Hidden Sky Light

The initiator of the whole incident was Chen Xian, which involved Tan Jin, Harmiya, Lei Gengsheng, and Shen Ying.

Step by step, good at calculation, and concealed from everyone.

But what Chen Xian didn't expect was that she not only begged for it from Huaicheng, but also stayed with Shen Ci.

So Chen Xian fled immediately after seeing her and Shen Ci.

Chen Xian was not afraid of her escaping, but because he saw Shen Ci and thought that Shen Ying had told Shen Ci everything, he was afraid that he would not escape immediately and would never have the chance to escape again.

She and Shen Ci both thought wrong at that time...

But Shen Ci really shouldn't have just returned to Pingnan County to visit his aunt at that time.

Chen Ling looked at Shen Ying, "What about Shen Ci? How could Shen Ci appear in Pingnan County at that time? Even if Miaocheng shares Huaicheng and Qucheng are two directions, but Miaocheng is near Huaicheng and Qucheng, Knowing the accident, Shen Ci will rescue the car as soon as possible... Shen Ying, I don't believe in such a coincidence, Shen Ci will go to Pingnan County at that time, and you arranged it."

Shen Ci told me that you said Mrs. Pingnanhou missed him and Shanhai's birthday, so Shen Ci came to Pingnan County to visit her aunt.

Shen Ying lowered her head and did not shy away, "It was Caomin who brought Shen Ci back, and he also thought that he could take Shen Ci's hand to save His Majesty, then no one would doubt the Shen family anymore; but I didn't expect Tan Jin to bet everything, and there was no food or grass. When everything was ready, he acted in Huaicheng ahead of time, so although Shen Ci caught up, he almost lost his life."

Shen Ying continued, "So Tan Jin wanted to take Shen Ci's life, because Tan Jin ignored that Shen Ci was my second brother earlier, but he reacted and asked Tan Siwen and Lou Chi to hunt down His Majesty and Shen Ci..."

Chen Ling also remembered the bloodstains and scars all over Shen Ci's body when he was in Fuyang, his anger was like a gossamer, and he was dazedly calling "A Ling", Chen Ling swallowed hard.

Hearing Shen Ying in front of him again, "Your Majesty, Shen Ci was not involved from the beginning to the end, and I don't know the ins and outs. I hope Your Majesty sticks to Shen Ci's desperate escort, saves the relationship between Your Majesty and the Prince, and keeps the Shen family alive. "Shen Xingyun, it's up to His Majesty to deal with it."

Chen Ling did not make a decision, and asked, "Since you know that rebellion will have such consequences, and let Shen Ci rush back, why did you stay with Lei Geng in the first place. Since you have the heart of rebellion, Don't you need to let Shen Ci come back to this muddy water again?"

In Chen Ling's eyes, Shen Ying slowly raised her head and said in a low voice, "Does your majesty believe it? Back then, the teacher insisted on believing that the orphan of the late prince was alive, and he also kept his mind on it. The teacher went to see the orphan, but His Majesty only knew about what happened later, it was completely out of control, and there was no turning back... From that moment on, Caomin knew that he could only remedy it."

Chen Ling didn't answer.

In Shen Ying's mouth, from beginning to end, Shen Ying has indeed done everything he can, but he may be implicated by Lei Gengsheng, or he may be involved in this game set up by Chen Xian for no reason, but he did participate in the rebellion. Also participated in collaborating with the enemy and treason...

This is the truth.

This matter has a wide range of implications. The Shen family was a century-old family of Yanhan earlier, especially when the old man Shen was alive, it was very prosperous for a while, and even tied with the Pingnan Houfu and Jianping Houfu, and several children were placed together. Sorting at different places, the intertwined relationship among them can be seen.

Shen Ying's aunt is still Mrs. Pingnan Hou...

If something happened to the Shen family, many aristocratic families in Yan Korea would be affected, and Shen Ying knew very well.

Therefore, knowing that Harmiya was led to Yaocheng, if Harmiya was captured, he would be exposed, but he at least bought time, and he needed time to distance himself from the Shen family.

From the very beginning, he had planned to save the Shen family, Shen Ci and Shen Shanhai...

