Don't be a salted fish, the daily life of the concubine in the palace

Li Yuanjing raised the corners of his lips. Shen Wei had no secrets from him at all. He liked Shen Wei's honesty and straightforwardness.

Li Yuanjing opened the letter and read it quickly.

Shen Xiuming never asked Shen Wei to compete for favor, nor did he ask her to persuade the emperor. He was only concerned about whether Shen Wei was living a good life in the palace.

Between the lines, the image of a brother who cares about his family comes to life.

Shen Wei handed the peeled chestnuts to Li Yuanjing's mouth, and Li Yuanjing ate them naturally. Shen Wei's face was full of gossip, and she pointed to the last few paragraphs in the letter: "Your Majesty, please read these sentences. My younger brother is particularly caring for Mo Xun."

Li Yuanjing put down the letter and nodded: "It is indeed affectionate."

Li Yuanjing took two open chestnuts, peeled off the shells, and handed one of the peeled chestnuts to Shen Wei: "Does he know that Mo Xun is a girl?"

Shen Wei rolled her eyes and grabbed Li Yuanjing's sleeve: "He must know that Doctor Mo is a girl. Your Majesty, can my little brother and Mo Xun have any result?"

Li Yuanjing was peeling chestnuts. Seeing Shen Wei's eager eyes, he curled his thin lips slightly and told Shen Wei a secret: "Mo Xun is a married woman."

Shen Wei was stunned.

She came close to Li Yuanjing, held his big hands as he peeled chestnuts, and gossiped, "Your Majesty, please don't keep me in suspense. Tell me, who is the husband of Imperial Doctor Mo?"

Li Yuanjing possessed Shen Wei and whispered a few words into her ear.

Shen Wei couldn't believe it: "The State Master of Yue State repeatedly sent people to hunt down Doctor Mo. How could they be husband and wife? How could there be such a bizarre couple in the world?"

Shen Wei has always known that Mo Xun had a grudge against the State Master of Yue.

But she didn't expect that Mo Xun was actually the wife of the Yue State's national master.

The two of them have been married, had their wedding banquet, and have been together for more than ten years, and are still performing the bloody drama of "she runs away and he chases".

Li Yuanjing said: "I don't know the inside story, but the State Master of Yue State is deeply in love with Mo Xun."

Maybe there was a misunderstanding between the two, which led to their separation.

Shen Wei sighed inwardly.

The State Master of Yue was powerful and vicious. Her brother Shen Xiuming might not be able to compete with him. If the State Master of Yue wanted to kill him, Shen Xiuming might die on the way.

I will write a letter to my brother and ask him to let go of Mo Xun as soon as possible.

It was dark, and Li Yuanjing and Shen Wei continued to chat under the lamp, gossiping about other people's families. Li Yuanjing quite liked this kind of leisurely and free time, and he felt relaxed.

Until the voice of the palace maid was heard outside the house, dinner was already prepared.

Shen Wei put the letter from home into the box on the desk and followed Li Yuanjing to enjoy a delicious dinner.

...

...

Changxin Palace.

After Shen Wei was named Imperial Concubine today, Lu Xuan had been holding back her anger. The table was filled with exquisite and delicious dishes, but she didn't even taste a single bite.

"Master, please have a bowl of Tremella and bird's nest porridge." The palace maid Xiaoqin brought the warm porridge.

Lu Xuan didn't move her chopsticks.

She couldn't eat it.

Since Shen Wei returned to the palace, Lu Xuan has received less and less favor. Even when she was pregnant, Li Yuanjing did not come to her more often, and only occasionally sent someone to deliver some health supplements.

Lu Xuan stroked her bulging belly, feeling a pang of sadness. The beautiful past when she and Li Yuanjing were inseparable seemed to have become a dream, becoming increasingly unreal.

Xiaoqin comforted her, "Master, don't think too much. If the emperor really liked Concubine Chen, he would have made her the empress against all odds. Now he only made her a noble concubine, it must be for General Shen's sake."

After Shen Mieyue escorted Princess Zhaoyang to Yue State, he stayed there for ten days. He did not change his name, but ate, drank, defecated and urinated on other people's territory under the name of "Mieyue". Then, holding a big knife, he fought several generals of Yue State and did not lose a single battle.

In the end, it was an old general of the Yue State who fought in the battlefield who took action and fought Shen Mieyue to a draw, thus saving the face of the Yue State. The two became close friends and drank and had fun together.

During these ten days, the name of the mighty general Shen Mieyue became known throughout the Kingdom of Yue, greatly promoting the prestige of the Kingdom of Qing.

Shen Mieyue returned to Liangzhou City and continued to guard the border.

Lu Xuan thought of the rumors about Shen Mieyue, lowered her beautiful eyes, and laughed at herself: "I hope I am overthinking...Xiaoqin, ever since the Tantai family was confiscated, I have always felt a little anxious."

Anxiety, but I don’t know why.

Xiaoqin comforted her, "Master, worrying is harmful to your health. The baby in your belly is the most important thing now."

After a pause, Xiaoqin continued, "The emperor is staying in Yongning Palace again tonight. Someone saw Concubine Chen's maid carrying a food box and heading towards the Imperial Hospital."

Lu Xuan raised her beautiful eyes and said sarcastically, "Noble Concubine Chen is really bold. She dared to have an affair with the imperial physician under the emperor's nose."

Xiaoqin brought the warm porridge over and said softly, "Noble Concubine Chen is ungrateful and digging her own grave. We have plenty of opportunities to bring her down."

Lu Xuan's irritability subsided a little.

She drank the bird's nest porridge slowly, thinking about the strategy to suppress Shen Wei.

...

...

Late at night, the harem was quiet, and the palace lanterns were extinguished one by one. As the Mid-Autumn Festival approached, the moon gradually became full, and the bright cold light covered the palace tiles with a layer of silver frost.

In the desolate Qiuliang Palace, insects are chirping.

Under the albizzia tree with yellowing leaves, there was a simple gray tent that looked like a tomb. Mo Xun curled up in the quilt, with dense beads of sweat on her forehead. She closed her eyes tightly, as if she was having a nightmare.

After a long time, she suddenly opened her eyes.

Bright moonlight came in through the cracks in the tent. Mo Xun wiped the sweat off his forehead, his fair face still showing panic. Mo Xun covered his heart and heard the thumping sound of his heart.

"Strange, why are there iron birds flying in the sky and iron boxes running on the ground... What a weird world." Mo Xun walked out of the tent and looked up at the tall Albizia albizzia tree.

The moonlight was like mercury, and the albizzia trees rustled slightly.

Every time she slept under this big tree, she would dream of very strange scenes.

In the dream, there was a huge iron bird flying in the sky, an iron box with four tires running on the ground, people lived in very tall buildings, and everyone held a small glowing board in their hands.

In her dream, she walked into a tall house and into a very strange big room.

On the doorplate, it says [Physics Laboratory No. 8].

In the dream, several people in white clothes walked towards her, mumbling something that Mo Xun could not understand.

Mo Xun recalled the scenes in his dream and muttered to himself: "What is a laboratory...what is physics..."

I thought about it for a long time, but couldn't figure it out.

Mo Xun wandered in the desolate courtyard for a long time until she ate all the chestnuts Shen Wei had given her. Finally, she went back into the tent and fell into a deep sleep in the quiet palace courtyard.
