It is said that Concubine Ling followed Concubine Shu, and people from the two palaces came to Shoukang Palace together. The other concubines basically came with the head of the family. Shen Ruochen was the only one in the Chuxiu Palace, and so was Concubine Jin, so they were the only ones in this group, which was slightly less.

Concubine Shu was the last to arrive. As soon as she came in, she walked up to Concubine Jin, looked at Shen Ruochen with her eyes, and said with a smile, "I heard that Kunning Palace was very lively this morning. Is it because of my sister? My sister was scared. ?”

Shen Ruochen was afraid of Concubine Shu. He had killed all the people in Concubine Duan's palace last time. He still hadn't forgotten it. When he saw Concubine Shu smiling, Shen Ruochen felt terrified and instinctively hid behind Concubine Jin.

"What's wrong with my sister? It seems she's really scared." Seeing this, Concubine Shu looked at her and said.

"Yes, I am a timid girl who doesn't want to see strangers." Concubine Jin stood in the front, "If Concubine Shu needs anything, please tell me!"

"It's nothing, this is just a question out of concern!" Concubine Shu said with a smile, "Sister, I got up late this morning and didn't go to the queen's house. I just heard about it and thought I'd ask so as not to frighten the Shen family. younger sister."

"It's okay, I'm here, Concubine Shu is worried about you." Concubine Jin said expressionlessly.

Seeing this, Concubine Shu raised her eyebrows and said, "Okay, then I won't worry about it anymore. Sister Jin Concubine will be affected."

As soon as she finished speaking, the Queen Mother sent word for everyone to go in. Shen Ruochen stood behind and followed everyone in, all greeting the Queen Mother.

"Concubines, please give your regards to the Queen Mother and wish her a long life and good fortune!"

"Everyone, get up and watch!" The Queen Mother raised her hand and said she was watching, but there were not so many stools. They were just for concubines and above, and the rest were standing behind. It was crowded, and those who were favored and those who wanted to be favored were all standing in the first row. Also, standing would attract more attention than sitting, right?

Shen Ruochen looked through the cracks and saw Princess Huihe sitting next to the Queen Mother, picking oranges for the Queen Mother! At first glance, the oranges were not very fresh. Shen Ruochen thought to himself, if it could be made into sugar water, it would be no fun to eat it like this!

Everyone was surrounding the Queen Mother, saying auspicious words, and many couldn't help but look outside. They must be thinking why the Emperor hasn't come yet? Shen Ruochen felt very bored. Suddenly someone mentioned what happened in the morning. Shen Ruochen lowered his head in fear and pricked up his ears to listen.

Sure enough, he mentioned himself.

Princess Huihe smiled and said, "Oh, Shen agrees? Do you still remember this princess? Is this one here yet?"

Shen Ruochen scolded his mother in his heart, but he had to stand up respectfully and said, "Promise Shen to pay homage to the Queen Mother and the eldest princess."

"Get up quickly, Third Brother is not here?" the Queen Mother asked with a smile, obviously still remembering this girl.

"It was a bit cold when I got up early, so I didn't bring Third Brother here, which also upset the Queen Mother." Shen Ruochen lowered his head and replied respectfully.

The Queen Mother nodded, "Well, children are young and are afraid of the cold. The weather has changed a bit recently. Those of you raising princes and princesses must be careful not to let your children get cold. Do you understand?"

Immediately, several people stood up and said in unison, "I will follow the teachings of the Queen Mother."

Shen Ruochen retreated with everyone, but Hui He stopped Shen Ruochen and said, "Shen Ruochen, I was the one who got angry last time. Is the injury on your hand okay?"

Shen Ruochen said hurriedly, "I am a concubine who acted rashly. The eldest princess can just forgive me. The injuries have been healed."

Some people knew it, some didn't know it. Anyway, everyone now knew that Shen Ruochen was beaten by the eldest princess.

"Oh," Huihe said casually, "Where's your girl? Is she ready?"

Shen Ruochen was stunned for a moment, thinking that he had been discovered about sending Guizhi away, but he asked Sister Jin Fei to hide Guizhi in the box in the back room and send it away. If he was discovered, how could he not say anything? ? Shen Ruochen glanced at Huihe cautiously, but he was nowhere to be seen. He had no choice but to say tentatively, "That palace maid Fu Bo is dead."

Hui He had a look on his face, as if he knew Guizhi would die. When Shen Ruochen saw it, he understood that it was indeed a skill in making a plan. If it weren't for Imperial Physician Leng, Guizhi might really have died.

That emotion just flashed past, and Hui He put on a very pity look, "Why are you still dead? Really... doesn't this make this princess more sinful?"

If you're afraid, don't fight! Shen Ruochen was full of contempt and said nothing.

Concubine Shu quickly comforted her and said, "Eldest Princess, don't think so. You are doing it for the sake of the rules and for her own good. Who knows that she is not lucky? If she dies, she will die. Don't worry about it."

"But..." Huihe still pretended to be sad.

"Why are you bringing up a dead girl on such a beautiful day!" The Queen Mother said, finally ending the topic. Shen Ruochen hurriedly stepped back, returned to the back of the many Yingying Yanyans, and continued to be a transparent person.

Everyone was also smart, so they immediately changed the festive topic, chatting and laughing with each other, and while Shen Ruochen was standing in the back bored, suddenly Emperor Yuande came, and finally he came, otherwise there would be no one in this room. A few hopes for a husband are not enough.

"The Emperor has arrived!"

"Greetings to your Majesty, may your Majesty be blessed!" Everyone knelt down and said, as if they had been given a shot of chicken blood. They seemed to have regained their fighting strength in an instant.

Shen Ruochen couldn't help but admire him, these people in the palace are really amazing! At least you have unlimited energy!

"Get up," Emperor Yuande stepped forward and greeted him respectfully, "Greetings to the Queen."

"Your Majesty, get up, get up, you are all here at the Ai family. The Ai family feels that this house is a lot smaller," the Queen Mother said with a smile, "Is the Emperor busy recently? "

Emperor Yuande smiled and said, "Because there were so many things in the previous dynasty, I couldn't come to pay my respects to the Queen. Today is the Double Ninth Festival, which is also called Respect for the Aged Day among the people. This is why I have to kowtow to the Queen." Woolen cloth!"

"Oh, there were a lot of things in the previous dynasty, and state affairs were the most important thing. As long as the emperor is willing, there is no need to come in person," the Queen Mother said with a smile, "With your sister here, the Queen's heart feels comfortable, and her body is naturally comfortable. very."

After saying that, he patted Hui He who was leaning against him.

Emperor Yuande looked at Princess Huihe next to him and said with a smile, "Elder sister, are you having a good time recently?"

"Thank you for your concern, brother. I feel very relieved to be able to return to the capital and see E Niang." Hui He said respectfully.

Emperor Yuande nodded, "Eldest sister has worked hard these years. From now on, she will stay in the palace and accompany the emperor."

"Then the Ai family will be happy!" The Queen Mother said with a smile, and added, "I heard that the queen has been raising a baby, how is her health recently? The Ai family wants to go and see her, but her health has not been good recently, so I didn’t dare to go.”
