Good Man Operation Guide

Chapter 49 The Princess’s Beauty Agent (6) (1/2)

While Lin Shiheng here was instilling chicken soup for the soul to his friends, the elected officials in the hall over there were also diligently correcting the questions that the candidates had just made. His Majesty the Emperor in dragon robes was sitting on the dragon chair, slightly He frowned and sat down slightly tired.

This time, there was a huge quarrel between the court and the court because of the affairs of the three dynasties. It is impossible to say that the emperor was not annoyed, otherwise he would not regard the handling of this incident as a test question, but just now he casually looked through a few pictures. But they all just stood on one side and spoke for that side, expounding the benefits of choosing to preserve the city they were on.

Who wants to see these useless things.

If he wants to sacrifice one side to save the other, why bother dragging him out at the risk of the embankment bursting at any time?

Now that the princes are gradually growing up, the emperor has been doing a good job of maintaining balance. However, after this Yanjiang water incident, those princes who were still willing to act like brothers and sisters no longer seem to bother to pretend. But face to face hard anal.

Although the position of emperor is respected by thousands of people and has a harem of three thousand, as he gets older and declines a little bit, the children he loved at the beginning become stronger and healthier. Every time he sees his sons deal with each other. The emperor felt relieved, disappointed and wary at the same time.

He is pleased that his children know how to fight, and is disappointed that he who was as healthy as them back then has grown old. He is wary of what he will do if the princes turn this fight for their brothers onto his old father.

In the rest room, Lin Shiheng coughed softly and went out to open the door and window for a while. After seeing that no one was outside, he sat back on the chair.

Zhao He was immersed in the nervousness of "his paper is probably being marked". Seeing that his usually quiet friend rarely opened the door and window to check, he suddenly felt a little relieved.

"Brother Lin, don't worry. With your knowledge and membership, you will surely be among the best."

The young scholar smiled sheepishly, "Of course I know I can win."

Zhao Hegan, who was still thinking of comforting him with a few more words like "Don't be nervous, you can do it," was stunned. He looked at the fascinated and confident friend in front of him, not knowing what to say.

Although he felt that Yi Lin Shiheng's knowledge would definitely win, but what he said was one thing and what he said was another thing. What's more, wasn't Brother Lin always very humble?

He didn't know whether he was too nervous and didn't want to wait any longer, or he was too curious, but Zhao He couldn't help but ask his question.

Lin Shiheng did not hide it from him, but said directly, "Your Majesty probably doesn't want to choose between the three cities."

Zhao He was stunned for a moment. Seeing the calm expression on his friend's face, he quickly got up and ran to open the door and window and look outside cautiously.

It's okay for them to discuss outside the palace. This is the palace and His Majesty's territory. What if they are heard talking about His Majesty behind his back? What if they are punished!

"Brother Zhao, there is no need to look. I have just looked. There is no one around the house. The two brothers who share the same room with us also went to an acquaintance to discuss whether they will be back soon."

Unlike Zhao He, who was full of tension, Lin Shiheng remained calm. He picked up the teapot on the table with his slender fingers and poured water into the two cups. The process was smooth and smooth without any stagnation.

Although he said this, Zhao He was still hairy and ran back, "You'd better stop talking. After all, you are in the palace. If anyone hears this, you must be punished."

"When I say these words, naturally no outsiders will hear them."

Lin Shiheng smiled, gently held up the teacup with his jade-white fingers, and handed it to Zhao He on the opposite side. "If His Majesty wanted to make a choice, he would have ordered the diversion of the water or ordered the entire city of Yancheng North City to be relocated and evacuated."

"The reason for this delay is that neither side wants to sacrifice."

Zhao He was no longer as anxious as before, but sat down and nodded thoughtfully, "Brother Lin is saying that the longer this matter is delayed, the worse it will be."

"So, His Majesty doesn't want the people of the three cities to be in trouble, so he is now uncertain about whether to choose?"

A look of admiration suddenly appeared on Zhao He's face, "Your Majesty is indeed kind."

Looking at the admiration and admiration on his face, Lin Shiheng did not tell his friend who had been indoctrinated by his elders since childhood to be loyal to the emperor and patriotic.

There is kindness, but how much is not clear.

