Nongmen Fu girl group’s daily favorites

Chapter 398 Discussion
As the four of them looked at the increasingly outstanding children, their eyes quickly turned red and tears flowed out like water that had been stored for a long time.

In the past three years, they have not had a good night's sleep. When they wake up in the middle of the night, they always imagine all kinds of bloody scenes in their minds. Later, when the war ended, they were worried that they would not have enough food and clothes. Now they see that they have not only grown taller, but also become more calm and reserved, with outstanding temperament, and their worries are finally put down.

When Shen Jia saw them coming, he and Xiao Yichen and everyone else hurried forward to pay their respects.

Gu and Yao pressed their eyes with handkerchiefs and greeted everyone with bright smiles.

After Xiao Yichen and Shen Zhuoyun talked for a few words, they returned to the palace.

After Ling Yunsu exchanged greetings with Shen Zhuoyun and Gu, he also left the Duke of Huguo's Mansion with the people from Tianji Pavilion.

Now that he is the Duke of Jingguo, it would be unreasonable for him to continue living in the Duke of Huguo's Mansion.

Wen Shihe held Zhou Sizheng's hand and was reluctant to let go, and Zhou Sizheng comforted her gently.

Gu happily held Shen Jia and Wei Xuanxuan's hands, and after asking about their well-being, she personally arranged a yard for Wei Xuanxuan, Li Yue and others.

Shen Jia looked at his family with a smile, his heart filled with joy.

Home is the source of happiness and a harbor for the soul to rest.

Between family members, blood is thicker than water. It is the concern, warmth, and the longing for each other deep in time.

Gu personally arranged for Li Yue and the others, and Shen Jia also returned to his own courtyard. After a simple wash, he went to the gate of the mansion to wait for Xiao Yichen.

After Xiao Yichen returned to the palace, he first paid his respects to the Crown Princess. After a simple wash, he took a carriage to the Duke of Huguo's Mansion to pick up Shen Jia and bring him into the palace.

The emperor was reviewing memorials in the imperial study when Fulu came in to report, "Your Majesty, His Highness and the Princess are back."

The emperor put down his pen as if he had thrown away a hot potato, and said in a joyful voice: "Fulu, sort out the unreviewed memorials and put them in Chen'er's place according to categories."

Fulu whispered, "Your Majesty, His Highness has just returned and must have a lot of things to do..."

The emperor interrupted him, "I am old, and I have been looking forward to Chen'er's return. Of course, I have to hand over the country to him, so that I can put down this burden and enjoy life. After Chen'er and Shen girl get married, I will travel around the beautiful mountains and rivers of Dazhou, and come back after they have children..."

"Wherever the emperor goes, I will go there."

The emperor joked, "Don't worry, I won't forget you, old man." After that, he slowly walked to the door of the imperial study.

Xiao Yichen and Shen Jia entered the palace in a carriage. Shen Jia lifted the curtain and saw from afar the old man with white hair and beard, who was still majestic and domineering, standing at the door of the imperial study.

Before the carriage came to a complete stop, the two men jumped off the carriage and said, "Greetings, Grandpa Emperor! Grandpa Emperor, we are back."

The emperor looked at the perfect couple in front of him, his eyes narrowed into slits with smile.

He stepped forward and patted Xiao Yichen on the shoulder with satisfaction, looking at Shen Jia with a smile: "Chen'er, Shen girl, you are great, I am proud of you."

"Thank you for the compliment, Grandfather Emperor." They said in unison.

The two followed the emperor into the imperial study.

The emperor did not beat around the bush with them: "Chen'er, Shen girl, I have checked with the Imperial Observatory, and the second day of August is a good day. Let's ascend the throne and get married on the same day!"

Xiao Yichen was about to refuse to ascend the throne, but he thought that if he refused, the wedding date would be postponed again, which would not be worth it.

Shen Jia frowned slightly, "Grandpa Emperor, there is only one month left until the second day of August, isn't it too hasty?"

