Newlyweds divorced: Marry a scumbag and his brother is sweet and have a baby

After a while, the gambling funds were placed.

The gambling money in front of me was as high as one person, and ten people gathered hand in hand to surround it all.

Shen Yan reported, "Your Majesty, all the gambling money is here. A rough estimate is that it ranges from millions of silver taels to tens of millions."

Emperor Xuande's face was livid, thunderous and furious, and he shouted loudly, "At the foot of the imperial city, you are ignoring the king's law and you are simply extremely arrogant!"

Those ministers did not dare to express their anger, for fear that Emperor Xuande would order a thorough investigation of the gambling houses, and many of them would suffer.

"Mr. Shen, where are those people caught in the gambling house now?" Emperor Xuande asked.

"At the Yamen, there are soldiers who went to raid the gambling house to guard the place." Shen Yan replied.

"Everyone will be punished with a hundred sticks. If he commits the crime again, he will be imprisoned for five years!" Emperor Xuande said with a sullen face, "Your Majesty, Mr. Yan, you two should handle this matter. No one can be spared! Shen Yan, you and I Come to the imperial study!"

After Emperor Xuande finished speaking, he stood up and left. When his back disappeared, the courtiers breathed a sigh of relief and left one after another.

"Thank you for your hard work." Shen Yan said to Xie Huaijing and Yan Qing.

Yan Qing hid the admiration in his heart and said seriously, "It's not hard at all if I can do something practical for the people."

"I'll find you when I'm done," Xie Huaijing said.

"Do you have something important? If not, we can meet again tomorrow. You are already very tired." Shen Yan looked distressed.

"I'm never tired seeing you." Xie Huaijing said with a smile on his face.

After Yan Qing heard what the two said, he quickly took a few steps back.

"Then I'll wait for you." After not seeing each other for a few days, Shen Yan missed Xie Huaijing a little.

The two said goodbye, and Shen Yan came to the imperial study room.

"Mr. Shen's brilliant idea! I really admire it!" Emperor Xuande Longyan was delighted.

Emperor Xuande came to Shen Yan before and said that the cold winter was coming and the military pay and food for the winter had not yet been accounted for.

There is some money in the treasury, but not much. We cannot empty out the treasury. Otherwise, if there is any natural disaster, the court will not be able to get out a single copper. How will the people survive?

One of the ways Shen Yan thought of at the time was to raid gambling houses, but he needed a reason.

Even if there is no reason, she will create one.

When she was about to make an excuse, something happened at the medical clinic.

"With these gambling funds, the army's salary and food for this winter have been secured."

Emperor Xuande's expression turned from joy to worry, "I knew there were gambling houses in the capital, but I didn't expect them to be so rampant. The gambling money is almost equal to the banknotes of a national treasury."

"Today I only ransacked the gambling houses and fined the gamblers, but I did not punish the big bookmakers who were really hiding behind them. Mr. Shen, what do you think the next step should be?"

"Just wait and see what happens." Shen Yan replied.

Emperor Xuande asked, "How to watch the changes quietly?"

"Today there was a shocking change in the gambling house. They will restrain themselves a lot in the future, but the things they did in the gambling house in the past still exist."

Shen Yan said softly, "When the emperor decides which sting to pull out in the future, the gambling house incident will be their breakthrough point."

"Okay, Mr. Shen is indeed my wise man. With Mr. Shen here, why worry about our Qin Dynasty not being prosperous?" Emperor Xuande looked domineering, his eyes shining.

"Your Majesty, the blueprints for the crossbows and chariots you previously ordered your servants to modify have been completed. When do you think you will start building them?" Shen Yan asked.

"Mr. Shen's speed is so amazing?" Emperor Xuande did not hide his surprise, "When Leng Yuting comes back, he will watch people doing it, and you will be responsible for quality control, how about it?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Although Leng Yuting is a bit arrogant, I believe he is loyal to me. Unlike those aristocratic families, he does not want to replace me or exclude me." Emperor Xuande and Shen Yan said their inner thoughts.

Shen Yan did not answer Emperor Xuande's words. Leng Yuting was very complicated and difficult to understand.

"Okay, you've been busy all day, go back and have a good rest." Emperor Xuande said.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

When Shen Yan came out of the palace, the night was already very late.

When she returned to her small courtyard, the lights were on and Qiu Yu was waiting for her.

"Miss, you are back." Qiu Yu asked while pouring tea, "This slave has made lean meat porridge, do you want to drink some?"

"If you don't drink now, what ingredients are there in the kitchen?" Shen Yan asked.

"Vegetables, meat, and eggs are all available. What do you want to eat? I will do it."

"You come to help, and I'll do it." Shen Yan drank the tea in one gulp, got up and walked to the kitchen.

"Miss, is the Crown Prince coming?" Qiu Yu asked curiously.

Shen Yan nodded.

"You know, I know, in this world, the only person in the world who can make my eldest lady busy all day long and cook for me personally is the prince." Qiu Yu said with a smile.

"How dare you tease me." Shen Yan pretended to be angry, picked up a radish and handed it to Qiu Yu, "Peel off the skin."

"I don't dare. I'm just happy for the eldest lady and the prince."

The master and servant were chatting and laughing in the kitchen, and soon, three dishes and one soup were placed on the table.

"It smells so good." Xie Huaijing smelled the food as soon as he arrived in the yard.

"I have met the prince." Qiu Yu saluted Xie Huaijing, "These are all made by my eldest daughter for you after she came back from the palace. They are still hot."

After she finished speaking, she stepped back, leaving space for Shen Yan and Xie Huaijing to be alone.

"Ayan, thank you for your hard work." Xie Huaijing came into the room and held Shen Yan's hand, his eyes slightly red, "I should have done these for you."

Apart from his mother, Shen Yan was the second person in the world who was willing to wash his hands and make soup for him, light a lamp and wait for his return.

His heart and eyes were filled with happiness and emotion.

"Emotions go both ways. I can't let you pay for me all the time. What I do for you is nothing compared to what you do for me."

Shen Yan had a slight smile on her face and her voice was as gentle as water.

She gave all her tenderness to Xie Huaijing.

"Eat quickly, it will get cold soon." Shen Yan served Xie Huaijing a bowl of porridge, and added crispy radish and grilled fish.

"Okay." Xie Huaijing took a sip of the porridge and ate a piece of crispy radish. His eyes lit up. "This crispy radish goes well with this porridge."

Shen Yan smiled and asked again, "You said you had something to tell me. What was it?"

"Be mentally prepared, this matter has something to do with you." Xie Huaijing suddenly became serious.
