Rebirth as Princess Jin again

Concubine Shu had a quiet temperament and was originally a person who didn't like to interfere with other people's affairs. However, for some reason the emperor suddenly gave Chen Guifei the power to handle harem affairs in her hands. Although she was puzzled, there was no reason why she should not obey the emperor's order.

On this day, Concubine Shu just woke up from her nap. The sun was shining, the weather was getting hotter and hotter, and the palace was silent.

"Master is awake." Qiu Shuang, who was waiting by the side, saw her open her eyes, helped her sit up, and twisted a towel and handed it over.

After her sleepiness completely dissipated, she asked, "What has Jiaoyang been doing these days?"

"The princess clamored to go out of the palace to play a few days ago, but the emperor refused. It's been a lot quieter these days!" Qiu Shuang replied while helping her change clothes.

"That girl has a wild temper. She has been unwilling to stay in the palace since she was a child. If she gets married in the future, she will inevitably make her husband's family laugh!" Concubine Shu said, with a worried look on her face.

Qiu Shuang knelt down and tidied her skirt: "I think the princess has a very good temperament. She looks flamboyant, but she is kind-hearted. Whoever marries the princess in the future will definitely know how good she is after getting along with her."

Concubine Shu smiled and said: "She is giving you something good again. As long as I speak to her, you will help her speak."

Hearing this, Qiu Shuang hurriedly replied: "What I said is the truth, but I heard something recently!"

Concubine Shu asked curiously: "About the blazing sun?"

Qiu Shuang nodded: "I heard from the maid next to the princess that the emperor went to the princess palace for dinner a few days ago and intended to marry the princess to General Xiao's son Xiao Feng, the little guard beside the princess whom the empress has met. But the emperor Xiao Feng is required not to serve as an official in the court, not to have concubines, and not to go to the battlefield. I heard that General Xiao will return to Beijing in a few days."

Concubine Shu listened silently and sighed: "That child grew up with Prince Jin, so his character is not that bad. But since he is a military general, it would be a bit hard for the emperor to prevent him from going to the battlefield. Not to mention Xiao Feng, even General Xiao would definitely not agree if he knew about it."

"My two children are destined to have a bumpy love life. Jing'er has never been married yet. Now she has gone to a border town again. I don't know when she will be able to return to Beijing?"

Qiu Shuang comforted him: "Then if Xiao Feng really likes the princess, no matter how old General Xiao objects, he should fight for the princess. As for His Royal Highness King Jing, he is as beautiful as a tree in the wind, and now he is appreciated by the emperor. As long as he is willing, All the noble ladies in the capital are eager to marry into the palace!"

A smile appeared on Concubine Shu's face: "I hope that he can marry just one princess like Lao Qi. I am also a member of the harem myself, and I know that there are many disadvantages when there are many women. If he can marry the one he likes It’s enough to join hands with people like you for the rest of your life.”

While the two were talking, the princes and princes beside the emperor asked for an audience outside the palace.

Qiu Shuang hurriedly went out and greeted her in person. When the prince saw Concubine Shu, he hurriedly saluted: "I have never seen Concubine Shu!"

"Pingsheng, but what are the emperor's orders?"

The prince replied respectfully: "The emperor said that the empress has worked hard in taking care of the harem these days, and ordered the servant to send some of the bird's nests that were just paid tribute to the empress to replenish her health."

Concubine Shu glanced at the brocade boxes in the back row and said with a smile: "I am grateful for the gift from the emperor. I would like to ask your father-in-law to report back to the emperor. I would like to thank the emperor for the reward."

"Yes!" Wang Gonggong lowered his eyes and said, "The servant will retire first."

After Wang Gonggong and others left, Qiu Shuang opened the brocade box and said with a smile: "My Majesty has always said that she is feeling weak recently. This bird's nest is the most nourishing. Your Majesty treats your Majesty so well."

Concubine Shu smiled faintly: "This is how it is in this palace. If the emperor looks at you differently, he will naturally be able to eat all the good things."

"Your Majesty, please don't say that. Your favor will naturally be good for the future of King Jing and Princess." Qiu Shuang said softly while putting the bird's nest away.

"I'm afraid that person will hate me to death now." Concubine Shu said worriedly.

"But since the queen died, she has always been in charge of the harem. Now you and she have the highest status in the palace. She is just a noble concubine. If she hadn't been hit by the emperor when she was punishing the palace people, the emperor would also I will not entrust you with the responsibility of taking care of the harem. In the final analysis, it is her own fault, why should the empress ask for trouble!" Qiu Shuang was indignant at the side.

"No nonsense!" Concubine Shu scolded: "Concubine Chen punished the palace man because the palace man did something wrong, not because she did something wrong. This matter is not allowed to be mentioned again in the future."

Qiu Shuang knew that she couldn't hold back the truth for a moment, so she could only whisper: "Yes, I don't dare to do it anymore."

Concubine Shu's eyes fell on the boxes of bird's nests, and she ordered: "Separate some of the bird's nests and personally send them to Concubine Chen's palace, saying that they were given by the emperor to the harem."

When Qiu Shuang arrived at Concubine Chen's palace, Concubine Chen was waking up from a nap. She had nothing to do now, so she was not used to being free.

Qiu Shuang lowered her head and walked into the palace, knelt down and said, "My slave, please pay your respects to the imperial concubine. May the imperial concubine be blessed with peace of mind."

"Auntie, no courtesy! Is there something wrong with my auntie coming over now?"

Qiu Shuang respectfully replied: "Recently, a batch of bird's nests of excellent quality have been sent as tribute. The empress ordered my servants to send some specially to the imperial concubine."

As he spoke, he took the tray from the maid behind him and presented it to Concubine Chen personally.

Concubine Chen waved her hand to the maid on the side, and said with a smile: "Concubine Shu has a heart, and I accept her heart."

"Yes, if your Majesty has no other instructions, I will leave first."

After Qiu Shuang left, Nanny Chen, who was beside Concubine Chen, opened the brocade box containing the bird's nest, took a look at it, and said, "Yesterday, when I went to the House of Internal Affairs to collect my share for this month, I saw the bird's nest as a tribute. At that time, I He also said that the emperor would definitely order people to be sent to our palace, but I didn’t expect that they would be in the hands of Concubine Shu today.”

After hearing this, Concubine Chen's face suddenly turned cold: "Now that I no longer have the authority to take care of the harem, and her son has made great achievements in the border town, if there are any good things in the palace, the emperor will naturally send them to her palace first. .”

Nanny Chen secretly glanced at Concubine Chen's face, and then said: "The empress is a concubine after all, and her status is one level higher than her. In the past, these good things were sent directly to the palace from the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Where do you need to get them from Shu?" Share the food in the hands of the concubine."

Concubine Chen's face darkened slightly, and she said angrily: "You are so wanton, what is sharing food? When did I become so depressed that I want to share food from others?"

Grandma Chen hurriedly lowered her head: "I said something wrong, please punish me!"

"Wrong words?" Concubine Chen stared at her without any smile in her eyes and said, "Don't think that I don't know that Xue'er has been calling you to her palace with excuses recently. I know her thoughts, but don't Forget that you are from me, I hate betrayers the most, so please don’t force me to drive you out of the palace.”

Nanny Chen said with an aggrieved face: "Master, the princess is also doing this for the sake of the empress. Do you really want to watch Concubine Shu take the throne in the harem?"

Concubine Chen closed her eyes and said in a deep voice: "I know that she is doing it for my own good, but this matter should not be taken lightly. Let me think about it carefully."

Nanny Chen stopped talking. She understood that going too far is not enough, and she needed to be persuaded slowly on this matter.
