Traveling through ancient times, I married an ugly brother

Chen Linlin snorted coldly when she heard the news from the palace, and said bitterly: Why didn't you think about me more when you wanted to give your husband a concubine? Fortunately, your husband didn't agree, and I heard that he had a big fight with his mother. Woolen cloth.

Hmph, it deserves it, it's what I did.

Obviously, Chen Linlin already held a grudge against the Queen.

When Chen Linlin procrastinated to the point where she could no longer procrastinate, she came to the empress' bedroom.

After seeing the empress, the empress dragged her to sit beside her.

The queen patted her hand lightly, and said: "Are you still blaming your mother for taking a concubine for Shuo'er?" The queen didn't say anything of promise, and said straight to the point.

Chen Linlin hurriedly said in panic, "My daughter-in-law doesn't dare."

"The queen mother knows that you are angry in your heart. The queen mother does not blame you. This matter is something that the queen mother did not do well. Don't take it to your heart."

The queen spoke soft words to Chen Linlin.

"Mother."

"The queen mother is also a person who has been there, so of course she understands, who would be willing to share her husband with others?" Speaking of this, the queen changed the subject, "But Linlin, I treat you as my own daughter, so I will tell you something." Sincerely, I gave Shuo Er a concubine not because I was dissatisfied with you, but because of your future plans." The queen said with a earnest look.

"Queen, what do you say?" Chen Linlin asked in confusion.

"You know that Shuo'er is the eldest son. When the crown prince was not appointed before, the voices were the loudest. However, since the fourth child had a son, these voices have decreased by more than half. If Shuo'er can do it, alas, count Let's not mention him, Linlin, you have been married to Shuo'er for a long time, and the queen mother will not hide it from you. The infighting in this palace is very scary. If Shuo'er can't sit in that position, do you think you, What will happen to me, Shuo'er." The empress whispered to Chen Linlin.

When Chen Linlin heard this, "Hey, what did you say?" Her little hands were frightened cold by the empress. Although she knew that her husband wanted that position, she never thought about what would happen if she didn't get it.

"But the other princes?" Chen Linlin wanted to ask, would the lives of the other princes be lost?

The queen sighed and said, "Silly Linlin, do you think anyone is qualified to compete for that position? Except for Shuo'er who has the strength to compete, no one else is even qualified to compete. Since they are not qualified, who would care about it?" them."

Chen Linlin understood the Queen's words at this moment, she was only dangerous because she was qualified.

"Then, queen mother, we." Chen Linlin was frightened by the queen for a moment.

Don't worry, as long as Shuo'er has a son, his supporters will naturally increase, and it is not impossible to fight for that position at that time. If Shuo'er becomes the emperor in the future, then you will be the queen. Don't you want to be above ten thousand people?

These words were whispered by the queen in Chen Linlin's ear.

Chen Linlin was actually not very happy. If she had to share husband and wife with others after becoming a queen, she would rather not do it, but she couldn't say this directly.

Chen Linlin fell silent for a while, and the queen didn't push her too hard, so this topic ended here.

The two chatted about other things, but the atmosphere eased a lot, and most of Chen Linlin's resentment towards the queen disappeared.

Then it was the second day of the Lunar New Year, and Chen Linlin returned to her natal home.

When Chen Sihao saw her, he looked behind her, then frowned and said, "Why didn't you see brother-in-law, isn't he coming this year?"

Chen Sihao had just come back from the countryside, so he didn't know that since she married the First Prince, the number of times he accompanied him home was very few, and now he couldn't even see her.

Chen Linlin found an excuse for Zhu Xuanshuo and changed the subject.

Although Chen Sihao felt strange, he didn't ask carefully, but he kept this matter in his heart.

Mother Chen also complained a few words. She only met her son-in-law once when her daughter was getting married, and she never had a chance to see her son-in-law again.

However, the mother naturally wouldn't say these things would make things difficult for her daughter, so she let her change the subject.

The Shen family was also very quiet on this day.

Brothers, sisters-in-law and children have all left, and they are the only ones left.

Because on this day, all the daughters-in-law returned home, but Jiang Liu had no family to return to. Shen Zhangjun was afraid that he would be in a bad mood, so he took Jiang Liu to play mahjong for a day.

How could Jiang Liu fail to see his intentions, but he didn't expose it, he enjoyed that Shen Changjun cared about his thoughts all the time.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Fuying County has a lantern riddle guessing activity every year. At this time in previous years, they are all packing their bags and getting ready.

Back to Beijing the next day.

But this year, Shen Fengwu and Shen Yun don't know where they heard about it. It is said that Fuying County held a huge lantern riddle party this year. The lanterns in this lantern riddle party are made of many master craftsmen who are known as skillful hands. Tie, very delicate and beautiful.

So the two pestered Shen Changjun to go to the lantern riddles.

Shen Changjun has always been used to children, since he wants to go shopping, let's go.

Hearing that Shen Changjun is going to take the children to play lantern riddles, I am really interested, but it is not the whole family.

