Emperor Shen's charming wife

"Your Majesty, this matter is of great importance. You must not hastily conclude based on just a few rumors." A minister frowned and said cautiously. "I have solid evidence. The identity of this royal orphan is beyond doubt." Shen Yu's face was solemn, and he spread the evidence in his hand one by one on the dragon case. "Your Majesty, this person is actually a royal orphan. There must be a powerful force hidden behind him." A minister said in a low voice with a worried look. "I already have a plan to deal with it. My dear ministers, I hereby announce today that I will personally take action and make sure to completely eliminate this royal orphan." Shen Yu's voice was firm and unwavering, which moved people. "I already know. I have dispatched a large number of troops to various parts of the capital to quell the riots." Shen Yu's voice was steady and majestic, and his eyes were so sharp that people dared not look directly at him. "Your Majesty, this person has a special identity, and there must be a huge force hidden behind him. If he is not eradicated as soon as possible, there will be endless troubles." A minister's face was anxious, and his voice was full of worry. "I have a plan. My dear ministers, I hereby announce today that I will personally take action to completely eradicate this royal orphan." Shen Yu's voice was full of determination, which moved people. After saying that, Shen Yu turned and left, his figure disappeared outside the palace gate, and continued to devote himself to the handling of military and national affairs. The orphan's tragic last words were like a heavy hammer, hitting Shen Yu's heart hard, and he instantly fell into endless contemplation. His eyes began to unconsciously sweep over everyone around him, even Ning Yao was not spared. He couldn't believe that among those who he had given all his trust, there might be a conspirator who wanted to overthrow his regime. This sudden sense of distrust, like a bottomless, invisible and shapeless chasm, spread rapidly between him and Ning Yao silently but unstoppably. Ning Yao keenly noticed the subtle changes in Shen Yu. She knew very well that the orphan's last words had left an indelible mark in Shen Yu's heart. So, she took the initiative to propose to Shen Yu that the two of them temporarily split up. First, she had to do her best to verify whether what the orphan said was true; second, she had to continue to stabilize the court and build an indestructible protective barrier for Shen Yu's regime. Shen Yu stared at Ning Yao quietly, his heart filled with conflicting emotions. He knew that Ning Yao had always been one of the people he trusted the most. However, the orphan's last words were like a curse, forcing him to doubt her. He closed his lips tightly, did not say a word, but nodded slightly. Because he hoped that time would eventually give all the answers. During the separation, Ning Xue tried to use the rift between Shen Yu and Ning Yao to achieve her own goals. She mentioned Ning Yao repeatedly in front of Shen Yu with ill intentions, and vividly described Ning Yao's various suspicious behaviors outside. Shen Yu's trust in Ning Yao had not completely disappeared, and he was skeptical of Ning Xue's provocative words. After all, he knew that Ning Yao had always been loyal. However, the orphan's tragic last words were like a sharp thorn that pierced deeply into his heart, causing him to doubt Ning Yao involuntarily.
