Chapter 183 Empress Shen

Empress Zhou has exhausted all her agencies over the years, how can she let Mr. Shen overwhelm her as the queen?

When Chen Quan ascended the throne in Beijing, the Zhou family sent Empress Zhou's clan sister to the palace, thinking that emulating Empress E's daughter-in-law would create a good story and help the sisters control the harem.

Unfortunately, now that Chen Quan is the emperor, it is no longer the Zhou family's final decision to accept concubines.

Those brothers who followed Chen Quan to conquer the country, those civil servants and generals of the former dynasty who supported Chen Quan's ascension to the throne, and those who have girls of the right age at home, who don't want to enter the palace to get a share of the pie.

In just five years, the harem of the Great Shang Dynasty had one queen, two concubines, seven concubines, and more than 20 beauties of all kinds.

When Little Empress Zhou entered the palace, she was only given the title of a talented person. If she wanted to advance further, she could only wait until she gave birth to a dragon son and a dragon girl.

There were many twists and turns between Shen's entry into the palace and her establishment. However, Shen did have some skills, and she finally surpassed Empress Zhou. In the spring of the second year of Dashang Dynasty, Shen was established as the queen and Empress Zhou as the noble concubine.

During this period, the Song family and the Tang family also made considerable contributions to the establishment of the Shen family. The Song family owed the Shen family a favor, but now it is difficult to repay it.

But the Tang family is different. Although Mrs. Tang Qi and Mr. Shen are not sisters, they are more affectionate than sisters.

Tang Qi followed Chen Quan in the uprising, and the two ladies at home worked together to help each other, and they survived the most difficult time. The friendship during this period was unparalleled.

What no one expected was that in this palace fight, the former Marquis of Wu'an Zhou Zongyi would also side with the Shen family.

Only then did the battle between Shen and Zhou, which was originally evenly matched, come to an end very quickly.

Seeing that the two young men were relatively silent, Song Shisan, who was sitting in the main seat, spoke: "I heard that His Highness has returned to Beijing."

"Well, the empress sent someone to take His Highness back to Beijing yesterday."

Speaking of His Highness King Qin, Tang Jinming couldn't help but smile on his face, "Is it time for Your Majesty to establish a crown prince this time?"

Song Shisan smiled lightly: "That's not necessarily the case."

Song Yunfei had a mocking look on his face: "His Royal Highness King Qin is in frail health. His Majesty didn't want to make Queen Shen his queen, so he specifically named his third brother the king. Who doesn't know that Your Majesty prefers the fourth prince born to Concubine Zhou."

"That being said, if you want to establish a direct eldest son, it should be His Royal Highness the King of Qin. If Your Majesty never establishes a crown prince, wouldn't you make the world laugh at you?"

"His Royal Highness the King of Qin."

Song Yunfei glared at Tang Jinming, "You and your third brother grew up together, how come you became so different when you arrived in the capital?"

"It's not a birth certificate either..."

Tang Jin Mingjun blushed, he didn't mean to get angry with King Qin.

His family and the Chen family were close to each other. His father and His Majesty grew up together and were as close as brothers. His mother and the Queen were close friends and their relationship was even closer.

He has a good relationship with the eldest and second brothers of the Chen family. They grew up together and were naughty and went to school together. However, he is not familiar with His Highness the King of Qin. The King of Qin was born prematurely at a young age and was frail and sick. He spent most of his time at home recuperating from his illness.

From the time King Qin was born until he was sent to the mountains to recuperate by the Queen, he had not seen King Qin even a few times.

It was not until after the Shen family's aunt was established that my father went to the temple to visit the King of Qin. He followed him twice and came into contact with the King of Qin.

Although the King of Qin was very close to him, no different from the eldest and second brother of the Chen family back then, he was still somewhat uncomfortable facing the King of Qin.

Unlike Song Yunfei, who was thick-skinned and familiar. He had never even seen the King of Qin, but he could call his third brother affectionately.

Still, Song Shisan couldn't stand Song Yunfei's rudeness, so he scolded him: "Yunfei, you think everyone is like you, with no rules or regulations."

