Chapter 672 Face
After Shen Chuliu returned, he entered the study.
He sat there for a while, then picked up a pen and wrote a poem.
He threw away his pen and lay on the soft chair in the study, watching the sky.
She fell asleep when Qi Yan came.
He was covered with a thin blanket.
Qi Yan frowned as he looked at the writing brush and ink on the desk.
"I have never cultivated good deeds in my life, I only love to kill and set fires. Suddenly, the golden rope is loosened, and the jade lock is broken. The tide is coming on the Qiantang River, and today I know who I am."
Qi Yan took the piece of paper and looked at the sleeping Shen Chuliu a few more times, then went out to the outer room.
"What happened today?"
Zhemei stepped forward and told him what happened in the morning.
Qi Yan nodded, folded the paper and put it directly into his clothes.
He knew that his mother was talking about Shen Biyu, but it also meant many people in the palace.
My mother once said that it’s okay for a person to be confused throughout his life, as he will understand it when he dies. Even if it’s too late, he will feel relieved.
Is this the case with Shen Biyu? Qi Yan actually doesn't remember, because when he was very young, Shen Biyu became a dresser, and there was no need for her mother to worry.
Old Mrs. Qu from the Shen family passed away a long time ago, and now Shen Changjing has also passed away.
Shen Biyu is also in trouble.
Maybe mother will be sad too?
"Go and tell Concubine Shen to bring her grandson to the palace and talk to my mother." Qi Yan said.
Yuanxiao agreed and asked someone to pass on the message.
When Shen Chuliu woke up, he didn't remember what he had written.
She just couldn't remember Qi Yan's jokes.
After the mother and daughter had lunch, she was taken to Luming Lake in the afternoon.
Shen Chuliu knew that his son was kind-hearted, so he simply threw those random things to him to play with.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince still has a lot of childishness.
Even catching butterflies.
Shen Chuliu couldn't bear to look at him: "You are like this, it reminds me of when I took you to the palace when you were little. You couldn't walk yet, but you insisted on chasing butterflies, and your nanny was exhausted. Go back and ask your nanny, I'm sure she will remember it clearly."
"Ah? There is such a thing? Are you trying to frame me, mother?" Qi Yan didn't believe it.
"I'm still coaxing you? How many stupid things did you do when you were a child? When we were returning to the imperial city from the palace, you got up early. You were not fully awake and kept crying. I could only hold you in my arms in the carriage and continue to sleep. But you woke up and stopped crying. I hadn't gotten up yet and you peed all over me..." Shen Chuliu found it funny just thinking about it.
Qi Yan looked at her with a look of "Mom, please stop talking! Don't I have any dignity?" "Mom!"
"Okay, okay, I won't say anything. You can still eat! You're such a glutton! You cry if I don't give you enough to eat, and your father thinks I'm abusing you!" Shen Chuliu couldn't hold it in anymore.
Qi Yan was about to bang his head on the ground: "Mom, I was wrong, I was really wrong. Please give me some face. How can I, the prince, face people in the future? Ah?" Qi Yan was about to cry.
"Okay." Shen Chuliu smiled at him.
"The naughty kid has become taller than me in a blink of an eye. I am so upset. Hey, you won't let me pinch you even though I haven't pinched you enough." Shen Chuliu's hands are itching.
Qi Yan bent down without saying anything and said, "Pinch, pinch, pinch as hard as you can."
Shen Chuliu decisively reached out and pinched his face. Although Qi Yan was thin, his baby fat was still there.
The feel is still good.
When the mother and daughter were quarreling, He Cairen and Xue Jieyu came.
These two people have had a good relationship this year.
Because the road was not cleared, they would always come to pay their respects once they saw it.
"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Majesty the Imperial Concubine Jing." Concubine Xue took the lead, followed by Concubine He.
"No need to be so polite." Qi Yan stood up straight.
"The weather is nice today, and I meet you by chance." Shen Chuliu said.
"Yes, it's been a long time since I saw Your Majesty strolling around Luming Lake. Is Your Majesty feeling well?" asked Concubine Xue.
"Thank you for your concern. That's great." Shen Chuliu said with a smile.
This Concubine Xue has a good personality and is also intelligent.
Although he was not favored over the years, he was able to be promoted gradually and occasionally sleep with the emperor, which was considered very impressive.
Having a daughter means that even if she cannot become one of the Nine Concubines, she will not be helpless in the future.
He Cairen is a little impetuous, after all, he is young.
However, no matter how impetuous he was, he didn't dare to say much when he met Shen Chuliu.
When Qi Yan met his father's concubine, he became very serious. After saying a few words, he was about to send Shen Chuliu back.
Shen Chuliu didn't need him to send her off, and walked back on her own.
After they left, He Cairen said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has grown up, and he is very close to Concubine Jing."
"I advise you to be more sensible and stop thinking about these nonsense. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the biological son of Concubine Jing, and they have been close since childhood. Until now, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince always has lunch with the Concubine at noon. It's natural that they are close. You are courting death by saying this." Concubine Xue said.
"What are you talking about, sister? I'll just talk to you. Where else would I dare to tell it?" He Cairen snorted.
"Don't tell me, don't even think about it." Concubine Xue said.
"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you, sister." He Cairen pulled her sleeve with a smile.
But to be honest, the young concubines also have dreams, for example, whether they can replace the imperial concubine or something like that.
But without that favor, everything is in vain.
Nowadays, few concubines can be pampered like Shen Chuliu and her group in the past.
That night, the emperor did not enter the harem.
Shen Chuliu didn't think much about it and went to bed early.
The next morning, Shen Chuliu knew. At night, Shen went to change clothes.
According to the rules, the body has been prepared and sent out.
"The emperor said that he would posthumously confer a title of beauty on her." Zhemei said.
"Then let's follow the rules." Shen Chuliu said, "When a beauty passes away, at least her maid can kowtow to her properly."
"Lady Shen has left her things to Zhijin and Baiguo. These two people also kowtowed to her and saw her off when she left the palace." Zhemei said.
"We also delivered it according to the rules here."
"That's good." Shen Chuliu took a deep breath and said, "Let's go. Go and pay your respects."
In Fengzao Palace, people naturally talked about Concubine Shen in the morning.
To be honest, if she wasn't Shen Chuliu's cousin, how many people would remember her?
However, Shen Chuliu is now in a high position, and it is no longer like when Shen Biyu first entered the palace, when everyone wanted to make trouble for her.
Some people even expressed their condolences with true feelings.
Shen Chuliu just agreed to everything.
Not long after Shen Chuliu returned to Yufu Palace, she heard a message from Taiji Palace calling her over.
So I changed my clothes and went to Tai Chi Palace.
Qi Yixiu saw her and looked at her expression: "Are you feeling unwell? She has been ill for several years. It's better for her to die. She won't suffer anymore."
"I'm not close to her." Shen Chuliu said.
The emperor just smiled and said nothing more.
He thought, this woman is just being stubborn.
"Since everything is fine, stay here with me." Qi Yixiu said.
Shen Chuliu agreed. It had been a long time since he had served him with writing materials.
However, ever since she fell ill, the emperor couldn't bear to overwork her.
The morning passed like this, and at noon, we had lunch at Taiji Palace.
Qi Yixiu still had to meet with ministers and had a lot of things to do, so Shen Chuliu went back first.
I have never cultivated good deeds in my life. This is the verse of Lu Zhishen in Water Margin. To me, many of the three views in Water Margin are... Anyway, I think Lu Zhishen's death in Qiantang River was the best time in his life. I emphasize the key points, but it's just my opinion.
