Within a few days, the officials who were sentenced to exile set off with their families in tow.

The scene is extremely spectacular.

Most of the people in the capital gathered on the road they must pass, craning their necks to watch the fun. As they passed by, the onlookers greeted them unceremoniously with rotten vegetables and rotten eggs.

Although Jiang Fuyue couldn't see the excitement in the street in person, she could imagine what kind of scene it was today after listening to Gu Yu, who came back from watching the excitement.

After the laughter, something new came up: "These third-grade officials are vacant. Is there someone in the court who can fill them?"

These third-grade officials are all very important. What's more important is that when this position is vacant, the people below will inevitably be ready to take action, focusing on how to compete for the position, but neglecting their own duties.

Shen Chuan nodded: "Don't worry, someone has already been chosen."

After returning from Liangzhou, the Minister of Civil Affairs was very sad about his words. He had started looking for people in various ministries who could take over a few months ago. He also saw it in person and found that they were indeed usable talents.

Those are all selected from various ministries, and there is no need for running-in. It is natural for the old people to leave the capital and the new people to take over.

Right now, we just need to observe for a few more days, and as long as they don't make any mistakes, we can be sure.

Shen Chuan breathed a sigh of relief.

"Now that this matter has been settled, you will start busy soon, right?" Jiang Fuyue said.

After all, after the sixth prince was imprisoned, no one in the capital could compete with the eldest prince anymore.

Shen Chuan burst out laughing: "Once the new ministers are replaced by the old ones, it won't be my turn to get involved in what happens next."

His tone was understatement, but Jiang Fuyue felt very uncomfortable listening to it.

Shen Chuan worked hard in the capital for several years before he gained the reputation of being a political advisor. Now, he is only one step away from the peak of power. Is it going to stop here?
Jiang Fuyue couldn't help but think of her past life.

In his previous life, Shen Chuan seemed to have never stopped moving toward the pinnacle of power.

It only took him six or seven years to reach the pinnacle of power.

At that time, she was in the Anyuan Marquis Mansion, far away from the whirlpool of power, but she was also aware of Shen Chuan's majesty.

now……

Jiang Fuyue sighed quietly.

I always felt that she was blocking Shen Chuan's way now.

Seeing that she was not in a good mood, Shen Chuan's heart suddenly lifted: "What, are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Jiang Fuyue shook her head.

Perhaps because her mind was extra sensitive during pregnancy, Jiang Fuyue seemed a little absent-minded throughout the day.

Fortunately, the matters in the court had been settled, and Shen Chuan did not have to go there, so he stayed with Jiang Fuyue.

Until night, the two of them were lying on the bed together. Shen Chuan lowered his eyes and looked at Jiang Fuyue, who was obviously thoughtful in his arms, and sighed faintly: "Fuyue, it's been a day, what are you thinking about?"

Jiang Fuyue suddenly came back to her senses and said: "I was thinking that it has been so difficult for you to reach this point, but now you are about to give up... If it weren't for me, you might be able to go higher."

Hearing this, Shen Chuan suddenly became nervous: "Without you? Fuyue, no, I can't live without you."

Seeing that Jiang Fuyue didn't listen to her words at all and was still stuck in his own thoughts, Shen Chuan raised his hand anxiously and held her shoulders, shaking her gently: "Fuyue, did you hear what I said? "

"Huh?" Jiang Fuyue looked up at him and blinked in confusion, "What did you say?"

Shen Chuan took a breath, looked directly into her eyes, and said every word: "I said, I can't live without you."

Jiang Fuyue blinked.

Shen Chuan continued: "To me, power struggle is just a means of seeking excitement when I have nothing to do, but this kind of thing is not necessary-at least not now."

"Right now, you are the most important." The two looked at each other for a moment, and the temperature rose quietly.

Jiang Fuyue was the first to look away and turned over with difficulty: "...Why did you suddenly say such disgusting words..."

Shen Chuan chuckled: "It's just something I feel."

Jiang Fuyue glanced at him.

With his mind settled, he lay on the bed again, and sleepiness came over him like a tide.

Jiang Fuyue fell asleep quickly.

Listening to the breathing of the person beside him, Shen Chuan chuckled helplessly, raised his hand to tuck her into bed, closed his eyes and fell into a light sleep.

There can be a lot of trouble at night, so while I can sleep now, it’s better to recuperate.

-

Since that day, Shen Chuan has never left the door of Shen's house. Even in court, he always found various excuses to shirk.

Jiang Fuyue was naturally worried.

After all, Shen Chuan is now in a high position, and when he loses his strength, others will take action against him.

However, Shen Chuan was not panicked at all.

"Don't worry, it's only been so long, those people won't lose their memory," said Mr. Shen. "After you give birth safely and take good care of yourself, I will go and ask your Majesty to send me an errand, and let's change it together." Local life.”

The turmoil in the capital has never stopped. It is prosperous, but it is not a good place.

Jiang Fuyue was still worried: "You have offended many people in the court over the years. Can we leave?"

Now that they are under His Majesty's nose, those people still have some scruples, but if they leave, I'm afraid...

Shen Chuan chuckled: "Don't worry, these people in my hands are not just for good looks. It will not be a problem to protect our safety. What's more, if they don't want their old background to be exposed, no one will dare to attack us. "

He was so sure that Jiang Fuyue believed him.

Anyway, it's still a long time now, so he can just worry about the things outside. She can't think about that much now.

-

In the blink of an eye, another few months have passed.

That afternoon, just as Jiang Fuyue was about to get up, her face suddenly turned pale and she fell back halfway up.

Shen Chuan quickly put his arm around her shoulders, gently helped her lie down, and looked at her nervously: "What's wrong?"

Jiang Fuyue was speechless for a moment. In just a few breaths, the color disappeared from her face, and large drops of cold sweat broke out on her forehead.

Seeing this, Shen Chuan still didn't understand anything.

He quickly called Jingzhe Guyu to come in. Seeing this, Bai Lu didn't even need Shen Chuan's instructions and went to find the midwife.

The midwives were all let into the house half a month in advance. At this time, they all just needed to say hello and they all came.

When Meng Huaian heard the news, he quickly ran over with the medicine box on his back, and methodically directed his servants to prepare things that would be used later.

Seeing this, Shen Chuan went out to the palace in person and invited Mr. Zhang to come and take charge.

Mr. Zhang came to the courtyard and took a look and said, "Mr. Shen, does Madam have any family members or close friends in Beijing? It would be best to call her over to accompany Madam."

Shen Chuan frowned: "I was negligent, Wei Ze."

"Go and ask Mrs. Xie to come over." (End of Chapter)