Among the three cities, the second city houses the family of the eldest prince and the second prince’s mother. Although the relocation of the whole city will not damage human life, people are selfish. If the people of Nancheng are safe and sound, maybe they can still accept it, but now Nancheng is hit by a plague, even if it is a flood. If they didn't come, they wouldn't be able to get through it. How could they not feel resentful if they were forced to leave their homes and let the floods erode their homes for the sake of the people in this city who would die sooner or later.

If they really do this, the eldest prince and the second prince will definitely have resentment in their hearts, and the closeness between father and son will no longer exist.

And if the water is diverted to Nancheng, first of all, it is unkind. After all, the elderly, weak, sick and disabled in Nancheng are already miserable. If the water is diverted, the people of the city will die. If this is really done, the people will be embarrassed. If you dare to say anything, you must feel that the king is cruel behind your back.

In particular, the fifth prince's biological mother's family is also in Nancheng. If Nancheng is really destroyed, the other princes may still be able to compete, but the fifth prince will be completely wiped out from the list of successors.

It's not because he lost his mother's family, but because in this case, the emperor is regarded as the enemy who killed his mother's family. Although they are father and son, every emperor is not stingy in judging the people around him with the greatest malice.

Under such circumstances, it is no wonder that the emperor was in trouble.

Zhao He didn't know what Lin Shiheng was thinking. After sighing that our emperor was indeed kind, he continued, "So if your recipe, Brother Lin, really works, then it will solve your Majesty's troubles, and the results will be good."

As he spoke, he seemed to have some enlightenment, "No wonder Brother Lin is so confident. His Majesty is kind. As long as there is a hint of a method that can solve the problem for the people in the three cities, he will definitely use it."

Although he perfectly understood the process wrong, fortunately the result was still correct. Lin Shiheng said nothing and smiled gently at him, just taking it as acquiescence.

Even if Fang Zi is not used, Fang Zi has previously proposed a slower and risky way to balance the three cities. Although it is a bit risky, under the current situation, there must be very few students who are willing to propose saving the three cities at the same time. Few, plus everything he said was true and verifiable, so the result was not much different.

Sure enough, after the previous corrections were completed, they knelt down. According to the practice of this dynasty, the emperor would read the good answers selected by the courtiers and then draw up the top three.

The first person he asked was Lin Shiheng.

"Is the recipe you attached real?"

A young student with a slightly thin body and a slightly pale face stood up. He saluted His Majesty above with no trace of nervousness on his face, and then said, "This recipe was consulted by ordinary people in ancient books. Since I have not tried it, I don't know if it is true." "

"Um……"

The emperor obviously had a good impression of this young man with good looks and a clear and warm voice.

After all, the higher you are in a high position, the more important your appearance is.

"Although you don't know whether this prescription is true or not, you answered the question well, and you are so talented and agile, and you have the talent of being the number one scholar. I will choose you as..."

At this point, the emperor suddenly paused.

He remembered that he was planning to select a good one with no background among the students taking the imperial examination this time to be his eldest daughter's consort.

Just now when the ministers were discussing who to choose as the number one scholar, he knew that the young man named Lin Shiheng and Lin Qinzhi were just an ordinary farmer, just as he thought.

"I wonder if Lin Qing... is married?"

Lin Shiheng looked calm and said, "Your Majesty, I am not married yet."

So, of course, he was appointed as the bride's groom and the eldest princess in marriage.

This is also an unknown rule of this dynasty. If you want to grant a marriage to a self-taught student, the number one scholar or the second best scholar will generally not be successful. After all, there are many children of officials in the dynasty who will take the exam. If there is no problem with their talent and learning, the emperor will not mind giving him the nod. As the number one scholar, there will usually be at least one child from a poor family among the top three to show that the court treats everyone equally.

The consort sounds majestic, but before the previous dynasty changed the rule that "consorts cannot enter the court as officials", after all, after marrying the princess, others would not talk about the xx official, but the xx princess's consort. In addition, the princess and ordinary people Women are different. They often have the support of the most powerful man in the world - the emperor. If by chance they meet a jealous prince-in-law who raises a woman outside, and turns around to sue the princess into the palace, and the emperor also happens to love the princess, it will inevitably happen. The prince-in-law must be punished for disrespecting the princess.

