The First Auxiliary Road from the Imperial Examination

Chapter 781 Follow-up
After a boring fight with An Yu, it was time for Sheng Yuan to pay off.

An Yu originally wanted to send her back to the mansion in person, but the City Patrol Secretary and the commander of the internal guards all sent people to look for him. No way, he could only reluctantly wave to Sheng Yuan, and under the happy eyes of his fiancée, He replied flatteringly and left.

Sheng Yuan rode horses to and from Dali Temple recently. In her words, the law and order in Kyoto is very good recently, and the streets are much colder. There is no need to take a horse-drawn carriage.

"Cheng Sheng Si, the Empress Dowager invites you to enter the palace." Sheng Yuan had just pulled out the claret horse from the stable when he saw the familiar waiter come up.

"Okay." Seeing him, Sheng Yuan nodded habitually.

Since the emperor came out of Beijing, she went to the palace to have dinner with the queen mother every now and then, counting the time, it was indeed time to enter the palace.

Coming to the Palace of Compassion and Peace, Sheng Yuan's first reaction was to look around.

Aunt Qi laughed when she saw this, "Don't worry, since last month, the Empress Dowager has separated the time when Princess Yongping enters the palace from you!"

"Hey!" Sheng Yuan didn't expect such a good thing to happen, so he laughed naively.

It's not that she's afraid of the other party, the main thing is that Princess Yongping doesn't hold back her thoughts on soliciting, even if she rejects it many times overtly and secretly, the other party seems to be unable to understand, which really annoys her.

When the emperor was in Beijing before, she was far away. Now that the emperor is leaving Beijing, how could she accept the olive branch she handed over?

"You girl, are you still afraid?" The Queen Mother Qin couldn't help laughing when she saw her relieved look.

"I'm an official of the imperial court, so of course I have to avoid suspicion!" Sheng Yuan smiled honestly.

The Empress Dowager Qin took a look at her, but she didn't expose it, and soon lost herself in Shengyuan's coaxing.

It wasn't until Sheng Yuan left, the Palace of Compassion and Ning was closed, and before the Empress Dowager Qin went to bed, that she told Aunt Qi with a smile: "Try not to let Yongping and Sister Yuan see you in the palace! That little girl is hiding from cats." The little mouse looks so pitiful."

Aunt Qi smiled and said yes, but when she tucked in the quilt for the Empress Dowager Qin, she couldn't help it, and said with a light smile, "If Princess Yongping wants to see Sister Yuan, she can still see her outside the palace."

"Then I can't take care of it, but... Sister Yuan is clever, and she won't suffer!" The Queen Mother Qin shook her head with a smile, trusting Sheng Yuan's ability to hide people.

Of course, disbelief doesn't work, after all, it's for the good of Sheng Yuan, and you can't directly order Yongping not to look for Sheng Yuan.

……

Sheng Yuan, who returned home, thought he had brought good news, so he ran towards the main courtyard happily.

"You said the queen mother allowed your sister to raise a baby in our house?" Zheng Shi and Sheng Xiangxun couldn't help being overjoyed when they heard the words.

Originally, as the concubine of Prince Hui, Sheng An should also accompany Prince Hui, but she finally became pregnant. The emperor, queen mother and two noble concubines in the palace did not approve of her accompanying her.

"Before the trip, King Hui specially asked the queen mother for an order, saying that she would let my sister come back to live with us to raise her baby. However, the queen mother felt that the emperor and his sister would come back as soon as they left Beijing, and let outsiders know that it might not have a good influence. .So I asked someone to pick up my sister and live in the palace for a while. It was also recently that my sister was recuperated, and the imperial doctor also said that the fetus was healthy, so the queen mother let my sister come back from the palace!"

If the Empress Dowager Qin hadn't said it today, Sheng Yuan would not have known about her brother-in-law, and had previously proposed to the emperor that she wanted to stay in the capital.

It is said that the emperor was going to agree in the first place, but he did not agree because Concubine Xie felt that it was inappropriate.

After all, in the eyes of some courtiers with impressive understanding, "staying in Beijing" is equivalent to "supervising the country". Concubine Xie Guifei didn't want her son to look for trouble.
