In the morning, Fu Huaiyu had just left the Palace and went straight to the Fortune Mountain Pavilion. When the attendant saw him, he hurriedly came out to welcome him.
"Ninth Prince, you're here!" He went forward and laughed, his hand hidden in his sleeves, "Ninth Prince, this is the thing you dropped yesterday." Fu Huaiyu took out a hairpin and saw it. He knew that it was the osmanthus hairpin that Shen Qing Wan was wearing on her head yesterday.
"Reporting to Your Highness, that girl has already returned home. As for the matter that your esteemed self sent out, how could I dare to neglect it?" The attendant smiled in a fawning manner, but his heart was filled with excitement. He must have had a stroke of luck these two days. People came over to give him silver taels in succession.
"Your Majesty, this old subject has something he wishes to discuss with Your Majesty." After leaving the imperial court, General Shen stayed back. Gritting his teeth, he decided to give up some of his military power.
Following him all the way to the study room, General Shen's mood calmed down more and more. Forget it, letting him go at any time would be better than having his family members implicated. He never thought that at his age, he would not be able to see his own daughter's future.
"Your majesty, this old subject has already aged, and my body is no longer as healthy as it was in the past. Therefore, this old subject is willing to hand over the two hundred thousand soldiers in my hands to Your majesty. I hope Your majesty can accept this with a smile." He brushed his body and said what he wanted to say.
Fu Yuheng was surprised to hear him say this. Two hundred thousand yuan was a huge sum of money. He didn't think that he would hand over so much. He didn't know if he should say that he underestimated Shen Qingwan, or if she was too loyal to him or the Shen family.
However, he was shocked in his heart, and his expression remained as indifferent as water, "Has General Shen thought it through? "Once this military power falls into my hands, I will never be able to take it back." He looked at the person in front of him and said, "General Shen is obviously unwilling, Shen Qingwan's coercion might still be of some use."
"If you are unwilling, I will not force you." Noticing the hesitation in the other party's voice, Zhang Xuan's eyes turned cold.
"This subject has already made up his mind. I hope the Emperor can grant my wish." He sighed in his heart and was defeated in the end.
Fu Yuheng's eyes lit up. "Since that's the case, I'll grant your wish." "Go back!"
"This subject thanks the lord for his grace!" He knelt on the ground and retreated only when he saw the emperor allow him to rise. However, the moment he left the study, he felt his entire body go limp. Even though he was a martial general, his authority over the Emperor was not to be underestimated.
He wiped off the cold sweat on his forehead and felt exhausted.
Fu Yuheng reclined on his chair as he looked at the ceiling. He then thought of that person who had always seemed to be at peace with the world. How many people could match up to Prime Minister Shen with such meticulous planning when he brought out two hundred thousand soldiers? The admiration in his heart for her was not limited to just that. He got up and walked towards the harem.
"Greetings Ninth Prince." Shen Qingwan had just gotten up, but when she pushed open the door, she saw Fu Huaiyu standing in the courtyard.
Lian Yun walked over, "Empress, this servant wants to go in and call for you." When she saw the Ninth Prince coming over, she quickly stopped what she was doing. She wanted to go in and wake up the Empress, but she did not expect her to come out so quickly.
Shen Qing Wan walked forward gracefully as she inquired about the reason for his visit, and asked: "Ninth Prince, why have you come this time?"
While Shen Qing Wan and Fu Huaiyu were talking, they did not see a figure from the entrance of the courtyard.
"Reporting to the empress, the Ninth Prince is already gone." Ah Xiu lowered her body and reported to Xiao Shushen.
Xiao Shushen stood up, then turned and walked out the door as well, "Let's go, we'll go and see what the emperor is doing."
Just then, the emperor walked in from the outer courtyard and saw Xiao Shushen coming over.
"This concubine greets Your Majesty. May Your Majesty live for tens of thousands of years."
"Empress, where are you going?" Fu Yuheng lifted her up and looked in her direction doubtfully. It was clear that he was heading in the direction of his study.
Xiao Shushen covered her lips and laughed, "Your majesty doesn't know, chenqie just wanted to go see Consort Xian's sister. I coincidentally heard that Your Majesty was waiting here and wanted to go with you."
"Oh?" Fu Yuheng thought about what she had said and considered how believable her words were. "The empress has really thought it through."
was startled by these words, he only felt his heart tremble. "If the emperor doesn't want to go, then chenqie will go over first." She had no choice but to say such words. If the Emperor didn't go, then wouldn't her plan have been in vain?
"Since that's the case, I shall follow you." Fu Yuheng rolled his eyes, thinking that it would be fine even if he went to take a look. After all, he came here today to see Shen Qingwan.
"I forgot about your hairpin at Fushan Restaurant last time. Today, when the King of Japan went over, a servant just happened to deliver it to me." Fu Huaiyu played with the hairpin in his hand, and a few teasing looks appeared in his eyes, "This king has specially come to give it to you."
"Humph!" Ninth Prince is really in a good mood, and even specially came over to deliver something to my concubine. " Fu Yuheng let out a cold snort, causing Shen Qing Wan's heart to turn slightly cold. Looking at the bright yellow figure, there was indeed another person standing beside his. It was the current Queen, Xiao Shushen.
"That's right!" Today, the King of Japan is in an extremely good mood! "
