Concubine Shu deliberately said this in a half-joking tone. Emperor Yinde glanced at her, and the anger on his face dissipated a lot.

Concubine Shu continued, "Your Majesty, the eldest prince is your eldest son. He is still young. You just need to teach him well. Why let him kneel outside in such a cold weather? The servants will not laugh at the joke. If he gets infected, You and the Queen must be worried when the wind and cold hit."

Hearing this, Emperor Yin De sighed softly, "It's just that he was angry because he saw that his progress has been too little recently."

"Then if Your Majesty calms down, I will go and bring His Royal Highness the eldest prince in." Concubine Shu stood up as she spoke.

"I see you becoming more and more presumptuous." Emperor Yin De said this, but his eyes were full of smiles.

Concubine Shu took Chengjin's little hand and came in. Chengjin's cheeks were red, and he was obviously very cold. He still knelt on the ground obediently and apologized, "I know my mistake, please calm down."

After all, it was his own child. Emperor Yinde stood up and helped him up. This was the first time he punished Chengjin, and it was also the first time he saw timidity in the child's eyes.

"Jin'er, when I was as old as you, I was punished a lot. I feel the most distressed when I punish you. But you are the prince. This small punishment will make you grow up quickly and become a gentleman. You know Really?" Emperor Yinde stroked Chengjin's little head and taught him patiently.

Chengjin nodded solemnly and said, "Thank you, my dear father, for your teaching."

"Okay, it's getting late. You go back and have a good rest. You have to go to the study room tomorrow. Li Fuhai, send him back."

After watching Chengjin leave the Yangxin Hall, Emperor Yinde took Concubine Shu and sat on the soft couch again. Xiao Nanzi served her two cups of tea.

"The queen is ill and there are many affairs in the harem. Are you still used to it?" Emperor Yinde took a few sips of tea and asked with concern.

Concubine Shu was in a good mood after receiving the imperial edict today, and she replied with a smile, "I'm just afraid that I won't be able to do it well, for example, taking the eldest prince from school. I was supposed to be the empress." Those who share the worries are actually doing the hard work for Her Royal Highness the Princess."

"It's nothing. Jin'er has been clinging to her aunt since she was a child. It's just you. Don't work too hard and make me worry. Do you understand?" Emperor Yinde stretched out his hand, took Concubine Shu into his arms, and said warmly.

"I know this, and I will definitely not worry Your Majesty."

Concubine Shu put her hand on Emperor Yinde's shoulder. She was really satisfied that he could give her the position of concubine, but she wanted more than that.

"Actually, I wanted to canonize you as a concubine on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, but when I think about it, the imperial concubine's court uniform is cumbersome, and I was afraid that the servants of the Ministry of Internal Affairs would neglect you, so I decided to make you a concubine on the twentieth day of the first lunar month. It will be a hardship for you. , I have to wait five more days.”

Upon hearing this, Concubine Shu shook her head repeatedly, "As long as I can always be by your side, I have nothing to ask for."

Emperor Yinde was holding Concubine Shu like this. How could he not know Concubine Shu's friendship for him over the years?

Ever since she was promised the position of noble concubine, her temperament has indeed become much gentler.

In the fourth year of Yinde's reign, on the twentieth day of the first lunar month, it was the canonization ceremony of Concubine Shu to the Zhou family.

The queen has been ill for almost a month, and for some reason she never gets better.

This month, Emperor Yin De didn't come here much. Most of the concubines were busy fawning over Concubine Shu, and the attendants did nothing about it. Thanks to the eldest princess, she was still taking care of her.

The deep love between emperor and empress was nothing more than a joke.

After the eldest princess sent Chengjin to the study room, she came to Fengyi Palace and watched the queen drink medicine.

"Is the canonization ceremony for Concubine Shu starting soon?" the queen said weakly.

"Your health is important, drink the medicine quickly." The eldest princess personally handed a small spoonful of the medicine to the queen's mouth.

The queen didn't buy it this time and pushed the eldest princess directly away.

She sighed, "Now that the harem almost has the surname Zhou Yingxue, it is no longer what it was when His Majesty first ascended the throne. As the eldest princess, I am afraid that I have to act based on the face of the imperial concubine, right? Tomorrow Can you still enter the palace?"

The eldest princess put the medicine bowl aside and comforted the queen, saying, "Don't think too much, she is just a noble concubine, and you are the middle palace."

"Mother, do you think I am happy sitting in the back seat?" The queen could feel that Emperor Yinde already knew about Jingchen, so there was nothing to avoid in front of the eldest princess.

After all, she wanted to marry Jingchen, and the eldest princess knew it.

"I know who made me bedridden. It was you. During His Majesty's Longevity Festival, you spied on me and found out that I was still in contact with Jingchen. So this time, in order to prevent His Majesty from finding out, for your eldest princess You don’t hesitate to attack your own daughter because of your shame.”

"Have you seen the result? Zhou Yingxue is about to ride on you and me. Do you regret it?"

This is the second time the queen has been disrespectful to her mother.

The first time was when she received the decree from the late emperor to marry her and Emperor Yinde.

The eldest princess tried her best to calm herself down and tried to hold the queen's hand, but the queen threw her away.

"Mother, I have been married to Shen Yuchen for eight years, and I met Jingchen in private just once. Are you going to kill me?"

"Yue'er, I definitely don't mean that. I just don't want you to make things worse, so..."

Before the eldest princess finished speaking, the queen answered, "This is not good for you, and it is not good for Shen Yuchen."

"But what did I do wrong? Do I deserve to die like that?"

Tears kept running down the queen's cheeks. She always felt that she had sacrificed too much.

The eldest princess was also troubled. After all, she failed to protect her only daughter and made her suffer in the harem.

"Is this situation good for you, dad, and the Prime Minister's Mansion?"

The eldest princess pursed her lips, with tears in her eyes, unable to say a word.

"Peihua, Yang Quan." The queen called to the opposite side, and the two people guarding the outside immediately bowed and entered.

"The Queen Mother."

The queen directly ordered, "Yang Quan, the eldest princess is not feeling well. Immediately arrange a carriage to send the eldest princess back to the palace. If you have nothing to do recently, please do not enter the palace. By the way, I will pass on my decree and ask Concubine Shu to come to Fengyi Palace to give me a message." Kowtow to express gratitude and listen to my teachings, otherwise she will be dishonest and dishonest."

"Peihua, help me stand up and help me change clothes and make up."

"Yue'er, you're still sick." The eldest princess stepped forward and held down the queen, preventing her from getting up. "I'm going to beg your Majesty, please take care of your body."

The eldest princess held the queen's hand, and a hot tear fell on the back of the queen's hand. What should she do?

"Yang Quan." The queen glared at Yang Quan before Yang Quan dared to step forward and said, "Your Highness, the eldest princess, please invite me."
