Shen Qingwan was stunned. What did he mean
"You are joking, Ninth Prince." Shen Qingwan lowered her head, and her eyes flashed with emotions. When she looked up again, she smiled bitterly and said, "Since I am the emperor's concubine, how can I leave with you?"
His already pale face now showed even more of a pitiful and fragile temperament, just like a butterfly with its wings pinched, his heart trembling slightly.
Fu Huaiyu obviously didn't expect her to be like this, and he actually calmed down for a moment, but the emotion in his eyes changed slightly. This woman might indeed be a pitiful person.
But after just a moment, he shook his head. How could such a stubborn woman give him such weak thoughts
"Please go back. After all, this place is now imprisoned by the emperor. I'm afraid it won't be long before the guards outside find something wrong." Shen Qingwan lowered her head with some disappointment. In Fu Huaiyu's eyes, he undoubtedly felt that this woman had lost all trust in the emperor, which made him feel that this woman could be used even more.
"Then you think about it first. If you figure it out one day, come back to me." The smile in his peach blossom eyes became more intense, as if to devour the person in front of him.
Shen Qingwan raised her head and met such a pair of eyes. Her heart trembled and she was absent-minded for a moment, but she immediately lowered her head, "Then the Ninth Prince can go back and rest. I won't see you off." Her voice became a little softer, which was very different from her usual self.
Fu Huaiyu glanced at her sitting on the bed, and evaluated her in his heart. This woman didn't seem so tough today. He touched his chin, and finally turned around and walked out.
He avoided the surrounding sight and returned to his own residence.
"Your Highness, have you gained anything?" Mo Zilian was already waiting inside the house. He had just returned from outside and was still dusty.
"Alas." She sighed in a formal manner, but there was no trace of sadness in her eyes. But she did not answer his question, but avoided the topic and asked him, "How are you doing? Did you get anything?"
Mo Zilian shook his head, "Not yet, but I already have some clues." He kept smiling, but there was a hint of deepness in his pupils. Things were not as simple as he imagined.
"Oh?" Fu Huaiyu smiled. It seemed that even his most capable subordinates were stumped. It seemed that he really encountered a difficult problem. The smile on his face became darker.
When Mo Zilian saw his expression, he knew that it seemed that he had to solve it himself.
"You stay here for a few days and help me keep an eye on the person in the palace." The person here is Fu Yuheng. Soon, there will be a good show to watch.
"Yes, yes, I will keep a close eye on those two in the palace..." He deliberately threw a wink over. It was not at all awkward for a grown man to throw a wink, but there was a hint of teasing in his expression.
He was talking about two people, and the other one, needless to say, is Shen Qingwan.
Fu Huaiyu rolled his eyes at him, but turned back into the house. When he came out again, he had changed his clothes and his face looked more serious.
"Leave."
After saying this, the man had already left the house, and Mo Zilian's task for the next few days was to play the role of a prince and help with surveillance. He was quite happy and relaxed.
In the Jinluan Palace, Fu Yuheng looked at the memorial in his hand with a stern expression, and suddenly slammed it heavily on the bright yellow table. The crown on his head also shook a few times, and then he pinched his nose with his hand.
In recent years, the government has always been stable, but during this period, riots have occurred one after another, and not just in one place. However, he has sent people to suppress some places and repel the enemy soldiers. However, there are still other places where riots are taking place, and the situation is getting worse and worse, and it seems that it is about to reach a point where it cannot be controlled.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please calm down." Eunuch Sun, who was standing by, was frightened and hurried forward to pour him some tea.
Fu Yuheng frowned and shook his head to refuse. The riots on the border would not only make the common people suffer, but also threaten the stability of the country. Once the enemy attacks the capital, I am afraid that the world will change hands.
"What do you think of this, my dear ministers?"
As a ruler of a dynasty, how could he be at ease? He opened his eyes and looked at the ministers below, feeling irritated.
"Shen Aiqing." He said solemnly. It seems that he is still needed for this matter! This matter is really not the right time.
"I am here." Upon hearing the emperor's words, General Shen knelt down and kowtowed heavily. He stood up and kneeled straight, looking as majestic as if he was on the battlefield.
"There is chaos on the border now. If it cannot be suppressed and eradicated as soon as possible, I am afraid..." He didn't need to say the rest. As a soldier, General Shen was more familiar with the border than he was. General Shen naturally understood what the emperor meant. At this time, he could only stand up. After all, Shen Qingwan was still in danger.
General Shen stopped talking and just watched the emperor write the imperial edict and hand it to Eunuch Sun beside him.
"General Shen, please accept the order." A harsh voice reached his ears and he knelt down again. Even if he wanted to stay out of it, how could he do it
"I will be here in the end."
"The Emperor, in compliance with the Will of Heaven, proclaims: Recently, the bandits have repeatedly caused chaos and disturbed the border. I am grateful to General Shen for his many years of experience on the battlefield and his undefeated victories. I have specially ordered you to personally go and wipe out the Japanese pirates and restore peace to our court. You are to set out today. I decree this."
"I obey your order." After another kowtow, General Shen accepted the order, then glanced at the emperor sitting on the throne and turned to leave.
Fu Yuheng looked at his departing back and didn't want to stay any longer, so he moved to the study.
Just thinking about the riots at the border, I still feel depressed. Now that Shen Qingwan's matter has not been clarified yet, General Shen has been sent out again. I am afraid that someone with ulterior motives will take this opportunity to cause trouble.
"Eunuch Sun, do you think I did something wrong? If I had not allowed her to enter the palace that day..." He sighed slightly, his expression becoming a little more gloomy.
Maybe it was really his fault, but that woman, huh, really made him a little confused, but so what
"Your Majesty, please don't say that." Sun Ning felt a little disappointed for a moment. He knew what he was thinking, but he couldn't blame him this time.
"Forget it, you go down, I'll be alone for a while." He closed his eyes, and Shen Qingwan's appearance appeared in his mind again, especially that day, when she was covered with scars, and her stubborn yet indifferent face yesterday that made him angry.
"Shen Qingwan, Shen Qingwan, what is the relationship between you and my ninth brother?"
