Palace Prisoner

Chapter 17 Famous

Shen Sirong tried his best to stabilize himself, for fear that he would be discouraged if he relaxed.

Xiao Yuanfeng clenched the wine glass in his hand for fear of being nervous. Xiao Yuanqi's face also cooled down, and even he couldn't say why.

Shen Sirong looked at the emperor. This was the first time she saw Yongkang Emperor Xiao Ze praised by the people. His hair was white and the grooves between his facial features were very deep, which added some of his majesty.

Xiao Ze also let her look at it. Shen Sirong's eyes were deep and quiet, not ignorant and pure, but a kind of pure and peaceful silence.

From a song "Xiao Ran Sigh", Xiao Ze heard that Shen Sirong was different. He wanted to see whether her difference was true or not. Later, Shen Sirong asked him why he chose her. Xiao Ze replied that even if people's eyes could lie, those lights could not be faked.

"What's your name?"

"My daughter Shen Sirong will see the emperor." Her voice is neither humble nor loud, and there is no fear of him or deliberate pretentious. It makes people feel comfortable, but this attitude is that everyone takes a breath. Even many people held the attitude of watching jokes, and Xiao Ze quietly took everyone's reaction.

Then Xiao Ze smiled and praised a few words to let Shen Sirong go back to his seat. Shen Sirong steadily returned to the case and sat down a few times ago. Every step was very laborious. Her back was already wet. I don't know if it was her illusion. She just saw a murderous intention in the emperor's eyes.

As soon as she sat down, Wang Shi looked at her deeply. Shen Sirong lowered her head humbly. When Wang Shi turned around, she raised her face. Shen Sirong naturally knew that it was another disturbance when she returned home today. Shen Siyi looked at her with resentment, the corners of her mouth, and finally said nothing.

The banquet lasted for a short time and then dispersed. Prince Xiao Yuanqi did not mention the selection of concubines from beginning to end, which satisfied everyone's appetite. Naturally, he did not dare to say anything at present. After sending the emperor and others away, the internal supervisors took them out of the palace one by one.

Shufei's birthday today, but because Xiao Ze had state affairs, she asked Xiao Yuanfeng to accompany her in the palace today. Although Shufei was unhappy, she still smiled and thanked her kindness.

Xiao Ze came out of Zilan Palace, and Shufei's face was full of loss. When she looked at Xiao Yuanfeng beside her, her face looked a little better. Shufei took Xiao Yuanfeng to sit down, and Xiao Yuanfeng straightened up and knelt down before he sat down.

"What are you doing?" Concubine Shu quickly pulled him up, and Xiao Yuanfeng took Concubine Shu's hand: "Mother, today's Miss Shen Sirong is the person in my heart. Please do it."

After saying that, Xiao Yuanfeng kowtowed heavily, and the sound of her head touching the ground was particularly distressing to Shufei. She thought that Miss Shen was also a good talent.

"Your mother promised you earlier, but don't you believe it?" Concubine Shu said and picked up Xiao Yuanfeng: "As soon as the prince's selection of concubines is over, I will ask your father to order her to be your side concubine. How about it?"

"The side concubine?" Xiao Yuanfeng never thought that Shufei was thinking about it. His heart was full of puzzlement.

"Mother concubine, Shen Zhongcheng is a second-grade official. She is naturally qualified to be my concubine." Xiao Yuanfeng didn't know why he wanted to fight for it, but he vaguely felt that she should not be wronged.

Xiao Ze's eyes lit up and began to draw up the purpose.

Xiao Yuanqi left the Shangyang Palace. On the way back to the East Palace, he sent the servant to walk alone. His mind was full of his father's last words. How about Shen Sirong... Does his father like her? It seemed that the scene of meeting in the study that day appeared in front of him. He shook his head and was a little surprised that he would think of her. He raised his face against the light, and his perfect side face evoked touching twists and turns.

At this time, the moonlight is thick.

......

On the carriage, Wang Shi took a look at Shen Sirong and hummed coldly, "I really didn't know you could play the piano?"

"Yes. I seem to remember that you haven't even finished learning fingering. Shen Siyi raised her eyebrows sourly and said.

Shen Sirong did not answer. She knew that no matter what she said now, it would only provoke a bigger dispute, so not opening her mouth was the best answer.

"Good Shen Sirong, how dare you hide it from me..." Wang Shi shouted harshly.

Wang's repeated questioning was in his ear. Shen Sirong saw that he could not avoid it, so he had to answer softly, "Sirong dare not."

"What don't you dare?" Wang's face was a little distorted. Although Shen Sirong relieved Shen Siyi's siege today, she must have appeared in front of everyone. More importantly, Shen Siyi fell below her in this comparison.

Shen Siyi added jealousy and said, "Mom, she has such skills today. She must have invited her husband to teach her in private, just waiting for this day to suppress me."

Wang's chest seemed to be burning. He raised his hand and greeted Shen Sirong's face. When Shen Sirong saw Wang's hand raised, he hid back, but then he thought about it and greeted him again.

With a "pop", Shen Sirong was firmly hit. His left face was burning hot, but Shen Sirong didn't say a word.

The atmosphere in the car was a little heavy. As soon as the carriage stopped, Wang took the lead. Shen Sirong knew that she was rushing to sue. She got out of the car in no hurry. The wet nurse and freehandwriting had been worried about her and rushed up when they saw her come back.

"Miss, madam..." The wet nurse asked worriedly. Wang Shi's face was full of anger when she just got out of the car. It must have been Shen Sirong who suffered her anger.

Ah? Miss, what's wrong with you?" The freehand intention shouted, and the wet nurse found that Shen Sirong had a wound on her face. Through the moonlight, five fingerprints were faintly visible on her swollen face.

Shen Sirong wanted to comfort them with a smile, but as soon as he moved the corners of his mouth, there was a pain.

"You go back to Xiaoyuan first. I'm going to the main hall." After saying that, he walked to the main hall.

The wet nurse told her to stay and wait for Shen Sirong to go back to Xiaoyuan to prepare medicine first.

In the main hall, Wang was sitting angrily, and Shen Shiyan stood in the middle of the hall with a straight face. Shen Siyi stood beside Wang and turned her back when she saw Shen Sirong coming in and pouted.

"Dad, mother." Shen Sirong did not step forward after bending his knees.

Shen Shiyan looked at her and saw the wound on her face. He looked at Wang in a low voice with an obviously suppressed anger: "What's going on?"

Wang rarely saw Shen Shiyan get angry. At this time, he was shocked by his attitude and immediately felt wronged, and his arrogant tone lost his consistent dignified tone: "What's wrong? I hit it."

Wang would not talk to Shen Shi like this, but today she thought that the woman's daughter compared Shen Siyi in front of so many people, and the fire in her heart could not be controlled at all.
