After the zombies traveled through time, they were tricked by the villain into becoming a stepmother

You should listen to what you should listen to, and you should not listen to what you shouldn’t listen to.

An An is so smart, everything he says is right!

The mother and son blinked in tacit understanding.

Confirming that his mother had really become smart, the little brother patted her arm with satisfaction.

"Mom, you are so smart!"

"I am very sure of that."

Chu Daidai shook his hair and looked proud.

The guards hiding in the dark reported all this to the king truthfully.

The emperor sat behind the imperial desk, listening to the secret guard's report, and was in a good mood, twiddling his beads. After the secret guard left, he turned his head leisurely to look at the handsome man standing respectfully beside him.

"I heard that you were the one who trained this cunning boy named Lin Youan? I really underestimated you. I didn't expect you to be such a good teacher."

Shen Mufeng lowered his eyelids and spoke in a steady tone.

“Your Majesty, that child is extremely intelligent and is not a talent that a military officer like me can train. I only helped check his homework for a period of time.

In fact, Lin Youan was taught by Li Cunxiao, a disciple of Mr. Zhang Yuming. After arriving in the capital, he was also instructed by Mr. Chu, and now he is fortunately accepted by the Hongwen Academy. It is said that Mr. Li once praised him, saying that this boy is smart and clever, and is a rare good seedling.

Moreover, he is not only excellent in academics, but also very smart and quick-witted in dealing with people. The prince of Ding and the only son of Duke Wu are both very good friends with him. I heard that he also gets along well with his classmates in Hongwenguan. I think when he grows up, he may be a good official of Daqi. "

Shen Mufeng responded to this passage very skillfully, and laid out the network of relationships behind Lin Youan clearly. I think the emperor should have investigated everyone around Chuchu clearly, so there is really no need to cover it up.

This is the advantage of being a minister close to the emperor. It is easier for them to figure out the emperor's intentions and not to play those unnecessary tricks. Being frank when it is time to be frank can also make the emperor less disgusted.

"Humph, and you still say you have no selfish motives?"

The emperor snorted softly, his tone unclear.

"I never knew that my taciturn Jade-faced General would become so eloquent."

I don't know if it was the majesty that the emperor deliberately released, but the chief steward Wei who was serving on the side didn't dare to breathe. He just moved his eyes silently, quietly observed the emperor's expression, and looked at General Shen who was standing on the other side.

Shen Mufeng narrowed his eyes, then his eyes flashed, he raised his eyes and looked directly at the king, with a bit of the temper and instability that a young man should have on his face.

Although his tone and posture were still respectful, the words he spoke clearly revealed some rebelliousness.

"What's wrong with me having selfish desires? I am just an ordinary person, not a saint. In this world, who doesn't have selfish desires?

As long as my selfishness benefits the country and does not affect your majesty, Your Majesty, you might as well turn a blind eye to my little selfishness and pretend you didn’t see it.”

This reply was quite frank.

With the infinite confidence of a favorite minister, and with the kind of intimacy of a nephew playing rogue to his elder, he finally made the emperor laugh out loud, and then he laughed and scolded him in an unpleasant manner.

"You little brat, don't I have to say anything to you? I praised you to the old ministers a few days ago for being more mature now, not as disobedient as you were when you were little, and now you are slapping me in the face?"

Phew~

Chief Steward Wei breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and looked at Shen Mufeng with admiration in his eyes. If there were people who dared to speak to the king like this, they would be slapped too many times in the entire court.

General Shen, you are indeed worthy of being a favorite minister!

Shen Mufeng raised his eyebrows and nodded in approval.

"Your Majesty, I am indeed very stable now."

"If you hadn't emphasized it like this, I would have believed it."

The emperor leaned on the armrest of the dragon throne without any kingly manner. He stretched out his right hand and pointed at the memorial on the left side of the imperial desk. His tone was full of obvious suspicion of scheming.

"Then may I ask the very steady Prince of Zhennan, can you tell me why you beat up the former Prince of Zhennan again yesterday, causing your poor old father to cry in front of me?"

Chief Steward Wei quickly lowered his head. He really couldn't bear to look at the emperor's shameless face that was so partial to him.

What do you mean by beating up the former prince of Zhennan? It was your beloved Jade-faced General who almost killed his elder brother, okay?

Think about the Marquis of Zhennan yesterday, who knelt in the imperial study and cried like a human. Your Majesty, who said at that time that he would definitely make the decision for him, what kind of joke are you making now?

It was clearly a fight between brothers, but now it has become a fight between brothers? Are you so biased and reckless? Are the poor Zhennan Marquis and his son willing to agree with your statement?

Having been with the emperor for so many years, the chief steward had a lot to complain about, but he didn't dare to say it. He could only sing a high-pitched voice at the emperor's signal.

"Xuan Zhennan Hou!"

Shen Yunchuan, who was waiting outside in an orderly manner, heard the call from Wei's chief steward and quickly tidied up his clothes and went to meet the king as ordered.

"This old minister kowtows to His Majesty!"

"Get up."

Although he didn't like this guy very much, but because of the old Marquis of Zhennan's face, the emperor would not deliberately humiliate someone else's legitimate son.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Shen Yunchuan performed the ceremony in a proper manner and stood aside respectfully. His eyes met with the expressionless second son, and the mockery on his face made him feel uncomfortable and sad, and he sighed repeatedly in his heart.

If the second son had not been so intent on killing the eldest son, he would not have wanted to expose the family's shame and come crying before the emperor!

"Come on, you and your son are both here before the emperor, so let's talk about our own reasons. While I still have some free time, I will help you to judge right from wrong."

The emperor's face was so eager to eat the melon that Shen Mufeng didn't want to look closely. However, how could the melon eater allow the melon to escape reality? So the diligent melon eater directly dug it out by himself.

"Shen Mufeng, tell me why you want to fight the former Prince of Zhennan again?"

The person who was held accountable knew that he could not avoid the question, so he simply nodded and admitted it boldly.

"It is true that I beat Shen Congfeng. If I hadn't thought about him and me being born of the same mother, I would have killed him with a single blow of my sword yesterday!"

The handsome general has his own charm when he becomes cold, which makes the emperor, who is obsessed with looks and biased, know at the first time that there must be a reason for all this!
