Chapter 773 I'll wait for you to come back
"What do you mean?" Lou Yulan didn't understand what she was saying. When she wanted to speak again, Shen Shuyi was already impatient.
Just as Qin Xin was about to ask him to see the guest off, Xie Jingchi had already spoken: "Fu Guang, see the guest off."
Xiao Tingshan had a gloomy expression. He looked at him deeply, then turned and left.
Zhao Baokun couldn't help but say, "It's so unlucky that I can run into this hypocrite anywhere!"
Shen Shuyi was thinking about Yan Song's matter.
Although Yan Song was an official in the court in his previous life, to her, he only served as a counselor.
In the beginning, he was indeed not tactful enough and thought some things too simply, but the methods he came up with always had their merits.
Sure enough, after not long, Yan Song figured out the trick, and she became more and more adept at using it.
Unfortunately, such a talent was eventually killed by Xiao Tingshan.
When Shen Shuyi thought of this, she felt a blockage in her heart. Every person she had tried so hard to win over was killed without hesitation by him because of personal grudges.
The more Shen Shuyi thought about it, the angrier he became. If such a person could get to the top, then God would be blind.
But after being reborn for so long, why is there no news about King Zhao at all?
Shen Shuyi withdrew his thoughts and looked at Xie Jingchi: "Master Xie, have you heard any news about the Ninth Prince?"
Xie Jingchi paused holding the teacup and looked at Shen Shuyi: "Why do you think of asking this?"
Shen Shuyi said slowly: "It's just that when I think about Xiao Tingshan's return to his ancestral home and becoming the legitimate sixth prince, given his personality, he will definitely want to fight for it."
"From this, I can't help but think of your majesty's other princes..."
Shen Shuyi's words were obscure, but several people understood them.
Emperor Qianwu has many sons and daughters, most of whom are still in their prime. When the next few princes grow up a little more, I am afraid that the court of Daqian will be in chaos.
Even if they don't take sides, they still have to make some plans.
Otherwise, if you are not careful in the battle for the throne, you will die without knowing how.
"The Ninth Prince's biological mother is none other than Yin Qiling, the eldest daughter of the Yin family. During the Wen'an Rebellion, the Ninth Prince disappeared in the chaos and his life or death is unknown. There has been no news of him since then."
Xie Jingchi spoke slowly, his eyes falling on Shen Shuyi's face.
Shen Shuyi frowned slightly. She had sent Jiang Li to investigate several princes of Emperor Qianwu. Now, according to her calculations, the most likely person to be Prince Zhao was the missing Ninth Prince.
But even though he was missing, everyone assumed that he had met with a murderous assassination.
But if he is really the King Zhao in the previous life, it means that he must not be dead.
Otherwise, none of the other princes fit Shen Shuyi's speculation.
It seems that we still have to start with the Yin family.
Back then, Yin Qiling had a deep friendship with the late Second Prince. Due to Lu Qing's design, Your Majesty and Yin Qiling gave birth to the Ninth Prince by accident.
Although Emperor Qianwu was suspicious, he was also a man who valued friendship and loyalty.
Although he had a rift with Xiao Huaijin, he felt very indebted to Yin Qiling, so he had always been nice to the Yin family.
After that, Xiao Huaijin was imprisoned and died, and Yin Qiling also died shortly after giving birth to a child.
Emperor Qianwu appreciated her loyalty and righteousness, so although he did not confer a higher title on her, he always took good care of the Yin family.
So, will the Yin family know about the existence of the Ninth Prince?

The group sat here and chatted for a while until all the students who were taking the preliminary exam entered the venue. Xie Jingchi looked at Zhao Baokun and said, "Cousin, I heard that you have always wanted to go to the Weapon Shop."
Zhao Baokun was full of questions: Was it true? When did it happen? Who said it?
Zhao Baokun looked at Xie Jingchi blankly. Xie Jingchi's eyes were dark and he said firmly, "Yes, go ahead."
