The Sickly Beauty Substitute Called It Quits

Shen Yu pretended to be dumbfounded: "What is your majesty talking about? What do I have to say to your majesty? Your majesty wants to listen to me every day like it..."

"Depressed," Shang Junlin interrupted him lightly, "you know what I'm talking about."

"If I said it was just a coincidence, would your Majesty believe it?" Shen Yu lowered his eyebrows, his voice full of uncertainty.

"What do you think?" Shang Junlin asked back.

I don't think so, Shen Yu replied in his heart, if it was him, he would definitely not believe it. How can there be so many coincidences in the world, and there are many coincidences, most of which are man-made.

"Your Majesty," Shen Yu took a deep breath, "I really just went to see Shen Yue today to clear up my doubts. Believe it or not, the other thing is really just a coincidence."

Shen Yu didn't expect that the day he chose happened to coincide with the kidnapping of Young Master He, and he didn't know whether God was helping him or hurting him.

"Leave this matter aside, I ask you, why did you insist that when suspicious persons were discovered, they were prison robbers? How did you know about He Jinyuan?"

Shang Junlin approached Shen Yu, and a sense of oppression from strong thunder followed. His eyes stayed on Shen Yu's face, not letting go of any change in expression.

Shen Yu's face remained unchanged, but his heart was a little flustered. He Jinyuan was the name of Young Master He. He could find a reasonable excuse for anything that happened that day, but this one couldn't.

Shang Junlin reached out and touched Shen Yu's cheek, his hand was as warm as usual, giving Shen Yu a cool feeling for no reason.

"Shen Yu, don't lie to me."

"Your Majesty," Shen Yu stretched out his hand and covered the man's hand, "Your Majesty must believe that I will always be on Your Majesty's side."

"Of course I know this, otherwise you would not be in the Yuzhang Palace but in the dark prison now." Shang Jun's eyes were dark, and his fingertips rubbed his gloomy face.

He is still very confident in the Yinlongwei he cultivated by himself. Except for the few people he deliberately disclosed, it is impossible for others to know that He Jinyuan is in the dark prison, and Shen Yu should not know, unless...

He was involved with those people.

Before Shen Yu entered the palace, he got along with King Yue. Are there other connections between them that he doesn't know about?

Seeing that Shang Junlin's eyes were getting darker and darker, Shen Yu quickly rummaged through his memory, he had to dispel Shang Junlin's suspicions, he came to live a happy life, and it was unreasonable to be reborn and toss himself into it.

"Your Majesty, before I entered the palace, I accidentally heard someone say 'dark prison' and 'replacement'. It was said by a person who was somewhat similar to His Majesty in front of his subordinates. I just listened to it once. After that, when I met a sneaky person in the dark prison that day, I suddenly remembered this incident, and my mouth was faster than my head..."

Shen Yu reflected on it afterwards, and every time the result was that he was too impulsive at that time. At that time, he only thought that he couldn't let the people of King Yue take He Jinyuan away. He didn't think that he, a son of a noble family who was out of the house for many years because of illness, should not be so sensitive. .

"I know what I'm saying is unbelievable, but it's the truth. Everything is a coincidence that can't be more coincidental. Your Majesty chose to ask me alone because no trace of man-made can be found."

"That's right, I didn't find anything," Shang Junlin didn't mind picking it up with Shen Yu and said, "You better pray, never let me find out."

"I haven't done anything, Your Majesty just checked." Feeling the atmosphere eased, Shen Yu rubbed his hand on his face sideways, "Your Majesty, don't scare me in the future, I'm cowardly and can't stand it. "

"I see how bold you are."

The skin under his hands was warmed, and his hand felt better than the best warm jade. Under Shen Yu's bright and innocent eyes, Shang Junlin withdrew his hand and calmly rubbed his index finger with his thumb: "Do you want to think about it again? Ask me for compensation?"

His noble gentleman was very squeamish and did not want to suffer any grievances. Shang Junlin thought that a certain favorite concubine of the late emperor had raised a cat sent by a foreign country. The cat was beautiful and noble, with clear eyes. Depressed.

"Your Majesty really understands me, but I don't want any reward this time. Your Majesty will talk to me about the follow-up and satisfy my curiosity." Shen Yu knew that the more open his attitude towards a person in power like Shang Junlin, the better.

"Aren't you afraid that I will continue to doubt you?" Shang Junlin was surprised.

"Your Majesty means that you don't doubt me now?" Shen Yu asked back.

Shang Junlin raised his gloomy chin and looked at his face: "Sometimes, I really don't know whether to say that you are smart or that you are big-hearted."

"That must be smart, how can a stupid person stand by His Majesty's side." Shen Yu did not hesitate.

"Your Majesty is always reasonable," letting go of his gloomy face, Shang Junlin walked to the side of the collapse and sat down, "Come here, don't you want to hear the follow-up?"

Shen Yu obediently walked over to Shang Junlin and sat down.

"I ordered people to investigate and found only a few marginal figures. The people behind the scenes were too cautious and never showed up from beginning to end. Every order was passed down through several middlemen..."

