Emperor Shen's charming wife

Chapter 167 Courage is commendable

Li Muyun's arrival has added a lot of joy to the palace and brought many interesting stories. In order to eradicate the hidden dangers, Shen Yu and Ning Yao worked together to carry out reforms, vigorously implemented a series of policies that benefit the people, and further strengthened border defense forces, just to ensure the long-term stability of the country. With their unremitting efforts, the country is becoming more and more prosperous, the people are living a peaceful and happy life, and the whole society presents a beautiful picture of harmony and stability. On a silent night, Shen Yu and Ning Yao strolled leisurely in the long corridor of the palace. The bright moonlight poured down like water, stretching their figures slenderly. Shen Yu said softly, "Yao'er, do you still remember the scene when we first met?" Ning Yao raised her head slightly, her eyes full of memories: "Of course I remember. At that time, you were like a cold and ruthless statue, high above, and I was just a willful and spoiled princess." Shen Yu raised the corners of his mouth, with a smile in his eyes: "At that time, I only thought you were a vase with nothing in it. I never thought that you were so talented, intelligent and courageous." Ning Yao glanced at him coquettishly: "At that time, I also believed that you were a cruel and inhumane tyrant. Who would have thought that you are actually a man full of love, responsibility and courage." Shen Yu gently embraced Ning Yao in his arms, and said with emotion: "We have experienced so many ups and downs together, and now we can accompany each other." Ning Yao leaned on Shen Yu's chest and said gently: "We have experienced many life and death tests, and finally we have reaped this rare happiness." The two of them leaned on each other, cherishing the hard-earned tranquility in front of them. They knew that all of this was the result of their joint efforts, and they were willing to give everything for each other. However, just when everything seemed to be settled and life was becoming peaceful, a secret letter from a distant country broke the peace like a stone thrown into a calm lake. Shen Yu frowned, staring at the contents of the letter, and his face instantly became solemn. Ning Yao saw that he looked wrong and asked anxiously, "What's wrong?" Shen Yu took a deep breath and said slowly, "This is a letter from a neighboring country. The letter said that a mysterious force appeared on the border of our country. Their whereabouts are erratic, their purpose is unknown, and their actions are extremely strange." Ning Yao looked puzzled and asked, "What does this mean? Do they want to stir up trouble?" Shen Yu shook his head and said in a deep voice, "I don't know, but I always have a bad feeling in my heart. This mysterious force may bring a huge threat to our country." Ning Yao looked nervous and asked, "Then what should we do?" Shen Yu looked... Guang said firmly and decisively: "We must immediately strengthen the border defense force, and at the same time send elite people to investigate this mysterious force, and we must find out their intentions." Ning Yao nodded without hesitation and said: "Okay, I support you." Shen Yu was full of gratitude: "Thank you." Ning Yao held his hand and said firmly: "We are husband and wife, and we should face difficulties together." Shen Yu nodded heavily: "I know, I will not let you down." The unknown threat mentioned in the letter was like a dark cloud, foreshadowing the coming of new challenges, and once again cast an unknown shadow on the future life of the royal couple. On a sunny day not long after, a group of envoys from Dongyi arrived in the palace. They claimed to be celebrating the end of the war and promoting friendship between the two countries. The members of these Dongyi envoys were all dressed in gorgeous costumes and had seemingly sincere smiles on their faces. However, during their days in the palace, they frequently carried out private activities. All this did not escape Shen Yu's eyes. He keenly noticed the abnormality and his vigilance was instantly raised. Ning Yao also discovered clues during a conversation with them. They were flickering in their words and their eyes were wandering from time to time, as if they were deliberately hiding something. Especially when the topic involved the internal affairs of the empire, they showed extraordinary interest and kept asking questions, which made Ning Yao feel suspicious. What on earth are these Dongyi people thinking? What is their real purpose? Relying on his extensive connections in the world, Li Muyun quietly conducted an in-depth investigation of the details of the members of the delegation. He found that in this seemingly ordinary delegation, there were actually many masters who were proficient in disguise and espionage. These masters were hidden in the delegation, and it would be extremely difficult to be discovered without careful investigation. Li Muyun hurriedly fed back this important information to Shen Yu, which further confirmed that the purpose of the Dongyi delegation's trip was not simple. On a dark and windy night, the palace was silent, and only the footsteps of patrolling soldiers occasionally broke the tranquility. A sneaky member of the delegation, dressed in night clothes, tried to sneak into the forbidden area of ​​the palace. However, Shen Yu was prepared, and his carefully deployed sentries had been closely monitoring the surrounding movements. As soon as the member of the delegation approached, he was captured by the well-trained sentries. Later, under severe interrogation, the member of the delegation initially tried to grit his teeth and refused to tell the truth. But under Shen Yu's majesty and various interrogation methods, he finally couldn't hold on, and revealed his contempt for Shen Yu's royal power, and hinted that there was a more powerful force behind them secretly controlling everything. Faced with this series of blatant provocations, Shen Yu and Ning Yao looked at each other and decided to remain silent. They carefully laid a net in secret, determined to eliminate this hidden undercurrent in one fell swoop. Inside the palace, Shen Yu and Ning Yao discussed countermeasures in a secret room. The flickering candlelight reflected their solemn faces. "This group of Dongyi people are so arrogant, we must not let them succeed." Ning Yao frowned and said. Shen Yu nodded slightly, his eyes firm: "We need to be careful and must not alert the enemy." On the other side, the leader of the Dongyi delegation paced back and forth in the room, looking anxious. "Shen Yu and Ning Yao seem to have made some moves, we must be more cautious." The subordinates nodded one after another, looking nervous. However, the other party seemed to have noticed something, and the actions became more secretive. The original frequent private activities decreased, and the members of the delegation became more cautious in their words and deeds in the palace. But all this is just the calm before the storm. A more intense conflict is brewing in secret, laying the groundwork for the upcoming thrilling confrontation.
