The head of the government glanced at Mu Huaicheng, a little puzzled. "General Mu, this..."
"I wonder which maid exposed it?" Mu Huaicheng said calmly.
"It's a slave. I saw the general taking the saint away with my own eyes." The slave girl said in a low voice. "If the general refuses to admit it, let me go to Princess Chaoyang's courtyard and have a look."
"The princess is still resting, how can I allow you to come and disturb her?" Mu Huaicheng's lieutenant said coldly.
"General Mu, the affairs of Princess Chaoyang concern the people of both countries. It is of great importance and I have offended you." The person from the government office said coldly and motioned to the arrester beside him.
"A small Shouyang County government official dares to be so unreasonable to our general. How courageous." The deputy general stopped him.
Mu Huaicheng never spoke. If he wanted Chaoyang to escape smoothly, he would have to delay for a while.
"Your Majesty has ordered that the Princess of Chaoyang County and Princess Chaoyang are running around all night yesterday, so you'd better not disturb them," Mu Huaicheng threatened coldly.
"What are you afraid of, General?" The official sneered, holding Shen Qingzhou's Prime Minister's Order in his hand. "This is the Prime Minister's Order. Everything is focused on the people at the border. Please get out of the way, General."
"Prime Minister?" Mu Huaicheng smiled, stood up and took out the imperial order that Xiao Junze gave him before leaving. "In Mr. Liu's eyes, it is the Prime Minister who makes the decision in Fengtian?"
Xiao Junze knew from the beginning that Chaoyang was leaving.
From the very beginning, I planned to let him leave Chaoyang.
The faces of the government officials darkened. They did not expect that His Majesty would give Mu Huaicheng an imperial order.
In this case, they have no right to search.
"Then just wait! When Princess Chaoyang wakes up, I'll see you off!" The government official narrowed his eyes. He didn't believe that Mu Huaicheng could stay in the capital of the government forever!
As long as Princess Chaoyang did not show up, they would arrest Mu Huaicheng for treason.
If Mu Huaicheng leads his people to resist, it will be a rebellion.
Raising troops to rebel? This is the crime of killing all the nine tribes and destroying the whole family!
…
Kyoto, Imperial City, Kunning Palace.
"Father, how is the emperor's condition?" Shen Yunrou sat next to Shen Qingzhou and spoke again in a low voice. "If he dies..."
"It depends on whether he can see the sun tomorrow." Shen Qingzhou put down the tea cup in his hand and glanced at Shen Yunrou. "Now that she is the queen of the palace, you can decide for yourself what you should say and what you should not say."
"Father..." Shen Yunrou bit the corner of her lip. "Xiao Junze never came to my daughter's room. If my daughter had Long Zi at this time, he would be dead as well."
"Queen, be careful what you say." Shen Qingzhou frowned.
"What are you afraid of, father? This palace is full of my daughter's own people, not to mention... my father devoted himself wholeheartedly to the late emperor, and more than half of what Fengtian is today is due to you, father. Why should the Xiao family sit back and enjoy the success?"
Shen Yunrou was a little unwilling. "If something happens to the emperor, my father might as well rebel and our Shen family can reorganize the court."
Shen Qingzhou's face darkened and he looked at Shen Yunrou for a long time.
This daughter... is too ambitious.
Not necessarily, it’s a good thing.
"Remembering your current status, do you really think that everyone can sit in that position?" Shen Qingzhou stood up and spoke again. "Instead of being unwilling to give up when you have time, it is better to think about how you will go on in the future, father.
It’s impossible to take care of you all my life.”
"Father!" Seeing that Shen Qingzhou had just arrived and was about to leave, Shen Yun stamped her feet softly.
Growing up, her father seemed to dote on her, and she was the only eldest daughter of the Shen family to the outside world.
But only Shen Yunrou knew that Shen Qingzhou didn't love her mother, let alone her.
In Shen Qingzhou's eyes, her daughter... seemed like an ornament.
All she needs to do is put it there and let everyone know that she is the eldest daughter of the Shen family...
