Chapter 166 Slowly
I felt like vomiting when I got the news from the Queen. The murderous intent that I had put aside was now brought up again.
The queen sneered: "It is the Queen Mother who doesn't care about her life, so it's not my fault."
Now that this man has been sent to the Queen Mother, it is difficult to take action right now, but there will always be a chance, and there is always a future.
Xuanyuan Ling thought that the Queen Mother would cause trouble or have an attack of illness, so he didn't plan to see the Queen Mother and asked Zhao Hai not to send any messages.
But when Zhao Hai got the news, he didn't dare not send it back.
He really admired the empress dowager. She took back the person that the emperor sent out. This was a slap in the emperor's face.
Does the Queen Mother really not think this is inappropriate at all? The Emperor is the Emperor.
He had to report this news, even though he knew Xuanyuan Ling would be angry if he found out, but he would be guilty if he didn't report it.
When Xuanyuan Ling heard the news that someone was sent back, he said expressionlessly: "If I see Chen Mianmian again, Zhao Hai, you don't have to be the chief steward anymore."
Zhao Hai's heart skipped a beat and he quickly agreed. At this moment, he really blamed Chen Mianmian. This person had become a thorn in his throat.
The Empress Dowager is really not afraid of being disgusted.
I was thinking to myself, if the Emperor had some patience towards the Queen Mother in the past, I'm afraid he doesn't have any at all now. Queen Mother, what is the point of doing this?
The Queen Mother was making a fuss, and Xuanyuan Ling had no intention of looking for Shen Qing.
If he goes now, he might be watched and that might not be good for Shen Qing.
I was just feeling better because of the success of political affairs, but now I am really upset.
Instead of looking for Chen Qing, he went to see the child. The eldest prince was still doing his homework obediently. He was always diligent in his homework. Since Shunpin had angered Xuanyuan Ling last time, she didn't dare to say anything this time. She was never eloquent and was a little dull, so she was not favored. Xuanyuan Ling knew her temper, but after all, since he thought the eldest prince was good today, he stayed for lunch.
Shunpin was still very happy holding the eldest prince's hand.
I went to Concubine Chun again in the afternoon. Concubine Chun had taken the third prince out. Since I had been planning to see the third princess anyway, I went to see her.
The Third Princess has seven servants alone, which is more than the number of princesses, and even the princes don't have that many. This is because Xuanyuan Ling was afraid that Concubine Yu would be lonely without her, so he took special care of her.
The third princess saw Xuanyuan Ling's face full of joy.
Xuanyuan Ling felt better only after meeting the third princess.
And Concubine Chun and the Third Prince, who were going out, happened to meet Shen Qing.
This was really a coincidence. Given the pleasant conversation they had previously had, this time when Chen Qing and Concubine Chun met and smiled at each other, it really felt like they were meeting again as if they were old friends.
Concubine Chun even laughed at her: "You're not afraid of getting tanned anymore." Chen Qing is in favor now, so he should be very concerned about his appearance, which is different from her who doesn't want the emperor's favor.
Chen Qing said: "It's not good to stay in the house all the time. The old people in my hometown said that more sun exposure can help you grow taller."
Concubine Chun laughed when she said that, and only then did she realize that Shen Qing was a girl several years younger than her, and quite cute.
The two of them walked together, and Chen Qing talked about his experience in sun protection and whitening. After all, Concubine Chun was also a woman, and she was naturally attracted by what Chen Qing said.
The two finally said goodbye, and when they turned around, Chen Qing wrote a booklet about her experience in beauty and hairdressing and sent it to her, and also attached a recipe for a facial mask and wrote down some precautions.
Concubine Chun really laughed: "She is quite generous. I can't be stingy, right?"
So Chen Qing received a return gift from Concubine Chun, a box of bird's nest. It was not ordinary bird's nest, but blood bird's nest. This thing was rare, which reminded Chen Qing of the big Ganoderma lucidum that Concubine Chun gave her last time.
She also found it funny: "Empress Chunfei always gives good things. I must give her some rare items later. I must give her something that she doesn't have."
Fang Yun looked at Chen Qing and Concubine Chun's friendship and felt like her little girl had finally made a friend: "Concubine Chun has a good family background, is a concubine, and now has the Third Prince by her side, so there are all kinds of good things in the palace." She added: "Of course, your Majesty also has a lot of good things."
Chen Qing said: "I think Concubine Chun has more rare items than I do. I really can't think of anything to give her for the time being."
She and Concubine Chun were giving gifts to each other, and she felt quite happy thinking about it.
But it also reminded her of the original novel where Concubine Chun helped the heroine in the end because the fifth prince was murdered...
Yes, in the original novel, Concubine Chun adopted the fifth prince, not the third prince, so the plot has been twisted to this extent, and Shen Qing really can only take it one step at a time.
Now Concubine Chun has adopted the third prince. I wonder if Concubine Chun will join the heroine's side in the end because the third prince is plotted against by the queen?
Of course, this is all a story for the future. The plot is the plot after all. She now feels very good about her relationship with Concubine Chun. The third prince also looks very cute. Children are still cute and they can be together for the time being. After all, there is no conflict between them now.
It's still good now. The children are all young and there are not many of them. The queen has no legitimate son. But when the time comes, there will be blood and gore in the harem just for the position of the crown prince.
It depends on whether Concubine Li’s baby is a boy or a girl.
In this harem, if the Queen has no children, the harem will be unstable. If the Queen has children, it will still be unstable. The Queen's legitimate son will not be able to sit firmly on the throne of the Crown Prince, and even if he is able to sit firmly on the throne, he still has to guard against others, which will still be unstable. There will never be any peace.
Thinking about this makes me tired, but at least eating is not tiring. The most satisfying thing in this palace is food.
As Shen Qing was eating, he became really interested: "Wang Lu, why don't you go and ask around, isn't our Zhaohua Palace still short of a cook? Why don't you go back and ask the emperor for this cook?"
Fang Yun and Wang Lu both laughed. Not only did he miss the food, he even wanted to take the chef away. Is that okay? The master was so cute.
Wang Lu hurriedly said, "I'll go ask right away."
"Remember to give a reward." Shen Qing said.
Wang Lu quickly agreed.
Wang Lu went to inquire, and someone reported to Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai was delighted when he heard it, and hurried to report to Xuanyuan Ling.
These are all bad things. It's so rare that there is something that can make the emperor happy, right?
Xuanyuan Ling was accompanying the third princess. He laughed when he heard Shen Qing asking someone to ask about the cook. He had noticed before that this little thing was very satisfied with the cook in the palace, and now she was really asking about him blatantly.
I wanted to just give it to her directly, but then I thought, if this little thing needs a cook, she might have to come to him for help.
He really wanted to know how she was going to beg him, so he just took it slow.
