Empress Lin Ance

**
Dasheng, Chang'an.

Shen Yu successfully brought the secret message back, and on the night he returned to Chang'an, he went to the palace to report it.

Hearing that that night, because of Shen Yu's entry into the palace, Dasheng's civil and military officials, all the important officials of the third rank and above, were all urgently called out of bed, and all the officials entered the palace overnight.

There are rumors that even some officials who entered the palace late were snatched out of Huajieliuxiang by Jin Yiwei...

All I know is that not long after everyone entered the palace that night, the imperial guards sent troops overnight to surround the residence of a certain important court official.

That night, there was quite a disturbance in Chang'an City.

……

The ants also know that the wind in Chang'an City has changed.

"what?!"

The next day, everyone in every household knew that their powerful and powerful Minister Pei Da in Chang'an City had been arrested for collaborating with the enemy and treason.

"Oh my God, that's the Minister of Justice. Did you just take it?"

"What's wrong with the Minister? Bah - he must have done a lot of corruption and bribery on weekdays. Didn't you read the notice? This time he is collaborating with the enemy and treason! A thousand deaths are not enough!"

"But I heard that Pei Shangshu asked his own daughter to go to the grassland to get married. At that time, I thought he was quite righteous for the country..."

"Maybe he asked his daughter to inform him."

"That's not true. I heard that Princess Yongping was the one who killed her relatives this time and helped steal the secret message so that she could completely overthrow her father..."

"Really, she still knows the difference between right and wrong, good and evil, otherwise she should be put in jail with her father. Then I will have to throw away a few rotten vegetable leaves..."

Pei Huaizhi was thrown into prison, and the big tree of Minister of Punishment completely fell down. Many guests and ministers who supported the Pei family immediately walked and ran away.

The death of every important minister will vacate an attractive high position. This pursuit of power has just begun, and it is inevitable that a new round of bloodshed will arise in the court.

……

Hussar General's Mansion.

After Xia Houling's poison was cured, he immediately came to thank him in person.

Naturally, Shen Yu didn't dare to take credit, and for someone as smart as Xia Houling, his subordinates were not vegetarians either. He had probably sent someone to find out the whole story.

"General, you don't have to be polite. In fact, the reason why your poison was cured is not mainly due to me, but thanks to..."

"I know."

Xia Houling's face was still a little pale, but he couldn't hide the heroic spirit between his eyebrows.

"Princess Lin'an is in the grassland. How can it be so easy to get the sacred flower of the Huyan tribe? She got the antidote, right?" When Chu Qingyan was mentioned, Xia Houling raised his neck high and couldn't help but look at her. Skyrim.

There is no shortage of strange women in this world.

Shen Yu smiled in relief, "The general is indeed smart."

"But you deserve this visit to thank me. If you hadn't gone to the grassland in person to get the antidote for me and sent it back quickly, how could I, Xia Houling, still be standing here!"

"I will remember your kindness."

Xia Houling is a cheerful person, kindness is kindness, hatred is hatred, just like how she dislikes Pei Huaizhi, but just because she knows that her poisoning has nothing to do with him, she doesn't touch him one bit.

It's just that he is unlucky for his own misdeeds. He is so shameless to the world for collaborating with the enemy and treason, and has committed the grave sin of exterminating the nine tribes. It can only be said that he has brought it upon himself.

He didn't just bring it upon himself, he also brought down the whole nine tribes of the Pei family! "I came here from the village and heard some rumors. The people said that Princess Yongping killed her relatives out of righteousness and stole back the secret message. This is the news that the princess asked you to release."

It's hard for Xia Houling not to think about Pei Hua. As Pei Huaizhi's direct daughter, if we talk about the implicated nine clans, even if Pei Hua, who is far away in the grassland and getting married, can survive, she probably won't be able to keep her status as a princess, and her situation in the grassland will definitely be worse. difficult.

Moreover, the most important thing is that in the eyes of the people, the Pei family has collaborated with the enemy and treason, and Pei Hua is in the grassland to get married, so there is no guarantee that she will not be a spy.

In this way, if the people's hearts are united, His Majesty will not necessarily go against the people's hearts. Even if Peihua comes back in the future, he will be reviled by thousands of people!

"Yes." Shen Yu would not hide this from her, "The princess said that Peihua will come back sooner or later. Compared with the suspicion of the grassland people, the people of the motherland will always be more important."

Moreover, it would be beneficial to Pei Hua if this kind of news was spread back to the grassland. At least among the spies who helped Qi Rong and Pei Huaizhi pass the news, Huyan Yili would no longer doubt Pei Hua.

After all, Pei Hua became the one who personally reported her father.

"It is true that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages." Xia Houling nodded thoughtfully, and the two of them walked into the front hall, and someone brought a pot of hot tea.

Shen Yu glanced at the boy who was watching the tea calmly, "Actually, the princess did this to cover up her whereabouts."

People in the grassland have doubted her identity over and over again, especially since the last time the news of Huyan Yili sending troops was intercepted by Dasheng, Huyan Yili had doubted Chu Qingyan's identity.

Moreover, because of the news that Pei Huaizhi delivered to the grassland, two "Princesses of Lin'an" have been captured one after another.

Chu Qingyan's situation was not stable. If Peihua stepped forward to take the blame at this time, whether Huyan Yili believed it or not, it would divert his attention to some extent.

The boy finished pouring Shen Yu's tea and went to Xia Houling's side to refill it.

Xia Houling unconsciously glanced at the boy's hand and slowly withdrew his gaze, "Actually, the princess should have told you more than just this matter, right?"

The air became silent. After the waiter poured the tea, he left the front hall.

"General, he really knows everything, hahaha..."

As soon as the servant walked out of the room, Shen Yu couldn't wait to speak, "The princess also gave me a secret letter during this trip, which contained some details about the case of Beizhou Governor Shang Huan..."

"The princess specifically ordered me to present the secret message to Your Majesty in person. I'm afraid the general won't be able to listen to it anymore..."

"He's gone, stop pretending." Xia Houling threw back the tea in his hand, "It smells terrible, it smells like rust."

In front of her, no one who touches the sword can escape her discernment.

"You're neglecting General, I'll have someone bring a pot of good tea right away!" Shen Yu laughed.

But Xia Houling was obviously dissatisfied with his reaction. She sneered, "I'm acting with you, and you're just going to play this trick with me? To be honest, you don't have any secret messages at all, right?"

Her eyes were sharp, as if she had seen through it all at once.

She didn't necessarily know about other people, but if it was Shen Yu who couldn't hold it in, if he really had a secret message, he would have reported the secret message at the same time as Pei Huaizhi was exposed.

"General is really..."

Shen Yu helplessly raised his forehead, "Actually, I didn't want to hide it from you. After all, the princess told me something, but I specifically stated that I need General Xia's help!"

Even if it wasn't Chu Qingyan's order, Shen Yu also understood that Xia Houling just took the initiative to bring it up in front of that person, and that he was going to get involved with his own life.

"Hahaha!"

"I will treat other people's words as bullshit. If you want to talk about the princess, you'd better say it quickly." Xia Houling smiled heartily, and she was probably the only one in the entire Chang'an City who dared to say such words.

Shen Yu smiled and said, "General, please stay with me to perform a show."
