As soon as Shen Youan got out of the carriage, he saw Shen Xi come out.

"Auntie."

Shen Xi screamed excitedly, ran to Shen You'an and paused, lifted his robe, and knelt on the ground; "Nephew greets aunt."

Shen Youan looked at him and smiled; "What's the matter, didn't you want to call me aunt before? Hurry up. ”

Shen Youan helped Shen Xi up, Shen Xi glanced at the carriage behind her, and said softly; "Auntie, why did His Majesty let you out of the palace?"

"Let's go in first." Shen Youan interrupted him, Shen Xi nodded, and took Shen Youan inside.

As soon as they entered the courtyard, Granny Yu and Man Chun came out to greet Shen You'an, and the servants in the courtyard were all slaves who were bought last year.

Shen Youan said with a smile; "What's the matter today, why are all the rules that there were no before, so why are they all so great today? Get up. ”

Man Chun helped Yu Nanniang to get up, and the others also stood up, this courtyard was personally selected by Shen You'an, and he was naturally familiar with the structure here, and followed Yu Nanniang to the house, and all the people around him retreated, Man Chun wanted to speak, but was stopped by Yu Nanniang; "The prince is afraid that if he has something to say to the county lord, the slaves and maids will retire first."

"Milkmaid"

Shen Youan wanted to say something, but Granny Yu waved her hand and said; "Today is the county lord's birthday, and the slave and maid have prepared the county lord's favorite food for the county lord, and in the kitchen, I will go and bring it to the county lord."

With that, he pulled Man Chun and walked out.

Shen Youan and Shen Xi sat face-to-face at the table, Shen Xi said; "Auntie, what exactly does Your Majesty mean? And what does he mean to you? ”

Shen Xi came up and went straight to the point, Shen Youan was stunned for a moment and shook his head; "I don't know."

She really didn't know what Her Majesty meant, and to be honest, Her Majesty was treating her so well now that she didn't know what Her Majesty meant.

Shen Xi is outside the palace, and he doesn't know how she is doing in the palace, he didn't see Shen You'an last time he left the palace, but he heard the big housekeeper say that she seems to be doing well, but he doesn't believe it, how good can she live as a female official in the palace and serve His Majesty? Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, there has not been a woman with the status of her aunt who has been used as a female official, what does Your Majesty mean by this?

"Auntie, the day before yesterday, it was the secret guard around Your Majesty who came to tell me that you will leave the palace today, let me wait for you here, and don't tell anyone else, Auntie, Your Majesty's move seems to be intentional for you."

Are you interested in yourself? Perhaps, it's just that she herself doesn't understand, shouldn't he hate himself?

Shen Youan chuckled; "How old are you, don't talk nonsense."

Shen Xi snorted; "My aunt is only two years older than me, I will be able to tie the crown next year, if Your Majesty has no intention of you, why should you be allowed to leave the palace."

"Intentionally or unintentionally, he is His Majesty."

Shen Xi was stunned, yes, he is His Majesty, the lord of the world, what to do is naturally not the turn of others to interfere, but I finally want to understand, what is His Majesty's mind about his aunt, what does it mean to keep people by his side to be a female official, their Anping Mansion has been a king with a different surname in Beijing since the establishment of the Dayu Dynasty, passed down from generation to generation, loyal and good from generation to generation, and tried his best to assist the government, the ancestral law let the palace be lowered, they have nothing to say, but why? My aunt is the lord of the county, and she wants to go to the place where she eats people and doesn't spit out bones for people to call, when she first learned about it, he was about to go crazy, but he was helpless, he was just the son of the Anping Prince's mansion, he didn't have any official position, and he occupied the name of the prince of Anping, but he couldn't do anything.

"Auntie, you have to let me know what Your Majesty means to you, if it really means to you, then I."

Speaking of the back, he found that he couldn't go on, he wanted to say that he was desperate to fight for his aunt for a high position, but what kind of fight did he take, he couldn't even enter the court.

"Ah Xi, let me ask you, if you hate someone, will you keep her by your side?"

"What kind of annoyance?"

Shen Youan was stunned, "It's that kind of disgust from the bottom of my heart." ”

Shen Xi raised his head and smiled at Shen You'an, and said; "Auntie, if it's hated from the bottom of my heart, why should I stay by my side and annoy myself, naturally I'm far away, out of sight."

"Then, if the girl you liked before hurt you badly, would you still like her?"

Shen Xi was a little surprised by Shen You'an's words, how could my aunt ask such a question, could it be that she had hurt Her Majesty before, but it was impossible, my aunt had never been in contact with Her Majesty before, how could she hurt Her Majesty?

He sighed and pointed to himself; "Auntie, I'm only fourteen years old, is it really good for you to ask this kind of question?"

Shen Youan smiled awkwardly, yes, why did she ask Ah Xi such a question? How does he know?

"Auntie, have you ever thought about whether to obey Your Majesty and be a concubine in the harem if your majesty is interested in you, or whether you will compete for the throne with countless women in the harem."

"I, I won't be a concubine."

"That aunt wants to be a queen."

Shen Youan subconsciously shook his head.

