The Sickly Beauty Substitute Called It Quits

At the end, Shang Junlin's voice was already filled with a strong chill.

King Li broke out with cold sweat on his forehead, and knelt down with a "poof": "I dare not!"

"I see how brave you are! If I didn't happen to meet you today, how would you plan to bully your gentleman?"

Shang Junlin walked behind Shen Yu in a few steps, and stretched out his hand to take the person into his arms: "I don't know that King Li and King Yue are so concerned about the private affairs of me and your lord."

The King of Yue had already knelt down, under the pressure of the emperor, he only dared to look at Shen Yu with his peripheral vision.

Shen Yu leaned in the arms of the tall man, his posture relaxed, and there was no trace of fear on his face.

He is really not afraid that Shang Junlin will know what happened to them in the first place!

The King of Yue finally understood this.

Has Shang Junlin already doted on Shen Yu so much? There was a dark color in the lowered eyes of King Yue.

"Who gave you the courage to bully my noble gentleman, eh?"

The surrounding palace servants had already knelt down, and Shang Junlin's slightly chilling voice sounded on the empty path. King Li buried his head firmly, and the clothes on his back were gradually soaked in cold sweat.

He couldn't figure out why Shang Junlin suddenly appeared here.

It was obvious that the informant he placed in the palace said that the emperor was discussing matters in the imperial study, would he come out for a while, and just when Shen Yu came out of the Yuzhang Palace alone, he came to block people.

King Li knew how difficult it was for Shang Junlin to deal with, so he wanted to start with Shen Yu, but he never thought that he would be caught by Shang Junlin.

"Your Majesty, I am guilty."

Under Shang Junlin's anger, King Li didn't even dare to intercede for himself, let alone think how much Shang Junlin listened to his threat to Shen Yu.

"My younger brother is convicted," said King Yue, who had been silent for a long time. "My younger brother just wanted to ask some things for a friend like your lord."

King Yue's words were also reminding Shen Yu that some things should not be said nonsense in front of the emperor.

Hearing this, Mu Xi glared at King Yue, daring to act or not, she was really a scumbag.

"His Royal Highness King Yue is really close to the people, but I don't know what the relationship between that friend and King Yue is. Is it worth the King Yue to take such a big risk to enter the palace for him?"

"minister……"

"The friend mentioned by His Royal Highness King Yue is not yourself, right? If King Yue has anything to ask me, just ask me directly, don't beat around the bush." ​​Shen Yu interrupted him.

King Yue was silent, Shen Yu thought well, he didn't dare to say those things in front of Shang Junlin.

Shang Junlin squeezed the gloomy hand, and deliberately asked in a low voice that both King Li and King Yue could hear: "Do you know what King Yue wants to ask you?"

His fingers curled up involuntarily, King Yue stared at the ground, a heart in his throat.

He was afraid that Shen Yu would say it, and in addition to being afraid, he also had some expectations, expecting Shen Yu to say it and admit the unspoken relationship.

"Maybe I want to ask why I agreed to enter the palace? Who knows." Shen Yu replied casually.

After taking a deep look at Shen Yu, Shang Junlin skipped the topic, "What about King Li, why did King Li find you?"

"minister……"

"Of course it's because of the queen's position."

The voices of the two of them sounded almost at the same time, and the gloomy words had already been said. King Li knew that it would be useless to hide it, so he simply shut his mouth.

"Your Majesty, don't you know that, in order to get me to agree to persuade you to accept your concubine, Prince Li has begun to threaten me with the fact that you accompany me to the Marquis of Zhenbei."

"This matter is indeed a misunderstanding by the minister, and the minister is willing to make amends to your lord." King Li had no choice but to confess his guilt. His Majesty was willing to admit that the person who was in the Marquis Mansion of Zhenbei that day was himself. If you don't let it go, you'll just make fun of yourself.

No matter who the person who appeared in Zhenbei Houfu with Shen Yu that day, when Shang Junlin opened his mouth, it could only be him.

King Li couldn't figure out what was good for Shen Yu to let the emperor face him like this.

