Shen Wei looked at the bright moonlight, with a dark light in her eyes: "I haven't seen my brother for a long time, I miss him so much."

The family will soon be reunited.

The eldest brother is a mighty general, the elder sister Shen Qiang is a large landowner who works as a farmer, Shen Wei is a palace concubine and a wealthy businessman, and the younger brother is a new noble in the court.

The Shen family is about to rise.

Of course, Shen Wei had to wake up the people in the Shen family. The Shen family seems to be at its peak and has a bright future, but they must remain sober and rational.

Only by not being greedy for merit and reckless, not being overbearing and domineering, not taking advantage of favor and getting proud, not participating in party struggles, and being loyal to the emperor, can the family remain standing and future generations prosper.

Of course, Shen Wei also had to prepare for the worst - the emperor was ruthless, and Li Yuanjing might also be afraid of the Shen family and attempt to destroy the Shen family and Shen Wei.

Then Shen Wei could only secretly plan and win over court officials, relying on the military power in Shen Mieyue's hands and her own financial resources to support her son's ascension to the throne.

...

The moonlight tonight is exceptionally bright, like spilled mercury, illuminating the official road leading to Yanjing City.

Chen Mieyue escorted the Yue State delegation and rested at a post station in the suburbs.

The post station was brightly lit.

Even though they were very close to Yanjing City, Chen Mieyue did not relax his vigilance and arranged fully armed soldiers to patrol to guard against attacks from bandits.

“Brother, please eat something.” Shen Xiuming brought a bowl of pork elbow, walked to the door of the post station, and handed it to Shen Mieyue.

Shen Mieyue sat on the wooden stool: “Thank you.”

Chen Xiuming smiled and said, "We are brothers, don't be so polite. Mother's carriage should be arriving in Yanjing soon. We will return to Beijing in two days, meet our two sisters, and have a reunion dinner with our family."

Due to a misdelivery of the message by a middleman, Shen Mieyue mistakenly believed that his entire family was killed by the Vietnamese army, and Shen's mother believed that her eldest son had died in battle.

Fortunately, with God's blessing, their family was reunited again.

Shen Mieyue slapped Shen Xiuming on the head: “You bastard, you actually got into the bad habit of gambling, causing my third sister to sell herself into slavery.”

Chen Xiuming held his head and cried, with a look of regret: "Brother, I have stopped gambling a long time ago! Don't mention the past! Third sister is now the noble concubine, and maybe she will be the noble concubine in the future. It can be said that the hardship has paid off."

Shen Mieyue glared at him: "The women in the harem are vicious. Third sister is simple and kind, and she can't even step on a grasshopper to death. How smooth can she be in the harem?"

Shen Xiuming kept his mouth shut and dared not speak.

There were so many beauties in the harem. Chen Wei was thrown into the mountains by the emperor for three years and was not brought back to the palace until half a month ago. It can be seen that the emperor does not care about Shen Wei, and he took Shen Wei back to the palace entirely for Shen Mieyue's sake.

The culprit who personally pushed Shen Wei into the abyss was Shen Xiuming.

Every time Shen Xiuming thought about it, he wanted to slap himself a few times. He really deserved to die.

He can only work hard to achieve political achievements and improve his official position. The higher his official position, the more support his sister in the palace has.

"Brother, you are just a warrior who has been guarding Liangzhou for many years, but you know the dangers of the harem?" Shen Xiuming asked curiously.

Chen Mieyue's face turned red: "Of course someone told me."

Shen Xiuming: "Who is it?"

Chen Mieyue coughed guiltily: "Don't worry about it."

Of course it was Sun Qingmei who told him.

Sun Qingmei is the daughter of the late General Sun. She joined the army and was as brave as any man. She became a heroic female general and fought many battles with Chen Mieyue.

Chen Mieyue and Sun Qingmei had been together in Liangzhou City for three years, and he had developed a crush on this brave and tenacious woman.

The warriors were straightforward, and Shen Mieyue boldly expressed his love, wanting to marry Sun Qingmei. But after expressing his love countless times, Sun Qingmei politely rejected him every time, which made Chen Mieyue very depressed.

She obviously likes me, why does she always reject me?

Women’s minds are really hard to understand.

"Report! General, there is a carriage on the official road heading towards the post station!" The patrolling soldier suddenly ran over to report. A plain little carriage drove onto the official road, startling the patrolling soldiers.

Chen Mieyue stood up with a knife in hand, his hawk-like eyes staring at the carriage vigilantly.

Where did the carriage come from in the middle of the night?

The carriage stopped and the soldiers patrolling outside the post station quickly drew their swords. The carriage stopped by the roadside, the grey curtain opened, and a slender figure walked down.

The moonlight was like white frost, illuminating the woman's pretty face. She was dressed simply and looked pretty. She looked over timidly and said stiffly, "My daughter Tan Tairou is here to look for Master Yan Yunting. Can you please pass the message to him?"

Tan Tairou is here.

Shen Mieyue's dark eyes were half-closed, but he still did not relax his vigilance, and his voice was deep: "Come here, go and ask General Yan to come, he said that an old friend is looking for him."

Someone immediately went into the room to pass on the message.

Yan Yunting had already rested in the post station. Upon hearing the attendant's message, Yan Yunting sat up from the bed.

Is there an old friend coming to see him?

Could it be...Princess Zhaoyang?

Yan Yunting hurriedly got up and dressed, quickly changing into a green robe and tidying up his hair. During the days away from Yanjing City, Yan Yunting missed Princess Zhaoyang and Tan Tairou every day.

But unfortunately, although Tan Tairou replied to every letter sent to Yanjing City, Zhaoyang did not reply to any of them.

The more Zhaoyang refused to believe it, the more anxious Yan Yunting became.

Who could have expected that Princess Zhaoyang would rush to the post station overnight to meet him in advance.

Yan Yunting raised the corners of his lips and hurried out of the post station.

The moonlight was like water. Tan Tairou was wearing thin clothes and standing alone in the moonlight. Yan Yunting was slightly disappointed, as he thought it was Princess Zhaoyang who came.

But seeing the affection in Tan Tairou's eyes, Yan Yunting still revealed a doting smile.

Time flies, but his Rouer still loves him as always.

"Brother Yunting!" Tan Tairou rushed over happily.
