Dressed as a vicious stepmother, farming and raising cubs

General Wen was stunned for a moment, then smiled, shook his head and said:

"I am already old. I hope your majesty will allow you to retire and return to your hometown."

Hearing this, the new emperor showed a look of surprise on his face, and said with some reluctance:

"I naturally respect the general's wishes, but..."

"This is your youngest son." General Wen pushed Wen Shiye out from behind him. "Although he is a little reckless, he is still a talented general."

Wen Shiye was also rarely clever and quickly knelt down.

"I, Wen Shiye, will definitely follow Your Majesty to the death."

"Okay, how about you taking over the position of General Zhenyuan?" The new emperor readily agreed.

Unexpectedly, General Wen's expression changed and he shook his head repeatedly.

"My son still needs some experience, so don't give him such a high official position."

Wen Shiye naturally listened to his words and nodded accordingly.

The new emperor pondered for a moment and said slowly:

"Then... give him the position of local governor. If he makes meritorious service in the future, I will promote him."

"I thank you Lord for your kindness."

Wen Shiye quickly knelt down to thank him with a respectful attitude. He has become much calmer now, with a bit of Wen Shizhao's shadow.

After settling General Wen's side, the new emperor looked at Shen Luochen again.

"Shen Aiqing, you are also my benefactor. I intend to grant you the position of prime minister."

As soon as the words fell, almost everyone present took a breath.

That is the prime minister who is inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people. Compared with Shen Luochen's original official position, it is a step up to the sky.

Before Shen Luochen himself could speak, someone after the civil service couldn't help but speak.

"Your Majesty, think twice. Mr. Shen has made great contributions and should be given a high position. But is this position too authoritarian?"

The implication is obvious, implying that Shen Luochen will achieve great results.

The new emperor glanced at him lightly and scolded:

"Don't talk nonsense. If Shen Aiqing can afford it, then he can afford it."

However, Shen Luochen caught a fleeting look of hesitation in his eyes.

He knew that although the new emperor in front of him was diligent and hard-working, there was one thing that was very similar to his father, and that was his suspicion.

This is also related to his own background. He has lived on thin ice since he was a child, so he is used to questioning everyone.

And if he really accepted the position of prime minister, he probably wouldn't end up well.

"Your Majesty, please allow me to refuse the position of prime minister." He knelt on his knees and said solemnly.

As soon as these words came out, not only did the new emperor not expect it, but the other ministers were also shocked.

After all, that was the highest honor second only to the emperor, and none of them expected Shen Luochen to refuse.

"Why did Shen Aiqing say this?" The new emperor's face was full of confusion, "If you have other ambitions, I can also fulfill them."

Shen Luochen shook his head again and smiled openly.

"I have fulfilled my greatest wish in this life. I have nothing to do with the affairs of the previous dynasty. I hope your Majesty will agree."

The new emperor frowned, still looking incredulous:

"But you are still so young..."

Shen Luochen still had a smile on his face and said calmly:

"If your Majesty really wants to reward me, then reward me with some gold and silver. As long as I am safe and wealthy for the rest of my life, I will be satisfied."

The new emperor looked at him with a complicated expression, and finally sighed.

"Okay, I'll make it happen for you."

Shen Luochen sold his house in the capital and returned to Yucheng with Su Liu. On the way, he happened to be with General Wen.

General Wen was also extremely surprised to learn that Su Liu was pregnant with his grandson. He immediately said that his retirement life was settled and he was waiting to have a grandson. They first went to the General's Mansion and picked up the three children, and then moved back to their old house in Fengcheng.

Although General Wen and Mrs. Li both felt reluctant to leave, fortunately the two families were not far away and they could visit at any time.

Returning to this familiar and warm little nest, Su Liu felt that everything was just like a dream.

It has been two or three years since she came to this world. At first, she only thought about how to survive alone in this strange world. But now, she has people around her who she can rely on.

Shen Luochen took out the money from the new emperor's reward and renovated the old house from top to bottom. The whole yard was completely new. He also bought various supplements for Su Liu, and fed them in different ways every day.

Su Liu gained weight due to his unremitting efforts.

Every time she looked at her belly that was getting rounder and fatter, she sighed silently and vowed to herself that she would lose weight when the little one was born.

Nine months later, the day of delivery finally came.

They had invited Wen Po in advance, but when the day came, they were still in a hurry.

Shen Luochen was a hundred times more anxious than Su Liu himself. He was carrying water and delivering tools before and after running for fear that something would go wrong.

Su Liu lay on the bed, excruciating pain, her clothes were soaked with sweat, and she didn't even have the strength to scream.

"Madam, work hard!" Po Wen encouraged patiently from the side, "Be careful not to breathe too fast!"

Although someone stopped her, Shen Luochen was still worried and rushed into the delivery room.

Seeing Su Liu's painful look, he was heartbroken and hurriedly ran to her bed and held her hand.

"Liu'er!"

Vaguely, when Su Liu saw that familiar face, he suddenly felt motivated again and continued to work hard.

Suddenly, a loud cry came from the house.

Po Wen's face was filled with joy, she neatly cut the umbilical cord and carried her in front of the two of them.

"Congratulations to both of you! It's a cute baby girl!"

Su Liu was sweating profusely and smiled happily when he saw the newly born little guy with wrinkled skin.

Shen Luochen had no time to worry about his newborn daughter, and still looked at Su Liu with worry on his face.

"Liu'er, how do you feel? Where else do you feel uncomfortable?"

Su Liu shook her head firmly, but secretly swore in her heart that she would never give birth again. This was too painful!

A few days later, she recovered somewhat and began to hold her daughter in her arms and bask in the sun in the yard all day long.

The three dolls always gathered around and observed the new sister curiously.

"Do you like sister?" Su Liu smiled at them.

The three dolls nodded in unison, their eyes barely leaving the little baby in her arms.

Su Liu shook the child in his arms and said to himself happily:

"Le Yan is good at reading, Le Shui is good at martial arts, and Qing Qing is clever and clever. This child should follow me, right?"

The dolls didn't understand her words and just blinked at her.

"I want to - train my daughter to be a business genius!" Su Liu raised his fist, looking high-spirited.

This scene happened to be caught by Shen Luochen in the corridor. Not only did a row of black lines appear on his head.

This woman is still as unpredictable as when we first met.

He looked at the smile that was particularly bright in the sun, and curled up his lips in a helpless smile.

But just let her be happy.

After all, who can say for sure what will happen in the future?
