The Young Lady of the General’s House

Chapter Thirty Nine

When Shen Jin arrived in the Queen’s Palace, Princess Rui and Concubine Chen were already inside. After Shen Jin saluted everyone, she was given a seat by the Queen. The Queen laughed, "Look at this small appearance, it’s even more watery than the Chinese New Year meeting. Tender a lot."

At this time, Concubine Chen didn't have the right to speak. It was because of the face of Mrs. Shen Jin, Mrs. Yongningbo, that she could be given a seat. Princess Rui said with a smile, "It's a bit taller."

The queen looked at Shen Jin and asked, "How are your days in the border town?"

Shen Jin got up and said, "If you go back to the queen..."

"Stupid boy, they all talked homely." The Queen said softly, "You don't need to get up to talk back, and why are you so angry, just call Auntie Queen."

Shen Jin's eyes crooked and smiled, and the queen saw that her heart became softer and said, "The golden silk roll in my palace tastes not bad, so Yu Zhu Duan will give Jin girl a taste."

"Auntie Xie." Shen Jin said with a smile, waited for the maid to bring her things, then sat back in her seat, and immediately took a piece and ate it.

Although Chen Bianfei missed her daughter in her heart, she did not dare to say a word at this time, but when Shen Jin came in, she took a few glances and found that her daughter was a lot taller.

Concubine Rui looked at the queen and said, "Sister-in-law, this girl is the best at crawling along the pole."

"I like it when I look at it." The queen said with a smile, "How about the border town?"

After Shen Jin finished eating the golden silk roll, he took a sip of tea and said, "I don't go out often in the courtyard on weekdays."

The queen thought for a while and asked, "Then how do you eat in the mansion? What do you play with?"

Shen Jin lowered his eyes slightly and said, "It's all meat, and I've eaten horse meat for a while. On weekdays, I just embroider things and read books, and I don't have anything else to play with."

Princess Rui flushed her eyes, wiped the corners of her eyes with her kerchief and said, "It's good to be back, no wonder I looked thin. You may not know the emperor's wife. When Jin girl is at home, her favorite thing every day is lightness. This time I wrote a letter and asked for a lot of food, which I used to eat at home, but in a place like a border town..."

Consort Chen lowered her head and wiped her tears silently.

Shen Jin smiled instead, "Mother concubine, I haven't been wronged. Although the food in the border town is more flavorful, it is not unpalatable."

It's obviously true, but it feels sad to everyone's ears. The queen is also a woman, and she feels even more pity for Shen Jin. She asked, "Yongningbo drove back all the people who served you by your side. There are a few people serving in the border town. Is it caring?"

"Originally there were two maids. When the barbarian was besieging the city, there was a maid... Later the husband came back and arranged for a maid." Shen Jin's voice was soft and waxy, "This time I entered Beijing again, A maid was arranged."

Not to mention Princess Rui and Concubine Chen, the queen's eyes were red. Although she didn't know how many dramas were involved, she said with distress, "I have suffered you."

"Enough." Shen Jin said softly, "Auntie Huang, I don't feel bitter."

The queen wiped the corners of her eyes and slowly sighed and said, "Good boy, the Queen knows you are sensible, and the royal owes you a lot."

"..." Shen Jin always felt that the Queen thought too much.

After caring about Shen Jin again, the queen asked, "Why did I hear people say that you drove out all the people who were serving in the mansion yesterday? But what's wrong?"

"No." Shen Jin said, looking at the queen with a look of doubt.

The emperor took a sip of the tea, put down the teacup and said softly, "That drove everyone away, are there enough people to serve?"

"Enough." Shen Jin said with a smile.

The queen slowly sighed and said worriedly, "Do you know that this is a hindrance to your reputation?"

Shen Jin's eyes were confused, "Why?"

"As soon as I came back, I drove so many people away. I don't know what people outside would say." The queen said, "A good reputation is very important to a woman."

Shen Jin comforted after hearing the words, "It's okay, anyway, I don't like to go out and can't hear it."

The queen twitched her eyes and looked at Princess Rui. She saw that Princess Rui was holding tea and didn't notice her eyes. She slightly pursed her lower lip and asked, "Then why drive people away?"

Shen Jin looked at the queen and said, "Because I don't like them."

The queen looked at Shen Jin Xiaolu's eyes, and asked in her heart, "Can't you all drive away?"

"Why can't it?" Shen Jin asked rhetorically.

The empress didn’t know how to answer for a while, she couldn’t say that there were people arranged by Emperor Cheng, so how could she get rid of them all, Shen Jingu said with a bulging cheek, "This is the capital city, I am Mrs. Bo, yes. Uncle Huang and King Father supported me, so I didn't think I liked them so I let them go. I gave them the deed and gave them money."

"Stupid boy." Princess Rui said, "Your auntie is worried about you. It is inevitable that some people will gossip about driving away so many people at once."

Shen Jin smiled sweetly and beautifully, and said, "Thank you, Auntie Huang, but that's okay. There are Auntie and Concubine. They can say a few words secretly at most, and they dare not say in front of me. I don't care."

The queen hasn't tasted this feeling of being choked and speechless for a long time, and what makes her speechless most is that she can see that Shen Jin is serious, and she is really grateful for her relationship, and drank tea. The queen calmed down and continued, "Then what do you like?"

"I don't know." Shen Jin thought for a while and said, "Let's close my eyes."

There is no difference between what the three words close eyes and fate say and don’t say. They are driven away beautifully, driven away by looking at loyal and ordinary, driven away poorly when they are young, and driven away steadily when they are old, the queen reluctantly smiled and said , "Bo Yongning didn't blame you, right?"

