Chapter 53 How to remove the clouds

The winter is gradually moving away, making people feel more and more precious. When everything revived, Xiao Ze's illness improved strangely.

The imperial doctor can't explain the reason why Xiao Ze improved. After half a month of recuperation, Xiao Ze was able to get out of bed. Although his spirit is not as good as before, it is also great news. Xiao Yuanqi led the civil and military officials to fast for a month to repay God's kindness for Xiao Ze's improvement.

After Xiao Ze was better, Xiao Yuanqi took the initiative to exchange the rights of the prince of the country. Xiao Ze was deeply comforted and did not criticize him for his lack of energy. The next day, Xiao Yuanqi asked for another order, and Xiao Ze agreed to go to court and deal with Xiao Yuanqi with government affairs.

"I am sick. Thanks to the prince's stabilization of the court, I have carefully checked the recent memorials. The prince has handled it well, and I can rest assured in the future."

On the fourth day of Xiao Ze's court, the father of the crown princess Shen Sirong reported that some officials had been active in private recently. Xiao Ze was furious and ordered Shen Shiyan to investigate the matter deeply.

On the Dragon Throne, as soon as Xiao Ze said this, everyone knew Xiao Ze's plan, and even many people from Liwang's party began to be in danger.

Naturally, the Wang family can't let the situation develop into a bad situation and visit in private. Pulling over, threatening and tempting, he used everything and finally stabilized the turmoil of Liwang's party.

Xiao Ze made up his mind to rectify the wind of the court, and all the officials were uneasy. People with bright eyes can see that Xiao Ze is going to clean up the road for Xiao Yuanqi. Wang Chu is as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, but he can't act rashly.

The change of the court is just a faint news for the harem. The only thing involved is the Empress Shu and the crown princess, but no matter how you look at it, the crown princess's profit margin is larger.

When Shen Sirong listened to the rumors collected everywhere, Shen Sirong couldn't help but be dumbfounded. She really didn't know that the high stakes could spread to the harem.

However, others don't know, but she knows Xiao Yuanqi. He will not fall into people's arms easily. So Shen Sirong has always been very indifferent.

The imperial garden in early spring has a fresh atmosphere. The light fragrance of flowers is mixed with the smell of grass. The pear blossom pavilion is in full bloom, snow-white and arrogant. The peach blossoms have not yet shown that little pink. The whole royal garden is full of light spring. The withered plum blossoms also scattered cold fragrance everywhere. Shen Sirong closed his eyes and deeply inhaled the intertwined breath of winter and spring.

"The princess is very interested."

Shen Sirong frowned and turned to look at Ruolan, who was dressed in plum red. Unlike her usual dress, Ruolan's clothes today are embroidered with dance embroidery patterns, with butterfly-winged golden hairpins and beads on her head.

"Isn't Lan Zhaoxun also interested?" Shen Sirong looked at the smiling Ruolan and only felt that there was something wrong. It seems that she doesn't even care about her face today, and her hostility is clear.

Ruolan didn't dare, but she took a few steps away from Shen Sirong. The wet nurse quietly saluted, but the purpose was to isolate Ruolan one step away.

"Mother, this is guarding against me..." Ruolan looked at the wet nurse with contempt in her eyes.

Shen Sirong only felt that Ruolan was too strange today. She smiled and said, "Nanny, let's go. We still have to go to Princess Lanxi.

This hint was done enough, and the wet nurse quickly put on a look of chagrin and sighed at herself.

"Lan Zhaoxun might as well continue shopping. I have something else to do, so I'll go first."

Shen Sirong was about to leave, and Ruolan continued to catch up. It seemed that the spring in the garden was just an excuse. There was only one Shen Sirong in her eyes.

"Why do you have to leave in such a hurry? My sister has something to say." Ruolan's eyes are raised, and there is a faint color of self-suffocy.

There is no way to avoid it. Shen Sirong faced Ruolan with a straight face: "Lan Zhaoxun has something to say."

"The Empress is cheerful. Can you back the screen?" Shen Sirong hesitated. She didn't know what Ruolan wanted to do. They had nothing to say, unless Ruolan wanted to do something to her.

Without waiting for her to refuse, the person who relieved her appeared.

"Your sister-in-law, I have been waiting for you for a long time. However, he asked me to look for you, but you were talking to people here. Lanxi shouted from afar, and the teacher beside her patiently reminded her to pay attention to royal etiquette.

Shen Sirong has never felt that Lanxi is so cute, and her upright eyebrows also make Shen Sirong feel warm. The vigilance was lifted, and the wet nurse also breathed a sigh of relief.

Lanxi, dressed in a red palace costume, stopped solemnly in front of Shen Sirong. She looked at Lan Zhaoxun and frowned, and even her eyes were tilted up.

"You didn't kneel down when you saw me?" The sharp voice made Lanxi a little unruly. Mother Xi was about to preach, but Lanxi said, "How should I punish her for ignoring my superiority and inferiority?"

