Chapter 249 I heard that the emperor's brother married a wife?
Back then, the reason why Emperor Zhao sent Shen Chuhan to Liang Country as a hostage was due to his own selfish motives.Although he only dotes on Concubine Xiao Gui, he dislikes Shen Chuhan very much.

Emperor Zhao was able to sit on the throne of God back then because he had gone through a bloody storm, so his abilities were naturally outstanding, and his ability to judge people was of course very accurate.He has long seen that Shen Chuhan is not a creature in the pond, nor is he an obedient person.At that time, Concubine Xiao Gui died of illness, and the entire Zhao Kingdom had no one who could restrain him. Given time, once his wings had matured, it would be too late to restrain him.

However, in his capacity, he couldn't attack him blatantly. It just so happened that the war with the Liang Kingdom had just ended, so he came up with a way to expel Shen Chuhan from the Zhao Kingdom in a legitimate manner.

The prince of one country went to another country as a hostage. It is needless to say how big the gap is. If the heart can hardly bear it, it may be ruined like this.Taking a step back, even if he managed to survive till the day when he came back, by that time Zhao Kingdom had been reshuffled and there was no place for him to stay, no matter how strong his personal ability was, it would be of no avail.

Besides, he also knew that he was not the only one who didn't like Shen Chuhan.

Those who have direct interest entanglements with Shen Chuhan are always worried that he will love Shen Chuhan because of Concubine Xiao, so Emperor Zhao didn't expose it, just sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, wanting to be the one who reaps the benefits of the fisherman.

Sure enough, he was right about those people.

As soon as Shen Chuhan left Zhao Kingdom, those people couldn't sit still.

Yes, like Jun Che, he also understood who instigated the endless pursuit of Shen Chuhan back then.There are only two princes who are about the same age as Shen Chuhan, the second prince Jun Che and the fourth prince Jun Han. They are both strong contenders for the crown prince.If Shen Chuhan is eliminated, it will be the two of them who will benefit.

Therefore, there were actually two people behind the scenes, Jun Che's mother concubine Cheng Zhaoyi died of illness a few years ago, and the other was Jun Han's mother concubine De concubine Shu Yue.Now that Cheng Zhaoyi is dead and Jun Han is also dead, isn't it the best time for Shen Chuhan to come back?
It seems that although others are in Liang country, they have been paying attention to the situation in Zhao country.

Thinking of it this way, my heart suddenly became vigilant.

Clearing his throat, he said, "I have also heard about what happened back then, and the third prince was also a victim. You don't need to mention this matter again."

Seeing Emperor Zhao's apparently peaceful tone, Shen Chuhan twitched his lips sarcastically.

He hadn't planned that Emperor Zhao would seek justice from him. If he and Xiao Zhuo hadn't discovered what happened in time and followed suit, there would have been no such person as Jun Shu in the world at this time.

He had already seen through the face of Emperor Zhao, so he never had any hope.If there is no hope, there will be no disappointment.

It's just that, hearing this in the ears of others, it has another meaning.

In their view, Emperor Zhao's words clearly recognized Shen Chuhan's identity again, and meant to defend him.

The faces of those courtiers who secretly supported Jun Che couldn't help but feel the crisis.

As soon as Shen Chuhan returned to the country, Emperor Zhao favored him. From this point of view, Jun Che's crown prince position was getting more and more precarious.

And Jun Che, one of the protagonists, was not in a very happy mood at this time. Even so, he still tried his best to keep his face calm.After all, Emperor Zhao had already promised him that he would test relatives with blood, and you are not joking, he still believed in Emperor Zhao on this point.

Sure enough, Emperor Zhao paused, and his cold eyes swept over the faces of all the ministers one by one. Fang lowered his voice and continued, "However, I also understand the concerns of all the dear ones. In order to convince the public and to truly prove Shu'er I will choose a date to do a blood test with him. When the result comes out, everything will come to light."

Then, looking at Shen Chuhan, "Shu'er, what do you think?"

A mockery flashed in Shen Chuhan's eyes.

He did enough superficial work to ask himself, in this case, do he have the choice to refuse?
Looking up, his expression was calm, "What the father said is reasonable, everything is arranged by the father.",

"Okay." Emperor Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, "Where are you dear ones?"

The ministers did not expect that Emperor Zhao and Shen Chuhan would be willing to drop blood to test their relatives, they were stunned, looked at each other for a few times, and did not dare to speak again.Emperor Zhao had already mentioned this point, if they questioned it again, it would be a slap in the face of Emperor Zhao.Although those courtiers in Junche's camp supported Junche secretly, but now Zhaoguo is still in charge of Emperor Zhao, so naturally they dare not openly disobey him.

"Alright, since everyone has no objections, Wang Xi—"

"The servant is here." Wang Xi stepped forward to answer.

"You arrange this matter as soon as possible."

