After Shen Nanfeng and his party arrived at Qidi, the funeral arrangements for His Majesty and the Queen had been completed.

Shen Nanfeng and Han Su stood in front of the tomb, burning incense and worshiping.

When they arrived at the master's tomb, Han Su felt a little depressed.

She carefully tore apart each piece of paper money and put it into the brazier to burn.

"Master said before his death that he wanted to see you alone, but he never could."

"The Queen wants to see me? Why?"

"I probably want to see you. Do you know that I have never been close to anyone since I entered the Immortal Pavilion, but when I returned to Kyoto, there was a man beside me. Master probably wants to see you as an elder."

Hearing this, Shen Nanfeng also understood.

Immediately kneel down in front of the grave and kowtow respectfully.

"Queen, Your Majesty is alive in heaven. I, Shen Nanfeng, come to pay my respects to the two elders today!"

Han Su lit the incense and handed it to Shen Nanfeng.

Then he said: "My master is not my mother-in-law, but I am better than my mother-in-law. I never dared to think that she would leave one day. To this day, I feel like I am dreaming."

Maybe only at this time will she show her vulnerable side.

Shen Nanfeng comforted her softly: "The deceased is gone. She must really want to see you live happily."

"Shen Nanfeng, do you like the North?"

"This place has a broad view and picturesque scenery. It would be a good thing to live here."

"Master used to always mention the Northern Territory, saying that the grasslands here are vast. When riding a horse and singing, it feels like there is no restraint between heaven and earth. She has always wanted to come back, but she didn't expect that when she returned, she would have already..."

Speaking of this, Han Su shook his head.

Shen Nanfeng suddenly said: "How about we come here in the future?"

"Us? Do you know what you are talking about?"

Han Su's expression was a little unconcerned, and she turned to glance at Shen Nanfeng, as if with a bit of expectation.

This time Shen Nanfeng did not escape and grabbed Han Su's hand.

"Of course I know what I'm talking about, Asu, maybe you don't believe it, but I've known you for a long, long time. I watched you be born, I watched you grow up, I watched you grow from hardship and helplessness again and again, Fortunately, I came to you this time. I don’t know how to express my feelings for you, but I know that the moment you jumped off the carriage in front of Han Mansion, you came alive in my heart. …”

Before Shen Nanfeng could finish speaking, Han Su snorted coldly and opened Shen Nanfeng's hand.

"What are you talking nonsense about? What about watching me being born, about seeing me for the first time coming to life in your heart? Are you confused by your sleep?"

Han Su glared at Shen Nanfeng angrily.

But what she didn't know was that these were Shen Nanfeng's inner thoughts.

He knew in his heart that his relationship with Han Su began at the moment when he put pen to paper.

But the relationship between Han Su and himself only started from the first sight in front of the Han Mansion.

"Asu, I like you, no, I love you deeply."

As soon as these words came out, Han Su was suddenly stunned.

The breeze blew her hair, but her eyes flickered with confusion.

"Oh, Mr. Shen, you and I have only known each other for a short time, but you just say the word "deep love", doesn't it seem a bit frivolous?"

"Asu thinks I'm a frivolous deceit?"

"At least you make me feel frivolous when you say that."

Shen Nanfeng was speechless, just looking at Han Su quietly, with tenderness hidden in his eyes.

"But I...have really known you for a long, long time..."

"Hmph! If you want to express your feelings to a girl, be sincere and don't say these weird things. If you like her, just say you like her. Sincerity is more important than anything else."

"I like Asu, I just want to stay with you!"

"Aren't we staying together now?"

"No...I mean, I want to be with Asu from now on."

"If you want to marry me, go to the Han Mansion to propose marriage."

"Then...if I really propose marriage, can you agree?" "No!" Han Su turned around and burned the paper money, but a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"Why?" Shen Nanfeng was a little anxious.

"you guess."

It was the first time that Shen Nanfeng felt that girls were so elusive.

"I can not guess it……"

"Then you go and try. When you are rejected, you will know the reason."

Shen Nanfeng lowered his head, thoughtfully.

"Oh……"

"Hmph! Aren't you scared?"

"What am I afraid of? When I go back this time, I will propose marriage to the Han family. No matter what, I will marry you!"

Shen Nanfeng seemed to be announcing something again.

Han Su had a faint smile on his lips and didn't say much.

……

After paying homage to the emperor and queen, Shen Nanfeng went to see King Qin alone.

When he saw King Qin again, he seemed a little tired.

It looked like the armor had been taken off for a long time, and there were old blood stains on it.

"Your Highness, long time no see."

"You don't want to call me Brother Qin anymore?"

Shen Nanfeng smiled and said, "If Qin Wangji likes me to call him that, then there is nothing wrong with me calling him that."

"Did brother ask you to invite me back?"

Shen Nanfeng did not hide anything and took out the imperial edict and placed it in front of King Qin.

King Qin poured two glasses of wine without even looking.

"Come, have a drink with me."

"Happy to accompany."

After the two had a few drinks, King Qin slowly asked:

"I heard that you have pledged allegiance to eldest brother?"

Shen Nanfeng did not hide this.

"Yes."

"When I invited Brother Shen several times, Brother Shen didn't express his position. I thought you didn't want to participate in the power struggle, but I didn't expect that you would still have to do it at this time."

Today there were only himself and King Qin, so Shen Nanfeng had no worries.

"Your Highness, why do you think I didn't choose you?"

"Isn't it because this king is weak?"

"That's not entirely true. If you are a king, any man from the Dugu family, whether it is the prince or you, can be a good emperor, but his temperament is slightly different. The reason why I don't want to support you is because I am a cunning person. If it is in the hands of His Highness the Prince, it will definitely become a murderous sword, but that will only bring you one step closer to failure."

"Brother Shen, I don't understand what you are saying. Why don't you elaborate?"

"To be precise, you have no chance of winning today. Your chance of winning is not today, so it is destined that I cannot choose to be loyal to you. Your Highness, King Qin, if you want to succeed, you must miss at least two perfect opportunities."

"Oh? What you said makes me even more confused. Why did you miss two perfect opportunities? Which two times were they?"

"The first opportunity is now. With hundreds of thousands of imperial soldiers and horses in your hands, it seems at first glance that you can seize the throne with your sword pointed at Luoyang, but this is actually a fatal opportunity."

Hearing that Shen Nanfeng and Han Wenyuan said the same thing, King Qin couldn't help but think deeply.

"Why is this a fatal time? Do you think I will lose? Or do you think I am not qualified to sit on that throne?!"

At this moment, King Qin had no intention of hiding his ambition and looked at Shen Nanfeng with sharp eyes.