Right now, Harmia should have escaped from Yanhan, so she has no time to care about Shen Ying, and Harmia is always a foreigner. Even if Harmia really wants to bite Shen Ying and not let go, no one may believe it.

But Chen Xian is different. Once this mouse **** bites Shen Ying and doesn't let go, the Shen family will fall into the abyss.

This time Tan Jin missed because of Shen Ci; Shen Ying stabbed Harmiya in the back again; with Chen Xian as a person, when he recovers, he will definitely hold on to Shen Ying and pull the Shen family into the water .

She is the Son of Heaven, and what she wants is not only Shen Ci alone.

She also has to consider if something goes wrong, the Pingnan Marquis Mansion where the Shen family and the Shen family are implicated, as well as the intertwined family behind the Shen family and the relationship between the DPRK and China, the DPRK and China will be stable and the country will be stable...

Chen Ling raised his eyebrows, "Who is behind Chen Xian?"

Even if Chen Xian is so powerful, he can't do so many things alone, and he won't become so powerful overnight. There are people behind Chen Xian who come up with ideas.

Perhaps Shen Ying was clear about this matter.

In other words, Tan Jin and Lei Gengsheng are dead, apart from Harmiya and Chen Xian, Shen Ci is the most likely to know.

Hearing the emperor asked here, Shen Ying said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, Caomin doesn't know who is behind Chen Xian, but what Caomin can tell His Majesty is that Harmia once said something in front of Caomin, and Chen Xian shared with Baal. There is a relationship..."

Barr? !

Chen Ling was slightly surprised, but he has been in a high position for a long time and will not be easily revealed.

So in Shen Ying's eyes, the Son of Heaven was not surprised.

And Chen Ling quickly thought that what Shen Ying said was right, and Barr was profitable in it...

Both Tan Jin and Tanzhou garrisoned troops are the most feared of the iron cavalry in the country of Baer, ​​and because there are Tan Jin and Tanzhou garrisoned troops, Baer has only had a small friction in the north in recent years, and they are mostly in peace.

At present, Tan Jin has been executed for his treason, the Tanzhou defenders are torn apart, and the fisherman who benefits is Baal...

Chen Xian can even win over Harmiya, and so can Barr.

Chen Xian went all the way north to seek Baal's asylum.

For this throne, Chen Xian did everything he could!

In Chen Ling's thoughts, Shen Ying kowtowed again, "Your Majesty, what Caomin knows has already been told to Your Majesty, Caomin's grandfather is a soldier and is loyal to the country; although my father is very old, because of the root of the disease that fell on the battlefield in his early years, he has always been punished. Tortured by illness; his wife is gentle and ignorant of world affairs; the children in the mountains and seas are all innocent; there is also Zi An, who died in Fuyang County... The Shen family, except for the grass-roots, are all innocent people involved, the grass-people do things one by one. Take care, Your Majesty is kind and kind, and I also ask Your Majesty to leave the Shen family a way to survive..."

"How do you know that I am benevolent?" Chen Ling wanted to say that she was not benevolent.

Shen Ying said, "Because over the years, His Majesty has never dealt with the teacher, even if the teacher is prejudiced..."

Chen Ling looked at him.

Shen Ying also raised his head, "So, Caomin knows that the first prince must not have been moved by His Majesty, and the teacher's prejudice is deeply rooted because the person who took the seat in the Eastern Palace is His Majesty; but in the past few years after the late Emperor's death, it was obvious to all in the court - His Majesty was Mingjun, Yanhan needs Mingjun..."

These words came from Shen Ying's mouth. Chen Ling did not expect that Chen Ling changed the subject, "Shen Ying, as long as Chen Xian is there, the Shen family will be pushed to the forefront sooner or later."

Shen Ying affirmed, "Your Majesty, everything that Caomin should be cleaned up has been cleaned up, and as long as Caomin dies without proof, no one will be able to pursue it."

Shen Ying kowtowed again, "I hope Your Majesty will be fulfilled."

Chen Ling's eyes dimmed, and he said solemnly, "Okay, Shen Xingyun, I will fulfill you. Come on."

Qi Shan entered.

Chen Ling said in a low voice, "Put Shen Ying into the death row of Dali Temple, and wait for the fate of the matter. This matter is kept secret and will not be disclosed to others."

