Medical incense

The whole family went to the Nursing Home for the New Year's Eve dinner, and even Shen Zhongxin couldn't wait to put down his chopsticks and followed everyone to Haoranju.

The little maid had already lit up the ice lamps, and in the corridor in front of Haoranju’s door, a row of more than [-] bright red watermelon lanterns were also lit. The courtyard was brightly lit, colorful, like the neon lights in the sky, and like flowers in the bustling night sky. A star, bright and dazzling.

The crowd cheered as soon as they entered the courtyard.

Regardless of going into the house to change clothes, the three children were the first to rejoice, rushing to circle the ice lantern.

"Let Second Uncle bring the firecrackers here, let's set them up here!" Jian Wu and Jian Wen looked at Shen Zhongqing and discussed.

Seeing his son's longing face, Shen Zhongqing hesitated for a while.

Boys like firecrackers, and once the new year is over, they are eager to buy them.

Worried that being in Haoranju would affect Zhen Shiniang's rest, he arranged for Shen Zhongxin in advance to take it back to the Xiaoyao Pavilion, and planned to let him lead Jianwu and Jianwen to release it there on New Year's Eve.

"Okay." Shen Zhongqing was hesitating, Zhen Shiniang had already told Dong Ju, "Go to Xiaoyao Pavilion and bring all the firecrackers." Then she turned around and asked Qiu Ju to arrange a few smart people to watch, "Be careful and let the fireworks go away water."

"You are not in good health..." Shen Zhongqing stopped her.

"It's like eating dumplings outside, and I can't sleep even if I want to rest." Zhen Shiniang smiled and pointed outside, "I have slept enough in the afternoon, and I am not sleepy now, so let the children play here if they are happy. "It's not in Wutong Town, where most of the poor are. It's a luxury to buy a whip for the New Year. There are as many wealthy households in Shangjing, and they have been setting off firecrackers one after another since the end of the Xu Dynasty.Wave after wave, one after another, continuous.

Seeing that Zhen Shiniang stepped forward with Jian Wu like a child and tapped a second kicker with a longer fuze, then pulled Jian Wu to run to him, hugging his shoulders and covering his ears, giggling.

Shen Zhongqing's nose was sore for a while.

She is not naturally quiet, she also likes and longs for such excitement.

I don't know how long their happy days will last.

Fragments of firecrackers fell on the crystal clear ice lamp, which was reflected by the candlelight inside, making it look like a bloodthirsty sunset.It was extraordinarily dazzling, Jian Wen became energetic when he saw it, and simply ordered the little maid to find some colorful silk ribbons and stick them on different positions of the ice lantern. In an instant, all kinds of flowers bloomed in the garden, making people dazzled.Zhen Shiniang always regrets not having a camera to capture this moment.

"...that pair of peaches is too ugly, please put this one on." Jian Wu wrapped a piece of red silk on the "Lotus Throne" ice lamp he carved himself, very dissatisfied that his work was placed in a dark corner , Zhang Luo wanted to change the position with the "peach" carved with two stacked ones in the middle of the garden.

He carved that lamp for Zhen Shiniang!

Seeing that his precious son said that the lamp he carved was ugly, Shen Zhongqing's face flushed, "...Your mother likes that. Just put it there!" Shen Zhongqing said, pointing to a lily lamp carved by Shen Zhongxin in front of him. .If you think it's too far away, you can change it with your second uncle, the lily lamp.

Jian Wu was about to have the two "peaches" removed, but he stopped when he heard that his mother liked them.

Seeing that everyone was twittering and tying ribbons on the lamp, and no one was paying attention, Shen Zhongqing pressed Zhen Shiniang's ear and asked, "Why do you like it so..." Forcibly suppressing the word ugly. "... boring stuff?"

During the day, the little maid took the picture and he carved it, and he didn't feel much at the time.It was burned at this moment, and compared with all kinds of delicate and beautiful flowers and birds that everyone painstakingly carved, it is a bit...that.

dull?

Zhen Shiniang was astonished.

This is Cupid's Arrow of Cupid, isn't it? The arrow of Cupid tightly connects two crystal hearts. How meaningful and romantic is it?

This guy doesn't understand style at all!

Also a little tired, Zhen Shiniang stepped into the house.

Are you angry?

Looking at Zhen Shiniang's back, Shen Zhongqing looked back at the ice lantern.

Simple and bright, simple and generous, it seems that it is not ugly...it really has some charm.

Smiling and shaking his head at Zhen Shiniang's back, Shen Zhongqing followed her into the room.

The first day of the first lunar month is the Dachaohui.

Although he holds a lot of power, Shen Zhongqing's rank is low after all. A military officer of the second rank is much worse than those nobles from aristocratic families. According to this rank and identity, Zhen Shiniang can only follow behind those princes and wives to become the queen mother. However, she was deeply loved by the Empress Dowager, and as soon as she entered the palace, she was declared into the Palace of Compassion and Ning under the envious eyes of all the wives.

The concubines headed by Concubine Zheng had already gathered in the Empress Dowager's Palace of Compassion.

Concubine Zheng was wearing a court gown with a bright red phoenix embroidered phoenix inlaid with golden silk. She was sitting on the lower left hand of the Empress Dowager.

No wonder Wan Sui insisted on making her the empress, but she was able to overwhelm Qunfang's generosity and composure even though she was on the brink of extinction. She really deserved the position of empress.

People can't see anything in good times, but they can see their true colors best in adversity.

In an instant, Zhen Shiniang's impression of Concubine Zheng changed a lot. When she raised her head, she met a thoughtful and inexplicable gaze cast by her, and her heart couldn't help being slightly shocked.

