First break up the relationship, then get rich, I can choose any handsome man in the world

Concubine Jin lowered her head, tears streaming down her face.

Seeing her crying, Lu Shian couldn't help but click his tongue: "Tsk, tsk, tsk, this delicate girl looks so beautiful when she cries. It's a pity that I'm not a man, this trick doesn't work on me."

Lu Shian is not a fool. The palace maid dares to act arrogantly because her master tacitly approves it. Now who is she showing off her pitiful side to?

"I really didn't know you were the virtuous concubine."

"You mean, if I'm not the virtuous concubine, then you guys are not wrong about what happened just now?"

Jin Jieyu wiped the tears from her eyes with her hand and said with great grievance: "It is my fault, please forgive Liuzhu, Madam Concubine Xian.

"It's all my fault, please don't blame our Concubine, Madam Xianfei."

"How dare you! The masters are talking. When is it your turn as a servant to interrupt? Open your mouth."

Liuzhu looked up at Lu Shian in shock, then raised her hand unwillingly and hit herself in the face lightly.

"Hey, are you scratching your itch, or are you following your master and not having enough food?"

Lu Shian said this lightly. Liuzhu gritted her teeth, made up her mind, raised her hand and slapped him hard on the face. Immediately, a bright red finger mark appeared on her cheek.

Que'er led the sedan chair over and saw a group of people gathered here from afar, so she quickened her pace and came over here.

She squeezed through the crowd and came to Lu Shian, subconsciously looking at the people present.

"My lady, let's go back quickly. There are still things that need your decision."

"Today I'll teach you a lesson. If you behave like a slut next time, it won't just be a few slaps."

After saying this, Lu Shian got on the sedan chair and went to Ganquan Palace with everyone’s respectful farewell.

It was not until Lu Shian and his group walked away that Jin Jieyu wiped the tears from her face vigorously, her eyes full of unwillingness.

The virtuous concubine is not as young or pretty as her. She just followed the prince a year earlier. What's so great about that?

Jin Jieyu turned around and stomped on the broken snowman again.

Only after the snow there was trampled flat did she call out, "Let's go."

When Lu Shian arrived at Ganquan Palace, he happened to meet Cheng Anlai.

After Cheng An said some auspicious words to Lu Shi'an, he began to read the imperial edict. It was a reward, and in addition to the things, Li Hongting actually gave Lu Shi'an the mountain where the two of them had been in trouble.

Lu Shian couldn't help laughing after hearing this: "Thank you, Cheng'an. Please go back and tell the emperor that I thank the emperor for his kindness."

Cheng An added: "The virtuous concubine in the harem probably doesn't know about it. The emperor asked me to talk to her."

"Oh?"

"This morning, the Emperor punished the Duke by making him stand in the snow, and told him to go back and ask your daughter what she had done."

"Pfft, haha, how can the emperor be so childish?"

Lu Shian said this, but thought in his heart that this was more like it.

But then she began to wonder if the emperor would make things difficult for the Duke's Mansion again and again.

When the two of them came out of the snowy mountains, Liu Rulan suffered misfortunes one after another. Lu Shian guessed that it must have been Li Hongting's doing, but if it was Li Hongting's doing, why was he punishing the Duke today?

You know, now that he has just ascended the throne, he should win over the court officials.

Cheng An read out the imperial edict and delivered the message before taking his leave.

The room was already filled with food. When Lu'er saw Lu Shi'an coming back, she quickly ordered the servants to serve the meal.

"My queen, please eat less. You can eat well at the banquet later."

After taking a stroll early in the morning, Lu Shian was indeed a little hungry.

As soon as the breakfast was cleared away, the lady came to the palace to congratulate.

Everyone who came spoke auspicious words and flattered to the extreme.

Among them, there were some who had criticized Lu Shi'an a lot at the eldest princess' plum blossom viewing banquet. Now they kept calling her "Empress" and never stopped praising Shi'an and Chen'er, as if they were afraid that their words would fall to the ground.

The time was almost up, so everyone moved to the Linde Hall, which was located in the southwest corner of the Ganquan Palace. After Chen'er was born, Li Hongting ordered people to repair it urgently and named it the Linde Hall. It can be seen that as Li Hongting's first son, Chen'er was given high hopes.

At the full moon banquet, Lu Shian did not see the Concubine Jin, but she did not care. She was just a Concubine Jin.

She and Qin Jingzhi sat on the left and right sides of the emperor respectively. Li Hongting treated them equally. Whenever he picked up food for Lu Shian, he would also pick up food for Qin Jingzhi.

If there is something Lu Shian likes to eat in front of him, he will definitely ask Lu Shian to eat a few more bites.

The other side would also quietly advise Qin Jingzhi: "You can't drink much, drink less."

Seeing how fair Li Hongting was, Lu Shian's good mood suddenly disappeared.

She picked up the scented tea and took a sip, then she had no appetite to eat anymore.

The banquet was not over yet, but Chen'er was whimpering and making a fuss in his sleep. Lu Shian left the banquet on the pretext of going back to coax Chen'er to sleep.

After returning to Ganquan Palace, the quietness around him made Chen'er slowly calm down.

"Chen'er, were you too noisy just now?"

"Mom also thinks it's noisy..."

Lu Shian did not put Chen'er on the bed, but held him in his arms and lay down on his bed.

"Mom will sleep with you, okay?"

The nanny came in from outside and saw that Lu Shian wanted to sleep with the little prince, so she said, "My queen, let this old slave come."

"According to the rules, your Highness is not allowed to lull the little princes to sleep like this."

This rule also has an allusion. It is said that there was a queen in the past who entered the palace for several years before giving birth to a prince. You can imagine how much this queen loved the little prince. She did everything herself, fearing that others might not do it well. She even took care of the prince herself when he slept.

Once, the empress was taking care of the little prince without taking off her clothes. In the middle of the night, she was so tired that she fell asleep, and the little prince was crushed to death by her.

The next day, the queen looked at the cold child in her arms and went crazy.

From then on, there was an allusion that concubines were not allowed to sleep with their children.

Lu Shian was unhappy: "This is my son. I love him more than anyone else. I have the final say on how to raise him. You, get out."

"Yes!" the nanny responded and walked out.

Turning back, she smiled lovingly at Chen'er in her arms: "Oh, my dear."

Although sleeping with Chen'er was cozy, Lu Shian was exhausted.

She has always been a restless sleeper, and today, when she suddenly slept with Chen'er, she became like a wooden person. Not only did she not dare to move her hands and feet, but she also woke up immediately because of the quilt under her body.

When she woke up, Lu'er was serving her. Seeing her wake up, she went over and helped her sit up.

Lu Er joked, "This is the first time I've seen the Queen sleeping so well."

Lu Shian shook his head: "Oh, I didn't expect that I would be so restrained when sleeping."

Turning his head and looking at Chen'er who was sleeping particularly soundly, Lu Shian felt that it was actually nothing to be a little tired.

"Lu'er, go and call everyone in our palace over. I have something to tell them."

"It's late at night now, my lady."

"Ah, late at night? Is it that late already?"

Lu Shian stretched his head and looked outside, and sure enough, it was already dark outside.

"The Emperor came in the evening, but when he saw you were still sleeping, he went back."
