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

...

Shen Wei still lives in Luoyue Lake Villa temporarily, accompanying Princess Zhaoyang, who just broke up, to relax every day. Shen Wei and the princess go boating on the lake together, taste delicious food together, trying to comfort her injured heart.

That night, Shen Wei took some pregnancy-preserving medicine and lay back in bed to rest.

Cai Ping lowered the bed curtains while muttering, "Master, there is no such thing as a wall that is impenetrable. What the princess did that night may not reach the ears of the common people, but it will definitely reach the ears of the queen."

The guards in the villa were assigned to Zhaoyang by the Queen to protect Zhaoyang's safety.

Princess Zhaoyang had suddenly met with misfortune, and the Queen must have known about it.

Shen Wei yawned gracefully and said slowly, "It's a good thing for me that the Queen knows that Zhaoyang was attacked."

A look of confusion appeared on Caiping's pretty face.

Shen Wei smiled and said, "The Princess of Yan has made a mess of the management of the palace. The Queen has long been dissatisfied. If I can show my management skills appropriately, the Queen will train me."

In the Prince of Yan's Mansion today, the wives are not like wives, the concubines are not like concubines, they are all bad, and only Shen Wei can be used and trained.

Caiping suddenly understood.

Shen Wei's guess was correct. The disturbance in the Luoyue Lake Villa had already spread to Kunning Palace. Yun'er lowered her head, knelt in the inner hall of Kunning Palace, and told the queen everything about Luoyue Lake.

The Queen was distressed when she heard this: "That Yan Yunting is really unbearable! How dare he play tricks on my son like this!"

The Queen and the Emperor had long been dissatisfied with Yan Yunting, but Zhaoyang liked him and protected him everywhere, so the Queen could do nothing about it.

Yun'er hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Madam, the princess has now gained enlightenment and has completely let go of Yan Yunting."

The queen breathed a sigh of relief. Zhaoyang had been through this catastrophe, and although he was a little frightened, he had finally come to his senses.

The old nanny brought her some cold tea, and the queen took a sip to moisten her throat, and then thought of the pregnant Shen Wei. The queen asked, "Yun'er, did Shen really remain calm in the face of danger?"

Yun'er did not hide anything and told the Queen everything about Shen Wei's ability to remain calm in the face of danger, her words full of praise.

The queen nodded repeatedly as she listened.

I didn't expect that a daughter of a small farmer would remain calm in the face of danger, arrange everything in an orderly manner, and take all aspects into consideration. It is really rare.

The queen thought of the Princess of Yan who was giving her a headache. Although Tan Tai Shu Ya was the principal wife of the palace, she had no management skills, was not a virtuous wife, and was not a kind mother, making the palace a mess.

Shen Wei has great management skills, takes good care of Zhaoyang, and has deep feelings for the King of Yan. When the King of Yan ascends the throne in the future, she will also be able to manage the harem for him.

However, Shen Wei's family background is too low, and it will be difficult for her to win the support of the people when she manages the harem in the future.

After much deliberation, the Queen decided to wait until Shen Wei gave birth to the child before finding a way to improve Shen Wei's status.

The succession of imperial power is also a game between the new nobles and the old families. It is not a bad idea to raise Shen Wei's family and support them to become the new nobles of the court.

...

...

The remote city of Yunzhou.

The night was dark, the temperature dropped suddenly, and the cold wind howled everywhere. The Prince of Yan was reading documents in the study of his official residence, incense burning in the incense burner, and cold air leaked in through the window.

King Yan sneezed.

Seeing this, the young eunuch who was serving beside him hurriedly tiptoed out of the study. After a while, the young eunuch brought in a thick robe and said respectfully, "My Lord, it's cold tonight. Would you mind if I could change you into a warmer outfit?"

The Prince of Yan put down the file and looked at the black cotton coat with silver patterns. As a grown man, the Prince of Yan would not worry about the clothes he brought when he went out.

It is usually handled by the princess, the mistress of the household.

Prince Yan asked casually, "Did the princess prepare this?"

The young eunuch answered truthfully, "Your Highness, the princess has been very busy these days, and these clothes were prepared by Master Shen of Liuli Pavilion. I heard from Cailian, the maid of Liuli Pavilion, that Master Shen specifically inquired about the climate of Yunzhou and was busy all night preparing warm clothes, cold medicine, mosquito repellent wormwood, and a change of boots. They are all in the carriage."

He changed into new warm clothes, and the eunuch brought him ginger tea to keep him warm and incense to repel mosquitoes and calm his nerves.

Although the weather in Yunzhou is cold, King Yan's heart is warm.

In the huge backyard of Prince Yan's Mansion, only his Weiwei would spend so much time and effort on the details.

After being away for a few days, Prince Yan clutched the file and suddenly missed Shen Wei. This was a feeling Prince Yan had never had before. In the quiet night, the longing slowly surged like a tide, eroding his thoughts bit by bit.

In the past few years, he had been away on business, and he had never missed her so delicately. Now that Shen Wei was in the palace, the King of Yan was like a kite in the sky with a master, and he had a place to return to.

The tiger guard who was out on an investigation walked into the study and handed over a letter with a special seal.

The Tiger Guard saluted and said, "Your Highness, Dr. Mo has been taken away by the State Master of Yue. Before he left, he left this letter."

King Yan opened the letter and read it quickly.

The King of Yan narrowed his eyes, with a sharp coldness in his eyes: "This Yue Kingdom is not unbreakable. The Emperor of Yue is cruel and warlike, and the people are suffering."

Qing and Yue had been at war for many years, with frequent border battles. Qing was originally at a disadvantage, but fortunately, the military advisor of Shangguan Xuan, the Marquis of Zhennan, designed a musket, which enabled the Qing army to achieve remarkable successes and greatly increase its combat effectiveness.

But Yue was unwilling to withdraw its troops and relied on its geographical advantage to fight and defend. If the war was to be stopped completely, the only way was to replace Yue with a peace-loving emperor.

The King of Yan and an ambitious prince of the Kingdom of Yue, as well as the national teacher, were working together to plot a grand plan. However, the King of Yan looked at the last few lines of the envelope and was puzzled.

The prince of Yue who had just returned actually expressed that he wanted to marry Zhaoyang as his wife after the matter was accomplished.

"Tuoba Hongchuan wants to marry Zhaoyang?" Prince Yan raised his eyebrows.

After a long time, King Yan laughed silently.

He placed the letter onto the red candle flame, and it quickly turned into black ash.
