On the Emperor's side, the Crown Prince received instructions from the Empress and said to the already dry-mouthed Emperor, Prime Minister Shen, and the other two ministers who were discussing the matter, "My mother said that today is the Crown Princess' birthday, and several tables have been set up in the Imperial Garden, and one table has been specially prepared for my father."
"Even though your father is busy with state affairs, he cannot neglect his stomach. He should take a short rest and have lunch so that he can better handle the affairs of the court." The prince said all the good words, and it was the queen's intention.
The emperor had to give this face.
Besides, the emperor is a little irritable today and doesn’t want to continue. It would be nice for him to take a break.
In this way, the emperor was smoothly invited to the Imperial Garden with several ministers, including Chief Minister Shen.
Chief Minister Shen also deliberately showed off his handkerchief, which was embroidered by Yan Bao overtime. It was originally embroidered with a duck, but in the end it was embroidered with a duck leg.
It's just... pretty cute!
After Shen Shoufu got it, he happily put it in his arms and took it out to look at it from time to time.
Seeing the prince staring at his handkerchief, Shen Shoufu said embarrassedly: "Does the prince need a handkerchief? This cannot be given to you. This was embroidered by my daughter herself. She said she was afraid that the minister would be hungry, so she embroidered a duck leg out of filial piety. Doesn't it look delicious?"
"......" The emperor was too tired to complain. It was just a handkerchief. Who doesn't have daughters? If he opened his mouth, the handkerchiefs embroidered by his little princesses would drown him.
The other two ministers: “…”
Here it comes, here it comes again, Shen Shoufu, this conspicuous bag, started showing off again with the tattered handkerchief embroidered by his daughter.
Prince: “…”
I took a look at it and really didn't want it.
The look in Chief Minister Shen's eyes, isn't it because he wants this prince to praise the embroidery?
To be honest, he felt that the embroidery on his toes was better than this.
Under Prime Minister Shen's expectant gaze, the prince said against his will: "Your daughter is clever and skillful, filial and admirable, Prime Minister Shen is so lucky!"
Shen Shoufu, with a beaming face, waved his hands modestly: "No, no, it's just so-so. It's all thanks to her mother's good teaching!"
After showing off his daughter, he started showing off his wife.
You have a son and a daughter, right?
The two ministers looked at the emperor, who was almost rolling his eyes, and gloated over his misfortune.
Show affection and die quickly!
The emperor and his entourage arrived at the Imperial Garden. Before they could sit down, a palace servant hurried over and said, "Your Majesty, something happened with the female members of the family. There are guards and female members in the dressing room..."
The emperor thought of the murdered concubine. Could it be that someone was...having an affair?
Shen Shoufu had a bad feeling.
The harem is the queen's territory. If the queen wants to plot against someone, it will be difficult for her to escape.
Chief Minister Shen regretted not teasing Yan Bao more this morning and getting some information from her.
Wait, Yan Bao also entered the palace today. If she is here, nothing should happen.
Shen Shoufu didn’t even know that in his heart, Yan Bao was already so reliable!
The prince asked knowingly, "What happened?"
The palace maid hesitated to speak: "Your Majesty, go and see and you will know."
His reaction became more and more subtle.
The emperor had learned from his previous experience and didn't want to be watched by others, so he asked Chief Minister Shen and two other ministers to wait here. The emperor left with the prince and the palace maid who came to report the news.
One of the ministers asked Prime Minister Shen: "Can Madam Shen attend the banquet today?"
"Thanks to the Queen's kindness, my wife and daughter are in the palace." Shen Shoufu secretly clenched his fists. He just saw the way the prince looked at him, and Shen Shoufu was shocked.
The minister had a gloating expression as if he had escaped a disaster: "My wife was unwell and was unable to attend."
Another minister frowned: "My wife has also entered the palace. Minister Shen, tell me, what happened?"
Although Shen Shoufu had already guessed something in his heart, he still said seriously: "Don't guess randomly."
The two ministers looked at each other, secretly curled their lips, and prayed that it would not be their wives who would get into trouble.
The man who couldn't bear to see Prime Minister Shen doing well secretly prayed that it was Madam Shen who would suffer.
......
The emperor and his entourage, accompanied by the crown prince, quickly arrived outside the dressing room. Seeing the locked dressing room, the emperor's expression changed. "Who's in there?"
One of the ladies replied excitedly: “Yes…Mrs. Shen.”
The emperor glanced at the closed door obscurely. Did they think they wouldn't be discovered this way?
joke!
The emperor suddenly became a little excited. The imperial concubine had been caught committing adultery before, and the emperor was very upset.
Now he is not the only one who is cuckolded.
The emperor said excitedly: “Madam Shen, open the door quickly.”
There was no movement in the locker room.
The prince suggested, "How about breaking down the door?"
"After all, she is the wife of an important official of the court. You can't do anything reckless." The emperor glanced at Fu Qi and understood, then immediately went to find Chief Minister Shen.
Shen Shoufu was originally uneasy, but when he heard that Fu Qi came to find him, his face suddenly became bad: "What happened?"
"Mrs. Shen seems to be trapped in the dressing room." Fu Qi mentioned cryptically: "Shen Shoufu, go and take a look. If things get out of hand, I'm afraid..."
Shen Shoufu scolded: “My wife is not that kind of person.”
Chief Minister Shen knew that if there was something wrong, it must be the Queen’s slander.
Shen Shoufu's face was gloomy, and he pursed his lips, not daring to think about it. He knew that his wife would never do anything to let him down or to let the Shen family down.
Queen!
Chief Minister Shen walked away quickly, ignoring the two ministers who were watching the show.
As soon as Chief Minister Shen showed up, many people showed expressions of watching a good show.
