On that day, the entire palace and even the imperial court received this decree.

There was a lot of discussion in the court, but in comparison, the harem accepted this fact calmly.

When they first entered the palace, they also thought of various tricks to get Shen Qi's favor, but most of the time, their status was too low and they could not even meet the emperor. Now, Su Zhi, who gave birth to the prince, suddenly appeared next to Shen Qi. Ruan, who is now Concubine Yue, and the relationship between the two of them, most of the concubines in the harem felt that they could not get involved.

Instead of spending the rest of his life boringly in the harem, it would be better to leave the palace as a female official, receive rewards and live freely. If he meets a better person again, he can spend his life with her.

After Su Zhiruan woke up from her nap, she heard a lot of noise outside. At this time, the palace maid came to help her get up.

"Have you been awakened? I asked them to go away." The maid saw that Su Zhiruan frequently looked out the window, thinking that she had been awakened.

Su Zhiruan waved her hand. She was just curious about what she was doing. She leisurely joked: "I don't want to eat people. Let's go out and have a look."

The two of them walked out of the dormitory one after another, and then Su Zhiruan stood at the door of Kunning Palace.

What came into view were horse-drawn carriages carrying large and small bags of luggage, lining up to go outside the palace. Some concubines had smiles on their faces, while others looked sad.

A woman who passed by and saw Su Zhiruan immediately saluted, "See you, Your Majesty."

"Get up, what are you doing today?" Su Zhiruan slept until now and was too sleepy to open her eyes even during lunch time. Shen Qi persuaded her to take a few bites, and then she went back to sleep. When she woke up Come on, the harem is almost empty.

"Your Majesty, you don't know?" The woman who was doing the salute was previously a noble. When Su Zhiruan asked her, she was surprised. Then she explained the reason, "The Emperor and the Queen Mother have decreed that concubines below the rank of concubine shall be As a female official, I was sent out of the palace with twice the corresponding reward. The concubines have already received the reward, and now they are leaving the palace!"

Su Zhiruan really didn't expect that when she heard this, she raised her head and looked into the distance - the people leaving the palace had already formed a long queue.

"Your Majesty the Imperial Concubine!!"

Just when Su Zhiruan looked at the queue on the left in the direction of leaving the palace, a voice suddenly came from not far away. The voice was clear and the tone was joyful. When Su Zhiruan looked back, he found that it was a familiar face.

The woman who shouted loudly was accompanied by a quieter woman. The two of them followed each other like a shadow, with joyful smiles on their faces.

"Your Majesty Wang, Your Majesty Song?" Su Zhiruan took two steps forward in their direction. Seeing their happy expressions, she knew that they were very satisfied with leaving the palace. She smiled and said, "Fortunately, before you leave the palace, We can meet again."

"Oh, who says it's not the case?" Wang Guiren grinned happily to the back of her ears. Song Guiren gently pulled her sleeves, and then she reacted and became more serious, "The three of us were arrested together at that time. Noble concubine, oh no, she is already a noble now, and she was punished to kneel down at the same time. No one thought that it would be like this now."

Song Guiren blinked lightly, "I didn't expect that the three of you and me back then are very different now. The emperor loves you and has also favored us. Rather than die of old age and alone in the palace, it is better to leave the palace and go to sea." The sky is high enough for birds to fly. Your Majesty lets us go. I sincerely treat you well and really love you, my dear concubine."

"What are your plans after leaving the palace?" Su Zhiruan asked softly after nodding slightly.

As soon as Wang Guiren mentioned this, her out-of-character personality took the initiative to interrupt. Maybe she was talking about something she liked, and even her speech speed increased a lot, "Our hometowns are very far away, and we definitely can't go back there. Now, we are going to open a medicine hall. She happens to have medical skills, and I will be responsible for protecting her and getting medicine. As for the future, if I meet the person I like, we will get married. Anyway, the days will definitely get better and better. The better.”

"My dear concubine, you and the emperor should be well together," Song Guiren lifted up her skirt and bowed, a palace ceremony. After the ceremony, she smiled, "This may be the last palace ceremony in my life. Ruan Ruan, I wish you the best." happiness."

"I wish you happiness." Wang Guiren also saluted.

"You also want to be happy. See you tomorrow." Su Zhiruan returned the greeting and said goodbye.

She looked at the two people walking away, laughing and talking, and suddenly felt a little emotional in her heart.

She is just an outsider doing a task, but she will be remembered.

This feeling is very good.

After a period of time, the harem began to be busy again.

In the previous dynasty, there was a flood disaster in the south of the Yangtze River. A large number of concubines were dismissed from the harem, and both parties were very busy.

In the blink of an eye, it was already a hundred days since the birth of the little prince Xingzhi. The queen mother took Su Zhi and Ruan Le happily ordered the servants to prepare for the banquet.

This time it was considered a family banquet, and there were not many people in the harem. Su Zhiruan, Shen Qi, the Queen Mother, and the royal children with whom they were relatively close all had a meal together, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

The days that followed were much duller, but Shen Qi, Su Zhiruan and the Queen Mother were all very satisfied.

The Queen Mother had lived the life she wanted of entertaining grandchildren, so she asked Shen Qi and Su Zhiruan to add a few more younger brothers and sisters to little Shen Xingzhi. Whenever this topic was brought up, Su Zhiruan knew that there would be no need for her tomorrow. Breakfast is ready.

A month later.

Shen Qi looked at Su Zhiruan who was sleeping next to the desk in the imperial study. He put down the pen in his hand worriedly and walked closer to probe her forehead.

Recently, the little girl seemed to be very sleepy every day, whether it was day or night. Seeing how sleepy she was, he couldn't even bear to torment her at night.

Originally he thought it was because he went too far at night that she didn't get enough sleep, but now, she fell asleep while leaning on the desk reading during the day...

The more Shen Qi thought about it, the more worried he became. He walked out of the imperial study room and saw Xiao Fuzi standing and chatting. He lowered his voice and called him, "Xiao Fuzi, go and call the imperial doctor for me!"

Xiao Fuzi was still chatting with his apprentice when he suddenly saw Shen Qi walking out on his own. He was so frightened that he almost knelt down, but Shen Qi stopped him directly.

"If you dare to speak out today, I will fine you three months' salary," Shen Qi said calmly, stopping Xiao Fuzi from bending his knees, "Go find me an imperial doctor."

"Your Majesty...how did you find the imperial doctor?" Xiao Fuzi looked at Shen Qi carefully, fearing that he might be injured somewhere.

"Try asking a few more questions." Shen Qi's calm eyes fell on him. Although it was very indifferent, Xiao Fuzi, who had been with him for more than ten years, knew that if he continued to ask more questions, his life might really be in danger, so he hurried out to look for him. Imperial physician.

Shen Qi returned to the imperial study and did not continue to review the memorial. Instead, he sat next to Su Zhiruan and carefully picked her up so that she could sleep more comfortably.

Soon, the imperial doctor hurriedly followed Xiao Fuzi into the imperial study, holding a medicine box in his hand.

As soon as he came in, the imperial doctor didn't even raise his head and said loudly: "I am here to see you, Your Majesty!"

In an instant, Shen Qi's dagger-like eyes fell on the imperial physician, and Su Zhiruan was also woken up at this time.
