The emperor discovered that someone in the imperial court was secretly buying soldiers and forging weapons recently.

Once there is such a move, it means that someone intends to rebel.

The emperor was naturally frightened, so he specially found Shen Fugui to discuss this matter with him. Intention of rebellion was of great importance, so Shen Fugui did not tell the Shen family about it.

Hearing this, a gasp of air came from outside the study.

Shen Fugui was shocked, and then realized that someone was eavesdropping outside.

Yao Shu had discovered this a long time ago, so she said softly: "Since you have been eavesdropping outside for so long, why not come in and discuss it together."

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Bei stepped forward cautiously.

Behind him were other members of the Shen family, who looked particularly reserved.

This look made Yao Shu a little helpless. She frowned and asked, "How long have you been eavesdropping?"

"From beginning to end." Shen Bei was also a little embarrassed.

"Since everyone is here, I will tell you what I have to say directly. There is indeed something I have been hiding from you recently, and it is precisely because of this matter that I have such a conflict with your father. I always thought that I One person can solve this matter, and I don’t want you to be implicated. But later I discovered that I have always represented the Shen family, and no matter what my words, deeds, and decisions are related to you."

Shen Nanshan nodded happily: "That's the reason. You always kept everything to yourself before, putting yourself in dangerous situations. It's precisely because of this that I am so angry."

After saying that, he also realized that he shouldn't lose his temper with Yao Shu.

"I didn't think well and brought bad emotions to you. But I also hope that no matter what happens in the future, our family can face it together. At least you won't deal with it alone." Shen Nanshan took the initiative to reach out. Holding Yao Shu's hand, "I know what I did during this period has also troubled you. No matter what happens in the future, we will be fine."

Hearing this, Yao Shu nodded silently.

Shen Nanshan has always been thinking about himself, but he only regarded them as NPCs from beginning to end.

Now it seems that I have fully integrated into today's society.

I can no longer regard the other members of the Shen family as just ordinary NPCs, but I am a member of the Shen family after all.

"it is good."

Seeing the reconciliation between Yao Shu and Shen Nanshan, the rest of the Shen family also breathed a sigh of relief.

During this period, everyone could feel the conflict between the two of them, and even the atmosphere in the Shen family was particularly depressing.

Now that the two of them are finally getting back together, it is naturally a great thing for the Shen family.

There are more important things that need to be discussed by the Shen family at the moment, and Yao Shu looks at Shen Fugui.

"Just now you said that the emperor intends to discuss with you the matter of someone who is not planning to rebel. I wonder if the emperor has anyone to suspect now?" Yao Shu frowned and asked.

Shen Fugui shook his head: "The emperor just asked me to come up with a response plan, but he didn't tell me clearly who this person was, and he didn't even give me any clues about this person."

"Is it possible that the emperor just wants to test us?" Shen Jian'an asked curiously.

"We don't rule out this possibility, but we should not speculate on the emperor's thoughts at the moment. Since the emperor doesn't mention it, it means there must be something suspicious now." Yao Shu's hand gently fiddled with the wooden table.

She was debating whether she should tell the rest of the Shen family about Prince Jing, but she couldn't decide, so she turned to look at Shen Nanshan.

Shen Nanshan shook his head gently: "Why don't we tell everyone about this."

"That's fine. You can't tell anyone what I'm going to say next. If it spreads, it's very likely that our Shen family will be doomed." After Yao Shu finished speaking, she hallucinated for a week.

The Shen family was a little confused, but they didn't fully express it.

After all, if something happened on a daily basis, Yao Shu would never be so secretive.

Now that I think about it, maybe it really is something important.

"Mom, please tell us if you have anything. We have always seen you and dad looking worried these days. It must be a dispute in the court." Shen Bei is also a smart man.

"This time we went to the Western Regions with the help of Prince Jing. We should really thank him for this." Yao Shu paused and then added, "He gave me a token. This token can summon The secret guards trained by Prince Jing before."

"Could it be the mysterious man who helped us fight off the masked man?" Shen Bei frowned and began to recall.

"That person is Prince Jing's secret guard. They have been following us all the way, but I have never summoned them."

The reason why Yao Shu did not use secret guards was because she did not want to cause panic to other people in the family. After all, there were still princesses and palace guards. Secondly, she didn't want to owe Prince Jing any favors. Although she really wanted to use the token, her intuition told her to wait.

"It's precisely because I didn't use secret guards that I didn't leave any clue to Prince Jing." Yao Shu took a deep breath and suddenly felt a little grateful for her intuition.

"Why did the prince train so many secret guards privately? I see that each of them has strong martial arts skills, and they must be no ordinary people. The prince asked us to help open up business routes, and fully helped us to go to the Western Region. In addition, there are always people on the way. I can hear a lot of comments about the prince, could it be that..." Shen Bei was halfway through his words when he suddenly didn't dare to continue.

Several other Shen family members who were heading to the Western Regions turned around and looked at Yao Shu in panic, hesitating and unable to say a word.

In the end, Yao Shu couldn't help but nodded: "As you may have guessed, I always feel that the prince is too strange. At present, I have no clear evidence to prove that there is indeed something wrong with the prince. To be on the safe side, it is better not to alert others. It’s good.”

Having said this, Yao Shu sighed softly: "This is also the reason why I am unwilling to tell you the secrets hidden in my heart. I am worried that you will be involved in Prince Jing's trap after knowing this matter."

"But if you don't tell us, you have to bear these things yourself. For such a long time, you must have been worried and scared in your heart." Shen Jian'an also felt a little regretful.

Listening to everyone talking, Shen He felt very strange: "What are you all talking about? Why can't I understand a word of it."
