Emperor Shen's charming wife

Chapter 154: Blindly Moving Forward, Unknown Mist

In the solemn court, the envoy from a foreign land was demonstrating his amazing divination skills. He was seen muttering to himself, and the magic weapon in his hand flashed with strange light. After some operation, he solemnly predicted that the empire would encounter an unprecedented and huge disaster in the future. Only by finding the legendary "treasure of destiny" can this disaster be resolved. Shen Yu sat on the dragon throne, frowning, half believing and half doubting. As an emperor, he knew that he was responsible for the rise and fall of the entire empire, and he did not dare to take risks and gamble with the future of the empire. After careful consideration, he decisively decided to send an elite team to secretly embark on the difficult journey of finding the "treasure of destiny". At the same time, he was meticulous and asked Eunuch Li to secretly investigate the true background of the envoy. After all, this divination was too mysterious. If he had not seen the incredible scene with his own eyes, he would certainly not believe it easily. However, if this is a trap carefully designed by someone with ulterior motives, he must not take it lightly and must respond cautiously to prevent the empire from falling into an abyss of no return. Ning Yao firmly believed that instead of blindly believing in the illusory prophecy, it would be better to devote energy to the development of the country. So, she vigorously began to promote a series of significant reforms. In education, she recruited talents and established new schools to give more children of ordinary people the opportunity to read and learn; in the field of agriculture, she actively introduced advanced farming techniques, built water conservancy projects, encouraged farming and sericulture, and strived to enhance national strength and be fully prepared for the possible crisis. On the other hand, the elite team sent out to find the "treasure of destiny" experienced countless hardships and obstacles in this long journey. They crossed the uninhabited desert, climbed over the towering mountains, and crossed the turbulent rivers, but they never found the so-called "treasure of destiny". Meanwhile, in the palace, after a thorough investigation, Eunuch Li discovered that there seemed to be a hidden secret behind this foreign envoy. His seemingly mysterious prophecy might just be a lie carefully fabricated to achieve some ulterior purpose. After careful consideration and weighing the pros and cons, Shen Yu resolutely decided to end the treasure hunt that was costly and clueless. He knew that investing too much energy and resources in this illusory search might not only be futile, but also weaken the country's strength. Therefore, he decisively shifted his focus to strengthening the construction of national defense and intelligence networks to prevent any possible crisis. At this critical moment, a mysterious fortuneteller with strange clothes quietly appeared in the palace. His deep eyes seemed to be able to see through everything in the world, and his every move exuded an elusive mysterious aura. The information he brought was like a thunderbolt, which seemed to completely overturn the once undoubted prophecy of the foreign envoy. He pointed out with a firm tone that the real "treasure of destiny" is not in the unreachable distance, but hidden deep in everyone's heart. The people's support, the unity and loyalty of the people are the key to determining the fate of the empire. Faced with two very different prophecies, Shen Yu and Ning Yao both fell into deep thought. In the solemn and quiet study in the palace, Shen Yu stroked his chin with his hand, frowned, and his eyes were full of worry and thought. Ning Yao pursed her lips, frowned slightly, and her eyes flashed with a firm light. They knew that no matter how tortuous and confusing the future road was, only by uniting the people closely, always upholding justice, and using wisdom, can they build an indestructible foundation for the empire. At this moment, the breeze blew outside the window, and the leaves rustled, as if whispering the fate of the empire. Shen Yu slowly stood up, walked to the window, looked at the sky in the distance, and murmured to himself: "Which of these two prophecies is true and which is false? But no matter what, the people's hearts must not be lost." Ning Yao walked to his side, gently held his hand, and said: "Your Majesty, as long as we are dedicated to the people, we will not be afraid of any unknowns." And the last words left by the mysterious fortune teller, "The real test has just begun," were like a heavy bell, echoing in their hearts for a long time, paving the way for more unknowns and expectations for the future journey that the couple is about to embark on.
