One hundred and eighty nine chapters: helpless
The two of them talked with each other like guns and sticks, but the difference between Shen Jianxin and Shen Chonglou was that the former did not take these words to heart. He smiled and passed by him and entered the imperial study room.
Seeing Shen Jianxin leaving, Zhongzhonglou's face turned ugly. He looked towards the door with dissatisfaction, but after a moment he returned to leaving calmly.
This is the imperial study room. No matter how much dissatisfaction Chongzhonglou has, it can only be buried in his heart and cannot be discovered by people in high positions.
In the imperial study room, as soon as Shen Jianxin entered the room, he immediately stopped smiling, walked to the emperor's case seriously and knelt down: "See you, father!"
"You're back?" The emperor nodded, motioned for Shen Jianxin to sit down and said, "You've been traveling around a lot lately, have you encountered anything interesting?"
"When I go back to my father, I have encountered many interesting things during my time away from home. If I have a chance someday, I will definitely tell my father about them."
Shen Jianxin smiled and sat not far from the emperor. Of course, he would not be stupid enough to take the emperor's greetings seriously and follow his wishes.
Such a calm and steady look is completely different from Shen Chonglou. When the emperor saw Shen Jian's heart like this, he immediately nodded with satisfaction and said softly: "Speaking of which, you are quite old. When do you plan to get married?"
"If you have a woman you like, you must tell me. Yesterday, I saw the official minister bringing his grandson to the audience. I was very envious. When will you be able to add a grandson to me?"
It's not like they haven't seen each other for many years, but Shen Jianxin has reached the marriageable age after all, and the emperor will always talk a few words when he sees him.
After all, the emperor's children are all old, but the ministers' sons who are younger than them all have children. As a father, it is normal for the emperor to be worried.
"I understand that if I have a girl that I like, I will definitely bring it to my father to see. When I introduce her, I hope that my father will be pleased with her."
It's just that now is not the time to talk about these things. The emperor deliberately brought up these small talk, and Shen Jianxin also understood his intention. After following his words for a few words, he planned to leave.
"It's getting late, so I will leave without disturbing my father's work. I also ask my father not to work too hard. Your health is your priority."
"Well, please step back!"
Unexpectedly, Shen Jianxin had just stood up when he saw the eunuch carrying a brocade box into the royal study. Seeing his cautious look, Shen Jianxin immediately frowned and his expression became particularly solemn.
This is exactly two quarters of an hour after breakfast, and most common decoctions are taken at this time.
It's just that what's in the brocade box shouldn't be any decoction. From this point of view, the only thing in it should be the elixir of immortality.
Thinking of this, Shen Jianxin immediately looked at the emperor with a solemn expression. But the man seemed to have guessed his intention and only waved his hand to signal him to leave quickly.
Seeing this, Shen Jianxin could only leave the imperial study with a worried look, and then waited at the door until the eunuch came out and stopped him.
"Your Majesty just used the Immortality Pill made by the Grand Master. This thing is extremely precious, and there are strict rules when taking it. I know that Your Highness is curious, but there are some things that His Highness cannot ask."
The great eunuch had already guessed what the person in front of him meant. He smiled and brushed away Shen Jianxin's hand, and explained softly amidst the person's worries.
"If your highness is worried about your majesty's dragon body, you can go to the fairy mountain to find a way. If you can really find the elixir of immortality, your majesty will definitely be very happy."
Seeing that Shen Jianxin still had no intention of leaving, the great eunuch sighed helplessly and continued: "Just one thing, please don't make false claims, don't make assertions, and don't go to His Majesty and say useless words."
"My prince understands, thank you father-in-law for your teaching." The other party had already said this, what else could Shen Jianxin say?
Shen Jianxin could only thank the eunuch helplessly, and then left the imperial study room with doubts. When he got on the carriage leaving the palace, he bumped into a bunch of people wearing Taoist robes and headed towards the imperial study room. .
Shen Jianxin knew very well that this must have been requested by the emperor. As for who arranged it, it seems that this posture has nothing to do with Shen Chonglou, right?
"He really knows how to do what he wants!" Shen Jianxin gritted his teeth and looked at the group of Taoist priests traveling far away, and his worry about the emperor became stronger and stronger.
But the current emperor has always been obsessed with cultivating immortals and immortality. Shen Jian's heart is soft-spoken, and no one will care about what he says.
Thinking of this, Shen Jianxin could only return to the mansion with worries. It would be the emperor's birthday in a few days, and he had to seize the time to prepare a decent gift in order to slightly change his current situation...
In the building where the spring breeze was triumphant, Nan Jiangnan had been busy all day and had just had a chance to wash up and rest. However, he sat upstairs with a worried look on his face and watched the crowds of people coming downstairs.
Among the crowd, Nan Jiangnan saw many dancers lined up neatly and getting into a luxurious carriage. Following the carriage were a bunch of gorgeously dressed guards.
That group of people should be the dancers specially selected for the emperor's birthday banquet. As the birthday is approaching, they naturally have to go to the palace together to ensure that the dance can proceed smoothly.
Nan Jiangnan knew very well what would happen on the day of the emperor's birthday banquet.
As the group of dancers danced, the stage would burst into flames for no apparent reason. With the efforts of everyone, the fire was extinguished, but several big words "treason" appeared on the stage.
Those few words were enough to put Shen Jianxin into danger. And the initiator of this incident was Zhongzhong Lou who had always disliked Shen Jianxin.
When she thought that something like that would happen soon, Nan Jiangnan couldn't sleep or eat well. She knew very well that if she wanted to reverse the situation, she could only rely on herself.
But in a place like the palace, Nan Jiangnan was just a merchant's daughter, and with a low status, how could she be qualified to enter the palace?
Thinking of this, Nan Jiangnan became more and more irritable.
"Now I can only find a noble person who can speak well and place him among the group of people who arrange the birthday banquet, but it is too difficult to find such a person. What should I do?"
Being powerless, he must be talking about the current Nan Jiangnan, right? She clearly knows how the crisis occurred and how to resolve it.
But she couldn't reach it and couldn't go there. This became her biggest obstacle.
This capital city is so big that Nan Jiangnan is alone in the final analysis. No one will make plans for a noble person just because of a cook or a restaurant owner.
