Chapter 686 The crying child gets the milk
"Master, the Thirteenth Prince has woken up." The maid came in and said.
It was natural for everyone to let this section pass.
Qi Yan also said: "Then my son will take a look at his thirteenth brother and take his ninth brother away."
Qi Yixiu smiled and patted his shoulder.
The Ninth Prince looked at him hatefully, but even though he hated him, there was no trace of extreme distortion and gloom in his eyes.
I also took a look inside.
When he was too angry, he didn't care about the consequences, but after all, he was throwing a child who was much younger than him into the lake.
When I knew I was safe, I would still worry whether the person I harmed was still alive.
This is not kindness, it's just fear.
No one asked the Crown Prince how to deal with the Ninth Prince.
The emperor’s consent is everything.
That day, Empress Dowager Li was first frightened and then angry. By evening, she could not get up.
I'm old now and can't stand things like this.
If you don't ask anyone to take care of you when you are sick, it means that no one wants to see you.
At night, after Shen Chuliu finished his dinner, he digested the food in the small garden.
Yuan Xiao followed up: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince meant to choose a palace for His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince to live in, and to go to the Hongwen Hall to study as usual, but the people around him should be replaced if necessary, and someone trustworthy should be watching over him."
"The people around Lao Jiu have changed so many times. Is there anyone willing to serve him now?" Shen Chuliu said.
This kid has been in trouble since he was young, all kinds of things, and I don’t know how many people have been tricked by him.
In today's incident, the master was fine, but the eunuch who followed him was in trouble again.
"To answer my master, no one is willing to serve, but there is nothing we can do. Besides, this time, it is our prince who is choosing the person, so it is not serving the Ninth Prince, but serving our prince." Yuanxiao said.
"Well, that's fine. Just pass on the message that Old Nine is not allowed to beat or scold the servants at will. Since it was Yan'er who chose the person, he cannot be buried again." Shen Chuliu said.
Yuanxiao responded and left.
"It is said that the Empress Dowager is ill." Nanny Zhang was walking with her.
"Are you sick with anger?" Shen Chuliu asked.
"He is probably angry, but the Empress Dowager has said that there is no need for anyone to go and see him," said Nanny Zhang.
"Oh, how can I not be angry when I have such a child?" Xinlu sighed.
Shen Chuliu smiled.
"The child is innocent after all. He was doted on in the past few years. When he felt a little uncomfortable, he was taken back immediately. His studies were also intermittent. Now that he is suddenly ignored, it is not surprising that he does anything. I just feel sorry for the Thirteenth Prince. By the way, how is the Thirteenth Prince?"
"My lord, the Thirteenth Prince hasn't said anything about what happened. I guess he is fine?" Suihong said uncertainly.
Shen Chuliu nodded: "Then it should be nothing. It's better to be nothing. A child who did nothing and suffered so much should just live well."
"The master has a kind heart." said Nanny Zhang.
Shen Chuliu smiled and didn't respond.
No matter whether they are kind or not, normal people always hope that children are well.
Even though children are sometimes really annoying, we still hope that they are well.
When Qi Yixiu arrived, Shen Chuliu had just returned from the small garden and washed her hair.
Qi Yixiu came in and frowned: "How do you serve me when I need to wash my hair so late at night?"
Xinlu and the others were so scared that they immediately knelt down and dared not say a word.
Shen Chuliu waved her hand: "Are you still not serving the Emperor?"
Xinlu responded in a low voice and got up to get busy.
"I didn't plan to wash it. I went to the small garden and saw a bug fell from the tree. I had sequelae from the scare I got from the scorpion that year, so I went to wash it immediately and it all got on my head. I won't be able to sleep tonight if I don't wash it." Shen Chuliu frowned.
Qi Yixiu thought about the scene and laughed: "Forget it, it really left a problem."
"This is really a lifelong problem." Shen Chuliu sighed.
Suihong wiped her hair, Xinlu and Baiyan helped Qi Yixiu wash her hands and served her tea.
"How is the Empress Dowager?" Shen Chuliu asked.
"I feel a little chest tightness, but it's no big deal." Qi Yixiu went to the empress dowager's place at night. The empress dowager did not allow anyone else to go, but the emperor was sure to go.
"I'm glad you're okay." Shen Chuliu didn't know what to say, and the Queen Mother also...
Everything was fine before, but things have been bad in the past few years.
"I'll take you to the palace in the suburbs tomorrow." Qi Yixiu said.
"Going now? Isn't it almost Mid-Autumn Festival?" Shen Chuliu was surprised.
"Just come back before Mid-Autumn Festival and go out to relax." Qi Yixiu was almost annoyed himself, and he guessed that Shen Chuliu was the same.
"That's fine. Will the princes go?" Shen Chuliu asked.
"No, I'll take you for a walk alone. I'll ask the opera troupe to follow us, and we'll go listen to opera for a few days." Qi Yixiu said, "You haven't listened to it properly in the past few years, have you?"
"There are a lot of things going on in the palace. I only listen to it during the holidays, but I'm not as interested as before." Shen Chuliu smiled.
When her hair was almost done, she combed it slowly herself.
"I still remember that year when you went to watch a play in the palace by yourself. I went there and you pretended to be happy, but in fact you were annoyed that I disturbed you." Qi Yixiu looked at her with a smile.
Shen Chuliu blinked: "There's still this? You didn't punish me?"
Qi Yixiu laughed out loud: "Well, you are much more skilled at pretending now than you were back then. It shows that you have been pretending a lot over the years."
"...Thank you, Your Majesty, for the praise?" Shen Chuliu looked at the emperor.
The emperor just smiled and said, "Never mind, I'll spare you."
Qi Yixiu thought, for many things, you have to recall them slowly to know what they really are.
But there are so many people in the harem that it is impossible for the emperor to remember so many things.
As Shen Chuliu said to Su He, the emperor is busy, how can you expect him to watch the concubines? Or, if you don't have money, do you expect the emperor to understand you?
All the same.
The crying child gets the milk.
The principle is the same.
All the food and things Shen Chuliu used in these years were the best, because from the beginning she had the right attitude and would not settle for anything less than that.
The emperor was used to it.
For example, Shen Chuliu once threw a piece of eyebrow pencil in front of the emperor, saying, "Can this thing be used? It's better not to paint."
And later on, all the eyebrow pencils she got were of the best quality.
To put it bluntly, that thing is rare, but if I give you a box, you can use it for half your life.
Of course, that’s off topic.
Qi Yixiu felt the same way. When he thought back to the past, he also saw different perspectives.
However, both of them are not young anymore, so there is no point in fussing over trivial matters.
But at night, Shen Chuliu, who had not been taught a lesson for a long time, was finally taught a lesson.
The emperor was very satisfied, but Shen Chuliu was devastated.
I couldn't get up the next day as I wished.
However, Imperial Concubine Jing is not in good health these days and often fails to pay her respects.
Since the Queen didn't say anything, no one dared to mention it.
The good news the next day was that the Queen Mother was just like that, and the Thirteenth Prince's fever subsided and he gradually got better.
Shen Chuliu simply asked someone to go to the Queen Mother to greet her, and also to send some gifts to the Thirteenth Prince to greet him.
