Chen Yuan was stunned for a moment, then nodded. When he heard that his father was critically ill, he wanted to go and see him for the last time.
Shen Heng didn't want to talk about the Shen family anymore, so she asked him about some of the situation in Yuezhou. The atmosphere of their conversation suddenly became relaxed.
When Xie Jian came back in the evening, Chen Heng told him about Shen Yuan's visit.
"If he returns to the Shen family, the situation will only increase, not decrease. However, with his current abilities, he can handle it." Shen Yuan is no longer a young man who can be bullied. He has fought many battles with Si Qi in recent years and is a capable strategist and a decisive killer. Xie Jian added, "The emperor does not want to establish the position of prime minister. It should be the same as before, with only the Secretariat and the Ministry of Chancellery. In five days, Shen Yuan is expected to become the Minister of Chancellery."
"Really?" Chen Heng put her clothes for the four seasons into the box one by one, feeling happy for her younger brother. She thought of her younger brother, who had attempted suicide by the river when he was little. After overcoming that obstacle, he had achieved such success. "Thinking back to the past, who could have imagined this day?"
Xie Jian paused, his pen in hand, and looked at Ah Heng. "Yes, thinking back to the past, who could have imagined today? What would have happened to him without Ah Heng? Sister-in-law, what would have happened to Min'er?"
At this time, Li Hu and several guards came in and carried out several large wooden boxes at Chen Heng's feet. All the things would be transported from the secret passage tonight.
After writing the letter and handing it to Li Hu, Xie Jian instructed: "Once you get there, just follow what the letter says."
"yes."
"Aheng, what kind of person do you think Min is?"
Chen Heng was making the bed and looked up at him. This was the first time Xie Jian asked a woman about her feelings: "Yuqing is fine. What's wrong?"
"She and Peng went to the palace to pay homage to the Queen today. My people told me that she seemed to be interested in getting close to the Queen." Xie Jian didn't think much of the news when he received it. He just habitually thought about all the suspicious things several times. When he thought about it this way, he felt something was strange.
Although he and Min had only met a few times, she gave him the impression of being a very quiet person, not someone who would do such a thing. Although Wu Jin was now an official in the court, this position did not require her to negotiate anything for Wu Jin.
This is a bit strange.
Intentionally getting close to the Queen? Was it because of her reaction? Chen Heng thought about how Yu Qing had always kept her distance from everyone, not even showing it in front of Aunt Feng. It was unlikely that she would get close to the Queen. "Yu Qing has a very good personality and can chat with anyone."
Xie Jian nodded and didn't worry about it anymore. As long as Wu Jin wasn't hurt, nothing else mattered to him.
"Prime Minister." Li Hu came in again. "The books in the study are all packed. Do you want to pack the books on your desk as well?"
Xie Jian looked at the case files he had copied down and said, "Burn them all, leaving not a single piece of paper." They recorded what the officials had done when Liu Bei was in power. They were meant to help him understand himself and his enemy. Now that these officials were dead or in decline, they were of no use.
"Yes. Ma'am, what about these account books?"
Chen Heng was looking at Xie Jian's achievements with regret, not expecting that it would be her turn so soon: "Let's burn them too." Liu Gang quietly sold all the shops, and gave him the two small ones to run their business. Now all her assets have been transferred to where Xie Jian lives.
"yes."
Looking at the empty house, Shen Heng sighed inwardly and asked, "Ajian, are you really not going to tell Xuan Lang, Wu Jin and the others?"
"I won't say anymore. Otherwise I won't be able to get rid of it." Thinking of Meng Xuanlang crying with tears and snot, Xie Jian frowned, then smiled helplessly.
"Then I'm afraid we'll never see each other again in this life."
When their eyes met, there was reluctance in both of them. Yes, after more than ten days of ups and downs together and trusting each other, it would be unkind to leave without saying goodbye.
But Xie Jian's move was also for their own good.
On this day, before dawn, an ordinary, lightly loaded carriage was galloping happily towards the south.
