Chapter 399
The undercurrent surge in Xiaocheng in Yunguo may be a major event in the country, but it will not affect the pattern of the world, and it will not attract too many people's attention. Lingcheng in Shenguo will not care about the open and secret struggles of various forces in Xiaocheng.

The few courtiers in Lingcheng were just looking forward to the return of their monarch so that they could deal with the difficult matters that had accumulated in the kingdom.

Finally, on this day at the end of September, Shen Muyu, who had been away from Lingcheng for nearly two months, came back.

He went back to the Duke's Hall to take a break and change his clothes, and before he could sit still in the Hall of Political Affairs, he was notified by Mr. Zuo Xiang to see him.

Shen Muyu sat behind the long table in Zhengbei, and when he heard the news that Prime Minister Zuo was coming, he couldn't help but sighed softly.

Immediately, he straightened his face, and said softly to the guard who came to report: "Let Yu Qing come in."

The guard responded respectfully, turned around and walked out of the hall.

Not long after, an old man about 60 years old walked in slowly.It was a hale and hearty old man, his face was already aged, but the awe-inspiring uprightness and calm aura on his face made him not look old at all.

He was tall and tall, with his back straight, he walked to a place not far from Shen Muyu's table and stood still, saluting: "I have seen your lord, and your lord is safe."

"Father-in-law, you don't need to be too polite, get up quickly." Shen Muyu always called the left minister of Shen Guo, Yu Chengshen, father-in-law in private. Yu Chengshen gave way several times, and finally acquiesced.

After receiving Shen Muyu's response, Yu Chengshen straightened up and looked at Shen Muyu, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty has been away from the palace for nearly two months, and the journey has been exhausting."

"It's all for the country of Shen, I don't work hard." Xu was to preemptively strike, Shen Muyu looked at Yu Chengshen with a smile, and said: "This time I stopped by the country of Li on the way back to the country, and I am a talented painter. I drew a detailed map of the important cities and various passes along the way, and the Japanese king asked someone to copy a copy and send it to my father-in-law for a look."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Yu Chengshen bowed down respectfully, then straightened up and looked at Shen Muyu, opening his mouth to say something.

Unexpectedly, Shen Muyu interrupted his words first, and said with a smile: "Father-in-law doesn't know, I have reaped a lot from going to Li Guo and my party. I have heard about the auction house in Yanghai City for a long time. I also built one in Lingcheng, but I heard that the cost is very high, and I don't know if it will bring income to the treasury, so I have been hesitant.

"So after I went to Yanghai City, I took a good look at the well-known auction house, and used a jade pendant to test the depth of the auction house. I finally felt that the plan to build an auction house was feasible, and I also had a way to get us Ling The auction house in the city will increase its reputation, and it will not be afraid to make a loss-making business."

Yu Chengshen listened quietly to Shen Muyu's words, then bowed his head and replied: "This matter is entirely up to the king's decision."

Shen Muyu looked at Yu Chengshen with a smile, and said warmly: "When I was in Yanghai City, I added a legend to a jade pendant, and finally sold it at the auction house for [-] dollars. I want to give the [-] knives to my father-in-law to thank my father-in-law for his hard work in dealing with state affairs during the two months since I left the palace."

"Your Majesty is too polite." Yu Chengshen shook his head and declined politely: "I should have been entrusted by my Majesty to handle state affairs, not to mention hard work, how dare I ask for my Majesty's reward?"

Shen Muyu smiled lightly: "Father-in-law doesn't need to refuse, you deserve the [-] dollars."

Yu Chengshen was silent for a while, did not make further excuses, nodded and said: "Yes, I thank you for your reward."
