The imperial concubine bows down to me

"Gu definitely didn't deliberately avoid the concubine because he hated the concubine, it's just... just that there are some things that Gu can't tell the concubine right now... In the future, if there is a chance, Gu will definitely tell the concubine, but it's not the time yet... "Shen Zhi said with a sincere face, as if there really was such a thing.

Liu Shuyan was amused by her, and reached out to pat her head: "Okay, my concubine naturally believes in His Highness. But can Your Highness also agree to my request, no matter what happens in the future, if possible, even if His Highness does not Tell the concubine completely, and let the concubine know one or two of them. In fact, when people get along with each other, the most fearful thing is not disagreement on certain things or incomprehension of another person's certain practices, but that they have things to hide from each other. If it’s one or two things, it’s okay, if there are too many things to hide, even if it’s for the sake of the other party at first, it will inevitably lead to the accumulation of conflicts and the generation of estrangement in the end.”

Speaking of this, Liu Shuyan's eyes turned suddenly, and he looked at Shen Zhi with a little apology, and his expression became serious: "I admit that at the beginning, the concubine really felt that His Highness was still young, so There are many things that His Highness did not know. Maybe His Highness has guessed some things, so he often asks the concubine. What the concubine did at the beginning was a little inappropriate. But after this period of time, His Highness has grown a lot. Today The concubine also assured His Highness that no matter what happens in the future, the concubine will not hide His Highness's knowledge and act privately like before."

Shen Zhi was quite surprised by Liu Shuyan's sudden honesty. She wanted to fight side by side with Liu Shuyan before, instead of hiding behind Liu Shuyan and enjoying the success, but due to various reasons, she never found a chance to talk to Liu Shuyan about this matter thing.Now that Liu Shuyan took the initiative to talk to her about this, she was naturally happy, but Liu Shuyan's words inevitably implied some worries about her alienation, which also added a little bit of self-blame to Shen Zhi.

"Grand Concubine, Gu knows about it, and Gu also assures you that it will never be like this in the past few days in the future."

Shen Zhi and Liu Shuyan talked about the matter, although the confusion in her heart has not been substantively resolved, but for her, there are still a lot of gains.At least Liu Shuyan promised that he would never hide anything from her in the future, and she seemed to have just found a suitable excuse for not alienating Liu Shuyan anymore, a reason why she could no longer escape her inner thoughts.

After returning from the palace that day, Shen Zhi's mood became much better than before, and the anxiety in his heart gradually disappeared.She didn't deliberately find excuses to avoid Liu Shuyan, but buried her shameful dreams and thoughts deeply in her heart, and didn't plan to mention them to anyone again.

The days passed day by day, and in the blink of an eye, it has been a month and a half since the day Xia Zi was taken away from the East Palace by Shen Tai.It is still impossible for Xia Zi to have a pregnancy pulse, Shen Tai may be able to believe it for the time being in the past few days, but it is estimated that if she does not have a slippery pulse in another five or six days, Shen Tai will be suspicious of it, maybe He will also make some big moves that are difficult to parry in a fit of anger.

The closer the time came, Shen Zhi became more and more worried about this.At court this day, she invited Liu Shuyan to the East Palace, and wanted to discuss with her how to deal with it.

Seeing her somewhat sad expression, counting the days, Liu Shuyan also roughly guessed what she was worried about.As soon as Shen Zhigang said his worries, Liu Shuyan nodded and asked her, "What do you think, Your Highness?"

"I haven't thought of any feasible solution yet, but now that Xue Jiang and Wu Chenglei have been executed, the only person Jin Wang can rely on is the Taiwei Li Bi. When the father and the emperor went on the expedition, the Taiwei told him that he was sick and did not go with him. Staying in this capital city, most of the time I want to take advantage of my father's absence to help Brother Jin, and the two of them will work together to deal with Gu." Shen Zhi carefully analyzed the clues already in his mind, "Gu is thinking, can you We can’t preemptively pull out the last straw of Jin Wang’s life before he takes action against us.”

Speaking of this, it should have been impassioned, but then Shen Zhi sighed again: "It's just that the Taiwei Li Bi has a high position and has a heavy army in his hands. Even the father and the prime minister are afraid of him. How can you easily pull him off the horse?"

Hearing what Shen Zhi said, Liu Shuyan couldn't help but nodded in approval.She didn't directly comment on Shen Zhi's thoughts, but pursed her lips and smiled knowingly, and asked, "What did Your Highness just say?"

"Ah? Gu Fang just said, can we preemptively get rid of Taiwei Li Mi and leave him alone and helpless before brother Jin Wang makes a move." Apparently, Shen Zhi didn't understand Liu Shuyan's meaning immediately, she was stunned, thinking Liu Shuyan was real He didn't hear what she said, so he repeated the last sentence just now.

Liu Shuyan shook his head, reminded softly: "No, it's the last sentence."

At this time, Shen Zhi knew that Liu Shuyan was mentioning her, so she thought carefully about what she had just said.

"When the father and emperor went to the expedition, the Taiwei said that he was sick and did not go with him... he said that he was sick and did not go with......" After carefully thinking about this sentence, Shen Zhi opened his eyes wide as if suddenly realized. Full of admiration for Liu Shuyan, "Is the noble concubine saying... Let the Taiwei go to support the father now?"

As a captain, Li Mi was in charge of half of the soldiers and horses of the dynasty. It stands to reason that when there was a war at the border, it was his duty to go to the front line.But at that time, I didn't know what happened. Maybe it was an emergency at the front line, and Shen Tianhe didn't have much time to think about these trivial matters. When Li Bi called him sick, Shen Tianhe didn't care too much about him, and only asked him to mobilize some soldiers to help him. After using it by himself, he left him in the capital as an assistant to Shen Zhi.

But not long after that, Li Mi seemed to be healed all of a sudden.Shen Zhi met Liu Shuyan when he was canonized as the crown prince and grand teacher. At that time, she didn't pay much attention to him, but now that she thinks about it, Li Mi's face at that time was not haggard at all, and she didn't look like a person recovering from a serious illness at all.Most likely, he just didn't want to go to war with Shen Tianhe, he just wanted to stay in the capital to help his son-in-law Shen Tai.

But now that Li Mi has "cured", if Shen Zhi asked him to rush to support on the grounds that the frontline battle was tight, he would have no reason to shirk.As long as he leaves the capital, Shen Tai will suffer a great loss.

"Your Highness is indeed smart." Liu Shuyan nodded in approval.

Hearing Liu Shuyan's praise of her, the joy in Shen Zhi's eyes not only did not increase, but gradually disappeared.She wondered: "However, the Taiwei and Jin Wang brothers were in collusion to plot against the father and Gu Tu, and now the battle ahead has not subsided. If the Taiwei leads the troops at this time, he will take the opportunity to be unfavorable to the father and fight with Jin." Brother Wang cooperates inside and outside, then we are really doomed."

"It would be detrimental to the emperor if he brought a heavy army, but what if he just escorted the army rations and was intercepted and killed by some green forest hero on the way?"
