Time Travel: The actress's acting skills exploded, and she was favored by the harem

During this period, Concubine Zhao has indeed been much more obedient. Now she knows that it is difficult for her to win the emperor's favor, so she simply places all her hopes on the eldest prince.

The eldest prince was now nearly five years old. At Concubine Zhao's insistence, he was not sent to the Yangqin Palace, but continued to stay in the Yuquan Palace and be raised by his mother.

Bo Muxi was reluctant to agree at first, but was still a little worried that the eldest prince was too much influenced by Concubine Zhao and might be led astray further.

But after thinking it over, I still considered the relationship with my maternal family and let her do as she pleased.

After all, he is Bo Muxi's first son. Because of Concubine Zhao, although Bo Muxi does not particularly favor him, he also values ​​him.

At the request of Concubine Zhao, a teacher was arranged for him to study, and he was also taught riding and archery, so he was officially enlightened.

"Mother!" The eldest prince was reading in the study. When he saw Concubine Zhao coming, he ran over and acted coquettishly.

"How was your study today? Did you listen to your teacher?" Concubine Zhao touched her son's head lovingly.

"My son has memorized the books fluently these days. The master even praised me for it!" The eldest prince was full of pride.

"That's good. You have to study hard to get more attention from your father. You are the eldest prince, you can't let your younger brothers surpass you. You have to try your best to win at the starting line so that you can compete to become the crown prince in the future."

Whenever Concubine Zhao talked about this, she would sigh. It was all because of her own incompetence that she could not win the emperor's favor, and as a result, her son was also not favored.

"Mother, they all say that if you give birth to a younger brother, he will be considered the real eldest son. If that is the case, can my son still be considered the eldest prince?" The eldest prince's childish face showed an inappropriate maturity.

According to palace regulations, all royal heirs are the queen's children, so the princes have to call the queen "mother".

"Child, no matter who is born, it will not change the fact that you are the eldest prince." Concubine Zhao forced a smile, unable to help feeling sad.

"Since mother said so, I will remember it! I am the eldest prince, and I will strive to become the crown prince in the future to make mother proud!" The prince, who was less than five years old, already had the temperament of a little adult.

This child is not stupid. At this age, he seems to be able to understand his mother's situation.

Concubine Zhao's eyes suddenly filled with tears. With such a good son, how could she not work hard?

"Okay, mother is waiting...looking forward to my son's success and winning the recognition of your father. I don't know how happy mother will be when you become the crown prince..." Concubine Zhao kept nodding, with big tears streaming down her face.

"Don't cry, mother." The eldest prince stretched out a small fleshy hand and wiped away Concubine Zhao's tears.

The child is strong and sturdy compared to other children of the same age.

"Don't worry, mother. I will study hard. Father will like me!" said the second prince.

"You have the blood of the Bo family and the Zhao family flowing in your body. You are naturally more noble than the average prince. When you become successful in the future, your mother will also... succeed." Concubine Zhao tried her best to hold back her tears and forced a smile.

"Don't worry, mother. I understand and I will work hard!" The eldest prince nodded heavily.

Concubine Zhao would never have thought that today's seemingly tender conversation between mother and son would invisibly plant a seed in the eldest prince's young heart.

This will make him grow out of his immaturity prematurely and will completely change his character and destiny.

In the next few days, Shen Zhiyao was busy preparing for the Mid-Autumn Festival dinner.

Because the second prince caught a cold, Concubine Zhuang was extremely nervous and stayed by the child's side all day. She had no time to deal with the affairs of the harem. Shen Zhiyao, the assistant manager, became the main manager.

She did not complain, but just took it as a learning experience. Since she had no experience in organizing things, she asked the Queen for advice several times.

Fortunately, the queen’s pregnancy was stable and she had enough energy to help her.

On this day, an autumn rain fell, and people said that this was an auspicious sign of a good autumn harvest.

With each autumn rain, the weather turns colder.

Shen Zhiyao smiled and told the queen: "You must remember to change to a thicker quilt tonight. Be careful not to catch a cold. During pregnancy, there are only a few medicines that can be used."

"I understand. I'll ask Shijin to change it later." The queen said with a smile.

"Oh, Madam Jin Shuyi is incredible! Yesterday I advised the master to change to a thicker quilt, but you dismissed me with a sentence 'I can't stand the heat'. As soon as you asked, the master asked to change to a thicker quilt."

Shijin is now quite familiar with Shen Zhiyao, so he can't help but tease her a little.

"You are such a talkative girl." The Queen chuckled and said, "Why don't you go to the kitchen and bring some more delicious dishes? Jin Shuyi has lost a lot of weight in preparation for the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet."

"Empress, I'm really not tired! I don't know what's wrong with me lately, but I always have no appetite." Shen Zhiyao said with a smile.

"Then let the kitchen cook some delicious food for you today."

The Queen's eyes were full of pity. This person really saved her a lot of trouble. The Queen always liked practical people, and Shen Zhiyao was obviously a "practical person".

After going through so many things, Shen Zhiyao and the Queen became close friends, and they had a kind of mutual appreciation like Boya and Ziqi.

From using each other in the beginning to achieving each other now, it is truly rare in this harem.

Of course, neither of them is a good person, and the only reason they can get along so harmoniously is because the other is worthy.

With the help of Fengyi Palace, the kitchen indeed sent over a lot of delicacies.

"Empress, since you are so happy today, why not ask everyone to enjoy it together?" Shen Zhiyao suggested with a smile.

"Well, this is a great suggestion. You might as well set up a table and enjoy it together." The queen said with a smile.

Thus, several servants who were ranked high also sat at the same table, and Fengyi Palace celebrated the Mid-Autumn Festival in advance.

The Queen and Shen Zhiyao took care of each other and ate a little more than usual.

After lunch, Shen Zhiyao yawned repeatedly, perhaps because she was tired from the past few days.

"Or, you can rest here." The queen said softly.

"If it were a normal day, I would have rested here for a while, but today I have to rush to prepare some small items as a surprise for the Mid-Autumn Festival dinner. The tools and materials are all in Cuiweixuan, and I have to hurry back to make them." Shen Zhiyao said with a wry smile.

"Look how tired you are. This is the first time you organize such a grand banquet. Just follow the rules and don't push yourself too much." The queen shook her head helplessly. This man was too dedicated to his work. Even she, the queen, couldn't beat him.

The Queen had no idea that Shen Zhiyao had always worked very hard no matter which crew she was in. She even earned the title of "Workaholic" and was truly the "King of Films".

"I'm not..." Shen Zhiyao yawned again and said, "I'm afraid of embarrassing the Queen... I have to do the things you entrusted me with properly, and I can't let those royal family members criticize me."

"Okay... then let Shijin follow you so he can help." Seeing that she couldn't persuade him, the queen had to send her own servant to help.

"Thank you very much, Her Majesty, for your kindness. It is of great significance to have someone as clever and skillful as Shijin to help us." Shen Zhiyao was afraid that the queen would worry, so she did not refuse and took Shijin away without any hesitation.

The queen nestled on the chaise longue, watching Shen Zhiyao smile. In the interweaving of light and shadow, she looked particularly gentle.

This person has always been introverted, warm but not hot.

Before leaving, for some reason, Shen Zhiyao turned her head several times, as if she wanted to look at the queen a few more times before leaving.
