The cold noodle emperor and the pretty princess

Concubine Hui has always been weak.Back then, Chu Shen was born less than a month old, not long after he was born, because he didn't cry, make trouble, or drink milk, so he was once thought to die prematurely.If it wasn't for the nanny Zhou's use of local methods to save him, Concubine Hui would have gone with her child early in the morning.Concubine Hui has no milk, and Xiao Shen is a very picky baby, no one will drink milk, asking him to drink milk is like killing him, and he was not accepted by the Zhou family after that.

Xiao Shen has a good relationship with the nanny, and the nanny Zhou can be regarded as a single person who ascended to heaven, and everyone in the Zhou family got a half-job in the name of the nanny.This birthday of the Zhou family, the emperor brought the imperial concubine and the regent together, which really gave the Zhou family a lot of face. Officials, big and small, stepped on the threshold of the Zhou family to give gifts, and made the Zhou family feel honored and honored. kindness.

The emperor found a clean and secluded wing room in the backyard, and the emperor had a private talk with Mrs. Zhou.

Mrs. Zhou said: "Back then, the late emperor left a piece of jade pendant, half of which was given to you brothers. I don't know if the emperor still remembers it. When the emperor was young, he lost this half piece of jade pendant, and he was reprimanded by Concubine Hui for this matter. One pass."

"I seem to have a little impression."

"I heard Concubine Hui mention it. She said that on the night of dystocia, she kept holding on to the half of the jade pendant until the child was born. Concubine Hui glanced at him in a daze, put the jade pendant on him, and then passed out. When I woke up again, I heard Doctor Zhong say that the little prince had died young. The empress was so sad that she passed out a few times. Later, she became dazed and probably forgot about the jade pendant. When the emperor mentioned it like this, if it was a token, This jade pendant should be the best token."

Mrs. Zhou got up, took out a black wooden box from the cabinet, opened it, took out half a piece of jade pendant and handed it to the emperor, "Your Majesty, it just so happened that I bought it when I saw it at a jade shop when I was visiting the market a few days ago. It just happened to be returned to the original owner. It must have been stolen by some bold servant many years ago, and it was lost to the people."

"Nurse, you really did me a great favor."

Mrs. Zhou smiled gently, "Why did the emperor think of investigating this matter? After so many years, there is no way to investigate."

"Mr. Zhong's death in front of Chengde's gate must have been heard by the nanny."

Zhou Shi nodded, and suddenly said, "Does the emperor think that the little prince didn't die at all?"

"This matter is very important. Before I find out, I hope that the nanny will keep this secret for me."

"Don't worry, your majesty, I won't confide a single word." Zhou's face was serious, and he paused, "Actually, my old body was quite strange back then. At that time, the imperial doctor Zhong used the reason that the mother had dystocia and the fetus was about to die. All the idlers were invited out of the room, and at that time, the doctor Zhong and the midwife were delivering the baby for the empress, and the empress concubine Zhuang was about to give birth next door at that time."

"Concubine Zhuang is next door?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, maybe your Majesty was too young to remember clearly, but I remember very clearly. Concubine Zhuang often came to see Concubine Hui. Not long after Concubine Hui moved, Concubine Zhuang was about to give birth. But At that time, due to lack of manpower, there was no time to invite the imperial physician and midwife, so Concubine Zhuang asked her personal eunuch Eunuch Hai and maid Xiangxue to deliver the baby to her. Afterwards, a lovely little prince was successfully born."

Chu Shen clenched his fists, and the truth could almost surface, just a little bit, just a little bit.He needs to go to the room where the mother and concubine gave birth.

"Thank you, nanny." I benefited a lot today, and it really was a worthwhile trip.

"It's a blessing for me to be able to share the emperor's worries." Mrs. Zhou smiled warmly, and raised her hand to caress the emperor's hand.Over the years, the emperor has cared for and filially treated her like a mother. With a son like this, what else can she ask for in this life.This Zhou family is extremely loyal to the emperor, and it is precisely because she is upright and courageous that she has taught a family of loyalty, and all her descendants are outstanding.From now on, all the members of the Zhou Mansion will be virtuous and loyal ministers that are rare for the emperor, this will be skipped for later.

On the way back, Qin'er felt that the emperor's face was a bit gloomy, so she couldn't help but snuggled into his arms, "Your majesty, you are not happy."

"If there is someone around you who looks good on the outside, but is extremely evil on the inside. You always thought that she was a kind and humble person who followed the rules, but you didn't expect that she would keep playing with you in applause. How would you deal with her?"

"Is that person very close to the emperor?" Qin'er blinked.

Chu Shen sighed helplessly and nodded.

"That depends on what the emperor thinks in his heart. Whether the emperor wants to punish her or let her go, it's all in the emperor's mind. If it's not a big mistake, there is no need to punish him severely. You have to forgive her and let her go." People, might as well accumulate some evil virtues for your emperor."

"But that is an unforgivable crime." He rested his forehead on her forehead and stroked her belly with one hand.

"The emperor has made up his mind, hasn't he?"

The car stopped at Biyun Palace.

Qin'er looked up at the Phoenix Palace, it was the first time she came here.Biyun Palace has been vacant for a long time, but it is repaired once every three years. It is cleaned very clean and organized in an orderly manner.

This is the place where Concubine Hui lived for a long time, and it is also the place where the first emperor stayed 360 days a year.

Chu Shen hugged her and stopped in front of a wing.

When she saw a seal on the door, she was quite surprised, "What is this place, why is there a seal?"

"This was originally my mother's dormitory. My mother had a difficult delivery and gave birth to my royal brother here. My father thought this room was unlucky and almost burned it down. Later, my mother dissuaded me, so I put a seal on it, and my mother started from here. Yuan moved out and went to Nanyuan."

Chu Shen stepped forward to push open the door, and a musty smell rushed into his nostrils.

"You stay at the door." He shook her little hand and walked in to check.

The room was full of cobwebs and dust. Chu Shen pushed open the back window of the room with a little force, and looked out. He saw that the distance from the window next to him was only two feet, and he could deliver the baby back and forth with just a lift of his hand.

Chu Shen sighed.It's true that everything has a definite number in the dark, the father was so smart all his life, he was so confused, and he never doubted the origin of the stillbirth. If he really cared about it, he would be confused. For such a smart person, once the mother's matter is involved, he will be completely confused. , Lost thinking.

Qin'er walked in, clutching her nose, "What are you looking at, Your Majesty?"

"I've finished watching everything I want to see, and I know everything I want to know. Let's go back." He put his arms around her and went out with her.

"Where are you going, my lord?"

"Jinghe Palace." Chu Shen shook her hand.

Qin'er frowned, but said nothing.

Chu Shen went out and said to Duke Ling, "Go and invite the regent to enter the palace, to Jinghe Palace."

"Yes, Your Majesty."
