I really don't want to take shortcuts anymore

Chapter 141 Breaking the situation depends on one mouth
  Luo Qianhuai's posture was upright, his face was as cold as frost and snow, and he was not moved at all.

She didn't move, and Che Huai and the guards didn't dare to move either. The two sides remained in a stalemate for more than ten breaths.

Then Luo Qianhuai changed. Just like an extremely tight bowstring suddenly relaxed, the aura of a top expert around him suddenly disappeared.

When Luo Qianhuai took over his body, he was so tired that he didn't want to scold the system anymore.

Although she had been mentally prepared for the system to be shut down due to insufficient energy, she was still chilled by the fact that the timing was so accurate that her head was sent out of thin air.

But even so, she still had to work hard to save herself. Che Huai's words just now cannot be taken seriously. After all, Lord Yong'an has already said that she will die badly. And after that, the system hurt so many people, and the only thing they could do was to add to their sins, and there was no possibility of forgiveness.

And she never thought about entrusting her life completely to others.

"Commander Che." She glanced at the guard who was facing a formidable enemy: "Now that I don't have those burdens, if I want to leave, no one can stop me."

This is actually not bad. Although Che Huai's skills are average, his vision is very good. How can he not see that Luo Qianhuai's kung fu is top-notch?
  If he had thousands of troops and horses in his hands, or hundreds of powerful crossbows to surround and suppress, it would still be possible to keep people behind, but at this moment, the Yushan Garden is full of plans, and there are less than a hundred guards. If he wants to attack someone of this level, Masters are simply not enough to watch.

Luo Qianhuai could tell when his expression hesitated for a moment. The trick of pretending to be powerful was effective, which greatly boosted her confidence.

"But I don't want to leave just yet." Luo Qianhuai smiled calmly: "Please ask the commander of the car to retreat. I want to talk to you alone."

Seeing the look of resistance flashing in the other person's eyes, she added lightly: "Don't worry, if I want to do something to you, it doesn't matter whether they are here or not."

There seems to be nothing wrong with this. Che Huai's eyes changed a few times: "The heroine wants to discuss something, and Che is naturally happy to accompany her. But I have the responsibility of protecting the Lord, so I have to spare my life. If the heroine doesn't mind, can I feel aggrieved?"

He took a pair of heavy shackles handed over by his subordinate behind him and asked with a smile.

Luo Qianhuai knew he couldn't escape, but he continued to talk shamelessly: "Commander Che, do you think that something like this can trap me? It's just to show your sincerity, that's all."

Che Huai was overjoyed. The two guards immediately stepped forward and carefully locked Luo Qianhuai's hands and feet. Then he took a few deep breaths, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and stepped back.

This chain is really heavy, I'm afraid it weighs twenty pounds. Luo Qianhuai was complaining in his heart, but his face was calm and calm: "Commander Che should be relieved now. Please find a quiet place. I have something important to talk to you about."

Luo Qianhuai's performance before was so amazing, and now she was so calm and composed that Che Huai didn't realize that she was actually a paper tiger.

So he was also a little curious about what she wanted to say to him.

He took her to a clean and tidy room and asked his men to guard the door while he poured a cup of tea for Luo Qianhuai: "I haven't asked the heroine how to call her yet."

"The title is not important." Luo Qianhuai couldn't lift his wrist at all, so he could only pretend to be cold to avoid being exposed:
  "It's just that Commander Che, you seem to have forgotten who you belong to."

When His Majesty received his oral instructions in the morning, Che Huai was also present. When he heard Luo Qianhuai's words, his heart suddenly froze. He couldn't help but look at Luo Qianhuai a few more times: "You, are you..."

His reaction made Luo Qianhuai feel relieved. She just thought of what Han Min'er had said about His Majesty's abolition of the Princess's bodyguards, and she was trying to use it to deceive others.

Mr. Mo once told her before that most of the officials around the vassal kings in various places are His Majesty's people. Based on this, it can be inferred that the same should be true for the powerful ministers in Xijing.

By the same token, the guards of the Princess Mansion are also people who are eating from the public family, and may not be private slaves of each family. That's why she had the confidence to pretend and test it out, but she didn't expect that someone would actually fall for it.

Emperors of most dynasties have special secret service agencies, and it is impossible for the Emperor of Yu to do so.

She doesn't need to know the name of this organization, nor does she need to know what kind of token they have, she just needs to be vague and let Che Huai believe it.

Anyway, in this day and age, there are probably not many people who have the courage to pretend to be from that organization.

"That's right." Luo Qianhuai nodded: "Why did you think I came last night? I was ordered to collect evidence that Lord Yong'an was friends with the feudal king and was plotting evil."

"It's nothing!" Che Huai stood up angrily: "My Lord is loyal to His Majesty, and the sun can tell that there is absolutely nothing wrong with me!"

"Oh?" Luo Qianhuai glanced at him indifferently: "I was just following orders, why is Commander Che so excited? Could it be that you are also the guest of Princess Yong'an, and you are willing to risk your life and fortune to vouch for her? Can’t do it?”

"You!" Che Huai's face turned red, and the veins in his neck popped out. He leaned forward and held down the case with his arms: "Tell me, what have you found? How are you going to report it to the superiors?"

Luo Qianhuai still had an indifferent expression on his face, not caring about his attack at all: "No matter what I find out, I don't have to be responsible for you. If you are so concerned, is it possible that you want to kill people and silence them?"

When she said the last few words, her almond-shaped eyes were slightly narrowed and her eyebrows were raised slightly. In the firelight of the dark room, she could see an extremely confident look on her face.

This reminded Che Huai of her unfathomable skills. His blood instantly turned cold and he sat back dejectedly.

His complexion had now turned from red to white. He took a few deep breaths, and when he spoke again, he changed his title:

"Since your Excellency has come to see me, he must have a plan. Tell me, what do you need me to do?"

Che Huai's success was actually part of Luo Qianhuai's plan. Dayu does not pay attention to one person doing things and one person taking responsibility. Instead, executions are popular. Once found guilty, they are often punished by the clan. Anyone who has a family and a career is not afraid of it.

The most important thing is that His Majesty’s oral instructions this morning are a weather vane.

And she wasn't actually just talking nonsense, because the letter in her hand could really be used as evidence.

This was what she had just figured out when her brain was working at high speed in order to survive.

Princess Yong'an is the daughter of the emperor's eldest sister, so her cousin must be the emperor's son.

There is no crown prince in Dayu now, and all the older princes have already joined the vassal, so Han Min'er must not have been wronged by saying that she was in contact with the vassal king.

As for why writing a letter to his cousin has become a sin, it must be due to the history books Luo Qianhuai has read over the years.

Throughout the dynasties, princesses and ministers often had secret connections with vassal kings, and there was no emperor who didn't mind.

Judging from the current emperor of Dayu's strong desire for control, it is even more impossible to tolerate such behavior.