The matter of Young Master He happened in the dark, and there was no news in the courtroom. Shang Junlin asked people to pay close attention to the movements of several ministers, but still found nothing.

"The people behind the scenes have the intention to push the matter to several ministers who have already been imprisoned. My people have been busy for several days, and without exception, the clues are suddenly cut off in the middle."

"That person is certain that His Majesty will not make a statement, why doesn't His Majesty bring the matter to the bright side?"

The two chatted for a while. Shang Junlin never regarded Shen Yu as a bird in a golden cage. Occasionally Shen Yu asked about the previous dynasty, and he would also chat with him. It was not deep, but it was not difficult to feel it. Out of the gloomy sensitivity to the political affairs.

The Marquis of Zhenbei was really stupid to send such a son into the palace.

In the early dynasty, Shang Junlin changed his normal behavior and announced the news that someone had robbed the prison, but the information of the robbed was blurred. The ministers thought that the robbed was Zhang Yushi and others, and there was an uproar.

It is true that they want to rescue Zhang Yushi and others, but what they want is not the rescue method of robbery. The current Shang Junlin has not been tyrannical to the level of indignation of the ministers. What everyone wants to know is where Zhang Yushi touched the emperor. thunder point.

"This matter is handed over to Mr. Fang. After half a month, I want to get a satisfactory answer."

Mr. Fang respectfully saluted: "The minister follows the order."

Regardless of the surprise of the ministers, Shang Junlin assigned several assistants to Lord Fang.

"If you have nothing to do, then retreat." After the command, Shang Junlin planned to leave.

"Your Majesty," the Minister of Rites stood up, "Your Majesty's birthday is coming, will it be business as usual this year?"

Everyone suddenly realized that after counting the days, it seemed that His Majesty's birthday was approaching. Preparations had already begun at this time in previous years. There were so many things that happened this year that they were almost ignored.

Shang Junlin, who was about to nod his head, thought of something, and stopped his movements: "This matter can be discussed with Shen Guijun."

The ministers were stunned for a while, and suddenly realized that their Majesty was no longer alone.

Shen Yu also heard the palace servants talk about this.

"Your Majesty's birthday?" Shen Yu asked while trimming the plum blossoms in the vase.

"Yes, in half a month it will be His Majesty's birthday. Every year at this time of the year, there will be a birthday banquet in the palace. This year, when your nobleman enters the palace, it will definitely be more lively than in previous years."

For the master of Shen Yu, the palace people are very fond of him, especially after the last incident, the palace people's favor for him has skyrocketed.

"Your Majesty, Master Lu, Minister of Rites, asks to see you." Someone from the palace came in to report.

"Why did the Minister of Rites come to me?" Although he was puzzled, Shen Yu asked the palace servants to invite people in.

The Minister of Rites was also very puzzled, although Shen Yu was also a man, but Shen Yu belonged to the emperor after all. It seemed that it was not good for him to meet with a foreigner. people.

No, the Minister of Rites had to come.

"My minister sees Your Majesty."

"Sir, you don't need to be more polite, come here and watch the seat." This is not the first time Shen Yu has seen the Minister of Rites, the last time he met was when he entered the palace.

Master Lu explained his intentions straight to the point. After listening to their articles of association, Shen Yu felt that there was no major problem, so he picked out some small details and changed them.

After the process was settled, Mr. Lu said his farewell, and sat in the same place gloomily, wondering, this year should not be the day when the vassal king returns to Beijing.

Shen Yu decided to wait for Shang Junlin to come and ask him.

An unremarkable mansion somewhere in the capital.

When King Yue heard the news that the emperor was going to investigate strictly, he only felt dark in front of him. He couldn't understand why everything was different from what he imagined when he came to the capital this time.

The emperor's behavior has changed drastically, everything he wants to do is failing, and every result makes him want to vomit blood.

Taking a deep breath, he asked, "Where are the people we sent out, or there is no news at all?"

In order to save Young Master He, the King of Yue borrowed a group of people at a great cost. Now that they have not brought them out, let's not say that these people are all gone!

The subordinate lowered his head and said with difficulty: "...Yes."

"This king shouldn't count on you, a bunch of trash!" King Yue took a few steps, "How is the aftermath done, won't you find out here?"

"Don't worry, my lord, I can't find it." He was certain of this. Strictly speaking, the prison robbery never passed their hands. Whether it was the order or the manpower used, it had nothing to do with King Yue.

"Go on, all plans are suspended during this time." King Yue waved his hand weakly. He really didn't ask for anything when he came to the capital this time, right...

It's not without gain. Thinking of the concubine who always has fantastic ideas in Zhenbei Hou's mansion, King Yue narrowed his eyes.

The news that King Yue and Shen Qingran hooked up again reached Shen Yu's ears through Mu Xi's mouth.

"In the past, this servant thought that he was really devoted to Young Master, but he was really blind," Mu Xi pouted, "Fortunately, Young Master has a clear mind and was not deceived by that person."

"Your son is fine, he is the only one who can lie to others, who will get others to lie to him." Shang Junlin's low voice came from outside the door.

Mu Xi's face changed slightly, she sent Gong Cai to tell Shen Yu this, if His Majesty listened to what she just said...