Shang Junlin looked down at the two for a while, and said softly: "Come on, King Li and King Yue are disrespectful to the noble concubine, and they will stick a hundred."

"Your Majesty!" King Li raised his head in disbelief, "You want to blame your uncle for this demon concubine?!"

Shang Junlin lowered his eyes, and his voice was still calm: "You can also choose to enter the dark prison."

"Shen Yu, you demon concubine! Your Majesty! Your Majesty! You can't be so confused, I am your uncle!" King Li struggled.

"It's obviously Your Majesty who ordered, why did King Li blame me?" Feeling King Li's resentful gaze, the corners of his mouth twitched, "Since King Li has been punished, it's time to reflect on yourself."

"King Li, don't pretend to be stupid, no one is stupid, do you really think I don't know the real purpose of your coming to me? You want me to make way for you and your good niece, and don't even look at you. Do you deserve it?" Shen Yu smiled sarcastically.

"You...you..." King Li was thinking about it, and his face was flushed with anger. Seeing that King Yue had been silent, he couldn't help but say, "King Yue, don't you have anything to say? You just look at Shen Yu. Is it so beautiful?"

"Uncle Huang, this is indeed what we did wrong, and we deserve to be punished." King Yue didn't know why Shen Yu didn't expose him directly in front of Shang Junlin. Shen Yu was so crazy, no one knew what he would do next moment .

Now it's not that he is holding Shen Yu's handle, but Shen Yu is holding him, and he doesn't dare to gamble.

Shang Junlin hugged Shen Yu and walked to King Li with an indifferent tone: "I have warned you a long time ago, don't hit the idea that you shouldn't hit, don't think that I can tolerate you all your life."

King Li kept making small moves in private, and even tried to control him by interfering in the harem. Shang Jun had endured him for a long time.

The guards dragged the man away in the struggle of King Li, and His Majesty personally ordered that even if it was the king, the executioner would be correct.

Shen Yu was led by Shang Junlin to the imperial study.

"Have you been wronged?" Shang Junlin ordered someone to pour out hot tea and urged Shen Yu to drink it.

Shen Yu didn't expect that Shang Junlin's first sentence would be this. He thought that Shang Junlin would ask him about King Yue, so he was stunned.

Then he smiled, "Your Majesty came down in a timely manner, and I was not wronged."

In terms of grievances, Shen Yu felt that King Li and King Yue might be even more aggrieved.

"Why did your majesty pass by suddenly?" Shen Yu remembered that in the past two days, some things have been presented at the place, and Shang Junlin was a little busier than usual.

"I heard that someone reported that King Li and King Yue were staying in the palace, I plan to see what they are doing."

In fact, they were half-busted with government affairs. After listening to Yin Longwei's report, King Li and King Yue planned to trouble Shen Yu, so they rushed there on purpose.

"No matter what your Majesty's past, I still have to thank Your Majesty for helping me out of the siege." Shen Yu huddled in the warm and soft couch like a cat.

The soft couch was ordered by Shang Junlin to be placed in the imperial study, so that it was convenient for the depression to rest when he came over, which was incompatible with the overall cold and hard style of the imperial study.

At the beginning, Shang Junlin occupied the soft couch where Shen Yu was reading, and Shen Yu said casually, "Your Majesty has occupied my geography and you should make it up for me." The next day, there was an extra soft couch in the imperial study.

Later, Shen Yu discovered that not only the imperial study room, but wherever he might go, there is a comfortable place for him to rest.

"How can my noble lord be bullied by others?" Shang Junlin sat in front of the throne and continued to read the book.

Hearing Shang Junlin's words, Shen Yu felt a slight wave in his heart. In two lifetimes, only one Shang Junlin could stand in front of him unconditionally and shield him from all wind and rain.

"Your Majesty is so kind to me." This is not the first time Shen Yu has said this. Every time he says it, he feels more deeply than the last time.

The first time was probably just to let the supreme man in the world know that half of the meaning of pleasing him was in it, but in the following times, the insignificant impurities were removed little by little, leaving only the purest feelings.

Eunuch Meng had already been instructed to have hot food served in the imperial kitchen, and before Shen Yu sat down for a long time, a palace servant came up with the steaming food.

