Chapter 290 Persuasion
Song Qinghuan was startled, swallowed what he wanted to say, and looked at Shen Chuhan in a little astonishment.She didn't expect Shen Chuhan to agree so easily this time?
"Ashu, you...you agree?" She said hesitantly and uncertainly.

Shen Chuhan smiled, lowered his head, and his gentle eyes fell on the face of the little princess in his arms, "Only by solving these worries, can the worrying situation be truly safe."

Song Qinghuan stared fixedly at Shen Chuhan.

His eyebrows drooped, and the coldness between his eyebrows and eyes receded, leaving only the jade-like warmth.

In the past, his Nilin was himself, but now, besides himself, his Nilin also has Youyou.Such a warm scene was once an unattainable fantasy for her, but now, it really existed before her eyes.

My heart was full of emotions, and my eyes were cloudy with water vapor.

Although Ji Liuyun brought Shen Chuhan the medicine developed by Ye Wen last time, the Gu poison in Shen Chuhan's body could not be suppressed for a lifetime after all, if it was not completely cured, it would explode one day sooner or later.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help frowning, and my heart became more and more anxious.

After Ji Liuyun and Ye Luo are rescued, she must not be distracted by other things.Right now, the most important thing for her is to get rid of the poison in Shen Chuhan's body, otherwise, even if he tried his best to win the throne, even if he tried his best to rule the world, what's the point of all this?
"Awan?" Seeing Song Qinghuan's pensive expression, Shen Chuhan handed the little princess to Shen Xing, Ruyu's fingertips caressed her cheek, with a slight coolness, "Awan, what are you thinking?"

"Nothing." Song Qinghuan shook his head.At this time, she didn't want Shen Chuhan to be distracted, and after Wuhen Gong and his party came back, she would have a good talk with Shen Chuhan again.

Shen Chuhan stared at her for a moment, with a warm expression on his brows and eyes.He got up, "Let's go out and talk first."

The two went out of the inner room and sat down in the study.

"Luoluo and Zishu can't delay, we have to set off as soon as possible." Shen Chuhan looked at Song Qinghuan who was opposite, with a serious tone on his face.

"I understand." Song Qinghuan nodded, "You set a time, I will get ready as soon as possible in the next two days."

"Mubai, I will stay, one can protect Youyou's safety, and the other can help me monitor the movement in Beijing." Shen Chuhan said.

Song Qinghuan nodded approvingly, "I won't take Liuyue and Shen Xing with me anymore, I feel more at ease with them taking care of you." After a slight pause, she looked up, "Where's Xiao Zhuo?"

"Xiao Zhuo has just established his foundation in the Iron Armored Guards recently, so it is not appropriate to make big moves. Besides, he entered the barracks early, and he is better at arranging troops. He doesn't have much experience in fighting in the rivers and lakes, so this time, let him Staying in Lindu is also a good way to take care of each other with Mu Bai." Shen Chuhan has never been a procrastination, and in a short time, he has already made a decision.

Song Qinghuan had no objection and nodded in response.

In this way, the matter of the two going to Wuhen Palace has been settled in this way. Next, as long as they agree with Emperor Zhao, they can leave soon.

It was early morning that day, Shen Chuhan did not go back to the residence, but went to Emperor Zhao's bedroom.

Emperor Zhao, who had just changed his dragon robe, heard that Shen Chuhan was begging to see him, frowned almost invisibly, and said in a deep voice, "Let him in."

The internal waiter who came in to inform said yes, and quickly retreated, not too ashamed, and Shen Chuhan's cold figure appeared at the entrance of the main hall.Sunlight poured into the palace from behind him, and he stood against the light, his face was shrouded in shadow, and the expression on his face could not be seen clearly.A distance away from the main hall, Emperor Zhao could feel a sense of dignified oppression rushing towards his face.

He didn't like this feeling very much.

Although on the surface he always had a pleasant appearance towards Shen Chuhan, in the bottom of Emperor Zhao's heart, he still had unconcealable dislike and guard against Shen Chuhan.He knew from the time when he was the prime minister of Liang country that Shen Chuhan was never a thing in the pool.

These days, he's actually been acting reassuring.

Except for the occasional political confrontation with Jun Che, his performance at other times is completely unmistakable.Even if he sent people to stare at him deliberately, they couldn't find any reason for him.

But the more this happened, the more flustered Emperor Zhao became. He always felt that there was a turbulent undercurrent hidden under such a calm appearance, and it might erupt suddenly at any time.And at that time, he would definitely be caught off guard.

When he was distracted, he heard the footsteps getting closer, one after another, echoing in the empty hall.

He raised his head and looked at Shen Chuhan.

Shen Chuhan walked up to him, saluted and greeted him, "I will see my father."

