After Gao married the prince, the sick and weak concubine lost her horse

Chapter 23 023 The Reward in the Palace

Compared with the previous dynasties, the descendants of today's saints are really not many.

There are only five princes and one princess.

Among them, the third prince, Sheng Tingye, and the fifth prince, Sheng Tingzhao, were all descendants of the empress.

The queen originally came from the Wang family, the head of the four major families in Daqi.

Coupled with the presence of two princes, the position in the central palace is even more unshakable.

To meet such a person, Shen Qingci would not dare to take it lightly.

The third prince, Sheng Tingye, was originally born with Yushu Zhilan, and Lang Yan is unique.

The proud son of heaven, he became famous at a young age.

Looking at the whole of Daqi, no matter whose family the girl is married to, it is the other party's favorite.

What's more, the Shen family really doesn't have much background.

Before seeing the queen with his own eyes, Shen Qingci already expected that he would not be taken seriously or even ridiculed.

However, she did not expect that after following Steward Zhao to the front hall, the first thing she saw was the smiling and amiable appearance of Nanny Gao, who was in charge beside the queen.

"My servant greets Miss Shen."

Nanny Gao is an old man by the queen's side, and she is highly regarded by the queen. Even if the court officials see her, they will give her a little face.

Shen Qingci did not expect her attitude to be so respectful and friendly.

It is said that the attitude of the subordinate depends on the attitude of the master.

I don't know if it represents the meaning of the queen, or Gao Nanny is just such a person who smiles at everyone.

When meeting for the first time, Shen Qingci didn't dare to make a statement.

But it's always right to be well-behaved, modest and dignified.

She took a step forward, supported Nanny Gao's hand, and said with a smile: "Mommy is an old man next to the empress, this action will ruin me as a junior."

As soon as this remark came out, the smile on Madam Gao's face became softer.

But she still followed the rules and followed the etiquette thoroughly before getting up.

"The girl is the master, how dare the servant overstep."

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Madam Gao explained the purpose of her visit.

"The empress is considerate of the girl's frailty, so she ordered her servants to bring the imperial doctor Zhou to ask for her pulse."

"Your Majesty also said that there are many rules in the palace, and it takes a lot of effort. You don't need to rush into the palace to thank you. The most important thing is to take care of your health first. There will be a banquet in the eighth palace next month, and then it will not be too late to enter the palace with the third highness to thank you."

The eighth day of next month is the Empress Dowager's birthday, as the grandson-in-law-to-be, Shen Qingci should enter the palace to celebrate her birthday.

At that time, she, Sheng Tingye, her cousin Jiang Yuzhi, the second prince Sheng Tingxin, and all the royal families in Beijing or those who are related to the royal family with sufficient status will go to congratulate.

Counting, there are more than half a month.

Thinking of not needing to thank you for the time being, Shen Qingci breathed a sigh of relief.

She is weak now, and her spirit is also very weak, it is really difficult to separate her mind to deal with everything in the palace.

It would be best to give her some time.

Unexpectedly, the queen was so tolerant and considerate.

This is completely different from Shen Qingci's previous guess.

No matter what her purpose was, the result was good for Shen Qingci.

Shen Qingci hurriedly thanked him.

Nanny Gao asked the people below to present the Empress Empress's reward to Shen Qingci for review, and then she called Imperial Physician Zhou to take Shen Qingci's pulse.

After some consultations, Doctor Zhou took up a pen and wrote the prescription.

"Miss Shen must have had deficiencies in her womb. If she lives well, it's fine, but..."

But looking at her extremely frail body, let's not say it is easy to give birth, I am afraid that it will be difficult to eat enough.

However, taking into account the presence of the Shen family and Shen Qingci's current status, Imperial Physician Zhou did not say clearly, but only vaguely said: "You can use this prescription first, and Zhou will do his best."

These imperial doctors are all human beings, afraid of taking responsibility, and always leave a little bit of leeway when they speak.

Shen Qingci was not surprised.

With the prescription given by her father, she didn't expect anyone else.

The old man of the Shen family and Shen Wangqi haven't come down yet.

The second son of the Shen family, Shen Wangxing, and the third son, Shen Wangyun, have always been unscrupulous, either listening to music in the brothel, or hanging out in the flower and bird market, they are always away from home.

Except for those who were sick, those who were on duty, those who were away from home, and those who had something to do...the only ones who rushed to the front hall when they heard someone from the palace were Mrs. Zhou and Mrs. Li from the second bedroom.

After seeing off Nanny Gao and Imperial Physician Zhou, Mrs. Li slumped on the imperial chair, staring at the queen's rewards with piercing eyes.

A jade ruyi, a pair of Facai Linlang cups...

Among them, the two bolts of jacquard brocade are the most eye-catching.

The brocade was already valuable, but the gold thread and filigree in the two bolts of brocade were even more precious.

Such a material is made into clothes, and how radiant it should be when worn on the body.

Li Shi's eyes almost straightened.

Seeing that Mrs. Zhou had no intention of putting these things into storage, Mrs. Li couldn't help but wink at Mrs. Zhou.

Seeing this, Shen Qingci stepped up to the two pieces of jacquard silk brocade, and tilted his head to look at Li Shi: "Second Aunt, how about this material?"

Seeing her such a good attitude and such a question, Li's footsteps were already one step faster than her mouth, walked up to Shen Qingci, and said with a smile on his face: "Of course it's excellent."

Shen Qingci: "Since Second Aunt likes it so much, then..."

Having said that, she paused.

Li Shi's little heart was pounding, and she thought she was a wild girl who grew up in a village in the country. She couldn't see how expensive this material was, so she could give it to her casually.

Li's words of thanks came to his lips.

Unexpectedly, in the next moment, Shen Qingci smiled and said: "Then take a second look."

Li: "..."

She was stunned for a moment before realizing that she was teased by Shen Qingci, and she was so choked that she almost didn't bring it up.

Before she could get angry, Mrs. Zhou got up and said: "This is a reward from the Empress Empress to Ah Ci, and they are all things for the imperial use. How can I give them to anyone casually."

The implication is that she has no knowledge.

Mrs. Li was furious, "Sister-in-law, what you said is wrong. Although it was awarded to Ah Ci, she has not yet left the cabinet, and she is still from the Shen family. Her things belong to the Shen family. Without a family separation, how did you become the 'casual' person in the sister-in-law's mouth?"

Due to Shen Qingci's incident recently, Mrs. Zhou has been described as haggard.

In the past, I was too lazy to learn about Li Shi, but today I am even more impatient.

She narrowed her eyes, and raised her voice unconsciously: "Nurse Gao probably hasn't gone far, should I send someone to stop her and ask whether the Empress is for Ah Ci alone or for the Shen family? ?”

If that's the case, don't say that Li's trouble is shameless, but the whole Shen family will be ashamed.

No matter how confused Li was, she didn't dare continue to challenge her. She patted her sleeves and said angrily, "It's just a little reward, no one seems to have seen it before."

After saying that, she gave Shen Qingci a hard look, turned around and left.

When passing by Shen Qingci's side, she deliberately raised her elbow, as if wanting to elbow Shen Qingci to vent her anger.

Unexpectedly, before she touched the hem of Shen Qingci's clothes, Shen Qingci suddenly fell down.
