After retiring, I saved the crazy prince

Chapter 18
Shen Sanniang walked out timidly, she covered the front with her hands, the skirt of this dress was very low, as if the spring would leak out at any moment, the front was blocked, but her arms were still exposed.

The clothes that her aunt prepared for her were like pieces of fabric, they only covered the key parts, and they couldn't be worn out at all. At this moment, she looked embarrassed and embarrassed.

Her upbringing told her that her attire was not dignified, like a brothel girl who was soliciting guests outside Zuixianfang, and her behavior at this time was like the third concubine in the mansion vying for favor.

Standing outside the hall, she began to retreat in her heart.

Wei Young urged from the side: "My lady, don't be afraid, you have your own lady to support you, don't you want my lady to be loved by His Highness the Crown Prince?
She gritted her teeth, and then mustered up the courage to go in.

The moment she walked into the hall, a beautiful and melodious piano sound came, she had no choice but to step forward and stand in the center of the hall to dance, but because she was wearing this dress, she couldn't let go of her hands and feet at all. The dancing posture also looked a little stiff and clumsy, and she couldn't even keep up with the rhythm of the piano sound.

She felt terrible about this dance, and every movement turned into a kind of torment and torture. Although Wei Xuan still had the same smiling face, his eyes wandered away, and he didn't even look at her from the beginning to the end. After the song, Shen Sanniang finished the last movement with difficulty, covered her face, and ran out crying.

She is like a clown, trying her best to make a good impression in front of the prince, but Wei Xuan always turns a blind eye to her.

And she was even more dissatisfied with her performance, she could obviously dance better, why she couldn't do anything well in front of him.

Wei Young wanted to chase her out to persuade her, but was stopped by Empress Shen, "Let her go, just figure it out."

The daughter of the Shen family was never a coward, and marrying into the East Palace was only the first step. To win the heart of her husband, this was something she had to learn all her life.

It is impossible for the crown prince to be alone with the crown princess, and the emperor is even cold in nature. The position of empress is destined to be lonely and lonely, and she will understand in the future.

Wei Xuan deliberately asked: "What's wrong with my cousin? Do I need to send someone to find her?"

Empress Shen's complexion changed instantly, "No need, let her go. Now that the Crown Princess has been settled, I will ask His Majesty to marry you, but the East Palace is still too deserted, you have Concubine Liang and Lady Liang in your heart the candidate?"

"My son is worried that Zhiluo Palace and Cheng'en Palace will not be reconciled. My son suggested holding a flower viewing feast in Shen's mansion in two days. The queen mother will personally invite all the famous ladies and young talents in Chang'an City to the banquet. People from Luo Palace and Cheng En Palace will definitely not let go of this opportunity, and I will choose one or two suitable ones from among them. Concubine Liu Shu and Li Zhaoyi will not stop Lady Shen from entering the East Palace when they see that their people have been sent to the East Palace After all, they also know that they can't compete with the queen mother at all."

Empress Shen was quite satisfied with his proposal, and her ugly face finally eased a bit, "Does Xuan'er have someone he likes?"

He didn't expect Empress Shen to ask such a question suddenly, Jiuzhu's face appeared in his mind, that delicate face had not yet faded away from the girl's greenness, it was slightly round, but it was bright and charming.

There is a person hidden in his heart, and he has hidden it for more than ten years.

It's just that the time has not come, and he can't say it yet.

But soon they will meet, and the position of his princess will only be reserved for her.

He didn't answer Empress Shen's words directly, but said with a faint smile: "My son will definitely put the country and the country as the most important thing. The queen mother can rest assured that my son knows how to measure."

His words and deeds are almost impeccable. It doesn't really matter who he pretends to be in his heart. Only the position of Crown Princess belongs to the Shen family, so she will not control it too much.

But these years, she has never seen his heart clearly, and repeatedly tested him, but he is always so leak-tight, unable to find the slightest fault.

But now he still needs to rely on her and the Shen family. He is a smart person and he knows how to choose which is best for him.

It took her a year to find out about the incident 19 years ago. Wei Xuan hid a slender needle in the saddle of King Liang's horse. When the horse was running, the needle pierced into its At the tip of the nose, the horse went crazy and threw King Liang off the horse. King Liang broke his leg and never touched the horse again for a whole year.

As for King Jin, the obscene song is naturally also Wei Xuan's masterpiece. He put the silk handkerchief in King Jin's lapel while others were not prepared. After King Jin finished writing the poem, he triumphantly took the poem Showing it to Emperor Yuanjia, the obscene song fell out at the right time. Emperor Yuanjia was furious, and punished Jin Wang's mother and son for half a year. They still do not wait to see Jin Wang.

He was only six years old that year, and in order to be selected to stay in Fengyi Palace, he did not hesitate to frame his own brother, which can be described as vicious means.

She didn't believe that he was as gentle and submissive as he appeared on the surface.

But he backed down everywhere, never dared to disobey her, and obeyed her words. The biological mothers of King Liang and King Jin were well-loved and would definitely be as obedient as he was. One year later, she found out the truth of the year and chose In order to hide it for him, he killed the groom who fed the horse for him.

"I promise you."

Empress Shen knew that instead of letting Concubine Liu Shu fight against her everywhere and prevent the prince from marrying the Shen family, it is better to arrange Concubine Liu Shu and Li Zhaoyi's people into the East Palace. These few nails.

Empress Shen leaned on the bed, closed her eyes for a nap, waved her hands and said, "I'm a little tired today. Xuan'er should also step back."

After kowtowing, Wei Xuan bowed and retreated: "The minister there will not disturb the queen's rest, and the minister will come back tomorrow to pay her respects to the queen."

After Wei Xuan retreated, Wei Young stood aside and looked at the departing prince with a smile, "His Royal Highness is really filial, no matter how busy he is, he always comes to Fengyi Palace every morning and evening to pay his respects, it seems that the empress did not choose the wrong person back then. .”

Empress Shen opened her eyes and looked at Wei Young, "He has deep thoughts, even I can't see what plan is hidden in his heart, I always think he is a tiger, but hides his sharp claws and teeth, pretending to be a tiger. The most docile cat. Wait for the moment when its wings are full, and then deliver a fatal blow."

"Your Majesty, did you find anything unusual about His Royal Highness the Prince?"

Empress Shen shook her head, he hid it too well, even today she forced him to marry Shen Su'e, even though he didn't want to, but he still held back like this, there was no emotion on his face from the beginning to the end The change.

Wei Young persuaded from the side: "Your Majesty, worry too much. Your Highness's filial piety towards your Majesty has been seen by your slaves and servants all these years. Your Highness cares about the mother-child relationship with your Majesty, so naturally you will not disobey your Majesty. Don't think too much about your Majesty, night It's getting late, why don't the servants wait for the empress to sleep?"

Empress Shen seemed to remember something again, and asked again: "Is there any news from Qin Zhong in the past few days?"

Wei Young nodded, Qin Zhong was Empress Shen's eyeliner in the East Palace, and the eunuch who served Wei Xuan personally, he was quite trusted by the prince, and had already become the chief eunuch of the East Palace.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, every servant dare not miss the news delivered by Eunuch Qin, and there is nothing unusual about the East Palace.

I hope that as Wei Young said, it's just that she was thinking too much. Fortunately, as long as the prince nods, the matter of Shen Su'e's entry into the East Palace will be settled.