"It just so happened that it was time for dinner. Your Majesty, stay and dine with me."

With His Majesty's order in advance, the dishes in the imperial dining room are all Shen Yu's favorite flavors, and there are several snacks that meet Shen Yu's preferences, which Shen Yu has never eaten in Yuzhang Palace.

"Your Majesty, is there a new royal chef here in the imperial kitchen?" Shen Yu put a piece of Bai Nuo Nuo snack in his mouth, and squinted contentedly under the stimulation of the sweetness.

"It's a new style they've researched. If you like it, I'll let them serve you in the Yuzhang Palace." Shang Junlin was not very interested in sweets, so he ate the dishes in a bowl.

After eating with Shang Junlin for so long, Shen Yu found out that Shang Junlin didn't pursue food at all, and it was very easy to feed what he gave.

Shen Yu still remembered one time when he and Shang Junlin dined together. The taste of a certain dish presented by the imperial kitchen was very indescribable. Shen Yu only took one bite and didn't want to force himself to continue eating.

After that day, Shen Yu complained about Shang Junlin's taste for a long time. Since then, the two of them will eat together again, and they will always serve dishes that suit Shen Yu's taste.

"Why does Your Majesty send all good things to Yuzhang Palace?" Shen Yu bit his chopsticks, "If things go on like this, won't Yuzhang Palace become the richest palace in the palace?"

Shang Junlin: "The palace belongs to me, and your lord also belongs to me. It's just that you put things in a different place to make your lord please, and they can play their role."

Shen Yu: "Your Majesty is becoming more and more good at talking."

Shang Junlin frowned: "I'm telling the truth."

Shen Yu smiled without saying a word, so I said, sometimes casual love words are the most moving.

After the meal, Shen Yu and Shang Junlin lay on the soft couch, Shang Junlin sat upright, carefully criticized the book, Shen Yu leaned on his shoulder and read the book.

The words were found in the royal library, and it would be inaccurate to say that they were words. In fact, it was about the emotional history of the emperors of the past dynasties.

The history of the relationship between the kings of the merchants is really rich, and there are many tricks.

In comparison, Shang Junlin's emotional history is as clean as a blank sheet of paper. Compared with the kings of all dynasties, Shang Junlin is really out of place in the emotional aspect.

If Shen Yu remembered correctly, there seemed to be no one in Shang Junlin's harem in the previous life, except for Shen Qingran, who was trapped in the palace by him.

Even Shen Qingran in the previous life, after entering the palace, could see Shang Junlin only a handful of times, let alone have physical contact with Shang Junlin.

It is said that tyrants do not like touching. After Shen Qingran fled the palace in his previous life, he complained that once he accidentally touched Shang Junlin's arm and was banned for several days...

"What are you thinking about?" Shang Junlin looked away from the book and turned to see Shen Yu staring at him in a daze.

"I'm thinking of Your Majesty..." Shen Yu paused for a moment, and then he glanced at the book in Shang Junlin's hand, "Your Majesty is worried about the water control?"

"Yes," Shang Junlin didn't hide it, and handed the memorial in his hand in the direction of Shen Yu, so that he could see more clearly, "Is your honor interested?"

The memorial was presented from Linxian, which is located in the south of Dahuan. Due to the terrain, Dahuan has been affected by floods every year since the founding of the country.

Dahuan invested countless manpower and material resources into it before and after, but always had little effect. All emperors of Dahuan in all dynasties had worried about the incident in Linxian.

Shen Yu had witnessed the disaster in Linxian County with his own eyes in his previous life, and knew how tragic it would be. Later, with the help of Shen Qingran, the King of Yue made great achievements in water control, which was the beginning of the King of Yue reaching the peak of power.

Shen Yu has carefully studied the water control plan mentioned by Shen Qingran in his previous life, and it is indeed superior to any existing Da Huan. Some time ago, when Shen Yu was thinking about what birthday gift to give Shang Junlin, he suddenly thought of this.