Ruolan is a person who knows the current affairs. She quickly knelt down and saluted: "Your Highness Wan'an, it's Ruolan who went away for a while and didn't see the princess arrive. I hope the princess won't blame."

Lanxi took a look at Shen Sirong, and then thought about Lan Zhaoxun's favored reputation in the East Palace. He snorted coldly and pointed to a rockery in the southwest corner.

"You, kneel there, and the princess will calm down and ask someone to call you. Mother, I'm sorry to bother you here to watch. I will go shopping with my royal sister-in-law before coming back.

Arranged one by one, Lanxi took Shen Sirong's hand and left the royal garden with different eyes.

"My princess, do you know that I was taking you as a shield just now, but you were fine and talked to me as soon as you opened your mouth. Instead, it coaxed Lan Zhaoxun to be stunned.

It's really a coincidence that there are no flaws on either side. Shen Sirong was in a rare good mood and laughed with Lanxi. If she hasn't shown her true temperament in front of anyone since she was a child, she can really relax a lot to Lanxi.

"Sister-in-law, next time someone bullies you, come to me. My brother is not here, and I will protect you well." Lanxi said righteously.

Shen Sirong touched Lanxi's hair: "Then I will thank the princess first..."

Lanxi took her to a fork in the road, saying that she was walking, but the speed under her feet seemed to be windy. Shen Sirong didn't ask, but walked with Lanxi. When she arrived at the stone bridge she had stood before, she found that it was near Fengming Palace. However, Lanxi took her on a very remote road, so she didn't recognize her for a moment.

"Princess, why did you bring me here?" Shen Sirong asked unpreparedly. First of all, she had to think that she had sent someone to investigate whether the Fengming Palace had been exposed.

Lanxi saw her stop and thought she knew what was thinking, so she grabbed her little hand tighter: "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, Lanxi was afraid, so she pulled you here."

Hearing some eyebrows from Lanxi's words, Shen Sirong straightened his face, and his beautiful facial features came out coldly: "What are you afraid of? What do you want to take me to see again?"

The momentum of the eldest sister-in-law made Lanxi immediately short. She pulled Shen Sirong's cuffs and looked at the Fengming Palace not far away: "A few days ago, I came here to play and hide from the palace maids. At that time, I entered the Fengming Palace in a hurry, thinking that no one dared to enter, so naturally I would not lose. However, I saw a figure in it.

"Shadow?" Shen Sirong knew that the person Lanxi saw must be the person who left the rice grains.

Seeing that Shen Sirong was not angry with what she said, but interested in what she said, Lanxi's half-hanging heart also fell to the ground: "Well, even if it's a figure, she is dressed tattered and her hair is scattered."

"Can you see who it is?" Shen Sirong intuitively thought that the people in Fengming Palace must have something to do with Xiao Yuanqi's biological mother, the owner of Fengming Palace. She doesn't know if this person is useful to Xiao Yuanqi, but since she met him, she must find out.

"No, I only saw the man running in front of me. He was a woman, and I didn't see the rest clearly. What I don't understand is that there is such a person in the palace.

After Lanxi finished speaking, she entered the Fengming Palace with Shen Sirong. Without saying a few words, her eyes quickly enlarged, her tongue trembling, and her open red lips lost her blood color. She couldn't take her eyes off Shen Sirong's back. Shen Sirong also found the strangeness of Lanxi. She held her breath and quickly turned around. She happened to see a figure in blue-gray cloth clothes squatting with his back to them not far away.

The waist tightened, and Lanxi hugged Shen Sirong's waist. Shen Sirong patted the back of Lanxi's hand. She blocked Lanxi and gently walked to the figure not far away.

The more she walked in, the more clearly she heard the whining voice of the population. I don't know what she was talking about.

"Lanxi, you go to guard the palace gate and don't let people in." Shen Sirong whispered in Lanxi's ear. Lanxi shook his head and didn't want to leave Shen Sirong here alone. Shen Sirong looked at her carefully and pushed her towards the palace gate. Lanxi trotted to the gate of the palace and watched the situation from time to time.

"Who are you? Why are you here?"

Shen Sirong asked softly for fear of shocking the people in front of him. The man was still shocked and got up in a hurry to run. Shen Sirong raised his skirt and stopped the man: "Don't panic. I'm Princess Shen. What can I do for you?"

It's a gamble to report her identity. She wants to see if this person has anything to do with Xiao Yuanqi. Sure enough, the man did not run again, but stopped. It seems to be thinking about something.

Shen Sirong looked away and looked at the place where the man had just squatted. There were some scattered leftovers, thinking that it was stolen. However, because it is some remnants, no one cares about it.

"I once stayed here with His Royal Highness on Longevity Day."

If this person lives in Fengming Palace, he must know that she and Xiao Yuanqi came here to spend the night. Shen Sirong moved forward again, but the man panicked. He shook his hair like crazy. Shen Sirong suppressed the fear in his heart and continued to approach. The man suddenly looked back at Shen Sirong and quickly ran away.

That glance made Shen Sirong stay in place.
