Chapter 116. The Stormy Night of Lin'an

The mansion of the Great General of the Zhen Kingdom, the candles were dimly lit.

Having drank half a cup of tea, it was already cooling down, so Concubine Shen Gui sat opposite Shen You for a long time in the hall.

Concubine Shen Gui hadn't taken off the black cloak, she still had a look of displeasure on her face, and finally said, "It seems that brother has decided to take this last step."

Shen You smiled bitterly, rolled up his sleeves, and looked at the faintly emerging scorpion pattern on his arm, "Sister, there are some things I can't control anymore, do you know what it is?"

Concubine Shen said coldly: "What I am most concerned about now is Jing Rou and Yuan'er!"

"Why am I not worried about Yuan'er?" Shen You shook his head and sighed, "You see, I just had the thought of procrastination in my heart, and the poison of the emperor's gu in my body began to take effect. I'm afraid I won't live for three days. If I die suddenly, the imperial court can use excuses to cut power. How can Yuan'er protect himself? If the general's mansion collapses, sister, do you think you are still the Concubine Shen who loves the harem ?”

"You...what did you say?" Concubine Shen Gui exclaimed, stood up and stroked Shen You's sleeves, her eyes fell on the scorpion pattern, "You...you were actually controlled by Jin Kingdom's witchcraft? !"

Shen You smiled desolately, "No one in Jin would believe in the loyalty of chess pieces. If you didn't use these, you think I would work so hard? The power that Dayun gave me is enough for three generations of our Shen family to prosper. Why should I be like a fool? The Great Cloud of Destruction?"

Concubine Shen Gui suddenly let out a sneer, and there was quite a bit of self-deprecation in the laughter, "So, on the day of Chu Shan's marriage, you must mutiny against Lin'an?"

"I have no choice." Shen You replied in a deep voice.

Concubine Shen Gui couldn't help asking: "Do you think that the Jin Kingdom will definitely fulfill its original promise?"

"I don't know." Shen You lowered his head and sighed, "If the big cloud disappears, I will naturally have no use for it. I'm afraid Yuan'er will be even worse than now."

"It's ridiculous, since you know the result, why do you still want to seek rebellion?" Concubine Shen Gui didn't understand what Shen You meant.

Shen You also let out a self-deprecating laugh, "Didn't I just say that I have no choice. Nine Thousand Years has already prepared soldiers and horses. Even if I don't do it on Princess Chushan's wedding day, he will do it. Only I followed suit to delay the opportunity, so that Yuan'er and you have the opportunity to leave Lin'an."

"What do you mean by that?" Shen Guifei's eyes flashed.

Shen You fixedly looked at his younger sister, "I know some things are because I am a bit ruthless as an older brother, but I always only want our Shen family to be safe. So this time, the purpose of plotting rebellion is not to be loyal to Da Jin, but to give Yuan'er will leave a way of life with you."

"Do you think I will believe what you say?" Concubine Shen Gui raised her eyebrows and asked.

Shen You smiled bitterly and said: "On the wedding day, I will leave a carriage at the Beigong Gate, and I will prepare enough gold and silver in the carriage. Once the mutiny in the imperial city begins, the carriage will send you and Jing Rou away in the chaos. Lin'an." After a short pause, Shen You said again, "Yuan'er drives the carriage personally, Yuan'er is a quick-tempered person, with you by my side in the future, I can avoid suffering and I can feel more at ease."

"you……"

"Yuan'er is the only child of the Shen family after all, sister, this is the only time in my life I beg you."

The inner hall fell silent again in an instant.

After a long time, Shen Guifei said in a deep voice: "Brother, I will believe you for the last time."

"it is good!"

The two clapped their hands with a crisp sound.

Shen You finally landed a big rock, and felt a sharp pain in his arm, and the pattern of the scorpion seemed to become clearer. He couldn't help taking a breath, holding back the pain, walked to the door of the inner hall, and walked towards the servant who was ten steps away. Called: "What time is this?"

The servant replied respectfully: "It's almost time to go back to the general."

Shen You turned back to Shen Guifei and said: "In two hours, the palace gate will open, if my sister feels tired, you can rest here for a while."

Concubine Shen Gui nodded slightly, sat back, suddenly thought of something, and asked: "Why haven't you seen Yuaner today?"

Shen You thought for a while, and seemed to feel that something was wrong, and then asked the servant Xiangcai, "Did you see the young master tonight?"

The servant hurriedly replied: "Back to the general, it seems that the young master did not return to the mansion today."

"What?!" Shen You was shocked, recalling that today he and Shen Yuan came out of the imperial city together, Shen Yuan only said that he would go to the brothel to drink a few glasses of wine to relieve his troubles, and he would definitely return home when the lamp was on, but he never expected Shen Yuan didn't come back, "You took a few people to find the young master, when did you come back? How dare you hangover in the brothel, when will this kid really grow up?"

Shen Guifei suddenly stood up from her seat, shook her head and said: "No, I should go back to the palace earlier. These days there are always fox shadows in the palace, today I am not in the harem, I am always worried about what changes will happen in the palace?"

Shen You asked doubtfully, "Fox Shadow?"

Concubine Shen nodded and said: "That's right, after much deliberation, I'm afraid that the empress would have dared to play so boldly in the palace. Although she has the name of empress these years, she has no power of empress, and even her son If you can't become the crown prince, you must hate me to the bone. Since my brother has decided to start a riot in three days, there can't be any changes in the harem in the next few days."

"That makes sense, then I'll send someone to take you back to the palace, my sister. The guards on duty at the West Palace Gate tonight are from my side, and my sister should not be found when she goes back there." Shen You nodded repeatedly.

