"He is in poor health and cannot keep his composure. If we add fuel to the fire, he will definitely act in advance." Shen Shuyi played with his hair, his eyes cold.

However, doing so would put Xie Jingchi in danger.

Shen Shuyi didn't want him to be exposed to such danger, but she believed that he would not be easily influenced by Xiao Tingshan. He also believed that at any time, it was most important to hold the initiative in his own hands.

"My wife and I are indeed in tune with each other." Xie Jingchi lowered his eyes, and a smile appeared on his rosy lips.

Shen Shuyi smiled and whispered, "I just don't know what His Majesty is planning. If he plans to reveal that you are the Ninth Prince Xiao Jingchi, he must first get His Majesty's approval."

"We have only been back for two days. I will go and test it out in half a month." Xie Jingchi said in a low voice.

Shen Shuyi nodded. They had just returned, so it was not appropriate to reveal too much. Otherwise, Emperor Qianwu would think that everything in the capital was under their control, which would inevitably arouse Emperor Qianwu's suspicion.

Half a month is almost enough for them to understand the situation in the capital.

"The autumn hunt this year has been cancelled. As winter approaches, your father might plan to stay in the temporary palace for a while." Xie Jingchi spoke again.

Shen Shuyi narrowed his eyes: "The palace?"

Emperor Qianwu's health is not as good as before. Although it is unknown how much of this is true and how much is pretense, if he plans to go to the temporary palace, it would be a good opportunity to lure Xiao Tingshan into taking action.

Obviously, this emperor who valued friendship did not have much affection for this son who was not raised by his knees. Especially after Xiao Tingshan's series of actions, Emperor Qianwu must have been quite disgusted with him.

Compared to this, Shen Shuyi suddenly felt that the man resting his head on her legs was not that miserable, at least it was not a disastrous start.

"What are you thinking about?" Xie Jingchi opened his eyes and looked at her.

"I'm thinking that even if I had been alive in my previous life, Xiao Tingshan and I would have little chance of winning against you."

Xie Jingchi raised his eyebrows: "In my previous life, my wife's eyesight was not very good, so he got the upper hand. In this life, wait for death."

Shen Shuyi pinched Xie Jingchi's ear: "Say it again."

Xie Jingchi frowned and put his hand on Shen Shuyi's lower abdomen: "Xiaobao, remember to support your father when you come out."

Shen Shuyi chuckled, released him, and said, "The emperor's will is hard to predict, especially now that His Majesty is suspicious and irritable. We should be cautious."

"kindness."

The next day, Shen Shuyi and Xie Jingchi went to the Shen Mansion together.

My brother is now working with Taifu Wang to temporarily manage the Salt and Iron Bureau. Taifu Wang is the envoy of the Salt and Iron Bureau, and my brother is the deputy envoy. Therefore, many people know that this is a sign that Emperor Qianwu values Shen Shuhan, but he is too young and not up to the task.

But this still means that Shen Shuhan's future is limitless.

Because they had sent the visiting card in advance, when Shen Shuyi and Xie Jingchi arrived, Old Madam Shen, Shen Jingchuan and the second branch of the family all came out to greet them.

"I'm finally back. I've been away for several years." Old Madam Shen has aged a lot, but she is in good spirits.

Shen Jingchuan looked at Shen Shuyi and was quite pleased: "Please come in and sit down."

"Brother Han has an errand and won't be back until the afternoon, but I've already sent him a message." Shen Jingchuan mentioned it proactively.

"Father and grandmother, are you all right?" Shen Shuyi took the initiative to speak.

Without Qin Xuerong's lineage, and with Shen Jingchuan being demoted, Old Madam Shen has become much more polite, as if all the previous estrangement has disappeared.

"Everything is fine, everything is fine. But you and Jingchi have been married for almost four years. Is there any good news?" Old Madam Shen asked with concern.

Shen Shuyi looked at her and could see the concern in her eyes.

It seems that because Xie Jingchi is so popular now, his grandmother is quite worried that she will not be able to gain a foothold in the Xie family without an heir.

But she didn't know that even if a woman existed in the world, if she wanted to gain a foothold, she shouldn't rely on so-called offspring.

But no matter what, she always means well.

After all, in the huge Shen family now, she and her brother are the only legitimate children left.

"I'm already three months pregnant. I lived far away before and was afraid that my grandmother would worry, so I never mentioned it." Shen Shuyi said with a smile.

"Okay, okay! Give them all a reward, give them all a reward!"

Shen Shuyi could see that she was truly happy, no matter how much impurity was mixed in this happiness, but she knew that Old Madam Shen had never had any bad intentions towards her, but she would not be the only one she favored.

"I heard that the marriages of my fourth and fifth sisters have also been decided?" Shen Shuyi took the initiative to strike up a conversation.

"Yes, your fourth sister married a deputy general. She chose the man herself. As long as she doesn't regret it, it's fine." Shen Jingchuan sighed.

Obviously, after hearing this, Shen Shuyi knew that it would not be simple.

But what happened to Shen Meiru had nothing to do with her.

She had no grudge against her, but she also had no feelings for her.

"Where's the fifth sister? And has my cousin gotten married?"

Shen Youran's cheeks flushed. "I listened to my second sister and asked Madam Zhao to arrange a marriage for me. I'll get married next spring."

"As long as the person is someone you like, that's fine." Shen Shuyi said with a smile.

Zhang Jinping also came forward and said, "Oh, Youran, that man is so handsome! I'm so envious of him. Unlike our Youran, who chose Wang Xiao after choosing so many!"

When this was mentioned, Zhang Jinping became very angry.

Even though Wang Xiao was the son of Imperial Tutor Wang, he had been relatively well behaved in the past two years. But who didn't know about the incident that had caused a stir in the city just because of a girl from a brothel?

Their family's You Ran has such a miserable life, how could she have such a man!

But unfortunately, You Ran was willing, and the other party asked Shen Shuhan to help mediate. She was in a dilemma whether to agree or not.

Shen Shuyi comforted her, "Second Aunt, you don't know how to appreciate your blessings. Although Wang Xiao was a dissolute man in his youth, as the saying goes, a prodigal son who returns is worth more than gold. He has done a lot of practical things in recent years and knows how to work hard and make progress. The Wang family mansion is clean and harmonious. Sister Youran will enjoy a good life if she marries there."

Sure enough, after hearing what Shen Shuyi said, Zhang Jinping felt much more at ease.

She hesitated and said, "Is it really that good?"

"Don't worry, Second Aunt. If it doesn't go well, I'll ask my husband to help you beat him." Shen Shuyi smiled.

At this point, Zhang Jinping looked at Xie Jingchi, who was chatting happily with Shen Jingchuan, and couldn't help but say, "Oh my God, how come this Mr. Xie is getting more and more handsome? No wonder he holds such a high position. When he sits there, I don't even dare to talk to him."

Shen Shuyi smiled, feeling that no matter how lonely and frustrated she had been in the Shen Mansion, these people in front of her had at least brought her some warmth.

But fortunately, she now has another home.

A complete home that belongs only to her and Xie Jingchi.

"Is Second Aunt still in charge of the house's affairs now?" Shen Shuyi asked.

Zhang Jinping nodded. "Yes, but as a sister-in-law, it's not my place to interfere too much in Big Brother's affairs. So, although I'm in charge of the household expenses, I usually discuss Big Brother's affairs with Aunt Wu."

Speaking of Shen Qinghuan's mother, Shen Shuyi had a good impression of her. She was a rare smart person. It would be good if she could be promoted to the position of legitimate wife. Then Qinghuan could marry as a legitimate daughter.