"Have I thought about it?" Zhao Baokun spoke again.
"I've thought about it." Xie Jingchi said firmly.
Zhao Baokun wanted to say something else, but Zhao Xueqing had already pulled him away: "Come on, I'll go around with you."
Zhao Baokun finally came to his senses and pushed Shen Shuhan, saying, "Cousin, let's go together!"
Shen Shu looked at this scene and burst out laughing.
She looked at Xie Jingchi and said slowly, "Master Xie, do you have something to tell me? Is it related to the war in Liang Province?"
"Well, there is a war in Liangzhou, and a lot of military supplies need to be transported there. However, Daqian is currently fighting on two fronts, and the treasury is tight, so there can be no mistakes in the military supplies this time. Your Majesty intends to send me there."
Shen Shuyi was stunned for a moment, silently calculating the time of the wedding.
"If it's too late, the wedding will be postponed..."
"It's not too late. Daqian and Yuanxia are now testing each other. There is still time. I will set off the day after the wedding." Xie Jingchi said in a deep voice.
Shen Shuyi nodded, but she never thought that Xie Jingchi would come to tell her about this specifically.
So, what should she say?
Shen Shuyi thought about it and asked, "What do you need me to prepare?"
Xie Jingchi raised the corners of his lips and said in a deep voice: "It's nothing, just wait for me to come back at Xie Mansion, I just feel a little wronged for you."
Shen Shuyi couldn't help but laugh: "What's the big deal? What you do is for the country and the people. I'll wait for you to come back."
"Thank you, my lady." Xie Jingchi spoke slowly, his deep phoenix eyes holding an indescribable brilliance, and a hint of doting in his strength.
Shen Shuyi's ears felt a little hot because of this name.
"This journey is full of dangers, so remember to take care of yourself." Shen Shuyi stared at him and spoke slowly.
She wanted to persuade him to mind his own business and come back safely.
But on second thought, he is not that kind of person. There must be people like him to redress the injustices in this world.
She couldn't stop his benevolence because of her own selfish desires.
But she can do it. When he is in danger, she will risk her life to save him.

After returning to the Shen Mansion, Shen Shuyi thought about it and decided to prepare something for Xie Jingchi.
This trip, not to mention the numerous dangers, will definitely affect the interests of many people.
What's more, His Majesty might appoint him as military supervisor, but Liangzhou is mountainous and long, and it is not known how many factions it will be divided into.
Besides, the Gray Wolf King might not be easy to deal with...
Shen Shuyi asked Mr. Liancheng and Lianqiao to prepare more herbs, and also picked out some fabrics and asked someone to find a shop to make a few clothes and shoes for him.
Apart from this, Shen Shuyi couldn't think of anything else to do.
Until Mo Yu was caught by Jiuchou for the third time, and he resigned himself to his fate and drew circles in the corner, cursing, Shen Shuyi asked him to make a hidden arrow for Xie Jingchi.
What Lu Qing's men could do back then, Mo Yu can only do more exquisitely.
Sure enough, Jiuchou came over with a blueprint soon.
"Miss, Mo Yu said that the sleeve arrow is too big to be targeted, so why not make it into a hidden weapon ring?"
"ring?"
Shen Shuyi looked at Jiuchou, and Jiuchou immediately unfolded the drawing.
Shen Shuyi looked carefully and found that the so-called ring was actually a ring, but this ring could hide five silver needles, which could be shot out by a mechanism and were enough to hurt the enemy.
Shen Shuyi frowned: "The silver needles are not aggressive enough to be fatal, but if they are poisoned, it would be enough."
At that moment, Shen Shuyi made up his mind: "Let him do it according to this, and make two more sleeve arrows."
After thinking for a while, Shen Shuyi said, "Let him make a small soft armor or vest to protect the heart as well."
"Yes." Jiuchou responded.