When the late emperor was still alive, he once separated the two of them in anger because his beloved Princess Yuhe was neglected by the consort after they got married, and even brought the outer concubine into the palace. He reprimanded the consort for disrespecting the princess and was exiled thousands of miles away and never returned to the capital. Although The Prince Consort's family was not implicated, but that family gradually disappeared into the homes of powerful people because they could not get the Emperor's Sacred Heart.

Princess Yuhe was safe and sound. After the consort was exiled, the late emperor carefully selected a consort for her who was born in a poor family. After all, those born in a poor family did not have the temper of those powerful children, and they had no background to rely on. They could only rely on the princess. Naturally, they had to treat the princess. Well, since then, Yu and the princess have lived a very smooth life.

For the royal family, this incident is a defense battle of "I gave birth to a daughter who is the eldest and no one can bully my daughter." But for those powerful people, it is a signal that "whoever marries the princess will be unlucky." After all, no matter what the family, No matter how outstanding the children are, once they marry a princess, they will not be able to enter the court and serve as officials. Not only will they not be able to have fun like visiting flower houses and raising women, so once there is a princess of the same age in the palace, these powerful children will make an appointment early. Marriage contract, lest you accidentally be chosen as the consort, you will be miserable and can't do this or that, and you will be exiled thousands of miles away accidentally.

The emperor was not stupid. When he saw the powerful people evading his daughter, he became angry. When choosing his consort, he specially selected the children from poor families who were in line with his wishes. After they became the consorts, he lifted the rule that "consorts are not allowed to be officials." , showing great favor to express "you will regret it if you don't become the consort".

When the prince-in-law no longer had only disadvantages but no benefits, some powerful people began to think about not escaping. Unfortunately, the late emperor and the emperor of this dynasty both held grudges. They still remembered that their daughters and sisters were disliked. The more they wanted to honor the princess, the emperor They just refused to agree. Of course, if the princess herself said which family she wanted to have children from, usually the emperor would agree as long as it would not affect the court situation.

The emperor of this dynasty has not yet married a princess, but the eldest princess who is the first to recruit a consort is not protected by her biological mother and is not very favored. The only younger brother seems to be mediocre and has no hope of winning the heir apparent. With the mother and concubine in the harem, she has already passed through her natal family. The difference between the princesses who are planning to choose a prince-in-law is that the eldest princess's biological mother died young, so naturally there will be no powerful people who want to marry.

Therefore, it is a good thing for everyone when the emperor chooses a consort from a poor family.

Except for golden branches and jade leaves, she can only marry a princess from a poor family.

After all, the situation of the eldest princess is different from that of Princess Yuhe in the previous dynasty. Princess Yuhe was chosen as a consort from a poor family because she was favored by her father and feared that she would be bullied. After Princess Yuhe married, he even rewarded the consort so lavishly that others did not dare to underestimate.

As for the eldest princess, anyone with better information would know that she is no longer favored.

He is not favored, has no biological mother, has a mediocre younger brother, and is married to a poor student.

Everyone who heard the news felt some sympathy for the eldest princess.

It's miserable.

But it’s not from their side anyway, just watch the fun.

When he decided to recruit Tanhua Lang as his consort, Shen Huyang was looking out the window at the palace people walking back and forth.

"Now my father should have chosen his consort."

The maid waiting on the side also knew that the princess's husband would be selected from this group of students, and replied, "Your Majesty will definitely choose a good husband for the princess."

But Shen Huyang, who had already investigated and came to Beijing to take the examination for the candidates of the right age, had no reaction.

She suddenly remembered the young scholar she saw in the Zhuangyuan Building that day. He should also be a scholar. Although his talent could not be seen through his appearance, every move he made was clearly done by someone with confidence.

Like grandpa, he can remain calm no matter what happens.

But among the people her brother found for her, that person was not there.

Even if the father planned to choose a consort from a poor family for her, he would never choose one with a poor ranking. The top pick was usually reserved for the sons of officials, and the second place and the third most handsome prince were possible. The late emperor preferred the third most handsome prince when he ordered a prince consort. After all, everyone By default, Tanhua is the prettiest one, so her consort this time should be Tanhua.

