Villain: In the beginning, the heroine's spiritual pupil is cut out with a knife

"That's right." Wei Yan replied, "The Prime Minister's tone is very firm, and he will never break his promise."

Wei Qingqing felt his heart tremble. If the Prime Minister came to visit Wei Mansion, does that mean he would also come to see him?

At first, Wei Qingqing was very resistant to this marriage. But as time went by, and with Shen Yuan's various behaviors in the future, Wei Qingqing found that instead of resisting the marriage, she was looking forward to it more and more.

If she can marry Shen Yuan, she will become a veritable wife of the Prime Minister!

And in the officialdom, Grandpa's body skills will surely reach the sky in one step.

"In three days?"

Wei Qingqing asked tentatively.

"good."

After hearing Wei Yan's answer, Wei Qingqing returned to the boudoir and took out various rouge tablets.

She is the most beautiful woman in the capital. If she dresses up, wouldn't she be even more stunning?

When the time comes, I don’t believe that the Prime Minister will not be tempted by her.

Coupled with grandpa's push, this marriage will definitely come true by then.

How could she know that in Shen Yuan's eyes, there was no difference between beauty and ugliness.

Shen Yuan was ascetic and powerful, and would never be fascinated by beauty. Not to mention Wei Qingqing, even the original Ji Yaochi, the majestic empress, Shen Yuan could kill without batting an eye.

The harem of the Son of Destiny must be full of beautiful people.

But Shen Yuan knew that he was not the son of destiny. In fact, Youruo was not particularly beautiful, just above average.

But Shen Yuan didn't mind.

She's loyal enough, and that's enough.

Appearance, to Shen Yuan, is just a skin after all.

As for the marriage that Wei Yan mentioned to Shen Yuan before, Shen Yuan's attitude at the time was perfunctory, and then he completely forgot about it.

……

After the words were divided, Empress Qianrou moved to the Prime Minister's Mansion to visit Shen Yuan who was thinking about his past behind closed doors.

The two exchanged pleasantries, and then Qianrou talked to Shen Yuan about the serious matter, which was about the rebellious people in the three counties of Hengzhou and the envoys returning from the Southern Wilderness.

"...Father, if you are not in charge, no one can worry about these things for me. Look, what should I do with these two things?"

"Your Majesty, don't worry." Shen Yuan said with a smile, "Let everything be handled by the ministers. As for sending troops to encircle and suppress us, we haven't reached that point yet."

"Don't we need to send troops to suppress it?" Qianrou's watery eyes were wide open, filled with doubts.

"Your Majesty, the refugees in Hengzhou are causing chaos. If troops are forcibly suppressed, the people's resentment will only get worse."

"What should we do?"

Shen Yuan lowered his eyes slightly.

"The Ten Thousand Medicine Pill Sect, we can use the Ten Thousand Medicine Pill Sect to make a big fuss."

The Wanyao Dan Sect not only refines elixirs for monks, but also refines elixirs for ordinary people. Therefore, the Wanyao Dan Sect has a very good reputation in the three counties of Hengzhou.

As long as the Wanyao Dan Sect can win over people's hearts, there will be no need to worry about the chaos being pacified.

In the final analysis, they are just a bunch of unscrupulous people. If they are given a sweet treat, they will forget the pain.

After Shen Yuan told Qianrou his plan, Qianrou still felt guilty.

"But will the Panyao Dan Sect speak for us?"

"Fang Xuan, the master of Wanyao Dan Sect, is a smart man. He will do things for me."

Shen Yuan had already reached a cooperation with the Wan Yao Dan Sect, and the Wan Yao Dan Sect had to send a large number of elixirs to the Shen Mansion every year.

Now if he was asked to say a few good words about Beiqi, there was no way Fang Xuan would not do it.

Strictly speaking, the Northern Qi royal family can be considered Fang Xuan's benefactor.

Don’t forget how the Wanyao Dan Sect was disrupted by Yinxu Valley. In the end, wasn’t Yinxu Valley sent by the Northern Qi royal family to suppress the demons?

This can be regarded as revenge for him, Fang Xuan.

Therefore, Shen Yuan was certain that Fang Xuan would not refuse.

Especially the image he had disguised before was more convincing.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, in order to protect the monarch, he took half a step of the Supreme body to forcefully receive the Supreme palm.

After this kind of thing spreads, what kind of person will other people think Shen Yuan is?

Loyal to the king, righteous, and upright!

In addition, this time, Shen Yuan was just and selfish because of the affairs of Shen and his party, and the rumors about Shen Yuan will only get better.

Your Majesty, the Prime Minister, is so selfless.

Let's not talk about those in the public, let's talk about the current Hanlin Academy. Aren't there already people in there writing inscriptions and poems for Shen Yuan, praising Shen Yuan's noble character and integrity?

A bunch of sour scholars thought that if they flattered Shen Yuan, Shen Yuan would take care of them in the officialdom.

All I can say is, I think a little too much.

"Your Majesty, don't worry. I will write a letter and give it to Fang Xuan right now. Fang Xuan will handle the chaos in Hengzhou for us."

Qianrou nodded.

As for the return of the envoys sent to Nanhuang, the news they brought was that Nanhuang did not agree to send troops.

Shen Yuan also expected this result. At first, he just wanted to test Nanhuang's attitude, but Shen Yuan had already been prepared that Nanhuang would not take the bait easily.

"Sure enough, I will leave everything to my father-in-law, so I have nothing to worry about."

Qianrou stretched her waist and leaned lazily on the bench.

"These matters are finally settled."

At this moment, Qianrou heard noisy sounds coming from outside the Prime Minister's Mansion, as well as various beatings, scoldings, and screams.

"Father, why is this sound coming from your mansion?"

Qianrou opened the door curiously, wanting to see what was going on.

"It's people from the Criminal Department who are arresting people." Shen Yuan explained, "I heard that Shen and his party confessed many accomplices. Mr. Wang handles the case impartially. Come to my prime minister to arrest people."

"How dare he come to your house to arrest someone? That's too much. He doesn't take you, the prime minister, seriously at all!"

"I asked him to do that." Shen Yuan said slowly, "Shen and his party committed such a heinous crime. As the head of the Shen family, I will never tolerate such scum in the Shen family. I failed to detect Shen and his party as soon as possible. I have neglected my duties, so how can I stop Mr. Wang’s investigation now?”

How could Qianrou know that these people were arrested by Shen Yuan under the orders of Mr. Wang and gave him a list, directly saying that it was Shen and his party who confessed.

The people arrested were naturally the core disciples of the elder lineage. Those elders Shen Yuan still planned to keep. Although their level of Thousand Illusion Spirit Pupils was not very good, their cultivation level was quite passable.

If there is a chance in the future, I will devour them with the Immortal Devouring Demonic Art.

It would be too wasteful to hand them over directly to the Ministry of Punishment for interrogation.

Moreover, taking elders away from the Shen family will indeed slightly damage the majesty of the Shen family's prime minister's office.

There are two kinds of bad people in this world who are very scary.

One is ferocious and terrifying, the other is well-dressed.

Shen Yuan belongs to the latter.

After Qianrou opened the door, she saw those people from the Criminal Department arresting Shen family disciples. Of course, this was the Prime Minister's Mansion after all, and they didn't dare to mess around.

They only dare to arrest people and do nothing else.

It was far more gentle than the previous time when the enemy destroyed the Pei family.
