After the queen finished speaking, the nanny looked at the master's frowning expression and felt puzzled. She asked doubtfully: "What did the Marquis of Ning'an write in the letter that caused the empress to be in such embarrassment?"

After the nanny asked, the queen sighed, waved her hand and asked all the palace attendants to retreat, leaving only the close nanny to serve around her. Then she said: "The Marquis of Ning'an specially sent a letter to you. The palace mentioned the matter of his youngest daughter. The words in the letter seemed to be quite dissatisfied with Qi Zhen's actions, and asked the palace to make the decision to release Miss Shen back home."

After saying these words, Grandma also frowned.

"Well, what does Marquis Ning'an mean? There are two girls in the family, one will be a concubine and the other will be a concubine. What is he dissatisfied with?" Mammy became even more confused and confused.

The queen raised her eyes to look at her mother, and shook her head.

This mama may not understand, but the queen herself can somewhat understand what Shen Luan means.

If there was really one concubine and one concubine, even if there was some concern about the two women working together with one husband, Shen Luan would not risk offending Qi Zhen by asking for her.

Since he opened his mouth, he must have learned from Qi Zhen that the second girl of the Shen family has no chance of being placed in the harem.

The queen thought about this and pinched her eyebrows in annoyance.

In fact, the Queen also probed Qi Zhen's intentions in the past two days, and Qi Zhen made it almost clear that he did not intend to give the second girl Shen the position.

The queen was really unsure of her son's thoughts. If he didn't like him, why would he insist on bringing him into the palace and even keeping him in the famous concubine's palace in Guanyue Tower.

But if he likes it, he refuses to give him any status or status, thus trapping him in the palace with no name or status.

There is also the matter of the bracelet. I wonder if the Marquis of Ning'an ever knew about it.

The troublesome things Qi Zhen did were even hateful to her as a mother. How could a girl not resent him? Besides, Miss Shen Er was not a master who could endure the grievances and live a bare life.

Qi Zhen doesn't give the girl a name, and she has old grudges from the past. I'm afraid Miss Shen Er still has something to deal with.

Qi Zhen's attitude towards this troubled girl was unclear, so the queen felt that Shen Linglong was not suitable to stay in the palace.

She originally thought that after the assassination and poisoning, Qi Zhen would probably not bring Shen Linglong into the palace, but she did anyway.

Shen Luan asked the queen to make the decision, but the queen herself knew that this son had not been raised by her since he was a child, and his temper was extremely domineering. She might not be able to listen to the mother's advice. If she wanted to send Shen Linglong out of the palace, she would definitely do it. It is impossible to send her back to her mother's house as Shen Luan said in her letter.

If Shen Linglong is sent back to the Ning'an Marquis' Mansion, Qi Zhen will definitely not agree to it after knowing it. Then, I am afraid that all the trouble will be in vain in the end.

Before Shen Luan sent this letter, the Queen was only prepared to act according to the arrangements for the past few days, think of a way to avoid Qi Zhen's eyes, and just send the person out. As for the Shen family, the Queen had no intention of doing so. Breathable.

Originally, in the Queen's view, even if the second lady of the Shen family, who was born as a concubine, received some favors, she would not be taken too seriously by the Ning'an Marquis Mansion. Excessive dissatisfaction.

But when Shen Luan's letter came, the queen was a little embarrassed.

If you really didn't care, you wouldn't have written a letter specifically to ask for your decision.

Although the second girl of the Shen family was born as a concubine, she should have been extremely favored. If she suddenly disappeared or died, I am afraid Shen Luan would not let it go.

Thinking of this, the queen sighed again and again, and then thought of the broken mirror and broken jade she saw in the East Palace that day. Her eyes were tangled for a while, and then she spoke again after a long while: "That's it, send a message to Shen Luan, what does he mean? I understand that Miss Shen Er will not stay in the palace. Just let him wait for the news. Remember to remind him that no matter what news he gets in a few days, don’t rush into the palace. I have my own arrangements. In addition, let him The servants serving in Guanyue Tower have made preparations earlier. In a few days, I will have something to give you. Remember to tell them to keep their mouth shut and be more careful when obeying orders, so as not to reach the ears of the prince."

As soon as he finished speaking, a voice sounded outside the hall.

It was the eunuch in charge of the palace who was waiting outside the palace.

After receiving the order, Mammy retired to do some work, and the Queen announced the entry of the general eunuch.

The general eunuch heard the Queen's announcement and secretly wiped his sweat before stepping in.

The general eunuch and the Ministry of Rites are responsible for organizing the enthronement ceremony and the empress conferment ceremony. Qizhen means that the two ceremonies are held together, and Chaozhong means that they are held together because they are inconsistent with the ancestral system and are not in line with etiquette. Under the dispute between the two, the courtiers thought Ask the queen what she means.

It was not appropriate for officials of the Ministry of Rites to set foot in the harem, so the general eunuch was asked to ask the Queen what she wanted.

The eunuch bowed his head and stepped into the inner hall, kowtowed hurriedly and said: "This servant is going to greet the empress. The Ministry of Rites is organizing the enthronement ceremony. Your Highness the Crown Prince meant that the two ceremonies should be held together. The officials in the Ministry of Rites reported that it was inconsistent with the etiquette, and added the ceremony of conferring the title of queen. I'm afraid it's inevitable that there will be some shortcomings in such a hasty event. Now that the court has no decision, the courtiers are thinking of asking the Queen for some advice."

