Shen Yu pretended to be stupid: "What is your Majesty talking about? What do I want to say to Your Majesty? Your Majesty wants to hear me say it every day. I like it..."
"Depressed," Shang Junlin interrupted him lightly, "You know what I'm talking about."
"If I say that it's really just a coincidence, will His Majesty believe it?" His brows were lowered gloomy, and his voice was full of uncertainty.
"What do you think?" Shang Junlin asked back.
I don't think so, and I replied gloomily in my heart, if it was him, he would definitely not believe it, how could there be so many coincidences in the world, there are too many coincidences, most of them 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 would coincide with the kidnapping of Mr. He, and he didn't know whether the heaven was helping him or hurting him.
"Leaving aside this matter for the time being, let me ask you, why did you insist that they were robbing the prison when you found suspicious people? How did you know about He Jinyuan?"
Shang Junlin approached Shen Yu, and a strong sense of oppression followed. His eyes stayed on Shen Yu's face, not letting go of any change in expression.
The gloomy face remained unchanged, but there was a little panic in his heart. He Jinyuan was the name of Young Master He, and 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.
"Depressed, don't lie to me."
"Your Majesty," Shen Yu stretched out his hand to cover the man's, "Your Majesty must believe that I will always be on His Majesty's side."
"Of course I know this, otherwise you would be in a prison instead of Yuzhang Palace." Shang Junlin's eyes were dark, and his fingertips rubbed his gloomy face time after time.
He is still very confident in the Yinlongwei he has cultivated by himself. Except for the few people he deliberately revealed, 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.
Shen Yu got along with King Yue before entering the palace, is there any other connection between them that he doesn't know
Seeing that Shang Junlin's eyes were getting darker and darker, and gloomy, he searched quickly in his memory. He had to dispel Shang Junlin's suspicion.
"Your Majesty, before I entered the palace, I overheard someone say the words 'dark prison' and 'replacement'. It was said by a person 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 prison that day, I suddenly remembered this incident, and my mouth was faster than my head... "
Sullen thought about it afterwards, and every time it turned out that he was too impulsive at that time. At that time, he only thought that he could not be taken away by the king of Yue. He never thought that he, a son of a family who has been out of the house all the year round due to illness, should not be so sensitive. .
"I know what I said is unbelievable, but it is the truth. Everything is a coincidence that cannot 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 breaking away from Shen Yu and said, "You'd better pray and never let me find anything."
"I haven't done anything, Your Majesty will check it casually." Feeling the atmosphere eased, he rubbed his hand on his face gloomily, "Your Majesty, don't scare me from now on, I'm timid and can't stand being scared. "
"I see you are very courageous."
The skin under his hand was warmed, and it felt better than the best warm jade. Under Shen Yu's bright and innocent eyes, Shang Junlin withdrew his hand and rubbed his index finger with his thumb calmly: "Do you want to do it again next time?" Ask me for compensation?"
His noble gentleman is very squeamish, unwilling to accept any grievances. Shang Junlin thought of a certain concubine of the former emperor who once raised a cat sent by a foreign country. The cat was beautiful and noble, with clear eyes, just like Like gloomy.
"Your Majesty really understands me, but this time I don't want any rewards. Your Majesty will tell me about the follow-up and satisfy my curiosity." Shen Yu knew that the more open-minded the attitude towards someone in power like Shang Junlin, the better.
"Aren't you afraid that I will continue to doubt you?" Shang Junlin was surprised.
"Does Your Majesty mean that you no longer doubt me?" Shen Yu asked back.
Shang Junlin raised his gloomy chin and looked at his face: "Sometimes, I really don't know whether to say you are smart or you are big-hearted."
"That must be smart, how can a stupid person deserve to stand beside His Majesty." Su Yu did not hesitate.
"Your Majesty is always right," Shang Junlin let go of his gloomy face, walked to the edge and sat down, "Come here, don't you want to listen to the follow-up?"
Shen Yu obediently walked to Shang Junlin and sat down.
"I ordered people to search around, and only found a few marginal figures. The people behind the scenes were too cautious and never showed up. Every order was passed down through several middlemen..."
The matter of Mr. He happened in the dark, and no news was heard in the court. Shang Junlin asked people to pay close attention to the movements of several ministers, but still found nothing.
"The people behind the scenes deliberately pushed the matter to several ministers who have already been imprisoned. My people have been busy for several days, and the clues were all cut off in the middle without exception."
"The man is sure that His Majesty will not say anything, why don't His Majesty bring the matter to the surface?"