"Ah."

Not long after, a carriage left from the back door of General Zhen Guo's Mansion and headed straight for the West Palace Gate.

At the same time, Zi Yuan took A Ling and left the imperial city safely, walking among the alleys of Lin'an.

The lights of hundreds of houses are long, and at night in Lin'an, the stars in the sky and the sporadic lights in the world complement each other, which is a rare peaceful scene.

I just don't know how many more days there will be in this kind of peace?

A Ling realized that the direction Ziyuan was going was not Zui Jinyan, so she couldn't help but stop and asked, "Where are you going?"

Ziyuan took a deep breath and said: "I'm really bored tonight, I want to have some fun, you..." Ziyuan looked at A Ling up and down, seeing her dressed up as the captain of the Imperial Guard, "You You can also try your luck with me."

Ah Ling asked suspiciously, "Where are you going?"

"Chunhua Pavilion." Ziyuan raised her eyebrows and smiled.

How could Ah Ling not know that it was a fireworks brothel, "What are you doing there?"

Ziyuan smiled and said, "Naturally, I will go to Dai Dai, the number one girl there, and ask her to do me a favor."

"What time is it, are you still in the mood to mess around?" Ah Ling gave Ziyuan a cold look, "You clearly know that something will happen to Princess Chushan's wedding, and now you don't plan to take precautions, but you still have the mind..." Ah Ling suddenly reacted in the middle of speaking, and suddenly said, "Did you think of a way to break the situation?"

Ziyuan nodded, "Shen You has a full 39 movable soldiers and horses in his hands. Even if I nail Lin'an City full of iron plates, I can't stop his army. The so-called capture the king first, since I can't stop his soldiers and horses, so I have to go another way. Do you know what Shen You's lifeblood is?"

Ah Ling thought for a while and said, "Shen Yuan?"

Zi Yuan smiled and nodded, "That's right, Shen Yuan! The place of fireworks has always been his favorite place. During the National Fragrance Ceremony, Miss Dai Dai from Chunhua Pavilion was considered to be in the limelight. How could Shen Yuan miss such a beauty?" Son? So go ask her tonight, maybe you can find a chance to catch Shen Yuan!"

Ah Ling frowned and said, "Actually, even if Shen You is held hostage, Lin'an City may not be able to be kept."

Ziyuan smiled softly, "I know."

Ah Ling was a little surprised, "Since you know, why don't you follow my advice and try to get Zhexue back, and you two stay away from Lin'an..."

Ziyuan stared at A Ling, and smiled, "I know that Lin'an City won't last long, and Hanxi Pass can't last long. Since Shen You and Cao Ya are the spies of the Jin Dynasty, they must listen to the emperor's words. There are so many soldiers and horses in the Jin Kingdom who will only listen to the words of the Great Jin Emperor, so there is only one way to keep us all safe!"

Before Ah Ling could speak, Ziyuan put her hands on Ah Ling's shoulders, and said solemnly: "Xiao Zhanxue, you want to become the new master of the Jin Dynasty. Only in this way can Dayun be spared from the disaster of subjugation of the country, and my Xue family can stay away from it." Gu trouble, sister can really live freely."

"Now I..."

"Don't you still have me?" Ziyuan smiled slightly, "I have already thought about it. Three days later, I will prepare the carriage and park it outside the palace gate. As long as I have Shen Yuan's life in my hands, we will be able to There is a glimmer of hope to leave Lin'an. Before that, everyone's attention must be on the wedding ceremony of the princess's wedding, and the palace guards in the harem must be more relaxed than usual. It is also reasonable for me to send more people to assist in the patrol Middle. At that time, you and I will work hard to find my sister in the palace, and we will find out the longevity cup quickly..." At this point, Ziyuan shook her head and thought again, "Even if you don't find the longevity cup, We can make a fake one, since few people in the world have ever seen the real Longevity Cup, maybe we can fool Emperor Jin."

A Ling sneered and said: "The previous thought is reliable, but the latter one, don't think about it. I have seen the picture book of the Longevity Cup. Naturally, both Ayena and Father have seen the picture book, especially Ayena, he He is the one who knows the effect of the Longevity Cup the most, if I use a fake one..."

"We can make a fake one and let someone who wants to take the longevity cup take it away." Ziyuan interrupted A Ling's words, "This kind of thing that will lose your head is naturally left to a fool. We just have to wait for the opportunity Succeed." Saying that, Ziyuan thought for a while, "If Emperor Jin still hasn't given birth to a son in the past three years, and now King Shu is imprisoned in Dayun, King Qi is the person closest to the dragon chair, we just need to pull him Come down, you will have a chance to sit on that dragon chair, won't you?"

"..."

"Don't worry, I will help you become the Queen of Jin no matter what." Ziyuan smiled at A Ling, "So, are you seeing Miss Dai Dai or not?"

Ah Ling glared at her, "What are you still doing in a daze? Let's go!" Suddenly felt warm in the palm of his hand, and was startled to find that the quilt was quietly holding her hand, "What are you doing?"

Ziyuan shrugged helplessly, "I'm afraid that you will become a headless chicken looking for Chunhua Pavilion again, so I have to lead you away, but I have to tighten up!"

As soon as the voice fell, Ziyuan pointed her toes, and flew up to the eaves with A Ling, "We might as well take the path faster."

Ah Ling quietly looked at Zi Yuan's side face in astonishment, and the image of that momentary kiss today came back to her mind, she quietly blushed, and secretly said in her heart: "Stinky girl, don't be so kind to me, otherwise... I'm afraid I have broken my promise to Zhexue!"