He deliberately picked the days when Shang Junlin was not in the Yuzhang Palace, and silently remembered the plans one by one, and planned to give them to Shang Junlin. If he prepared in advance, it might not have been as tragic as in the previous life.

Today, I came up with the Yuzhang Palace on a whim, and I also planned to give the silent things to Shang Junlin.

"Your Majesty knows that I have been in poor health since I was a child, and I like to read miscellaneous books. A few days ago, I sorted out some useful things I read from books, thinking that Your Majesty might be able to use them."

Shen Yu took out a thin book from his arms, the book cover was blank, Shen Yu handed the book to Shang Junlin: "Your Majesty, take a look?"

Shang Junlin took the book, opened it, glanced at it, and stopped.

Without changing his face, he roughly read the content. The book was not long, and it didn't take long for Shang Junlin to read it. He closed the book and grabbed Shen Yu's arm slightly.

"Where did you read this content from?"

I have to say that the content in this book can play a big role. When he talked to Shen Yu about Linxian, it was not for the purpose of getting any advice from Shen Yu. He didn’t expect Shen Yu to give him such a big deal. surprise.

"Can you help Your Majesty?" Shen Yu didn't answer Shang Junlin's question. He couldn't tell Shang Junlin that he got it from Shen Qingran in his previous life, at least not now.

Looking at Shen Yu's expression, Shang Junlin knew that he wouldn't say it if he continued to ask, there are not one or two secrets on Shen Yu's body, and it doesn't matter if there is one more.

Shang Junlin was not in a hurry, suppressed a rare gaffe, and let go of his gloomy arm: "Your Majesty has really helped me a lot."

"This is a gift for Your Majesty, does Your Majesty like it?" Shang Junlin didn't get to the bottom of the source of the book, so he breathed a sigh of relief. Although he had thousands of ways to hide the past, he didn't want to deceive the businessman in this matter. Jun Rin.

"I like it very much." Shang Junlin's fingers holding the book kept tightening, the ink in his dark eyes rolled, and he quickly returned to calm.

"Your Majesty, I have another unkind request. When Your Majesty is discussing with the minister, can you please not mention this book from me?" Shen Yu thought for a while and made a request.

"You have presented such a useful method, it should be a big reward, really?" Shang Jun raised his eyebrows, is this still Shen Guijun who asked him for a reward because the maid was frightened?

"It's said that it's a birthday gift for His Majesty, so what's the reward?" Besides, the content written in the book did not come from him, and Shen Yu was not interested in falsely claiming credit from others.

It was also said in that book that many of the things that Shen Qingran brought out were the wisdom of future generations, and that Shen Qingran could shamelessly take these credits as his own, which did not mean that Shen Qing could also.

Shen Yu never bothered to ask for something that wasn't his own.

"When your birthday comes, I will also give you a big gift."

That day, Shang Junlin discussed matters in the imperial study until midnight, and when he returned to Yuzhang Palace, Shen Yu was already asleep. After taking off his coat and lying on the bed, Shen Yu searched for a source of heat and came over, and Shang Junlin hugged him and slowly closed his eyes.

The fact that King Li and King Yue were dragged out of the palace with injuries quickly spread among the upper-class circles in the capital. They were in the center of power, and the two princes were involved. The ministers privately speculated about what happened.

Without giving them too much time to guess, the palace issued an decree the next day. King Li and King Yue were ordered to think behind closed doors because of the collision with the emperor and noble monarch.

Those who heard the news looked at each other.

"King Li was disrespectful to His Majesty and your noble lord at the palace banquet. At that time, I felt that I might suffer. When His Majesty did not attack at the scene, I thought it was because of King Li's face, but I didn't expect..."

"King Li still makes sense, but what about King Yue? King Yue has always been honest, so he won't collide with the famous noble lord, right?"

"After being tortured by a cane and then fined to shut the door and think about it, all the face has been wiped out. Your Majesty really didn't show any sympathy."

"If you want me to say, King Li also deserves it. He has used the power of the dragon to make a fortune for several years. Who is that, Your Majesty, can he control it? Your Majesty is doing this to beat and beat him."

"The King of Yue was also punished, which is really confusing."

