Chapter 407: Draft

Gu Jingchun pointed to the third prince's courtyard with a trembling voice.

"So, can you hear the sound over there?"

Shen Hechuan nodded.

"I can hear it!"

But he frowned again.

"Very annoying."

Gu Jingchun's body trembled.

He seemed to have said the same thing in his previous life.

Because she felt annoyed, she specifically asked the Queen Mother to treat her.

It gave her a moment of comfort.

And now, he also said, "I'm so annoyed."

So does that mean...

Gu Jingchun suddenly didn't dare to ask.

But she still looked into Shen Hechuan's eyes and asked him seriously.

"and you……"

Shen Hechuan raised his eyebrows and looked at Gu Jingchun carefully.

He didn't know why, but Gu Jingchun was very strange today, both in his expression and in the sudden question.

"Me what?"

He saw that Gu Jingchun's face was pale and full of worry.

"What should I do?"

Gu Jingchun's voice was a little trembling.

"What do you think she's noisy?

Chen Hechuan paused for a moment, then suddenly remembered that the Third Prince's wife seemed to be Gu Jingchun's sister, and he couldn't help but hesitate for a moment.

"I……"

"She was being too noisy, so I ordered someone to silence her."

"I remember she bullied you before. Are you still going to be soft-hearted towards someone like that?"

As Shen Hechuan spoke, he observed Gu Jingchun's expression.

Seeing Gu Jingchun burst into tears after he finished speaking, he suddenly became a little flustered.

"What's wrong with you?"

"Why are you crying again?"

"If you care about your sister, I'll send someone to help her. Why are you crying?"

But Gu Jingchun shook his head.

"No, no need."

"I don't feel sorry for her, I just feel sorry for myself."

Having said that, she threw herself directly into Shen Hechuan's arms.

Because the force was too great, Chen Hechuan took a step back before he could stabilize himself.

"Chen Hechuan, thank you."

"Thank you so much."

Gu Jingchun hugged Shen Hechuan tightly, and the tears in his eyes soaked Shen Hechuan's clothes.

At first, Chen Hechuan was very happy because Gu Jingchun threw himself into his arms.

"Why are you thanking me all of a sudden?"

But after feeling the wetness on her chest, she immediately wanted to look down to check, but was stopped by Gu Jingchun.

"Don't move, don't ask, let me hold you quietly."

After hearing this, even though Shen Hechuan was confused, he did not move and just hugged her quietly.

At this time, Lan Xin just turned her back and stood far away, giving the two of them enough space.

Chen Hechuan waited until Gu Jingchun calmed down before asking.

"What's going on?"

Gu Jingchun shook his head.

"Nothing, I just suddenly felt that you are very good, really very good, and I am really lucky to meet you again."

Shen Hechuan couldn't help but gently wiped Gu Jingchun's nose.

"Now you know how good I am. Who was it that wanted to run away in the first place?"

Shen Hechuan's face was full of pride, but Gu Jingchun acted like a rogue.

"I don't know... Now that you're back, when do you plan to start attending court?"

Chen Hechuan: "Tomorrow!"

"Today, I have spread the news of my recovery. I will naturally be able to attend court tomorrow."

******

The next day, it was dawn.

The ministers dressed neatly and walked into the hall.

Accompanied by a cry of "Long live the emperor!"

Chen Hechuan also slowly appeared in front of everyone.

"My dear ministers, please stand up."

Shen Hechuan spoke, looking at the ministers in the hall, with a bit more scrutiny in his eyes.

After Chen Hechuan sat down, the ministers came to the court and first expressed their concern for Chen Hechuan and asked him to take good care of his health.

He also very cleverly praised Gu Jinxi and the Queen Mother.

Only then did he talk about what happened during this period.

After Chen Hechuan had dealt with all these matters, he raised his hand.

Two imperial edicts were directly issued.

In fact, the first one was to demote those ministers who should be demoted and promote those who should be promoted during this period.

The second imperial edict summoned Jiang Chongfan and Jiang Qingshan and assigned them official positions.

This move caught Jiang Chongfan off guard.

After all, although he had returned during this period of time and the Queen Mother had spoken to him several times, she had never mentioned the matter of an official position.

He thought that even if Chen Hechuan came back, he would naturally have to summon him before making a decision.

But unexpectedly, Shen Hechuan directly decided his official position.

Jiang Chongfan knelt on the ground, respectfully accepted the order, and kowtowed to express his gratitude for the great grace.

"I obey your order."

Chen Hechuan stood up directly, walked to Jiang Chongfan, and personally helped Jiang Chongfan up.

"Uncle, please get up quickly."

"I've been very ill lately and have neglected my uncle. I wonder if he's getting used to living here now?"

Jiang Chongfan quickly stood up and saluted.

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I am doing fine."

As he spoke, he looked up again, as if he was looking at Shen Hechuan carefully.

"Thanks to your Majesty for still remembering me..."

"To have your Majesty's care and concern is worth it even if I die now."

Chen Hechuan: "I still rely on you to help me, uncle, how can you easily say death!"

As he said this, he shouted loudly.

"Come here, please take a seat!"

Suddenly, the ministers looked at each other.

After all, so far, Jiang Chongfan is the only one who has been given the honor of a seat in the court.

It can be seen that Shen Hechuan values ​​the Jiang family.

Suddenly, the ministers looked at Jiang Chongfan with more respect.

However, Old Master Wang and Luo Kejin did not think so.

After all, the official position that Shen Hechuan gave to Jiang Chongfan was not an important one, and it did not have much power.

From this, it can be seen that Shen Hechuan does not completely trust the Jiang family.

However, some people did not see through it.

For example, Situ Qinghe.

When he saw how much Chen Hechuan valued the Jiang family, he knew he had made the right move and stepped forward first.

"Your Majesty, it has been six months since the late emperor passed away. The most urgent task now is to put the selection on the agenda."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone nodded.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the most urgent task now is to expand our family."

After all, among the ministers nowadays, who wouldn't want to send his daughter to the palace to maintain the power of the family?

Therefore, everyone naturally nodded in agreement to Situ Qinghe's proposal.

Without waiting for Shen Hechuan to speak, the time for the audition was almost set.

Chen Hechuan curled his lips and smiled.

"My dear ministers, you have reminded me."

"Since we want to have more children, then the most urgent thing should be to put the selection of a queen on the agenda. After all, without a queen, who can preside over the selection?"

The ministers who had wanted to refuse could not help but shut their mouths after hearing this.