Here, the uncles and nephews of the Song family were chatting and laughing with Tang Jinming. Over there, all the students in the school had arrived and started reading in the morning.

Qingshan Academy is somewhat different from other academies. It has six classes every day, each class lasts for half an hour. One and a half hours of lectures in the morning, one and a half hours of lectures in the afternoon, and half an hour of morning reading in the morning.

Students go out early and come back late, and bring meals to the college canteen at noon.

Generally, rice is brought from home and exchanged for meal stamps to make meals. Vegetables require money to buy food stamps, ranging from fifteen to thirty cents for meat and vegetables, and five cents for vegetables.

The price is neither expensive nor cheap.

However, because there are many students in the school, the income after one year is quite considerable.

After the big exam, the academy started school a little early today.

Lu Sheige packed up his things and hurried to the gate of the academy. He saw Song Yunfei leaning against the door rail, with two people standing next to him.

As soon as he saw Lu Sheige, Song Yunfei immediately straightened up and raised his hand to greet: "Xiaosi, Xiaosi, here."

The surrounding students looked around one after another and saw that one of them was a teaching from the capital, and immediately looked at Lu Shege with complicated expressions.

Some shallow-minded people were already muttering to their companions: "Do you know Lu Hei and Jiao Yu?"

Wouldn't it be easy for Lu He to get the spot in the Imperial College?

Seeing Song Yunfei like this, Lu Xiangge was helpless and could only step forward and say hello one by one.

Fortunately, she didn't have to go to class after the college entrance examination. She only had to wait for the results of the college entrance examination in two days to come back and get the score sheet, and she was almost parted ways with this group of academy students.

She was not planning to go to the Imperial College to study, so she was naturally not afraid of making people jealous.

"Why did you come out?"

Song Yunfei smoothly took the book bag filled with books from Lu Sheige and introduced the two people around him, "This is my thirteenth uncle, and this is Tang Jinming, as you know, the son of Tang Qishu's family."

Song Shisan and Lu Sheige met him. During the big exam, this person stayed in the room where she was taking the exam, accompanied by the dean and several gentlemen.

Looking at the enthusiasm of the courtyard and the gentlemen towards him, I knew that this man was a disciple of the Imperial College.

As for Tang Jinming, Lu Sheige gave him a toothy smile, and he was stunned on the spot.

Tang Jinming only felt that the boy in front of him was too good-looking, and his face was too handsome to be that of a boy.

That's not right. When he saw her wearing a green shirt with her hair tied up and holding a book, he felt that this young man had an extraordinary temperament.

But when he got closer, he felt that if this face were a woman's, she would probably be the most powerful person in the country, right?

Song Yunfei took Lu Xiangge to walk beside him and murmured to each other. One of the two talked a lot and was attentive, while the other talked little but listened patiently. They walked together like brothers who had not seen each other for many years.

Song Shisan was walking on the other side of Song Yunfei, lowering his head and listening to the two people talking, smiling, really looking like an elder.

Tang Jinming walked a few steps, glanced at Lu Sheige, walked a few more steps, and looked again.

Finally I couldn't help but ask: "Have we met before?"

"What?" Song Yunfei stopped talking, "Who did you say you met? Xiaosi? How is it possible? She grew up in Jiangjiaba and you grew up in Nanyang. When you went to the capital, she had not come to Nanyang Academy yet.

Reading."

Tang Jinming was still thinking: "It just feels familiar."

Song Shisan, who was on the side, interjected: "We may have seen him in Nanyang. Lu Xi's family is not far from Nanyang. I came to Nanyang a few years ago and happened to meet you."

Lu Sheige nodded: "Of course I have been to Nanyang. I don't say more than once every year, but I always come three or four times."

After hearing this, Tang Jinming was no longer confused: "That's true, maybe we really met in Nanyang, but we didn't know each other at the time!"

After saying one sentence, everyone laughed, except Lu Shege's smile was very shallow.

Of course she remembered where she had met Tang Jinming. When her aunt Shen was released from prison, Tang Jinming grabbed her collar and spilled her fish.
