Fengming Chen Palace

Chapter 88

Seeing the little clothes on Lu Xiurong's body, Su Qingning smiled and thanked her. In the harem, she and Lu Xiurong have a very good relationship now.

Lu Xiurong was grateful for her treatment, so he treated her sincerely. In many things, he thought of Su Qingning.

The relationship between people is mutual, and Lu Xiurong treats her like this, so she naturally thinks about Lu Xiurong.

Sometimes Nanny Chen would feel that the relationship between the two of them is not like concubines in the harem, but like sisters in their own family. There is no calculation, only sincerity, which is really rare in the harem.

Nanny Chen put away her little clothes, and at noon, Lu Xiurong stayed at Yuxiu Palace for dinner.

"By the way, sister, did you hear that Nanchu Kingdom is coming?" Thinking of something, Lu Xiurong looked at Su Qingning and asked.

"Southern Chu Kingdom?" Su Qingning thought for a while, she had heard the emperor mention it before, she nodded, and waited for Lu Xiurong to speak again.

"I heard that this time when the Southern Chu Kingdom came to Beijing, they will give their saintess to the emperor as a concubine. It is said that the saints are all over the country. In the Southern Chu Kingdom, all the saints in the past are to be princesses of."

In the past, Lu Xiurong's status was low, and the news was not well informed, but now that she has become a third-rank concubine, she has personally raised the princess, and the news has gradually become well informed.

The Southern Chu Kingdom is a subsidiary state of Daxing, Xuanyuan Ye can be called the emperor, the king of the Southern Chu Kingdom can only be called the King of Southern Chu, and if the saint becomes a concubine, she is equivalent to the queen of Daxing.

But now, the Southern Chu Kingdom is going to give their princess to the emperor as a concubine. It sounds like something is wrong.

Chen Momo stood aside and frowned after hearing Lu Xiurong's words, but Su Qingning didn't react too much, she didn't know much about Nan Chu Kingdom.

"I really don't know what my sister said. Before, I only heard from the emperor that the Southern Chu Kingdom will come to pay pilgrimage, and I have never heard from the emperor about sending off the saint."

After Lu Xiurong finished speaking, Su Qingning responded, when she heard Lu Xiurong say that the Southern Chu Kingdom was going to send the saint to the emperor, she felt a little depressed.

"I only heard about it yesterday. Before that, it was only said that the country of Nanchu came, but later it was said that the saint girl would be given to the emperor. It is said that it was because the saint girl was a gift from God, that's why the kingdom of South Chu wanted it." Send it to the emperor."

Telling Su Qingning everything he knew, Lu Xiurong looked at her face, "Don't think too much about it, my sister, it's still unknown whether I will send you off or not, you are pregnant now, and the emperor loves you so much, even if there is something The Saintess of Southern Chu will not affect you either."

Worried that Su Qingning would think too much, Lu Xiurong persuaded her, Su Qingning nodded with a smile, the feeling of boredom before was gone.

There is no need to worry about things that are not yet accurate, and the important thing is to have a good pregnancy.

After lunch, Lu Xiurong left Yuxiu Palace. Su Qingning leaned on the soft couch, thinking of what she said before, she asked Nanny Chen, "Does Nanny know about the Southern Chu Kingdom? There are also saintesses?"

"Returning to the master, I have heard a little bit about it. The Southern Chu Kingdom is a subsidiary country of our Daxing, and it will come to worship almost every few years. In the past, when I came to Daxing, I brought all the specialties of the Southern Chu. As a gift to the saint, It’s the first time I’ve heard of it.”

"Southern Chu Kingdom advocates witchcraft. Their saintesses are selected from many children. It is said that they are the most sensitive to heaven. Generally speaking, saintesses will marry the king of Nanchu, so this sending of saintesses Not necessarily true."

Worried that Su Qingning's mood would be affected by this, Mother Chen specially added a sentence to appease Su Qingning.

After listening to Mother Chen finish speaking, Su Qingning nodded. Although she felt uncomfortable for a moment just now, she has adjusted herself now.

Unless the emperor himself said that he wanted to accept the saintess of Nanchu Kingdom, otherwise, she would just listen and pass.

In fact, even if the emperor really wants to accept the harem, it is normal. Which of the ancient emperors did not belong to the Sangong and Six Courts?

The current emperor's harem is already small enough. Judging from the previous life of the original owner, it seems that there will be a draft after one year.

Su Qingning couldn't tell how she felt, she didn't even know what she thought about the emperor.
Although she was pregnant with his child, she was still a little uncertain about his feelings.

After chatting with Nanny Chen for a while, Su Qingning went to the inner room to take a nap as usual.

…………

In Chengqian Palace, Emperor Chen looked at the memorial in front of him, and couldn't help frowning. In the past, when Southern Chu came to Daxing, all the products they sent were the special products of Southern Chu. It was never heard that they sent the saintess.

After all, it is the emperor, and he knows about the affairs of the Southern Chu Kingdom. Most of the saints of the Southern Chu Kingdom will become the concubines of the Southern Chu Kingdom.

After thinking about it, Emperor Chen looked at Zhou Chengren and ordered him to invite Shen Yu into the palace.

Putting the memorial aside, Emperor Chen will deal with other matters first.

When Shen Yu came to Chengqian Palace, the emperor's memorial was almost read, he ordered Shen Yu to get up, and gave him a seat.

Asking Zhou Chengren to hand over the Southern Chu Kingdom's memorial to Shen Yu, the emperor asked him what he meant, "What do you think about this matter?"

After a period of contact, Emperor Chen discovered that Shen Yu was very insightful, and he was willing to ask Shen Yu to advise him on certain matters.

After receiving the memorial, Shen Yu read it again. He had heard about the things in the memorial before.

"My minister feels that since the Southern Chu Kingdom intends to send a holy girl to the emperor as a harem, the emperor will accept it." The person in front of him is the emperor, the sixth court of the Sangong, 72 concubines, one more woman and one less woman, no difference.

"To put it simply, the saintesses of all dynasties are the concubines of Nanchu, but now they are going to enter my harem. If other countries know about it, they will think that I am intimidating Nanchu!"

"Furthermore, for me, there are quite a few people in the harem now, and I don't plan to expand the harem."

Looking at Shen Yu, the emperor was talking about his own thoughts, and Shen Yu was a little surprised when he said this.

As a court official, he had heard about the late emperor when he was still in Zhongzhou.

The late emperor's concubines, that is called more than one, really reached the situation of 72 concubines in the Sixth Court of Sangong.

It is said that when there are the most concubines, they have to line up outside Fengyang Palace to pay their respects to the queen.

After all, the current emperor is the late emperor's son, Shen Yu thought that he would be the same as the late emperor, but unexpectedly, he had completely different ideas.

"Since that's the case, the emperor politely refused. I thought, could it be that Nan Chu wanted to ask the emperor for something, so he sent the saint. After all, to Nan Chu, the saint is very sacred?"

After thinking about it, Shen Yu spoke again. When he said so, Emperor Chen nodded.

"Maybe so, I will send people to investigate to see if they have something to ask for, that's why this is the case."

"Speaking of which, since it's hot today, Su Xiuyi's appetite has not been very good. I wonder if Mrs. Shen can do anything to improve her appetite?"