I just don’t know if I can get along well with her, and I don’t think highly of this unpopular princess like myself.

Shen Huyang knocked on the table. At this moment, she should rationally analyze what she should do if the prince-in-law was a difficult person to get along with, but in her mind, she always thought of the young student sitting quietly in the Zhuangyuan Building that day, drinking tea with his lips pursed. .

He must not be in good health, because his friends mentioned that he has been ill for a long time and has never participated in the exchanges between scholars.

His good friend is called Zhao He, and Shen Huyang has some impressions. Zhao He has good grades and should pass the exam, but he is the son of a merchant and his father will not choose him.

She didn't check the young scholar who was good friends with Zhao He. Since she already knew the result, what's the use of checking, if she didn't even know the name.

But even though he was thinking this, Shen Huyang still couldn't help but have the scene of that day pop up in his mind.

He is very quiet and tolerant. Even if he sees his friends playing pranks, he just smiles helplessly. I just don’t know how such a pure and kind young man can be friends with a person like Zhao He who has an out-of-the-box personality at first glance and is full of evil ideas. .

Listening to their conversation that day, he was from Ming County. Princess Huyang, who was sitting in front of the window, looked a little sad again.

There were no students from Ming County in the list and picture album brought by my younger brother.

In other words, that person must have failed the exam.

"Close the window, the second and third princesses will be here in less than a moment."

Shen Huyang stood up and stopped looking at the scenery outside the window.

She has no mother, and although she is the eldest sister, she is always the one who is ignored among the younger sisters. The life in the palace is boring, and the concubines fight back and forth, which also attracts the princesses to imitate. They have fun fighting every day, although Shen Huyang never got involved, but the princess married a child from a poor family and was not favored by her father like the previous dynasty. They must come to "congratulate" her.

Seeing the palace maid closing the window, Shen Huyang lowered his eyelashes indifferently, picked up a book and started reading, completely dissipating the scene of that day in his mind.

That’s all.

In the end, it is fate.

"Throughout the ages, there have been three great joyous events: meeting an old friend in a foreign country, the night of being named on the gold medal list, and the wedding night..."

Zhao He was chosen as the second place, and he was sitting happily on his horse. While people on the surrounding streets were watching the excitement, he excitedly said to his smiling friend beside him, "Although you and I are from different counties, we are also the same." Even though we are neighbors, today|you have been granted a marriage by His Majesty, and you have also been admitted to the top three universities. Do you think you have all these three great things in your pocket? "

Lin Shiheng's smile deepened, "If you follow Brother Zhao's words, that's right."

His smile, handsome and elegant, coupled with the clothes he wore to represent Tanhualang, made the women watching around him excited, and they threw flower handkerchiefs down one after another.

Some people even wove flowers into large baskets and threw them directly from the second-floor window towards the handsome Tan Hua Lang.

Lin Shiheng looked forward, but neatly raised the reins and hid. Zhao He beside him was completely unprepared and was directly hit by the flower basket.

"Hey!"

The flower basket didn't hit his face, but it hit Zhao He on the back, who was excitedly waving around. It was enough to hurt him. It hurt. Zhao He looked at the flower basket on the ground with an even more excited expression, and proudly pointed at Lin Shiheng beside him. Show off: "Brother Lin, look, I'm more popular than you all."

Lin Shiheng smiled and remained silent.

The number one scholar on the side is about to turn thirty, and has a relatively calm temperament. Although he is a son of an official, his gaze towards the two of them is also very gentle. It can be seen that the family has a good upbringing.

Some students from poor families always think that these second-generation officials look down on them because of their status, but if there are really those students who insist on getting into the court on their own despite taking shortcuts, their knowledge is generally not much different. .

Families such as the Aristocratic Family attach great importance to the education of their children and will never allow their children to become the kind of people who rely on the family to bully others. Therefore, except for a small number of spoiled parents who are not smart, most of them will The children of officials in the DPRK are relatively gentle and polite.

Even if you look down on the humble family in your heart, you will never show it on your face or take it personally. At most, you will stay away from them and have no contact with them.