Although Qishan didn't know the reason, after seeing Shen Ying for so long, his posture had not changed, and he should have been kneeling in front of the emperor. The Son of Heaven would not be accommodating to others for no reason, and Shen Ying should have offended the Son of Heaven.

The death row is not like the place next to it, it is still the death row in Dali Temple.

Whoever went in, there were not many people who came out. They saw no light, were isolated from the world, and died without distinction.

Shen Ying is the elder brother of General Shen. Right now, the young son of the Shen family is still in the palace...

Qi Shan was apprehensive.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Shen Ci kowtowed again.

***

The hall was quiet, and Chen Ling sat alone in the Lihe Hall for a long time.

When Qishan turned back, he told Chen Ling that people had already been put on death row in Dali Temple, and he didn't say anything else.

After a long time, Chen Lingcai asked again, "Where are the mountains and seas?"

Qishan responded to the name of a palace, which was a palace adjacent to Chaoyang Hall.

"Take me to see." Chen Ling ordered.

"Yes!" Qi Shan led the way.

...

Today is the first day of the new year. When I was pacing from the Lihe Palace to the Luoyun Palace, firecrackers and fireworks were still being set off outside the palace walls to celebrate.

Inside the palace wall, Chen Ling could see it.

When Shen Ying entered Beijing at this time, he should have left at the beginning of the twelfth lunar month.

At the beginning of the twelfth month, the letter from Shen's resignation from the border should have just been delivered to the Shen family, and Shen Ying decided to leave and come to Beijing. Earlier, Shen Ying should have wanted to spend the last year at home with his family before entering Beijing to plead guilty.

Shen Ci's sudden departure from Beijing was unexpected for Shen Ying.

Once Shen Ci returns to the border, Shen Ying doesn't know how long it will take for him to return to Beijing, but Shen Ying knows very well that it can only be done when the emperor still remembers Shen Ci giving up his life to **** him.

Chen Ling sighed in his heart, what a pity.

In fact, Shen Ying is the one with delicate thoughts and methods...

Chen Ling seemed to suddenly remember something, and stopped slightly at his feet.

Qishan has been serving the emperor for the longest time, and he can hear the clues by listening to the footsteps of the emperor. Qi Shan originally walked in front with the lantern, but when the emperor stopped behind him, Qi Shan also quickly stopped, "Your Majesty?"

"It's alright." Chen Ling said, and asked by the way, "Has Shanhai slept?"

Qishan nodded, "I slept, but I heard that I only slept. I had been asking my father earlier, and I must have been drowsy, but I couldn't do anything about it... But now I am coaxing him to sleep."

Chen Ling replied softly, "Okay."

The time has passed.

When Chen Ling went, he didn't let the palace man hold the lamp. Children's sleep varies from deep to shallow, and some children cry for a long time once interrupted.

At the moment, through a clear light behind the screen, Chen Ling took a seat in front of Shanhai.

Shan Hai slept well, but his temperament was more lively and active than A Nian, and he was not honest in sleeping at night. Because there was charcoal in the room, it was warm, and his entire thigh was placed outside the quilt, sandwiching the quilt.

——Caomin brought mountains and seas to Beijing because he wanted to adopt them under the name of Zi'an.

I have to say that Shen Ying is a very smart person.

He let Shanhai adopt the name of Shen Ci, not for Shanhai's future wealth, but because if Shanhai is adopted to Shen Ci, it is Shen Ci's son, even if the Shen family's affairs are brought up again in the future, as long as Shen Ci is still there There is a place in the DPRK, and the mountains and seas are stable...

If the first prince didn't die, Shen Ying would most likely make a move.

But when the first prince died, Shen Ying knew very well in his heart that because of Lei Gengsheng, even if he entered the official position, he would not have much future.

But even so, he avoided others, but still did not escape Lei Gengsheng.

And Lei Gengsheng knew that his student was unwilling, but he was stunned, and he needed someone to support him, so he took Shen Ying's trust and love for him and pulled Shen Ying into the water.

Lei Gengsheng is the most selfish one.

Not only stupid, pedantic, but also selfish...

