As the Sixth Prince expected, the emperor summoned the ministers into the palace early the next morning.

Although it was not a serious and formal occasion, it was in front of the emperor after all. Everyone was sitting upright and looked very serious.

Compared with others, Shen Chuan's posture was relatively relaxed, as if he only came to the palace to drink tea.

The emperor's eyes slowly scanned everyone, and he went straight to the point: "The boss will be back soon. He has not returned to the capital for several years. Now that he has finally come back, I am ready to hold a cleansing banquet for the boss, but now the queen I am not feeling well and should not work hard. Dear sir, do you have any thoughts?"

"Your Majesty," a man in his early fifties cupped his hands and said, "Master Shen always handles things carefully. Since Your Majesty attaches so much importance to this matter, it is naturally more secure to leave it to Master Shen."

His words obviously spoke to the emperor's heart.

In the eyes of outsiders, this dust-cleansing banquet is a trivial matter, just follow the procedures. However, from the perspective of the emperor, a father who has not seen his son for a long time, this dust-cleansing banquet is the most important thing in recent times.

Naturally, he wanted to leave it to the person he trusted most.

The emperor turned his head and looked at Shen Chuan: "Ai Qing, what do you think?"

Shen Chuan sighed and looked embarrassed: "Your Majesty, this year is not over yet, I still have things to be busy with."

"Oh?" The emperor raised his eyebrows in surprise.

The emperor also came from Shen Chuan's age, so he naturally knew what Shen Chuan was talking about at this time: "I didn't expect that you are getting married, so why have you changed your mind?"

People who used to rush in whenever they got the chance now only focus on the back house.

It’s true that a hero has a hard time being a beauty!

A smile appeared on Shen Chuan's face: "It seems to me that His Highness was the closest to His Highness the Sixth Highness before he left the capital. Since there is a cleansing banquet, it is natural to leave it to His Highness the Sixth Highness to show that we are close brothers."

The person who spoke before was about to speak, but Shen Chuan didn't give him a chance at all: "What's more, the process of this cleansing banquet is not complicated. I believe that His Highness the Sixth Prince will not be unable to handle this matter."

"If this matter is left to me, even if there will be no mistakes, it will lose a lot of human touch. Presumably, His Highness will be more willing to let His Highness the Sixth Prince take care of it."

This sentence silenced the man.

After all, he couldn't directly say that the sixth prince had no feelings for the eldest prince, let alone that the sixth prince was not capable enough, so...

The man had no choice but to keep silent.

This matter was settled just like that.

Before everyone left, the emperor smiled and told Shen Chuanchuan that he was thoughtful.

The Sixth Prince's people wanted to vomit blood when they heard this.

Be thoughtful.

He was thoughtful enough to silence all his words.

When this matter reached the ears of the Sixth Prince, he would definitely not be able to escape a scolding.

The man looked up to the sky and sighed, lowered his head and left.

Looking at the man's back as he left in mourning, a trace of amusement flashed in Shen Chuan's eyes.

Shen Chuan returned home briskly and couldn't wait to stick to Jiang Fuyue as soon as he saw her.

Jiang Fuyue looked helpless.

The two of them had been married for some time, but Shen Chuan still looked like this when he saw her. If outsiders saw her, their eyes would pop out in shock.

Who would have thought that Shen Chuan, who was able to face the emperor with ease, would be like this in private.

Jiang Fuyue raised her hand and patted his back twice: "How is it? Is everything going well?"

Shen Chuan nodded: "His Majesty has decided to let the Sixth Prince do it himself for the Cleansing Banquet."

Jiang Fuyue was relieved.

Although hosting a dust-cleaning banquet is not a big deal, it still requires a lot of work.

"But it's strange to say, shouldn't this kind of thing be handled by the Queen? Why..." Jiang Fuyue frowned slightly.

"Your Majesty said that the Queen has been unwell recently," Shen said.

Jiang Fuyue nodded and finally breathed a sigh of relief: "No matter what, at least I can live in peace these days."

Shen Chuan also smiled and nodded.

The two of them were very happy in this room, but the sixth prince in that room was not in such a good mood.

The chamberlain who had just been sent to deliver the imperial edict had not had time to catch his breath when Jiang Fuyao came over.

"Didn't you already say that you would summon my father to Beijing? The New Year is almost over, why haven't my father and the others come back yet?" Jiang Fuyao said.

The Sixth Prince glanced at her impatiently: "The Chinese New Year is not over yet. If I rashly summon him to the capital, it would be too deliberate. They will be able to come back after the Chinese New Year."

"Really?" Jiang Fuyao looked at him suspiciously.

"If you don't believe it, why bother asking me!" The sixth prince was extremely annoyed.

He was originally upset because his subordinates were not doing their job well, but Jiang Fuyao came to find him at this time, which really made him more tired.

Jiang Fuyao could also tell that he was in a bad mood, but she had no intention of stepping forward and saying a word of concern. Instead, she turned around and left.

She could see clearly that the Sixth Prince was a completely ruthless person. When dealing with such a person, one should never show sincerity, as long as the interests were clearly explained.

Anyway, even if you show your sincerity, you may not be able to get a satisfactory result.

-

For three days in a row, the Sixth Prince was so busy that his head and feet were hanging upside down.

Although the dust-cleansing banquet had its own procedures, the emperor attached great importance to this dust-cleansing banquet, so the sixth prince had no choice but to check every detail in person and not dare to make any mistakes.

So much so that when the three days passed and the day of the Cleansing Banquet arrived, the Sixth Prince could see a lot of vicissitudes of life.

In comparison, Shen Chuan, who had been eating and drinking well these days, looked particularly radiant.

The two stood together, making the sixth prince almost lose his appearance.

"Your Highness, you have been working hard these past few days." Shen Chuan hugged Jiang Fuyue with a faint smile in his eyes.

The smile was bone-chilling, and it didn't reach his eyes at all.

The Sixth Prince also forced a smile: "Master Shen is doing well these days."

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty," Shen Chuan said in a nonchalant manner, "Your Majesty attaches great importance to this cleansing banquet. I must have made sufficient preparations for it, and there is not a single flaw in it, right?"

The Sixth Prince sneered: "What does it have to do with you?"

The smile on Shen Chuan's face did not change: "I'm just worried for His Highness. If His Highness holds a dust-cleansing banquet as recklessly as he did a few days ago... I'm afraid it won't be easy to cover up in front of His Majesty."

Although Shen Chuan did not say it directly, the Sixth Prince knew very well what Shen Chuan was talking about.

The Sixth Prince's expression changed slightly, and his tone became a little stiff: "I don't understand what Lord Shen means. I didn't do anything in the past few days."

"That's good." Shen Chuan's eyes were quite meaningful.

After saying this, Shen Chuan no longer looked at the cold expression of the sixth prince, but instead lowered his head and said softly: "Madam, it's almost time. Let's go pay your respects to Your Majesty and the Queen."

Now that he and Jiang Fuyue were husband and wife, they naturally wanted to visit them together.
