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

"Mrs. Shen will take it directly, no need to be polite." After the princess finished speaking, she solemnly handed the map to Yao Shu.

Yao Shu gently took the map. Although it was a piece of kraft paper, it held great weight in her hand.

"I didn't expect that the prince would know that I would come so early in the morning."

The princess chuckled: "The prince didn't know you would come here today, so he asked me to prepare things early. He thought you might change your mind and come here at any time, so he made preparations in advance."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, and Thank you, Princess. Please rest assured, I will take good care of and protect this map, and it will never be damaged in any way."

Yao Shu's solemn look made the smile on the princess' face become more and more obvious: "You don't have to be so polite. Since you are Ningyuan Hou's confidants, we are all a family. If you need help in the future, you must mention it. Don’t be polite.”

"I don't know whether to talk about something or not. If we are going to the Western Region in a while, I wonder if the prince can help us call in some people." After speaking, Yao Shu quickly added, "The people here are referring to some interesting people. People with experience are not just some..."

Yao Shu wanted to emphasize that she had no rebellious intentions, but the more she talked about it, the more strange she felt.

Fortunately, the princess did not realize the error in her words. She pondered silently for a moment and suddenly nodded: "Of course. Although I don't have a very powerful life, I remember that when the prince went to the Western Regions, there was a person accompanying him. Mute. He is not really mute, but because he rarely speaks, everyone named him mute. This man has traveled extensively and experienced many things. He has significant experience in many things, and may be able to help To you."

"In this case, of course it's good. Please, Princess, can you tell me where that person is at this moment?"

The princess informed Yao Shu of the man's location, and Yao Shu was surprised to find that the village where the man was currently located was the place where they had provided disaster relief a few days ago.

That's what I mean by saying it doesn't take any effort at all.

The Shen family completed this disaster relief mission, which also solved the biggest problem of survival for the villagers. I don’t want to beg them for a favor now, it’s understandable.

Thinking of this, she breathed a sigh of relief.

After going home and telling Shen Nanshan the news in detail, Shen Nanshan could still speak, when he heard footsteps suddenly coming from outside.

Immediately afterwards, Shen Fugui appeared in front of them.

Yao Shu's face was a little nervous. She had not told Shen Fugui that there was a high possibility of going to the Western Regions.

And judging from the previous situation, Shen Fugui was very repulsive to the Western Regions, to the point where he was even unwilling to mention it.

He looked at Yao Shu anxiously: "Mom, did you just say that I might go to the Western Regions?"

"Son, please don't get excited. This is my and your father's guess at the moment. It doesn't matter if you go to the Western Regions. Your father and I will definitely find a way to rescue you. What's more, the emperor has not made it clear that your Don't think too complicated about official positions. What if we happen to stay in the capital and become officials above the court, wouldn't it be honorable to honor our ancestors?" Yao Shu carefully calmed his emotions, worried that he would suddenly go berserk.

Unexpectedly, Shen Fugui shook his head slightly: "That's not what I meant. I was wondering if I could take the initiative to request to go to the Western Regions?"

Shen Nanshan patted the table in surprise: "Why do you have such an idea?"

"Child, are you stimulated by something?" Yao Shu was even more wrong. She didn't know why Shen Fugui suddenly had such an idea.

Fortunately, he reacted immediately in the next second: "Is it possible that you heard the news about the princess?"

Shen Fugui nodded anxiously: "I just heard rumors from the outside that the princess is going to marry the eldest son of the Minister of Rites."

"what?!"

Yao Shu and Shen Fugui said in unison, completely unable to believe what he just said.

After repeated confirmation, it was confirmed that Shen Fugui was not playing a joke on the two of them.

"How is this possible? How can such a big matter be decided so quickly? Does the emperor agree? After all, Princess Chang'an is a beloved princess. If she is married to the son of the Minister of Rites, it will mean the future The power of the Minister of Rites will be even stronger." Yao Shu frowned, she did not believe that the emperor would betroth Princess Chang'an to someone else so casually.

Not to mention that Princess Chang'an is much loved and is the most precious little princess. It is said that the emperor is currently restricting the power of the Minister of Rites and the Prime Minister. If the power of the Minister of Rites is increased, it will inevitably endanger the emperor's rule.

Yao Shu was extremely anxious, so she hurriedly went out to find out the news.

The fastest place to find out information is to go to the restaurant, and the customers in Jiutian Restaurant generally rarely mention the affairs of the imperial court, so if you go to Fanghua Pavilion non-stop.

The boss of Fanghua Pavilion saw her sudden appearance and thought she was looking for the proprietress, so he said kindly: "She is not in the store today. If she is in a hurry, I will ask the waiter to call her over now."

Yao Shu waved her hands quickly: "No, I didn't come here today to find her, I just wanted to find out some information."

If others say a few words, the boss will naturally refuse.

But Yao Shu is one of his own, so he is not secretive.

"In that case, Mrs. Shen will come with me. I wonder what news Mrs. Shen came here to inquire about today?" When they came to the secret box, the boss asked first.

Yao Shu thought for a moment and suddenly took a step forward.

Her eyes revealed a somewhat anxious look, and she didn't care about etiquette at the moment.

Her mind was filled with questions about how to ask the princess, and she couldn't wait any longer.

"I don't know, has the boss heard about the princess getting married recently?"

Upon hearing this, the boss immediately understood what she meant.

It was also rumored before that the princess and Shen Fugui were in love. Although it didn't cause too much trouble at this time, the noble families in the capital had heard about it.

Now hearing Yao Shu's question, the boss spoke softly and consoled him: "You, the Shen family, don't have to be too anxious about this matter. The birth date has not been revealed yet. If your son does not marry the princess, don't be too sad. Explain two There is no fate between people.”

"Is this true?" She frowned and asked again, "Does the boss know how this news came about and who mentioned it?"

The boss thought for a moment: "I really don't know much about this, but thinking about it, it's definitely not groundless."
