Chapter 574 Zhao Shun delays meeting His Majesty
At night, the snow stopped, and the north wind was still howling, blowing snowflakes off the eaves.
Shen Qinglan was lying sideways on the couch, holding a baked sweet potato wrapped in parchment paper in his hand.
Zhao Shun took a sip of tea, glanced at her, and asked, "What are you thinking about? You're so preoccupied."
Shen Qinglan took a bite of the roasted sweet potato, then put the sweet potato down, rewrapped the oily paper, wiped his mouth and said, "My lord, I have an idea."
Zhao Shun chuckled and asked, "What's the idea of my little fox?"
Shen Qinglan pouted, rolled his eyes at him, and said, "The second brother reminded me today that the more we care about Yi Feng, the more dangerous Yi Feng will be."
"Isn't it always been like this? Since Yi Feng was taken away, except for Yan'er and Ji Fan who went there once, we never asked about it." Zhao Shun said.
"I was thinking... Should we send two people to pretend to assassinate him? In that case, they would want to protect Yi Feng instead. Yan'er is still unconscious, and I must save Yi Feng's life." Shen Qinglan said .
Zhao Shun thought for a while, and said: "The prison is heavily guarded. It is almost impossible to break into the prison for assassination, but this is a good way. The king can go to the prison in person."
Shen Qinglan nodded lightly, and asked again: "My lord, are the troops on the frontier ready?"
"This matter can't be too urgent, otherwise...Brother Wang will notice." Zhao Shun said.
"Yeah." Shen Qinglan picked up the sweet potato again, noticing that Zhao Shun was still looking at her eagerly, so he asked, "Would the lord want to eat it?"
"I don't eat. Sisi, how can you eat so much recently?" Zhao Shun was puzzled.
"Is there? Maybe my emotions have been tense recently, and I have no way to vent, so I can only eat." Shen Qinglan said.
"It's been really hard for you during this time, is there anything else you want to eat? If there is no one in the mansion, I'll go outside and buy it." Zhao Shun said.
"No need, I can eat whatever I want." Shen Qinglan said.
Zhao Shun picked up the teacup again and asked, "How is An Ning today?"
"I went to take a look this morning, and she is in much better spirits, now the elders can finally feel at ease." Shen Qinglan said.
……
On the second day, Shen Qinglan originally wanted to visit Zhao Anning in the Shen residence, but just after leaving the hospital, she met Chu Yinyin and her maid who came close.
"My concubine has met the concubine herself, concubine Jin'an." Chu Yinyin saluted.
"Why is the princess here? Is there something wrong?" Shen Qinglan asked.
"I'm fine, I just came here because I didn't come to pay my respects to the princess for so long," Chu Yinyin said.
"Princess, you're welcome. It's so cold, princess, go back first. I have something to do." Shen Qinglan said.
"I'm bothering the princess, I'm leaving as a concubine."
After saying that, Chu Yinyin saluted again, took three steps back and turned to leave.
"Let's go."
Shen Qinglan continued to walk in the direction of Shen's residence, Fu'er turned her head to look at Chu Yinyin, and whispered: "Princess, the princess seems to be more beautiful than before, it seems that your facial fat has worked."
"Chu Yinyin grew up in an extremely cold frontier. When she came to the Central Plains, her skin would naturally improve. Of course, my facial oil is really good." Shen Qinglan said.
Fu'er supported her and continued to walk forward, and asked after a while: "Princess, the prince went out early in the morning today, is there something urgent?"
"The prince wants to enter the palace to meet His Majesty, and there are still some official duties that have not been met, so he left early today." Shen Qinglan said.
"My servant heard from the maid beside the princess that the Empress Dowager went to Zening Hall to intercede for our Shen family, but she was reprimanded by the Empress Dowager." Fu'er said.
Shen Qinglan smiled lightly and said nothing.

After explaining the government affairs, Zhao Shun came to Da Nei in a carriage.
Zhao Bai was grading papers in the imperial study, when Wang Deyi entered the door and said, "Your Majesty, the regent is here, do you want to invite him in?"
