Reborn on the day of marriage! After the marriage exchange, the elder sister went crazy

A few days later, Li Jinglan received Lu Bozhou's second gift.

A dried rose flower.

Along with the roses, there was also a small note: "You are the only one who blooms four seasons a year."

The queen passed the note to everyone, her desire to show off was evident in her words, "Hurry up and help Jinglan come up with some ideas on how to respond to this."

After reading the note, Concubine Xian suggested: "The camellia flowers in the greenhouse are in full bloom. How about cutting a few and sending them to His Highness?"

While Concubine Xian was speaking, she deliberately glanced at Li Jinglan.

Li Jinglan's face blushed.

Concubine Shu shook her head: "It's not a good idea for us to send flowers when others send them. Why not send something else?"

The lives of the concubines were already boring and monotonous, and now they finally found something new to do, and they all came up to offer suggestions at once.

Some said that Li Jinglan should give her a sachet, some said that Li Jinglan should give her a piece of clothing, and some even said that she should give her a handkerchief.

Some people even picked out the best gift they thought and sent it to Li Jinglan. "I carved this chess set myself. You can use it as a gift."

"Why not give me some ink? This is the pine soot ink I made by myself. It took me three years to make it." Concubine Shu took out the ink stick she made.

Although Concubine Zheng's status was not as high as Xian's, she still spared no effort to protect her chess piece. "You only spent three years, but I spent seven years to polish the jade chess piece. The white one is Hetian jade, and the black one is Wujin Moyu."

Listening to these people's arguments, Li Jinglan could feel that their lives were really boring.

The atmosphere in the palace was also harmonious.

In the end, it was the Queen who made the final decision: "Since the items have been given out, there is no reason to take them back. Send them all to His Highness and let him choose for himself."

The concubines put down their things with smiles on their faces, and then left laughing.

Concubine Xian didn't want to leave and stayed in the Queen's palace, saying that she wanted to teach Li Jinglan how to embroider a handkerchief.

"A handkerchief is something that is close to the body, so it is best not to embroider anything too conspicuous. Just embroider some flowers or orchids or something like that, so that you don't have to look for it everywhere if you lose it."

Li Jinglan nodded, "Yes, I remember it."

The queen sat next to him, wearing glasses and looking at Lu Zhongyu's homework.

He nodded as he read it: "The handwriting is pretty good."

"It's really good. If you practice for a few more years, your calligraphy will develop some style." Chen Ji, the queen's personal eunuch, also praised in a low voice.

The queen couldn't help but talk about the past: "In the past, there was also a small study in the palace. His Majesty studied in the small study and the great scholar taught him."

"Later, the small study was given to the Prince of Jin... Ever since the Crown Prince grew up, no one has occupied the small study in the palace anymore."

The queen said this and sighed softly.

The royal family is declining.

She sincerely hopes that Li Jinglan can have more children.

Time flies.

New Year’s Eve is here.

The Crown Prince and the Crown Princess returned from the hot spring villa to spend the New Year together.

When the Crown Princess came to pay a visit to the Queen, the Queen did not allow her to see Li Jinglan.

When the Crown Princess was about to leave, she couldn't help but mention Li Jinglan: "My daughter-in-law heard at the Hot Spring Villa that Uncle Wang's long-lost brother has been found. I heard that my sister-in-law is also in the palace. I don't know when I can meet my brother again."

The queen smiled kindly, "Your Majesty will naturally decide on matters outside, as for matters in the palace..." Then she smiled slightly, "How is the prince's health now?"

Hearing that the Queen was still using the title of Crown Prince, the Crown Princess felt a little more at ease.

The prince had worshipped his ancestors in the Taimiao and issued edicts to the whole country. All civil and military officials and people across the country knew about it.

It is extremely difficult to depose the crown prince when he has done nothing wrong.

The Crown Princess frowned and said, "To answer your mother's question, Your Highness has lost a lot of weight because he has been missing your father and mother. It would be great if you could stay in the palace after the New Year to show your filial piety to your mother."

The queen picked up the tea bowl beside her and sipped the water from it with the covered bowl: "As long as you are in good health, it will be the best filial piety."