Shen Changjun's family, fourth brother's family, and the rest are a group of children.

My elder brother, my sister-in-law, my father, Mr. He, and all of them did not go.

A group of people came to the lantern riddles meeting, not to mention, looking at a sea of ​​lights from a distance, it was very beautiful.

It was the first time for Shen Changjun to see so many lanterns, not only in quantity, but also in variety. All kinds of lanterns made each of them dizzy.

In the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, in addition to the lantern riddles, there are also some private lantern riddles with prizes.

Naturally, Shen Fengwu and Shen Yun didn't like this kind of small lantern riddles.

When they arrived, the Lantern Riddles Conference was about to begin.

If you want to participate in the Lantern Riddles Conference, you need to pay five taels of silver. Because there are too many people guessing lantern riddles, a threshold of five taels of silver is set.

Even so, there are still a lot of people signing up. The winner of the Lantern Riddles Contest will receive a prize of 100 taels. Besides the bonus, a lantern will also be given. This lantern is the most beautiful one tonight. However, what does this lantern look like? It can't be announced yet, and it will only be revealed after the game is over.

Shen Changjun naturally wanted to sign up, and after paying five taels of silver, he was assigned to the team of contestants. Fortunately, his family members could also be by his side.

Those who pay the money will get three things, the board, the rag, and the pen.

The wooden board is used for writing, and the rag is used for wiping. Finally, he looked at this pen. When Shen Changjun saw this pen, he was immediately happy. Isn't this the eyebrow pencil they produced.

When the conference started, Shen Changjun looked around at the contestants, not to mention a thousand, there were several hundred, and most of them were scholars.

The first round is a knockout round, and only those who answer correctly can stay. There are 50 people in a group, and there are two judges in each group.

The host in front began to come up with questions. The first question is, sitting is also lying down, standing is also lying down, walking is also lying down, lying down is also lying down, guess an animal.

Shen Changjun knew that the answer was a snake, so he wrote the snake on the wooden board.

Because the first questions were relatively simple, the time given was not long, and it took almost ten seconds to lift the wooden board.

Shen Changjun glanced at their group, and really didn't answer.

The second question, sitting is also sitting, standing is also sitting, walking is also sitting, lying is also sitting.

It was still ten seconds, and Shen Changjun naturally answered.

In this way, the topic became more and more difficult, and the number of people became smaller and smaller, and now there are only fifteen people left.

No.20 has eight questions, a knife, floats in the water, has eyes, no eyebrows, hits an animal.

No.40 questions, if there is wind, there will be no wind, if there is no wind, there will be wind.

Now there are only three people left.

Shen Fengwu and Shen Yun sat beside them nervously, their little hands clenched into fists one by one, and they secretly exerted force.

This question is very difficult. He is tall and thin, with sores all over his body. He often wears green clothes, but his surname is Huang.

The corner of Shen Changjun's mouth curled up, and he wrote the word "cucumber".

Another person was eliminated.

In the end it's a duel between the two.

When spring comes, butterflies fly to the east, typing a word.

This time, Shen Changjun thought for a longer time, looked at the other party, and the other party was also thinking.

In a flash of inspiration, Shen Changjun wrote the word "stupid" on the wooden board.

Thus, Shen Changjun won.

Both Shen Fengwu and Shen Yun stood up and rowed their hands: "That's great, Daddy, we won."

The host who presided over the meeting also came to congratulate them.

After complimenting each other, the No.1 lantern was revealed. It turned out to be a big rooster, and this year is the year of the next year.

The children were satisfied with the lanterns. This meeting was really time-consuming and brain-intensive.

It was getting late, just in time, and I went home with a lantern, so I couldn't see the road.

In addition to the rooster lantern, Shen Changjun bought another lantern for everyone else, even Jiang Liu had a share.

Pedestrians walked home with lanterns in their hands. There was no donkey cart tonight. There were too many people and the donkeys couldn’t get in. Moreover, if they were driving donkeys, they had to find a place for the donkeys to park. I walked.

When I got home, it was getting dark, Father Shen, Mrs. He and others hadn't rested yet, and the whole family was waiting for them to come back.

Father Shen and Mrs. He breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Shen Changjun, and told them to rest early, and they had to go on the road tomorrow, so they went back to the room after speaking.

Shen Changjun and Jiang Liu took the children to wash up, and went back to bed.

The next morning, the Shen family woke up early, ready to set off for the capital.

Shen's father and He's are both old, and they may not be able to last a few times running at both ends like this.

Call Shen Ziqian, then go to Jindu Mansion to pick up Zhang Tong's family, and then officially set off for the capital.

The pedestrians were mighty, and they arrived in the capital smoothly all the way.

When the Shen family opened the yard, they found that the gate was open.

Father Shen said to Mother He: "Old woman, didn't you lock the courtyard door?"

Mother He was speechless for a while, she remembered that she locked the courtyard door when she left, but she was not convincing at all in front of the wide open courtyard door, which made her a little uncertain, did she really forget locked.