The number one scholar obviously didn't have any aversion to poor families. The three of them had a conversation just now when they got on the horse together. They learned that his father was the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs and that he had already passed the imperial examination at the age of twenty-five. Unfortunately, his grandfather He must observe filial piety after his death, and when the filial piety is completed, he has to wait for the three-year examination, which has been delayed until now.

The three of them discussed where they would find employment in the future. As they walked, they greeted the people who threw flowers from all directions and ran out to watch the excitement.

Even though it will be held once every three years, the people in the capital still can't get enough of watching it every time and usually spend the first three weeks to watch the excitement.

This year's top picks were more unexpected than they expected. They were all younger students than in previous years. This also made some people watching the excitement even more excited. After all, ordinary people don't care what outstanding qualities you have under your old skin. , most of them are illiterate and only look at people by their appearance. When they met the three people this year, they all sighed.

Although the No. 1 pick is older, he has good looks and looks stable. However, I heard that he has already married. The No. 2 pick has a bright smile. He is obviously more lively and his appearance also has a bit of a youth. He is commonly known as a baby face, and he is so excited about the surroundings. Waving was not very popular with the women who came to watch the fun.

Only the third flower greatly exceeded the expectations of the onlookers.

Although we all know that Tanhua is usually the one with good looks, this year's Tanhua looks a bit too good-looking. Myopia was much less common in ancient times. Many people can clearly see Tanhua sitting on a horse standing on the second floor. Lang looks good.

A pair of eyes that are slightly long and narrow but not overtly enchanting. The ends of the eyes are slightly raised, and the corners of the lips on the white face are slightly raised, revealing an elegant smile. Although the face is pale, the body has a clear temperament and a gentle look when looking at people. , which made some young women hiding on the second floor watching the excitement blush and smash the flowers in their hands towards Tan Hwa Man.

Unfortunately, I don't know if it was because of lack of accuracy. Tanhua's body was not stained with much flower juice, but Zhao He beside him was hit. Lin Shiheng turned slightly sideways, and he was hit with flowers on his head. Lin Shiheng paused slightly, and he was hit. Smashing a flower, although the petals are scattered lightly and it is quite artistic, but a whole flower is still a bit powerful, let alone so many flowers falling on the body at the same time.

Zhao Xinghe immediately withered. He didn't think that he was protecting his friend from disaster. He just thought that he was too enthusiastic to attract so many flowers. The next section of the road could be called a quiet one. The chicken just wilted all the way forward.

Ahead, the emperor, who had a rare feeling of father-daughter love, stood in front of the second floor window, calling his daughter in men's clothes to come over and take a look, "Huyang, come and see, the good-looking boy on the left is the prince-consort I have chosen for you. "

Shen Huyang was not interested.

But in front of her father, she still stood up, showing some curiosity and shyness in her eyes at the right time. Under the emperor's loving smile, all she could think about was "Why is my father so abnormal today? He has been so ordinary for more than ten years." "Why is it suddenly so good today?" Dan Dan went to the window to take a look.

Glancing over, I happened to meet the gentle gaze of someone who was riding a majestic horse and looking up.

As if he recognized her, he raised the corners of his lips slightly and gave her a faint smile.

It was just a glimpse, but it seemed like we had seen each other in a dream.

Shen Huyang was stunned. He didn't come back to his senses for a long time until the people below gradually left.

"How is it? I have chosen a good prince-in-law for you. He is talented and good-looking. This time, he wrote a good story about Yanjiangshui. Huyang has always loved reading. Otherwise, I would not have chosen him."

The emperor completely ignored that he was worried that the competition between his four sons would be broken, so the sister of his fifth son chose such a marriage that would not bring any family support to his fifth son. Seeing his daughter looking down blankly as if she was satisfied, she smiled. Suddenly he became more kind.

After Shen Huyang recovered from the gaze from her future consort, she saw her father's kind smile that made her back tremble.

She wrote sweetly on her face, looking at the old emperor with admiration in her eyes, but feeling extremely strange in her heart.

She has not received much love from her father since she was a child. Even when choosing the consort, she was notified that she would choose a scholar. Although the choice of the consort this time...

Shen Huyang blushed. Although she was not disgusted with the future prince-in-law, her father's change of attitude was too strange.

