"Yesterday, King Udamahuo and his sister came to the palace. The prince was so happy that he drank two more cups. When you came to the palace today, the prince had not yet gotten up." Shen Yangui said.

"I'm afraid this is inappropriate." Jiang Congrong shook his head. "Lu is a cautious person. If I don't see him this time, he will let me enter the palace again until I see him."

"Then come in. Doesn't your uncle want to come to the palace to see me more often?"

Shen Yangui smiled slightly, "Don't worry about an excuse to go to the palace. My mother is in the Imperial Hospital. You can come to see my sister and visit my niece and the little princess on the way. If all else fails, I will call Yuanyuan to the palace and you can take her back. It won't be a problem."

"Is it just going to drag on like this?"

"Just keep dragging it out like this." Shen Yangui affirmed, "If the enemy doesn't move, I won't move."

Now the old fox is in the dark and they are in the light. If they act rashly, they will be easily led by the nose.

It’s better to relax and finish the things at hand first.

After all, they are the ones who want to rebel, and they are also the ones who are anxious to have children. If the old fox can't help himself, he will naturally show his true colors.

Jiang Congrong knew that the more he knew, the greater the risk of letting something slip.

He didn't ask any more questions and just stood up and said goodbye when he received the order.

"If he has any ideas later, I will go to the palace and tell the prince and princess."

"Uncle goes to the palace too frequently, which makes them suspicious. The Princess's Mansion is very safe. If it is not urgent, uncle can just write a letter and ask mother to bring it to the palace."

It's a rare day off, so I hide in the palace because I don't want to be disturbed.

Mo Chengying wanted her uncle to come to the palace less often and not disturb their married life.

Jiang Congrong did not understand the hidden meaning. He said seriously:

"I understand that this is the Imperial Palace, not some farmyard. How can you just walk in casually?"

Jiang Peirong said that the streets were very lively these days, so she coaxed Yuanyuan back.

Qingshuang and Poshan were granted permission not to be on duty these days, and they went out of the palace to play.

Chunqi Xia'an and Qianfan Wanchun were all standing a few steps away, with their backs to the pavilion.

The tea in the pavilion was steaming, and Mo Chengying was sitting in front of Shen Yangui's soft human chair.

The two combined the information from the two banquets and their previous lives to further analyze several suspicious persons, and the scope of the old fox was narrowed down again.

In fact, they already had an idea in mind, but they had to wait until he showed his true colors before they could catch him in one fell swoop.

Mo Chengying happily thought:

"The court will be opened after the 15th. Before that, we still have a few days to live in peace."

"Where can I find a peaceful life?"

Shen Yangui counted on his fingers and told him:

"The family letters from Qi and Li have been sent to Beijing. Zheng Jinfu and Fang Ting have already sent their visiting cards. Cheng Yijin lived up to expectations and was able to participate in this year's Spring Festival. She is also in Beijing. I also want to see her in the first month of the year. In addition, the case of the Duke Su's Mansion has been decided, and Song Xiangyi has made an indelible contribution..."

"You want to reward her?"

Shen Yangui did not answer directly, "Lin'an believes that we should beat drums and gongs to announce it to the world, so that all women in the world know Song Xiangyi's role model. If they encounter similar injustices in the future, they can bravely resist, and I, the princess, will support them."

This method may seem to please the people, but it is not advisable in the overall situation.

Mo Chengying didn't rush to give instructions, and asked, "Then what does my majesty mean?"

Shen Yangui leaned into his arms and said helplessly:

"I also want to reward Song Xiangyi, but her contribution must be buried."

"It's already difficult for women in the world to divorce. If others knew that Song Xiangyi had a trick up her sleeve and added insult to injury after the divorce, putting her husband's family to death, I'm afraid no woman would divorce in the future."

"Huh? No women getting divorced?" Mo Chengying asked.

"There is no divorce, only illness, disappearance, and madness..."

