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

Shen Nanshan thought for a long time, but finally said nothing.

He reluctantly put down what he was holding and stared at Yao Shu behind him.

Even without saying a word, Yao Shu knew what he wanted to express.

The eyes full of concern and worry cannot be faked, and the silent silence and sigh are more like blaming Yao Shu for having to bear everything on her own.

Yao Shu softened her heart and said in a low voice: "I know it well, please believe me. I will never bring trouble to the Shen family, whether now or in the future."

She stretched out her hand and gently pulled Shen Nanshan.

Shen Nanshan hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help but said: "That's not what I meant, I am just worried about your safety. I always feel that it is very important for you to hide things from me. We have experienced so many things together, no matter how hard you think about it, You shouldn’t hide it from me. I know you’re more capable than me, but it’s very difficult to do many things by yourself, isn’t it?”

Yao Shu was silent, and her heart began to tangle.

If it is really like Shen Nanshan said, I will tell him everything. If Prince Jing really wants to pursue the case in the future, he will definitely not be able to save the Shen family from danger.

She thought for a long time and finally sighed: "In that case, I will tell you everything..."

As soon as he finished speaking, two guards suddenly walked in from outside.

They looked around with serious expressions, and their eyes fell on Yao Shu and Shen Nanshan on the second floor.

"Your Majesty, please ask Mrs. Shen to come."

Yao Shu's heart skipped a beat, finding herself at this juncture was definitely not a good idea.

Thinking of this, she subconsciously took a step forward to prevent Shen Nanshan from being implicated.

"Since the prince has invited you, I will go over now."

"Wait." Shen Nanshan took Yao Shu's hand and whispered, "I'll go with you now."

Without waiting for Yao Shu to refute, Shen Nanshan took Yao Shu's hand and walked towards the carriage together.

At this time, Shen Nanshan looked forward with a serious expression.

The way he faced the light was particularly dazzling in Yao Shu's eyes. At this moment, it seemed that he could help Yao Shu block all troubles and shoulder important responsibilities.

Arriving at the door of the Prince's Mansion, Yao Shu could clearly feel Shen Nanshan's fingertips trembling uncontrollably.

Yao Shu gently held his palm: "Don't be afraid, the prince might just call us to come over to discuss business matters."

Shen Nanshan smiled forcefully and nodded in agreement: "I know."

Even so, Shen Nanshan couldn't help but feel frightened.

Prince Jing was sitting in the hall early in the morning, waiting quietly for Yao Shu's arrival. The moment he saw Prince Jing appear, he raised his eyes slightly: "I didn't expect Brother Nanshan to come too."

Shen Nanshan bowed respectfully: "See you, Your Majesty."

"You don't have to be so polite. Please take a seat. You two are here today because I just want to inquire about what happened on the Shen family's journey to the Western Regions. I heard that the Shen family's journey was extremely bumpy, but due to this A lot of things have happened in a while, so I feel it’s hard to talk.”

"Your Majesty, you don't have to be so polite. I didn't complete the task that Your Majesty gave me before. I'm really sorry for letting down Your Majesty's good intentions. I have been thinking about it for a long time during this period, and I always feel that there is something a little unusual about this business. Department." Yao Shu paused, not knowing how to speak for a moment.

Prince Jing waved his hand: "You don't have to be so formal. If you have anything to say, it doesn't matter."

"There are very few people doing business in this business road now, and most of them still follow the official road. I asked about it, and it seems that it is because there are too many robbers on the business road, ignoring the laws and regulations, and being extremely arrogant." Yao Shu shook her head. His eyes were full of regret.

"With no one taking care of it for so many years, it will naturally become deserted, which is understandable. However, there is one thing we should pay attention to. The restart of the business road is imminent. Mrs. Shen is a woman, so if she is willing to continue to open the business road, I will naturally support it. ." Prince Jing was still looking at Yao Shu with a smile on his face, his eyes full of expectation, as if he expected that she would definitely agree.

Yao Shu lowered her eyes, hesitated for a moment, and shook her head gently: "Please forgive me, Your Majesty, the Shen family is also in its twenties now, and many things have not been settled yet. I want to wait until everything in the Shen family is settled before proceeding. Intend."

This can be regarded as a polite refusal.

If it were in the past, she would definitely agree.

Upon hearing this, Prince Jing's expression suddenly changed.

"That's fine. Can you use the token I gave you before?"

Prince Jing no longer refers to him as "I", probably because he was worried about Yao Shu's words. After all, he is the prince, and if he really wants others to do something, he will never be rejected.

Shen Nanshan glanced at Yao Shu in surprise, not knowing what the token was.

Yao Shu lowered her eyes and suddenly felt a little ashamed of facing Shen Nanshan.

When Prince Jing asked for his help in opening up business routes, he had already dragged the Shen family into this whirlpool.

If Prince Jing really wants to embarrass the Shen family, even if they don't know about it, Prince Jing can always control it.

Thinking of this, Yao Shu sighed a little irritably.

Maybe I was wrong from the beginning, trusting others too much, which led to today's situation.

If you want to get out of this situation, you have to give up everything in the Shen family and leave directly, or work hard to become stronger and make people who are watching you fear you.

Thinking of this, Yao Shu said calmly: "I have never used it, but fortunately the prince arranged for the guards to be by my side early in the morning, otherwise I would not have been rescued when I encountered danger."

She stood up and bowed respectfully.

"You don't have to be so polite. The road is extremely dangerous, but this is a guarantee."

Shen Nanshan suddenly realized this and quickly stood up and packed the luggage together: "It turns out that thanks to the help of the prince on this journey, I didn't know that the prince was so troubled about our Shen family's affairs. Thank you very much, Mr. Wang."

"You're welcome. So the rest of the Shen family didn't know?" Prince Jing murmured meaningfully.

It seems to be describing this fact, and also seems to be alluding to Yao Shu.

Yao Shu nodded slightly and replied: "Yes, this matter concerns the prince, so I did not tell anyone."

"It's okay. The Shen family is also a smart person. They must know what to do and what not to do. If the Shen family has finished their work in the future and still has ideas about business affairs, they can come to me at any time."

With these words, Prince Jing also issued an order to expel guests.

Yao Shu took a deep breath, bowed and left.

Along the way, Shen Nanshan did not speak to Yao Shu, and Yao Shu did not notice his displeasure.
