Shen Chenyu helped the prince deal with the business, and returned to the inner city in his own carriage. He has been busy these days and has not rested for a long time.
Fortunately, the prince's own ability is not bad, as long as the rest is done according to the previously arranged procedures, there will be no accidents.
Today's fifth prince is nothing to be afraid of. As for how the prince will deal with the fifth prince in the future, Shen Chenyu doesn't intend to interfere too much.
Although the prince promised to give him a regent, Shen Chenyu didn't really want to be a regent. He didn't like to work hard, and he wanted a regent just for a guarantee.
So as long as he and Mu Linting are not involved, Shen Chenyu will support most of the prince's decisions in the future.
...
As soon as the Shen family's carriage arrived at the door, someone notified the masters in the backyard. Shen Liushi immediately asked people to prepare dinner. It was rare that Mu Linting was at home today, and the whole family had a lively meal together.
When Shen Weiqing heard the news, she was teasing her young brother with Aunt Yang and the others. As soon as he heard his father came back from outside, he ran out to pick him up.
Shen Zizhui was having fun with his brother at first, but he didn't expect his brother to turn around and disappear. The little guy was stunned for a moment, then looked pitifully at Mu Linting.
Seeing this, Mu Linting chuckled, then put down the things in his hands, and reached out to hug the little guy.
Seeing this, Aunt Yang and the others on the side felt a little terrified. Because Mu Linting doesn't know how to hold a child at all, every time he holds a child, a group of people can't help but feel scared.
Mu Linting himself didn't feel this way, and even felt that he held the child well. After all, when Shen Weiqing was young, he and Shen Chenyu were the ones who took care of the children.
At that time, the two and a half couples raised Xiaoroubao clumsily for a period of time, and they made Xiaoroubao fat for nothing.
To be honest, Little Roubao was really fateful, whether Mu Linting gave birth to him with dystocia and hemorrhage, or the whole family almost froze to death in the winter night.
When Mu Linting chased Shen Zi out with his arms in his arms, the light rain outside became heavier. When Shen Chenyu came back with Shen Weiqing, she saw Mu Linting holding the child in one hand and waiting in the yard with an oil-paper umbrella in the other.
Seeing him coming back, Aunt Xue Lian next to him smiled and said, "My lord, the old lady said that I will have dinner with her today."
When Shen Chenyu heard the words, she nodded at the other party from a long distance away. Immediately, he reached out and patted Shen Weiqing on the head, telling him to go to his grandmother with an umbrella first.
Seeing this, Shen Weiqing's beautiful eyes slightly curved, and then she hummed softly. He knew what his father was thinking, and he must have missed his father, so he deliberately distracted him so that he could get closer to his father.
Sometimes children are like this. While feeling that it is good for their father and daddy to be close, they can't help being a little jealous at the same time.
After Shen Weiqing left with a small umbrella, the other servants in the yard were also very knowledgeable, and they all found something to do and dispersed one by one.
After the whole yard became quiet, Shen Chenyu walked under Mu Linting's umbrella, and then walked back holding the other's hand.
As Shen Chenyu walked, she told Mu Linting about the recent events. In fact, most of the things are clear to Mu Linting. Because he has placed people around the prince, even if Shen Chenyu doesn't tell him, someone will tell him.
But even so, Mu Linting also likes to listen to Shen Chenyu. Because Shen Chenyu's voice is not only nice, but the other party's tone of voice to him is also very gentle.
Even if most of what the other party said was official, as long as the other party used such a voice and tone, Mu Linting would never tire of listening to it.
Shen Chenyu changed her official uniform, and then took Mu Linting to Shen Liu's courtyard. Passing by a place with stagnant water on the road, Shen Chenyu didn't want Mu Linting to get his shoes dirty, so she walked over there with one arm around while there were no servants around.
Mu Linting wanted to say that he was not so delicate, but after seeing that there was no one around, he couldn't help but indulge Shen Chenyu for a while.
But the person picked him up, but Shen Chenyu didn't let him down immediately, but lifted Mu Linting very childishly.
When he finally put the man down, Shen Chenyu kissed Mu Linting gently on the lips. Shen Chenyu is not too young now, but her personality is still a little childish as before.
Mu Linting felt the fleeting temperature on his lips, and his light-colored eyes trembled uncontrollably. He really wanted to deepen the kiss regardless, but he still suppressed his impulse when he thought of the environment they were in.
When the two were about to reach Shen Liu's courtyard, Shen Chenyu couldn't help but said, "Don't you ask me, why did you do that just now?"
Mu Linting lowered his eyes when he heard the words, then lowered his voice and whispered in Shen Chenyu's ear: "I know, when you hugged me once before, you almost couldn't hug me because of your poor health. After that...you have been doing this for this matter all the time. brooding."
Shen Chenyu's ears slowly turned red when she heard Mu Linting's words. As if angry and intentional, he squeezed Mu Linting's wrist tightly, and then said in a slightly angry tone: "More than that, I still remember the thing you beat me to the ground. Husband, I have been suffering recently. Practicing magic skills, just wait for a good competition with Fu Lang tonight, and then I will let Fu Lang experience the power of a husband."
After Shen Chenyu put down his harsh words, he stepped into the courtyard first Mu Linting. Mu Linting looked at the tall and straight figure of someone in the rain, feeling annoyed and ashamed for a moment.