Therefore, the father and emperor did not insist on keeping Lei Gengsheng in the court. The most important thing for the ruler is to know people and employ people. When Lei Gengsheng is in a favorable situation, he can use it how he wants; but in a headwind situation, all the Weaknesses are exposed.

So in the end, the father asked the teacher to be the prince's grandfather, and abandoned Lei Gengsheng.

The teacher is much more sober than Lei Gengsheng.

It's not surprising that Lei Gengsheng would burn himself to death. He prides himself on being honest and upright all his life, but in the end, he was used to play tricks around him, and he also led wolves into the house...

How many banned troops, garrisoned troops, and implicated civilians died in the country?

If Shen Ci knew that Xue Chao's death was because of Harmiya, but also thought that it was because of Lei Gengsheng and Shen Ying that Harmiya had entered the Yanhanjing smoothly, what would Shen Ci do?

Back to the beginning again.

She is the Son of Heaven, and she can protect Shen Ying.

But once Shen Ying was exposed, neither the Shen family nor Shen Ci could keep it.

Shen Ying is very smart, knows what she wants, and what he has...

Chen Ling sat on the edge of the bed to watch the time, then got up, and instructed again, "Take care, don't catch a cold at night, and when Shanhai wakes up tomorrow, bring him to see me."

"Yes."

"Your Majesty, are you going back to the dormitory?" Qi Shan asked.

Qishan knew that today's events could not be spread out, so there was no fake sidekick, he was taking care of it.

"Go to Chaoyang Palace." Chen Ling said.

Qishan should be fine.

When they arrived at Chaoyang Palace, the maid originally wanted to call Mommy Fang, but Chen Ling said, "No, I'll go see the Crown Prince."

It's been a while, and A Nian has already fallen asleep.

She didn't disturb Ah Nian, but sat on the edge of the bed, thinking about something while watching Ah Nian fall asleep.

She had a lot of things to think about tonight, one by one, all gathered together.

Shen Ying's matter is too involved, if the teacher knows, there must be no room for recovery.

Shen Ying's decision today was made after careful consideration.

On the other hand, who is the person behind Chen Xian?

Barr, or someone from the DPRK?

When the eldest grandfather was alive earlier, he reminded her that Yanhan's position was surrounded by wolves, so at that time, the great grandfather could divide the world with the Zhao family equally, but he still chose to maintain the unity of Yanhan and Han, and called himself the Zhao family.

The family, the country, the world, the country is prosperous and the people are safe.

Because Yan Han was torn apart, he couldn't deal with the tigers and wolves around him.

For her, too.

She is Chen Ling, the emperor of Yan Han.

She wants to defend the country of Yanhan and the country of Yanhan.

On the contrary, Shen Ying's incident sounded the alarm for her. Whether it was Xi Rong or Baal, the tentacles had begun to slowly reach into Yan Korea.

***

The next morning, Anian woke up, rubbed his eyes half-dream and half-awake, saw that it was Chen Ling, and fell asleep on his side, "Father?"

Chen Ling woke up.

Seeing the glutinous rice **** in front of him, he remembered watching him fall asleep last night, and Chen Ling himself didn't know when he fell asleep.

"Father, why are you here so early?" Anian asked.

Chen Ling replied, "If I miss you, I'll come and see."

Anian reached out and hugged her.

Chen Ling also reached out and touched the top of his head.

Anian asked, "Father, are you going to the Holy Water Temple to pray for blessings today?"

Chen Ling just made a light hum, and another inner courtier entered and said in his ear, "Your Majesty, the young son of the Shen family is awake, and your majesty asked him to bring the young son to see your majesty last night."

Chen Ling agreed, and said to Anian, "A Nian, the father has something to do, wait for it."

Anian nodded.

But just as Chen Ling got up, Anian asked curiously, "Father, who is the young son of the Shen family?"

He just heard it.

Chen Ling didn't hide it from him, "Shen Ci's nephew."

A Nian was pleasantly surprised, "Uncle Shen's nephew?"

Well, Chen Ling said softly.

A Nian suddenly said happily, "Is he here to be my companion?"

Chen Ling was surprised.

A Nian continued, "Didn't the royal father say that there will be companions in the palace after the new year? I want Uncle Shen's nephew to be the companions!"