Emperor Zhao suppressed the complicated emotions in his heart, looked at him with a calm face, and said unhurriedly, "Shu'er came to see me at this time, what's the matter?"

Shen Chuhan nodded, "I do have something to ask, and I want to ask Father to agree."

Emperor Zhao glanced at him, seeing his calm eyes and calm expression, he thought about it in his heart, and said with a smile, "Cai Shu'er didn't say anything in the early court, so it looks like it's a private matter?"

"Father is wise." Shen Chuhan complimented in a cool tone.

"Oh?" Emperor Zhao raised his eyebrows with interest, "Tell me, what's the matter?"

Shen Chuhan's black eyes were fixed on his face, his expression was still calm, "Father must have heard the news of Emperor Yu's death a few days ago."

Hearing Shen Chuhan mention this topic, the smile on the corner of Emperor Zhao's mouth gradually disappeared, staring at Shen Chuhan without blinking, squeezed out the word "um" from his tightly closed lips, his eyes darkened.

Naturally, he got the news of the turmoil in Yu's country very early on. Originally, he still had the intention to take advantage of the chaos and send troops, but Liang and Yu were allies before and got married again. If they sent troops to Yu, Liang would However, if they took advantage of the opportunity to invade the northern border, they would be too busy to take care of themselves.Second, Song Qinghuan's identity is here, and Shen Chuhan regards her as more important than his own lifeblood. If he learns that he wants to send troops to Yuguo, he will definitely obstruct him in every possible way.And for the time being, he didn't want to be an enemy of Shen Chuhan.

After weighing the pros and cons, this idea gradually faded away.But she didn't think that Shen Chuhan would take the initiative to bring up this issue today.

The reason why he showed vigilance was because he felt that from Shen Chuhan's standpoint, he would never bring up the issue of sending troops to Yuguo, and he might even ask himself to send troops to support him.

Shen Chuhan had a panoramic view of Emperor Zhao's expression, and a sneer flickered at the corner of his mouth.

"Ah Wan has been depressed for a few days after hearing the news. My son saw it in his eyes, very impatient, but helpless." Shen Chuhan spoke in a slow tone, word by word.

Emperor Zhao looked at him with an uncertain expression, waiting for his next words.

"Yesterday after my minister returned to the mansion, Ah Wan told me that she wanted to go back to Yu Country to see his father one last time."

After saying this, Shen Chuhan stopped talking, and looked at Emperor Zhao deeply, as if observing his reaction.

A look of surprise appeared in Emperor Zhao's eyes.

He didn't expect that Shen Chuhan came here today to talk about it with him.He didn't even think that Empress Wuyang wanted to go back to the country to see Emperor Zhao for the last time?He remembered that the father-daughter relationship between Emperor Yu and Empress Wuyang seemed to be just fine on the surface.After all, Emperor Yu had been indifferent to Empress Wuyang because of the mysterious disappearance of Empress Wuyang's mother and concubine back then. It was not until a few years ago that the relationship between the two had a tendency to break the ice. up?

He was already prejudiced against Shen Chuhan, so he didn't quite believe what he said at this time.However, there is still work to be done to save face. He raised his head to look at Shen Chuhan, sighed, and his face became serious, "I was shocked when I heard about Yuguo. I didn't expect that Emperor Yu would actually..."

After a pause, his thoughts changed, and his face showed concern, "Diji Wuyang lost her loved ones, and it is inevitable that she will be in a bad mood at this time. You can enlighten her a little bit. As for the matter of going to Yu Country..." He seemed to be in a difficult tone, " Going to Yu Country, the mountains are high and the water is far away, the journey will take a lot of time, and when Wuyang Emperor Ji returns to Yu Country, Emperor Yu should have already been buried in the soil, so let’s let this matter go.”

Emperor Zhao couldn't figure out why Song Qinghuan wanted to go to Yu Country, but what Shen Chuhan wanted to do, he always felt that it would be detrimental to him in the end, so he subconsciously opposed it.

Shen Chuhan shook his head, "Father, Ah Wan has made up her mind, and I can't persuade her."

Emperor Zhao frowned.

What does Shen Chuhan mean?Did Empress Wuyang have to return to Jian'an?

Seeing Shen Chuhan's persistent face, the suspicion in his eyes became even more serious, and he always felt that Shen Chuhan was plotting something.Pursing his lips, he was unwilling to accept Chuhan's intentions. After thinking for a while, he spoke again, "Shu'er, the situation in the four countries is not very stable now. There are too many dangers on the way from Lindu back to Jian'an. I think, You won't worry about the safety of Empress Wuyang either."

He knew that Song Qinghuan had always been Shen Chuhan's favorite, and he had said everything to this point, so he should be able to understand the hidden meaning in his words, right?
But he didn't want to, Shen Chuhan nodded solemnly, "Father is right, my son is really worried. But I don't want Ah Wan to be sad, so I want to accompany Ah Wan back to Yu Country to express my condolences, and please ask Father Grace."

