Chapter 34

Huayang Palace poisoned a maid to death, and Empress Xu was directly taken to live in Qianqing Palace by the emperor.

This news was even more shocking than the previous ones.

The people in the harem who were watching the queen's jokes couldn't sit still at all.

If the queen is here, there will be a place to speak in the harem after all.

If the queen falls, it's all over for them.

On the tenth day of February, all the concubines went to Jiaofang Palace to pay their respects as a routine.

Unlike the usual jokes and cursing, everyone was listless this time, and one or two were silent.

In the end it was Concubine Meng who spoke.

"Your Majesty, are you feeling better? This concubine has just obtained some prescriptions for nourishing soup, if you don't mind..."

Concubine Meng, who never flattered the queen, is now learning to please her.

"Of course I don't dislike it. If you have time, you can learn a few more things. I will drink them all."

The queen smiled brightly.

"You all too"

"Do whatever you want. Those who like cooking, embroidery, handicrafts, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, don't throw them away, pick them up, and do what you want to do."

This means that they should not stare at the little favor of the emperor.

"Ma'am, are you not feeling bad at all?"

Concubine Zhao, who was promoted to concubine together with Concubine Xu, was crying.

She is the biological mother of the fifth prince, who is seventeen years old and still scolded by the emperor every day, and she was promoted to concubine only after making trouble.

Compared with Concubine Xu, she could hardly lift her head up.

"My palace is the queen. If the sky falls, I will still be there. With me, you will be safe every day. Let's all go."

The concubines looked at each other, their cheeks were hot, especially those who ran the most to Huayang Palace.

"Let's go, I'm tired"

After the meeting, the queen returned to the inner room and drank the excellent Biluochun tea.

"The folks are young couples who come to accompany each other, and the palace is... Forget it, Fang Rui, that's fine."

"I used to say that I stopped thinking about it, but actually I still have expectations."

"Now it's really broken. There is nothing more sad than heartbroken. I'm relieved instead."

Didn't say 'Ben Gong', said 'I'.

Fang Rui handed over the silk handkerchief.

The queen took it and wiped the tea stains from the corners of her lips, and immediately threw it away when she found that it was snow satin.

"No more in the future"

"No matter how precious the snow satin is, this palace is not rare. The difficult days will pass, and we have to endure it for a while."

"Your Majesty, just figure it out, next... who do you want to choose?"

The queen was silent for a while, then suddenly asked a question.

"Is there any news from Li Liangdi?"

"Yes", Fang Rui conveyed the news of Li Liangdi during these days one by one.

"It is said that he has made friends with many ministers secretly, and some officials have accepted bribes. The private treasury is very large and there are many good things."

"This palace has long seen that the second child is dishonest, and Li Liangdi is quite useful." The queen knocked on the panel of the table and chair.

"Where's the sixth?"

"The news about Miss Lin is still looking for flowers and asking willows every day. She was still a little fond of her, but after the new year, she has faded away. She hasn't seen the sixth prince for ten days in a row."

"The errand that the emperor entrusted to the sixth prince to repair the imperial study has also been put on hold. I don't know when it will start."

Fang Rui reported them one by one.

The queen closed her eyes and pondered slowly.

One is the eldest son in name, and the position of crown prince is more legitimate. With her help, this road will be smooth and unimpeded. The disadvantage is that Xie Chenke is difficult to control, and there may be changes in the future.

The so-called sly rabbit and dog cooking have never been empty words.

The other is the child she took care of Youjia since she was a child, but she has not registered her name and cannot be counted as her child.

The road to support him to the top is too difficult, and Xie Chenyu is too disappointing, a well-known royal dude, living a luxurious life, and being romantic and lustful.

In the eyes of the minister, such a person would definitely not be able to sit in the country.

Of course the most important thing is...

"Where is the third child, how is it going?"

The queen began to explore other possibilities.

"The third prince is still studying behind closed doors. Concubine Chen sends people to watch her every day, and occasionally sends some food and drink over."

"Where's the fifth one?"

"The fifth prince is serious about his studies. He is good at riding and shooting, but there is always no way to do things. A few days ago, he went to the imperial study to make a big fuss because of Zhao Concubine. The emperor has issued a strict order to reprimand him."

"do not talk"

The queen covered her head: "I'll think about it again"

-

The news in the palace can never be hidden.

As soon as the news of Xu's move into Qianqing Palace came out, there was movement in every prince's mansion.

The second prince is gearing up to enter the palace to pay his respects.

The third prince began to worry about what to do with his mother and concubine when the queen lost her temper?
The fifth prince wanted to go to the imperial study to quarrel again, but his father strictly ordered him not to come close.

The sixth prince...

No, Xie Chenyu didn't change anything, he was painting right now.

The painting is a beauty in white.

Half of the thick black hair was rolled up and half hung down on the shoulders, blown into an arc by the breeze.

The long white dress has no patterns, and there are no accessories on the whole body, only a drop-shaped suet white jade hangs on the chest.

She has delicate eyebrows and lovely eyes, and she is smiling slightly as she looks at the picture, her eyes are as gentle as spring water in March and April.

After finishing drawing one stroke at a time, Xie Chenyu held up the scroll and dried the ink with satisfaction.

"After ten years, the main hall has finally been painted."

"Who did your Highness paint?" asked one of the talented scholars who claimed to be good at painting.

"In ancient times, there was "Fu of Luoshen", and later there was "Picture of Fu of Luoshen". The person depicted in the painting in this hall is Luoshen"

Before the words fell, the study burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, is Your Highness joking? This is Luoshen? How could this be Luoshen?"

"That's right, Luoshen is clearly wearing colorful clothes and walking on Luoshui. How does this woman look like she came out of the water?"

"Your Highness, please stop joking. Although Xiaosheng is not talented, he has never seen such a picture of Luoshen before."

Merry and talented scholars, you retort with a smile and a rebuttal, bohemian.

Xie Chenyu was not annoyed either, after they finished laughing, he was still admiring the woman in the painting with satisfaction.

"Have you ever seen Luoshen?"

"The so-called Luoshen is just a legend, no one has ever seen it, and it's just someone's imagination."

"This palace imagines Luoshen to look like this, do you believe it or not?"

There was another burst of laughter in the study.

Suddenly Zhao Hai came in hurriedly to spread the word, to the effect that Xu's family was poisoned, and the emperor specially received the Qianqing Palace to raise the fetus.

After a moment of stiffness, Xie Chenyu quickly returned to normal, laughing and scolding Zhao Hai.

"What are you doing? Ruyifang's beauty hall has long been tired of playing, and I won't go back this time."

Zhao Hai bowed his body shyly.

"Yes, I know I was wrong, next time I won't dare to bother you any more."

"It's good to know, get out, if there is such a bad thing, the temple will interrupt your dog legs."

Zhao Hai slipped away.

After the room fell silent, someone made fun of it.

"Sure enough, His Highness has Luoshen, so he can't look down on the girl from Ruyifang."

"Since His Highness won't go, I'm going to find poetry and meet friends later."

"Go, go, my hall has been so annoying recently that I'm going to go out for a walk, so I won't see you off."

Xie Chenyu sent a group of flirtatious talents away in person like an ordinary family's sons and friends.

The moment the mansion door was closed and he turned around, his smiling eyes suddenly burst with cold light.

Zhao Hai took a look and knelt on the ground directly.

"Grandpa, what should we do?"

Xie Chenyu thought about it, then strode back to the study.

Carefully rolled up the picture of 'Luo Shen', he sat on the Taishi chair and closed his eyes to meditate.

"Zhao Hai, prepare the horse, the palace is going out of the city"