Chen Ling: "..."

***

In the outer hall, Shen Shanhai greeted him, "Shen Shanhai has seen His Majesty, long live His Majesty."

The etiquette and articulation are very clear, and it should have been carefully taught by Shen Ying.

"Get up." Chen Ling said warmly.

Shen Shanhai just got up, but still stood upright in front of the emperor.

Shen Ci often mentioned mountains and seas in front of Chen Ling. Chen Ling was no stranger to him. He was naughty, active, and rampant, but he was also short-handed. His temperament was very similar to Shen Ci, which made Anian very gentle.

"How old is it?" Chen Ling asked.

"Go back to Your Majesty, eight years old."

"Have you studied?" Chen Ling was gentle, and Shen Shanhai was gradually less restrained than before, "After reading, I listen to my father and son's class in a private school, sometimes it's my father."

"Come back and listen to me?" Chen Ling asked.

Shen Shanhai immediately began to recite aloud, but he forgot about it, scratching his head and laughing in embarrassment, like Shen Ci...

Chen Ling narrowed his eyes.

***

The sun passed by day by day, and the first month passed in a blink of an eye.

Throughout the first month, many things happened in the DPRK.

For example, the middle-aged Guan Xiumu didn't slow down, and finally came to an end at the end of the first month, and resumed his earlier busyness.

Another example, the emperor took the lead in moving the Ministry of Household.

The Spring Festival just started, and the Ministry of Personnel started with the Ministry of Household, and transferred the servants of the Ministry of Household and a group of minor officials, making the Ministry of Household empty.

Although Fan Yu had been sitting on the bench in the Ministry of Household for more than a month, he had probably figured out what was going on in the Ministry of Household, but when the dossier was delivered to him, he knew that there was a lot of mess, no wonder the emperor would be furious!

Starting from the Ministry of Household Affairs, Fan Yu would go to Lihedian every day to report on the process of cleaning up this pile of bad debts.

When it comes to people and things, the Son of Heaven is going through the door in person.

In the six divisions and two temples in the DPRK, everyone was connected with the Ministry of Household.

This time, we all know that the emperor is borrowing Fan Yu's hand to clean up the earlier tumor of the household.

This is probably just the beginning.

...

At the end of the first month, when the household affairs were in full swing, Chen Ling left Beijing and went to Huishan to pray.

The Ministry of Rites presented the book again and again, and the officials also received audiences.

Chen Ling set off for Huishan in the last ten days of the first lunar month.

She originally wanted to wait for Chen Xiuyuan to return to Beijing, but Chen Xiuyuan did not leave, so the affairs of the court and Anian were entrusted to the teacher.

The emperor can also handle political affairs when he goes to Huizhou, but he can't go to the court every day, and the book will be delivered to Chen Ling's office one after another, so for the middle school, it's just that some things are not as fast as before...

"It takes more than a month to go to Huizhou in Beijing, then pray for a month in the middle of the month, and then return to Beijing for more than a month, that's at least four months!" Han Guan sighed, "That means before June, the emperor was not in Beijing."

Han Guan and Guo Zixiao are discussing this time.

I haven't seen the emperor before, I always feel that the emperor is far away, that is, it is just a pastime before tea and after dinner.

But the last time I saw the emperor in Fuyang County, I felt that I was familiar with the emperor. I heard the news of the emperor by chance, and I would discuss it a bit.

"When you're free, don't you, come with me on duty when you're free!" Shen Ci glared at him.

Han Guan and Guo Zixiao are both honest.

For Licheng, the most tense months of the first month and February have passed, the severe cold is slowly fading, and the threat to Xirong is getting smaller and smaller.

Spring is recovering, although there are occasional cold springs, but it is also early spring in March.

According to the rules set by Shen Ci earlier, all garrison generals must participate in the rotation of the city and the garrison, at least twice a month, so that the situation in the city and the garrison will be clear, and they will not be in the army all day. I don't even know what's going on around me.

Today is Shen Ci's rotation, and he was half serious and half joking. It just so happened that Han Guan and Guo Zixiao were also on duty together. It is better to hit the sun if you choose a day.

