Chapter 528: Awkward Coexistence
Sighing softly, Xie Shiyun paced back and forth on the steps: "First, if there is Xie Yuan's remnants that have not been cleared, it will be very troublesome for them to take action against Xie Wen, and what needs to be guaranteed most now is Xie Wen's safety." Second, those remnants of the remnants will definitely attack me when they see that I have entered the palace and are ready to preside over the government, and at this time they can be caught all of them, and they will not have to be investigated again. ”
This explanation seemed to convince the officials below, and they nodded to each other that it was right, or even better, so as not to make a mistake there.
"Why, is this justifiable?" Xie Shiyun looked at the officials who had been pushing her to be the emperor just now, thinking that she seemed to have played with them, she couldn't help but want to laugh, and they didn't dare to say that she was not.
"Wechen thinks this is very appropriate." The first to speak was the old minister, but he still insisted that Xie Shiyun preside over the government for a few days, "There is still a period of time before the eleventh prince returns to the palace, and during this time, I hope that the princess will temporarily manage the government to avoid chaos on the border." Wait for the new emperor to return, and then hand over power to him. ”
Thinking that this old minister is right, he must not let the Xiongnu race take advantage of the danger of others to invade Da Chen, so Xie Shiyun agreed: "Okay, then I will replace Xie Wen in the court these days, but I hope that the general will assist the government, I don't know if the general is willing?" ”
Shen Sijun, who was in a trance, suddenly heard Xie Shiyun calling his name, and hurriedly came back to his senses: "Yes, Weichen is willing to do his best." "The fact that he and Xie Shiyun are brother and sister has always given him a headache these days, and he is still thinking about it today, and he will govern the country together next, I don't know what it will become.
"Okay, then the general will assist the government, do you have any opinions?" Xie Shiyun looked at the officials below again, and saw that they shook their heads and said they had no opinion, so they dispersed.
The next day, Xie Shiyun went to court normally, and Shen Sijun still stood at the head of the ministers, and listened to the officials' music with Xie Shiyun.
For fear of being embarrassed to get along alone, Xie Shiyun usually asked for the solution to be made clear in the court, and did not want to discuss it alone with Shen Sijun after the dispersal of the court.
And Shen Sijun also saw Xie Shiyun's meaning clearly, he didn't want to do this, it would be a kind of torture for her and himself, but if he went to see her alone, wouldn't it be painful to tell her what he thought?
What's more, she always knew what she thought, otherwise she wouldn't have avoided him like this. So in order to suppress his feelings, Shen Sijun also silently firmly believed in Xie Shiyun's intentions.
As if seeing what Shen Sijun meant, Xie Shiyun breathed a sigh of relief but was even more sad, both of them were suffering like this, when would they be a head.
Soon, the time came for the two to be alone. Because they knew that the other party was silently avoiding themselves, both of them relaxed a little, and after listening to the content of the official's report that day, Xie Shiyun fell into deep thought, and Shen Sijun didn't have anything to do for a while.
Xie Shiyun didn't notice Shen Sijun's appearance, so he said to the officials below: "You should retreat from the court first, and I will discuss this matter with you after I think about it carefully." After hearing this, the ministers retreated one after another, but Shen Sijun stood still because he was thinking about things.
When Xie Shiyun was about to walk back to the inner hall, he saw that Shen Sijun had not left yet, and at this time, Shen Sijun's eyes also turned over, and the two met their eyes, Xie Shiyun quickly moved away, and Shen Sijun also lowered his head.
In order not to look so embarrassed, Xie Shiyun opened her mouth first: "The general is not leaving yet, but what questions do you have?" This is said indifferently and detachedly, which makes people's hearts chill when they hear it.
"Back to the princess, Weichen is still thinking about the solution to the matter just now." Shen Sijun respectfully bowed his hand to her.
Who would have thought that the two people who were going to talk about marriage at the beginning have now become a relationship between monarchs and ministers, and they must always be polite and courteous, and they can't slack off at all.
"Did the general think of anything?" Xie Shiyun followed his words and asked.
"Back to the princess, Weichen is incompetent, I can't think of any good way for the time being." He said this very helplessly, he couldn't share her worries, and he was very sad in his heart.
"Then the general will go back first, and when he comes up with a solution, it's not too late to call the ministers to discuss." Xie Shiyun obviously didn't want to discuss with him, so she directly issued an eviction order.
Seeing that Xie Shiyun was about to leave, Shen Sijun couldn't care so much, straightened up and called her: "Does the princess have to be like this?" Do you know that I like you so much that you can't help yourself, but you want to say such raw things to stimulate me? ”
Hearing this, Xie Shiyun couldn't help but be a little annoyed, and responded in a cold tone: "General, don't forget, you are a courtier, and if you talk to this princess like this, you will be punished." Putting aside the courtesy of the monarch and the minister, the general is my brother, how can I talk nonsense! ”
Everyone in the world knows that they are brother and sister, but even Xie Shiyun has to use this relationship to slander him, which is what hurts him the most: "They all say that I am brother and sister with you, and there can be no love between men and women, I don't care, but even you have to say this, I ......"
"Someone, send the general out." Without waiting for Shen Sijun to finish speaking, Xie Shiyun called the palace people to lead Shen Sijun out, her face was full of indifference, Shen Sijun desperately tried to find a gap in the face with the mask, but the mask was impeccable, he could only turn around and leave in frustration.
Catching a glimpse of his back as he left with his peripheral vision, Xie Shiyun couldn't hold back any longer, strode towards his room, and locked all the palace people outside as soon as he entered the door, no matter how they screamed, they didn't open the door.
Her back slowly slipped off against the door frame, Xie Shiyun sat on the ground and hugged herself tightly, she wanted to take that step towards Shen Sijun, but no, he had a blood feud with herself, but such an enemy was related to herself, and it was this blood relationship that gave her a reason not to kill him.
Tears slid down her cheeks, if she had known that he was her brother, she would never be so sad, but she had to wait until they had experienced so many ups and downs together before telling them about this relationship, it was really heart-wrenching to death!
Trying hard to suppress his sadness, Xie Shiyun stood up again, opened the door, and instructed the palace people outside the door: "You are not allowed to say a word about today's matter." Frightened, the palace people knelt down and agreed.
After the last dynasty, the two avoided each other even more, and those who could not talk would not talk, and some officials saw the awkwardness of the two of them, and thought to themselves how the two brothers and sisters who had a good relationship should act as if they didn't know each other.
And the people who knew their inside story only sighed silently, if they were not brother and sister, they would definitely be a pair of loving mandarin ducks.