Life in the palace for more than ten years has made her extremely vigilant towards any abnormal person or behavior, but the one who is abnormal is the emperor, the biggest person in the world, so she can only deal with it without relaxing at all, for fear of making mistakes if something goes wrong. younger brother.

Soon, Shen Huyang knew the reason why the emperor was so abnormal.

He actually sent the fifth prince to Nancheng to try the plague prescription, and ordered that if the prescription worked, he would lead the people of Nancheng to relocate.

After hearing the news, Shen Huyang's eyes darkened and he almost fainted.

Who doesn’t know how dangerous the plague is?

Even if Fang Zi is correct, the fifth prince has grown up in the capital. No matter how he is not favored in the palace, he is still a prince. Except for the concubines and the princes and princesses, the people who serve him do not dare to neglect him. After all, he is a prince. Unlike the late emperor, who had many heirs in the harem, there were only five princes at all times. Although the emperor favored the eldest prince and treated the other princes mediocrely, the other three princes were cared for by their mothers and concubines, leaving only the fifth prince who followed his sister without a mother. He thrived in a stumble, but he was still of the Tian family's blood, so forget it about the princes and princesses. How dare they, those who serve others, neglect them.

Shen Huan had suffered a lot when he didn't know how to hide his clumsiness. Later, after being reminded by his sister, he started to hide his clumsiness and became ordinary. He was raised with dignity. Although he loved martial arts, he always had guards around him and never interacted with outsiders. After fighting, he was suddenly asked to go to the plague-ridden Nancheng, which had never been to the Sixth Division?

Shen Huyang almost laughed out loud.

She said why her father suddenly treated her so well. She felt that she was wrong after making this decision, so she felt tender towards her sister, a compatriot in Hu'an.

After the accident in Nancheng, the imperial court immediately sent people to seal the city, and then hesitated over the choice of the northern city of Yancheng. If the imperial court sent people to take people away from their homeland at this time, the people might not be willing, but if they were sent to represent the majesty of the Tian family, The effect of the prince is better than that of the officials.

What's more, there is a fifth prince in Nancheng's maternal family, and he is the maternal grandson. How could there be any reason not to help him?

And this recipe for treating the plague was written down by Princess Huyang’s future consort, so it was “natural” that Princess Huyang’s brother went to try it out.

Shen Huyang stood in front of the window, his hands shaking slightly, copying Buddhist scriptures on the rice paper spread in front of him.

The empresses in the middle palace love to copy Buddhist scriptures, so they, the royal daughters, should also love them.

From the beginning to the end, my mood has never been so unstable.

Because this time a prince had to be comforted, so the father...just pushed the youngest brother out.

It doesn't matter that he is not yet sixteen, and it doesn't matter that he has never been out of the capital and commanded an army.

Of the five princes, the youngest and least experienced one was chosen.

She looked at the writing in front of her that was gradually showing its edge, and slowly closed her eyes, "Cai Qing."

The maid waiting outside came in, bowed and saluted, "Princess."

"Go take this paper and burn it."

Cai Qing had been serving Shen Huyang since childhood and had a very good relationship with her. He stepped forward and picked up the piece of paper, a little confused, "The princess wrote so well, why did she burn it?"

Shen Huyang glanced at the sharp handwriting on it, with a bitter look in his eyes, "It's too sharp, let's burn it."

She is a princess and her father is the emperor, the greatest man in the world.

Therefore, no matter what he did, whether he almost pushed her brother to death without caring, she could not show a trace of dissatisfaction.

Even though they are father and daughter, they are more nervous than anyone else when they get along.

Cai Qing didn't ask any more questions, and obediently threw the paper into the brazier. Shen Huyang stood in front of the window, turning slightly sideways, watching the writing on it gradually being burned and turned into ashes.

Father even said today that he had chosen a good husband for her, but had he ever thought that the prescription for curing the plague would come from her future husband? If the prescription was ineffective and something happened to Shen Huan in Nancheng, she, as Hu'an, would Sister An, how can you have no grudges in your heart?

Maybe my father had thought about it, but he just thought it didn't matter. He could always be so ruthless anyway.

She suddenly remembered that during the day, Tanhua Lang was sitting on his horse, looking up at her among the gorgeous petals that had been thrown down.

His eyebrows are picturesque and his smile is gentle.

