After the vicious adoptive mother gave up, the scumbag children regretted it
Chapter 452: Divorce of Duke Shen
Shen Nanzhi spoke with passion, which made it impossible for the ministers to refute him, but the real solution still depended on strength.
The silver in the national treasury was spent like water. When the war really broke out, people realized that silver was not easy to spend. The Ruyi Gate's treasure house collected tens of millions of taels of silver, and half of it was spent in just a few months.
This is the result of Shen Nanzhi's space supporting countless food and medicinal materials.
After a moment of silence, Prime Minister Dou asked, "So what do you think, Princess? How should we deal with the matter of the King of Han's cavalry now?"
Shen Nanzhi had a plan in mind. He said, "Don't deal with it. If he wants to fight, let him fight. Let him come directly to the capital. All the prefectures and counties along the way will not put up any resistance. Let the Prince of Han fight all the way."
"What? This... What if they attack us in the capital?"
"If they attack, they will kill me first, not you. No matter who is the emperor, he will use his subjects to do things. What are you afraid of?"
These words left the ministers speechless.
Ning Ge Lao sneered: "Princess, you are so naive. From Fuzhou to the capital, it is more than 2,000 miles along the way. Countless people have to suffer the disaster of war. This is the incompetence of the court. Who can afford to lose face like this?"
Shen Nanzhi analyzed: "King Han's rebellion is different from the Great Jin. This is an internal struggle. As I said before, no matter who is the emperor, he must treat the people well and ask the people to farm and pay taxes. His enemy is not the people, but the royal family.
The King of Han would not even kill the people. Instead, he would win the hearts of the people and help them through the difficult times to demonstrate his generosity. He would not let go of such a good opportunity.
If he harms the people, who will support him to clean up the court?"
Prime Minister Dou nodded: "What the princess said makes sense, but I'm afraid that the King of Han will not be reasonable. This is a gamble on his conscience."
"The last thing he has is a conscience. We can wait and see. We also need to prepare our troops. We can't just let them kill us when they come to our doorstep. We still have to protect ourselves."
The ministers nodded. The princess meant to make preparations for both situations. It was worth a try.
Shen Nanzhi had no choice. Fuzhou was more than 2,000 miles away from the capital. Even if you sent troops now, it would take two months to reach Fuzhou. The land that should be occupied had already been occupied by others, so it would be a waste of time if you went there.
It is better to sit back and wait than to run around all day. Shen Nanzhi guessed the King of Han's thoughts, and most of them adopted conciliatory policies. After all, what he wanted was the world, fame, and face.
What hypocritical people care about most is face.
This was also an opportunity to see how many local officials had defected to King Han and to take the chance to carry out a major cleanup of the officialdom.
Shen Nanzhi doesn't understand politics, but she knows management. She manages the world as a big group, and she is the chairman. Now the directors below want to seize power and ask her to give up her position and become the chairman themselves. Then we will see who is more capable.
The general tone has been set and the morning court has ended. Shen Nanzhi has many things to arrange, so he returned to the Regent's Palace early and called a meeting with the subordinates of the Imperial City Bureau. The court officials will do the overt arrangements, and the secret investigation of information cannot be relaxed either, as this is what the Imperial City Bureau is good at.
Orders were issued one after another, and the Imperial City Bureau began to move. Shen Nanzhi worked until late at night before going to rest.
In this tense atmosphere, the marriage between Duke Shen and the Zhang family became more urgent. They both wanted to complete the marriage as soon as possible to avoid a fight and other unexpected events.
Shen Nanzhi also gave Shen Kening a set of pearl headwear as a reward for the gift she had given her when she first came to make up.
Princess Anguo accepted it and rarely showed any anger, which made Shen Kening feel relieved. Her mother was feeling much better recently and hadn't quarreled with her father for a long time.
Duke Shen was busy reorganizing the military camp and inspecting the troops. He often did not go home for several days, so even if they wanted to quarrel, they could not.
Shen Ke Ning got married very soon, but it was not luxurious, but rather low-key. In today's atmosphere, anyone who is high-profile will be the first to get married and seek death.
Zhang Youqing's family didn't have much money. They only had a small house passed down from their ancestors, which was much more shabby than the princess's mansion.
Fortunately, there is no difficult mother-in-law, nor any conflicts with sisters-in-law, brothers-in-law, and sisters-in-law. Zhang Youqing is the only one left in his family, so if one person is well fed, the whole family will not be hungry.
Shen Ke Ning did not despise it. After all, it was her own home and she could be the head of the family as soon as she got married. Her dowry was big enough, and if the couple had three or five children, it would be enough to last for several lifetimes.
On the third day after the wedding, Princess Anguo came to see Shen Nanzhi, which surprised Shen Nanzhi. Was there anything else they could talk about?
Shen Nanzhi met her in the study. She really didn't have time, as there was a table full of documents waiting for her to deal with. Now there was no Awen to help her, so she found a few new clerks to help, but none of them did a good job as well as Awen. Shen Nanzhi had to teach them slowly, and she had to handle everything herself.
"Princess, please tell me what you want to say. You've seen it, and I don't have time to argue with you."
Shen Nanzhi didn't even raise his head, waiting for her to speak first. If she wanted to make a scene, he would just throw her out. An Xin and An Ning were already waiting eagerly.
Princess Anguo just looked around the study and smiled: "I didn't expect you to be able to stick with it. Being a regent is not an easy job."
"Well, thank you for the compliment."
Princess Anguo sighed and said, "I came here today to tell you that I want to divorce Duke Shen. Ning'er is already married, and the two children will follow their father in the future. I have nothing to worry about anymore."
This surprised Shen Nanzhi. She looked up at her and asked, "Are you going to become a monk?"
Princess Anguo: "..."
I kept comforting myself in my heart, telling myself not to be angry, but I was still irritated by her. "You really don't want anything good for me. You're just waiting for me to become a nun so that I won't be a bother to you anymore, right?"
"Yes, you should have known this long ago. I have always been ruthless towards my enemies. You should be thankful that you can still stand here and talk to me."
Princess Anguo didn't want to argue with her and continued to talk about her plans: "I won't become a nun. I have my own princess's mansion. I will live on my own in the future. You can also recognize your father. Shen Yanxiu doesn't have to be embarrassed. Congratulations."
Shen Nanzhi shook his head: "It doesn't matter whether we recognize each other or not. I don't need you to arrange it for me. Your divorce is between you and Lord Shen. I never interfere in other people's emotional affairs.
If there is nothing else, you can leave."
Princess Anguo was in a complicated mood, not knowing whether this result was good or bad. "Then I won't bother you anymore. Goodbye."
"Let's go slowly without seeing you off."
When Princess Anguo left, she turned around and looked at her, but finally didn't say anything and walked away. At this moment, she really let it go and realized her mistake. She shouldn't have concealed it and killed a baby.
Duke Shen was busy with official duties and was unexpectedly calm when he received a letter of divorce. An Guo had made up his mind completely this time.
He signed and sealed the contract, but left the two children behind, asking them to stay with their mother, as he was now busy fighting and could not take good care of the children.
However, all the salary from Duke Shen's mansion was given to An Guo as child support. Duke Shen was a very responsible father.
Their divorce did not cause any trouble. Princess Anguo lived her days at home, seldom showing up in public, and gradually faded out of people's sight, becoming so low-key that it seemed as if she did not exist.
