Chapter 300

300 omens of an impending storm

"All women are thin, isn't it good to be thin?" Shen Qingru smiled and touched her face. Only her grandmother thought she was thin, and there was so much meat on her face.

The old imperial concubine couldn't be more distressed. She said angrily, "silly child, it's better to be fat. You look so thin that people look distressed." the old imperial concubine distressed Shen Qingru and asked the servant girl to quickly bring Shen Qingru a bowl of Hibiscus egg soup she loved most in the past: "eat more, your kitten like appetite, how can you have the strength to take care of the child?"

Shen Qingru could only use another half bowl of Hibiscus egg soup under the loving eyes of the old princess.

After a while, Xu Mingzhu unexpectedly came over. They haven't seen each other for a long time. Now they don't have the same grudge as before. They are very happy to meet each other.

It turned out that Xu Mingzhu had already been rescued by gning. Now the emperor was kidnapped by Queen Yan Ru. She couldn't return to the palace and had to live in the Regent's house temporarily. She had been in the palace as an expedient measure and had no feelings for the emperor. Now she has returned to the Regent's house, and her life is like a duck to water and very comfortable,

Xu Mingzhu was also very happy to see her. She smiled and said, "I thought I married before you. I didn't expect you to take the lead for the sake of the children."

Shen Qingru smiles. Xu Mingzhu's character is much more lively and cheerful than before. It is estimated that after staying in the palace for a period of time, she has figured out a lot of things, but she doesn't look like she was complaining about herself.

"By the way, you gave birth to a baby. I haven't had time to send you a gift. I heard that there is a jewelry shop in Baoyue building outside the city. The gold and silver jewelry is good in style and exquisite in workmanship. Let's go and have a look. I'll just make some gold bracelets for the baby as a gift from my aunt." Xu Mingzhu said with a smile.

Shen Qingru didn't have any intention to go out, but Xu Mingzhu advised her again. The old princess looked at her with expectant eyes. She really couldn't bear to disobey their kindness, so she had to promise. In fact, they really don't have to worry. She just doesn't want to go out now. She's not depressed,.

"It's good to go out for a walk. It's just that we haven't been together for a long time." Shen Qingru promised with a smile. Xu Mingzhu smiled and teased the baby in the cradle with her fingers: "Mom and aunt go out to buy the sugar man for the baby?"

The baby looked at her with a confused face and showed her a big micro smile. Xu Mingzhu looked at the little angel smile and felt that her heart was going to melt.

"The baby is so cute." Xu Mingzhu looked at the baby with envy: "when would I have such a lovely baby..." Shen Qingru smiled, put her hand on her shoulder and comforted: "there will be. Then you will dislike him for making noise in your ears every day, which makes you restless."

"I'm also happy when he makes trouble..." Xu Mingzhu's two eyes are tightly stuck to the baby and she is reluctant to leave. She is a person who likes children. Besides, the baby is cute and lovely. Everyone in the Regent's palace loves him very much. No wonder Xu Mingzhu is hot eyed.

”Mingzhu... "Shen Qingru hesitated a little and seemed to want to comfort her. Xu Mingzhu waved her hand and laughed indifferently:" I came to persuade you, but now I want you to persuade me. You'll know when you go out with me. Now I can't think about it as before. Life is short and have fun in time. This is my fundamental purpose of life at present“

Shen Qingru couldn't help laughing when she heard Xu Mingzhu's arrogant words. The baby sat in the breast of the nursing mother, calmly gnawing at his feet. She didn't know what the two people were laughing at.

Xu Mingzhu took Shen Qingru out and drove all the way to the gold and silver jewelry shop in Baoyue building. The shopkeeper met the distinguished guests from the Regent's house. He was very enthusiastic. He closed the shop and only received them. He touched the booklet in front of them and asked them to choose at random. Xu Mingzhu repeatedly chose several anklets and prepared to give one to the baby as usual. Shen Qingru repeatedly gave way: " The grandmother and father have given enough things to the baby. There are more than a dozen barefoot bracelets that can't be worn out. "

Xu Mingzhu now has a lot of money. When she married, the old princess gave her a large dowry, and gning gave her several Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing. After entering the palace, the emperor doted on her and gave her a wide range of jewelry. She can't fill up several boxes, so she is very generous now,

It's not for you. Xu Mingzhu glanced at him and gave the selected style to the girl: "make one of these, and when can it be sent to the Regent's house?"

The boss of Baoyue building immediately lost his teeth when he heard that he was a distinguished guest of the Regent's house: "I'll send it to your house as soon as possible. Please rest assured."

Xu Mingzhu snorted coldly, "you should be more careful. Don't perfunctory me, or I won't pay." the shop owner nodded like a chicken pecking rice and promised with a stack of voices.