"Father, with your talents, what can you do even if you are the emperor of Fengtian? Why have you been running away?" Shen Yunrou chased after him. "Now that Bai Li is dead, what are you still expecting, father? Don't you? See? That woman was just using you from the beginning to the end!"
Her father had been smart all his life, but he was confused about Bai Li.
"Pah!" Shen Qingzhou raised his hand and gave Shen Yunrou a slap in the face. "Even if you are a queen now, you still have to know what it means to have trouble come from your mouth! It is not your turn to interfere with your father's affairs!"
Shen Qingzhou's eyes were full of coldness, which made Shen Yunrou's body shiver involuntarily.
"In the past few years, you have been unruly and willful, and have made people hurt me many times. I thought about your young and willful way without discipline, and you have become even more aggressive!" Bai Li was trapped in the Shen family, and Shen Yunrou made people hurt Bai Li many times. , he turned a blind eye. "Don't think that your little cleverness can hide it from your father's eyes. What did Bai Li have someone say to her before she took the poison? Do you want me to read it to you one by one?"
Chen Yunrou's breathing suddenly froze and she took a step back in panic.
She thought she was smart enough to take her father into account...
Unexpectedly, Shen Qingzhou knew about it.
He knows everything...
"Father..." her voice was trembling. Shen Yunrou didn't even pay attention to Xiao Junze. She was indeed afraid of Shen Qingzhou from the bottom of her heart.
This man who looks like he doesn't fight for anything is actually terrifying.
"Sit firmly in your position as queen and give birth to a legitimate son for Your Majesty. As long as you don't stretch your hands too far, my father will always protect you." Shen Qingzhou warned Shen Yunrou deeply, and sit in the position of queen. Above, after giving birth to a prince, there may be a chance to sit in the position of queen mother.
It is not a good thing for a woman to be too ambitious.
"Yunrou will follow your father's teachings." Shen Yunrou's eyes turned red. Seeing Shen Qingzhou leave, she took a deep breath.
Clenching her hands so tightly that they were shaking, Shen Yunrou smashed all the objects on the table into pieces as if to vent her anger.
Who does she mean to Shen Qingzhou!
"The Queen...the Prime Minister may just be worried about your safety." The maid nervously reassured her.
"Worried about me?" Shen Yunrou smiled. "He only has eyes for that vixen and that bitch!"
Except for Baili, he can take everyone else seriously!
"Outsiders all say that Prime Minister Shen loves his wife deeply and never marries her. He dotes on his daughter, the apple of his eye... ha..." Shen Yunrou smiled.
Only she, Shen Yunrou, knew that this was a joke!
In Shen Qingzhou's eyes, there was no room for other women except Baili.
Her mother was just a victim given to him by Emperor Long.
If her mother hadn't used unfair means to get her...she wouldn't even have a chance to exist!
…
Shouyang, business travel team.
Chaoyang had a severe headache and woke up in a strange carriage. "Where is this..."
"Girl, are you awake? General Mu ordered us to take you away from Fengtian." Beside him was a young man who looked honest.
Chaoyang shook his head vigorously and looked out the car window.
I haven’t left Shouyang yet…
She can't leave. If she leaves...
Mu Huaicheng will definitely be convicted.
How could Shen Qingzhou miss such a good opportunity? He would take this opportunity to attack the Mu family and bring harm to the entire Mu family.
"girl?"
"girl!"
Seeing the rising sun, he jumped out of the carriage without looking back.
The whole caravan stopped.
Chaoyang grabbed the man's horse behind him and rushed to the government office.
…
"I didn't want to run away but ran back. The daughter of the former Saint of the Western Regions is nothing more than this?" In the backyard of the mansion, Chaoyang climbed over the wall and entered, and heard a mocking voice from above.
Crisp and sweet.
With his heart tightening, Chaoyang slowly tightened his grip on the dagger in his sleeve.
Her hearing was naturally sensitive, but she was completely unaware of this woman.
This person's skills may not be as good as her mother's.
