Reborn to be a mistress, she went crazy killing the legitimate daughter

Xu pushed Bo Jinxiu down, snatched the bowl and handed it to Qiu Wen: "Guard the door!"

Bo Jinxiu touched his lips with his sleeve and looked at Xu and said, "What are you doing? Are you going to interrogate me?"

Xu immediately became suspicious when she heard this: "Why, you are confessing yourself!"

Bo Jinxiu immediately swore, "I'm already so busy, how can I have the energy to think about other things? Don't worry!"

Shen Yiran held the two of them down and brought the conversation back to the main topic.

As soon as Bo Jinxiu saw the note, he came to his senses, stood up, walked around, and turned back: "My sister-in-law is here, it must be true, right?"

Shen Yiran nodded.

Bo Jinxiu walked around again and said, "In that case, there was the Yueshi Kingdom a few days ago, and now there is the Xiongnu. It's really unstable!"

Shen Yiran listened and nodded, "That's right, big brother, you also know that Jinnian was in the border army before, and this news was also sent out in encrypted form from the border army."

"encryption!"

"Yes."

Bo Jinxiu walked back and forth several times and seemed to be getting anxious.

Xu shouted, "Please sit down. People who leave are upset!"

"How would you know? Sending it in encrypted form means there are spies among the border troops. Sister-in-law, you'd better not send the letter back, lest you be discovered."

When Shen Yiran heard this, he immediately stood up and walked out.

Fortunately, the letter was finally recovered at dawn. After Shen Yiran took out the last letter, he added a few suggestive words to the previous letter, resealed it and sent it out.

Bo Jinxiu got up early to listen to the news. Seeing Shen Yiran sending out another letter, he immediately stopped him and said, "Didn't you say you wouldn't send it?"

Shen Yiran smiled and said, "If we don't send a letter back to them, won't people be suspicious? Don't worry, I wrote it very carefully, and no one will be able to see any clues."

Then he burned the encrypted letter.

"Well, I'll go to the government office to investigate, and you go find Prince Xing."

Shen Yiran nodded, changed his clothes and went to Prince Xing's Mansion.

Cao Yuqin's belly was so big that she couldn't walk anymore. She was very happy to see Shen Yiran coming.

"You knew to come visit me too?"

Shen Yiran smiled and helped her walk slowly around before sending her back: "Where's the prince?"

"He went to the Honglu Temple today."

"Really? Do you know when you'll be back?"

Cao Yuqin immediately became alert when she heard this: "He must be coming back soon, right? He just didn't show up, and now he's taking up a position for nothing, so he'll naturally go back a few times."

Then he pulled Shen Yiran to sit down: "What happened?"

Shen Yiran nodded, but refused to talk to Cao Yuqin.

Cao Yuqin had to know, so she immediately urged and coaxed him to know.

Shen Yiran had no choice but to say, "I don't need to say it twice. Wait for the prince to come back and listen to it together."

When Prince Xing returned to the palace and heard that Shen Yiran had arrived, he went to the inner room and saw the two of them sitting there.

Cao Yuqin immediately urged, "Come over and sit down, Sister Shen has something important to say!"

Prince Xing laughed and sat down seriously: "I'm all ears!"

Shen Yiran didn't show any joy as he handed over the contents of the superstitious translation.

Prince Xing took it, and Cao Yuqin immediately leaned over to take a look. After reading it, both of them were shocked and shouted, "Really?"

Shen Yiran burned the note and nodded heavily.

Prince Xing left, calmed himself down, and went over to close the door.

"Then what can I do?"

Shen Yiran immediately asked, "Is there any movement in the Honglu Temple? Or anything unusual? What about the situation in the Xiongnu?"

When King Xing heard this, he first talked about the Xiongnu: "Now a Xiongnu tribe has defeated other tribes and established a dynasty, calling himself the Heavenly Khan."

"The Khan of Heaven has just sent an envoy to the capital. The letter of credence has been delivered. Your Majesty has agreed, and the envoy will set off."

"Has your majesty seen it?"

Prince Xing nodded and said, "I am going there today for this matter. I heard that the Khan's country is well-equipped and eager to make a move on the border. Your Majesty was very happy to see this and thought it was a friendly gesture, so he agreed."

After hearing this, Shen Yiran nodded and began to think silently.

Cao Yuqin heard this and saw that the two were silent, so she immediately interrupted and said, "The envoys are here now. Is it inappropriate to assassinate His Majesty at this time?"

King Xing said: "Regardless of whether the assassination can be successful, how big of an impact will it have if the Fengshan ceremony on Mount Tai is not completed? If someone takes advantage of this opportunity, the people will be in turmoil and the country will be unstable!"

When Shen Yiran heard this, he immediately thought of something and looked up at Prince Xing: "I wonder if Prince Xing and the Crown Prince are familiar with each other?"

Prince Xing shook his head in alarm, "I'm not familiar with him, but I heard that the prince is now eighteen years old and has learned about court affairs from His Majesty, and has gained a reputation as a wise man."

"You wouldn't be?"

Shen Yiran shook his head slightly and remained silent.

"Please pay more attention to the Honglu Temple, Prince Xing, and keep an eye on the movements of the foreigners, but don't alert them."

Prince Xing agreed and sent Shen Yiran out. He had more questions to ask, but Shen Yiran had already left.

After returning to the mansion, Shen Yiran immediately found Ji Sicheng's room and asked the nanny at the door: "Are you asleep?"

Ji Sicheng's voice came from the room immediately: "Mother, I'm reading a book on the bed with my clothes on."

After hearing this, Shen Yiran pushed the door and walked in.

Sure enough, when she saw Ji Sicheng sitting on the bed, she hurriedly pressed him not to get up and sat him on the chair that the maid brought to the side of the bed.

"You all stand down."

When the nanny heard this, she closed the door and walked away with the maids.

Shen Yiran asked softly, "I asked you to follow the young master to the palace to meet the princes. Have you seen them?"

Ji Sicheng nodded and replied seriously: "Your Majesty has many princes, and we often play together, but the crown prince is much older and now manages state affairs, so we don't have much contact."

"What do you think of the prince?"

Ji Sicheng listened, thought for a moment and said, "We have only met three times. The prince speaks humbly and acts generously. The brothers also respect him very much. I don't think there is anything wrong with him."

After hearing this, Shen Yiran pursed her lips and smiled, "It's okay, mother is just asking."

Ji Sicheng pulled Shen Yiran and said, "I am now an official in the court. If you have any troubles, you can tell me. I also want to do my part!"

Shen Yiran thought that Ji Sicheng's mother was also a member of the border army and must also want to fight against the Huns, so he told him the story.

"Mother listened to the prince's words and was worried that someone in the court would take advantage of the opportunity to profit, and the one who would benefit the most would be the crown prince."

Shen Yiran understood everything when he saw Ji Sicheng was so calm. He also sorted out the regulations clearly and it seemed as if he saw the figure of Bo Jinnian.

"Yes, but from what you said, I think you are overthinking it."

Ji Sicheng didn't think so: "I think no matter how good the prince is, he is not perfect. I will investigate, mother, don't worry."

As he spoke, he thought of Ji Siyue again. Ji Sicheng said, "Yue'er is guarding in the palace. Maybe she can hear some things. I will tell her these things."
