When Emperor Zhaowu said this, his tone revealed relief and happiness.

Huo Junyao's resignation had a different meaning to him.

Not only did it allow him to obtain home-made bombs to deter enemy countries, Huo Junyao's relenting this time also showed that even if she had resentment in her heart, she had not yet reached the point where she could not turn around.

As for what to do next, after so many times, he also had a plan.

"Your Majesty is wise, it was not the princess's fault in the first place. On the contrary, those guys deserved their crimes and deserved to die."

Ning Guogong now has a considerable affection for Huo Junyao.

This is a great talent. Just look at someone's advice, and his old Cheng family got such a big deal.

If he makes friends with such a person and can get some guidance in the future, will he still need to worry about money?

Of course, apart from these, Huo Jingzhi and he have been good friends for many years, and it is right for him to speak up for his old friend's daughter.

Fang Qiao on the side cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty is wise, but this matter may cause trouble in the court."

He clearly saw the actions of the Guanzhong Group at this court meeting, and made it clear that they did not want to make things easier for Huo Junyao.

Even if they can't do anything to the other party for the time being, they will never want Huo Junyao to rise again.

After hearing what he said, Meng Xuancheng, Ding Guogong and others also discovered that among the people summoned by the emperor at this time, the deeply trusted Zhao Guogong Shen Huan was not among the people summoned by the emperor.

If we want to say who among them has the closest relationship with Emperor Zhaowu, it must be Shen Huan. Even Huo Jingzhi has to stand in the back row.

Whenever something happened, Emperor Zhaowu would always call Shen Huan if he wanted to discuss it with someone. Even if Shen Huan had withdrawn from the court, if there was a big event, Shen Huan would definitely be there.

Now that Shen Huan is out working again, logically speaking, his favor will definitely continue.

Just like when we discussed the matter of dividing the family into two households, the first person summoned was Shen Huan, which was enough to see the emperor's attitude towards him.

"What do I want to do, and what explanation do I need to give them?"

"This is a matter of great benefit to the country and the people. How can we allow them to comment?"

He had already planned to summon Shen Huan alone later to talk to him about the matter.

At the same time, he also wanted to see whether his brother-in-law Shen Huan was more interested in the imperial court or the Guanzhong Group.

After all, it was because of what happened last time that he had a lot of criticism towards Shen Huan.

His original intention in calling Shen Huan over was to let him take the lead, which would make subsequent matters easier to deal with.

As a result, Shen Huan not only failed to fulfill his expectations, but also took a very bad lead. He actually took the lead in resisting the imperial power and even assassinated the princess Huo Junyao to defy the imperial power.

When he heard the news at that time, no one knew the rage in his heart.

However, he still messed up the matter because of the difference between his two thoughts.

Why is it said that there are two thoughts? One is naturally that his thoughts are bound by the position of the emperor. He only thinks about playing the art of emperor balance, but ignores many things. Fortunately, the emperor woke him up by scolding him.

The second reason is naturally because of Shen Huan. After all, the person involved in this matter is the Guanzhong Group, and Shen Huan is the leader of the Guanzhong Group, and his son is clearly involved, which makes it a bit difficult for him to deal with it.

This was also the fundamental reason why he hesitated even though he had already investigated the situation.

"The Emperor is right. Princess Zhaode has made great contributions to the Yu Dynasty and has extraordinary abilities. We cannot let her be buried here."

Meng Xuancheng also spoke.

Whether Princess Zhaode's title was restored was not a big deal to him.

After all, she is just a woman, so what if her title is restored?

The impact on the court situation is not great, and more of it is just the emperor's favor.

If it were just a vase, he might still say a few words, but people have great talents, and such people deserve such grace.

Otherwise, how can people contribute to the Yu Dynasty?

"If that's the case, I don't have any objections from my side. I can transfer 10,000 guan to the palace of Princess Zhaode later."

Chen Hua, who originally thought it would cost a lot of money, now heard that it was only 10,000 yuan. The treasury could still come up with this amount of money, so naturally he would not object. After all, if you can spend ten thousand guan, you can buy stability on the border this winter. This is definitely a big profit.

"Since all the ministers have no objections, Gao Fu will announce the decree later."

Gao Fu quickly bowed and responded.

When the officials dispersed, Gao Fu took the imperial edict and left.

Before he left the imperial study, Emperor Zhaowu also gave him an order to go and see Xuan Shenhuan.

Soon Shen Huan came.

"Brother, come and sit."

Shen Huan was startled when he heard his title. He didn't feel flattered at all by Emperor Zhaowu's closeness. Instead, he felt that Emperor Zhaowu must be up to something.

Combined with the actions of the Guanzhong Group in the court today, he had some guesses in his mind.

But he didn't say anything. Instead, he walked over and sat down.

"There have been a lot of things going on in the imperial court recently, and I have a lot of things to worry about."

"The affairs of the people in the country and the border are all top priorities. I feel that at such a critical moment, everyone in the court should work together. What do you think, brother?"

Hearing this, Shen Huan nodded quickly and said, "What the emperor said is absolutely true. I know what to do."

"What happens at the great court meeting is not the result of my orders."

"I naturally believe this. You made great contributions to the establishment of the Yu Dynasty back then."

"But as time goes by, the mentality of those who followed us has changed a lot."

"As everyone knows, only when the Yu Dynasty is stable can everyone become rich and powerful together, don't you think so?"

"What the Emperor said is absolutely true."

When Shen Huan left the imperial study and returned to Zhao Guogong's mansion, his son found him immediately.

He told the emperor that he had restored the title of Princess Zhaode.

Only then did Shen Huan understand what Emperor Zhaowu meant when he suddenly came to him and said those words.

"Father, how could the emperor do this?"

"We suffered so much this time, and yet we recovered like this. Isn't he afraid that we will be disappointed?"

As Shen Tai finished speaking, Shen Huan's face suddenly darkened, and he raised his hand and slapped him in the face.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Shen Tai was stunned by his father's slap, but when he saw his father's gloomy expression, he knew that there was something wrong with what he just said.

"Dad, my son said the wrong thing."

"You have to remember who gave our Shen family what they have today. Without the Yu Dynasty, the Shen family is nothing."

"So you'd better remember it clearly for me. The Yu Dynasty cannot be in chaos. This is related to the wealth of my Shen family. If you can't even understand this, I'm afraid the Duke of Zhao's mansion will not survive."

Hearing this, Shen Tai nodded repeatedly.

"Okay, you will inform those guys later and ask them to be honest. The emperor has his own intentions in doing this. If you don't want to end up like the twelve families, just do your duty as a minister. Only in this way can wealth and honor be preserved.”

"Otherwise, when the emperor's butcher knife is raised, don't blame me for not interceding for them."