"What's so hard to figure out? I heard that King Yue and King Li have met several times in private. Maybe they were secretly planning something and His Majesty noticed."

In the capital, there is no shortage of discussions on these matters. The voices from outside reached the ears of King Li and King Yue through the mouths of people with a heart.

The two of them had a lot of temper in the mansion, and the people who served them were trembling for several days, not daring to make the slightest mistake.

The matter of King Yue and King Li sounded the alarm for other royal families. The vassal kings who returned to the capital pushed the entertainment one by one, and stayed in the mansion honestly, praying that the day of returning to the fief would come soon.

Because of this incident, the last group of people who wanted to persuade Shang Junlin to choose a concubine also rested their minds. Who didn't know that King Li was unable to send his niece into the palace, so he forged a son with Shen Guijun.

How can outside the palace affect the inside of the palace, after listening to Mu Xi's report on the situation outside the palace, Shen Yu casually retracted his gaze.

"How is Zhuangzi Shang?" Shen Yu handed the flowers he picked to the palace servant behind him and asked.

"It's business as usual," Mu Xi took a few steps forward and approached Shen Yu, lowering his voice, "Young Master, the servants from Zhuangzi dragged the servants to give you a message, and the Zhu Mian you asked for has been opened."

"Really? You tell them, I'll find time to check it out."

Zhu Mian refers to the things that Shen Yu ordered before entering the palace, and the blooming of flowers means that the things he ordered have been done.

If you want to say that the only disadvantage of entering the palace is that it is here, it is too inconvenient to communicate with outside the palace. His power has not yet developed, and it is always too inconvenient to be unable to personally command.

It seems that I still have to find a way to go out of the palace alone, or take Shang Junlin to Zhuangzi for a circle.

"Your Majesty, it's not good," the palace servant rushed over in a panic, "Niang Niang is looking for a short meeting in the palace, and she insists on seeing you."

"No one is stopping her?" Shen Yu frowned. He didn't ask any questions about these late emperor's concubines after he brought them back to the Yuzhang Palace, except that they were not allowed to step out of the room and were not allowed to contact outsiders. already?

"Stop it, the servants can't stop it." The palace servant said anxiously.

"Do you know what happened?"

"I don't know, the slaves are going to deliver meals to several goddesses today as usual, and I bumped into the jade goddess hanging on the beam with white silk..."

The palace man explained and walked towards the destination with depression.

Before he got close, he heard the noise in the yard, Shen Yu quickened his pace, frowned and looked at the messy small yard.

"Stop! Your Majesty is here!" The little **** who followed Shen Yu stepped forward and scolded, "What are you doing? What kind of chaos are you doing?"

"Miss Jade, didn't you say you want to see your gentleman? Your gentleman has already come." The palace servant who led the way to Shen Yu said loudly.

"Your Majesty, the concubine knows it's wrong, the concubine is willing to say anything, please let your concubine let go!" Empress Yu pushed away the palace servants who blocked her, walked a few steps to Shen Yu, and knelt down.

"Oh? Could it be that you collectively seduce Your Majesty for another secret?" Shen Yu asked calmly.

"Your majesty, your concubine is really not voluntary!" Empress Yu kowtowed a few times, "Chen and concubine are willing to say anything, just ask your lord to save the life of the minister and concubine."

Shen Yu narrowed his eyes and instructed: "Mu Xi, clear out the unimportant people in the yard, and send someone to invite His Majesty over by the way. Remember, don't spread the news."

"The slaves obey."

In a blink of an eye, the yard was empty. When Shen Yu brought people back, he arranged them in different places. It was originally to prevent these emperors and concubines from communicating with each other, but now it is cheaper for him.

"Go into the room and talk." Shen Yu walked into the room and sat on the main seat, several palace servants stood beside him, and Mu Xi stood on his right.

"You said you wanted me to save your life, what happened?"

Madam Yu couldn't hide her panic, and looked around nervously before she whispered, "Your Majesty, someone is going to kill me."

"Kill you?" Mu Xi wondered, "The Yuzhang Palace is heavily guarded. You live here is much safer than where you lived before, why would anyone want to kill you?"

