"Back to the emperor, the prince has been staying in the East Palace recently, and it is said that he wants to give something to the emperor as a congratulatory gift." Gao Gonggong stepped forward and said respectfully.

"Haha, okay, it's not my prince, and he really has filial piety." The Emperor complimented.

Father-in-law Gao lowered his head and did not echo, but there was a hint of imperceptible mockery in his eyes.

Throne room.

"Your Majesty, there is news from the border pass, the barbarians have been very unstable recently, and there is a great tendency to make a comeback."

A military general stepped forward, his voice carrying a yearning for the battlefield.

Since the Eighth Emperor killed his father and brother to become the emperor, the imperial court's emphasis on literature and light on military force has become more serious, which has made many generals worry about the future of the country.

"When the barbarians were repulsed, it has only been more than ten years, where did they get the troops?" The emperor said in a deep voice.

"It is said that the barbarians have been recuperating all these years, and now children over the age of ten have been sent to the battlefield, probably trying to fight to the death."

"Who is willing to lead troops to exterminate the barbarians and return peace to our Heavenly Empire." The Emperor asked in a deep voice.

The emperor's words fell, but there was silence for a while, the old military attache had already gotten the news, so naturally he would not make a sound, the young military attachés were all promoted by the emperor, and so many years of comfortable life had long made them not want to fight, not to mention the barbarians who did not want to die.

"The old minister is willing to lead the troops."

Zhen Guogong came out of the ranks, walked to the center of the main hall, and said loudly.

The emperor looked at Zhen Guogong, with a complicated look in his eyes, rubbing the wrench on his thumb, and suddenly laughed.

The civil and military officials didn't know whether the emperor was happy or unhappy, and they all kept silent and didn't dare to speak, and Zhenguo Gong stood in the center of the main hall, waiting for the emperor's response.

"Okay, then let the national abbot lead the troops and drive those barbarians back."

As soon as the emperor's words came out, everyone was shocked, the emperor was not talking about the prince of Zhenguo, but the prince of the country, the prime minister's face stiffened, thinking that the emperor who his daughter had told him before began to pay attention to the prince, and a touch of fierceness flashed in his eyes.

What happened in the previous dynasty soon spread throughout the harem, and the women in the harem began to panic, thinking of what they had done to the prince before, they all regretted it very much, not regretting what they had done, but regretting that they didn't take the prince's life!

The matter of Zhenguo Gong leading troops to the border pass instantly spread all over the imperial capital, and at this time the people remembered that Zhen Guogong was a hero who followed the first emperor to fight the country.

Huang Fuchen also heard about this, but he didn't react, just what was planned.

"Send someone to protect my grandfather." Huang Fuchen said lightly.

"Yes."

There was a fluctuation in the air, if someone was there, they would be very shocked, even if there were few secret guards of such strength, even the emperor.

"Are you all ready? Retribution is coming......"

The barbarians were menacing, burning, killing and looting at the border passes, doing all kinds of evil, and the Zhenguo Gong was ordered to set off after preparing everything.

When Zhenguo Gong led the troops away, it was so great that the people of the imperial capital consciously watched them leave, and they were their heroes.

Huang Fuchen stood on the city gate and watched, his eyes were faint, but no one dared to say that he had no feelings for them, because his eyes seemed to be light, but if he looked closely, he could see the trust in them and believed that they would succeed.

"Grandfather, Chen'er and sister are waiting for you to come back......"

Huangfu Chen's words were blown away by the wind, and drifted in the direction of the army's departure, if the prince of Zhenguo felt something, he looked back, and saw the young man standing on the city wall, with relief in his eyes, and continued to move forward.

Huang Fuchen sent the matter of Zhen Guogong on the city wall naturally could not be hidden from the emperor, after the emperor knew, the hand that dealt with the fold paused, and did not say anything for a while, and the entire imperial study was very quiet.

"How is the prince's health?" The Emperor asked suddenly.

"Back to the emperor, His Royal Highness the Prince's health has improved, and the imperial doctor said that he will be able to recover in a few years and live like a normal person." Gao Gong is fair.

"Well, let the prince start to learn how to handle government affairs." The emperor said lightly.

Gao Gonggong was shocked, he didn't know what the emperor meant, and Zhenguo Gong just left to let the prince take charge of the government, which ......

"The prince is ten years old, not young, it's time to learn to handle government affairs." The emperor put down the fold in his hand and said.

Gonggong Gao only answered and didn't speak again, and the emperor didn't care, and continued to deal with the twists and turns in his hand.

Imperial Capital Annex.

After Shen Wu came out of a nap, she saw her master sitting in the courtyard drinking tea, she moved a small bench over and sat next to her master.

Shen Yebai saw his little apprentice, took out a teacup, poured a cup of tea and handed it over.

Shen Wu drank a cup of tea like a peony, and couldn't help but turn his head to look at Shen Yebai.

"Master, you used to come to the imperial capital every year, what have you been doing since you came?"

Shen Wu's voice was soft, Shen Yebai smiled when she heard this, and poured her another cup of tea.

"The imperial capital that I went to for my teacher is not here."

Shen Wu frowned when he heard this, and continued to ask, "Where did the master go?"

Shen Yebai looked at Shen Wu, Shen Wu pouted, "Master, just tell me, Master~"

"Ah Wu, you are too young to know these things."

"Master! I ......"

"Ah Wu, we should go back in a while."

Shen Yebai smiled and diverted the topic.

When Shen Wu heard that she was going back, she didn't object, they had been out for a long time, and there was nothing fun in the imperial capital, she didn't like it here.

"Well, master, when are we leaving, and will we come back later?" Shen Wu asked casually.

"I'll be back in the future." Shen Yebai said ominously.

Shen Wu didn't care about this, sat next to Shen Yebai, and began to chat with Shen Yebai on Twitter.

Shen Yebai looked at Shen Wu, a soft color flashed in his eyes, Shen Wu accidentally looked up and saw the expression on Shen Yebai's face, and he was stunned for a while.

"Ah Wu? Ah Wu? ”

Shen Wu came back to her senses when she heard her master's voice, but the master's face no longer had the look she had just now, she shook her head, thinking that she had just seen it wrong.

A smile flashed in Shen Yebai's eyes, Shen Wu was still immersed in the entanglement of whether he was dazzled just now, and he didn't notice the smile in Shen Yebai's eyes.

Shen Yebai felt that in fact, even if his apprentice had no love for him when he became an adult, he was actually acceptable to get along like now.

Shen Yebai thought very well, but soon he was slapped in the face by himself, and at that time he knew that the premise of everything he could accept was that his apprentice relied on himself the most, not other people.

A messy man sneezed, rubbed his nose, and continued to process the folds in his hands.

"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, you should be careful of your body." Shen Rui persuaded.
