Chapter 43 Delivering the Message
"The queen entrusted me to send this letter, and the queen told me to deliver it to Uncle Guo personally."

After chatting for a while, Jin Jiuying took out the letter from Shen Xin and pushed it in front of Shen Rong.

"The queen sent it?" Shen Rong took the letter and glanced left and right, but did not open it, and asked Jin Jiuying for sure.

It sounded like he didn't believe Jin Jiuying, but she guessed that it wasn't that he didn't believe that Shen Xin would send him a letter, but that he just doubted the authenticity of the letter.

"I haven't read the letter, but it was indeed the empress who asked me to give it to you. In addition, the empress asked me to bring you a few words." Jin Jiuying replied with certainty, and then asked Shen Xin to tell her. if.

"Oh, what else does the Empress have to tell the old minister?" Of course Shen Rong was very eager to know what Shen Xin had said, because it might be that the content of the letter could not be explained clearly.

"The queen said that the disaster in Hucheng must be dealt with urgently, and Sheng will see Hucheng recover in the first half of the year." Jin Jiuying nodded before starting to talk.

This was actually a reminder from Shen Xin, or it was a way for her to help them get rid of the suspicion.

Regarding the report memorials of Hucheng, there are not many investigations and they can be placed on a bookshelf. If it weren’t for Shen Xin to support them on the top, and Ye Zhaoyang to hold them down below, many of them could not even be sent out, so they would be turned around. If he went, it is estimated that even if Shen Rong is Shen Xin's younger brother, the death penalty will be unavoidable.

If they take advantage of the disaster here to do something close to the people below, no matter whether the people appreciate it or not, the officials above are good-looking.

Ordinary people can't face the saint, whether it's good or bad, it's not the county government and the state government that report to the court officials, and they report to the saint.

"In addition, the crown prince is about to visit the disaster area in person, and the imperial envoy who will cooperate with the crown prince to come to the disaster area is Ye Mo, the Ninth Prince. This person is not easy to mess with. This is what the queen specially ordered." After Jin Jiuying took a sip of tea, she told Shen Rong the key points.

"By the way, the Ninth Prince holds the Shangfang sword bestowed by His Majesty. Seeing the sword is like seeing His Majesty, so even the Crown Prince may have to show him some sympathy."

Jin Jiuying put the teacup on the table while Shen Rong was dignifiedly tapping on the table, lowering his head, and meditating, and then reminded him.

"Thank you, Crown Princess, for reminding me. The Crown Princess is here." Shen Rong knew that Jin Jiuying had already said almost what he had to say, so he smiled and greeted her politely.

"Uncle Guo, you don't need to be polite, Ying'er is entrusted by the queen, it's just a matter of loyalty."

Jin Jiuying didn't give this uncle Guo face very much, and she told him fully in a word of loyalty that the reason why she was willing to make this trip was not to help him.

Compared with some people's flattering behavior, Jin Jiuying was really straightforward, so Shen Rong was severely surprised by her words.

But this person is an old fox who has been in the officialdom after all, this trivial matter can still be swallowed, and Jin Jiuying's identity is not suitable for dealing with her clearly.

At least with her skill, Shen Rong could only speak politely to him before she was very sure.

"The Crown Princess speaks so straightforwardly, she is a hero among women. The old minister has ordered the kitchen to cook. If the Crown Princess does not dislike the wilderness here and there is no delicious food, she will stay in the humble house for a few nights."

Shen Rong's flattering tone made people sweat, just a few ordinary words, and he praised them as heroes. Then how do those women who are really rushing to kill the enemy in the battlefield arrange their identities properly?
"Uncle Guo is humble. The dishes in the mountains and forests are fresher and more nourishing. Ying'er is not a picky person. Uncle Guo doesn't need to bother, just order whatever you want."

Jin Jiuying was also courteous to Shen Rong, and of course, this meant agreeing to stay.

But now she doesn't live here, and she doesn't seem to have a place to go. Hucheng is now in a mess due to the post-disaster disposal, and it is troublesome to find an inn.

"The crown prince said so, the old minister is relieved." Shen Rong laughed and replied to Jin Jiuying, and then said to the maid waiting at the side: "Hurry up and take the crown princess to the guest room to rest."

"Yes." Upon hearing the order, the two girls came over and bowed their knees to Shen Rong, saying respectfully.

"If the princess has any orders, tell them and ask them to help." Shen Rong shouted from behind when Jin Jiuying followed the two girls to the door.

"Uncle Guo is bothering you." Jin Jiuying turned around and replied politely.

As soon as she went out, Shen Rong quickly ran into the room.

In fact, Jin Jiuying had already discovered just now that behind Shen Rong's lobby, there was a person hiding behind the screen, eavesdropping on their conversation.

And at this moment, Shen Rong saw that person.

This person is none other than Shen Xin and Shen Rong's nephew Li Yue.

"Uncle, this girl is really good-looking, she really is the official lady of the imperial city, she is really beautiful."

This Li Yue had long eyes. Just now when Jin Jiuying was sitting there talking to Shen Rong, his eyes never left Jin Jiuying's body, he walked on her body from head to toe, he couldn't bear to blink.

At this moment, Jin Jiuying walked away for a long time, his uncle Shen Rong went in and patted him, before he recovered, his saliva was already dripping all over the floor.

"No prospect, if you have no good looks, can you make your prince's cousin fascinated?" Shen Rong said angrily, giving him a blank look.

"It turns out that my cousin has taken a fancy to her. It seems that I really have a good eye this time." When Li Yue heard that Ye Zhaoyang liked Jin Jiuying, he immediately became happy and proud of his good taste.

"How can you miss your eyes, as long as it's your mother's, who would you not like?" Shen Rong shook his head helplessly, and gave Li Yue an upset look.

His siblings are not bad. Ye Zhaoyang, born by his second sister, is not to say that he is extremely smart, but he is definitely capable of both civil and military skills. But how could that eldest sister give birth to a bastard like Li Yue? The mud that cannot support the wall.

Besides, Jin Jiuying let the two maids lead into a large room, which is very elegantly furnished, with beautiful landscapes and celebrity calligraphy hanging on the wall, the dressing table is at the left corner, the middle of the right is the table, and the middle is the bed, The mosquito net above was as white as snow, but the bed was covered with a large emerald green quilt, which was neatly folded at the moment, but the snow-white bed sheet underneath was laid very flat, without any wrinkles.

"If the princess is too tired from the journey, you can take a short break first. The kitchen will prepare the food later, and we will call you again." The two maids brought Jin Jiuying to the room, hung the mosquito net on the hook, and symbolically lifted the quilt. After tugging with the sheet, he stood up and said politely to Jin Jiuying.

"Well, thank you." Jin Jiuying nodded to them, put the saber on the pillow, and then really lay down.
