It just so happened that Shen Huaixu also wanted to ask the encyclopedia what kind of stone this was, so he did not refuse.
"Just consider it as you are staying here with me."
The two sisters talked for a while, and then Shen Huaixu asked Shuangjiang to escort Jiang Wei home.
She is the kind of person who always wants to plan ahead. Shangguan Yi and the Zhenyuan Marquis' Mansion have not yet been completely convicted. A lean camel is bigger than a horse. Who knows what tricks the Zhenyuan Marquis will come up with when he gets anxious.
But she felt that it would be soon. There were many people in the court who wanted to bring down the Marquis of Zhenyuan, and some who wanted to beat the man when he was down. In the past few days, impeachment memorials were flying everywhere, and almost all the bad things that the Marquis of Zhenyuan had done were impeached. The old emperor must be reaching his limit of patience.
When taking out the encyclopedia from the space, Shen Huaixu looked to see if Fu Yin was in it.
Ever since their last unpleasant meeting, Shen Huaixu had never had a proper conversation with Fu Yin again. It wasn't that she didn't want to find a chance to have a proper talk with Fu Yin, but she simply couldn't meet him.
Even if Fu Yin entered the space, she would not make any sound. She could not stay in the space for twelve hours a day. It dragged on for several days.
Once again, Fu Yin was not found. Shen Huaixu took the encyclopedia and his consciousness returned to his body.
Opening the encyclopedia, she listed the characteristic keywords of the stone, and soon a large number of results appeared on the blank pages.
Perhaps there are too many stones of the same type, taking up several pages of the encyclopedia.
She looked through them one by one, flipping through several pages before she found a stone that was similar in height to the Bodhi bag. "...a mineral formed over tens of thousands of years under extremely dry conditions, with mild radioactive contamination..."
She frowned slightly, wondering what standards the encyclopedia used to grade the degree of radiation contamination, and whether it would cause harm to the human body. The safest thing to do was to destroy the stone, but she also wanted to see how serious the mild radiation contamination was.
Picking up the Bodhi bag placed aside, Shen Huaixu walked under the sun, letting the warm light penetrate the stone. Looking again, the white inside became purer, and the bright light became more obvious and dazzling. If it was exposed to the sun for a long time, you could smell a strange fragrance, as fresh and elegant as bergamot mixed with a hint of orange.
Chen Huaixu knew that some beautiful-looking stones would produce radiation and cause diseases in the human body. She had seen stones like that before, but she had never seen one that could emit fragrance like the one in front of her.
I don’t know if it’s something unique to this world.
After putting the Bodhi bag into a small box, Chen Huaixu called Yinghua and asked her to bury the box under the crabapple tree in the southwest corner of the yard. There were few people there, so it should not cause any harm to the people in the yard.
Two days later, there was news that Qi Zhan and others would return to the border on April 8th.
When Shen Huaixu heard the news from his father, he was stunned for a long time before asking, "Dad, do you think there will be another war at the border?"
"The Northern Qiang King had several sons, and they didn't get along well before. But after the Northern Qiang King's death, they completely lost their guard and started fighting amongst themselves. They haven't caused any trouble lately."
Shen Su picked up some food and placed it on the bowl in front of Shen Huaixu. "Dad thought Qi Zhan would continue to guard the northern border, but Fu Yin would not."
"What does Daddy mean?"
"Your Majesty seems to want to use him."
Rolling his eyes, Shen Huaixu guessed, "Nanxia?"
Chen Su nodded gently. "True. Fu Yin was bold and strategic, but he was too aggressive and too bold. If the Northern Qiang King hadn't been so overconfident about the 100,000 troops he had sent, he wouldn't have panicked and rushed to the royal tent to seek reinforcements after the news of the defeat reached the royal tent. If he hadn't encountered the Northern Qiang King, would he have barged into the royal tent? He was completely reckless and had no regard for the lives of his men. Fortunately, he worked under Qi Zhan. If it were someone else, it wouldn't be surprising if he killed him for the sake of his own success."
These words hit the nail on the head. Shen Huaixu wanted to speak up for Fuyin, but there was nothing she could do. She and Fuyin knew that some things seemed unusual to outsiders, so she could only nod vaguely and say flatteringly, "Father is right! Is Your Majesty using him to temper his temper?"
"That's what I mean. Since he's from Huai'an Prefecture, he knows more about Nanxia."
Chen Huaixu thought, who knows what would happen if he ran into Qiao Man.
Thinking of this, when she looked up, she saw her father pinching his eyebrows, and there seemed to be fatigue between his brows.
Chen Huaixu felt a little distressed. His father had been very busy these days. Sometimes he would bury himself in the study and even forget to eat dinner.
"Is Daddy tired?" She asked with concern, remembering that Daddy seemed to have not had a good rest for a long time, and she couldn't help complaining, "Why does His Majesty always ask you for everything? You haven't had a good rest in a long time."
Upon hearing this, Shen Su smiled and said, "It's just that those who are capable should do more work. Your Majesty values me so much that he entrusted these matters to me."
"Have you forgotten your age? If not, I'll give you some nourishing food. How about we go hunting when Daddy's next day off? I'll hunt and you can eat it. My roasted meat is delicious."
Chen Su sighed softly, with a smile in his eyes, "Not bad, you know how to feel sorry for daddy."
After dinner, Shen Huaixu left a note for Fu Yin as soon as he returned to the yard.
You have such a big body, but you are always in a bad mood. You deserve to be punished.
What Chen Huaixu didn't know was that Fu Yin had already expressed his feelings to Princess Chaohua, and said that he had someone in his heart, but Chaohua didn't believe him and insisted that he tell her who that person was.
In desperation, he had to go out early and return late to search for the masked man's lair. He had just been promoted to the fifth rank and it was impossible for him to continue to rise in the short term. If he made meritorious deeds again during this period, he might be able to get a promise from the old emperor.
