1257, together
The Empress Dowager invited me, and in front of the emperor. Whether it was sincere or false, Xu Shu could only respond. The Empress Dowager was in love with her and should follow her instructions carefully. She would come to pay tribute to the Empress Dowager often in the future!
Xu Shu has always been very accustomed to her title, unlike Zhou Jin. Even though she was obviously very unfamiliar with the Empress Dowager, she could still call her grandmother, and her face was unbreakable. Even Xu Shu never called her aunt to her nominal aunt, Empress Dowager Chun'an.
The Empress Dowager didn't care much and said with a smile, "I remember you like shrimps. There is a chef here at Ai's house that makes very good shrimp dumplings. In a few days, fresh river shrimps will be delivered. The queen must come and eat them!"
Thank you, Empress Dowager!
Go, it’s getting late, you still have to go to Kunning Palace!
After leaving Cining Palace, Zhou Jin said, although the Empress Dowager showed you mostly to show me and pave the way for the Deng family, you can also use one or two. In the harem, the Empress Dowager is indeed the Empress Dowager with the most qualifications and the highest status. With her towards you, you will be much more relaxed in the palace!
More importantly, the Empress Dowager was able to suppress Empress Dowager Huixian in his identity. In some cases, Zhou Jin, as a son of man, could not refute Empress Dowager Huixian, so the Empress Dowager needed to come forward, so it would be absolutely beneficial to let the Empress Dowager look at Xu Shu.
Of course I know this, otherwise why did I try my best to please her in my early years! When Xu Shu was in the Xu family in her early years, she was indeed thanks to the favor of the Empress Dowager, which allowed her status in the Xu family to be qualitatively improved.
It seems that you have been smart since childhood! But it means that you have to do anything since childhood and have to suffer for survival since childhood. Zhou Jin feels even more distressed.
Xu Shu sighed, no matter how smart I am, what do you think? Although I am the queen and the mother of a country in this palace, I am just a nameless person. There are three big Buddhas on it. The brides of ordinary families are at most two mother-in-laws. Unlike me, there are three!
Xu Shu felt that she should be the most tragic queen in history. Although she was the most noble woman in the world, she was the lowest-ranking person in the palace at present.
Taichang Palace dare not act rashly. Cining Palace must also be close to you for the sake of the Deng family. Kunning Palace and you are your own family. Although they seem uncomfortable, they will not make things difficult for you!
Yes! Although it sounds pitiful, the palace is the most decent, and everyone is at peace! Xu Shu nodded and said, "Let's go, Empress Dowager Chun'an is still waiting!"
Among the three elders, the emperor and his wife finally went to pay homage to the late emperor's widow, Empress Dowager Chun'an, Zheng, and Xu Shu often went to Kunning Palace. The people who served in the palace were familiar faces, and Xu Shu was less restrained.
Empress Dowager Chun'an was very satisfied with the current situation. Xu Shu became the queen, which meant the victory of the Zheng family. With Xu Shu as her victory, Empress Dowager Huixian was no longer her opponent, and the Fu family was no longer the opponent of the Zheng family.
Empress Dowager Chun'an is the queen's aunt, and she is not considered the elder of the emperor's closest relatives. She has a distant relationship with the emperor, so she cannot teach the two of them as righteous elders as the Empress Dowager and Empress Dowager Huixian. She was just treated as a courtesy from them, but she focused on teaching Xu Shu.
The emperor has been sensible and talented since childhood. If Dayin had such a king, the Ai family would be worthy of the late emperor! As the central palace, the empress always put the emperor first and shared the worries and problems for the emperor, and lived up to the emperor's trust in you!
Yes, I will keep in mind the teachings of the Empress Dowager!
Queen Mother Chun'an nodded. The emperor was tired from the wedding yesterday and came to salute again early this morning. Thank you so much. Go and rest quickly. Ai's family has a few words to say to the queen!
Zhou Jin looked at Xu Shu, Xu Shu nodded slightly, and Zhou Jin left with a smile, but left a sentence, I will go to Qifeng Palace to have lunch with you!
Yes! I respectfully send you to the emperor! Xu Shufu gave a gift and watched Zhou Jin leave.
Zhou Jin walked away, and Empress Dowager Chun'an smiled and said, "It seems that the emperor loves you very much and wants to accompany you for lunch!"
Xu Shu lowered her head shyly, and Zhou Jin said this in front of Empress Dowager Chun'an, just worried that Empress Dowager Chun'an would keep her for too long, and she only used a bowl of bird's nest porridge in the morning, for fear that she would be hungry.
Queen Mother Chun'an said with satisfaction, it is best for the emperor to love you. You are the only one in the emperor's harem at the moment, so you must seize the opportunity!
Sure enough, no matter who you go to, stimulating birth is essential. Xu Shu lowered her eyebrows and responded, yes!
Only with a prince can you be considered firm in this position. The Ai family suffered a lot of losses in the hands of Concubine Shu because they had no son, and even the Zheng family could not raise their heads. You must not follow in the footsteps of the Ai family! When talking about the days when Concubine Shu could not raise their heads, Empress Dowager Chun'an thought it was deeply hated, which was her greatest shame in her life and would never be forgotten.
Now that the Empress Dowager is the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager has long disappeared without a trace as if a passing cloud is gone. It is not worth the Empress Dowager’s concern!
Yes! Empress Dowager Chun'an raised her eyebrows and vomited, and in the end it was the Ai family who won!
However, when she thought that she had tried her best to give birth to a prince and finally had to let the nephew of the late emperor ascend the throne, Empress Dowager Chun'an still felt deeply sorry. Although she was also respected as the queen mother of the new emperor after ascending the throne, she was still far behind the queen mother of Taichang Palace, as the emperor's mother, otherwise she would not be the last one among the three palaces to pay tribute today.
Now the most important thing for you is to give birth to a prince quickly and secure your position. Don’t worry about anything else. The Ai family will help you! As long as we work together, it will not be the turn of others in this palace!
Although Zhou Jin took back the phoenix seal held by the Empress Dowager Chun'an after he appointed Xu Shu as the queen, Empress Dowager Chun'an has been in charge of the harem for nearly twenty years and has a great power in the harem. If Empress Dowager Chun'an helps, it will be much more worry-free for Xu Shu, who is a newcomer.
Thank you, Empress Dowager!
The Queen Mother Chun'an nodded, and the feng shui changed. The Zheng family was suppressed by the Deng family and the Fu family for so many years. It was our Zheng family's turn to walk ahead! The Queen Mother Chun'an suddenly lowered her voice again. The royal family's descendants were thin. If you want to give birth to children as soon as possible, you must use some extraordinary means. The fragrance you made before was quite effective.
The Queen Mother Chun'an stopped when she clicked, but Xu Shu was shocked and almost broke out in a cold sweat. Unexpectedly, Queen Mother Chun'an had such thoughts. Fortunately, she had already brought back the unused incense from Queen Mother Chun'an. Otherwise, it would be hard to protect Queen Mother Chun'an would not use it secretly on Zhou Jin, which would be really bad.
