The harem was always the place where news spread the fastest. Concubine Shen Shu was still in the Taiji Hall, and the news that she was taken out of the cold palace by Xia Huanyu spread throughout the harem.

When Concubine Shen Shu returned to Shuya Palace, the visiting concubines came one after another.

Concubine Shen Shu never refused anyone who came, and she met them one by one, and when Shuya Palace calmed down a bit, it was already dark. Only now did Concubine Shen Shu have time to take a look at her palace.

There is still no change in the Shuya Palace. It should be cleaned every day. Because Concubine Shu has entered the cold palace, most of the maids who used to serve have disappeared. Only a few old people remained. It was originally waiting by Concubine Shen Shu's side, but because there was no place to settle, she stayed in Shuya Palace to do some cleaning chores.

After a busy day, the master and servant had the opportunity to hold hands and look at each other with tears in their eyes.

"The empress is finally back. These days when the empress is no longer there, the Shuya Palace is really deserted. Although when the empress was here, because of her health, His Majesty rarely came to stay in the Shuya Palace. But the empress has His Royal Highness, after all, many concubines will give the empress some face and walk around from time to time. The empress is not in the Shuya Palace, but she is really a poor family." A nun sighed softly, her face was full of joy . She had almost given up hope before, and very few people could come out after entering the cold palace.

Concubine Shen Shu smiled when she heard the words, raised her eyes to look at the four or five people kneeling in the hall, and said with a smile: "You have never left this palace when it was the most desolate, and you will surely have a good life in the future."

Concubine Shen Shu raised her eyes lightly, she was finally back.

"Concubine Xie Shu." Xie En's voice was very loud, and Concubine Shen Shu had a faint smile in her eyes. This harem is her battlefield. She has the strongest support, and she firmly believes that she can win this battle. , winning very nicely.

"Your Majesty is here!" The servants sang in harmony from outside, and everyone in the hall was overjoyed. It was a great blessing to be able to serve my master just after he came out of the cold palace.

Concubine Shen Shu stood up slowly, with a smile on her face, she walked quickly to the main hall entrance and greeted her.

This night, some families were happy and some were sad.

"You mean that Your Majesty spent the night in the Shuya Palace last night?" In the morning, the Empress was sitting in front of the bronze mirror and doing her makeup. In the bronze mirror, there was still a bit of weariness between the brows of the delicate woman. , but his brows were tightly furrowed, as if he was suppressing something.

The servant bowed at the side and responded softly: "I report to Empress Qi, but that's the case."

The queen nodded lightly, and finally suppressed the hatred in her heart, and said lightly: "Concubine Shu, can you come to pay your respects?"

"Not yet." The waiter quickly responded.

The queen sneered, "Oh, it's even bigger than Ben Gong's score." Then she frowned suddenly and took a breath of air, "I don't know how to be gentle with my hands and feet, they pulled Ben Gong's hair."

The maid behind her knelt down on the ground and pleaded repeatedly: "My servant knows my mistake, my servant knows my mistake, empress, please forgive me."

"Okay, what's the matter with you? I haven't had your head chopped off yet?" The queen frowned tightly, her eyes filled with disgust, "Why don't you hurry up and fix your bun for me? You're clumsy. "

Hearing the words, the court lady stood up quickly again, quickly pulled a Lingyun bun, took the nine-tailed phoenix crown and inserted it on the queen's bun.

The queen's eyes fell on the nine-tailed phoenix crown, and after looking at it for a long time, she said indifferently: "What is the palace concerned about? No matter how proud she is, she will never become a queen and wear this phoenix crown."

As she spoke, she stood up and asked the maid to put on a dark red robe for her. The phoenix on the robe was about to fly.

After everything was properly dressed, the queen was supported by the maids and walked out of the inner hall door. In the main hall, the concubines who came to say good morning were already waiting in the hall. As soon as the queen walked out, she heard the sound of her clothes moving slightly, and then the concubines greeted her in unison: "The empress is a thousand years old."

The queen went to the back seat and sat down, her eyes swept across the people in the hall, but she didn't find Concubine Shen Shu. With a cold smile in his heart, he said lightly on his face: "Get flat."

As soon as everyone sat down, they heard a soft voice from outside: "I'm really sorry, my concubine is late." As soon as the voice fell, a peach blossom pink palace dress appeared at the door. Wearing peach blossom makeup, wearing a concentric bun, and wearing a butterfly walker, she walked in from the outside.

"Empress Empress Qianxi." Concubine Shen Shu smiled slightly and saluted the Empress.

The queen's eyes fell on Concubine Shen Shu lightly, and the corners of her mouth curled up, with a smile on her face: "It's okay, Sister Concubine Shu has been staying in the Wuyan Palace for a long time, I'm afraid I don't remember the time to ask for peace, so don't give it to Shu Concubine." The imperial concubine is watching the seat. But Ben Gong was confused and forgot to ask someone to add an extra seat."

The maid hurriedly placed a round wooden stool in the front, and Concubine Shen Shu didn't care at all, and responded with a smile: "The concubine dare not forget the rules of greeting the palace in the morning, but today, Your Majesty is from Shu. When Ya Palace left, he ordered the servants not to wake up the concubine, but the concubine didn't notice for a moment and overslept."

