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

Yao Shu nodded silently and did not continue speaking.

"Actually, to be honest, in Mrs. Shen's eyes, I am willing to do anything to consolidate the evidence in the court." When the emperor said this, he suddenly felt a bit vicissitudes of life.

Yao Shu narrowed her eyes slightly and saw that the emperor's eyes were slightly red.

It's cold at high places, and sitting in the position of the emperor means that he has to make many choices.

These choices are likely to change the fate of others around the emperor. When will the so-called emperor be able to control his own destiny?

"I am getting older, and I don't know when I will let go. At that time, I can leave regardless, but I must be responsible for the people of the world and the next emperor."

If others heard the emperor say a few words, they would definitely kneel on the ground in fear.

But the person in front of him was Yao Shu. If Yao Shu had said something against his will just to compliment the emperor like others, the emperor would not have had a long talk with him here today.

"I understand what the emperor means. The eldest son of the Shen family is in the military camp, the second son is good at management, the third son is good at business, the fourth son knows how to establish connections, and the fifth son is about to enter the officialdom." Yao Shu finished speaking, Sighing deeply, "Looking at the capital, it is true that only the Shen family meets the emperor's original expectations."

After saying that, Yao Shu added: "Although I am their mother, I cannot make decisions for them when faced with such a matter. I can only say that I will try my best and do my best." To maintain the royal rule."

Yao Shu finally decided to reach an agreement with the emperor. After all, the emperor had good intentions for them.

After such a long period of time, after various tests by the emperor, the direction of the Shen family was finally decided.

"Mrs. Shen doesn't need to be under so much pressure. Whether your Shen family will be able to do the job next depends on your future development. At present, I am still quite optimistic about your Shen family. If you can live up to my expectations and do your best to develop, , I will definitely ensure that your family has enough food and clothing."

Yao Shu fantasized about many ways in her mind, but she never thought that the emperor's latest way to consolidate power was to directly select a noble family and push it in front of the public to serve as a shield.

In a sense, this is not a bad thing for the Shen family.

The Shen family has always been the target of everyone. Every aristocratic family is worried that one day the power of the Shen family will surpass theirs, so they try to suppress them everywhere.

If the emperor's support was obtained now, the Shen family would be able to develop faster.

Thinking of this, Yao Shu didn't know if the remaining people could agree with her decision.

So when facing inquiries from other members of the Shen family, it was inevitable that I felt a little apologetic.

Under everyone's constant questioning, Yao Shu finally told everything.

After hearing this, everyone present fell into deep thought.

Yao Shu thought they were angry because of this matter, so she quickly explained: "Actually, this is not a good opportunity for our Shen family. After all, we are also being targeted by many aristocratic families. If we can seize this opportunity, maybe It can promote the further development of our Shen family."

Unexpectedly, Shen Fugui was the first to speak, with a touch of excitement on his face: "In this way, we have gained the emperor's respect. Then can we show off our talents without caring about the feelings of other aristocratic families?"

"I'm going to expand the Shen family's restaurant business now and open more shops!" Shen Bei is also eager to give it a try.

Yao Shu was a little surprised, and she couldn't help but ask: "When you heard about this, didn't you feel very panicked or under a lot of pressure?"

"Old lady, do you want to ask if everyone will blame you?" Shen Nanshan must understand Yao Shu and immediately knew what he meant.

Yao Shu nodded sheepishly and said: "After all, this matter was something I made my own decision and agreed to the emperor. Only then did I realize that I should discuss it with you. But the matter was urgent at the time. If I hadn't agreed to the emperor, I was afraid that he was going to attack our Shen family, so I had no choice but to directly agree."

"That's a great promise. We couldn't wait to show off our skills and didn't want to do anything timid anymore."

Everyone in the Shen family couldn't help but burst into joy, which also made Yao Shu breathe a sigh of relief.

The next step is the punishment of the Minister of Rites.

Li Sheng died in prison, presumably with the emperor's acquiescence.

After all, the power of the Minister of Rites is too powerful. If he is shoveled out of the court now, it will definitely cause dissatisfaction and opposition from other ministers.

The Minister of Rites took the opportunity to push everything on Li Sheng, so that the Minister of Rites could escape unscathed.

Shen Qiu was once again promoted to a fourth-rank official because of his meritorious service in rescuing the princess, capturing Li Sheng, and repelling the Huns.

Shen Fugui was promoted and became a fifth-rank official because of everything that happened along the way.

Seeing that the matter was settled, Yao Shu was temporarily relieved, but she immediately thought of the secret guard and inevitably became nervous again.

Yao Shu became a little nervous when she remembered that the Master of the Ministry of Punishment told him that there was a more powerful force behind the Minister of Rites.

She couldn't imagine how she would face Marquis Ningyuan if the person behind the Minister of Rites was really Prince Jing.

In this way, Shen Nanshan will also be in a dilemma.

It happened that at this time, Ning Yuanhou came to the Shen family and offered to meet Prince Jing together.

Yao Shu agreed immediately and began to prepare to meet Prince Jing.

The moment she saw Prince Jing, Yao Shu felt his eyes staring directly at her. This feeling made her very uncomfortable, and she subconsciously turned her head to look.

Prince Jing took the initiative and said: "This trip of yours to the Western Regions is extremely dangerous. I thought that Mrs. Shen would seriously establish a business channel, but I didn't expect that things would be so difficult. Fortunately, everyone in the Shen family is safe, otherwise I would It will definitely be difficult to get through."

Hearing this, Yao Shu quickly waved her hand: "Your Majesty, you don't have to be so polite. The reason why we are safe this time is thanks to the token that Your Majesty gave me."

Shen Nanshan walked over curiously and asked, "What token is it? Why don't I know?"

"I haven't taken it out often. This is the token given to us by Prince Jing. It is said that there are dead soldiers who can help us solve the problem."

When Yao Shu finished saying this, Shen Nanshan's expression changed and he realized something was wrong.