Emperor Zhao was stunned.

So the purpose of Shen Chuhan's coming here today is to let him agree to accompany Song Qinghuan back to Yu Country?

Which one is this singing?
He frowned barely noticeably, and said in a probing tone, "Shu'er, you said...you want to accompany Wu Yang Diji back to Yu Kingdom?"

Shen Chuhan nodded, with a gloomy tone, "I was still the prime minister of the Liang Kingdom when I married Ah Wan. Now that I have regained my status, it is also appropriate to accompany Ah Wan back to the Kingdom of Yu. Although Emperor Yu passed away, the Kingdom of Yu is still Ah Wan's hometown is now crowned by the Crown Prince of Yu Kingdom, and his attitude towards Zhao Kingdom is not very clear, so this minister may take this opportunity to investigate."

"But... Yu Country is currently experiencing civil strife. It is too dangerous for you to go back at this time."

"Rebellious ministers and thieves, don't be afraid." Shen Chuhan didn't seem to take the rebellion in Emperor Zhao's mouth seriously, with a cold and disdainful expression on his face, "When Awan and I arrive in Jian'an, I believe that the new emperor of Yuguo has already dealt with it. The domestic turmoil is just a good opportunity for us to express our sincerity."

Hearing what he said, Emperor Zhao was really moved by the persuasion.

Turning his eyes, he said again, "However, if you leave Lindu now, who will share the political affairs in my hands?"

Shen Chuhan raised his eyes without hesitation, his face was as clean as a spring breeze, but the words he said were a bit cold, "Second brother is eager to try, isn't it good for the father to give it to him? And..."

His tone paused, seeming to be even colder, "I know that there are quite a few people who have impeached me recently. Although I believe in the truth that the pure will be turbid and the turbid will be turbid, but I also know that the rumors are terrible. So this time, Just let me give myself a chance to take a short break, and reassure those who feel that my motives are impure."

This sentence can be said to be worthy of Emperor Zhao's heart.

He himself has always been jealous of Shen Chuhan. In order to check and balance Jun Che's ambitions, he had to hand over some political affairs to him, but at the same time, he was very worried that Shen Chuhan would take the opportunity to develop his power, so he always A conflicted state of mind.

At this time, Shen Chuhan's request gave him another possibility to solve the problem.

If Shen Chuhan leaves the court of Zhaoguo for a period of time, the power and prestige he has finally built up in the court will definitely weaken, and the threat to himself will also be reduced.But at the same time, because of his status as a prince, he still acts as a constraint on Jun Che, preventing him from acting rashly.

Thinking of it this way, my mind was completely activated.

The corners of Shen Chuhan's eyes were slightly cold, and he looked at Emperor Zhao, but his eyes were already sincere, "I beg your father to help you! I don't want Ah Wan to be depressed all the time."

"But, if the two of you go to Jian'an, what will Yijia do?" Emperor Zhao turned his eyes a few times and asked again.

Shen Chuhan frowned, but his smile was a bit cold.

"Father also said, but the road to Jian'an is long and bumpy. Yijia is too young, so she won't go with us." He knew that when Emperor Zhao asked this question, he had already agreed in his heart.

Sure enough, Emperor Zhao heaved a sigh of relief almost invisible, and took a deep look at Shen Chuhan, "Since you insist, then... I have no reason to stop it. Well, I agree."

As long as Yijia stays in Lindu, she is like a most reliable proton, Shen Chuhan and Song Qinghuan will definitely not dare to play tricks.

"My son, thank you, Father, for your success." Shen Chuhan's expression returned to calm, and he cupped his hands in a salute.

"When are you going to leave?"

"It's not too late, it's only two days."

"Okay." Emperor Zhao said in a deep tone, "If that's the case, you should go back home and prepare well. I will arrange other things, so you don't have to worry."

After thanking Emperor Zhao again, Shen Chuhan turned around and strode out of Emperor Zhao's bedroom.

Watching his back disappear, the smile on the corner of Emperor Zhao's mouth also disappeared, and his expression became more and more indifferent.

After staring coldly at the door for a while, he came back to his senses and walked towards the inner hall of the bedroom.Just as Wang Xi was about to follow, he heard a cold voice, "You don't need to follow, let everyone stay outside, and don't enter without my order."

Wang Xi bowed in response and stopped walking.

Emperor Zhao entered the inner hall, went straight to the row of bookshelves inside, held the floor-to-ceiling Ru kiln porcelain vase next to it and turned it, the bookshelves parted to the two sides, revealing the dark hole inside.

The sun came in, and a beam of light just shot at the entrance of the cave. Looking through the flickering light, one could see that inside the dark cave was a staircase going down. It was unknown where it led.
