After the vicious adoptive mother gave up, the scumbag children regretted it
Chapter 446: Duke Shen Requests
Shen Nanzhi's pregnancy and childbirth cannot be judged according to common sense. How long it will take her to give birth depends on how long she stays in the space.
I must have stayed in the space for the last few months. After all, my belly is getting bigger, and I can’t hide it if someone sees it. I don’t know what will happen.
But it will only take ten days or half a month at most. As long as you arrange your outside affairs, it will be easy to get away with it.
The clothes of ancient people were loose and did not reveal their body shape, so there was no problem before six months old.
Shen Nanzhi didn't have to worry about it for the time being and lived his life as usual. The most important thing now was the selection of the imperial envoy. Everyone in the court was very angry with the King of Han. He treated everyone as fools and deceived them. He had cheated away a lot of rewards over the years.
Even when the late emperor was alive, he would always give cheap gifts to fool people on their birthdays, saying that the gift was small but the sentiment was great. He was almost sending a goose feather.
But the more this happened, the more the court officials dared not to provoke this insidious and cunning old fox. Who could be confident that they could defeat this old fox?
Shen Nanzhi sat in Qi Yunxu's seat, with a pearl curtain in front of her. She could see outside, but outsiders could not see her, which seemed like she was ruling from behind the curtain.
Because of pregnancy, I was sleepy and leaned lazily on the soft cushion. An Xin and An Ning were there to serve me on both sides.
Ever since she knew that the little emperor might have bad intentions, An Xin had been observing the little emperor more closely. After observing him more closely, An Xin really saw quite a few problems.
Don't underestimate a professionally trained killer. An Xin and An Ning have been able to survive in the Ruyimen training base for so long. They are both top-notch people. They just didn't want to be a killing tool, so they had to run away.
The key is that they succeeded, met Shen Nanzhi, and changed their destiny.
After An Xin's observation, she found that the little emperor seemed to be picking his fingers out of boredom, but his mind was on the court. He responded to what the court officials said and was not really in a daze.
It's really chilling that he has such thoughts at such a young age.
The little emperor seemed to notice something and looked back at An Xin. An Xin nodded and smiled without changing her expression. She also bowed and pointed at the snacks on the table, asking the little emperor if he wanted to have one.
The little emperor also felt that he was overthinking. Who would be on guard against a child of eight or nine years old?
She secretly asked for one, put it in her mouth and ate it happily, like a mouse that had stolen something to eat. She was also happy and relieved. However, she was more alert in her heart. The little emperor's acting skills almost fooled them all.
"Is there no one to help the emperor? Then I will appoint someone. Don't worry, as long as we find out the current situation in Fuzhou, you won't need to deal with the old King of Han. Your bodies are not enough for him.
If successful, it would be a great achievement, and it wouldn't be a problem to be awarded a title of nobility or a chancellor. Don't you want to try it out with a small investment?"
The court officials laughed dryly. It sounded tempting, but it was better to be alive. No one would not cherish his life.
"I want to go, please give the order, Princess."
Who? Did anyone really volunteer?
It’s Duke Shen. Shen Nanzhi is in mixed feelings. Why is he interfering?
After getting rid of Prince Shanye's family, Princess Anguo also fell ill. After a while of silence, he actually dared to take such a dangerous task. Didn't he want to kill Princess Anguo?
"Duke Shen, have you thought it through?"
"I have thought about it again and again, and I have made up my mind."
"Why don't you go home and discuss it with the princess?"
"No, I would like to ask the princess to grant me a fiefdom, preferably one closer to Fuzhou. I will take my wife and children to the fiefdom to guard the King of Han for the princess."
"This……"
The court officials were completely shocked. Duke Shen was going to fight to the death with King Han!
Duke Shen had a calm face, and he had the fortitude and indomitable determination of a military general. He had been thinking about this matter for the past two days. He was now hated by Shen Nanzhi, who refused to acknowledge him as her biological father. And that poor girl back then, in the final analysis, was all harmed by the old King of Han.
After all, he is his nominal father-in-law. How can he accept that he has not been "filial" to his father-in-law for so many years?
Shen Nanzhi was silent for a while. Duke Shen's actions might be meant for revenge, but it could also make up for himself and fulfill his responsibilities as a father.
"What do you think, my Lords?"
Prime Minister Dou supported: "I think this is feasible."
Mr. Yuan said, "The closest place to Fuzhou is Ganzhou, which is mountainous and has a hot and humid climate, similar to Lingnan. Does Lord Shen really want to take his family there?"
"If the people over there can survive, I can survive too. I have been to the most dangerous places. Someone has to do these things. I have made up my mind. Thank you Mr. Yuan for your concern."
"Alright, I'm just reminding you, Princess, this is doable."
Shen Nanzhi said: "Well, this princess will fulfill your wish. Considering that Duke Shen is devoted to the country, the Duke's Mansion in the capital will be reserved for you, and the fiefdom is also under the name of the Duke's Mansion, and has nothing to do with the princess.
Princess Anguo should not have a fiefdom in the first place, and there is no reason to grant her a fiefdom for no reason.
Even if it is the fief of Ganzhou, it will only be in the name of the Duke's Mansion after you, Duke Shen, return triumphantly."
This is because he doesn't want to give Princess Anguo an advantage. The fief is under her name, and Duke Shen regards her as his priority. It is unreasonable to quarrel like this. Shen Nanzhi spares no effort to disgust Princess Anguo.
The ministers would not object. You would be given a fiefdom only if you get rid of the King of Han, which was equivalent to a verbal reward. Not to mention that Ganzhou was a poor and remote place, and not much tax could be collected in a year.
The matter was settled, but Shen Nanzhi still gave Duke Shen 10,000 soldiers and horses. This is intriguing. Do they have to fight as a last resort?
After the court session, Shen Nanzhi summoned Duke Shen alone. This was the first time they met and talked. Duke Shen felt a little guilty and nervous, and was embarrassed to look at Shen Nanzhi's face.
"Duke Shen, please sit down. I still want to thank you for taking the initiative to share the worries of the court. I asked you to come here to analyze the situation in Fuzhou with you..."
Letting him go is not a reckless act, as he would rush in headfirst to seek death. Shen Nanzhi gave him enough time to prepare, especially for medicines. Fuzhou will belong to the South in the future, and soldiers from the North who go there can be killed by malaria.
Duke Shen nodded repeatedly: "I have taken note of what the princess said. I will be careful."
"Well, you also know that the prince of Han died in the Regent's Palace. Regardless of whether he really died or not, the King of Han will definitely use his death to make things worse.
You don't have to worry about these, just prepare the people and things, take a look and leave, don't let anyone know. "
"How can this be possible? Is the old man coming for you? I must kill him."
Shen Nanzhi waved his hand: "If Duke Shen wants to talk like this, we have nothing to say. What I want is to take Fuzhou by wisdom and occupy the precious land that King Han has carefully governed, not to let you start a war."