The Crown Princess did not dare to say anything more, so she stood up and said goodbye to go see the Virtuous Consort and the Shu Consort.

After coming out from Concubine Xian, the Crown Princess walked towards Concubine Shu’s palace.

"Aunt." As soon as the Crown Princess entered the palace, she threw herself on Concubine Shu's lap and sobbed softly.

"The prince's illness has become more serious recently. He not only coughs up blood but also has constipation and often faints." The princess' voice was panicked. "I don't know what to do."

"Can't the imperial physician find out what's wrong with the prince?" Upon hearing that the prince's health was so poor, Concubine Shu's face changed slightly.

The Crown Princess shed tears, "It's said to be internal heat, the doctor I consulted from the folks also said so."

Concubine Shu sighed.

The Crown Princess raised her head and pleaded, "Could you please talk to His Majesty and let the Crown Prince return to the East Palace to recuperate?"

Concubine Shu's expression suddenly changed: "Your Majesty can only decide where the prince recuperates."

"Aunt, please have mercy and talk to His Majesty. The prince really can't stand it anymore..." The Crown Princess took out a letter written in blood, "This is a letter written in blood by the prince to His Majesty."

Concubine Shu looked down at the blood letter, but her voice was cold and cold. "You just met the Queen, why didn't you give the blood letter to the Queen?"

"My mother may not be willing to help the prince." The Crown Princess bit her lip, "The only one we can rely on is my aunt."

Concubine Shu looked at the Crown Princess quietly for a while, then lowered her eyebrows and asked: "Is the East Palace pregnant?"

“……” The Crown Princess was silent for a while and shook her head.

Concubine Shu slowly stood up and said, "Please go back, Crown Princess."

The Crown Princess did not expect that her pleading would only result in these words. She was extremely anxious: "Aunt? Nephew begs you."

"Please go back, Crown Princess." Concubine Shu turned her back to the Crown Princess and never looked at her.

The Crown Princess fell to her knees with a plop, "Aunt, are you going to watch your nephew die?"

Concubine Shu sighed, "Since the founding of our dynasty, there have only been two dukes, both of whom were conferred at the founding of the country."

"Your ancestors and I have fought in the nine frontiers for four generations, and we only have one title of marquis."

"Now your father and your brother are still guarding the nine borders. Don't they know to return to the capital to enjoy their lives?" Concubine Shu turned around.

"You want me to sacrifice the lives of four generations to send you this blood letter? How can you be so cruel?"

Concubine Shu lowered her eyebrows and looked at the Crown Princess, "If you are pregnant, I can still give it a try."

"But now...Crown Princess, just accept your fate!" Concubine Shu sighed softly.

A childless prince is like a rootless duckweed.

What’s the use even if you inherit the treasure?

If you don’t have a son, who will you pass it on to?

Won't it be passed on to Lu Bozhou's descendants in the future?

Killed Lu Bozhou?

That can only be passed on to distant relatives of the royal family.

The fate of passing it on to distant relatives is even more tragic.

Such things are not unknown in history books.

The distant relative who succeeded to the throne was not only unwilling to offer sacrifices to the person who had passed on the throne to him, he also wanted to carry his own biological father to the Taimiao.

Thinking of this, Concubine Shu said softly, "Crown Princess, go back."

The Crown Princess was extremely desperate.

why?

Why is no one willing to help her?

He went to the East Palace in a daze.

Before reaching the East Palace, I saw a carriage parked outside the palace gate.

The Crown Princess got off the carriage and saw Princess Zheng at a glance.

Zheng Guo smiled and bowed, "I was just about to go to the palace to see you. I heard that you went to the Queen's palace."

This was the first person who came to pay the prince a visit when he returned for the New Year. The Crown Princess suppressed all the grief in her heart and greeted him with a smile.

"My dear sister, it's so nice of you to think of us." The Crown Princess was filled with emotion.

"If I don't think about you, who else can I think about? The prince and I have been friends since we were young."

Princess Zheng stepped forward and took the Crown Princess' arm.