The eyes of the concubines in the palace became subtler when they looked at Concubine Shen Shu, and the empress was taken aback for a moment, then she also laughed: "That's true, I heard that your Majesty went to Shuya Palace yesterday, so I should be excused from paying my respects."

After the queen finished speaking, she raised her head again with a smile, and said with a smile: "By the way, Sister Concubine Shu, when you were away, many newcomers were added to the palace. You haven't seen them yet, have you?"

Concubine Shu nodded lightly, and said with a smile: "I've never seen it before."

The queen pointed at Lin Youran, and said to Concubine Shen Shu with a slight smile: "Among the beautiful girls in this class, Hui Zhaoyi is the most favored now, and Hui Zhaoyi is now pregnant with a dragon heir, Your Majesty always agrees with me. The palace said that Hui Zhaoyi was his lucky star. After Hui Zhaoyi entered the palace, there were many happy events in the palace. Now Concubine Xiang and Hui Zhaoyi are both pregnant with dragon heirs. There will be no princesses and princes in the palace for a long time. After a while, The palace is bustling."

The queen paused for a moment before continuing: "Speaking of which, Sister Concubine Shu should have heard of Hui Zhaoyi. Some time ago, Mrs. Xian who was thrown into the cold palace was because she wanted to murder Hui Zhaoyi. The fetus was thrown into the cold palace by His Majesty's order. Did Sister Concubine Shu ever hear Mrs. Xian talk about this?"

Everyone looked at Concubine Shen Shu with some scrutiny, but Concubine Shen Shu didn't care at all, and replied with a smile: "I mentioned it once."

The queen smiled and nodded, "Mrs. Xian is really heinous. Murdering the dragon's heir is a felony, but it's hard to be as lucky as sister Concubine Shu."

All the concubines in the palace looked at the empress and concubine Shen Shu cautiously, each of them was clear in their hearts, there was a lot of gunpowder between the empress and concubine Shen Shu.

The queen has been constantly stimulating Concubine Shen Shu, but Concubine Shen Shu is like a ball of cotton, with a gentle and docile appearance, it seems that the queen is a bit intolerant.

The queen searched for trouble for a while, seeing Concubine Shen Shu completely ignoring it, her heart grew colder, she stood up and said: "There is nothing to do today, everyone should leave, what should we do?"

When everyone heard the words, they all breathed a sigh of relief and saluted the queen. After the queen left the main hall, they waited for Concubine Shen Shu to leave the Weiyang Palace first, and then filed out.

Ning Qian and Lin Youran watched Concubine Shen Shu step up together, exchanged glances, and then went to Xiangzhu Hall together.

"It is said that the empress and concubine Shen Shu have always been incompatible, but it seems to be true." Lin Youran's expression was somewhat pensive.

Ning Qian smiled, and after a long silence, she said: "These two people are not easy to get along with, let's avoid them if we can. If the Queen wants to deal with Concubine Shen Shu, it is very likely that she will choose to follow you and me. Choose one of them. After all, as the queen said, you and I are both pregnant with the emperor's heir, and murdering the emperor's heir is a felony like Mrs. Xian's that can never be reversed."

Lin Youran froze for a moment, then nodded slightly, "Yes, I will be careful."

Ning Qian raised her hand to caress her unprotruded belly, and a deep look flashed in her eyes.

The story of the stone tablet was also spread vigorously in Jincheng, and some people took out the stone tablet and united it with Emperor Xia Guoyuan, and when it came to the mouth of the storyteller in the teahouse, it became, "Xia Kingdom is about to die, and the new monarch's birthday year" Yue then happened on the stone tablet in Jin'an Town, and the rumors quickly spread like a clamor of dust, and gradually spread to the ears of many caring people in Jincheng.

In the afternoon, the magistrate of the county to which Jin’an belonged personally escorted the stele into Jincheng. Many people gathered to watch along the way, and the birth date engraved on the stele was remembered by many people. It was: the eighth year of Mingqi, the twelfth day of the eighth month.

When the news reached the harem, the queen was taking a nap, and the servant who reported the news was waiting outside the door.

After the queen woke up, he was introduced into the inner hall, and the servant hurriedly reported the matter to the queen. The queen nodded faintly, pondered for a moment, and then said: "Go, release the news that King Qi has raised many war horses in Qizhou. I hope that the topic in the teahouse tomorrow will be about King Qi privately raising war horses." , intending to rebel."

The servant nodded lightly, and then hurriedly backed out.

The queen raised her hand and rubbed the corners of her eyes that were a little sore, and softly asked the nurse next to her, "Did your majesty know about this?"

The nanny pondered for a moment, and then said softly: "Your maidservant thinks, I'm afraid I don't know, the court has already descended."

The queen nodded lightly, "Then order people to enter the palace as soon as possible and report the matter to His Majesty one by one."

The nanny hesitated, "Your Majesty, we don't have many people in the court, and the servants are afraid..."

"Afraid? What's there to be afraid of? Just follow my orders. This time, I will make sure that Concubine Shen Shu's mother and son will never recover again."\u003c
