Chapter 250 The world is in chaos!
Chapter 250 The world is in chaos!
Shen Ruoyan, a woman, is actually entangled in the affairs of King Huainan!
What Shen Mo was worried about was not her reputation, but her life!
The Prince of Huainan was not invited to the capital, even a fool would know what he wanted to do!
Shen Mo was worried, "Ruoyan, tell your grandfather if Lu Jing forced you to do this?"
Yes, my granddaughter had insisted at the beginning that she would not marry anyone else but Lu Jing in this life. She would rather ask to leave the house and marry Lu Jing, this annoying man!
This time, maybe Lu Jing's becoming a monk was just a cover to make the emperor relax his vigilance and make it easier for Prince Huainan to rebel!
Ruoyan said that she no longer liked Lu Jing, but how could it be so easy to let go of the feelings that had lasted for so many years?
It must be that Lu Jing forced her to join the Prince of Huainan in the rebellion, and his own granddaughter could not resist, so she agreed.
Shen Mo was disappointed with Shen Ruoyan, but what he felt more was her heartache:
"Ruoyan, Lu Jing is not worth it for you to do this. Rebellion is a capital crime!"
Once implemented, not only will the Shen family be in danger, but Shen Ruoyan will also be sentenced to death - is it worth it for a man?
Shen Ruoyan was stunned for a moment, and was a little unresponsive. It was not until Shen Mo began to persuade her earnestly that she realized what her grandfather had misunderstood!
"Grandfather, that's not the case, you misunderstood!"
Shen Ruoyan was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. She had never expected that Shen Mo could actually think of this.
She even thought of rebelling for Lu Jing, which shows how earth-shattering Shen Ruoyan's feelings for Lu Jing were before!
But that was all in the past.
"The emperor is cowardly and incompetent. The previous battle of Nanwu has chilled the hearts of the soldiers. Now he is being unfair and causing public outrage. If this continues, the country will be in danger!"
He dared to say such outrageous words in front of Shen Mo.
Perhaps even the real Shen Ruoyan doesn't know that Shen Mo is not some retired old man. If the things he did happened in the past were put in context now, every one of them would be enough to shock the world!
However, in order to protect Shen Mo, these things were not made public to the world - only the royal family knew how important he was!
That’s why Shen Ruoyan dared to speak frankly in front of him. He was a magical person who went to the border alone and negotiated an impending war with just his words!
Not only that, the founding emperor of the Great Sheng Dynasty also rebelled and proclaimed himself emperor, and the Shen family made an indispensable contribution to this.
It was only after she became the empress dowager that she came to know so many of the secrets.
What's more, Shen Mo has a trump card in his hand.
"Ruoyan, grandpa hopes that you won't have to worry about these things for the rest of your life."
Shen Mo sighed, feeling helpless and emotional, "But I am very pleased that you have this awareness."
He would not tell Shen Ruoyan that these national affairs were not something a woman like you should worry about.
He would not deny Shen Ruoyan's idea and think that she was being unreasonable.
On the contrary, he was worried that the more Shen Ruoyan knew, the more things he would have to worry about.
Shen Ruoyan also experienced the intimacy between generations to the fullest.
No matter what shocking things she was doing, her grandfather was most worried about her getting tired.
"In that case, just go for it. It doesn't matter if you fail, as you have your grandfather here!"
Shen Ruoyan's eyes were red. At this moment, she felt extremely fortunate that Shen Mo was her grandfather!
Only such a person could understand her true purpose deep in her heart.
We will not attack or stop it, we will only support it with all our strength.
Shen Ruoyan...really has a good grandfather!
The merits of the Shen family in following the emperor throughout the generations have never been made public. Because the people of the Shen family have always been sophistry, and their mouths are sometimes more useful than the general's sword!
Therefore, in order to reward the Shen family for their contributions, the founding emperor of the dynasty at that time specially made a golden medal of immunity from death and gave it to the Shen family, which could ensure the lives of the Shen family for generations to come.
This golden medal of immunity from death can be used an unlimited number of times, regardless of the reason, and anyone can use it as long as they are of the Shen family!
This is the only one since the founding of the dynasty!
Shen Mo told Shen Ruoyan about this and asked her to be brave and do what she wanted to do.
He is not an old stubborn man who is only loyal blindly, otherwise, the Shen family would not have come this far.
"When the Queen Mother was still alive, the Emperor would not have done this. Now that the Queen Mother has passed away, the Emperor has no hope, and a war will come sooner or later. But Grandfather did not expect that the King of Huainan would be so impulsive this time. Although the timing is wrong, his strength should not be underestimated."
He looked at Shen Ruoyan seriously and told her, "After I leave, you must act with caution. If the King of Huainan is defeated, go find this person. He will take you and Yan'er to evacuate safely."
The current situation is turbulent, and as the head of the family, Shen Mo naturally cannot just take care of Shen Ruoyan.
It was actually extremely difficult to come to Shengjing this time.
Even so, he still made proper arrangements, prepared many escape routes for Shen Ruoyan, and considered everything carefully.
Shen Ruoyan nodded, "Don't worry, Grandfather, I will act according to the circumstances."
Shen Mo cannot stay in Shengjing for too long, and the Shen family will not sit idly by this time.
So after he returned, there were still many things that needed to be prepared and arranged.
Under the escort of Shen Ruoyan, Shen Mo left the capital overnight without alerting anyone.
There are already signs of chaos in Shengjing City. The guards only took a quick look at the pass tokens prepared by Shen Ruoyan, and it seemed that their hearts were no longer here.
The rebels captured another city, and the army sent by the court not only failed to suppress them, but also got into a bitter battle with them!
When the news reached Shengjing, everyone was shocked!
The rebel army was a ragtag group of people who couldn't even get enough food to eat. How come the imperial army couldn't even defeat them?
And this is not the most worrying thing...
Just when everyone was terrified about the uprising, news came from the border that Meng Su was attacking!
"Didn't we sign an agreement before? What does Meng Su mean by this?"
The emperor was so anxious that he got irritated and his mouth was covered with dry skin.
He used to care about it, but now, he doesn't care at all.
"Your Majesty, Meng Su did not enter the country from Nanwu, but opened the city gates of Yanling nearby and allowed Meng Su's army to pass through without permission..."
"News came from the front line saying that Lin Si was seen in Mengsu's army..."
"Lin Si?!"
The emperor froze all over. How could Lin Si have colluded with the Mongols?
What about Concubine Lin?
He didn't dare to think about how much information Concubine Lin, who often grinds ink and lights for him, has mastered...
He didn’t take it seriously before. After all, they were women who depended on him for a living. So even if they knew, what would it matter?
But now, I am sweating coldly!
He didn't even dare to say this, because he knew very well in his heart that this was his dereliction of duty as an emperor...
And Lin Si... he had been working in the court for many years, and now that he has defected to Meng Su, it is even worse!
No wonder Yanling opened its gates wide - wasn't that where the Lin family made their fortune? !