"Yes, the servant obeys the order." Wang Xi agreed, and retreated behind Emperor Zhao.

This matter is considered to be over for the time being.

Regardless of whether everyone likes it or not, and regardless of their attitude towards Shen Chuhan, he once again stood above the Zhao Kingdom's court as a Junshu.

And his return has reshuffled the Chaotang of Zhao Kingdom, which had calmed down, and it will also set off a bloody storm again within the scope of the four countries.

*
After the court, all the ministers walked out of the hall in twos and threes.

Shen Chuhan was the last one, and he was not in a hurry to get out of the palace, his expression was so calm that there was no wave.

Although other things were said in the court, the core of the discussions of the ministers was naturally still on him. From time to time, the ministers turned their heads to look at him, and all kinds of eyes fell on him.

Shen Chuhan raised his eyebrows meaninglessly.

Before he came back, he knew what kind of road he was going to face.But, he didn't panic.

Among these people, there are only a small number of people who are truly convinced by Jun Che, and most of them are holding a wait-and-see attitude.Although he was not in Zhao Kingdom in the past few years, his influence had already penetrated into every aspect of Zhao Kingdom. It would be a piece of cake to contend with Jun Che in the court.

Seeing the crowd gradually dissipate, he moved his feet and walked towards the outside of the hall.

When he left the hall, he caught a glimpse of someone waiting at the side.

There was a sneer in his eyes, and he walked straight past him without stopping.

"Shen... Junshu!" There was an exasperated roar from behind.

Only then did Shen Chuhan stop and turn around, his cold eyes paused on Jun Che's face, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his voice was cold, "What's the matter with the second prince?"

Jun Che stared at him closely, with anger in his eyes, he lowered his voice and said in a deep voice, "Jun Shu, don't get complacent too early."

Shen Chuhan chuckled lightly, "Where did the second prince see that I was proud? When the time comes, the second prince will wait here on purpose just to give me this warning? You really bothered the second prince."

Jun Che's pupils shrank, his face a little embarrassed.

Soon, he raised his eyes again and frowned, "Jun Shu, I'm also your imperial brother. Is this how you treat your elder brother?"

The sarcasm at the corner of Shen Chuhan's mouth was even worse, "Now the second prince is putting on airs of his elder brother, didn't he not recognize my identity before?"

"You..." Jun Che was choked up by him and had nothing to say, and there was a gloomy look in his eyes.

Glaring at Shen Chuhan fiercely, Jun Che flicked his sleeves and left with resentment.

Shen Chuhan withdrew his gaze coldly, unmoved, and continued walking towards the palace gate.He is now temporarily living in the Chengwen Hall, but the Prince's Mansion is already under construction, and it is an expansion of the former Prince's Mansion, so it won't take long to complete it.

After being so delayed by Jun Che, the ministers on the way out of the palace had almost left, occasionally two or three couples of palace people passed by, and those who recognized his identity did not dare to neglect, and stopped to salute one after another.

After walking for a short distance, I suddenly heard someone calling "Brother Three Emperors" behind me.

Listen to the voice, clear and soft, it is a female voice.

Shen Chuhan frowned, stopped and turned around to look.

Appearing in sight was a woman in a water-colored dress, followed by two maids of honor.Her brows are elegant and indifferent, her expression is peaceful, and there is excitement in her flickering eyes, like a narcissus in bud, slowly walking towards this side.

Looking at her somewhat familiar face, Shen Chuhan's pupils flickered, and he remembered who it was.

Zhao Kingdom's sixth ranked Yun and Di Ji, Jun Wan.

Emperor Zhao favored sons over daughters, and he only liked the prince and not the princess. Li Cairen, the mother and concubine of Yun and Diji, was of low status. He made an excuse and fell into the limbo.

Yun and Diji are not favored by Emperor Zhao, and her mother's family has no strength, so she can't make any splashes in the Zhao Kingdom's palace. Compared with the famous emperors and concubines in the other three kingdoms, she really has nothing to do in Yunqing Continent presence.

Seeing Shen Chuhan turn around, Jun Wan's eyes lit up, her pace quickened a little, and she walked in front of Shen Chuhan with a blessing, her voice trembling, "Jun Wan met Brother San Huang."

Shen Chuhan's eyes were still cool, he stroked her face, and said coldly, "You don't need to be too polite."

When Jun Wan got up, there was already a glint of water in his eyes.She looked at Shen Chuhan without blinking, with mixed emotions in her eyes, as if she was about to cry in the next second, she stared at Shen Chuhan for a moment, then Fang choked up and said, "Brother Sanhuang...you...do you still remember me? ?”

Shen Chuhan nodded, "Mmm" and said, "Yun He." Turning his eyes slightly, he asked, "Did Yun He ask me for something?"

Hearing Shen Chuhan's familiar yet unfamiliar voice call out his name again, Jun Wan's emotions couldn't be stretched immediately, tears fell down, and he choked up, "I knew Brother Sanhuang would definitely not Something will happen! I knew it!"

