Princess Chongning's mansion has about five thousand private soldiers, which was personally agreed to by the late emperor.

With this quantity, on the edge of the imperial city, if she were a prince, it would be possible for her to directly control the entire capital.

However, others did not take it seriously as a prostitute, and felt that it would not lead to any scandal, so no minister mentioned the matter, and it has been carried on to this day.

"Why did the emperor suddenly mobilize so many people to leave the capital?"

The little emperor looked at the request document in his hand and asked after thinking for a moment. It was the first time that he did not immediately agree to the eldest princess's request.

Shen Yuluo told the truth: "Oh, I see there is a sect in the world that I don't like. They have bullied the people of this palace and want to get it back."

"Sister Huang, actually I really can't see through you sometimes. Is this a move to attack the east and attack the west? Or is it to hide one's strength and bide one's time?"

The little emperor rarely looked serious. He felt that he was so stupid for naively thinking that the emperor's sister was kind to him from the bottom of her heart, and even felt a little guilty.

The few things she has done recently are all interference in government affairs.

Although she did many ridiculous things in the past, they had nothing to do with government affairs. No matter what the trouble was, he could find an excuse to end it for her.

He is also willing to pamper this stupid and bad sister and give her endless glory and wealth.If one day she suddenly stopped being stupid, all the bad things she had done before would become a sharp sword in his hand and kill her.

But now, what she did was somewhat confusing to him.

If she really wanted to get involved in politics, then if she rashly reached out to the government at this time, the consequences would not be too good. Why would she expose the illusion that she had been running for a long time so early for an insignificant Chen Liang?

If she had no interest in government affairs, how could she be so close to Pei Yan?She even asked Pei Yan to speak for her, and even asked Prince Huai, who had disappeared to be happy, to make an exception for her and get involved.

Now he starts messing around again, participating in some Jianghu sect affairs, and most likely it is some kind of trick to hide from others.

"what are you saying?"

Shen Yuluo was a little confused. For a moment, she didn't realize whether the little emperor was talking to her or not. Why didn't the content of what they said match?

She stared with doubtful eyes, and her clear stupidity made people not want to doubt her.

"Sister Huang, do you really not understand what I am talking about? Okay, then let me ask you, why do people who are so obsessed with the Northwest War and don't even believe in me ask Uncle Seventeen and that Xue to send military pay? You What is the purpose of doing this?"

The little emperor decided to test her one last time and asked very straightforwardly.

No, were they talking about this just now?

His thinking jumps a bit fast.

But Shen Yuluo decided to answer him: "Hao'er, do you still remember Concubine Gao?"

"What does this have to do with her?" The little emperor frowned, very puzzled.

"Of course it's relevant. Besides, I'm not doing all this just for you."

Shen Yuluo had already prepared a statement on this matter. The little emperor would definitely ask her about her unusual behavior during this period, but now he just said it in advance.

Looking at the puzzled expression of the little emperor, she continued: "Now the world's military power is divided into three parts, one of which is in the hands of Old General Gao, but he is disabled and can no longer go to the battlefield. The Gao family is full, and only Gao Rulan is left. A granddaughter.”

"If Gao Rulan had not had a miscarriage and had given birth to a prince, if the Gao family wanted to seize power and interfere in politics, they could have supported the child to become a puppet emperor at any time. By then, Hao'er, you would be in danger."

"But at that time, after Gao Rulan gave birth, I went to see her. She was not eating or drinking, her body was broken, and she only had half a life left. It is a serious crime for a concubine to commit suicide, but if she continues like this, she will definitely die. If the Gao family loses all their descendants, they will do something crazy if they are angry and unable to save them all."

"So I used the strategy of feigning death and sent Gao Rulan away. Now that Concubine Gao is dead, she is just an unknown person in the northwest border. Not only can she not cause any trouble, but as long as she does not die, the Gao family will definitely be loyal. "Uncle Seventeen will go north on this trip and send generous military pay. If he takes special care of Concubine Gao, she will be safer in the army, and the Gao family army who follows her will also feel grateful to the emperor. The northwest warriors have military pay." I will work even harder. When the time comes, a great victory at the border will be a great achievement for His Majesty. You get the best of both worlds, so why not do it?"

Shen Yuluo's words were half true and half false. They were said with sincerity and his analysis made perfect sense.

Moreover, she did not come forward in the whole matter. Even if she had credit, it would only fall on the emperor in the end, and she would not get any benefits or reputation at all.

"Is this really true? Then why didn't the emperor care about this before?"

The little emperor's doubts had been dispelled a lot. Now his eyes softened when he looked at her, and his questioning sentences turned into a coquettish tone.

It seems that he has returned to the younger brother who only followed his sister.

"Because of a person, he taught me that indulging in short-term beauty will turn into a delicious piece of food. I used to think that these things did not need to be done by myself, so I did whatever I wanted, but after experiencing this, I grew up. Hao'er, we are no longer children, it's time for you to grow up."

Shen Yuluo lowered her eyes, and her calm and low tone made people feel inexplicable sadness.

"Is it Chen Liang?"

"Yes."

After hearing her answer, the little emperor finally felt relieved and felt a little guilty about the eldest princess because of his speculation some time ago.

Chen Liang is indeed a villain who is not worth trusting. Sister Huang was really heartbroken this time, so she cared about him even more.

This makes sense. His imperial sister had no intention of harming him.

As for that secret past incident, it seemed that she was completely unaware of it.

The changes during this period are just that people are not kind to each other.

"Sister Huang, it's all my fault for doubting you..."

The little emperor leaned over, pulled Shen Yuluo's sleeve, and apologized in a low voice.

"Si Hao'er, how could the emperor blame you?"

Shen Yuluo patted his shoulder and thought to himself, Sister Huang will only trick you and take advantage of you, hehe.

"Just now you said that you would send private soldiers out of the capital, and I agreed. What about the Five Poison Sect? Is it powerful or not? If there are enough men and horses, I will lend you some more!"

The softness in the little emperor's heart was touched, and now he was thinking of finding a way to make up for his sister. He would agree to any request as long as it was not too excessive.

"Thank you my Hao'er."

The name Shen Yuluo became more and more familiar as she was called. As long as he could help her with things, he was her good brother, no matter if he was a relative or not.

After returning home.

After sorting out the private soldiers, they decided to set off in three days.

"Your Highness, there is an old man visiting from outside. He said he has something important to discuss. His surname is Chen and his given name is Shu."
