Chen Yu had been gone for more than half a year, but he wrote many letters back, all of which were full of rude words. Fu Ning just took one look at them and said "Pooh". She touched her belly and didn't expect that she was really pregnant.
This matter was kept secret from Shen Yu, fearing that he would be distracted on the front line.
The battle was difficult, but Shen Yu had the advantage of time, place and people. Most of the vassal kings were good-for-nothings. If they didn't have money and troops, and the three-way balance of power, they would have been defeated long ago.
Now Shen Yu had the support of huge wealth and strict military discipline. He was indeed a natural leader in battle, and the princes' armies were quickly defeated.
Two years later, Shen Yu returned triumphantly with his army. From afar, he saw two maids holding a child standing next to the little princess he had been thinking about day and night on the city gate. Shen Yu touched the jade pendant on his chest, which was broken. This jade pendant had blocked an arrow for him at the critical moment, but he had kept it a secret for fear that the little princess would worry.
Could it be that his little princess was also hiding something? The more Shen Yu thought about it, the more excited he became. He rode his horse at full speed and arrived at the foot of the city wall. Shen Yu dismounted, and his cloak fluttered with his rapid footsteps. Fu Ning blushed inexplicably. With so many people watching, his staring eyes were too embarrassing.
Chen Yu took two steps at a time and hugged Funing into his arms, sniffing her greedily. Fighting in the war was too hard. He was just a rough man every day, smelling of sweat. How could he compare to the fragrance of the little princess?
Fu Ning couldn't lose face and pinched him hard. Shen Yu smiled and let go. He moved his eyes to the sides and was stunned when he saw it.
The one-year-old boy looked exactly like Shen Yu, but the girl looked very much like Funing. Shen Yu took the girl in without hesitation and gave her a kiss. The little princess was pricked by his beard and started crying. Shen Yu was in a panic and returned the child to her.
Funing couldn't help laughing: "Okay, let's go home first."
Chen Yu's heart was filled with tenderness. Going home, yes, he had a home.
Funing named the two children, one named Shen Yanbai and the other Shen Wenxi. Shen Yu was uneducated and did not object. He hugged his daughters and kissed them non-stop. Wenxi quickly accepted him as her father.
In the afternoon, the two children were sleepy and were taken downstairs by their nanny to rest. Only then did Shen Yu cast his fiery gaze on the little princess. After giving birth, she seemed to have become much plumper.
Fu Ning felt hot all over when he was looked at, but he still pulled him to look at the wound first. Although the jade pendant blocked it, the arrow still penetrated an inch, which must be very painful. There were several scars on Shen Yu's body.
"The princess has had a difficult time giving birth. As her husband, I can't help her solve her problems. I can only check if there is anything wrong." Shen Yu stared at Funing dimly. "Princess, are you willing to undress and let me stop worrying?"
Bah! Fu Ning glared at the slick Chen Yu. "I haven't seen you for two years, and you've become more literary. Could it be that there's a beautiful woman around you who has made you more literary?"
Chen Yu suddenly smiled, picked up the sarcastic little princess and threw her onto the bed, "Princess, check to see if I have other women..."
The two of them stayed together until the evening. The child kept crying, so Fu Ning pushed away the man who was pestering her and got up to comfort the child.
Chen Yu lay there, his wife gently coaxing their two children. His heart was full, and he really wanted to live like this forever.
But after a short rest, he was about to go on another expedition. This time he planned to attack all the way north and not give the imperial court a chance to breathe.
......
When the capital was attacked, Shen Yu and Funing's son and daughter were already three years old.
Before Fu Ning left the palace, he left all the Dragon Shadow Guards to his younger brother. The nine-year-old emperor had become much more mature. Although he had no say, he at least knew who was good and who was bad.
The thing he looked forward to most every day was receiving a letter from his sister from the Dragon Shadow Guard. The little emperor hoped that his brother-in-law would come quickly to kill Xiao Chen and the others and avenge his mother!
Now that Shen Yu has finally arrived, the little emperor feels that this dark life will soon be over.
As for Xiao Chen, he knew he had been deceived as early as when he learned that Fu Ning had given birth to children for Chen Yu. He was really like a goose that pecked his eyes while hunting geese all day long. He thought the little princess was a fool, but he didn't expect her to be so scheming.
He thought about using the little emperor to threaten Fu Ning, but the elusive Dragon Shadow Guard showed up again. Xiao Chen quickly guessed that this must have been left by the little princess again. He didn't expect that the late emperor trusted his daughter so much and gave such an important token to a girl who was only twelve years old!
If he hadn't been surrounded by numerous secret guards and taken proper precautions, the Dragon Shadow Guards might have killed him long ago! Xiao Chen gritted his teeth. Even if the city was broken, he would take Funing and wash away the previous humiliation!
Now the imperial court was at the end of its strength, and Shen Yu took only one month to capture the capital.
The ministers were tied up and kneeling in the hall, looking at the little princess who had never been taken seriously by them. She was carefully held by Shen Yu. The caring look on her face was so unbelievable. Was this the famous General Shen?
The beauty trap worked, but the beauty had second thoughts! The ministers were filled with regret. They could never have imagined that the princess would even give up her brother's throne for revenge!
Everyone was waiting for Shen Yu to sit on the throne, but he held Funing's hand with one hand and the frightened little emperor with the other, and announced to everyone that he was clearing the court of corrupt officials and beheading treacherous ministers, and that he still supported the Great Yin dynasty. He hoped that everyone would wholeheartedly support the emperor to sit firmly on the throne, to ensure peace and prosperity in the country.
Except for Xiao Chen's people, most of them were loyal to the emperor. When they heard this, they immediately knelt down and cried bitterly. The little emperor was also very moved and looked at his brother-in-law with admiration. Fu Ning smiled. She had guessed it long ago. Chen Yu was actually a very easy person to figure out. Except for the unpredictable tactics of war, he could see through everything else at a glance.
Facing the throne without wavering, Fu Ning felt that she had chosen the right person. She hooked a finger in Shen Yu's palm and smiled with her eyes curved.
