Queen's scheming

Chapter 34

As Shen Qingyi got off the sedan chair, Duke Feng and all his family knelt down to pay his respects.

Shen Qingyi moved her lotus feet lightly, looked at the dense crowd of people kneeling on the bluestone bricks, and then looked at the vermilion lacquered gate behind these people, the golden nanmu plaque, Fengguo Gongfu?One day, you will cease to exist.

"Let's get up." With a standard royal friendly smile, Shen Qingyi left her father Feng Guogong and stepmother Shen Yeshi, walked straight in front of Shen Muhao, took his hand and stood up.

If it is said that Shen Qingyi still has any nostalgia for this Duke Feng's mansion, then only Shen Muhao is left.Shen Muhao was the same age as Shen Qingwan, and was Shen Qingyi's direct younger brother.

Shen Qingyi looked at Shen Muhao up and down for a long while, the purple gold crown, the round-neck crotchless gown with strands of gold silk Shu brocade, the rhinoceros leather belt inlaid with various jewels, the suet white jade ring-shaped jade pendant, the whole is a small mobile treasury.Shen Ye's created a piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, Shen Qingyi who knows nothing about knitting and red, but also a spoiled playboy full of gold and silver?Shen Qingyi glared at Shen Yeshi, without saying a word, she pulled Shen Muhao to the house.

Because the time to leave the palace was late, it was time to have lunch when we arrived at Duke Feng's mansion.The Shen family prepared several tables and tables, and Shen Qingyi sat alone, separated from the seats in the outer hall by snow-colored gauze curtains and pink bead curtains, and only the shadows of people could be seen outside.Immediate relatives such as Duke Feng and Shen Ye set up banquets in the outer hall, while other collateral relatives set up seats outside the hall.

Shen Qingyi waved and led Shen Muhao into the inner hall, and the two shared the table.Both Feng Guogong and Shen Yeshi knew that it was against the rules, but they dared not say anything more.Shen Qingyi is now Emperor Li Tianyou's favorite person, even if they had the guts to confront Qing Yi head-on.

Turning to the back hall, Shen Muhao's eyes rolled a few times, and the voice held back just now disappeared instantly. He grabbed Shen Qingyi's hand and said affectionately, "Sister Qingyi, I haven't seen you for a long time. I heard that the emperor rewarded you ten times." A bow and arrow that can be cut first and played later, can you give me a bow and arrow, okay?" Shen Muhao shook Shen Qingyi's hand a few times, and said coquettishly.In today's world, apart from the empress dowager and the emperor, the only one who dares to call Qing Yi by her boudoir name is Shen Muhao.

Shen Qingyi gave him an annoyed look with a smile, "Sit down and eat first, even if you eat, you won't be able to stop your mouth. How can the imperial gift be given to you casually?"

"There's nothing wrong with it. Sister Qing Yi gave me a lot in the first place. When I said no, didn't Sister Qing Yi say that what's yours is mine? Why didn't it happen now?" Shen Muhao said dissatisfied.

Shen Qingyi was silent, because he used to be careless and did many wrong things, "Then tell me, what do you want that bow and arrow for? Don't say that you want to ride and shoot. You have hated horses since you were young." It’s so coaxing, I don’t even want to enter the racecourse.”

"I..." Shen Muhao secretly glanced at Feng Guogong and Shen Yeshi who were outside the curtain, making sure that they could not hear their conversation, and then said, "Sister Qing Yi, let me tell you, don't you tell Dad and Madam "When Shen Luoshi passed away, although Shen Muhao was young and ignorant, he refused to call Shen Yeshi his mother, and he still calls him his wife to this day.

"In these years, when did I tell them about you, you just said it." Shen Qingyi's heart tightened slightly, what Shen Muhao was going to do was behind Feng Guogong and Shen Yeshi's back.

Shen Muhao hesitated for a while, and finally said shyly, "I have fallen in love with a girl, and I want to give it to her."

Shen Qingyi raised her eyebrows, "Which family is the girl from? She asked you for this? You are only thirteen this year. Could it be that Madam has started seeing girls for you now?" Shen Qingyi asked repeatedly.

Shen Muhao quickly waved his hand, "It's not what she wants, if she wants it, it's fine. She is a lady from Luoyang Houfu. I met her at my aunt's house. I like her, but she doesn't like me, so I want to use Give her the bow and arrow."

"If you give her a bow and arrow, she will like you, right?" Shen Qingyi was slightly relieved, the girl she met in Zhongyonghou's mansion must be right, "Take my belongings and borrow flowers to present to Buddha, thank you for thinking." come out?"

Shen Muhao touched his head and giggled.Shen Qingyi gave him a squinting look, "I met her once and thought she was beautiful, so I said I liked her. You know her temperament, but is it an embroidered pillow?"

"Sister Qing Yi, I'm not a child anymore, okay? In terms of beauty, no one can compare to Sister Qing Yi. Her beauty is not even as good as the two maids around me. I don't think she is beautiful, it's just... just a feeling , I just want... I just want to see her every day. I won't say it, anyway, I just want to marry her." Shen Muhao couldn't express clearly, and started playing tricks.

"Okay, okay, I'll go back to the palace and ask you, don't act rashly, okay, you have to ask clearly, see if he is married, do you want to marry into our Duke's mansion?" Shen Qingyi really took this younger brother Nothing.

"She is definitely not married, even if she is married, I will snatch it; any young lady in the capital does not want to marry into our Duke's mansion, if she refuses to do so, she will." Shen Muhao said regardless, in short He just decided.

Shen Qingyi sighed, "There is no such thing as you. You didn't say that people don't like you, so why would you want to marry you? Don't say you use the brand of the Duke's Mansion to suppress others. You eat and drink all day long. Nothing to do, why should a good girl marry you? You are the son of the Duke's mansion, you must not forget, there are other three princes and young masters in the Duke's mansion, if the girl The conditions are good, why can't I marry into another mansion."

"Then, then I will go to fight with my uncle, and when I come back from the war, I will have military merits, so I won't be doing nothing." Shen Muhao said impulsively.Shen Qingyi persuaded him many times, asking him to leave the Duke's Mansion and venture out on his own.Shen Qingyi always hopes that Shen Muhao can do something that a woman can't do.

"Okay, it's hard to chase after a man's words. Sister Qing Yi will promise you today, and I will give you three years. If you can make a difference in three years, Miss Luoyang Marquis, I will make an appointment for you. Even if she has a childhood sweetheart, Sister Qing Yi will snatch it for you to be your wife." The lady of the Luoyang Marquis Mansion is indeed a good one, and I heard the Empress Dowager mention that anyone who wants to bring Li Tianyou into the palace must be unmarried, Luoyang The Hou Mansion did not dare to make promises to others at will, and it was a surprise to have this woman who could stimulate Shen Muhao to work hard.

"Sister Qing Yi, this statement is serious!" Shen Muhao widened his eyes, waiting for Shen Qingyi's answer.

"Of course it's true. Your sister Qing Yi is the queen, and everything you say is Yizhi, you can't lie." Shen Qingyi patted Shen Muhao's head affectionately.

"That's great, sister Qing Yi, you eat first, I'll go find my uncle, and when he goes out next time, I'll be with him." Before Shen Muhao finished speaking, he rushed out.

Shen Qingyi looked at Shen Muhao's cheerful back, the smile on his face gradually disappeared, and said coldly, "Yu Lian, go and bring the two maidservants from the young master's room, and reward them with five pieces of vegetarian food for each of them. When I went to my father's room, I said that my palace was in charge, and that I was considerate of my father's hard work, so I made him a concubine."
