Is Shizi ill today?

Chapter 954 In her face, I still won't do too much
"Cheng Engong, go in."

The shrill voice carried a hint of contempt.

A thin layer of sweat broke out from Shen Guangmao's palms, he bowed his waist, and stepped into this resplendent and resplendent hall.

"The humble minister kowtowed to the emperor."

He saluted very respectfully and knocked his head to the ground.

Xia Houjing looked down at him for a while, but didn't let him get up immediately.

The surroundings were silent and extremely depressing.

Shen Guangmao's heart seemed to jump into his throat, even though he wanted to pretend to be calm and told himself that this was just a simple summons, but His Majesty's attitude made him have to think more, did the rebellious girl blow the pillow again? Wind, or those things he did...

The more he thought about it, he was like an ant on a hot pot, restless, and as if he had stepped into a quagmire, a cloud of death that was close to suffocation enveloped him.

"How old is Cheng Engong's young master?"

A low, lazy voice sounded above his head.

Shen Guangmao's heart trembled, his body was wet with sweat, and he felt cool, he quickly replied: "I'm already four years old."

"The Shen family has a great business. It has been an imperial merchant since the generation of the first ancestor. Now this family business may not be exhausted for several generations."

"Thanks to His Majesty's love, the Shen family has always been very grateful."

"is it?"

Xia Houjing casually knocked twice on the dragon case.

This slight sound seemed to knock on Shen Guangmao's heart. Although he is an idler, he has to go to him every morning. Naturally, he also knows the young emperor's iron and blood methods, destroying his family, cutting grass and roots...

His breathing became heavy, and the uneasiness in his heart gradually expanded.

"Does the Shen family resent me for giving the Cao family the position of the imperial merchant?"

Shen Guangmao was shocked, and hurriedly said: "I don't dare, Your Majesty has his own will, I don't dare to speak rashly, it must be that I did not do well, and I will definitely change in the future."

"It's good that you can understand." The sneer in Xia Houjing's eyes turned into sharpness, with a slight smile: "Although I don't like your Shen family, Qianqiao is your daughter after all. On the face of it, I still won’t do too much.”

Shen Guangmao quickly replied: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."

"But I don't want her to be wronged," Xia Houjing said quietly: "She is your first daughter, and it stands to reason that this bastard should not overshadow her. The Shen family's property, you, a father, should It’s what’s in your heart.”

"I understand!" Shen Guangmao responded immediately.

"Well," Xia Houjing's face became better now, "Someone told you that you and the Huainan prince have gotten close recently, is there anything wrong?"

Shen Guangmao's heart sank, and he quickly denied it: "No, my minister's loyalty can be proved by heaven and earth, there must be someone who slandered it, and please the emperor to see clearly!"

"Of course I don't believe it either." Xia Houjing sneered lightly, his eyes were calm and cold: "I will send someone to investigate this matter, and I will definitely make my benefactor innocent by then."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Go down."

Shen Guangmao stood up tremblingly, turned around and backed out.

When he came out, the sun was shining outside, his face was stern, and there was no warmth in his heart, so he walked out quickly.

Shen family, Fulan Courtyard.

Fang Ru patted the child and hummed a little song.

After the servant girl came in, she frowned and ordered: "Take care of the young master."

She got up and went out.

The man was pacing back and forth outside with his hands behind his back, and it was obvious that his expression was restless.
