Fengming Chen Palace

Chapter 499
The couple talked until very late before finally falling asleep. The result of going to bed late is that when they need to get up early the next day, it will be very painful.

Su Qingning was in a drowsy state until the tidying up was done. Seeing her like this, Madam Chen felt a little helpless.

It was already very late yesterday when I rested because of keeping the year old. Mother Chen reckoned that there should be nothing between the emperor and the master.

What's more, she asked when she got up early, and she didn't ask for hot water yesterday, which means that nothing happened, why did she wake up in the morning and feel so listless?

"Master didn't sleep well last night?" He couldn't help but ask Su Qingning.

"I slept well, but it was too late. I didn't feel sleepy when I lay down, so I chatted with the emperor. When I felt sleepy, it would be dawn soon." Hearing Chen Nanny's question, Su Qingning said with a wry smile.

"So that's how it is, this old slave thought..." Although Nanny Chen didn't say what she meant, Su Qingning could guess what she meant. She blushed and looked at Nanny Chen.

"Where is Mammy thinking, how could it be so absurd?" She went to bed late enough, but she still made a fuss, wouldn't she be laughed at.

"Yes, yes, the old slave is wrong. The emperor and the master are not absurd, not at all absurd." As soon as these words came out, Su Qingning felt even more embarrassed, even though she and the emperor had three children, the absurd thing, In fact, there is no less to do.

I had a cold before, and because the two were in the small pavilion near the lotus pond, the wind blew and I was sick for several days.

"Master, it's almost time, let's go?" Seeing that her expression was better, Nanny Chen stopped and changed the subject.

Su Qingning responded, and walked towards the outer room together with her.

When it was ready, Jishun ordered that, as in previous years, the royal clan and court wives would enter the hall to worship.

Last year, Su Qingning kept Yueling in the palace, and invited Su Shi into the palace. This year, she had other plans, so she didn't keep Yueling after the invitation.

Today is the first day of the new year, the brothers' birthdays. Last year, Su Qingning and Emperor Chen gave the brothers some gadgets. This year, the couple plans to take the children for a tour outside the palace.

On the first day of the new year, although many shops are closed, the streets are still very lively because of the Chinese New Year.

Although the two brothers are still young, it is precisely because they are young that they should see the outside world more.

The eldest princess was taken to Fengyang Palace, and she was going to follow her out of the palace. Only the little princess was handed over to Concubine Hui, and she was asked to help take it with her.

The little princess is still too young, even if she is taken out, she won't know anything, and it's still cold outside, so it's not suitable for her to go out.

Although the little princess cried for a while because of this, Concubine Hui had her own way to attract her attention away. When she wanted to cry again, the empress had already left the palace with the three children.

The carriage was very big, and the empress and the three children didn't feel crowded in it.

The inside of the carriage is very warm, Su Qingning is afraid of the cold, this carriage is specially prepared for her.

Leaving from the palace, heading towards the street, you can hear it from the carriage, the street seems to be very lively.

"Let's get out of the car and take a walk. Let the carriage stop at Shen's Mansion. After we finish our tour, we will have dinner at Shen's Mansion in the evening." Looking at Su Qingning, the Emperor Chen said, she naturally had no objection.

The carriage stopped at a side, and the family got out of the carriage. After giving an order, the driver drove the carriage towards Shen's house.

The street is very lively, every Chinese New Year, it will be like this, although the shops are less open, but there are quite a few jugglers, they will choose this time to come out.

The three siblings walked in front, and Emperor Chen and Su Qingning followed slowly behind. Seeing something strange, the three siblings approached, and the two followed. They thought it was good, so they rewarded them with more money. If they didn't feel good , will also give out the reward silver according to the normal proportion.

Before leaving the palace, Su Qingning specially ordered people to exchange some scattered silver taels, otherwise, everything would be a large ingot of silver, and it would be easy for people to target them.

Although I'm not afraid, but it's Chinese New Year, and the couple don't want to get into such trouble.

They stopped and went, bought a lot of things along the way, the three siblings had a great time, even though they were tired from walking later, they were not hugged by anyone.

This is the rule established by Emperor Chen before leaving the palace. If you want to go out to play, you can. Even if you are tired from walking, you must insist on walking by yourself, and you cannot let the palace people or nurses hug you.

For the three brothers and sisters who were finally able to go out of the palace once, this was not a difficult request, and the three of them happily complied. Therefore, no matter how tiring they are walking now, they will persist.

Su Qingning was a little surprised that the children were like this. She never thought that the children could do this.

I thought they would agree well, but when the time came, they began to cheat.

"Since I have said it, I will naturally do it. This is the royal family." The performance of the three children made the emperor very satisfied. He has already selected a place and is going to take the three siblings to rest for a while.

It's one thing to say it with words, but another thing to do it with words. Of course, Emperor Chen will feel sorry for his own child.

I found a teahouse, sat and rested for a while, and listened to a storyteller. The three siblings seemed very interested in the story told by the storyteller, and they all wanted to know the follow-up.

"If you want to hear the follow-up, after you return to the palace, you can ask someone to find out this story and tell it to you at that time. After listening to the story, you have to tell me what you heard from the story."

It's a coincidence that the story told in the teahouse is a short story with truth, which Emperor Chen had heard when he was young.

He looked at the three children and said with a smile. Although they are still young and have not been enlightened, they have some truths. They don't have to be enlightened before they can learn.

Interested in the story, the three siblings readily agreed. Su Qingning followed the emperor, feeling a little surprised. Unexpectedly, the emperor was quite good at educating children.

After shopping around for a while, and buying some things, the empress took the three children and went to Shen's residence.

In the Shen residence, the news had already been received, and the servants in the residence were busy preparing for the arrival of the empress.

Even though they had met the emperor more than once, the Shen family couple was still a little nervous. After hearing the servant's report, the couple hurriedly took people out to greet them.

Seeing that everyone wanted to salute, Emperor Chen stopped him. Today is a tour in micro-clothes, so there is no need for so many salutes.

Instructing people to hand over some of the things they bought on the way to the servants of Shen's mansion, the emperor looked at the eldest princess and the two brothers, this is also a kind of teaching.

The three brothers and sisters could see that they were serious. As for how much they understood, only they knew.

After entering the room, everyone sat down separately. Although Shen Yue was still young, Shen Xu was already able to play with others. Su Qingning explained a few words, and the children left the room to play outside.