"No." Shen Jin turned his face slightly, and the dimples appeared on his smiling face. "The husband has a very good temper."

Killing without blinking, mentioning names can stop children from crying at night, and Yong Ningbo, who does not leave prisoners, has a good temper? The queen carefully looked at Shen Jin's expression, but found that Shen Jin was serious and thought that Yong Ningbo had a good temper, and she couldn't help but look at Princess Rui.

However, after thinking about the situation in the Royal Palace of Rui, some wondered how hard Shen Jin lived in the Royal Palace. That is why she is so satisfied with the current life. Didn't you hear that Princess Rui was taken by her side?

The queen thought for a while, and felt that she knew something. Shen Jin is a concubine after all. Princess Rui has sons and daughters. After her daughter gets married, she is afraid that King Rui is confused and wants Princess Rui to raise Concubine Xu. After all, her daughter, who was raised by her aunt, is also good when she talks to her.

Concubine Chen was not allowed to spoil Concubine, Xu Fang was spoiled and had a son, and Princess Rui was not a fool, so she was so willing to raise Shen Jin as a pretense by her side, afraid that she had no real heart for Shen Jin.

Think about it, even she herself is not like this, but it is a matter of face, no matter how willing to teach them seriously, not to spoil people, it is already kind.

Not only that, the queen has also heard about it. Princess Rui’s concubine Xu Fang loves to be top-notch, and it is understandable that Shen Jin has been cultivated into the now ignorant and satisfying temperament. The queen is full of pity, and said softly, " The border city was besieged by the barbarians that day, and his majesty was worried that he couldn't sleep all day, and he even fell ill. It's not that your uncle the emperor is unwilling to send soldiers to rescue him.

"Oh." Shen Jin didn't know how to answer, so he said no resentment? That's impossible, but even if the queen is gentle enough, she can't say this, so she responded and smiled sweetly at the queen, "It's okay, but the horse meat is a bit unpalatable. At that time, the emperor's uncle sent it. Messenger, even my husband and I ate horse meat, so I gave them horse meat, but they were a bit wasteful, which is very bad. Auntie Huang, I think you can talk to Uncle Huang. It’s extravagance to officials. It's a big taboo, and it's a big deal."

When the queen thought about what the emperor said that day, her eyes twitched, and Princess Rui said, "Don’t talk nonsense, don’t make your aunt the emperor embarrassed, but even if they don’t want to eat, you can’t force them to eat. Why are you so ignorant."

Shen Jin obediently responded, begging for mercy, "Don't dare next time."

After speaking, I slammed my cheeks and complained, "I just thought, they came on behalf of Uncle Huang, and Uncle Huang thought of us in his heart, so I got the best food in the mansion for them, and Uncle Huang also said that because After a disaster, the imperial court is also poor, even the imperial uncle and the imperial aunt have to cut the expenses in the palace, how can they waste it."

The queen actually felt speechless, could it be said that it was just an excuse not to send food, but the court was not poor at all?

Shen Jin was not satisfied and continued, "My husband and I only use one dish and one soup. We prepared four dishes and one soup for them."

The queen looked at Shen Jin's eyes and said for a long time, "They are too naive, Jin girl did the right thing."

Shen Jin smiled with curvy eyes, especially cute, "Auntie Huang praised me too much, I just did what I should do."

Princess Rui smiled very calmly. Concubine Chen Bianfei rubbed the corners of her eyes with her veil from time to time when she lowered her head. Just as the queen wanted to say something, she heard the rumor from the palace that Princess Zhaoyang and Princess Chenyang were coming, and the queen said with a smile, "Bring the two kids in, and make friends with Jin girl."

Shen Jin looked down slightly. Princess Zhaoyang was born by the queen. She was slightly younger than Shen Jin and should be two or three months old. When Princess Chenyang was born, her mother was gone and she was kept by the queen. I heard that she was particularly favored. , Bigger than Shen Jin.

To be honest, these two princesses were very suitable for marrying Chu Xiuming at their ages, but Emperor Cheng did not want his daughter to suffer, and wanted to win over Chu Xiuming to marry a clan, so he chose Rui Wang's daughter.

When the two princesses came in, not only Shen Jin but also Princess Rui and Concubine Chen stood up. Princess Zhaoyang said with a gentle smile on her face, "Auntie, please sit down."

Princess Chenyang glanced at Shen Jin, who was already sitting next to the Queen. Several people sat down again. The Queen smiled and asked her to give her two daughters a new fruit point, and then said to them, "This is your uncle. home's."

"Oh?" Princess Chenyang raised her eyebrows and looked at Shen Jin, "Is that the one who married Bo Yongning? It should be my cousin according to the year and month."

Shen Jin got up and saluted, "Cousin."

Princess Chenyang greeted, Princess Zhaoyang smiled, "Cousin Jin."

"Cousin." Shen Jin said with a smile back.

Princess Zhaoyang is not very old, but she has a dignified smile, "Cousin, please sit down. They are all from your own family, and you don't need to be too polite."

Shen Jin just sat down and said, "Yes."

Princess Chenyang suddenly asked, "Before I listened to the rumors outside, saying that Bo Yongning had a terrifying face and a violent temper. However, Bo Yongning entered the palace yesterday, but there are rumors that Bo Yongning has a crown of jade, which one is true? If Yongningbo is really so good, would those alien races be afraid of him? Isn't it said that they have achieved great military exploits?"