The long eyelashes trembled slightly, and the eyes were full of light, crying like a pear blossom with rain, attracting the frequent glances of passers-by.

Shen Chuhan was a little embarrassed.

When he was still in the Zhaoguo Palace, he had more contact with Junwan than other princes and concubines.People in the palace used to praise the high and depress the low. At that time, Li Cairen had been thrown into the cold palace, and Jun Wan himself was not favored, so it was quite difficult to live in the palace.

Concubine Xiao Gui was kind-hearted, seeing that she was being bullied at a young age, she couldn't bear it, so she picked her up to sit in her own palace from time to time.With Concubine Xiao's protection, those people's attitudes towards Jun Wan were restrained.Because of this, Shen Chuhan and Jun Wan met several times in Concubine Xiao's palace, and gradually became familiar with each other.

It's just that, after seeing each other for more than ten years, Shen Chuhan is also a cold-tempered person, and those friendships back then have disappeared from his mind. Seeing Junwan suddenly crying so affectionately, he didn't know how to react for a while.

After crying for a while, seeing that Shen Chuhan didn't say a word, Jun Wan was probably a little embarrassed, choked up and stopped crying, took out the handkerchief in his sleeve to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes, Fang raised his eyes and smiled embarrassedly at Shen Chuhan, "Long time no see Brother Sanhuang, I was too excited for a while, and made Brother Sanhuang laugh."

Shen Chuhan twitched the corners of his lips, nodded slightly, looked at her and said, "Do you have anything to do with me?"

Jun Wan lowered her head, clutching the corner of her clothes a little bit shyly, "It's nothing important, it's just that when Brother Sanhuang entered Lindu last time, he didn't find a chance to talk to Brother Sanhuang. Brother Sanhuang went to court, so I thought of coming over to have a word with Brother Sanhuang."

Shen Chuhan raised his eyebrows in a daze.

There were three carriages in the convoy to meet him when he went out of the city that day. Emperor Zhao and Jun Che were sitting in the first two carriages. He didn't pay attention to the third carriage, which turned out to be Jun Wan.

However, Emperor Zhao had always disliked Jun Wan, so he agreed to accompany her that day. It seems that Jun Wan must have begged for a long time before getting Emperor Zhao's consent.

only--

Although Junwan wanted to see Shen Chuhan so eagerly, but to Shen Chuhan, he didn't feel this way at all.

To him, Jun Wan is nothing more than the little imperial girl whom he had seen a few times back then. After so many years, the memory of Zhao Guo has long been indifferent in his heart, so how can he have special memories of Jun Wan?

Nodded "Yeah", the tone was still cold, "It turns out that you were the one sitting in the carriage behind last time, thank you for your hard work."

Junwan pursed her lips and smiled, her eyes were bright, and she said regretfully, "I originally wanted to go over to say hello to Brother Sanhuang, but Eunuch Wang said that the atmosphere was not right at the time, and told me not to go over to avoid getting angry."

"The prince is right."

"Brother Three Emperors." Jun Wan bit his lips, "Brother Two Emperors made things difficult for you, didn't you?"

Shen Chuhan's tone was light, "It's not really difficult."

There was a bit of eagerness in Jun Wan's tone, she looked around, took two steps forward, got closer to Shen Chuhan, and said in a low voice, "Brother Three Emperors, Brother Two Emperors was bound to win the crown prince, you Now that you have come back, you have become his strong opponent, he must regard you as a thorn in his side, you must be careful."

Shen Chuhan nodded, "I will."

Seeing that Shen Chuhan's expression remained calm, Junwan was a little disappointed, Yingying looked at Shen Chuhan earnestly, "Brother Sanhuang doesn't remember Junwan much anymore?"

Shen Chuhan frowned helplessly.

After all, it is a person who has grown up watching people's eyes, but his emotions are still so sensitive.

Although he knew Jun Wan's disappointment, Shen Chuhan didn't have the heart to coax her, and nodded slightly, "I have been away from Zhao Country for more than ten years, and now that I am back, everything is different."

This is an indirect admission that I really don't remember much about Jun Wan.

Hearing Shen Chuhan's subtext, Jun Wan's brows and eyes suddenly collapsed, and her long eyelashes were drawn back, with obvious disappointment on her face.

After a while, she raised her head again, "No...it doesn't matter, I'm already very happy that brother Sanhuang can come back."

Shen Chuhan smiled, and thanked him without much emotion.

"Brother Sanhuang has lived these years..." Jun Wan blinked her eyelashes, and then continued to speak, but before she finished speaking, she seemed to feel that this sentence sounded a bit inappropriate, so she paused and changed to talking off topic.

She glanced at Shen Chuhan cautiously, and said with a complicated expression, "I heard that Brother Sanhuang has already married a wife?"
