Chapter 148 Now even Jiang Ci'an is more important than him?
Chapter 148 Now even Jiang Ci'an is more important than him?
After hearing what Shen Changle said, Shen Changning had no choice but to give up.
But I feel reluctant in my heart.
In the blink of an eye, Changle has grown up so much!
Now that she's pregnant, it seems like it would be difficult to keep her around for a few more years...
He sighed softly, stroked her long hair, and said reluctantly:
"That's fine. My brother will choose a prime location for you and build a princess's residence according to the specifications of a temporary palace."
Seeing that his heart was bleeding, Shen Changle smiled with a relaxed look.
"My royal brother is tired of Changle and wants to kick her out of the palace?"
"What's the matter!"
Shen Changning smiled bitterly, still feeling reluctant.
"If possible, my brother wants to support you for the rest of your life."
"Then why are you in such a hurry to build the princess's mansion? I haven't lived in the palace long enough!"
As she said this, she put her arm around Shen Changning affectionately.
Swaying gently, speaking coquettishly in a soft voice.
"With the war imminent and winter upon us, it's only natural that Treasury Bank must focus on the front lines first—"
Whether it's food, winter clothes, weapons... it all requires a lot of silver!
Therefore, there is no rush to build the Princess's Palace. It won't be too late to build it after the war is won."
Seeing that Changle actually put the overall situation first, Shen Tingyu and Shen Changning were very relieved.
Keep praising:
"Changle has grown up."
Shen Changning even took her into his arms and patted her shoulder gently.
"My sister can now share my worries! I am very relieved..."
Shen Changle chuckled.
I was thinking to myself, it won’t be too late to comfort you once you know about the Firearms Battalion!
The carriage moved forward steadily and finally approached the capital.
Several people had their last dinner in the car.
Shen Tingyu asked Jiang Ci'an solemnly:
"Jiang Ci'an, have you really decided to join the battle for Qi?"
Jiang Ci'an put down his chopsticks and looked up indifferently.
"Your Highness has forgotten? I am now a citizen of Qi."
Hearing him say this, Shen Changle quietly took his hand under the table.
Jiang Ci'an felt her uneasiness.
She looked back and smiled gently, then held hands with him.
Shen Tingyu saw everything and took a deep breath.
He took out a dragon talisman from somewhere.
Hand it to the maid serving beside and present it to Jiang Ci'an.
Seeing everyone's confusion, he touched his nose deeply.
Without even looking at Shen Changning who was half-raising his brows, he continued to explain:
"When the late emperor abdicated, he left behind two armies:
One team protects the emperor's ascension to the throne and guards against civil unrest, controlled by a dragon talisman;
The other branch will be left to Changle to protect her when she gets married and will be controlled by Feng Fu.
No one except this king knows about these two personal guards, and now..."
He finally looked at the confused Shen Changning and nodded slightly.
"The Emperor is now in control of the imperial court. The personal soldiers controlled by the Dragon Talisman are currently useless. It would be better to use them to respond to emergencies and protect the country."
Jiang Ci'an looked at the dragon talisman and frowned slightly.
Is the Regent going to let him lead the personal soldiers left by the late emperor to the emperor?
This……
He really doesn't treat him as an outsider!
He looked at Shen Changle hesitantly, asking for her opinion.
Shen Changle also felt something was wrong and looked up at Shen Tingyu.
"Didn't the Imperial Uncle say that there was a Phoenix Talisman? Why not give the Phoenix Talisman to Ci'an and keep the Dragon Talisman to protect the Imperial Brother?"
"How about that?"
Without waiting for Shen Tingyu to speak, Shen Changning was the first to refuse.
"How can I use your people when my brother is here?"
Shen Tingyu also echoed:
"If Changle married an ordinary Qi person, then perhaps both teams would be sent to the battlefield this time, but..."
He looked at Jiang Ci'an hesitantly, hiding his heavy thoughts.
"This unit is in your hands. You must maximize their value! Don't let them be easily damaged."
