Traveling through the worlds, my husband comes here to smell the scent

Chapter 49 His Highness is Pretending to Be Serious Again (3)

"Brother... I didn't..." Shen Youan shouted helplessly. He just wanted to give them a shot of prevention.

"That's good." Shen Youxuan touched his head. His younger brother was only seventeen years old.

Seeing that the two brothers had such a good relationship, Lin Yuan smiled with relief. In the past, she always worried that if they spoiled An'er a little more, would Xuan'er miss it too much.

But Xuan Er liked his new brother more than them. Every day after finishing his homework and practicing martial arts, he would come to talk to his younger brother.

"Okay, Lingxiang, go check if the food in the kitchen is ready and ready to be served," Lin Yuan instructed the maid waiting by the door.

"Yes, ma'am," Lingxiang responded, bowed and went down

When the dishes were served, Shen Yi had just finished changing his clothes and came over. Looking at his grown-up son, he was much darker than before. It was conceivable how hard Jing's life must have been.

"Dad" Shen Youxuan looked at the person who came and shouted. He hadn't seen him for a few years. Although he didn't say it, he still missed him in his heart.

On the battlefield, he fought desperately, not only because of the people behind him, but also because of the three people in the Prime Minister's Mansion whom he cared about. He promised them that he would return home safely.

"Okay, okay, Xuan'er, it's good to be home." Shen Yi stepped forward, shook his son's hand, his eyes gradually moistened, and hugged the child in front of him. His Xuan'er was home safely, and he didn't have to worry about him day and night, wondering if he was hurt.

After two seconds, he let go

The two father and son smiled at each other, silently hiding the tears in their eyes. After all, men don't shed tears easily.

"Let's eat. Now that our family is reunited, we should be happy." Shen Yi looked at his wife, children and youngest son, then at Shen Youxuan. He felt satisfied and greeted them happily, driving away the sad atmosphere.

So the two of them sat down, and the dishes were prepared under Suzhi's supervision in the kitchen.

"Brother, I wonder if your taste has changed in the past three years. I remember this is your favorite chestnut chicken." Shen Youan picked up a piece and put it in his bowl.

"Nothing has changed. An'er picked it up, and Big Brother likes it." Shen Youxuan chuckled.

Shen Yi didn't care what the two were doing, but picked up some food for his wife. Originally, these things were done by Su Zhi, but he said he wanted to do it himself.

Su Zhi was also happy to see that the two had a good relationship, so she stood aside and watched with a smile.

After a meal

The servant outside came in anxiously and reported, "Greetings to the master and the lady. The palace's chief eunuch is here."

"I see." Shen Yi pondered for a moment, wondering if it was a reward for Xuan'er, and then they walked out.

The eunuch chief smiled and said, "It's good news, please accept the order."

Shen Yi and the others slowly knelt down

Shen Youan, who was standing by, knew that this was not a good thing for the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"By the providence of Heaven, the Emperor proclaims: General Shen Youxuan, the son of the Prime Minister, has rendered meritorious service in defending the nation and is a skilled warrior. I highly value him and hereby appoint him as the Grand General of the Nation, commanding all the armies. I decree this."

The eunuch in charge smiled and said, "General, please accept my order."

"Your humble servant obeys the order, long live the emperor" Shen Youxuan received the order, but his heart was not moved. To him, it was just an empty post.

When everyone was about to stand up

"No hurry, there is one more, the Prime Minister's son Shen Youan is waiting for the order." The eunuch chief waved his hand, indicating that it was not over yet.

Except for Shen Youan, the other two were very confused. Their children did not take the exam for official positions, did not make trouble, and were very obedient. They thought that the emperor had never seen them, so where did the imperial edict come from to give their children An'er?

"By the providence of Heaven, the Emperor proclaims: The Prime Minister's son, Shen Youan, is of outstanding appearance, both virtuous and talented. The Prime Minister has raised his son with such skill that I am even more pleased. I hereby appoint him Crown Princess. Their marriage will take place on the sixth day of next month. I decree this."

"I accept the imperial edict and thank you for your grace." Shen Youan took the imperial edict and looked at the few people who were still stunned.

"You can get up now, Dad, Mom, and Big Brother." Shen Youan knew that their thoughts were surging in their hearts.

"Congratulations, my Lord, double happiness has come. I will take my leave now." The eunuch chief steward completed his task and did not stay any longer.

"Suzhi, see the eunuch off." Lin Yuan was the first to react. She stood up and helped her master up, then told Suzhi:

"Yes, ma'am," Su Zhi responded.

"Thank you for your hard work, father-in-law." Su Zhi took out a purse and handed it to him, while leading the people out.

"It's not hard. I work for the emperor, so it's my duty. It's also my blessing to be able to come to the prime minister's residence." The eunuch general Fu Chang took the large purse with a smile on his face, and said politely.

In the courtyard here, Shen Youxuan still couldn't recover.

"An'er..." Shen Youxuan hugged his brother tightly, his eyes red.

"Brother, it's okay." Shen Youan patted his back. He knew that Shen Youxuan was blaming himself.

"It's all my fault. I've ruined you. The royal family is a place where people are eaten without leaving any bones. Even if the prince hasn't married a concubine now, he will have many beauties in the future. You are so simple, how can they tolerate you?" Shen Youxuan said slowly, thinking that he was too outstanding, which led his brother into this dragon's den and tiger's lair.

Mingming An'er can be the wife of only one person, or if that doesn't work, she can marry a son-in-law and live happily ever after.

"Don't blame your elder brother. He has been protecting our country and is loved by the people. He is the pride of the Chu State. An'er is proud of him." Shen Youan patted the man's back and coaxed him.

Shen Youxuan didn't say anything after hearing what he said.

"Master, what should I do? An'er is so young, I want him to stay with me for a few more years." Lin Yuan snuggled in her master's arms and became sad.

"Madam, don't be sad. Now that it's a foregone conclusion, we can only hope that the prince will treat our An'er well. There is still a month before the wedding, Madam, please prepare well."

Shen Yi sighed. In fact, he knew that the royal family was wary of their Shen family. After all, he was popular in the officialdom and was in the first place, and his eldest son had made great military achievements. Alas, he did not expect that they would be tied up in this way.

After Shen Youan coaxed his elder brother, he went to coax Lin Yuan, whose eyes were red.

"My An'er is so young"

Lin Yuan hugged Shen Youan and looked up at her child's beautiful face. She felt more pain in her heart. This child had been raised in the palm of her hand since childhood. Now, in a month, she would be married. How could she not be sad?

"Mom, I've grown up and I'm not little anymore," Shen Youan said helplessly. In this era, seventeen years old is not young anymore.

My eldest brother has not yet married. If it were not for his outstanding military achievements, he would be laughed at.

"An'er... I heard that the prince has a violent temper, so be careful," Lin Yuan said distressedly. She hoped that her own An'er would not get married, rather than comforting them.

"Okay, there's still a month left, I'll stay with my mother." Shen Youan patted his mother's back.

"Yuan'er has me, you go and accompany your elder brother," Shen Yi said pretending to be jealous. He also knew in his heart that the more people felt sorry for An'er, the more Xuan'er would blame himself and feel sad.
