Marry a traitor

"I'm sorry just now. My tone was bad. I shouldn't have yelled at you."

The green medicine eyes formed two moons, biting the porcelain bowl with a smile on his face, and Shitou also became embarrassed.

"Miss Green Medicine, don't trouble me anymore. I'll make you brown sugar water every day."

..........

Lu Yao's smiling eyes immediately turned into two knives, and he cut out the stone fiercely.

"Water your flowers!"

You shouldn't expect Shitou to say anything nice, or to trouble him. Lu Yao drank the brown sugar water in one gulp and went to wash the dishes.

When Shen Yu returned home in the evening, Wang Wan had prepared dinner and was waiting for him to eat with him.

"How was your day?"

Wang Wan could only ask Shen Yu about the Gongyuan affairs. Shen Yu took a bite of the sweet-scented osmanthus crisp lotus root and said quietly: "There are more exams this year than in previous years. This time the emperor came to inspect them in person."

Wang Wan rolled his eyes slightly, probably because there were so many people this year, and the emperor couldn't help but look at the new ones.

"It seems that this year's examination will surely produce several talents to serve the imperial court."

Shen Yu was a little tired today and had no appetite, so he put down his chopsticks early: "Xie Yan seems to be able to stand out."

It had been a long time since she heard any news from Shen Yu about Xie Yan. Wang Wan knew that Xie Yan would take the exam today, so she kept silent about Xie Yan, but Shen Yu spoke first.

"Xie Yan!"

Wang Wan bit his wooden chopsticks and briefly recalled this person.

“How do you know he can stand out?”

Shen Yu was in the Gongyuan today. While inspecting the candidates, he took a look at Xie Yan's test paper. The paper was neat and organized. Xie Yan seemed to have a plan in mind and answered the test paper meticulously.

He had seen so many people, and Xie Yan was one of the few serious people.

"Xie Yan's demeanor made me feel that he seemed to be very confident about the content on the paper. And after I took a look at it, he seemed to know what was going to be tested and answered the test paper without hesitation."

Whether Xie Yan knew the questions in the test paper or not, Shen Yu had no way of checking. In the past, many candidates had guessed the questions correctly. It was purely a coincidence.

But today, Shen Yu felt that Xie Yan seemed to really know the topic. Others would write it down on the manuscript paper first when they got the test paper, but he started writing directly, with hundreds of words, word for word.

"Xie Yan has been preparing for this exam for a long time. I heard that he stayed at home all day just to get a good rank in the exam. Maybe he has seen enough and he will be able to do it naturally."

Wang Wan remembered that Xie Yan worked very hard in his previous life and wanted to gain fame and honor his ancestors. Therefore, for a period of time in his previous life, Xie Yan ignored her invitations to play and studied at home. In the end, he successfully passed the joint examination and ranked lowest in the palace examination. He took up a post in the government.

Shen Yu felt that both Wang Wan and Xie Yan were a little strange, but he couldn't explain it. Maybe he was overthinking it. Wang Wan was right. Xie Yan worked hard to gain fame, which was his wish.

"I heard from my sister today that the princess told her that the emperor wanted the second prince to go to Northern Xinjiang."

This is really a new thing. Shen Yu doesn't even know about it. He is busy doing experiments these days and has no time to ask about things in the palace.

"When did it happen?" Shen Yu asked.

"Just two days ago, I heard what the emperor wanted. The empress is dominating. The second prince's body and bones can be trampled to death by ants in northern Xinjiang. What should he do if he is so weak? Are he looking for death?"

Shen Yu: "I can't figure out the true meaning of the emperor's thoughts this time, but the queen will definitely stop him. Even a blind person can see that she is extremely partial to the second prince."

Wang Wan certainly didn't want the second prince to go to Northern Xinjiang to cause trouble. He was a spoiled prince who was blind on the battlefield, but he also wanted to cause trouble to brother Wu Feng and the eldest prince.

Moreover, the second prince has a stubborn character and always only cares about his own ideas. If he insists on having his own way and does not obey military orders, something will happen sooner or later. "Sister, I said that the Queen is indeed trying to keep the second prince in her place. I wonder if she has convinced the emperor."

Shen Yu knew the emperor's temper. When he was angry, no one would listen to him. When the anger dissipated, he would pretend that nothing happened.

"If the second prince really goes, Northern Xinjiang will be really lively."

Wang Wan thought that the second prince had gone to Northern Xinjiang. The eldest prince would definitely train this younger brother whom he had not seen for many years. The eldest prince was cautious in doing things and could not stand such a frivolous person like the second prince. Therefore, the emperor let Of the two of them, one is in the palace and the other is guarding the northern border.

"I'm afraid the second prince won't be able to go."

Shen Yu's intuition was always very accurate. If the second prince couldn't go, someone else would definitely go.

"The second prince can't go, could it be..."

Wang Wan also thought of someone, but thought it was impossible.

"Are you trying to say that the second prince won't go, but someone will go to Northern Xinjiang in his place?" Shen Yu asked.

Wang Wan nodded: "Yes."

"Fifth prince?"

"Lao Wu?"

The two blurted out almost at the same time. Shen Yu pinched a handful of melon seeds and placed them in front of Wang Wan. She liked to eat melon seeds after meals.

"I think if we really want to go to Northern Xinjiang, the second prince will definitely not go, but the fifth prince may go."

Wang Wan analyzed while eating melon seeds.

Shen Yu thought for a while: "The only shortcoming of the fifth prince is that he is not good at using force. If he goes to Northern Xinjiang, it is better not to go."

Wang Wan tried hard to recall his previous life. Northern Xinjiang had not always been peaceful. Later, the enemy invaded, and the people were in dire straits. The people of the country were in dire straits for a long time.

The emperor suddenly remembered to send the prince to Northern Xinjiang. Could it be that the emperor noticed something strange in Northern Xinjiang?

But in her previous life, when she was about to die, she had to fight against the enemy country, which would have lasted at least ten years, not now.

Wang Wan felt that maybe he was overthinking it. Maybe the emperor just asked the second prince to experience it, not that there was going to be a war.

"Let's talk tomorrow. Whether the second prince will go or not depends on the emperor's arrangements."

Shen Yu was tired, so Lu Yao went to wait for him to sleep first.

After Wang Wan finished eating the melon seeds in his hand, he lay on the couch and thought about the past. The more he thought about it, the more wrong he became. In his previous life, there was no such thing as the second prince going to Northern Xinjiang. I wonder if it was because of his rebirth that disrupted time and space. Let her do something radically different.

Late at night, the Prime Minister's Mansion was quiet, with only the sound of insects chirping, but murmuring conversations could be heard in the palace.

"The Queen, my subordinates are incompetent, and Mr. Lu Ming is still not found."

The man in black lowered his head and stood in the queen's bedroom. He searched for several days, but there was still no news from Lu Ming. The queen was already in a irritable mood today and angrily said: "Go down, if you can't find her, don't come back and bother me."

She was originally troubled by the Second Prince's trip to Northern Xinjiang, but now Lu Ming's matter gave her another headache. Everyone seemed to have a grudge against her, which made her worry-free.

"Your Majesty, today I heard that the Emperor left the palace and went to Gongyuan for a private visit in private. This year there are several times more students in Gongyuan than in previous years. Your Majesty must be happy these days. Otherwise, Your Majesty will try again. I beg Your Majesty to keep the second prince. "
