Chen Fu's sedan had just left when a figure walked out from behind the vermilion door frame.
"Master Shen." Madam Hu glanced at the sedan chair in the distance, then turned her gaze back to Shen Changshan.
"Sir Shen, the Queen Mother is still waiting for you."
Shen Changshan came back to his senses and lowered his head to hide the disappointment on his face.
"Please lead the way, auntie."
He didn't ask when Madam Hu came.
As soon as Shen Fu left and the sedan chair left, this nanny appeared before him.
There was no other reason except that she had been waiting for him here early in the morning.
I'm afraid that Madam Hu heard clearly what he and Shen Fu just said here.
Shen Changshan knew that the deep palace was dangerous and he had to tread on thin ice all the way.
But this is the time when he can be considered experienced.
As for Chen Fu, she has neither background nor family support since she entered the palace.
He broke into the palace alone and was able to achieve his current status. It can be seen how much effort he put in private.
His daughter is definitely not an ordinary person.
Shen Changshan thought of the figure he had just seen and couldn't help but sigh deeply.
Maybe it was a wrong decision for him to choose Shen Qingru and abandon Shen Fu.
A feeling of regret flashed through Shen Changshan's mind.
But before he could think about it, Madam Hu came up to him and said, "The Queen Mother has been waiting for a long time, Lord Shen, let's go."
Shen Changshan's restless heart flashed away, and he raised his head and looked at Madam Hu in front of him.
He lowered his head and followed: "Excuse me, Madam, the Queen Mother summoned me to the palace. Do you know why?"
The young eunuch who had just led the way had disappeared into nowhere.
Madam Hu took the lead and walked towards the Wanshou Palace. When she heard what he said, she smiled and said without turning her head, "Didn't Lord Shen just hear what Concubine Zhao said?"
"The Queen Mother and Concubine Zhao are not on good terms. The Queen Mother invited you to the palace because she wanted you to check and balance Concubine Zhao."
Aunt Hu said it without any concealment. Even if Shen Changshan was prepared in his heart, he was shocked when it was said so blatantly.
"Mammy, you just heard it too." Shen Changshan reminded: "Empress Zhao, she,"
"There is not much affection between me and the Concubine Zhao. I am afraid that the Concubine Zhao will not listen to me."
Shen Changshan didn't want to deal with Shen Fu. He felt guilty towards his daughter and naturally didn't want to do these things again and make her disgusted.
"If not, Your Majesty wouldn't have said those words to me in public just now."
"Sir Shen." Madam Hu interrupted him and said, "Sir Shen, please think about your wife Cui."
With just one word, Shen Changshan swallowed back the next words.
Yes, he is not just himself, he also carries the fate of the Shen family and Ying Niang's fate on his shoulders.
Yingniang has already been through this, isn’t it miserable enough?
She has been with me for so long, but I haven't even given her a name.
Daughter Qingru is dead and Yingniang is unconscious.
If I can't even save Yingniang's life, how can I have the face to live in this world?
Shen Changshan thought of Cui Yingniang, and the pity that had just appeared in his eyes disappeared completely at this moment.
“Don’t worry, Lord Shen. The Empress Dowager will not do anything to Empress Zhao.” Madam Hu glanced at Shen Changshan’s expression behind her and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
Looking at the gate of Wanshou Palace in front of her, Madam Hu said, "As long as Concubine Zhao is obedient."
"What if Concubine Zhao doesn't obey?" Shen Changshan regained consciousness and couldn't help asking.
The two of them had already reached the gate of Wanshou Palace. Madam Hu looked at the gate in front of her and just smiled: "In this world, besides His Majesty, the most respected person is the Empress Dowager."
"The Queen Mother just took away what was rightfully hers."
A light breeze blew, and the bells hanging on the eaves swayed gently.
Madam Hu turned her head and looked at Shen Changshan who was standing in the cold wind behind her.