"Let's pick some." Xu Mingzhu turned her head and looked at Shen Qingru: "look at you. You've almost become a yellow faced woman since you gave birth to a child. You don't comb your hair or dress up well. You're so plain every day. Which man would like you?"

Shen Xin stood there like a fool and let Xu Mingzhu scold. When did she need to find a man?

After a while, Shen Qingru knew why Xu Mingzhu asked her to dress up. She took her to a restaurant. As soon as she entered the room, several handsome young men were waiting. Seeing Xu Mingzhu go in with her, several men put flattering smiles on their faces.

"I've seen two princes," several men said in unison. Shen Qingru moved slightly, and his intuition felt wrong. Xu Mingzhu grabbed her hand and walked into it.

"Let's meet Mr. Xu." Xu Mingzhu pointed to one of the young and handsome officials and said, "young and promising. He is one of the best young talents in the imperial court."

The young official surnamed Xu quickly bowed deeply to Shen Qingru and smiled modestly: "Princess Mingzhu is flattered. Xiaosheng is not talented..."

Suddenly someone sneered: "it's just a four grade official. What's the affectation?"

The official surnamed Xu turned pale and said calmly: "although the lower official is only the top four, he was admitted to the Imperial College by virtue of his true talent and learning. He became the top scholar and climbed to the position of the top four step by step. Unlike some people, he mixed a top two official under the shadow of his family, but he was a straw bag in his bones."

"Who are you talking about?"

A young official nearby angrily blushed. It seems that this is the official who is mixed into the second grade by virtue of the shadow of his family. They stared at each other like black eyed chickens, eager to try. Seeing that the two were about to fight, Xu Mingzhu on one side snorted coldly: "do you still have me in your eyes?"

After a meal, they quickly bowed to Xu Mingzhu and apologized. They looked very ashamed,. Xu Mingzhu was holding a shelf. The beautiful phoenix eye was more than a glance despised by the two men. The two men felt more guilty and lowered their heads deeply,

"Don't just entertain me, you should entertain the one in front of you." Xu Mingzhu's words made several young officials immediately turn their attention to Shen Qingru. Shen Qingru inexplicably felt great pressure.

Xu Mingzhu brought her here for a blind date.

Shen Qingru didn't know what to say. He and Xu Mingzhu, one of the favorite concubines of the Turkic emperor, had children. It's ridiculous that two people went to the restaurant to date a large group of men.

Shen Qingru reaches out and pulls Xu Mingzhu's sleeve to persuade her to leave early. Xu Mingzhu waved boldly: "I know what you're going to say. Although I'm a ruined flower and willow now, you even have children, but these men are still flocking to us. Our market is very good. You just choose what looks good, not forcing you to marry now. It's always OK to have fun.",

It seems that Xu Mingzhu is not only more cheerful now, but has completely released herself. Her current behavior is exactly the same as that of the original Xindu princess.

The young man around them flattered them in various ways, and Shen Qingru ignored them at all. Those young officials saw her lack of interest, and it was no use trying to please her. They targeted the heroic Xu Mingzhu. Xu Mingzhu didn't refuse to come. The heroic drank and had fun with these men.

"You are too old-fashioned. I have heard that your former man, general Huo, is very handsome, but his character is like an iceberg and is not likable at all. Only people like you would like him. If I had changed, I would have been separated from him..." Xu Mingzhu was having fun and didn't forget to educate Shen Qingru.

"Besides, he has a little wife now. Since you are determined to separate from him, why worry about him? Life is short and have fun in time. I told you earlier. If there is no type you like in today's batch, I'll find you some more..." Xu Mingzhu simply patted her chest and gave her a guarantee, looking at the young men in front of her with disgust: "The quality of you people is so poor that none of them can make him interested in you. It's really boring. Well, if anyone can let Miss Qingru drink a wine in her hand, I'll ask my father to give him the title of marquis."

As soon as these words came out, the group looked at Shen Qingru as if the wolf had seen the prey. Shen Qing retreated in the following consciousness. Xu Mingzhu was so mischievous that she wanted to run away, but the people in front of her didn't give her a chance to escape at all. They were crazy and blocked the water around her. All of them had lotus tongues and wanted to persuade her to drink a glass of wine in the palm of her hand,

"Mingzhu, stop fooling around, I want to go back..." Shen Qingru shouted in a hurry. Xu Mingzhu was happy and didn't hear what Shen Xinru said. He smiled and said to him: "enjoy it, Qingru. Don't always lock yourself in the house and don't come out. You see how good it is..."

"Don't follow me, stay away from me!" Shen Qingru was almost mad. These shameless men, like Pugs, refused to go around him. She couldn't breathe.

A carriage stopped downstairs. A tall, handsome and straight cross carriage looked at Qingjun's face upstairs from a distance. The smile on Qingjun's face immediately disappeared, and even his eyes became strange. If you had to use a word to describe it, it was a precursor of the coming storm.
