Dressed as an old woman, I carry the system and my son to escape the famine

"See the Emperor."

This time the Shen family came to see the saint, only Shen Nanshan and his wife, Shen Qiu, Shen Bei, Shen He and Shen Fugui.

As for the others, they were all women and children, so there was no need to risk following them.

When the emperor saw that almost all of the Shen family came to him, he couldn't help but feel a little relieved for a moment.

"You guys should get back on your feet quickly, there's no need to be too polite. You guys are here today, I guess you all know why you're here."

The emperor looked at Shen Nanshan and motioned for Shen Nanshan to speak.

Shen Nanshan's expression was a bit nervous, and he subconsciously looked at Yao Shu beside him.

At this time, the Minister of Rites on the side sneered: "I didn't expect Brother Shen to be so afraid of his wife, and even look at Mrs. Shen when the emperor asked him."

The meaning of this sentence is to show that Yao Shu is more important than the emperor in Shen Nanshan's heart.

Yao Shu couldn't help frowning and looked at the emperor subconsciously.

Her eyes were upright, without any dodge: "The words of the Minister of Rites are serious. The reason why my husband behaves like this is just because he is accustomed to giving me the right to speak. He also relies on me in everything at home, although outsiders There is a sign of henpeck in his eyes, but it also just shows that he is willing to listen to the advice of others and will not insist on going his own way without listening to other people's words."

After hearing this, the emperor nodded with satisfaction and said with approval: "That's right, that's what he meant. Since he doesn't want to speak, then it's up to you to say it."

Yao Shu took a step forward and saluted the emperor respectfully again.

At this moment, she absolutely couldn't make any mistakes. After all, the Minister of Rites is next to him, and he is always ready to seize the Shen family's weaknesses.

Any weakness in front of the emperor will be fatal.

He paused with a calm expression, and then said: "Ever since the youngest son Shen Fugui heard that the emperor was extremely worried about the disaster in the north, he did not think about food and tea, and thought about how to go and help the emperor solve his problems all day long. Now, According to what the Empress said, the Emperor is willing to give the Shen family this opportunity. We, the Shen family, will naturally go above and beyond and will never disappoint the Emperor. However, our Shen family has no experience before, and Sun Fugui does not have any official position now. I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince everyone if only our Shen family is allowed to go."

Hearing this, the emperor also looked thoughtful.

It's not that he hasn't considered this matter, but because he was in a hurry and needed to get the Shen family to agree to go to the disaster relief, he didn't think of a perfect solution.

At this moment, when he heard Yao Shu's words, he felt worried for a moment.

"Since the county leader raised such a problem, does it mean that there is already a solution?" The emperor didn't know how to solve the problem, so he once again left it to the Shen family.

At this time, Yao Shu signaled Shen Qiu to come forward.

After Shen Qiu understood this, he immediately stepped forward and said: "We have discussed it again and again about returning to the Emperor. If the Emperor agrees, I am also willing to lead a team to go to the disaster relief. This is because of my military position. It’s not enough to lead the army, so I hope the emperor can send General Ling to go with the Shen family.”

"Ling Hui?"

The emperor also had some influence on General Ling, but not much.

Although General Ling has a higher military position and has great influence.

But to the emperor, he was not in the capital, so his presence was extremely low.

The emperor also thought for a moment before remembering the existence of this person.

Yao Shu nodded lightly and continued: "General Ling has always been guarding the outside of the pass. In addition to the Huns' invasion some time ago, General Ling also made great contributions. If General Ling helps with this disaster relief, I think It will definitely get twice the result with half the effort.”

Seeing that the Shen family had planned everything perfectly, the emperor didn't say much.

He nodded silently in approval, and then looked at the Minister of Rites and the Prime Minister beside him.

"What do you two dear ladies think?"

The two men nodded slightly without saying any more words.

The Minister of Rites is not worried that the Shen family will take away the credit. After all, in his eyes, the Shen family went to disaster relief this time, and it can be said that they have gone without returning.

If the Shen family is not stopped, even if the Shen family continues to develop, the Shen family will definitely enter the court in the near future. By then, the Prime Minister's power will become stronger and stronger, and he will no longer have any ability to compete with the Prime Minister for power.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Shen family is a dark horse with a bright future.

How could the Minister of Rites allow such a family to continue to develop?

If you can't become your right-hand man, you can only become a lonely ghost.

Thinking of this, his eyes darkened again and again.

The ordinary Prime Minister noticed his thoughts at this moment, silently moved to his side, and warned in a cold voice: "This time the Shen family went to provide disaster relief, it was under the emperor's instructions. Don't do anything you shouldn't do, so as not to get involved. It’s up to you.”

Hearing this, the expression on the face of the Minister of Rites became a little prouder.

"This is a bit serious. I am really happy for the emperor. How can it not be a great joy for the emperor to meet such ambitious, capable and courageous right-hand men like the Shen family? I am here for the emperor. I feel happy, but the Prime Minister wants to warn me. Could it be that he has other thoughts?"

Seeing that the Minister of Rites was about to spew blood, the Prime Minister did not want to talk to him too much.

He snorted coldly, did not speak any more, and turned to look at Yao Shu aside.

"The Shen family may have to go through a lot of hardships when they go to provide disaster relief this time. Thank you for your hard work, and I hope you can return triumphantly."

The prime minister's words were meaningful, and he turned to look at the emperor again.

The emperor naturally understood what he meant, and his expression was a little unnatural.

Seeing that the time was almost up, the emperor let the Shen family go back.

On the way back, the Shen family looked at the proud Minister of Rites and felt that he was too arrogant.

Faced with such a thing, since he was able to stay out of it, he even provoked his family in front of the emperor.

Now that I think about it, the power of the Minister of Rites is indeed powerful, and the Shen family cannot resist it.

If the Shen family does not seize the opportunity of disaster relief in time, maybe the Minister of Rites will come up with more vicious methods to punish them next time.

Thinking of this matter, Yao Shu couldn't help but clenched her fists.

She took a deep breath and hinted in her mind not to be angry, lest she fall into the trap of the Minister of Etiquette.

It's just that sometimes when you want to dodge, the other party doesn't give you a chance.

The Minister of Rites looked at Yao Shu's unblinking gaze and suddenly said, "Mrs. Shen."