Seeing that he had made up his mind, Jiang Ci'an looked at the dragon talisman with lowered eyelashes.
He stood up and solemnly took it with both hands.
Bow and salute, then hold the dragon talisman to the level of your eyebrows.
"I will definitely live up to my trust."
Shen Changle watched them complete the handover, unconsciously holding his breath, tears welling up in his eyes.
I don't know if it was because he was moved that Jiang Ci'an finally won the emperor's uncle's approval;
Or I'm worried that he's about to lead his troops into battle and fight the enemy himself.
Seeing this, Shen Tingyu nodded slightly.
"Let's go to Wulipo, outside Beijing, to inspect the troops."
"Ah."
Jiang Ci'an stood up, and Shen Changle also stood up with him and helped him get out of the car.
As soon as I opened the car door, I heard Shen Changning's sarcastic voice behind me:
"I know nothing about the personal soldiers my father left me... Could they be the private soldiers raised by the Regent?"
Shen Tingyu was silent for a moment, then replied in a deep voice:
"Your Majesty thinks highly of me. The two armies have over 60,000 soldiers in total. How can I afford to support them?"
"Hmph, you don't have the ability..."
Hearing Shen Changning's sneer, Shen Changle looked at Jiang Ci'an helplessly.
With a light jump, he carried her down from the carriage.
Worriedly admonished:
"Wuli Slope is just ahead. This is your first time leading troops, so you must be careful in everything you do. You can't be too strict, but you can't lose your prestige either."
"Well, don't worry."
Jiang Ci'an held the back of Shen Changle's head and gave her a light kiss on the forehead.
"I'll come back to see you once I've arranged things at the military camp."
"it is good."
Shen Changle blinked her big, bright eyes.
She let him hug her tightly for a while, and then watched him leave with the sleepy Zhu Jiuxing.
He returned to the carriage, stuck his head in through the door, and only went in when he saw that the noise had stopped.
Before entering the house, she would first check whether her brother and uncle were arguing. This had almost become a habit for her since she was a child...
But it's also fortunate that she is so well-behaved, lovely, considerate and thoughtful.
Although the emperor's uncle's life was hard, it has become much better in recent years.
Shen Changle walked in with a smile, stood in front of Shen Changning, and tiptoed slightly.
"We're almost in the capital. Brother, could you please return to the palace first? The Imperial Palace and the Regent's Palace are in different directions."
Seeing that she had ordered him to leave, Shen Changning pretended to be aggrieved and complained with his mouth drooping:
"It would be fine if my imperial sister didn't accompany me back to the palace, but she actually started to force me out of the car!"
"Oh, my Royal Brother! You know... I've always hated the way those courtiers politely kneel and bow!
Soon, at the gate of the capital, all civil and military officials will be welcoming the emperor back to the palace.
My uncle and I will not get involved! We will enter the city after everyone has dispersed."
Seeing her self-righteous look, Shen Changning nodded at her forehead helplessly and lovingly.
She pushed him to the door, and he looked at her belly worriedly and told her:
"While taking care of the Emperor's uncle, you must also take care of your own health, understand? If anything goes wrong with you, ten regents wouldn't be enough to compensate you!"
Shen Tingyu: ...
Nothing more.
What's wrong with you guys?
Is it possible...
Now even Jiang Ci'an is more important than him?
You heartless brat!
Just not as caring as my daughter!!
Shen Changle followed Shen Changning's triumphant look and glanced at Shen Tingyu, who had a gloomy face.
Push him away helplessly:
"Alright, alright, it's getting late, my royal brother, please go back to the palace!"
She really couldn't understand!
The emperor's brother obviously cares about the emperor's uncle as well, so why does he have to make him angry like this!
The emperor's uncle is so old, can't he be a little more considerate of him?
On the contrary, it is the Emperor's uncle...
She always tolerated and tolerant her royal brother.
Even though she was so angry, she still nodded and saluted him:
"Congratulations to the emperor."
Poor uncle...