Of course he understood what Shen Chenyu meant, it was nothing more than... nothing more than that little shit. I really thought that he would be afraid that he would fail, anyway, it was Shen Chenyu who suffered every time.
Mu Linting, who was thinking like this, couldn't help feeling very funny, so he laughed softly as he walked into the yard.
For the next few days, Shen Chenyu left early and returned late. Because the fifth prince still couldn't bear it, he still took the opportunity to make a fuss over this matter.
However, since Shen Chenyu had already made preparations, even if there was an accident, there would be no big loss, but it would make the emperor dislike the fifth prince even more.
Foreign envoys are a major event, not only related to the face of the country, but also related to the interest relationship between countries.
Now that the fifth prince is so disregarding the overall situation, not only did he lose the emperor's heart, but also made many ministers feel that the fifth prince is difficult to take on a big responsibility.
When April was approaching, a plague broke out in a small county near the capital, and the people around were panicked for a while.
The ancient plague was very terrible, so when the plague happened, almost no minister was willing to preside over the overall situation. So Shen Chenyu asked the prince to take over the burden, and then went to that county with the prince.
Now that the prince's status is basically stable, it stands to reason that he shouldn't take risks at this time, but Shen Chenyu still let the other party go.
Even the prince was afraid in his heart, but when he heard Shen Chenyu let him go, the prince immediately volunteered without hesitation.
Originally, most of the emperor's impressions of the prince came from Shen Chenyu and Mu Linting. Now seeing the crown prince taking the lead, the emperor couldn't help but look at him differently.
Although everyone knew in their hearts that the reason why the prince dared to go was because Shen Chenyu was confident, but their trust in each other was still enviable.
When Shen Chenyu and the others arrived at the small county, Shen Chenyu discovered that the plague this time was not terrible, and he happened to have a rescue method in his hand.
However, because he gave too many things, it was not easy to control even the plague, so he gave the prince a prescription through a beggar.
When the prince was in full swing to save people, Shen Chenyu added spiritual spring water to the government's porridge and medicine in order to prevent the epidemic from spreading.
With the help of Lingquan water, this massive plague was quickly suppressed. Except for those people who died before, no one died after the prince came to the small county.
For the more superstitious ancients, this is equivalent to telling the people all over the world that this prince is their real dragon emperor.
When the emperor heard the news, his first reaction was to be furious. Because such a loud voice, isn't it just a disguised form of coercion?
The previous Seventh Prince forced the throne, through his relatives and by surprise, trying to use force to depose the emperor.
Today's Lao Ba is smarter, because he doesn't have to do anything himself, and the people in the world will help him persecute the emperor.
But what can he do if he is angry, can he abolish the crown prince, or kill Shen Chenyu? No matter which one it is, the emperor has no way to do it.
Even the Fifth Prince, who never believed in fate, couldn't help but look depressed after hearing the news.
In August of the same year, Shen Chenyu and the prince returned to the capital.
Not waiting for Shen Chenyu to unite with many ministers, almost all the power was handed over to the prince.
When the emperor handed over power this time, the old lady Fu contributed a lot of credit. Because just before the two returned to the capital, the old matriarch went to the palace three times in succession, and only after three times did he persuade the emperor to surrender his power slowly.
Although the emperor felt that he was still young, he could still be in power for more than ten years. But instead of fighting with the most promising old eight for the past ten years, it is better to take the initiative to delegate power and become a noble emperor.
There is nothing wrong with the Supreme Emperor, as long as he has no serious mistakes, Lao Ba and Shen Chenyu dare not do anything to him, after all, these two people care about reputation.
I don't know which sentence the old master said, which suddenly pierced the emperor's heart. After thinking about it for two days and two nights, the emperor still listened to the teacher's words and began to let go slowly.
In September of the same year, the fifth prince was crowned king and left the capital in late September.
After the fifth prince left the capital, several other princes also became kings one after another in the next few months, and even the youngest Twelve Princes also went to the fiefdom.
When it was the end of another year, Shen Chenyu came out of the palace in a soft sedan chair, and was planning to go to Fuyuexuan to buy a pastry for her child.
Unexpectedly, on the way, he was blocked by a crazy little beggar. The little beggar looked about eight or nine years old. He only wore a pair of shabby clothes in winter, with one dirty foot still exposed.
Seeing this, the bearer hurriedly drove away the other party, fearing that the other party would accidentally offend the nobleman, and the little guy would be too hungry to walk around.
In the end, the little beggar was not afraid, and he just raised his head and shouted to the people in the sedan chair: "My lord, help me, Lord Qingtian, help me!"
With the cries of the little beggar, the originally deserted street became lively. Some passers-by also stopped to see what happened.
Before a group of people surrounded the place, someone recognized the family emblem on the sedan chair. "Huh? Isn't this Mr. Shen's sedan chair?"
"It turned out to be Mr. Shen's sedan chair. No wonder this little guy dared to go up. If it were any other adult, there would be no chance for the other party to shout."
Most of the common people are afraid of Mr. Guan, but Mr. Shen is completely different, because he is famous for his good temper and good manners.
Originally, the bearers wanted to chase away people, but they were stopped by Xiangmo who was beside them. Xiangmo stepped forward to help the little beggar, and after asking what happened to the little beggar, he turned back and told the people in the sedan chair what had happened.
As the car curtain was gently lifted, a handsome man in official uniform came out. The other party had an extremely beautiful face, and when he came out, the surroundings were silent for a moment.
