Cultivating Immortality Begins with Selling Oneself

Chapter 184 Concession
Why?
Why? !

My daughter's life or death is uncertain.

Mrs. Shen's two children were able to stand in the Golden Palace and receive rewards from the emperor.

The queen was very unwilling.

The Duke of Zhenguo saw the change in the Queen's expression from the corner of his eye and knew at a glance what his daughter was thinking.

In a corner that His Majesty didn't notice, the Duke of Zhenguo quietly approached the Queen.

"Queen, be quiet!" the Duke of Zhenguo warned in a low voice. "You have no one to blame for your fate. Now that His Majesty hasn't taken his anger out on the Crown Prince, you can secretly be thankful!"

"Queen, if you continue to seek death, His Majesty will probably vent his anger on the Crown Prince, and you won't even have a chance to turn things around in the future."

Thinking of her own son, the queen had to swallow her anger no matter how unwilling she was.

My son has just been named the Crown Prince. I cannot be too ostentatious, nor can I make His Majesty feel disgusted with him.

When her own son ascends to that position, she will be the queen mother. Who will remember the evil things she did? Everyone will only look at her and flatter her.

Thinking of this, the queen barely suppressed her inner resentment.

Seeing that the queen's emotions had stabilized, the Duke of Zhenguo breathed a sigh of relief without saying a word, but he felt a surge of regret in his heart. He should not have sent his eldest daughter into the palace in the first place.

If it were my younger daughter, she would definitely not do such a thing.

The Duke of Zhenguo was thinking, since the queen had already fallen, who should he send to the palace next? Could he give birth to another prince?
According to news from the Imperial Medical Bureau, the emperor is currently recuperating.

"emperor."

The unanimous voice of Shen Fuyu and the other six people brought the Duke of Zhenguo's thoughts back.

"Good good!"

Three consecutive "good" words are enough to show how satisfied His Majesty is with Shen Fuyu and others.

The emperor was originally mentally prepared to clean up the mess.

It turned out that the mess had already been cleaned up. How could the emperor not be happy? Even Shen Fuyu and others were particularly pleased.

"Master Shangguan has truly taught some excellent students."

"At such a young age, you've already contributed to the country. What reward do you want?"

His eyes fell on a group of little girls and young men.

He is only fifteen or sixteen years old, but he can do such a thing. He is truly a talent.

Nowadays, there are all kinds of mixed forces in the court, and it is a bit difficult for the emperor to deal with them. The emperor urgently wants some new forces to break the deadlock. Shen Fuyu and others are the best choices. The emperor's eyes flashed.

Fortunately, he worked hard to take care of his body.

It should be able to last until Shen Fuyu and others come to the fore.

"Your Majesty, may I have a reward?" Shen Mengwu looked at the emperor with sparkling eyes.

The emperor felt a little more cheerful when the little girl looked at him like this. He stroked his beard and said with a smile, "Once a word is spoken, it cannot be taken back."

"Awu!"

Mrs. Shen tugged at Shen Mengwu's sleeve and winked at her, indicating that Shen Mengwu should not go too far.

"Mrs. Shen, there's no need to be too harsh on the child."

"Since the Shen sisters have done such a righteous act, it's only natural that they should ask for some reward."

The emperor glanced at the ministers and said slowly, "Some people, the older they get, the more worries they have. They are even worse than children."

The ministers looked at each other, but refused to respond to the emperor's words.

Shen Mengwu's voice broke the silence, and she stuck out her tongue playfully, "Your Majesty, we want a vacation."

"Wow, Your Majesty, I've been feeling a bit tired lately and don't want to go to school so soon. Your Majesty, could you please ask Master Shangguan to give us a few more days off?"

The girl's innocent words reached the emperor's ears, and the emperor was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Shen Mengwu's request to be so simple.

The emperor thought Shen Mengwu would take the opportunity to make some excessive demands, but he didn't expect that she just wanted a few days of vacation.

He is a child after all.

The emperor's hearty laughter reached Shen Mengwu's ears, "Of course." Meng Yuan and Shen Mengwu couldn't help but cheer, and the two of them clapped their hands.

"Shen Mengwu, that's great. I've been exhausted lately."

"Yeah, it's not easy."

The innocent voices of Meng Yuan and Shen Mengwu echoed in the Golden Palace, instantly dispelling the serious atmosphere.

"However, I want to know who first proposed the idea of ​​providing soup kitchens, and who first discovered the refugees' plight?"

The Shen sisters, Cheng Ziqi and others subconsciously wanted to look at Shen Fuyu.

Unexpectedly, Shen Fuyu spoke first.

"Your Majesty, it was Shen Mengwu and Shen Mengning who first brought it up."

"A few days ago, the two young ladies went out shopping and noticed that the number of beggars and refugees in the city was increasing. So they felt sympathy and discussed with Madam Shen and started collecting food in the city, distributing porridge, and purchasing food. All of these were done by the two young ladies themselves. Senior Brother Cheng, Senior Brother Lu, and Senior Sister Meng also joined in the porridge distribution."

"We do everything ourselves, without relying on others."

Although they didn't understand why Shen Fuyu wanted to give all the credit to them, the Shen sisters and others were tactful and did not expose Shen Fuyu.

Shen Fuyu breathed a sigh of relief, barely perceptible. She didn't know how many people had been affected by this. Although Madam Shen treated Shen Fuyu like her own daughter, Shen Fuyu's public identity was just a powerless maid. If all the credit for this matter fell on Shen Fuyu.

All forces will definitely make secret moves.

The Shen sisters are different.

After all, he is protected by the Shen family, so if others want to take action, they still need to consider whether they are qualified.

The most important thing is that Shen Fuyu doesn't want to be exposed to the public.

Shen Fuyu would rather not receive the reward and the emperor's attention than deny the credit.

"I don't understand these things. I think the two young ladies are working too hard. I would like to ask if the two young ladies are willing to pass on the matter."

"The two young ladies said that personally serving porridge to refugees gave them a sense of accomplishment."

Shen Fuyu smiled foolishly.

It gives people the impression of being simple, honest and inexperienced.

As expected, the emperor glanced at her and didn't pay much attention.

Instead, he was more interested in the Shen sisters, Lu Mingtang and others.

"Lu Mingtang."

"His Majesty."

Lu Mingtang saluted respectfully, his attitude and movements showing the demeanor of a great man.

Appropriate and generous.

The emperor nodded with satisfaction. The younger generation trained by the Lu family was indeed extremely outstanding.

"I heard that your family is very opposed to you giving out porridge."

Lu Mingtang nodded and did not hide anything.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, Mother feels that this kind of thing can be done by sending servants."

"I don't need to waste my time on this kind of thing."

“Thinking that’s time I could use to read.”

The emperor's dissatisfaction dissipated a little. Originally, the emperor thought that the Lu family was unwilling to get involved.

Only then did he try his best to get Lu Mingtang out of it.

After asking a few questions casually, the emperor's eyes fell on the Shen sisters.

The emperor specially sent people to inquire about the current situation of the four major families. The Shen family has no outstanding younger generations and has always been in a transparent stage, with a tendency to fall out of the four major families.

"Shen Mengning, the former genius girl."
