Fengming Chen Palace

Chapter 243
When Su Qingning woke up, Emperor Chen had already left. He had just returned and had many things to deal with.

Rubbing her sore waist, Su Qingning sighed helplessly, and gave orders to the outer room.

Hongjin and Hongxiu went into the inner room, helped Su Qingning get up, and when everything was settled, Su Qingning ordered someone to pass the meals.

Above the court hall, the Emperor Chen sat at the head of the court, listening to the ministers expressing their opinions one by one. Regarding the Chu family, they all agreed that the weeds should be eradicated.

Although only a part of the Chu family was imprisoned in the sky prison, it would not delay anything. Those who were still outside could be arrested.

Emperor Chen had his own thoughts in his heart, and the Chu family's crime of helping Xuanyuanqi to plot rebellion was unforgivable.

Historically, people like this have been punished by the Nine Clans, but for so many years, the Chu family has not done nothing at all in the court.

Executing everyone to death is always a bit inappropriate. The Emperor Chen thought, except for the heinous ones who must be beheaded, the rest of the young and middle-aged people will be punished according to the situation.

As for women and children, although they are a little innocent, they still have to be dealt with because they are sitting together.

The emperor intends to exile them to the outskirts, so that they will never return to the capital. As for whether they can survive during the exile, it depends on their fate.

Of course, this matter can only be carried out after Xuanyuanqi and the Chu family are all arrested, so as not to be rescued by them in the process.

After the officials calmed down, the Emperor Chen expressed his opinion. After hearing the Emperor Chen finished speaking, all the ministers looked at me and I looked at you, and saluted the Emperor together.

"I will issue a warrant to arrest Xuanyuanqi and those who escaped from the Chu family. As for those who are in prison today, I will deal with them according to their crimes."

"Your Majesty is wise!" The emperor's decision convinced all the ministers, seeing that everyone had no objections, the emperor nodded.

"If you have nothing to do, let's leave the court." The most important thing has already been said, the Emperor Chen said in a calm tone, the officials look at me, I look at you, there is nothing else to say.

Emperor Chen thought for a while, and ordered Shen Yu to stay, and then dispersed the morning court.

Taking Shen Yu out of the main hall, the two of them walked in the palace. It is already April, and the flowers in the harem are all blooming.

Shen Yu happened to have something to look for the emperor, now that the emperor took the initiative to look for him, he waited patiently.

"It's not a big deal for me to ask you here." After a long time, Emperor Chen said, "You have contributed a lot to this matter, but what do you want?"

How to reward Shen Yu, Emperor Chen had already thought about it, but now, he didn't plan to announce it.

He was waiting for the letter from the northwest frontier to be sent back, and it would not be too late to reward the two brothers after Chen Xiao's charges were cleared.

Before that, he wanted to know what Shen Yu wanted more than the reward he wanted to give.

"It is my honor to be able to serve the emperor, and no reward is needed. Of course, if the emperor really wants to reward me, I would like to ask the emperor for a marriage."

Saluting to Emperor Chen, Shen Yu said what he wanted, and after listening to him, there was a little surprise on Emperor Chen's face.

"Give a marriage? Which girl do you like? Let's hear it." Shen Yu is Su Qingning's eldest cousin. If he really asks for a marriage, he will naturally agree, but he is curious, which girl is it.

"If you go back to the emperor, you know her, she is the former saintess of Southern Chu Kingdom, Yueling." Somewhat embarrassed, Shen Yu replied again.

"It's her? This is beyond my expectation." Emperor Chen was even more surprised, he didn't expect these two people to get together.

"Now that the Chu family has collapsed, based on the merits of you and Shen Xiao this time, your Shen family's position in the court will become more stable. Are you sure you want to marry Yueling? Although she is the former saintess of the Southern Chu Kingdom, but This identity is useless in our Daxing."

Looking at Shen Yu, Emperor Chen asked him, he said this for Shen Yu's good.

According to Shen Yu's current status, there are many suitable women in the families of the ministers in the court who are willing to marry him.

If he can find someone with a strong family, it will be of great help to his future.

However, Shen Yu chose Yue Ling. It can be said that Yue Ling did not help him at all.

"Even so, I would like to marry Yue Ling. If it wasn't for her, I would have died. Of course, I wanted to marry her, not because of gratitude, but because I liked her. I liked her a long time ago. She is gone, please let the emperor do it."

Shen Yu understood what the emperor said, why didn't he know that if he found a wife with a powerful natal family, it would be a great help to him, but he would rather be with the person he likes.

Besides, he doesn't feel that depending on his ability, he can't move forward. He is still young, and everything is possible.

Another one, even if it is for Qingning and the children, he will work hard. Although the emperor now only has two princes born to Qingning, who can guarantee that Qingning will always be favored by the emperor?
If in the future, Qing Ning loses favor, and other concubines become pregnant in the harem and give birth to a prince, the situation of Qing Ning and the children may become very bad.

Therefore, he must work hard to move forward. In this way, even if Qingning loses favor in the future and has a cousin who is very powerful in the court, she will not be in a difficult situation.

"Since that's the case, I will allow you. You go back and make preparations." Even if the emperor bestows marriage, the horoscope is indispensable. Shen Yu needs to present his and Yue Ling's horoscope to Qin Tianjian, who will Choose an auspicious day for Shen Yu and Yue Ling to get married.

"Your Majesty, can you move forward as much as possible on the day of getting married?" After hesitating for a while, Shen Yu spoke again. Yue Ling was pregnant, and if it took a long time, her belly should show up.

If the day of Qin Tian's supervisor's election is too late, it will be inconvenient to hold a wedding.

"It seems that you really like that Yue Ling very much, and you can't wait so much."

After hearing Shen Yu's words, Emperor Chen said with a smile, "Since that's the case, let Qin Tianjian move the days forward as much as you said, and you go home and let your family prepare."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Shen Yu was very happy to get the Emperor's permission. After all the questions that should be asked, the Emperor let Shen Yu leave the palace.

Because there were still court affairs to be dealt with, the emperor went directly to the imperial study, and he ordered Zhou Chengren to go to Yuxiu Palace and inform him about the marriage.

Right now, he still has a lot of things to do. The Shen family is Su Qingning's uncle's family. She must be very willing to help the Shen family take care of it. .

After receiving the order, Zhou Chengren came to Yuxiu Palace, and Su Qingning was very happy to know that the emperor was about to bestow a marriage. After Zhou Chengren left, he sent someone to Shen's residence to fetch the birthday horoscopes of Shen Yu and Yue Ling. Let Qin Tianjian choose an auspicious day.
