Chapter 416
Chu Jinpeng's attitude was beyond Shen Youxia's expectation. Thinking of the emperor's reaction in Xiyang City, Shen Youxia had to suspect that there were other reasons.

Chu Jinpeng shook his head helplessly, "I don't know. Before I came to quell the chaos, the emperor only asked me to stick to it. Even if I died, I had to stick to it. I haven't figured out what happened in Duancheng yet. "

This is not a lie, even if Chu Jinpeng thinks that Duancheng is his stronghold, he doesn't know what happened in Duancheng, the people in Duancheng don't know what happened, even the rebels don't know what happened in Duancheng. Why fight this battle.

But in this situation, Duancheng is still in a tense situation. I don't know why they are opposing, but no one is willing to give in.

Chu Jinpeng tried to find the other party for peace talks, but he never met the other party's ruler. The reason for the Duancheng rebellion has always been a mystery.

"What secrets are hidden in Duancheng?"

After hearing Chu Jinpeng's words, Shen Youxia couldn't help frowning, and expressed her doubts.

"As ministers, even if we don't know the reason, we must believe that the emperor's order must have a deep meaning."

Although he was in danger, Chu Jinpeng always adhered to the loyalty and bottom line of being a courtier.

"Then I don't think the same way as Big Brother Chu. Even if I die, I have to die clearly. Only by going to see Lord Yan clearly can I be worthy of living in this life."

Loyal to the emperor and patriotic, Shen Youxia can only be patriotic. As for loyalty to the emperor, it depends on whether the gentleman sitting in a high position is worthy of her loyalty. So far, Shen Youxia has not seen anything worth protecting with his life.

Instead of taking loyalty to the emperor as his motto, it is better to use love for the people and protect the safety of one side is the belief of the Dingguohou Mansion, which Shen Youxia is willing to uphold.

The two people have different views, Shen Youxia didn't want to let Chu Jinpeng accept his idea, and Chu Jinpeng didn't care about the difference between Shen Youxia and himself.

It's just that when the two of them were thinking about what to say, there was a sudden commotion outside the door.

"what happened?"

The soldiers standing outside heard Chu Jinpeng's question and came in.

"If you go back to the general, there is a woman outside who says she is looking for the general. Yes, she is the general's old friend."

The soldiers outside had been with Chu Jinpeng for at least three to five years, and everyone knew who was around him, so the soldiers outside didn't allow anyone to come in.

However, the righteous words spoken by the visitor were clear and logical, and the soldiers were somewhat skeptical in their hearts, so they hesitated in what they said. If that woman is really an "old friend" of General Chu, then...

After hearing what the soldier said, Shen Youxia looked at Chu Jinpeng with eyes full of curiosity, seeing the soldier's embarrassment, without intuition, Shen Youxia knew that what the outsider said might be more than just an "old friend".

"Do you want someone to come in and take a look? What if it's really an old friend?"

I have to say that this person came at the right time, perfectly relieving the awkward atmosphere between Shen Youxia and Chu Jinpeng.

Seeing that Chu Jinpeng did not object to Shen Youxia's words, the soldiers cupped their hands and went out to bring him in.

Seeing the people who came, Shen Youxia was a little confused, who can tell her why she saw her here?

The small palm-sized face was smeared with dust and black, and the head like a chicken coop couldn't see the peerless elegance of the past.

If he was not too familiar with the person, Shen Youxia would not dare to associate the woman in front of him with the person in his impression.
