The Rebirth of the Deposed Empress

Chapter 65 Prime Minister Shen's People

At this moment, Hua Wujing also noticed something strange, and he spoke.

"You are asking for death by returning to the capital, right? If you die here at Beimo Pass, I can still go back to the capital and ask the emperor to grant you a loyal and courageous heart."

"how do you feel?"

Looking at the two 'killer gods' in front of him, Shen Yi's lips trembled slightly.

I was afraid that they would really kill me with a knife if they had a disagreement with me.

Shen Yi hurriedly shouted out his identity.

"I am Prime Minister Shen's man! How dare you touch me!"

As soon as he said this, he regretted it.

Hua Rongyu and Hua Wujing looked at each other.

There were five words written in both of their eyes.

Sure enough there is a problem.

Prime Minister Shen is the father of Queen Shen, and also the grandfather of Ye Chuji.

If Shen Yi was the person sent by Prime Minister Shen, then Ye Chuji must be involved in the robbery of food and military pay by the bandits.

There must be something hidden!

Ye Buhuo finally heard the answer to his guess from Shen Yi's mouth, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"Instead of waiting for the people in the capital to rescue you, you should think about how to get the food back."

"This is Beimo Pass, not the capital."

"If you can't find the food, I will take your life!"

Before I came here, the Prime Minister clearly said that as long as I said I wanted to return to the capital to apologize to the emperor, Ye Buhuo would not dare to do anything to me.

When I return to the capital, the prime minister will do his best to protect me.

Why is it that Ye Buhuo has no intention of letting me go now?

Do you really want to kill me here in Beimo Pass so that I can be buried with the Xuantie Army and the Hua Family Army?

Shen Yi was frightened by Ye Buhuo's words and broke out in a cold sweat, losing all his strength.

With his eyes rolled up, Shen Yi fainted.

The two guards carried Shen Yi up and brought him back to the military camp.

In the coach's tent.

Shen Yi was thrown to the ground by the soldier with a bang.

When Shen Yi was thrown to the ground, his eyelids trembled uncontrollably and he let out a suppressed groan.

He then recovered and appeared unconscious.

But his little movements were all seen by everyone in the tent.

Hua Rongyu raised his hand to call two soldiers and ordered:

"Bring two buckets of cold water and help Lord Shen wash."

After a while, two buckets of cold water were poured on Shen Yi.

Although it is just cold water, the cold water in the northern winter is no different from ice and snow.

The freezing water soaked Shen Yi's thick coat, and the winter coat, which was soaked with icy water, stuck to Shen Yi without any gaps.

In a moment, Shen Yi's lips turned purple, and his teeth couldn't help but knock against each other slightly.

Shen Yi was so cold that his whole body couldn't help but tremble slightly.

But he clenched his back teeth and closed his eyes tightly, refusing to open them.

Still pretending?

Hua Rongyu snorted coldly.

"Your Majesty, it seems that Lord Shen is no longer able to wake up. Why not just send him back to the capital?"

Send me back to the capital?

Then am I saved?

Shen Yi didn't expect that he could actually escape danger by pretending to be unconscious. He couldn't help feeling a little proud.

But this pride did not last long, and he heard Hua Rongyu continue speaking.

"If you soak him in this cold water, the water will freeze into ice before he can get out of Beimo Pass."

"If we are fast, maybe the ice won't melt by the time we reach the capital. If Shen Yi's body doesn't decay by then, it will be an explanation to Prime Minister Shen."

Upon hearing this, Ye Buhuo responded, seeming to be very satisfied with this method.

"Just do as General Hua says."

After getting Ye Buhuo's approval, Hua Rongyu immediately asked someone to bring a wooden box.

They poured ice water into it, and then two soldiers carried Shen Yi and put him in.

As soon as his feet touched the cold water, Shen Yi finally woke up.

"What are you going to do to me? I'm going back to the capital to file a complaint to the emperor!"

Seeing that Shen Yi finally stopped pretending to be unconscious, Hua Rongyu raised her hand and waved away the soldiers.

Without the soldiers' restraint, Shen Yi hurriedly climbed out of the wooden box.

He inadvertently looked back at the wooden box, and unexpectedly saw a white flower hanging on the box.

Shen Yi was so frightened that his legs went limp and he collapsed to the ground, kicking his legs wildly as he retreated backwards.

Wait until there is no room for retreat.

Shen Yi turned around, looked at the people in the tent, stared and said:

"How dare you put me in a coffin! Prime Minister Shen will not let you go!"

Anyway, he had just accidentally revealed that he was Prime Minister Shen's man.

Now Shen Yi is isolated and helpless in Beimo Pass. He doesn't care about Prime Minister Shen's advice, that he must not let the people in Beimo Pass know his relationship with him.

To stay alive.

Shen Yi always mentioned Prime Minister Shen, and he wished he could hang the three words "Prime Minister Shen" on his chest as his life-saving talisman.

Unexpectedly, these three words completely ignited the anger of the people in the tent.

Ye Chuji attacked Hua Wuke in the capital, which was the thing that Ye Buhuo and Hua Rongyu, father and son, could not tolerate the most.

Now Ye Chuji has even extended his hand to the rations of the soldiers who are defending their country.

Ye Buhuo looked at Shen Yi and spoke.

"Tomorrow, you will lead the way to Fengbu Ridge."

“If the food and grass really disappeared, let alone Shen Wenchang, even if Ye Chuji was standing here, I would kill you to commemorate Beimoguan!”

Shen Yi didn't expect that Ye Buhuo didn't take Shen Wenchang seriously, and even Ye Chuji was not taken seriously at all.

Shen Yi didn't dare to argue any more and was taken away behind the soldiers.

That night, Hua Rongyu told Hua Zhukong about this matter.

"Father, I will take people to the Wind Catching Ridge tomorrow."

When Hua Zhukong heard this, he shook his head with a serious expression.

"That's not right. You have been staying in Beimo Pass for many years. The people inside the pass are very familiar with you, General Hua."

"If you suddenly leave Beimo Pass and go to Fengbu Ridge, it will be too conspicuous and your whereabouts will be easily discovered."

"I guess the bandit got wind of it before you even left Beimo Pass and ran away."

Hua Rongyu also felt that what Hua Zhukong said made sense.

But if I can't step in to deal with such a serious matter as the lost military rations, who can go to Fengbuling?

"I will go to Fengchao Ridge."

Ye Buhuo spoke out.

Hua Zhukong asked:

"How did the prince determine that there was something wrong with Shen Yi?"

"Shen Yi came from the capital to deliver food and fodder. The journey was so long, and he encountered bandits along the way."

"But apart from his somewhat ragged clothes, he didn't look at all shabby. He even looked ruddy, as if he had a good time on the journey."

"And I also saw Shen Yi's intact wrists under his messy sleeves. If he had really been tied up, there shouldn't be any marks at all."

That's why Ye Buhuo deduced that not only was Shen Yi not abused by the bandits, but he was also treated as a guest of honor.

After receiving a good reception from Fengbuling, Shen Yi left Fengbuling and arrived at Beimoguan Pass with the final deadline.

Hua Zhukong nodded in understanding.

Upon hearing that Ye Buhuo was going to Bufeng Ridge in person, Hua Rongyu was a little hesitant.

"Your Highness still has to stay at Beimo Pass, why not let Jing'er go?"
