Rebirth of a Concubine's Daughter

It turned out that Xiao Yichen took advantage of the miasma in the forest and poisoned them, which prevented Yue Hanzhou's men from moving forward.

After Yue Hanzhou returned to Beijing, he went to the palace to meet the emperor without even having time to go back home for treatment. As a result, the emperor was furious and scolded Yue Hanzhou in front of all the officials in the hall. This was the first time that the emperor had sent someone out of Beijing since he ascended the throne, and such a thing happened. Not to mention that the people of Danzhou were waiting for relief from the court, even the civil and military officials in the court were looking at him, but Yue Hanzhou just put his face under his feet and rubbed it.

"Your Yue family led the troops to the battle and didn't even make it halfway back. Now the people of Danzhou are waiting for you to save them, and you brought them all back. What will the people think of me? What will the world say about me? Yue Hanzhou, I...get out...get out right now."

Yue Hanzhou knelt in the center of the hall with his whole body prostrated on the ground, but the most uncomfortable thing was not these, but that he urgently needed to go to the toilet. Xiao Yichen liked to play these tricks, not letting people die, but making their lives worse than death.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. Yue Hanzhou has already returned. We must send more people to Danzhou as soon as possible. Human lives are at stake and we cannot afford to delay!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, what Lord Lu said is absolutely right. If no one goes to provide disaster relief, the people will be in panic and the victims will become restless, which will be detrimental to Your Majesty's reputation!"

The ministers spoke out to comfort Yue Hanzhou, which made him seem even more useless. Yue Hanzhou was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. As long as the emperor did not leave the court, he would have to kneel here all the time. However, his body had reached its limit and he could not delay any longer.

"Your Majesty, I would like to withdraw first. My health is..."

"You useless thing, you've already retreated halfway back to the capital. Where else do you want to retreat to? My face is..."

The emperor's furious voice came to an abrupt end, and the entire hall fell silent. The air was filled with a foul smell that was pungent to the eyes. When everyone reacted, they all turned their eyes to Yue Hanzhou, and quickly spread out in all directions with Yue Hanzhou as the center. In the center of the huge hall, there was only Yue Hanzhou, kneeling on the ground with his butt sticking up.

"Escort me!"

"Protect..."

The emperor opened his mouth to speak, but immediately closed it, covered his mouth and nose with his hands, stood up and ran towards the back hall.

In an instant, all the civil and military officials in the hall ran out as if they had seen a ghost. The imperial guards came in, but did not dare to step forward. They could only look at Yue Hanzhou with their swords raised. There was already mud under Yue Hanzhou's legs. Yue Hanzhou wanted to die and knelt on the ground without moving.

All the ministers were standing outside the palace and whispering to each other. The emperor was furious in the back hall and immediately dismissed General Yue Hanzhou from his post and demoted him to the sixth rank city gate officer. The emperor's edict was sent to Yue's house together with a large barrel. No one dared to open the barrel. After entering Yue's house, the palace servants hurriedly left, and Mrs. Yue ordered people to open the barrel. As a result, she fainted instantly after just one look.

In just half an hour, news of Yue Hanzhou spread throughout the streets and alleys. Xiao Yichen was naturally involved in this. After Lu Jiusi knew about it, he looked at Xiao Yichen with sharp eyes. He really couldn't think of any other surprising tricks Xiao Yichen had. Only he could think of such a trick.

The Shen family naturally heard about it. Shen Zongyuan was a little dazed for a moment, and felt a little worried about Shen Rongying. He just felt ashamed, so everyone in the mansion deliberately avoided mentioning this matter. However, Shen Yunzhi went out in the evening and went straight to the palace.

When the old lady learned about it, her face was filled with worry again. Needless to say, Aunt Su. Shen Nanyue naturally felt that it was inappropriate. Besides, her coming-of-age ceremony would be in a few days. Shen Yunzhi must have entered the palace to provide disaster relief. If the emperor assigned him to Danzhou, she would have missed her coming-of-age ceremony. However, Mrs. Lu was very happy. She knew that this was a great opportunity. The disaster relief from the court had not arrived yet. Whoever went to Danzhou now would become the target of public criticism. Then they would take advantage of the chaos to attack Shen Yunzhi. Who would know that it was her who did it?

Before the palace gates were locked at night, Shen Yunzhi left, and an imperial edict was taken with him.

The emperor issued an edict, appointing Shen Yunzhi as General Pingyi, and ordered him to lead his troops out of the city and head to Danzhou on the next morning.

Everyone's hanging hearts finally died!

The earthquake in Danzhou has been going on for several days. Now is undoubtedly the time when the corpses have begun to rot, and there will definitely be an epidemic. It goes without saying how dangerous it is. The old lady turned around and grabbed Shen Yunzhi, her eyes red. Aunt Su's tears had already fallen, and she raised her hand to slap Shen Yunzhi hard, and she was so angry that she couldn't say a word.

"Grandmother, Auntie, please stop...why are you crying? It's okay, I'm strong and healthy, and there are many doctors going with me."

Aunt Su hugged Shen Yunzhi's arm.

"Why didn't you consult with us before volunteering? I won't allow you to go."

"Auntie, I didn't realize how precious human life is before. Ever since I went to the battlefield, I've developed a sense of awe. Now that I know so many people in Danzhou are suffering, how could I remain indifferent? Besides, I'm not the only one going. Although there are many people in the court right now, most of those who can go to provide disaster relief are people with ulterior motives. Besides, this is an opportunity. Isn't this a chance for me to get promoted?"

"I don't want you to get promoted or become rich, I don't want you to become famous. You just need to live a stable life. Let's not go, okay?"

"Auntie, the Emperor's decree has been issued. Saying you won't go now is disobeying the Emperor's decree, and disobeying the Emperor's decree is a serious crime."

"Let him go!"

Shen Zongyuan, who had been silent all this time, spoke firmly.

"master."

"When the people are in trouble, as officers and soldiers, how can we ignore them? I just want to say, if there is danger, remember to protect yourself first."

Aunt Su and the old lady burst into tears instantly.

They understood the truth, but they couldn't remain indifferent. On the contrary, the mother and son of the Lu family couldn't suppress their smiles.

"Madam, sir, the Regent has arrived."

The housekeeper interrupted the hesitation in the room, and Shen Zongyuan immediately led everyone out of the door. Before they took two steps, they met Lu Jiusi walking towards them.

"This old minister pays homage to His Majesty. / Shen and her family pay their respects to His Majesty."

"Everyone is free of charge."

"Your Majesty, please."

The family respectfully welcomed Lu Jiusi into the house and sat him down. Lu Jiusi glanced at Shen Nanyan casually. Even though Shen Nanyan didn't say a word, Lu Jiusi knew clearly what she was thinking.

"It's late at night. I wonder why the prince has come here?"

"I'm just passing by. Come in and tell Old Madam Shen that the King will go to Danzhou with General Shen tomorrow."

"what!"

Everyone was surprised!

Shen Nanyan instantly raised her eyes and looked at Lu Jiusi. The moment their eyes met, Lu Jiusi knew that she had guessed right, because she saw a hint of joy in Shen Nanyan's eyes.
