly cleaned up.
Sure enough, half an hour later, the sky turned gloomy and thunder rumbled.
Shen Chuliu had no choice but to get up and walk inside, as the floor-to-ceiling windows here had to be closed.
After a while, a thunderstorm came down and was blown in all directions by the wind.
It was not suitable to watch the rain from here, so the two of them moved to the other side, where the windows were all made of large glass.
After serving tea, Qi Yixiu leaned comfortably against the cushion.
Shen Chuliu also leaned next to him.
Just listening to the sound of rain, even if the thunder is very loud, it doesn't seem to have much impact.
Shen Chuliu began to feel drowsy, so she reached out to take off the big hairpin on her head and threw it aside.
Qi Yixiu was also feeling a little sleepy, so he held her in his arms, and just like that, he lay on the couch in the outer room, listening to the thunder and rain, and closed his eyes.
After a while, Zhemei covered their waists and abdomens with a thin blanket.
Shen Chuliu slept for a while and actually had a dream.
When I opened my eyes, it was already dusk and the rain had stopped.
Qi Yixiu also opened his eyes at almost the same time, looked outside, then looked at her again and smiled.
Shen Chuliu also laughed.
The two still said nothing.
They just stood up tacitly, washed up, and asked someone to serve the meal. After eating, Qi Yixiu suggested: "Let's go for a walk?"
Shen Chuliu agreed, asked someone to bring two mosquito repellent sachets to hang up, and then went to the Imperial Garden together.
It was not yet dark, and the two men had just come out of Yu Fu Palace without clearing the way.
So it's not uncommon to run into people.
However, things were different now. The people he ran into were Concubine Xue and Lady Zhuang, and they quickly left.
Shen Chuliu and the emperor were admiring the flowers, and it became dark as they walked.
Because it had rained heavily, the smell of earth still lingered in the air. It was not unpleasant but very fresh.
The two of them chatted about daily life and then left.
When he was tired, he took the lantern and slowly returned to Yufu Palace. Perhaps he was tired from the journey, because at night, he slept well as usual, without any impact from the two naps in the afternoon.
There was no conversation that night, except in the morning when Shen Chuliu was woken up by the noise.
It turns out that the emperor is a carnivore.
She is in much better health now and can withstand the hardship, and the emperor has no intention of letting her go.
Anyway, after all the trouble, Concubine Jing can't go to pay her respects.
The emperor left feeling refreshed.
That afternoon, Yuanxiao said that the Thirteenth Prince had called the imperial physician again.
Shen Chuliu was no longer surprised by what she heard.
The Thirteenth Prince has to be called every few days.
"Is this serious?"
"It shouldn't be as serious as the previous times. His Highness the Thirteenth Prince always has trouble digesting food. He can't just drink milk all the time." Yuanxiao said.
Shen Chuliu nodded. A one and a half year old child couldn't just rely on breast milk.
But the Thirteenth Prince had trouble digesting even soft rice porridge.
But if he doesn't eat, he'll look like a severely malnourished child. The key is that he still wants to eat...
Why.
"It's not easy to raise this child for a year and a half." He is so strong that he is still alive.
"This time, Mei Xiuyi didn't dare to go." Yuan Xiao said.
"Even if you make a fuss every time and make the emperor dislike you, you have to learn it eventually," said Zhemei.
"It's not possible not to go. If she doesn't care, it will seem that she is cold and indifferent." Shen Chuliu shook her head.
In fact, people are like this. When you reach a dead end, left, right, front, and back are all wrong.
The main thing is that the people in power think you are wrong, then you are wrong in every way.
"Yeah, it's difficult for her too. But it's all my fault." Zhemei said.
Zhemei didn't like her.
The main thing is that this person has been imitating his master in every way since he entered the palace. Who can like such a person? Shen Chuliu doesn't care about people who have nothing to do with her.
Mei Xiuyi is bound to not be able to make any big waves.
In Taiping Palace, Concubine Yan was drinking soup.
She listened to the news outside, but just drank her soup calmly.
After rinsing his mouth, he asked, "Are you safe now?"
"She dared not to be restless, and she made trouble several times but to no avail. The Queen Mother was determined not to allow her to see anyone." Mu He said with a smile.