"My concubine doesn't dare to lie. I woke up several times in the middle of the night and felt that someone was standing beside the bed, holding something in their hands, staring at my concubine with cold air," Niangniang Yu swallowed, "I am very scared. , I dare not open my eyes to see what's going on."

"Then how did you know someone was going to kill you?"

"It was the concubine who inadvertently noticed that the man was holding a dagger." Empress Yu was about to be frightened. Before she entered the palace, she was at most an ordinary girl with some scheming. The person was real or fake, and the next day began to make trouble.

She didn't know why the man didn't kill him a few times before, and she didn't dare to bet on whether that man would kill him in the future. She agreed to that thing, and she knew that if it couldn't be completed or it fell into the hands of the emperor, she would not end up. would be great.

Now, before her plan was implemented, she was accidentally imprisoned by Shen Yu in Yuzhang Palace. If there was no accident, the mission was destined to be impossible to complete. She had every reason to believe that the person would solve her one step ahead of time so that she would not tell the secret.

"Your Majesty, the concubine really didn't lie!"

"I know." When Shen Yu planned to bring everyone to the Yuzhang Palace, he thought about what to do if the people behind the scenes directly attacked these people in order not to expose them. Shang Junlin also asked Yinlongwei to pay attention to this side. The movement, if someone really wants to do it, it will definitely be discovered at the first time.

That person didn't kill Empress Yu for a long time, maybe he was worried about this, and...

If that person has been undiscovered, it is most likely the person who was serving in the yard.

Shen Yu thought of Shang Junlin's order to follow Yin Longwei next to him, and wondered if he could make a move.

He tentatively shouted in the way Shang Junlin usually instructs Yinlongwei, and a man in a black suit quietly appeared in the room.

"What is your order?"

It seems to be able to call.

"You have to keep people in the hospital, don't let anyone leave here, if someone behaves abnormally, directly control them." Shen Yu ordered.

"Yes." After speaking, the man in black disappeared.

Yin Longwei's ability is gloomy and trustworthy, and he is a little relieved. If he doesn't handle it well this time, I am afraid that he will really be shocked.

"Tell me everything you know." Shen Yu rested one hand on the armrest and looked down calmly.

"It started ten years ago..."

Ten years ago, the throne changed and a new monarch ascended the throne, representing the era of the previous emperor completely over. Soon after the new emperor ascended the throne, the border was in an emergency.

For a long time, the palace was unowned.

The new emperor left the dynasty too quickly, the handover of power was incomplete, and the old forces and the new forces were fighting together.

The sudden departure of the late emperor left behind a group of concubines and immature princes, and among them there were many young girls who had just entered the palace and were powerless and powerless.

Someone approached them secretly and asked them to find a way to stay in the palace.

"In the beginning, that person sent a lot of gold and silver jewelry and gorgeous jewelry. He just said that he couldn't bear to see the misery we lived in the palace. Later, he occasionally asked us to do some trivial things, or spread some news outside the palace. It is a very small matter, even if it is discovered, it will not endanger life."

"A few years later, His Majesty returned to the court, and spent more and more time in the palace. That person asked us to find a way to approach His Majesty, saying, it is best to become His Majesty's person."

"He has a big appetite, how can he be sure that His Majesty will accept you?" The most incomprehensible place for Shen Yu is here, no matter how beautiful and young these women are, they can't hide the fact that they are the concubines of the former emperor.

"Maybe they think that I will be the same as the previous emperor, and I will not avoid meat and vegetables."

Shang Junlin's unsalty voice came from the door, Shen Yu looked up, and saw a tall man wearing a golden dragon robe with a mysterious bottom, walking in step by step against the light.

"Your Majesty came down so fast." Shen Yu stood up to greet him.

"I saw the anxious face of the person you sent to call me, so I came directly. What happened?" Shang Junlin led Shen Yu to the high seat.

Shen Yu explained the news he had just received one by one, "Just ask these for now."

Shang Junlin sat on the main seat, rubbed his gloomy wrist, and said lightly, "Continue."