One look at him, and you can tell that he is a clear-tempered person with a good reputation. If he knew about the turmoil between the royal family, he doesn't know what his expression would be.

She was the one who got him into trouble.

It's okay that Hu'an is safe. If something happens to him, he will only be trembling with fear if he marries a princess who no longer has any protection.

Shen Huyang closed his eyes again, hiding the tears in his eyes, gritted his teeth and stood up, "Go and get my body, give it to the fifth prince, and ask him to be careful along the way."

It is not necessary for the prince to go to appease the victims. His father is soft-hearted, and he may have listened to others' instigation. Unfortunately, the imperial edict has been issued and cannot be changed, and because of the emergency, only one day of preparation time was given.

No matter how unloved Shen Huyang was, she was still a princess. It was easy to find out who made her father give such an order.

It would be fine if Hu An returned safely, but if something went wrong in Hu An...

Shen Huyang walked to the brazier expressionlessly and looked at the burned ashes inside.

No matter what the cost, she will let that person get the retribution he deserves.

Shen Huan set off early the next morning.

After receiving the imperial edict early yesterday morning, he was immediately sent to order troops and horses in Beishan. The road to Beishan was far away, so he stayed up all night with his troops and horses. He had to return to the capital to pay homage to his father in the early morning before leaving the capital.

After all, he was going to appease the victims, so the emperor couldn't give him too many troops, so he only ordered 1,500. Plus his 200 guards and some imperial doctors, the number was less than 1,800.

When the prince travels, this formation can be considered pitiable in this dynasty.

This journey had to be done day and night, and when we arrived at the place, we had to ask the imperial doctor to start saving people immediately. Shen Huan's trip was equivalent to representing the emperor, so of course it was impossible to hide outside the city without going in.

In other words, if you take these few troops to the most dangerous place, you will most likely not come back alive. A discerning person will know at a glance that the emperor does not seem to have any feelings for this youngest son. If other princes are sent For such an errand, the mother's family would definitely have to protect their grandson like a chicken. But if it was the fifth prince who had no mother's protection, as soon as the emperor announced the matter, it was immediately settled silently. be opposed to.

Everyone knew that Shen Huan must have been disappointed this time. When the majestic prince left the capital, there was no one to see him off.

Shen Huan was riding on the horse, with a heavy look on his slightly immature face. He looked back at the tower after leaving the city, and tightened his grip on the reins.

I also knew that if something happened to him, my sister would definitely be bullied even more.

Even if it was for his sister, he would return safely this time.

So what if there's no one to send him to? Wait for him...

"Your Highness."

The guard on the side reminded, "There is someone ahead."

Um?

Shen Hu'an, who was immersed in "The whole world looks down on me, but it doesn't matter, I will definitely come back alive and let you people know today | If you ignore me tomorrow, I will make it impossible for you to climb up" was a little confused.

He raised his head, and sure enough he saw a young scholar wearing a white cloak standing quietly under the cold wind, looking over.

It looks familiar.

Can't remember where I saw it.

The scholar saluted him and said in a gentle voice, "I have seen His Highness the Fifth Highness. I would like to ask Your Highness to dismount and speak to you."

Subordinate?

Shen Hu'an was a little confused about the situation. This man looked like a weak civil servant at first glance. Everyone knew that he had never been close to civil servants. Why would such a strange civil servant come to him at this time?

Could it be that he was a civil servant who was close to grandpa?

Although he didn't quite understand the situation, he was polite and he couldn't refuse. Shen Huan dismounted and said to the people behind him, "You guys wait here."

When he came closer, before he spoke, he saw the handsome civil servant in front of him took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to him. He said in a gentle voice slowly, "This letter contains some anti-epidemic methods. Your Highness can follow the instructions above for people who are not infected with the plague, and there is a 80% chance that they will not be infected."

"

Shen Hu'an answered confusedly, "You..."

The young civil servant in front of him raised his hands and saluted, "I wish your highness a safe journey and a speedy return."

After saying that, he raised his head, a faint smile appeared on Ruyu's face, he cupped his hands again, turned and walked towards the tower.

Behind him, Shen Huan held two letters and stared blankly at the retreating figure.

The appearance is quite good-looking, and the back has a calm and gentle look, which is very convincing.
