C102 Pray for peace

"Wan-Er, what did dad bring you?" In the midst of the confusion, everything that was familiar to him seemed to have returned.

"Father …" Shen Qingwan's eyes that were filled with tears widened in disbelief. The smiling and amiable person in front of her was her father, "Father, father, it's so scary. Wan'er had such a terrifying dream and dreamt of father …" Shen Qingwan suddenly threw herself into her father's embrace, holding back her tears for a long time.

"Silly girl, you're already so old yet you're still crying? Is daddy such a useless person? "Be good, Wan-Er. You must be strong." General Shen looked kind, his eyes full of love.

"Father …" Lian Yun waited worriedly at the side. After all, Shen Qingwan's current state of mind made people worry, and the current her, who was in her sleep, was not at all stable. She did not consciously rest, and even the pillow with the Luan flying inside was covered with tears.

The sun rose, dispelling the unease he had that night. Seeing that Shen Qingwan was still asleep, Lian Yun went to prepare some breakfast.

Shen Qingwan slowly sat up from the bed. Her black hair that was scattered all over the place revealed the paleness on her face.

After she finished washing up, Shen Qingwan's gaze turned deep. Outside the window, there was a beautiful sky. That pure blue color seemed to cause all the sadness in the room to disappear.

Shen Qingwan had now returned to her usual temperament. It seems that the panicked appearance from yesterday was merely a momentary illusion.

Shen Qingwan could only pray in her heart that her father would be blessed by the gods and that nothing bad would happen to him.

Seeing how things were right now, Lian Yun who was serving by the side was filled with worry, but she was unable to help.

"Empress, it's time to eat." Lian Yun called out softly from the side, but Shen Qingwan seemed to be immersed in her own world at the moment, and there was not even the slightest reaction, "Empress, if you don't use food, this taste would be unpleasant. Now that you are wasting your own body, if General Shen knows about this, how much pain will she feel in her heart? "

Now that Shen Qing Wan was like this, Lian Yun felt extremely uncomfortable in his heart, even his voice was choked with sobs.

"Lian Yun..." It seemed to be an endless ethereal, so ethereal that it made one's heart ache.

Lian Yun hurried forward, and the Empress' entire body was wrapped in grief, "Empress …"

"Tell me, father will definitely be fine, right?" Shen Qingwan's eyes were a little empty.

Hearing that, Lian Yun was startled, but she quickly nodded her head, "It will, General Shen is my pillar, it will definitely be fine. Empress, quickly eat, or else the general will come back …"

"Alright." Shen Qing Wan looked into the distance and actually didn't make a sound for a while. After a long while, she just came back to her senses and replied softly.

This day was destined to not be peaceful.

On the other side.

"Giddy up!" The sound of the hooves of the horses tore the quiet street apart. The loud sounds of the horses roaring towards the sky brought with it a proud aura as they came to a steady halt.

Fu Huaiyu nimbly got off the horse, and with a "shua" sound, he waved his fan slightly. The interest in his eyes became even stronger.

"Heh, looks like this game of chess is even more interesting." A trace of light flashed in the eyes of the slightly perked peach blossom.

Currently, the matter regarding Hu Youshan had been put to one side for the time being. After all, when it was time to come, no one could stop him.

"Ninth Prince." When Prime Minister Liu saw the newcomer, he hastily went ahead and gave his official's gift with a smile.

Fu Huaiyu also put away his fan, and the corner of his mouth slightly curled up, "Prime Minister Liu." Actually, with regards to the Prime Minister Liu's choice, he had already come to a decision in his heart, so there was nothing strange about it.

"When I heard that Prince Hu Youshan was assassinated, this official is also very worried." Prime Minister Liu waved his hand and a pot of good tea was served.

Fu Huaiyu picked up the cup of tea and took a sip, yet the corner of his eyes did not seem to care about it at all, "Heh, just some unsightly fellows, alright?

"But who found out?" Prime Minister Liu asked.

He put down the cup in his hand and said, "Perhaps this king is in the way and someone can't wait anymore and wants to take this opportunity to clean up this king. Many thanks to Prime Minister Liu for your concern. This king will take care of these small matters." The corner of Fu Huaiyu's eyes had a look of contemplation, "Now, Prime Minister, is there anything to worry about?"

"Haha, as expected of the Ninth Prince. He can't get away with this pair of Fiery Eyes of Truth." Prime Minister Liu was startled at first, then laughed out loud.

"Ninth Prince, I truly troubled you. I still remember that Ninth Prince said that he could help my daughter …" After all, to the person in front of him, he always felt that he was too strange, and could not even guess what he was thinking.

"This king will take the relationship between Prime Minister Liu and this king very seriously. Prime Minister, do not worry too much." Fu Huaiyu slightly bent his elbow, and caressed his chin with his slender fingers. He could guess what the person in front of him was thinking, and it also allowed him to eat a peace of mind pill.

"If that's the case, then thank you, Your Highness." The Prime Minister Liu cupped his hands together. Honestly speaking, he felt that this Ninth Prince's promise was trustworthy, so the two chatted for a bit more. Fu Huaiyu did not disturb them any further and said his goodbyes.

The capital was different from before.

Fu Huaiyu's eyes that were filled with laughter, turned and looked thoughtfully into the depths of the Peach Blossom. A flash of killing intent passed through, but it was concealed well by Fu Huaiyu and not detected by the person hiding in the darkness.

In the queen's palace.

Beautiful phoenix hairpins of various colors, carrying the power of the harem.

Xiao Shushen's fingertip gently streaked across and picked one up from the top quality sandalwood box. She carefully examined it, and found that it was indeed exquisite, especially that Feng Ao's faint cry, which made people unable to let go of it.

She gently pushed it into her hair and looked at herself in the mirror for a long time. Her enchanting red lips curled up into a charming smile, which captivated the soul. "All of you, step back."

"Yes."

Before long, Xiao Shushen was the only one left in the empty chamber, "Speak." Xiao Shushen looked at herself in the copper mirror and started to dress up.

"Empress, Ninth Prince has returned to the capital." A deep voice came from behind, without any emotion.

Xiao Shushen's face had a smile on it, but taking advantage of the person in the copper mirror, she became even more radiant, "Oh, I never expected that. Keep an eye on them. If you have any news, report it to me in time. " His voice sounded a little lazy, as if she wasn't really thinking about it.

"Yes." The person behind him received his fate and fell silent.

In the copper mirror, there was a strange, chilling smile.
