Emperor Shen's charming wife

However, not all officials truly support reform. There are some officials who flatter the reform on the surface, but actually disobey it in secret. In order to protect their own interests, they secretly do whatever it takes to obstruct the progress of reform. "Your Majesty, these officials are two-faced and disobey the reform in public. How should we deal with them?" Ning Yao frowned and asked worriedly. Shen Yu stroked his chin and said after thinking for a moment: "These officials are all old officials of the court. We can't act rashly. We should think of a foolproof plan to make them sincerely support the reform." "Your Majesty, we might as well start with their families and let their families become a force to support the reform." Ning Yao's eyes lit up and suggested. Shen Yu nodded slightly, "Okay, as you say." Eunuch Li also did his best to help Shen Yu and Ning Yao solve their problems in the palace. He worked tirelessly to secretly investigate those officials with ambiguous attitudes, just to ensure that the reform can be carried out smoothly. "Your Majesty, these officials are flattering on the surface, but they are actually obstructing the reform in secret. They are obstructing the reform by any means for their own selfish reasons." Eunuch Li said anxiously. Shen Yu frowned, "These officials are old ministers of the court, we can't touch them easily. We should find a way to make them support the reform." Eunuch Li nodded, "Your Majesty, we can start with their families and make their families support the reform." Shen Yu nodded, "Okay, let's do as you say." On the way out of the palace for an inspection, the carriage that Shen Yu and Ning Yao were riding in was moving slowly. Suddenly, a gust of wind swept by, accompanied by the guards shouting: "Your Majesty, there is an assassin!" Shen Yu and Ning Yao looked at each other, and a glimmer of enlightenment flashed in each other's eyes, knowing that someone must be trying to take their lives. "Protect Your Majesty!" The guards shouted in unison, quickly drawing out their weapons with cold light, and tightly protecting Shen Yu and Ning Yao in the middle like a copper wall. "Kill!" The assassins roared fiercely, waving their sharp blades and rushing towards Shen Yu and Ning Yao frantically. Shen Yu and Ning Yao were not afraid at all. They both drew their swords from their waists, and in an instant, the swords crossed and launched a thrilling and fierce battle with the assassins. "Yao'er, be careful!" Shen Yu shouted with concern while fighting hard. "Your Majesty, you should be careful too!" Ning Yao responded loudly. Shen Yu and Ning Yao fought side by side, cooperated tacitly, and soon repelled the assassins with swords. "Your Majesty, we are fine." Ning Yao said with a slight breath. "I am fine." Shen Yu's face was solemn. Shen Yu and Ning Yao's hearts were burning with rage. They knew that this attack was not accidental. "Your Majesty, what should we do?" Ning Yao asked with a frown. "Let's go back to the palace first." Shen Yu said. Shen Yu and Ning Yao hurried back to the palace and immediately summoned the ministers to discuss countermeasures. "Your Majesty, this attack is not accidental. We must be on high alert." A minister said seriously. "Your Majesty, we must find out the mastermind as soon as possible to avoid being attacked again." Another minister said anxiously. Shen Yu nodded, "I know, I will strengthen my vigilance and find out the mastermind as soon as possible." Shen Yu and Ning Yao knew that although the attack was averted, it also clearly exposed the complex situation of powerful enemies outside and treacherous people inside. Faced with new challenges, Shen Yu and Ning Yao were determined and confident. They decided to push forward the reform more deeply, strengthen border defense, and prepare for unknown storms. "Yao'er, we must be careful." Shen Yu said affectionately. "Your Majesty, I know." Ning Yao nodded gently. Shen Yu and Ning Yao hugged each other tightly. They knew that the road ahead was still long and rugged. They must work together to face unknown challenges together.