"No, I have announced it to the world, and envoys from other countries are almost here. The Ministry of Rites has been preparing for several years and everything is ready. Even your wedding dress has been made by the Shanggong Bureau. It will be sent to your house tomorrow to try it out to see if it fits you..."

Shen Jia and Xiao Yichen looked at each other. It turned out that the emperor had prepared everything, so how could they dare to object?

The two men stood up and saluted, saying, "We will all listen to Grandpa Emperor." The emperor's old face instantly turned into a chrysanthemum, "Hahaha! Very good!"

Shen Jia and Xiao Yichen shook their heads and laughed.

Xiao Yichen said mysteriously: "Grandpa Emperor, your grandson has something good to show you!" Then he took out a pistol from his backpack.

The emperor picked up the pistol and examined it carefully. "Is this the pistol you mentioned?"

Xiao Yichen smiled and said, "Yes, grandson will demonstrate it to you." After that, he picked up the pistol and carefully explained the principle and usage of the pistol.

The emperor listened carefully, walked outside the imperial study, and aimed at the sparrows flying in the sky.

With a 'bang', the bullet passed through the sparrow's body and fell down.

Shen Jia and Xiao Yichen naturally raised their hands and clapped them together vigorously. Fulu and the other eunuchs and palace maids also followed suit.

"Grandpa Emperor's marksmanship is truly amazing!" Shen Jia praised sincerely.

The emperor raised his eyebrows proudly: "My riding and archery skills have always been top-notch, so my spear skills are naturally not bad either."

"The Emperor is naturally the most powerful." Xiao Yichen was happy to please the Emperor.

The emperor knew that Xiao Yichen and Shen Jia had many things to discuss with him, so he only fired two shots and then stopped.

The three men discussed the matter in the imperial study, including adding a Jinyiwei, holding an invention and innovation competition, and building a National Defense College, a Medical College, an Engineering College, and a Technical College.

The Great Zhou was founded more than 140 years ago. The current capital was built when the country was founded. With the increasing prosperity of the Great Zhou, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the population is increasing. The capital can no longer meet the current population growth rate.

In addition, as they wanted to build several large colleges, the three of them discussed and decided to expand the city.

As for pistol-type firearms, Xiao Yichen specially set up the Shenjiying.

The invention and innovation competition will be held at the end of this year, and the selected talents will directly enter the Ministry of Industry or several major colleges.

It was not until nightfall that Shen Jia and Xiao Yichen left the palace.

The next day, there will be a meeting.

The emperor announced his abdication.

The civil and military officials below were in an uproar.

A new emperor appoints new ministers; this is an eternal truth.

Many ministers wanted to speak out their objection, but when they saw Xiao Yichen looking at them with a fierce look, they swallowed the words back.

In front of the emperor, they still dare to rely on their seniority and risk their lives to advise the emperor to stop abdicating. But this one is here. If you dare to threaten them with death, he will let you understand why the flowers are so red.

Everyone winked at each other. You hope I will object first, I hope you will object first. Finally, Su Hao stepped out and said, "The emperor is in his prime. Isn't it too early to abdicate?"

"I have made up my mind. My dear Lord Su, there is no need to say more." The emperor said to the Minister of Rites, "On the second day of August, the new emperor will ascend the throne and the empress will get married. The Ministry of Rites must speed up preparations..."

The Minister of Rites stepped out and said, "I obey your order!"

The emperor felt mixed emotions when he saw that the ministers below him were not quarreling over trivial matters as usual. He was happy but also sad. He was happy that Chen'er could calm them down, but he was sad that he had been the emperor for decades but did not have the majesty of Chen'er.

The emperor, feeling unbalanced, simply pushed all the things to Xiao Yichen, "Chen'er, the Great Zhou will be handed over to you from now on."

Xiao Yichen hurriedly assured: "Please rest assured, Grandpa Huang, your grandson will not let you down."