The next thing was very simple. The man kept sending them things through the palace servants, asking them to do some "inconspicuous little things", and then ordering them to find a way to get close to the emperor.

"Originally, that person was not so obsessed with letting us get close to His Majesty. Later, when your noble entered the palace, that person, for some unknown reason, gave us a death order, so that we must find a way to become His Majesty's people..."

"You don't know who gave you the order?" Shen Yu asked.

"I don't know, he has always passed news to us through the palace servants, and has never seen us in person."

"Who are the palace servants who passed the news to you?"

"Little noble son, Aunt Fan, magpie..."

Shen Yu silently wrote down these names, "Then do you know who else listens to his orders like you?"

Empress Yu reported several names.

Shen Yu and Shang Junlin looked at each other, their eyes were a little dignified, Lin Zhilan was not among the people who came out of Empress Yu.

"What do you think of your majesty?" Shang Jun asked coldly after ordering someone to take Empress Yu down.

"Either Lady Yu didn't know about Lin Zhilan's existence, or it was not the same person who controlled them." Shen Yu preferred the latter.

"Your Majesty's palace is really a 'Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon'." Shen Yu teased.

"Then you will have to work hard to give me a 'clean' palace." Shang Jun squeezed his gloomy cheeks.

Shen Yu covered his face, preventing Shang Junlin from succeeding, "Is there any progress over there, Your Majesty?"

"Lin Zhilan revealed some information, but based on these, it is not enough to catch the person behind the scenes." Because Shen Yu was involved in the matter from the beginning, Shang Junlin didn't plan to hide it from him.

"First arrest the person identified by Empress Yu, maybe there is some connection between the two." After thinking about it, Shen Yu suggested.

"What you said makes sense."

Shang Junlin took out a waist token: "This is for your lord. If you have something to tell Yinlongwei, you can use this token."

The whole body of the token was pitch-black, with dark red patterns engraved on it. Shen Yu took it and touched it. There were small bumpy characters on the back, and the font was unrecognizable.

"Why did Your Majesty give me this all of a sudden?"

"Your Majesty helps me to do things, and I have to say something. At most, I can only mobilize a team of Hidden Dragon Guards. You can accept it with peace of mind."

Shang Junlin had other things to do, so he left after finishing his orders.

Back in the bedroom, Shen Yu took out the pitch-black token and looked at it carefully.

The token that can order Yinlongwei, but Shang Junlin gave him the token so easily, and the gloomy mood is a bit complicated.

But he didn't have much time to think about it, and he had to deal with the follow-up troubles caused by the Empress Yu.

According to the news of the other people revealed by Empress Yu, Shen Yu ordered Hidden Longwei to check, and none of these people had the same thing as Empress Yu.

This is good news, and shows that the penetration of the people behind the scenes is much lower than he thought.

Yin Longwei moved quickly, and it didn't take long to find out the suspicious person in Empress Yu's courtyard based on clues. As expected, it was a little **** who had been serving in the side courtyard.

Shen Yu didn't spend much time to see this person. He specialized in the art industry. He believed that Yin Longwei could ask useful information from this person.

Everything was done in secret, and thanks to the slanted yard where Empress Yu lived, not many people felt the shock, and after Shen Yu gave the order, no one dared to say a word.

Since Shang Junlin's last major cleanup, the connection between the palace and the palace has been cut off a lot. Aristocratic families such as the Zhang family who dared to reach out to the palace have been dealt with, and the remaining ones who were lucky not to be found are shrunk. Get up, don't dare to stand up.

"If it weren't for the fact that your lord unexpectedly imprisoned these manipulated emperors and concubines into the Yuzhang Palace, the people behind the scenes would not have revealed their actions." Shang Jun held the black chess in his hand, blocking the way out of the white chess pieces.

"Has Your Majesty found out?" Shen Yu pondered for a while, then dropped white.

"Your chess skills really opened my eyes."

On the chessboard, the black chess pieces and the white chess pieces were killed in darkness. You will lose the whole game.

"I've already made meritorious deeds, why doesn't Your Majesty know to let me?" Shen Yu held the white chess and complained.

