Chapter 12 Nanyang Prefect

 With everyone working together, they searched almost every corner of the palace.

Finally found the traditional jade seal that was lost on the road.

Yuan Shu looked at the jade seal in his hand with joy. Finally, he no longer had to bear this huge blame, and he no longer had to be hung on the pillar of shame, like Zhao Kuo.

Without any hesitation, he quickly sent it to the Queen Mother's Palace and handed it over to Queen Mother He.

This thing must not stay in your hands, not even for a moment longer. Once any accident occurs, you will not be able to bear the consequences, whether it is an individual or a family.

"I wonder what reward I want from you?" Queen Mother He looked at the jade seal that had returned to her hands, and was so happy that she almost forgot about the pain in her body.

Empress Dowager He was very satisfied when she saw Yuan Shu who had personally retrieved the Imperial Seal and given it to her. She did not expect that the Tiger Guard would be so loyal and work so efficiently.

Looking at Yuan Shu's eyes, he showed his appreciation. Maybe he could increase his investment and let him rise steadily. It happened that his two brothers had passed away early. Now that he had the power, he still needed to find a few loyal people.

Stabilize the court for your son.

As Yuan Shu, who is always being watched, he is not so good.

What does the Queen Mother mean when she keeps staring at me and smiling?

How long has it been since the late emperor passed away? Did the Queen Mother He just think about it? No, no, no.

How could this happen to me?

Yuan Shu listened to the words Queen Mother He asked him, and thought about the way Queen Mother He looked at him just now. That look was completely wrong, and it was not a normal look at people at all.

We must leave the palace as soon as possible. It is best to leave Luoyang as soon as possible. This place is too dangerous and goes against the duty of the family.

"Such matters are the duties of ministers. How dare you use merit to claim rewards and ask the Queen Mother to make her own decision?" Yuan Shu saluted on the spot, then lowered his head even lower. As long as I couldn't see it, I would pretend it had not happened.

.

I didn't dare to look at the Queen Mother He with my own eyes, for fear that I would see something I shouldn't have seen, and then I would have no place to regret it.

Especially after a chaotic night, the Queen Mother He, who was dressed in silk, looked like the cool autumn breeze and the sad wind of war. Why didn't she change it?

When a gentleman performs etiquette, how can he turn his back on it and show his dignity as a member of a noble family?

"As expected of you, you are a member of the Yuan family. I remember where your hometown is?" Queen Mother He made a recalling expression. Is she really thinking about where the Yuan family is?

"Reporting to the Queen Mother, I live in Runan and have never changed." Yuan Shu responded on the spot, lest he cause trouble.

"I see, I remember you are now the Tiger King, right?" Queen Mother He put down the jade seal in her hand, with a cold light in her eyes.

"Reporting to the Queen Mother, my humble position is that of Lieutenant General Hu Ben." Yuan Shu continued to answer with his head lowered, ignoring the eyes that were always staring at his head.

"If I remember correctly, you should be my brother's subordinate." Queen Mother He stood up from his position and walked in front of Yuan Shu.

"Reporting to the Queen Mother, I did serve under the general in the past." Yuan Shu looked at the feet that suddenly appeared in his sight, and a cold sweat broke out behind him. It was obvious that his military power should be much higher than that of the Queen Mother.

Why am I so afraid of the woman in front of me?

"I heard the palace maid say before that when the eunuch killed my brother, he showed his head to you and said that my brother was rebellious. Then you directly attacked the palace gate, killed the eunuch and replaced my brother.

Taking revenge is considered a great achievement. How should I reward you?" Queen Mother He walked to Yuan Shu, also bent down, looking down at Yuan Shu's face, with a surprising look on his face.

Smile.

When Yuan Shu saw this, he felt all the hairs on his body stand up, and for the first time he became extremely wary of a woman's words.

This woman is very dangerous, very dangerous. If possible, Yuan Shu hopes that nothing happened today.

In this way, there is no need to face the smile of the woman in front of me. It is really frightening. It is worthy of making the late emperor feel afraid of women. No wonder that a woman can forcefully ascend to the position of queen with almost no family background.

And always hold it firmly in your hand.

"Your expression seems quite normal. If that's the case, it'll be easy to handle." Queen Mother He then put away her smile.

He moved his steps, completely ignoring the gaps in the silk, and returned to his position.

Picking up an edict, the palace maid who was still alive at the side quickly handed over the pen.

Empress Dowager He wrote the imperial edict on the rice paper on the spot, each stroke clear and clear.

After writing, he used the imperial seal, stamped it, and handed it to the palace maid aside.

The maid held the imperial edict in both hands and handed it to Yuan Shu. Seeing this, Yuan Shu could only hold it in both hands, and at the same time saluted Queen Mother He to express his gratitude.

"A copy of your reward will be made and handed over to the court. At that time, your position will be the same as the imperial edict. I hope you will be as loyal to the general and to me as you were yesterday. Don't worry, it won't be

I have treated you badly." Queen Mother He said softly, as if it was an insignificant matter.

"Thank you, Queen Mother, for the reward. I will keep my humble position in my heart." Yuan Shu said that he had heard nothing and didn't want to know anything.

How could Yuan Shu, who was born as the fourth generation and the third prince, surrender to the Queen Mother? What’s more, it’s not certain whether the Queen Mother will survive tomorrow. Who knows if something unexpected will happen to the two princes?

"Please take care of your health, Queen Mother, and resign from your humble position." Yuan Shu followed the imperial edict with both hands and prepared to resign on the spot.

The woman in front of me is too dangerous. Every moment she stays here is a battle between life and death.

It would be better to leave as soon as possible. This woman thinks too much. Once she truly steps on this boat, there will be no way out. As the fourth generation and the third prince, Yuan Shu does not need such help at all.

As the legitimate son of the family, he has enough connections and resources to push himself to the top. There is no need to rely on a woman who can hold on to his rights for who knows how long.

Yuan Shu walked out of the Queen Mother's palace and looked at the rising sun. The warm sunshine illuminated the land, dispelling the smell of blood in the palace and dispelling the shadow in Yuan Shu's heart.

Follow the road and walk to the outskirts of the palace to find your own soldiers, fulfill your promise, and give the rewards that should be given to the corresponding soldiers.

At the same time, he looked at the imperial edict in his hand, curious about the content inside. He slowly opened it with both hands and looked at the reward inside.
