After rebirth, I remarried the domineering 9000-year-old

What I was thinking was: Are you worthy enough to compete with him?

The anger in Xie Tingyu's eyes weakened a bit, but he was still confused: "Then what did you just do...?"

Shen Nanxing lowered her head embarrassedly: "I, I... am shy..."

A blush appeared on the woman's fair cheeks, and she held his arms with both hands and shook them from time to time.

Xie Tingyu's anger instantly disappeared. He raised his eyebrows, a playful glint in his eyes: "Are you shy already?"

By the time of their wedding night tonight, she didn't know how embarrassed she would be...

But he didn't tell her the truth. He would give her a surprise tonight. I'm sure she would be so moved that she would cry!

He reached out and lovingly scratched the tip of the woman's nose: "You, let's go!"

Shen Nanxing nodded obediently and let the man pull her away. In her heart, she was thinking, I have to take at least three baths tonight...

Xiaotao and Chunxing were not allowed to enter the palace and could only wait outside the palace gate.

At this time, standing outside the door and watching the interaction between the prince and princess from afar, Xiao Tao's face turned red with excitement.

She pulled Chun Xing's arm and said, "Chun Xing, look, the prince is holding the princess' hand! The princess is even shy, haha!"

Royal study room.

The emperor sat behind his desk, reviewing memorials, but he did not put down his pen.

Before the table stood a man in black clothes with dark patterns. Since the emperor didn't speak, he also didn't speak, but just stood there silently.

The two were silent for a long time.

The emperor was defeated. He put down his pen and rubbed his brow. "Minister Fu, what are you doing?"

"You said that Prince Jing stayed elsewhere on his wedding day, which was inextricably linked to that woman. He deserves thirty lashes as a warning to others. Shi Lei, the Minister of War, is a man of integrity. Since this matter concerns the prince, he is the most appropriate person to carry out the execution."

"I listened to you and beat him. As you said, let Shi Lei carry out the punishment."

"You also said that Shen Nanxing disguised herself as a man and fought for the Northern Yue Kingdom for many years, making great contributions. Now that she has returned to female attire, since her general title has been revoked, she should be compensated in other ways. Shen Nanxing's mother should be made a first-rank imperial consort."

"I listen to you and seal it."

"You've asked to go to Liangzhou to alleviate the flood today. What are you planning to do?"

"You are in charge of the huge East Factory. The stable operation of the entire capital and even the entire North Vietnam depends on you! You said that if you go to Liangzhou, who can I rely on?"

"Besides, I've already handed over the Liangzhou flood issue to Prince Jing, and he's been preparing for it for a long time. Now not letting him go... How can this be justified?"

Fu Jiuli listened quietly, and after a while she uttered, "Prince Jing is incompetent."

"As far as I know, Prince Jing and his staff have been discussing this for many days, and the solution they came up with is to repair river dikes, block the water, and build more reservoirs to store water."

"Not only would this method be extremely labor-intensive and resource-intensive, but North Vietnam already has numerous rivers and lakes, so we don't need to store large amounts of river water."

“There are indeed drought-stricken areas, but they are extremely far away from Liangzhou. Transporting water there would be extremely expensive.”

"I think this method doesn't work."

The emperor pondered for a moment, frowning, "Then, according to your opinion, what method should be used?"

Fu Jiuli bowed and said, "I need to go to Liangzhou and see it in person before I can make a final conclusion."

"Can't you send someone else?"

"No."

......

Xie Tingyu held Shen Nanxing's hand all the way to Xiyue Palace.

There was no one else at the door except a few maids and servants who were cleaning.

None of the maids who served Concubine Duan were seen.

Shen Nanxing glanced at Xie Tingyu and said tentatively, "My mother must be busy with something right now. Your Highness, please go see His Majesty first! I'll wait here for a while. My mother will see me when she's done..."

Xie Tingyu twitched his lips. His father was now obsessed with government affairs and often stayed in the wing room east of the imperial study when he was busy late. He rarely came to his mother's place once a month.

What could possibly be wrong with his mother? Sending away the maids at this moment was clearly intended to provoke his princess...

If Nanxing waited here, who knows how many hours she would have to wait? It was just past afternoon, and the weather was still very hot. Nanxing's delicate body, if exposed to the scorching sun for a few hours, I'm afraid her fair cheeks would be sunburned.
