The most reassuring thing for an emperor was a son and a woman without ambition. When Emperor Wen Hui was sick, he loved to summon Consort Dong Shu to serve him. Under such Imperial favour, Consort Dong Shu was as cautious as usual and would not take the initiative to talk to Emperor Wen Hui about Prince Ding's matter, which made Emperor Wen Hui even more satisfied. Occasionally he would talk with Consort Dong Shu about some unhappy matters in court.
"The tribute is about to begin." Emperor Wen Hui sighed, "The messenger said that Shen Xin will return to the capital in these few days. I banished him two years ago, and I'm afraid he still has resentment in his heart. If it weren't for the urgency of the situation, I wouldn't have invited a wolf into my house. "
"Your Majesty." Consort Dong Shu said with a smile, "General Shen is your official and naturally needs to do things for you. He will do whatever you want him to do, so why does Your Majesty torment yourself?"
"Minister?" Emperor Wen Hui sneered, "This official's prestige is bigger than Zhen's. How can Zhen believe that he wants to be an official. It was the same for Xie Ding in the past, but he lost his son. Now that the Xie Family is unable to withstand a single blow, We can't be bothered to exterminate them. The Shen Family, after the tribute, was still … I can't help feeling uneasy. "
Consort Dong Shu no longer spoke. At this time, if she were to speak, there would be the possibility of the Inner Palace interfering in politics. Therefore, he lowered his head and did not say a word, only fiddling with the enamel bowl.
In Consort Dong Shu's Shu Fang Palace, there was a person standing at the moment. That person was wearing a luxurious robe and had a cold elegance. It was Fu Xiu Yi. Compared to two years ago, he seemed more mature and steady, with an indescribable style.
"Shen Xin is resting outside the city today and will enter the capital tomorrow morning." The guard in front of him bowed and said in a low voice to him.
Fu Xiu Yi gripped the cup in his hand tightly and one did not know what he was thinking about. After a moment, he suddenly smiled, "Gentleman Pei's divine foresight is indeed correct. Tomorrow at the capital …" He said, "Pass down the order. All the guards at the city gates listen up. When Shen Xin returns to the capital, the entire city must welcome him."
The guard cupped his hands in acknowledgment and hurriedly retreated.
Fu Xiu Yi stood with his hands clasped behind his back and a trace of seriousness flashed across his face. Two years ago, the Shen family took drastic measures and messed up all his plans. Now returning to the Ding capital, Fu Xiu Yi had a feeling that this was a chess piece of the Shen family's plan. Perhaps Shen Xin had long known that there would be a day when he would return to the capital, so he was so decisive when he left.
Since it's like this, then how about roasting the Shen family on top of the scarlet flames once more? Let the Shen family be a target, and let Emperor Wen Hui, Prince Zhou's faction, Prince Li's faction, and even the Qin country and the Great Liang keep their eyes on Shen Xin, this fat piece of meat. He was a vengeful person after all, and he hated being toyed with by others even more.
Daring to scheme against him, Fu Xiu Yi, the Shen family must pay the price.
…
On the morning of the second day, Shen Xin's group set off once again. If one were to start their journey from this inn, they would be able to reach the Ding capital before noon. Since he still needed to find a house, it was best to do it as soon as possible.
When they reached the Ding capital's city gates, the guards at the city gates saw Shen Xin's waist token and were immediately in awe, "So it is General Shen." As they spoke, they quickly opened the city gates and welcomed Shen Xin and entourage in.
Luo Tan said, "Uncle, they seem to respect you very much. It seems that uncle's official position is very high."
Shen Qiu and Shen Miao frowned at the same time. That day when they left the Ding capital, those guards looked at their faces coldly and could not wait to hit them when they were down. Now with such enthusiasm, it was definitely not only because they needed him to come back to deter those people in the Qin country. Most likely it was because of someone's guidance.
Luo Tan lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked out before exclaiming, "This is the Ding capital. It is so big and lively, and there are more people than the Xiao Chun City. Ah, Biao Youngest Sister, the young ladies here are really good looking. How can they be so fresh and lively? Heavens, even the gentlemen are all fair and tender. "
