After rebirth, I joined forces with my mortal enemy to seek revenge.

The academy official of Yanyuan took a different approach and took Shen Yunzhou's route to send a greeting card. Then came the censor from Chang'an. Pei Jiaoran, who learned the news, laughed it off. Everything is put on Shen Yunzhou, which is not bad news for her. This shows that Emperor Wei was quite satisfied with what she did in Yangzhou and allowed her to continue to do whatever she wanted.

It was just a message sent by He Liang. In addition to the censor, there were also eunuchs from the Ministry of Internal Affairs accompanying him. The news isn't too good.

Shen Yunzhou is her dirty glove when doing things in Yangzhou, and he is also used to store up dissatisfaction and bear the wind and rain. Once any changes occur, Shen Yunzhou will bear the storm. But she didn't intend to sit idly by, after all, Shen Yunzhou was the bridge between her and the Jianghuai family.

Yangzhou, as a transshipment fortress between the Yangtze River and the Huaihe River, has a special geographical location. She hoped that the governor here would be one of her own, so that he would not undermine her decree. Therefore, the reason why the imperial court suddenly sent a censor here and asked his chamberlain to accompany him was probably because the Yanyuan asked Zhang Rang for help.

"Let He Liang continue to stare at the door." Pei Jiaoran said to Fangge beside him: "Go and inform Shen Yunzhou again. The chamberlain is the deputy privy envoy, and his surname is Jiang Mingsheng."

Within the state.

Shen Yunzhou looked at the dusty two people in front of him and hurriedly invited them into the other room. And send a maid to help them bathe and change clothes. An hour later, he finally saw the chamberlain. The censor had already gone to the post house.

"I haven't seen Shen Jishi for many years. You have done well in Yangzhou in the past few years." At this point, Jiang Sheng, who was sitting at the table, took a sip of tea and raised his eyebrows suddenly. Shen Yunzhou, who was standing nearby, was frightened and wanted to take the tea cup, but Jiang Sheng waved his hand and refused. I saw him holding the tea lid with his fingers and pointing at the tea in the cup, "Gu Zhu Zi Bamboo, what a great handiwork."

Shen Yunzhou, who had not yet calmed down, said hurriedly: "This is a gift from a friend."

Hearing this, Jiang Sheng smiled and continued the topic, "Under your control over the years, everything in Yangzhou has been going well. It's just that you are wrong. You should not believe Pei Jiaoran's lies. Who is she? The court is afraid of her absence. A minority. Not only did you take the benefits she gave you, but you also had to bear the risks for her in the future."

"This..." Shen Yunzhou remained silent. He actually knew that Pei Jiaoran would not give him benefits for no reason, but the benefits she gave were real and tempting.

He and Pei Jiaoran had been in frequent contact recently, and he ignored all the letters from Chang'an asking for information. I'm afraid Zhang Rang is anxious. He was afraid that if they continued to ignore him, Pei Jiaoran would uproot everything they had built in Yangzhou. After all, Yangzhou is extraordinary to them. He could also see that Pei Jiaoran had not taken action against Yan Yuan for a long time, probably because he had sensed something.

And she wooed herself because she needed him as a hub to negotiate terms with Jianghuai's powerful men. Now that Zhang Rang was dissatisfied with Pei Jiaoran, he wanted to use himself to take action. But the decrees are being implemented, and the people are also enjoying the benefits.

Once Pei Jiaoran dies and the court orders an end or forcibly intervenes, he, the governor, will bear all the consequences. And the powerful people in those places might also attack him in groups. He seems to have no good options at the moment, and no matter what he chooses, there are risks.

"I have conveyed Zhang Jujuan's meaning to you." Jiang Sheng put down the teacup and looked at Shen Yunzhou, who had no response, with a smile.

Shen Yunzhou frowned, "What does your Majesty mean?"

"Shen Jishi." The smile on Jiang Sheng's face gradually deepened, and he said slowly: "Pei Jiaoran has offended many people by making such a fuss in Yangzhou." As he said that, he pointed to the position below, "You and I are of the same rank, why should we stand here? Here. Besides, this is my home, why should I be so open to outsiders?"

Shen Yunzhou sat down as instructed.

Seeing him sit down, Jiang Sheng continued: "Since she has offended many people, she should bear the wind and rain. Whether she will die on the waves that come at random, none of us know. You just need to understand that except Zhang Jujuan, she will She is dissatisfied, and Xianggong Jia is also dissatisfied with her. At the moment, she is blocked by the obscene priests in Bozhou, and she probably has no time to care too much. You can do whatever you want."

Shen Yunzhou nodded thoughtfully, "Then... what should I do?"

After hearing this, Jiang Sheng frowned, with disgust in his eyes, but he still smiled and said, "You have been governing Yangzhou these years, so you should know the whereabouts of some bandits. Even if it doesn't work, there are other means. In short, she has no other means now, so you are the one to do it. It's a good opportunity. Whether you can join the political hall depends on your ability."

After listening to Jiang Sheng's words, Shen Yunzhou lowered his head. His room seemed to have been completely blocked, and he even sensed the deep veins lurking in the darkness. That was Zhang Rang's fundamental purpose. At present, it seems that they are forcing him to make a choice and killing Pei Jiaoran under the waves of Yangzhou. But afterward, would he really not die in the same wave as her?

After thinking for a while, Shen Yunzhou sighed, "I understand."

After sending Jiang Sheng away, Shen Yunzhou paced in the study. A sleepless night.

Early the next morning, Shen Yunzhou heard that Pei Jiaoran had invited Gu, Lu, Yu and Zhou's family to the post house.

Upon hearing the news, Shen Yunzhou immediately froze on the spot. He never expected that he hadn't taken action yet. He was excluded from the scope of interests by Pei Jiaoran, and even deliberately let him know.

After closing his eyes, Shen Yunzhou saw a sharp sword hanging above his head in the darkness. And Pei Jiaoran was standing not far away, holding a bow and arrow. The arrow pointed directly at the rope tied to the sword, and from time to time the bowstring was fully drawn.

In an instant, Shen Yunzhou's face turned pale. The other party had already learned about his relationship with Zhang Rang, so he would avoid him and especially see other people.

The staff beside him saw that Shen Yunzhou looked wrong and knew that something was wrong, so he hurriedly said: "There is no movement at the post house now, which means you are still safe. After all, Mr. Pei still needs you as a hub to contact other aristocratic families. To Don’t you want people to explore Mr. Pei’s attitude?”

Hearing this, Shen Yunzhou was speechless. He is not only the hub of Pei Jiaoran's connection, but also the target in the eyes of the family.

"No, I have to go to the post house in person." Shen Yunzhou sighed, "She is waiting for my attitude. If I don't go, she can kill me with her sword immediately. I have all the policies she implements. Participating in it has offended others. It’s okay if I die under the wave, it’s even beneficial to her.”

When Pei Jiaoran sent someone to inform him yesterday, he specifically informed him of the other party's identity as a reminder. Let him be alert to the other party, but he does not know the relationship between them. Although this did not make him ashamed, it also made him feel constrained. Once Pei Jiaoran and others re-plan the distribution of interests, he will be attacked by others and become a victim.

"I'm going to the post house. If anyone comes to ask, just say that there is official business in the state and you need to discuss it with Mr. Pei," Shen Yunzhou said.
