Shen Zhixu breathed a sigh of relief: "I want to have a good rest after I go back."
Xiao Chengyi happily agreed to him: "Okay, I'll give you time to work on your life-long affairs. After all, you can only solve your own major affairs so that you can share the worries of the people."
Shen Zhixu: "..."
He asked Xiao Chengyi with a resentful look on his face: "Can I refuse Shamen and continue to be my host?"
Xiao Chengyi asked him: "What do you think?"
Shen Zhixu sighed, and it was in vain to ask. How could it be so easy to get off Xiao Chengyi's pirate ship?
Mu Yun'an said: "I think Master Shen has done a good job as the supervisory censor. From now on, I will leave the supervision of the officials to you."
Shen Zhixu's lips twitched and he said resignedly: "Thank you for the compliment, Princess."
Mu Yun'an smiled and said: "You don't have to worry about being separated from Miss Chen. You can take her with you when you go out to Beijing for business.
Isn’t it nice for Miss Chen to go about her business and you to go about your errands?”
Shen Zhixu couldn't help laughing. Did he even plan for his future?
He responded: "The princess is absolutely right."
Mu Rufeng has been looking at Shen Zhixu. He has been away from home all year round and knows very little about Shen Zhixu's affairs.
However, he had heard a little bit about his identity, so he asked: "I heard that Mr. Shen is from the Han family?"
Shen Zhixu was stunned for a moment, then nodded slightly: "I am the illegitimate son of the Han family."
Mu Rufeng said: "You and your father have some similarities in their facial features. Do you know how your father died?"
Shen Zhixu said: "Didn't he die in battle?"
Mu Rufeng looked at his reaction and immediately laughed out loud: "I wonder what is so special about my son-in-law? Can you be loyal and follow me?"
Shen Zhixu replied: "If the regent is not special, General Mu, you don't think much of his son-in-law, right?"
Mu Rufeng raised her eyebrows and said happily: "That's right."
After a pause, he continued: "I don't know if Yi'er has told you, but I need to tell you clearly about your father's death.
Your father, Han Jun, did not die in battle, but died at my hands. Your father heard what I said when Xiao Ce and I broke up.
In order to protect Yi'er's life experience from being leaked, Xiao Ce and I teamed up to kill Han Jun and then pretended to look like he died in battle.
For so many years, the Han family has been insisting on our Mu family, and they also have this suspicion."
Shen Zhixu's eyes moved and he said in a deep voice: "These regents have all told me.
I have a very vague impression of this father. I only remember that he appeared when I was very young.
When I grew up, I learned about my life experience. I went to the Han family to recognize my relatives, but was beaten to death by the mistress of the Han family. I almost lost my life.
Fortunately, Ye Xiuchen, the leader of our Jue Kill Sect, rescued him and saved his life, but he became a cripple.
Therefore, I have a deep hostility towards the Han family, and together with my father who abandoned me and my mother, I have always wanted to destroy the Han family.
Later I met the Prince Regent, who gave me the opportunity to untie my knot, and I was able to live the life I have now.
As for my father, he died when I was very young, on the battlefield, and the man General Mu mentioned was not my father."
Mu Rufeng understood what he meant and said: "People flock together and birds flock together, it's not unreasonable for you to be friends with Xiao Chengyi."
He took a deep breath and asked, "Is there any news about the young master of the Han family?"
Shen Zhixu said: "He was obsessed with revenge before, causing a big mistake and harming his beloved. Now with the help of the regent, he has become a monk and repented."
Mu Rufeng looked at Xiao Chengyi: "What's going on?"