The two chatted for a while, and Shang Junlin never regarded Shen Yu as a bird locked in a golden cage. Occasionally, Shen Yu asked about the previous affairs, and he would chat with him, not deep, but not difficult to feel Show melancholy sensitivity to government affairs.
Zhenbei Hou sent such a son to the palace, he was really stupid.
In the early court, Shang Junlin changed his normal routine and announced the news that someone had robbed the prison, but the information of the robbed person was blurred. The ministers thought that the robbed person was Zhang Yushi and others, and the audience was in an uproar.
It is true that they want to rescue Zhang Yushi and others, but what they want is not the rescue method of robbing the prison. Now Shang Junlin is not so violent that the officials are furious. What everyone wants to know is where Zhang Yushi touched the emperor thunder point.
"Leave this matter to Mr. Fang. After half a month, I will get a satisfactory answer."
Lord Fang saluted respectfully: "I obey the order."
Regardless of the surprise of the officials, Shang Junlin assigned several assistants to Mr. Fang.
"Let's retreat if there is nothing to do." After giving the order, Shang Junlin planned to leave.
"Your Majesty," the Minister of Rites stood up, "His Majesty's birthday is coming, will things continue as usual this year?"
Everyone was stunned. Counting the days, it seemed that His Majesty's birthday was approaching. In previous years, preparations had already begun at this time. 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 again, and suddenly realized that their majesty is no longer alone.
Shen Yu also heard the palace people talk about this matter.
"His Majesty's birthday?" Shen Yu asked while trimming the plum blossoms in the vase.
"Yes, it will be His Majesty's birthday in half a month. Every year at this time, the palace will hold a birthday banquet. This year when your honor enters the palace, it will definitely be more lively than in previous years."
The palace people like Shen Yu very much, especially after what happened last time, the palace people's favor for him has skyrocketed.
"Your Majesty, Master Lu, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, seeks to see you." A palace official came in to report.
"Why did Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites come to see me?" Although he was puzzled, he asked the palace servants to invite him in even though he was puzzled.
Minister of the Ministry of Rites himself was also very puzzled. Although Shen Yu was also a man, Shen Yu belonged to the emperor after all. It seemed that it was not good for him to meet with a foreigner. He also expressed his concerns to His Majesty after he came down to court, and His Majesty still asked him to come directly to him. people.
Helpless, the Minister of Rites had no choice but to come.
"The minister sees your lord."
"Your Excellency, you don't need to be too polite, come and sit." It's not the first time for Shen Yu to meet the Minister of Rites, the last time we met was when he entered the palace.
Master Lu explained his intentions straight to the point. He listened to their charter and felt that there was no big problem, so he picked out some small details and changed them.
After setting the procedure, Lord Lu said goodbye, sitting in the same place depressed, a little puzzled, this year shouldn't be the day when the feudal lord returns to the capital, why there is such a thing as the feudal lord's return to the capital in the process.
Shen Yu decided to wait for Shang Junlin to come over and ask him.
An inconspicuous mansion somewhere in the capital.
When the king of Yue heard the news that the emperor planned to conduct a strict investigation, his vision went dark. He couldn't figure out why everything was different from what he had imagined when he came to the capital this time.
The emperor's behavior changed drastically, everything he wanted to do failed, and every result made him want to vomit blood.
Taking a deep breath, he asked, "Where are the people we sent out, or is there no news at all?"
In order to save Young Master He, the King of Yue borrowed a group of people at a high price, but now that they haven't been brought out, these people are gone!
The subordinate lowered his head and said with difficulty: "... yes."
"This king shouldn't have counted on you, a bunch of trash!" Yue Wang took a few steps, "How did you do the aftermath, you won't find out here?"
"Don't worry, my lord, I won't be able to find out." He was sure of this point. Strictly speaking, the prison robbery had never been handled by them at all. Whether it was the order or the manpower used, it had nothing to do with Yue Wang.
"Go on, all plans are suspended during this time." King Yue waved his hand weakly. He really didn't get any good things in the capital this time, no...
It's not like there's nothing to gain, King Yue squinted his eyes when he thought of the concubine in Zhenbei Hou's mansion who always had fantastic ideas.
The news that King Yue and Shen Qingran hooked up again reached Shen Yu's ears through Mu Xi's mouth.
"In the past, the servant thought that he was really devoted to the young master, but he was really blind," Mu Xi pouted, "Fortunately, the young master has a clear mind and was not deceived by that man."
"Your son is smart. He is the only one who can deceive others. Who will be able to deceive him?" Shang Junlin's deep voice came from outside the door.
Mu Xi's face changed slightly, she sent the palace to tell Shen Yu these things, if His Majesty listened to what she just said...
