Chapter 241 Reminder
What the Empress Dowager likes most about Concubine Shu is knowing the truth.

Concubine Shu is very good at winking, knowing when to keep it and when to withdraw.

The Empress Dowager likes smart people.

It is true that the Empress Dowager is not worried about Concubine Shu doing anything that will harm the interests of the Emperor, but since this is a big matter, smart people should pay attention.

It's about Zhao Lin's posthumous son, if one less person knows about it, don't let one more person listen to it.

And their mother and son's defense against the Qin family is also the same.

If Concubine Shu knew some inside information and heard the emperor mention "Qin family", she would take the initiative to withdraw.

That wasn't something she could or should hear.

Concubine Shu didn't move, she didn't realize it, so she didn't know anything about it.

The Empress Dowager took her gaze away from Concubine Shu, and glanced at the Emperor lightly.

Annoyance flashed in the emperor's eyes.

Would he fail to see what the queen mother was thinking about?

The situation that the queen mother cares about is also what he will pay attention to and avoid!

Would he say things that shouldn't be mentioned in front of Concubine Shu?
Obviously, in the eyes of the queen mother, he is "will".

Not only this time, but many times before, the queen mother questioned him and didn't trust him.

All of a sudden, those memories came flooding back, making him extremely uncomfortable.

Suppressing his emotions, the emperor said slowly: "The queen mother hasn't seen Mrs. Hou for some time, right? Why don't you call her into the palace later, because you are also sympathetic to her husband and son who are fighting abroad."

The empress dowager was deep in thought when she heard the words.

If it was the emperor's impromptu thought after she stopped her, and she refused, the emperor would be even more annoyed.

Don't think she can't see it, the emperor's proposal was made in a suppressed temper.

After getting angry and arguing again, Concubine Shu's intentions were in vain again.

If the emperor originally wanted to say that, then she had wrongly blamed the emperor just now, and she would add fuel to the fire if she refused.

It would be better to do it according to the emperor's idea, which can be regarded as an apology.

After all, what the emperor mentioned is not a bad idea.

In particular, she saw through the "chance encounter" the day before yesterday was intentional, and that girl from the Qin family was not stupid, so she most likely saw through too.

The Qin family will be dissatisfied and defensive now. It is also a way for her to come forward and stabilize Mrs. Yongninghou.

Speaking of which, that "encounter" is really, it's a surprise!

No matter how suspicious Lin Fan and the Marquis of Yongning were, Qin Yin and Qin Wei were still marching west, so the capital could not move the female family members of the Qin family inexplicably.

This is a big taboo in conquest!

"I don't have anything to do in the afternoon, just to invite Mrs. Hou over." The Empress Dowager said.

The emperor got the approval letter, so he didn't care about it, and said: "I'll go back and approve the papers first."

Only then did Concubine Shu stand up.

The atmosphere between the mother and son was undercurrent, and Concubine Shu could see everything in her eyes, and she knew exactly how she should react.

Therefore, when the emperor mentioned the "Qin family", she absolutely could not avoid it.

Once avoided, she is exposed.

With the sensitivity of the Empress Dowager, it will be very difficult for Concubine Shu to get back together.

And without the trust of the empress dowager, her hard work over the years will be in vain.

Fortunately, she concealed it well.

"Your Majesty," Concubine Shu said with a smile, "this concubine will send one to the emperor."

The Empress Dowager nodded with her.

Concubine Shu sent the emperor out.

After leaving the hall, the emperor strode out.

Under the corridor, Nanny Xia has already done everything and is going back to the Empress Dowager.

The emperor cast a sidelong glance at her, kept walking, and without waiting for Eunuch Xu, he led the others out of the Palace of Compassion and Peace.

Concubine Shu respectfully sent her off, turned around, and did not directly return to the Empress Dowager.

The nuns of the Compassionate Ning Palace live in the Xibei Hall in the backyard.

Concubine Shu passed through the Moon Cave Gate, and saw Xu Gonggong talking with two nuns outside the supporting hall.

Eunuch Xu turned his back and didn't notice Concubine Shu. He only turned his head when he saw the nuns saluting.

Concubine Shu went forward and said with a smile: "The emperor has returned to the imperial study. I didn't see you, Eunuch Xu, so I came around."

Eunuch Xu hurriedly said: "The emperor is very concerned about the health of the second prince and concubine, so the miscellaneous family babbled a few words, but it was a waste of time. Fortunately, the empress came to remind me, so the miscellaneous family hurried back."

Concubine Shu nodded.

After Eunuch Xu finished speaking, he trotted away.

Concubine Shu saw that he had gone out of the moon cave gate and disappeared, so she asked with a smile on her face: "Madam Xia pointed out the two to take care of the second prince and concubine, right? The empress dowager is also concerned."

There are two nuns, one surnamed Zheng and the other surnamed Wu.

Concubine Shu lowered her voice, and said: "Speaking of which, Miss Qin is also in Anguo Gong's mansion. She was in front of the Empress Dowager just now, and the Emperor didn't mention it. Mommy would like to mention, if the second imperial concubine has anything to do with Miss Qin..."

The two nuns exchanged a look.

Concubine Shu is a celebrity in front of the Empress Dowager, this point is also a good intention, so they are also willing to sell it.

"Eunuch Xu just said this," Nanny Wu said softly, "It's because of the Imperial Garden, the second princess is probably angry, let us take care of it, and don't make her suffer."

Concubine Shu was puzzled: "Careful?"

"Yes," Wu Momo was a little embarrassed, thinking it was Concubine Shu, she let go of it a little bit, and spoke more bluntly, "The second concubine is pregnant, and her temper is unavoidable. Her breath is not smooth, and it is easy to damage her body. Issued to.

And Miss Qin is sensible, so she shouldn't care about it, but clay figurines will be angry, if Miss Qin gets angry, let us deal with it. "

Concubine Shu understood.

What Eunuch Xu asked these two to do was to shake a fan in front of the alchemy furnace.

When the fire was low, the fan shook violently, the fire was too hot, so hurry up and slow down.

However, people are not alchemy furnaces, they can hold the fire, but they can't be extinguished in a short time, especially Jin Shu'er's temper.

It takes a big bucket of cold water.

Do the nuns dare to "splash"?

impossible.

I have no choice but to persuade with nice words, what effect can it have?
Eunuch Xu got the emperor's instruction, would the emperor not understand this?
The emperor obviously wanted Jin Shu'er to burn hot, and set Qin Luan's clay figurine on fire.

In addition, Mrs. Yongninghou was invited to the Palace of Compassion by the Empress Dowager...

Concubine Shu's heart sank.

On the face, she still showed no emotion, with a kind smile: "The two mothers should go to work now, I will go back to the empress dowager first."

Walk quickly back to the front yard.

A servant came out from the main hall, Concubine Shu saw him trotting, and knew that this person was going to invite Mrs. Yongninghou.

With an idea, Concubine Shu stopped the servant.

"When I met Miss Qin, I heard her say that the lily cake in their mansion is delicious," Concubine Shu said with a smile, "You go to Yongninghou's mansion and tell me that Miss Qin is not free today. Let her come to the palace some other day and give me a plate to taste."

After finishing speaking, Concubine Shu took the reward and gave it to him.

You can still get rewards for things with a sentence, and the servant responded with a full mouth, and hurried away.

Concubine Shu watched him leave and pursed her lips tightly.

I hope that the Yongning Hou Mansion can understand her reminder.
