The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise

After the Minister of Revenue, Lord Mu, finished reading it, all the ministers were stunned. It was only a thousand taels away from a hundred thousand taels. Those kids were really rich.

Emperor Wenzong of Tang only knew that dozens of children had donated, but he did not expect the amount to be as high as 99,000 taels.

After the court meeting, Ji Chenyu was in a very good mood. Seeing the undisguised smile on his lips, Shen Jiarou looked helpless.

At this moment, the emperor's brother was like a childish boy, and he was still happy even after he sat down.

"Fourth sister, don't you think the faces of those ministers are very interesting?"

Shen Jiarou said helplessly: "Brother Emperor, you should take it easy and not make the elderly ministers angry."

"I see they are full of energy and vigor, and they are full of vigor when they challenge me."

Seeing his childish look, Shen Jiarou couldn't help but smile.

"Please pay attention to your dragon body."

Hearing her caring words, Ji Chenyu felt sweet and relieved in his heart that his sister was still on his side. Although there was no love between the two of them, they had a brother-sister relationship for decades.

Thinking about the donation, Ji Chenyu had a lot of doubts in his mind.

"Fourth sister, why did these kids suddenly think of donating?"

"It was Brother Heng, that big mouth, who talked about it with Muxuan, Zibai and the others. When the children heard it, they all wanted to donate their own money." To be honest, she was quite pleased when she first heard it. After all, it was rare for the children to have such an idea, and she was quite supportive.

Ji Chenyu laughed: "Okay, okay, the children are thoughtful. When you leave the palace later, bring some food for the children."

"it is good."

Shen Yirou came to the Imperial Study today to wait for Shen Jiarou, as Concubine Shun wanted her to accompany her for dinner. Shen Jiarou learned of her arrival and sped up her review of the memorials.

Seeing Shen Jiarou coming towards her, Shen Yirou hurriedly bowed respectfully.

"Princess Regent, are we going back directly?"

"Yes, thank you Aunt Shen for waiting."

"You are so polite, Princess Regent. Please come in!"

Everyone came to Concubine Shun's palace, where the meal had just been placed. Concubine Shun kept checking the dishes.

"My son has met my mother and concubine."

Concubine Shun smiled gently and nodded: "No need to be polite, our meals are ready, let's go and have dinner."

"Yes, concubine."

The mother and daughter went to the dining room together, and Concubine Shun asked her to sit down.

"Sit down now."

"Mother, please sit down first."

Shen Jiarou reached out and scooped a bowl of sour radish and duck soup and placed it in front of Concubine Shun: "Mother, have a bowl of sour radish and duck soup."

"Thank you, Yi Yi, please serve yourself a bowl of soup."

Shen Jiarou smiled gently and said, "Okay."

She reached out and served herself a bowl, then began to drink and taste it.

"This soup tastes good, very refreshing."

"Mother, it's delicious. This pickled radish is also very refreshing."

"This duck has a lot of lean meat. You should eat more duck meat."

"Well, you too."

Seeing her favorite stir-fried vegetables, Concubine Shun reached out and picked up a piece with chopsticks and put it in her bowl.

"Here, the dishes you like."

"Thank you, mother!"

The mother and daughter enjoyed the delicious and light lunch seriously. After the meal, Shen Jiarou looked at Concubine Shun and spoke.

"Mother, I will leave now and take a nap."

Thinking that Yi Yi still had to go to the Imperial Study to review memorials in the afternoon, Concubine Shun also urged, "Okay, go quickly."

Shen Jiarou bowed respectfully and said, "I'll take my leave."

Watching her gentle and graceful figure leave, Concubine Shun's gentle eyes were full of reluctance.

The elderly Nanny Fang stood behind Concubine Shun with a cloak in her hand and gently put it on her.

"Mrs. Dowager, it's still a little cold, you should go in."

Unable to see Shen Jiarou's gentle figure, Concubine Shun lowered her eyes slightly and spoke.

"go in."

After washing and changing clothes, Shen Yirou helped Concubine Shun lie down, then lowered the curtains on both sides. Lian Qiao lit the fine spices sent by Shen Jiarou, so that Concubine Shun could have a better nap.

Shen Jiarou, who was lying flat on the bed, thought that she was already twenty-eight years old and lamented that time passed quickly.

When I think about when I first came to this era, I was just over six years old. Now, twenty-two years have passed, and I have almost lived one-third of my life.

Shen Jiarou didn't expect that she had another nightmare. The blood in the dream scared her so much that she couldn't wake up.

Zhang Zirou and Zheng Shutong became worried when they heard their master talking in his sleep, so they opened the door of the bedroom and walked in.

The two of them lifted the curtain and put it away. Zhang Zirou leaned over and spoke softly.

"Princess, Princess, please wake up."

Seeing that it was useless, Zheng Shutong became anxious and hurriedly tried to wake up Shen Jiarou.

"Princess, please wake up."

Shen Jiarou suddenly opened her eyes and exhaled deeply. She looked at the familiar ceiling of the bed and relaxed slightly.

"How did you get in?"

Zhang Zirou said, "Your servant and Shutong are a little worried when hearing what you said."

Shen Jiarou frowned and was stunned: "Did I talk in my sleep?"

Zhang Zirou nodded seriously: "Yes, you are having a nightmare."

Shen Jiarou sighed softly: "Yeah, the last time I had a nightmare was several months ago."

"By the way, what time is it?"

Zheng Shutong said: "It's time to go to the imperial study."

Shen Jiarou got out of bed: "Please wash, change clothes and do my makeup for me."

The two bowed respectfully and said, "Yes, Princess."

Zhang Zirou went out to the side hall to call Zhen Luosang, Zheng Shutong and Nami who were taking a nap and started to work. When Zhen Luosang came in, Shen Jiarou had already changed her clothes, and Nami helped her to sit down at the dressing table.

"Princess, I will change your hair into a simpler one."

Shen Jiarou smiled faintly and said, "Okay."

When she finished her work and took the ceremonial guard to the imperial study, Ji Chenyu had already started processing memorials.

"Your humble sister greets your royal brother."

"Here you go, sit down."

"Yes."

Shen Jiarou lifted her skirt and sat upright. Seeing the memorials in front of her, she picked one up and began to review them carefully.

The brother and sister have been working together for many years and have already formed a certain tacit understanding with each other.

As the sun sets, its afterglow shines into the spacious imperial study. Shen Jiarou's gentle and bright face appears even more gentle under its illumination.

"This sunset is quite beautiful."

Shen Jiarou was stunned and looked up, glanced at Ji Chenyu, then turned and looked outside the imperial study, and saw the "scenery of heaven and earth" with only a door frame.

"It's quite beautiful."

After reading the memorial she had reviewed, Shen Jiarou smiled faintly and pursed her lips and said, "Brother Emperor, I will leave the palace today and take my leave."

"Go ahead." His Fourth Sister was different from him. She had a husband and children at home who needed him, and he had nothing except those concubines who were attracted by his power and status.

Luo Cheng looked at the silent Ji Chenyu, and stepped forward to remind him despite being afraid that he would get angry.

"Your Majesty, you haven't turned over the concubine's name card for two nights. Whose name card are you going to turn over tonight?"

"Please help me flip one at random." The concubines in the harem seemed to have their every move and smile dictated, making him feel very fake, and not even as good as the time he spent with the late queen.