"Old rules." Zhao Bai said.
"Yes, the slave understands."
Wang Deyi went out and said to the Prince Regent: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty is busy at the moment, please wait a moment."
Zhao Shun didn't answer the words, but stood silently in the cold wind, the cold wind passed by, blowing the black cloak on his body.
Wang Deyi sighed secretly, turned and entered the door.
After noon, after Zhao Bai leisurely had his lunch, Wang Deyi reminded: "Your Majesty, the regent is still waiting outside."
"I'm sleepy, take a short rest and talk about it when I wake up." Zhao Bai said.
"……Yes."
……
Zhao Shun stood in the icy cold wind and waited quietly. Not long after, the internal officials beside the empress dowager came to the imperial study.
"My lord, it's cold, take care of yourself. The Empress Dowager invites you to Zening Hall. Tea has been prepared."
"Thank you, Empress Dowager, for your kindness. I still have important matters to discuss with Your Majesty. I'm afraid I will disappoint the empress dowager's kindness." Zhao Shun said coldly.
The inner officer of Zening Hall suddenly lowered his face, and said: "Regent, the Empress Dowager has an invitation, and my servant advises you to go, so as not to make the Empress Dowager angry again."
Zhao Shun took a deep breath and ignored him.
The internal officer looked up at him and left angrily.
After returning to Zening Hall, he told the Empress Dowager what happened in the Imperial Study Room in detail.
The queen mother hadn't said anything yet, but Nanny Meng was very angry, and said angrily: "The regent is so bold to ignore the queen mother!"
"How long has the Regent been waiting outside the Imperial Study?" the Empress Dowager asked.
"It's been nearly three hours, and the wind outside the imperial study room is strong. Although the regent is in good health, he probably won't be able to handle it," the internal official replied.
The empress dowager snorted coldly, raised the corners of her lips, and said: "I think back then, Zhao Shun secretly contacted the court officials behind Ai's family and supported the emperor as the emperor. Take it to heart, I watched him be dismissed, and now I don't even want to see him."
"Thinking about it, the Prince Regent has already started to regret it now," said the internal officer.
"Reward for retaliation. At the beginning, the Ai family took care of him and the Shen family so much. Didn't he betray the Ai family? Today's result is also his retribution." The empress dowager said.
"Empress Dowager, I heard that the regent has handed over his duties today. It seems that the regent is really unable to turn over." The internal official said.
"Removal first, and then winning the title, this is just around the corner. The Ai family can't just sit and watch them destroy the country that the ancestors of the Zhao family have laid down with blood for many years." The empress dowager said.
"The empress dowager is planning a strategy, and the fall of the regent is also expected by everyone." Nanny Meng said.
The Empress Dowager picked up the beads on the table with a smile, and asked, "What has Su'er been up to lately, and I haven't seen him come into the palace to pay his respects."
"Returning to the Empress Dowager, His Highness the Sixth Highness has been staying at the mansion recently. I heard from the housekeeper that he has never stepped out of the mansion during this period, either to read books and practice calligraphy, or to paint and play the piano." Meng Nam said.
"This child has also grown a lot. According to the words of the Ai family, we must protect the safety of His Highness the Sixth Highness. If there is even the slightest mistake, the Ai family will not forgive you lightly." The empress dowager said.
"Don't worry, Empress Dowager, the masters of the Grand Palace have been guarding the residence of His Highness the Sixth Highness, and the residence of the Sixth Highness is also close to the Grand Palace, and there is still the Elder Son guarding it, no one dares to do anything wrong." Meng Nam said.
"That's not necessarily the case. If it's not guaranteed, someone will eat a bear's heart and a leopard's guts. You must not relax." The queen mother said.
"Yes, I will send someone out of the palace immediately, does the Empress Dowager have anything else to say to His Highness the Sixth Highness?" Mother Meng asked.
The empress dowager thought for a while, "Forget it, Su'er is getting older, there are some things that I don't need to say to my family, he knows it in his heart, just bring some good supplements and snacks."
"Yes, the servant understands."
