Xihe's plan to accompany Song Qianru to southern Xinjiang has been temporarily put on hold. She wants to see what Prince Yu's Mansion wants to do?
As a result, there was no movement in Prince Yu's Mansion for several days. Just when everyone was confused and wondered whether Prince Yu's Mansion had given up the idea, they learned that the emperor actually planned to send Master Shen Er to Donghai as a military supervisor!
Is the emperor crazy to send a civil servant, and a second-rank official at that, to the battlefield?
Lord Cheng cupped his hands and chuckled, "Lord Shen is a loyal minister of our dynasty, helping Your Majesty solve problems and worries. We are no match for him, we are no match for him."
The little mustache on his mouth twitched, and his eyes were full of gloating.
Lord Xu was furious: "Cheng He, you traitor! It was clearly you who went to the East China Sea! Why did it become Lord Shen? Did you do this?"
The East China Sea was at war with Ryukyu at the time. The emperor had already decided on the person in the court two days ago, but he suddenly changed the person early this morning.
No ghosts? How is that possible?
Lord Cheng raised an eyebrow and said, "Xu Wei, please don't talk nonsense. How can I, an official, influence His Majesty's decision?" He bowed towards the palace and said, "Since His Majesty has pointed to Lord Shen, he naturally favors you more!"
"Sir Shen, I wish you a safe return."
He bowed to them with a forced smile and walked away feeling refreshed.
Everyone looked at him happily catching up with Prince Yu and others in front of him, and their faces suddenly darkened. They looked at Master Shen Er with extremely worried eyes.
"Master Shen, why don't you go and ask for help?"
Sir, I am referring to Prime Minister Fang.
Master Shen shook his head and said, "Since it is His Majesty's choice, I will go there. Don't worry." He bowed to everyone and returned to the mansion.
Shen family,
When everyone heard that Master Shen Er was going to the battlefield, they immediately cried out in grief.
"How can we go to this battlefield? It is said that the Ryukyu people eat raw meat and drink blood, and are insidious and vicious. How can we come back alive after going there?" Mrs. Shen's eyes were red and swollen from crying.
Song Qianru said directly: "I'll go with you!"
Master Shen Er: “…don’t make trouble.”
Xihe pondered: "Father, do you know who put your name up?"
Master Shen shook his head, then calmly said a few words to comfort everyone, then stood up and went to the study. Xihe paused, then stood up and followed him.
In the Shen family study, Second Master Shen looked helplessly at his daughter sitting on the chair opposite.
He told her not to interfere, but she still didn't listen...
Master Shen Er had no choice but to confess: "It's Prince Yu."
Xihe nodded, she guessed it too.
Master Shen Er then said, "I have to go on this trip. The family depends on you. Please take good care of Qianru, your mother and your brother. Wait for me to come back."
His brows were furrowed, and there was worry in his eyes.
He expected that Prince Yu would not give up, but he did not expect that he would let him go to the East China Sea... The journey to the East China Sea would definitely be full of dangers. He could guarantee his own life, but he could not take care of the mansion at the same time.
Master Shen Er looked at his only daughter and entrusted her with a task: “Your brother is impulsive and reckless, and Qianru is a child at heart. This time, I have to rely on you.”
He was in the East China Sea and was completely out of reach.
Xihe nodded heavily: "Father, you must take care of yourself."
Within two days, Lord Shen had no choice but to set off for the East China Sea, accompanied by a dozen guards and His Majesty.
The Shen Mansion immediately closed its doors to visitors after Lord Shen left, but unexpectedly, an imperial decree came from the palace the next day, asking Concubine Ling to meet Madam Shen II.
When Mrs. Shen Er heard this, her face suddenly darkened.
"This is too much! Let's go to the palace now!" He was completely annoyed by the domineering behavior of Prince Yu's Mansion.