She still cares about me!

Is it suspected that the rumors outside are caused by the Shen family... Or is it because Jian Wu and Jian Wen smashed the thing about Zheng's evildoers?

Zhen Shiniang sighed softly in her heart, "I won't kill Boren, Boren will die because of me." If she can't be queen because of this, the relationship between the Zheng family and the Shen family will be completely forged!

Seeing Concubine Zheng's eyes flashing a smile, Zhen Shiniang bowed down to her body in a graceful manner, and after paying her respects, she turned her gaze to Concubine Shen who was standing under Concubine Zheng, and Concubine Shen had already returned. The head chatted with the little maid.

Instead, the Empress Dowager, who was standing on the right lower head of the Empress Dowager, warmly greeted her, "...I can't believe that the famous Darentang was also prescribed by Mrs. Shen. Your pills are really unparalleled in the world!" sighed regretfully. , "...with such a high prestige, why didn't Madam Shen use her own name?" The tone was enthusiastic and adoring, with a pair of thin red lips, doing everything in the world to the best of her abilities.

There was a sudden silence in the hall.

Although this is a compliment, it is too sensitive.

Now the whole court is guessing that the Shen family and the Zheng family have already torn their skins to face each other in order to compete for the post. The Zheng family first exposed the fact that Shen Zhongqing's subordinates were secretly hoarding grain in the northwest, and they missed it. The fake medicine incident of Darentang was also revealed. Now the parties involved have been silenced. No one knows whether Zhen Shiniang participated in the manufacture of fake medicines. All they know is that this incident finally came to an end...

On the other hand, the Shen family threw out the rumor that the Zheng family had evildoers in a fit of anger.

So far, these two important figures in the harem have officially met.

In the end it will be the winner, but there will be fun to watch.

Concubine Zheng Gui and Zhen Shiniang could stand here peacefully and greet each other with smiles, but everyone was just careful to maintain the last trace of decency.

The words of Empress Defei undoubtedly brought this sensitive topic that everyone was extremely curious about but had to avoid as much as possible. For a moment, all eyes in the palace were focused on Concubine Zheng and Zhen Shiniang.

The Queen Mother frowned slightly.

Concubine Zheng always had a faint smile on her face, looking at Zhen Shiniang gracefully.

Suddenly not aware of the tense atmosphere in the hall, Zhen Shiniang smiled calmly, "It's the same with my son's name." Darentang has used Jian Wen's name since its opening, and seeing Concubine De want to speak, she The subject changed, "At that time, even the imperial physician Wen said that my body would not last for a year or two at most, and I was afraid that Darentang would have to go through the procedures again, which would be too troublesome."

Die and live on the first day of the new year, don't be afraid of bad luck!

Concubine De opened her mouth for a long time, unable to speak.

Zhen Shiniang looked at Concubine Yu, "How is the Eighth Princess?"

"Uh, good, good." When she regained her senses, Concubine Yu nodded again and again, "I know Mrs. Shen will enter the palace today, and the eighth princess has always said that she will come to give you a big gift." There can be no exceptions, "Long live is afraid that she will catch the cold before the incision is healed, so she is forced to be confined to Yonghua Palace." He took out an exquisitely crafted safety talisman from the armhole and handed it to Zhen Shiniang, "I heard that Mrs. Shen You are not in good health, and when the eighth princess went to Daci Temple to fulfill your vows, she personally asked you for a peace talisman, wishing you a long life."

Zhen Shiniang took it with a smile, "The eighth princess is interested, please thank her on behalf of the courtiers."

He chatted enthusiastically with Yu Pin and others about something else.

The eerie atmosphere stirred up by Concubine De just disappeared in the hall.

"Shi Niang, come and sit." Seeing that Zhen Shiniang had finished meeting with everyone, the Empress Dowager beckoned Zhen Shiniang to pass.

Long ago, a little court lady moved an embroidered pier and placed it beside the queen mother.

The queen mother personally pulled her to sit down.

Everyone's expressions changed.

They, except Concubine Zheng and a few princesses, are all standing still!

"...The Chinese New Year is going well. I heard that your cooking skills are very good. What kind of New Year's Eve dinner did you cook?" The queen mother took Zhen Shiniang's hand and talked about homework.

Zhen Shiniang smiled back one by one.

"Mrs. Shen has superb medical skills and is highly respected among the people." Just as she was talking and laughing, Princess Changning who had been sitting upright said suddenly, "Tell me, are there really evildoers in this world?"

The voice was shrill and high-pitched, and the hall was silent for a moment.

Zhen Shiniang was also taken aback.

This question is not easy to answer.

If there is, the grievances between the Shen family and the Zheng family will be completely settled. In the future, once the fifth prince ascends to power, the Shen family will be ransacked overnight!

But if she said no, how could she feel that apart from Concubine Zheng, other people in this hall could tear her to pieces with just a bunch of sharp gazes?

These concubines look inconspicuous, but their family backgrounds should not be underestimated. Who knows how many people here are thinking about their successors. The Zheng family and the Shen family have already torn their faces. If you can't please, you will be grandstanding instead.

Now there are rumors all over the sky outside, although Long Live prefers it, but now whether Concubine Zheng can take the position is still in doubt, she doesn't want to offend everyone else in the hall with a single word, and be used as a gun for no reason.

From the corner of her eye, she saw a sharp light flashing in Concubine Zheng's eyes, she was looking at her aggressively, and Zhen Shiniang broke out in cold sweat... (To be continued.
