Chapter 48 Princess, calm down, don't draw your sword yet 19
Chaohuang Palace——
The queen, who heard that Fengyi was fine, was furious in the palace, and the sound of porcelain clattering could not be stopped.
"This bitch, this didn't even bring her down."
The queen's teeth were itching with anger, and a hint of evil flashed in her eyes: "I don't know what His Majesty was thinking. Not only did he allow her to command the army, but now that she has committed such treason, His Majesty did not take back her military power."
Qiu Tong, the eldest palace maid beside her, comforted her softly: "Why do you need to be angry? No matter how favored Princess Protector is, she is only a girl. She will eventually get married."
After hearing this, the queen slowly calmed down her angry mood and sat down slowly.
The maid next to her poured tea for her. She reached out to touch it, threw the tea to the ground, and said sternly: "You cheap maid, do you want to burn me to death with such hot tea?"
"Your Majesty, please forgive me, Your Majesty, please forgive me, I know I was wrong!"
The palace maid was so frightened that she kept kowtowing her head, with a look of despair in her eyes.
Qiutong said: "Someone, take her out."
Regardless of whether the tea is hot or not, the news of the queen's temper today will definitely spread throughout the harem. She couldn't let others know that she was dissatisfied because of Fengyi, so she found an excuse.
When Shen Yuanhan walked in, he saw a little palace maid being dragged out, with a cloth stuffed in her mouth, and tears falling freely.
He saluted the queen, frowned, and said, "I don't know what this palace man did to make the queen so angry."
The queen waved her hand gently, and Qiu Tong led all the palace attendants down, leaving only the queen and Shen Yuanhan.
The queen took a sip of tea slowly and looked at her son up and down with sharp eyes.
"I heard that the prince has made great political achievements in the southwest. He killed a number of corrupt officials, which made all civil and military officials praise him."
"The counties in the southwest deceived the superiors and deceived the inferiors, and the officials protected each other. Brother Huang found the account book and led troops to suppress the bandits. Now the good news has been sent, and he will leave for Beijing soon."
Shen Yuanhan's expression was very complicated. He hated and admired this imperial brother at the same time.
Growing up, the queen always compared him with Shen Jingchen. Whenever his memorization or horseback riding and archery lessons were not as good as Shen Jingchen's, the queen would punish him by depriving him of meals until he could memorize.
The queen pondered for a long time and then said: "This is an opportunity."
"Han'er, you must grasp it. Now Shen Jingchen's voice among civil and military officials is getting louder and louder. We must find a way to strangle him in the cradle."
Seeing the hesitation on Shen Yuanhan's face, the queen's face suddenly turned cold and she said, "You have to know that the royal family has no brotherhood. If you want to sit in that position, he will die or you will live."
There was deep resentment and jealousy in her eyes, and she finally managed to fight that woman to death. As a result, Emperor Mingwen still didn't see her in his eyes, and even her own son was overshadowed by her children.
"Han'er, are you willing to be oppressed by Shen Jingchen all your life? Do you want to surrender to him? Why did I give birth to such a useless son like you?"
Shen Yuanhan's lips moved slightly, and he wanted to tell the queen that he didn't want to argue, but in the end he didn't speak.
The queen mother and uncle have planned so much for themselves, and I cannot let their hearts go cold.
If it were before, he would have wanted to trample Shen Jingchen under his feet more than anyone else, but as he went to the private sector, this idea faded a lot.
He still remembered the smiles on the faces of those simple people. When they heard that they were coming, every household was very enthusiastic. They put on clothes only worn during the holidays and killed chickens and sheep to entertain them.
Seeing this scene, he was deeply moved and curiously asked the people why.
What is ridiculous is that these people killed chickens and sheep to entertain him, not because of him, but because of Emperor Mingwen and Shen Jingchen.
After leaving the palace, Shen Yuanhan looked in the direction of Fengyi's mansion, hesitated for a moment and then walked in that direction.
Unfortunately, Fengyi was not in the mansion, but he met two unexpected people.
When Fengyi came back, she heard that the third prince had come to see her.
"Did he say what it was?"
"No, the third prince waited in the mansion for a while and asked the princess what she was busy with recently. He said he wanted to hear the princess talk about border affairs."
Fengyi paused slightly, her eyes a little strange.
In the memory of the original owner, the relationship between her and the third prince was very dull, and she only maintained basic politeness.
The only time was when Shen Wanqing was four years old. Because she was deeply loved by Emperor Mingwen and didn't know how to keep a low profile, the princesses were unwilling to play with her.
At that time, she felt aggrieved and ran to a remote palace to hide, crying secretly alone, and happened to meet the third prince.
At that time, the third prince always had a small face and looked like a grown-up. When he saw her crying alone, she was out of breath.
"What's wrong? Where are the palace people? Why did they leave you here?"
He knelt down and helped Shen Wanqing wipe away her tears: "Stop crying, tell Brother Sanhuang who bullied you."
Shen Wanqing watched Shen Yuanhan lose his temper, pulled his clothes, and explained in a sweet voice: "It has nothing to do with grandma and the others. I ran out on my own."
She clutched Shen Yuanhan's clothes tightly, her eyes as red as a rabbit, cautious and confused.
"Brother Third Emperor, is it that Qing'er is particularly annoying, that's why Sister Huang and the others don't play with me?"
Shen Yuanhan looked at her innocent and ignorant look and was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to explain jealousy to her.
He just told her: "Remember, you are a princess and you don't have to compromise yourself to accommodate anyone."
Finally, I just threw away a sentence that adults use to coax children: "You will understand when you grow up."
Looking at the half-informed person, he just smiled faintly, then sat on the floor, stretched out his hand to rub her little head, and said: "Qing'er is very cute. When my mother scolds me, she will deliberately divert her eyes to help me, and will accompany me." Even if the prince brother stays up late, he will make his father laugh..."
Shen Wanqing blushed and felt a little embarrassed.
