"Your Majesty, is there anything bothering you?" Lian Yun, who was waiting on the side, was full of worries. After her majesty finished talking with Guard Ye, she didn't say a word along the way, but her brows were slightly frowned occasionally. Now the guzheng in Su's hand didn't make any sound.
"It's okay." Shen Qingwan said softly, but her heart couldn't calm down for a long time. After all, this matter was not a trivial matter. She didn't expect that her father's affairs could involve such complicated things.
Shen Qingwan found it difficult to make an evaluation of Fu Huaiyu. His pair of purple peach blossom eyes always had a cynical smile on their faces. On the surface, he seemed kind, but his heart was like a fog that made it impossible to understand even a little bit.
Just as Shen Qingwan was daydreaming, the eunuch outside the palace shouted in a shrill voice: "The Emperor has arrived..."
“Your Majesty…” Seeing that her own majesty had no reaction at all, Lianyun hurriedly pulled Shen Qingwan’s sleeve.
Shen Qingwan was wondering in her heart, and coincidentally, when she raised her eyes, she was unexpectedly bumped into those black eyes as black as stars. They were just like the calm sea surface, but there was indeed destruction hidden in them.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you." Shen Qingwan bowed gracefully. Her folded flowing skirt made her look somewhat thin and weak. Fu Yuheng felt a pain in his heart. Shen Qingwan must have been unable to sleep or eat well these past few days because of General Shen's affairs. Now he was thinking, if he told her the news about the general, he wondered what her cold face would react
Fu Yuheng actually had a little more anticipation in his heart, so when he learned about this, he hurried over to share it with him.
"My beloved concubine, please don't be so polite. You have looked much more haggard these past few days. If General Shen knew about this, how could he feel at ease?" Fu Yuheng had some slight reproaches, but more of it was sympathy. She had suffered a lot these days.
Although Shen Qingwan already knew about her father's recent situation, she was still on the border battlefield. As long as the border was not stable, she would be worried, fearing that she would receive some bad news in the end. "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. Now that my father is in danger, how can I feel at ease?"
"Don't worry. General Shen is a brave and warlike man in our dynasty. He is not undeservedly honored as the leader of the army. My beloved concubine, don't you have even a little trust in General Shen?" Fu Yuheng also knew that these words were actually useless. The best way was to resolve the border issue as soon as possible. In this way, when General Shen came back, Shen Qingwan would feel much more relieved.
"By the way, my beloved, I do have good news about General Shen. Would you like to hear it?" Fu Yuheng deliberately kept the secret here. He actually hoped to see another side of Shen Qingwan. However, Shen Qingwan already knew the result, and he was originally a cold person. Now, even the slightest cooperation was a bit reluctant. However, thinking of not arousing Fu Yuheng's suspicion, he just slightly raised the corners of his mouth, and there was a hint of eagerness in his eyes.
To be honest, Fu Yuheng felt a little disappointed when he saw Shen Qingwan's reaction, but he thought that maybe he had been thinking too much in the past few days and he didn't react for a while. Although he was confused, he still told her all the news that Ye Feng had told him.
"My beloved concubine, there is no need to worry about General Shen. I have promised you before. Now the matter of the general has been solved. There is indeed a spy in the army. I will give him and you an explanation." Shen Qingwan knew this result early on, but she acted very bored. What she cared about now was nothing more than the Ninth Prince Fu Huaiyu. After all, if this matter was really done by the Ninth Prince, then what would happen to Fu Yuheng in the end
But now we can't just rely on one person's words to determine the Ninth Prince's guilt. What if someone deliberately framed him? What if... someone deliberately tried to sow discord between the Ninth Prince and the Emperor!
But even he himself did not quite believe this idea. That person might really do such a thing. He hid so deeply. How could he have no ambition at all in such a huge palace
As he thought about it, his face became a little serious. It was because this matter was hidden from him that his face became a little stiff.
"My beloved concubine, what are you thinking about?" Fu Yuheng saw that she seemed to be a little confused, and he also had some doubts in his heart. Is she hiding something from him
But I felt sorry for her in my heart, thinking that maybe she was just too worried these days.
"I dare not." Perhaps sensing that the atmosphere was wrong, Shen Qingwan came back to her senses. When she heard him ask this, she forced a smile, but her words lacked some persuasiveness.
"Since my beloved concubine is so in a bad mood, I will not disturb you. I think the general is fine, so we can rest assured." To be honest, Fu Yuheng felt a little sour in his heart. He was treating her well enough now, but she was still lukewarm.
Fu Yuheng turned away. After all, he was so upset that he was afraid that if he stayed here any longer, he would get out of control. He just wondered in his heart whether Shen Qingwan was hiding something.
It can be felt from just now that Shen Qingwan has been absent-minded now, but the general's matter has been settled, so there is no need to worry about it. So what happened that caused this
Lianyun felt very disappointed with her own queen for the slightest reaction, but after talking to her for a long time, her queen just drifted away again, just like a fist hitting cotton, soft and powerless.
And what Shen Qingwan is thinking now is whether she can make random guesses about this matter. Instead of thinking about it here, it is better to ask directly. Shen Qingwan still has some gratitude towards Fu Huaiyu in her heart. After all, he has helped her several times. People are all made of flesh and blood. How can they have no feelings at all
Shen Qingwan had some thoughts in her mind, but now, if she didn't ask clearly, if the matter became a big deal in the future, it would not be good for anyone.
After all, Fu Yuheng and Fu Huaiyu are both descendants of royal families. Are they really going to become enemies because of this
The current imperial court cannot afford to go through all this. The border issues have not been resolved yet. If there is a royal family struggle, it will definitely involve a bunch of border generals. This is not something that everyone wants to see.
At this moment, the Ninth Prince had already returned to his palace and was discussing the matter of Hu Youshan with Mo Zilian in the study.