"That aunt doesn't want to be a queen or a concubine, can Your Majesty agree?

Shen You paused and said; "I don't know, I never thought about being queen."

Yes, she doesn't want to be a concubine, and she can't be a concubine, her father taught her to know etiquette, righteousness and shame since she was a child, how can she abandon her self-esteem and become a concubine? Even if it is a concubine, it is also a concubine, but the position of the queen, she never thought that she would marry one day, from the moment she entered the palace as a female official, she never thought about getting married, she used to only think about releasing the palace at the age of twenty-five to guard the tomb for her father and mother and concubine, if Her Majesty does not let herself out of the palace, then she is also willing to serve Her Majesty in the Shengning Palace, but if Her Majesty wants to mess around, she will wring her head and send out of the house, the royal family will not allow a sister-in-law to be the imperial concubine.

Shen Xi understood that his aunt was unwilling to be a concubine, and as for the posterior, she didn't dare to think about it, Shen Xi was annoyed for a while, secretly annoyed that she was useless, if her grandfather was still there, why would her aunt be like this.

"Don't talk about this, today is my aunt's birthday, and I prepared a birthday gift for my aunt."

As he spoke, he picked up the box that had been put aside and handed it to Shen Youan, who said with a smile; "What is it?"

Shen Xi said with a smile; "You can't disassemble it now, I'll open it when you get back."

"Hmm." Shen Youan smiled and nodded.

She suddenly remembered the scene where Her Majesty gave her a birthday gift, Her Majesty, that was Her Majesty, the gifts he gave to herself were all made by himself, so that the lord of a country could personally prepare gifts for her, how fortunate she was, she knew that Shen Xi asked her what these meant today, he was worried that he had been wronged in the palace, His Majesty had been suppressing the Anping Mansion before, but I am afraid that now the Anping Mansion is not very easy to be above the court, everyone knows that His Majesty Xià does not like the Anping Mansion, she entered the palace as a female official, Others only thought that it was the Anping Mansion that affected her, but they didn't know that it was actually her who affected the Anping Mansion.

Although Ah Xi is only fourteen, but as the son of the Anping Mansion, he does not even have an official and a half position, and in this generation, only the Anping Duke barely has a seat in the court, and the others are just hanging an idle seat.

"Ah Xi, what if I say that I may not be able to leave the palace? How are you going to do it? ”

Shen Xi was silent for a long time, then raised his head and said; "Auntie, I want to join the army."

His Majesty is suppressing the Anping Mansion, relying on his father's relationship, no one is willing to help him find an official, and the only way he can go is to join the army, little by little, from the bottom.

Shen Youan took a deep breath, and sure enough, she knew that it was wrong for him to ask herself these questions, joining the army, how could it be as easy as imagined, not to mention that now the Anping Mansion has no power in the army, and when he gets there, it is unknown whether he can come back alive.

"Shen Xi, I sue you, if you want to be an official and want to help me, then you can rely on your true skills to let Your Majesty see your talent, but I don't agree with joining the army, do you know how difficult that road is? Little by little, get up from the bottom, not to mention how dangerous it is, even if you really climb up, how many years will you use, what else can you help me at that time, if you want to help me, you can be your son of Anping in peace, don't let me worry, I don't need you to do anything for me, Your Majesty doesn't need you to come. ”

"Am I just going to do nothing? Auntie, what kind of face do you let me have to see my grandfather in the future? ”

Shen Youxin was stunned for a moment, and then said; "You know what your grandfather is most worried about, he is most worried that the Anping Mansion will fall after he leaves, you won't be unclear about what your father's character is, your grandfather pinned his hopes on you, if you have any three strengths and two weaknesses, then you really have no face to see your grandfather."

Shen Xi also knew that it was unrealistic to join the army, but he really thought about it for a long time, and now that Shen Youan said this, he realized that what he thought was still too simple.

Shen Youan saw that he didn't speak, so he said; "Don't worry, I'm very good in the palace, and His Majesty treats me very well, as for what His Majesty thinks, it's not for us to guess."

"But, auntie."

Shen Youan stood up and said; "Don't say it again, think about the consequences before making any decisions in the future, you are the prince of the Anping Mansion, as long as Your Majesty does not cut the title of the Anping Mansion for a day, you are the prince of the Anping Mansion, and Your Majesty will never let you be an official."

Saying this is just to dispel Shen Xi's idea of joining the army, to be honest, now Shen Youan herself is a little irritable, and she has never dared to think about what will happen in the future.

Shen Xi was so young that when she heard her say this, she was secretly annoyed that she was not thoughtful in doing things, so she stood up and said; "I know, Auntie sit down, let Granny Yu bring the wine and food, and let's celebrate."

Shen Youan waved his hand; "No, I have to go back."

"Is my aunt angry with me, I don't dare, I won't dare to think about it in the future, you sit down."

Shen Youan glared at him angrily and said; "I'm not mad at you, I'm really going back."

After a pause, she continued; "Your Majesty is still waiting for me in the carriage outside."

"What?"

Shen Xi's eyes widened in surprise, His Majesty actually came, and he didn't come in, he was waiting outside, does that mean that His Majesty values his aunt very much.
