Knowing that the emperor sent someone to Hanzhou, the King of Yue and his party changed their original plan. They originally planned to go directly to the Cheng family. With the status of the Cheng family in Hanzhou, no place is safer than the Cheng family, but what happened later, The Cheng family is no longer so safe.

At present, the court sent people to investigate, mainly what Xu Wanjun did. The Cheng family had been entrenched in Hanzhou for many years, and their work was not obvious. If it wasn't for Xu Wanjun, they would not have been exposed so quickly.

Don't the people behind it want to choose other, safer methods? It's just that the time is too tight, and the court is chasing after them, and they have no choice.

Hidden Dragon Guard acted secretly, and it was the Imperial Imperial Army who participated in the arrest on the open side.

Don't think that the forbidden army is the son of the officials who went in to gild it. The former Dahuan forbidden army can say that, but the forbidden army in Shang Junlin's hands is not. This is the army that followed him first, and it was the one who really fought on the battlefield. Those who want to join the Imperial Army need to go through a lot of assessments, and only those who are good enough will be selected.

Such a banned army is not a piece of shit, and it is not so easy to escape their pursuit.

If it wasn't for an assassination attempt to distract them, the most likely possibility was that they wouldn't even be able to get out of the imperial city.

So even though they knew it was not safe to come to Hanzhou, they could only give it a try.

When he knew that Xu Wanjun had offended the emperor in the autumn hunting and attracted the court people to Hanzhou, the person behind him broke the glass. The foolproof arrangement made a huge mistake because of a fool. get killed.

The Cheng family is no longer safe, so they can only find other places. Fortunately, the Cheng family has a great business and there are many Zhuangzi. It is not difficult to pick out one of them that is not known to outsiders. In the end, they chose a place that is also located in Hanzhou, but in a remote location. 's Zhuangzi.

Cheng family master knew that there would be guests arriving recently. After getting the news, he did not go to Bie Zhuang for the first time, but summoned those who have the right to speak in the family to come to discuss.

"Now that people have arrived, what should we do?"

The Cheng family has been rooted in Hanzhou for many years, and giving up is not so easy.

Except for a few people who talked about it, the rest of the Cheng family didn't even know about it.

"Our Cheng family, are we going to fall apart for an unidentified person?"

"You should ask Xu Wanjun about this. If she hadn't caused trouble, would we need to put ourselves in?"

Once the favor touches the interests, it ceases to exist in an instant.

"She is the daughter of the master's sister. She has been spoiled since she was a child. In her own territory, her temperament is harmless, but when she arrives in the capital, she will be like this, and sooner or later, she will harm others and herself. I can't get along with a junior..."

"Okay, don't talk about it." Seeing the ugly face of the owner, someone discouraged him.

"It's already happened, what's the use of talking about it? When you have time to talk about this, it's better to think about what we should do next."

"Although it hasn't spread to us yet, but if those adults continue to investigate, sooner or later they will find us, and we have no choice, don't we?"

There was silence in the study.

"What did the lord say?" After a while, someone spoke.

"He said that he can't meet the imperial court for the time being, let's meet with that guest first and go with them." Master Cheng rubbed his eyebrows and looked tired.

"Have so many people in the Cheng family given up so many things?"

"If the action is too big, the court will definitely notice..."

The meaning of Cheng Family Master's words is already obvious.

After midnight, the Cheng family owner changed his clothes, quietly left the Cheng family house, and went to the other village.

He knows more information than the other Cheng family members, and he knows who the guests are. Now that such a big incident has happened to the Cheng family, it is impossible to save it no matter what. Since this is the case, it is better to change course and vote for his master.

King of Yue.

That was the first emperor's favorite candidate for a new monarch. If they took refuge in the King of Yue, and when things were done, they would have the power of the dragon. What's the point of losing this now?

He needs to meet someone first.

In Bie Zhuang, finally got to a fairly safe place. King Yue finally got a good night's sleep, but soon after he fell asleep, he was called up and said that someone was coming to see him.

No matter how dissatisfied he is in his heart, he doesn't dare to show anything on his face. The escape career during this period has changed his temperament again. If before, he could still be praised as a handsome young man, but now the wickedness between his eyebrows makes him look It doesn't fit this description at all.

Putting on his clothes and getting out of bed, the King of Yue saw the Cheng family.

"See wang ye, wang ye has suffered during this time." To treat King Yue, the Cheng family should be a little more respectful.

King Yue, who had not been treated like this for a long time, softened a lot, and stood up with his help: "No need to be polite, this time, I need to rely on the family master Cheng a lot."

One is complimented, the other is used, and the atmosphere between the two is very good.

Before dawn, the Cheng family head quietly returned to the Cheng family's main house.

He didn't know that his every move was being watched by Yin Longwei.

The King of Yue and his party temporarily settled in Hanzhou. Where to go next and how to go, they need to wait for the instructions of the people behind them.

The news of Yinlongwei reached the imperial city. After reading it, Shang Junlin put the secret letter aside and said to Shen Yu, "Shang Junyue has arrived in Hanzhou."