The chess piece made of white jade was sandwiched between the slender fingers of the young man. It was impossible to tell whether the jade was more beautiful or the hand was more beautiful. Shang Junlin's eyes moved with the movements of the young man's fingers. ...

"Your Majesty, you lost."

Qingyue's voice pulled back Shang Junlin's thoughts, and he couldn't help laughing as he watched the situation on the chessboard turned around by Shen Yu with one son: "I admit defeat."

"Your Majesty seems to be in a good mood today." Shen Yu took the hot drink from Mu Xi, took a sip, and narrowed his eyes comfortably.

"Why?" Shang Junlin looked away from the chessboard.

"Today, I cheated and won your majesty, and I didn't see your majesty angry."

Shang Junlin laughed: "When have I ever been angry with you?"

Shen Yu thought for a while, it seems that since entering the palace until now, Shang Junlin doesn't seem to be really angry with him, so he changed the subject and said: "Mu Xi, bring a bowl of hot drink to your majesty, and let your majesty taste Yuzhang palace small. Something new in the kitchen."

Mu Xi quickly brought up a bowl. Shen Yu likes to drink this recently, and the small kitchen has always been prepared.

Shang Junlin has never been picky about food, he tasted it and commented: "Not bad."

"It seems really good to be rewarded by His Majesty," Shen Yu finished drinking and put the small bowl aside, "I will prepare a copy for His Majesty in the future."

Mu Xi wrote it down.

Shang Junlin finished drinking slowly and said, "That little **** knows a lot."

Shen Yu: "Your Majesty, speak quickly."

Shang Junlin: "There is a huge network of relationships in the palace. It has existed since the time of the emperor's reign. Now, there are many palace people involved, but most of them obey orders and do not know their allegiance. Who the person is, only a few people know the identity of that person, and the little **** caught in the Yuzhang Palace just happened to know."

Shen Yu: "Is he a core member?"

Shang Junlin: "No, he knows this because his master told him."

Shen Yu: "Master? Who is his master?"

Shang Junlin: "It's the original **** in charge of Yuzhang Palace."

Shen Yu finally understood why the people behind the scenes chose this little **** to do it. After two cleanings by Shang Junlin, Yuzhang Palace will only be more difficult to install than other places. Maybe the little **** is the only choice.

"Has that **** been disposed of?"

"Yes, I found him the first time. He does things for more than one person." It was just that Shang Junlin didn't expect that there were other people hiding in the dark.

"Your Majesty, who is it?"

"It's King Huaiyu." Shang Jun's eyes deepened.

"King Huaiyu? The King Huaiyu who has never been ill since he failed to compete with the previous emperor for the throne?" Shen Yu recalled, there is not much about this person in the memory of the previous life, until the king of Yue ascended the throne, this person was huddled in In his own mansion, there is no action.

"Yes," Shang Jun frowned, "Before the late emperor ascended the throne, King Huaiyu was the most popular candidate for a new emperor, but for some reason, he chose to withdraw voluntarily. After the late emperor ascended the throne, he was granted permission to stay in the capital for medical treatment."

Shen Yu: "This is understandable. Instead of letting the tiger return to the mountain, it's better to watch it under your nose. After all, it's someone who almost got to that position."

"What do you think I should do?"

"Didn't your majesty have made a decision long ago?" Shen Yu and him looked at each other, and there was a tacit understanding in their eyes.

Huaiyu Palace.

The thin man was lying on the low table, opposite a middle-aged man with a white face and no beard, speaking in a slightly shrill voice.

"Your Highness has been exposed, what are your plans next?"

"Isn't this what your master wants to see? Why are you still asking me?" King Huaiyu's voice was hoarse, and he didn't like the person who came.

"Master asked me to give this thing to you, saying that you can understand the master's intentions when you see it."

A dark red box was placed on the table. Knowing that he was not welcome, the middle-aged man didn't stay long and got up to leave.

After a long time, hoarse laughter came from the room.

Not long after the middle-aged man left, a team of well-trained Imperial Guards surrounded the not luxurious residence of Prince Huaiyu.

In the evening, Shen Yu finished copying two pages of the book before waiting for Shang Junlin.