Even if it doesn't come to the point of divorce, with the incident with Song Xiangyi in the past, other women will be guarded against by their husband's family after they get married, and their lives will be very difficult.

In this era, most women will eventually have to rely on men to live.

Shen Yangui cannot block the escape route of all women in the world just to praise Song Xiangyi.

You can't offend all the men in the world for the sake of the Song family.

"You are worthy of being my wife. You are thoughtful and considerate. As a husband, I am ashamed of myself."

Mo Chengying gave her a big kiss on the face.

Although he knew that there was no one around, he was not in the room after all. The smacking sound was too loud. Shen Yangui subconsciously glanced at the figure standing at the entrance of the pavilion in front of him and pushed him angrily.

"It's a pity that she was confined to the inner chambers last year and did not participate in the women's imperial examination. Otherwise, there would be other ways to reward her."

"The emperor is thoughtful and Song is talented. There will always be a chance to reward her. There is no need to rush."

"Yes, there is no rush. We should find a skilled craftsman to open the wooden block. I am really curious about what treasure is hidden inside."

If Shen Yangui had not been worried about damaging something inside, he would have resorted to violent dismantling methods yesterday.

"There's no rush then."

"What's the hurry?"

Mo Chengying held her hand and said, "Your Majesty is always worrying about others. Shouldn't you also spend some time worrying about me?"

"How does your husband need your wife to worry about you?"

"Just don't worry."

"Ok?"

"The bathroom next to the Pepper Room is newly built."

Shen Yangui finally responded to the previous sentence, "Who wants to be in the bathroom with you in broad daylight... Ahem, let's go to the bathroom."

"Your thoughts are not pure right now." Mo Chengying turned the tables and said, "You should go soak in the pond and get rid of the filth."

Shen Yangui: “…” He has the nerve to say that?

The bathroom in the Pepper Room was newly built with heavy curtains. The bathing pool was three meters square, and the stones used to build the pool were hot spring stones transported back from the hot springs in the suburbs of Beijing. They were smooth and shiny.

Although the pool water is not at a constant temperature all year round, it can be heated at any time.

You won’t feel cold no matter how long you soak in the water in winter.

When they arrived, the pool was already filled with hot water and the whole bathroom was filled with steam.

There was a charcoal basin in the hall for heating, and two small windows in a remote place for ventilation.

The layers of red curtains sway in the wind, giving off a charming vibe; white mist curls over the pond, making the figures vaguely visible.

The hot soup hit the stone wall with a slapping sound.

Water flows across the pond.

The tray floated slightly and moved in a small range front, back, left and right. The cups, plates, and bowls on the tray could hardly stand still, and they bumped into and hit each other intermittently and regularly.

As the flow of water increases, the floating amplitude of the pallet increases.

The golden high-footed double-handled cup fell over, and the full cup of mellow wine fell from a great height and merged with the flowing water on the ground.

The tray's center of gravity was unbalanced, and the porcelain plate fell to the ground with a loud clatter.

A white hand came out of the water just in time, grabbed the edge of the vermilion lacquer, and pulled the tray back little by little.

The wind outside the window was a little stronger. Shen Yangui looked up at the curtains and felt that it hurt his eyes and the vision became more and more blurry.

It was not known whether it was condensation of mist or sweat on her face, but beads of beads, small and large, fell down her cheeks.

The voice coming out became increasingly hoarse.

The bones in the hand holding the tray became more and more obvious, and suddenly the bones weakened, she loosened her grip, and the tray fell to the ground.

With a splash, the lotus emerged from the water.

Mo Chengying picked her up and she held his head with both hands.

When one mountain is swallowed, another mountain becomes higher.

Her long black hair was half-buckled and wet with water, splashing on her body from time to time.

“Patta, patta…”

Hot water dripped hurriedly down the table, and the ground was littered with broken porcelain cups and bowls, making a mess.

Shen Qingyue lost her temper again at home.
