All the ancestors in the capital begged me to be a substitute

Three days later, Sheng Xie came to the door and personally brought Shen Lingxi into the palace.

Accompanying her into the palace were Xue Tuan and King An.

That night, when he came out of Prince An's mansion, King An followed Shen Lingxi all the time.

"I have nowhere to go, I just want to be with Xuetuan."

"Meow."

Shen Lingxi was very curious, "Doesn't Your Highness want to visit the Emperor and Empress?"

The young man lowered his head, "My biological mother is the late Concubine Lian, and she is not close to the empress. As for the father...he probably doesn't want to see me, let's forget it."

Most of Shen Lingxi's affairs about the royal family are just hearsay and know very little.

Hearing this, it's not easy to ask any more questions, so I went with him to play with Xue Tuan.

Hearing that Shen Lingxi was going to enter the palace, Wang An hesitated for a long time before deciding to go with her.

Except for the Shen family and Mu Huai'an, Shen Lingxi and Shen Ji's divorce was never mentioned to anyone else.

She didn't mention it, as it was written in the divorce book, Shen Ji naturally wouldn't mention it either.

Therefore, in the eyes of outsiders, she is still the prostitute of the Xuanping Hou Mansion.

It was the "poor little boy" who was treated favorably and lightly by Shen Ji.

Empress Dowager Dou was idle and bored in the deep palace, and would always send the little eunuch to the market to find some jokes and tell her back.

Therefore, jokes such as "the evil spirit rises from the well in the long well of Miaoling Dao", "Miaoling Taoist priest was born in a famous family and is the real daughter of Xuanpinghou's mansion", "Xuanpinghou Li Daitao married the second daughter stiffly" are similar to popular excerpts. The same, one after another was brought back by the little eunuch and narrated with emotion.

Not to mention the Empress Dowager, even the maids in Shoukang Palace are familiar with it.

As a result, Shen Lingxi, the person involved in the anecdote in the capital, was greeted by the palace servants as soon as she entered the Shoukang Palace.

What's more, Sheng Xie is Chu Yan's personal bodyguard. He brought Shen Lingxi into the palace, which is no different from Chu Yan's appearance in person. The eyes of the palace people looking at Shen Lingxi are somewhat different.

Xuetuan returned to Shoukang Palace, jumping around happily.

When You Qi saw Queen Mother Dou, he jumped up and threw himself into her arms.

Empress Dowager Dou didn't know anything about it, she was reclining on the couch with a sickly and sickly look on her face.

Seeing Shen Lingxi, although the Empress Dowager did not appear very warm, she did not send her away quickly either.

He gave her a seat, and asked her what she did at home, what she met, and what entertainment she had in accordance with the previous practice when interviewing women from aristocratic families.

Shen Lingxi has nothing to hide, she honestly said, "When I was a child in the coffin shop, I learned how to bury people, and I also specialize in this on weekdays. I can also make paper bundles and shrouds, and sometimes follow Jinxian Masters and nephews who are watching, draw talismans and do ritual deeds."

The palace servants on duty looked at her and fell silent.

Good guy, this is a professional and multi-skilled, and it has covered the trivial matters.

Empress Dowager Dou sat up slightly, but she couldn't see anything on her face, and asked her again, "Have you ever read a book? How many words can you read?"

"When I was in the village, many elders took pity on me and read books." Shen Lingxi thought of the days when those dead souls who were still eager to learn after death recited all kinds of classics in her ears. This can be regarded as... Read it.

She paused, "On weekdays, I will write elegiac couplets for others to earn some money. I can write all characters, but my calligraphy is not good."

Everyone was silent again.

You can write elegiac couplets for others, but you are still "not good", then you are really too humble.

This girl is really inseparable from white things.

To be disrespectful, this girl doesn't seem to be here to embroider the shroud for the empress dowager, but rather to send her to die.

Almost catching up with one-stop service.

Empress Dowager Dou looked a bit ugly, and waved her hand, "You go down first, rest in the east side hall, let Xiaodouzi take you around, I will think about the pattern of the shroud, and I will find you to talk to me someday."

Shen Lingxi has long been accustomed to such reactions.

It is human nature that people in the world do not taboo against life, but all taboo against death.

She respectfully complied, and was taken down by a young eunuch with a good appearance to resettle her.

After she left, Empress Dowager Dou finally couldn't hold back, and laughed out loud.

"Liu Lang really found a treasure for the Ai family." Empress Dowager Dou laughed out of joy, her sickly look was much more energetic, "The Ai family has not met such an interesting person for a long time."

Sheng Xie didn't expect the Queen Mother to react like this, and a look of surprise flashed across his face.

The queen mother looked at him and asked, "Liu Lang asked you to bring this little girl, but what do you want to say to the Ai family?"

Sheng Xie: "Your Highness said that only Miss Shen in Dazhou can embroider the embroidered patterns that your Majesty wants. If she violates your Majesty's taboo, let your subordinates lead her out of the palace, and His Highness will find another embroidery pattern and embroider for your Majesty." Mother come."

The queen mother raised her eyebrows, and she could hear the meaning of defense in her words.

The smile on his face deepened.

"What's so taboo about this?" She swept her eyes across the crowd, "As the saying goes, 'There is nothing important about a person's life except death'. Aren't the things that the little girl does, such as putting people into the coffin and sending them to death, are all first-class events? ?”

Although the words were aimed at Sheng Xie, they were intended to beat the servants in the palace.

She is the most honorable person in the harem, since she thinks Shen Lingxi is good, the whole palace cannot say that Shen Lingxi is not good.

The palace people secretly remembered that Sheng Xie also looked slightly relieved, and retreated back to return to his command.

After he left, the Empress Dowager told Li Jinwang, "The child looked too thin, so I ordered the dining room to make more soup and make up for her. Then I issued a decree for the Ai family to the Xuanping Hou Mansion, and named Shen Lingxi as Shoukang." The female officer Fengyi of the palace, tell Xuan Pinghou that there are people who are willing to love the child he does not want."

The Fengyi female official is the highest-ranking female official next to the queen and the queen mother. From the fourth rank, when seeing concubines below the imperial concubine in the palace, they are all exempted from courtesy.

The Empress Dowager named Shen Lingxi "Fengyi female official", not because she really wanted her to serve her, but to let everyone inside and outside the palace know that Shen Lingxi was the one she protected.

Li Jinwang naturally knew what to do, so he agreed with a smile and arranged to go.

*
Although Shen Lingxi was not present at the main hall, she knew clearly through King An's mouth.

King An sighed a little, "I used to be very afraid of the emperor's grandmother. Every time I came to Shoukang Palace, I was afraid of making mistakes and offending the emperor's grandmother. I didn't expect her to be such a kind person."

These words made Shen Lingxi a little suspicious.

"What kind of person is the Empress Dowager, what do you like and what do you dislike? Even if you don't know, the palace servants who serve you should also know. Has no one mentioned you?"

An Wang shook his head.

"They say that the empress dowager is only the empress dowager, and the empress dowager is the real grandmother. They are also afraid of the empress dowager. When I was young, they only advised me to play in the empress dowager's palace. I am not close to the empress dowager. When I grow up, I dare not get any closer."

Shen Lingxi was thoughtful.

Even though the Empress Dowager was not born, the concubine in the Yutan Palace is just the younger sister of the deceased biological mother, Concubine Hui, so she can't be regarded as King An's "grandmother".

Shen Lingxi thought again that Yuzhu was from Yutan Palace, and couldn't help but become more curious about this concubine...

The next update will be later, think again, and come back tonight.