Patrols in the city do not know how to ride horses, and the people in the city are familiar with the three of them, and they greet them all along the way.

Shen Ci was also talking to Han Guan and Guo Zixiao while inspecting.

Although Licheng is an important border town, there are many business travelers, but most of them obey the law, so the city is more peaceful, and there are few disputes and troubles.

Suddenly, there was a commotion in the front, Shen Ci and Han Guan, Guo Zixiao were both surprised, and the garrison turned back, "General, there was a dispute in front of the two sides, and no one was killed, but both saw blood. It's a woman, trapped in a carriage, surrounded by people, not showing her face..."

"Fuck, this is Licheng, there is no king's law, right?" Han Guan was annoyed, and Guo Zixiao held him back, "I haven't asked what's going on, so don't jump to conclusions."

"Go and have a look." Shen Ci said.

These facts are rare and unusual in Licheng City, and Shen Ci was afraid that some drunkard's intention was not drinking.

When Shen Ci and a few people came forward, they did see that both sides were injured, but there were indeed people surrounding the carriage, saying viciously, "If you don't repay the money, you smashed the carriage for me."

The maid on the side of the carriage is also sharp and sharp, "You dare, you spit your blood, we are visiting relatives in Licheng, where do you owe you any money, and you falsely accuse people."

"What are you falsely accusing, hit me up!"

Before he finished speaking, Shen Ci grabbed his wrist, "When did such arrogant characters appear in Licheng?"

"General... General!" The man was frightened.

Han Guan said, "Lei Er! General, Lei Er has been idle on weekdays. Today, I'm afraid that he will get angry and want to falsely accuse others."

Guo Zixiao tugged at his sleeve, "Don't talk nonsense."

Han Guan said, "Definitely."

"I didn't!" Lei Er panicked.

Shen Ci held his hand tighter, "Where is the loan?"

Lei Er hesitated.

Shen Ci continued, "If there is no IOU, it is broad daylight, blackmailing, deliberately hurting people, and getting a lawsuit, this lawsuit, I will watch the trial.

"Don't, don't, General, I was wrong, you see my father is diligent and conscientious for Licheng, get around me!" Lei Er didn't expect to run into Shen Ci today.

"Take it to the government office!" Shen Ci let go, and a garrison would take him away later.

Guo Zixiao also stepped forward and went to the side of the carriage, "You came to Licheng to defect to your relatives, right? Don't be afraid, just go to the yamen to help make a confession, and let the garrison give you a ride later."

In another place, Shen Ci was asking about Lei Er. It was not the first time that he was so arrogant and domineering.

Han Guan said, "Lei Er's father, he's a really nice guy, he's helped a lot, he's old enough, he's used to it all day long, he always told us to help clean up, now it's all right, bump into the general, this time scare and scare He's fine too."

After Han Guan finished speaking, Guo Zixiao stepped forward in panic, "General...General..."

Shen Ci was so angry and funny, "What are you doing in such a panic?"

Guo Zixiao was so nervous that he swallowed, "No, General... People, the lady in the carriage said that it was the General Army that preserved her face and reputation. She has to... she has to show her respect."

Shen Ci: "..."

Han Guan smiled, "Good thing!"

Shen Ci punched the top of his head, "Your brain is caught in the door, right?"

"Tell her..." Before Shen Ci finished speaking, Guo Zixiao refused, "General, you should go on your own. With so many eyes around, I don't have the nerve to say it for you."

Shen Ci glared at him and stepped forward angrily.

Han Guan and Guo Zixiao both laughed, how could this kind of thing happen.

Shen Ci went straight forward and stopped in front of the sedan chair, "This is a matter of duty, the girl doesn't have to worry about it..."

The voice in the carriage said leisurely, "Oh, that's fine."

Shen Ci froze, as if he didn't respond, and his ears seemed to be red, and some couldn't believe it.

"You..." Shen Ci couldn't reach out to lift the curtain of the carriage, but the voice just now was really...

Shen Ci's heart thumped, only to see that the corner of the curtain was slightly lifted, he recognized her hand, and then the face that he was thinking about day and night behind the corner of the curtain, smiled and said, "Then don't get in the way, Get out of the way."

Shen Ci recovered, his face flushed, "I'll marry!"