After all, Shen Qinliu was the fiancée that the queen had personally chosen for Qi Zhen, and the courtiers were afraid that their lack of etiquette would offend the new queen and the future queen mother.

But after the queen heard this, she just said casually: "Let's do it according to the prince's wishes. I have a severe headache. I have nothing else to do, so I'll just step back and do what I'm told."

Shen Qinliu was raised in the Queen's Palace when she was young, and she was really close to the Queen. However, Mrs. Ning'an Hou's plan to get married was a bad thing for the Queen.

There are always distances between people, so what about the prospective daughter-in-law whom you have raised for many years? After all, she is not as good as your biological son.

Ning'an Hou's mother humiliated Qi Zhen by exchanging marriages, so the queen never thought of giving much dignity to the queen's legitimate daughter. If Qi Zhen hadn't insisted on asking Shen Qinliu to take the post, the queen would not have even planned to take Ning'an. The legitimate daughter of the Hou family enters the palace.

It was Qi Zhen who had already decided that Shen Qin would be granted the title of Liu Feng, so the queen had no choice but to follow his wishes and issue the edict.

Thinking of this, the queen felt helpless and could only comfort herself by saying that Qi Zhen's wish was fulfilled after all. He only wanted the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Ning'an, so she would marry her for his son. As for the concubine of the Marquis' mansion, she had ascended the throne. On the day of the grand ceremony, it was the most suitable time to send people out of the palace.

The general eunuch retreated outside the palace and looked back at the inner palace, thinking that in a few days, the master of the inner palace would be replaced by the next generation.

The daughter-in-law of the Shen family is very lucky. Nanyuan has not experienced the pain at all. Now that the prince has ascended the throne, he will enter the palace to enjoy the dignity of the queen.

The general eunuch raised his eyes and looked in the direction of Guanyue Tower, thinking, he just felt sorry for the concubine of the Shen family. I heard that after three years of hard work in Nanyuan, she didn't even have a name, she was just anonymous.

He was raised in the palace without any share.

It is said that he is favored, but it is not clear whether this so-called "favor", which has neither heirs nor fame, is a blessing or a sin.

The eunuch thought so, shook his head, sighed, and looked away from the direction of Guanyue Tower.

In the Guanyue Tower not far away, the imperial physician had just performed a pulse check on Linglong.

The heater in the hall was always burning, and the room was not cold at all. Linglong was tightly wrapped in quilt, closed her eyes and fell asleep on the bed.

Qi Zhen saw Linglong falling asleep as soon as he touched the bed. After the imperial doctor took his pulse, he motioned to the imperial doctor to follow him out.

The two of them left the inner hall one after another. Qi Zhen signaled the servant to close the door. After walking a little further, he asked: "What's wrong with her body? Why can't she sleep with nightmares day and night? It's just a little cold.

It's been this long and it still hasn't healed."

Hearing this, the imperial doctor glanced at the closed door of the palace, secretly wiped his sweat, and replied: "This girl may have suffered a serious illness when she was young, and she suffered from chills. She has not taken good care of her over the years, so her health has deteriorated

If you are deficient, it will be extremely difficult to recover from the cold. I will prescribe some mild decoction.

, I nursed back the girl's body, and I thought that in a few days, she would gradually get better. As for the dream, I looked at the girl's pulse, and it seemed that she was depressed. The dream, after all, is still a heart disease, if it can be avoided

When you are worried and calm, you will naturally stop having nightmares day and night."

After the doctor finished speaking, Qi Zhen's frown did not relax even half an inch, but instead tightened it even more.

Heart disease? This is more difficult to cure than physical pain. Even if Qi Zhen could vaguely guess what Shen Linglong's heart disease was, he could not eradicate it for her.

His eyes were heavy, he pursed his lips, and after a while, he said: "During this period, you have taken good care of the girl's health. You have to ask Ping Anmai to report back to the imperial palace every day."

The imperial doctor was slightly shocked when he heard this, and thought to himself, this Miss Shen is quite favored.

Now that he is about to ascend the throne, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very busy with political affairs, and he has to go to the imperial palace to report the condition of Miss Shen the next day.

After thinking about it for a moment, I realized that I was extremely concerned about it and bowed my head in response.

After Qi Zhen gave his instructions, he looked back at Guanyue Tower, then stepped down the palace tower and walked towards the Imperial Palace.

Just when Qi Zhen left Guanyue Tower, Linglong, who had just fallen asleep, woke up again.

When the palace attendants in the palace saw her waking up from her dream, they remembered Qi Zhen's instructions and hurriedly went to inquire and check.

Linglong woke up in confusion, only to realize that her eyes were filled with blood.

She clearly realized that she was not in a dream, and that she was awake, but her eyes were filled with blood.

The footsteps of the palace people approaching in a hurry fell on Linglong's ears, but they seemed to be the clatter of hoofs under Luoyang City. She was filled with horror, as if she were encountering Yama.

Linglong was horrified. As soon as the palace man touched her, she was pushed away violently.

This push not only pushed away the palace man, but also knocked Linglong herself off the bed.

The floor tiles were cold and harsh, and Linglong's already injured leg was hit again.

The severe pain was unbearable, and Linglong's consciousness was completely awakened.

Tears of pain overflowed from his eyes, and the absurd blood color in front of his eyes completely faded.

Linglong bit her lip and hugged her knees, leaning helplessly on the edge of the bed. Qi Zhen's voice in her dream - "Linglong" - passed through her mind over and over again.
