Empress Lin Ance

Chapter 118 117. Are they hooking up?

**
That night.

Chu Qingyan was lying on the couch in the tent, but she couldn't sleep.

Today, she always felt that what Huyan Xingchi said to her outside had a deeper meaning. Suddenly, her hair was disheveled and she sat up suddenly——

"What do you mean including me? I've given him a free strike now, and he's still not satisfied?!"

"abnormal!"

She lay back and slept peacefully.

After all, she has been too tired recently. After solving the Beihu matter, Peihua can be safe in a short time. The most important thing is that she has already obtained the evidence that Pei Huaizhi colluded with Prime Minister Qi.

Next, we’re waiting for Wolfbane Kao.

Once she gets the antidote, she will ask Shen Yu to rush back to Chang'an without stopping and present the evidence to her father...

The next day.

While training in the martial arts field, Yan Xiaobai suddenly came to her and said, "Sir, Xiao Xuan is back. He has heard some news."

Chu Qingyan was taken aback.

Only then did she remember that when Pei Huaizhi pretended to pass an edict and asked Shang Huan, the governor of Beizhou, to raise troops, she had calmed the matter down, but after returning to the grassland, she asked Yan Xiaoxuan to investigate Shang Huan secretly.

Could it be that you got some great news when you came here this time?
Xiao Bai naturally saw her doubts, but he didn't say anything more. He just looked complicated and said, "It's a very important matter. Xiao Xuan was hurt a little. Young master, you'd better go and listen in person."

Chu Qingyan was stunned and said nothing. After handing over the task of performing martial arts to Tu Hechi, she followed Yan Xiaobai and left.

In the medical tent.

"Xiao Bai, are you injured?" Chu Qingyan opened the curtain of the medical tent.

Seeing her coming, Yan Xiaobai hurriedly covered the exposed wounds and covered his chest with his clothes.

"Sir, there's nothing wrong with me. It's all just exaggeration by a novice... Hiss!"

Not bothering to listen to his sophistry, Chu Qingyan opened his robe in one move, causing Yan Xiaoxuan to grimace in pain. She stared at his injury with frowning eyes.

The wound is not big, but it is a bit deep. The blood has not completely solidified yet, and there is black rotten flesh around it...

"An arrow in the sleeve." Chu Qingyan muttered as she looked at the wound.

Seeing her like this, General Yan Xiaobai also looked a little reserved. Yan Xiaoxuan silently pulled up his clothes.

"Who hurt you?"

Chu Qingyan's voice became a little hoarse, and Yan Xiaoxuan did not dare to hide it from her now, "Young Master asked me to investigate the relationship between Shanghuan and Pei Shangshu. I had to order him to go to Beizhou first to inquire, and then to Chang'an to collect evidence. , but I finally found out——"

Yan Xiaoxuan paused, and when she saw that she didn't make a sound, he continued, "Shang Huan and Pei Shangshu have no personal relationship."

This was something they had determined before.

"But Shang Huan once served as the captain of the bodyguard under Queen Wan." Yan Xiaoxuan said in a deep voice.

Queen Wan is the concubine Wan Gui who was re-canonized after her mother's death, and Concubine Wan Gui is the biological mother of the prince.

Chu Qingyan shook her head, and she suddenly remembered that when Pei Huaizhi faked the edict, Shang Huan said that he had not received the fake edict, which allowed Pei Huaizhi to escape completely.

But because of his own negligence, Shang Huan failed to send the news of the military training to the grassland in time, which almost caused an attack on the grassland, but in the end... the prince interceded for him.

She had not thought deeply about why the prince would help a Beizhou governor who had neglected his duties and had little merit.

So much so that now, Shang Huan was able to resume his official position and returned to the position of governor of Beizhou.In this matter, she seemed to have habitually excluded the prince, never considering what role he played in it.

"Sir, I suffered this arrow wound in Chang'an. It seems that someone is preventing me from continuing the investigation."

Yan Xiaoxuan looked at his wound again and said to himself: "It's strange to say that I came from Chang'an and this injury has been there for seven or eight days, but it hasn't healed yet..."

Seeing him looking stupid, Chu Qingyan finally took a deep breath, went to write a piece of paper on the desk and handed it to Yan Xiaobai, "Give him medicine according to this recipe. This arrow has tempered the poison. No. Healing won’t make it better.”

"Young Master actually knows this poison so well?" Yan Xiaobai was surprised.

Chu Qingyan said nothing, because the poisoned arrow in her sleeve was made by her own hands and handed over to the man for self-defense.

Her expression suddenly turned cold, "Since some people don't want us to investigate openly, then we will do it secretly."

……

In the afternoon, Chu Qingyan left the tent and walked eastward for dozens of miles to meet Shen Yu.

"This is evidence that Pei Huaizhi colluded with Qi Rong. As long as we have it, it will be easy to overthrow Pei Huaizhi."

There were many guards around, checking the surroundings. Chu Qingyan personally handed a wooden tube to Shen Yu and asked him to take good care of it.

Shen Yu solemnly agreed.

"Wait for two more days. When the Wolfbane King of Flowers arrives, you will set off immediately. Don't waste time on the road." Chu Qingyan patted Shen Yu's shoulder.

"What about you?" Shen Yu's eyes were blazing, and he asked her without hesitation for a moment, "The people on the grassland are cunning and cruel. You have seen how they treat Pei Hua. How long are you going to stay here?"

To be honest, Pei Hua's experience was enough to make him sympathize, but Shen Yu couldn't imagine what he would do if the person who suffered all this was Chu Qingyan.

"Don't worry. I'm staying under the tent of Huyan Xingchi. I'm still the military advisor of the Tianlang Division. Who can do anything to me?"

Chu Qingyan smiled and reassured him, but both of them knew in their hearts that there was going to be a tough battle, and they had to be extremely energetic.

"I haven't sparred with you for a long time, do you want to give it a try?"

Chu Qingyan saw the spear he put aside and had something to say.

Shen Yu followed her eyes and understood immediately. He smiled and nodded, "Okay! It's a rare time to meet friends. It's time for you and me to test our skills!"

On the vast grassland, covered with white snow, two figures as light and agile as flying birds danced and traveled between the sky and the earth.

……

The people sent out found out these things.

Huyan Xingchi kicked the stone away from his feet, his eyes showing frost, "You mean, you saw them hooking up and hugging each other with your own eyes?"

Mu Dan was right next to Huyan Xingchi. He seemed to have heard the sound of Huyan Xingchi grinding his teeth. He quickly asked the spy: "Tell me, who hugged whom first?"

The spy looked confused: Do you want this?Also, what he just said was clearly collusion, so how could it be considered collusion?Isn't this... not the same?

"It seems that General Shen hugged the little military advisor first..."

"I knew it!" Mu Dan said with determination, "How could Ah Qing take the initiative to hook up with that Shen Yu? Shen Yu must be shameless and approach Ah Qing unscrupulously in the name of getting the antidote!"

"After all, Ah Qing is still young, and Shen Yu is so charming, so he should be confused." Mu Dan finally found the steps.

"Hmph." Huyan Xingchi snorted coldly.

He cooled his eyes and said, "It's just a flower. I'll just fetch it for him."