"Has Yinlongwei found their traces?" Shen Yu put the book in his hand on the shelf, and was about to change one when he heard the words and turned around.

Shang Junlin: "They colluded with the Cheng family."

Shen Yu: "Cheng's family, is it Master Xu's Yue family?"

Shang Junlin: "Yes."

Shen Yu: "Is it really related to them? Was Mrs. Xu the insider of that assassination?"

Shang Junlin: "She doesn't know, she doesn't even know that people around her will pass news to the assassin. When the people in the Ministry of Punishment told her the news, she still felt that she was slandering her."

Shen Yu: "When does Your Majesty plan to start?"

Shang Junlin: "Wait a minute, they must have someone to answer, I want to know where those people still have their bases."

Shen Yu: "The capital can have the people they set up, and there must be a lot in other places."

The weather is getting colder and colder, a winter rain falls, the temperature is getting lower and lower, the ground dragon has been burned in the palace, if it is not necessary, Shen Yu will not run out.

Nothing major happened in Beijing, and the attention of the courtiers was still on Subei's side, and the war with Beimo was what they were most concerned about at the moment.

The second is the assassination case and the Yue Wang prison escape case.

With the in-depth investigation of Lord Fang, the courtiers also knew that the two things were done by the same force.

Early on, Fang Jun stepped forward: "I think that the source of the forces behind King Yue needs to be thoroughly investigated. This time, if they can assassinate His Majesty in order to rescue King Yue, what can they do next time? Should they surround King Yue? Enthroned as emperor?!"

The voice fell, and the quiet needle drop in the hall could be heard.

Fang Jun's remarks can be said to be quite rebellious, but what he said is exactly what the ministers are worried about. Dare to rob prison, dare to assassinate, do you want to change the dynasty next?

Nobody wants to see this result.

If the king of Yue succeeded in his rebellion, they would become old ministers of the previous dynasty. How many old ministers have been successful in the past? They couldn't let that happen, even for themselves.

After a long time, a minister stood up: "I think that what Mr. Fang said is very true, this matter must be thoroughly investigated!"

Next, people continued to stand up and agree with Fang Jun's approach.

The contest with the King of Yue and the forces behind him was put on the bright side at this moment.

"Since all of you feel that a thorough investigation should be carried out, Fang Jun, you are responsible for this matter. From this moment on, the title of King Yue has been temporarily withdrawn. If it is found that King Yue is innocent, I will pay compensation. Brotherhood." Shang Junlin's words made the final conclusion on this matter.

In addition to Fang Jun, Shang Junlin also pointed out that several officials from the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple cooperated in handling the case, and sent officials and troops to the fief of the King of Yue. If the title was taken away, the fief should naturally be returned to the court.

Prison escape, assassination, raising private soldiers... King Yue's crimes were announced one after another, which confirmed his double-hearted guess.

Overnight, Shang Junyue became a rebel, and everyone shouted and beat him.

"I didn't expect that King Yue was such a person behind his back. It's a shame that I thought he was a gentle prince at the beginning. I was really blind."

"What is King Yue, it's not anymore, but the character of this person is really bad. It is said that he has provoked the daughters of several ministers at the same time in the past, and he refused to admit it after being discovered."

"It happened in Yingxing Building. Many people have seen it. For the sake of the reputation of those girls, I didn't say it. Sure enough, no matter how disguised it is, it will be exposed one day."

"Do you remember the remarks that smeared His Majesty before? It was also spread by the King of Yue."

"So, he's been plotting bad things a long time ago?"

"I don't even care what kind of virtue I have. How can I compare my face to your Majesty's face? With such a set of people behind the scenes, being a prince is just a good reincarnation."

For a time, the reputation of the King of Yue among the people was extremely bad. On the contrary, the reputation of Shang Junlin was better. The people were convinced that the bad things in the past were deliberately fabricated by the King of Yue in order to discredit the emperor.

There are also many scholars who wrote articles to denounce their credulous belief in rumors at first, guaranteeing that they will have more judgment in the future and will no longer follow what others say.

There is a new trend among scholars, and countless articles praising today's sages appear, which no one expected.

After Shen Yu heard about it, he joked: "How is your majesty feeling now?"

He put his hands under his chin and looked up at Shang Junlin with a smile in his eyes.

In addition to the People's Daily, the imperial court ran another newspaper, which was run in cooperation with the bookstore under the name of Shen Yu, to include some interesting folk stories, accept contributions from Dahuan's people, and also introduce some good-quality products, which sold very well. Cheap and popular among the common people.

During this period of time, the articles that appeared most in the newspapers either denounced Shang Junyue or praised Shang Junlin in various ways. The contrast was very stark.

Shang Junlin was criticizing the book, when he heard the words, he raised his other hand and squeezed the gloomy face: "Joke me?"

Shen Yu shook his head, his eyes shone with shreds of light: "How can there be? I'm just happy for Your Majesty."

Shang Junlin let go of his hand, rubbed his cheek for a while, then pinched his chin, leaned over, and kissed his lips.

"These are all because of Ayu..."

The murmur disappeared from his lips.

The kiss gradually deepened.
