Spring in the East Palace

Xu Chong has already passed away, and it is impossible for the Eastern Palace to dig up the body's grave and ask for the answer, because there is no way to get it.

So it is reasonable to mention Xu Zhong.

"When it comes to changing dynasties, the most taboo thing is the previous dynasty. Your Highness is in a high position now. Even if people from vassal states and neighboring countries are dissatisfied with Yan State, they dare not keep causing trouble for Your Highness so unscrupulously." Shen Muyin gradually calmed down.

She stared at Qin Chuyan without blinking, without any guilt.

Under such circumstances, Donggong just listened coldly with no expression on his face.

"It's too easy for these people to reveal their identities in Yan State. If they are discovered, it will only give Yan State a reason to send troops. That's why I guess that they are probably people from the previous dynasty, so they are hiding so secretly." Shen Muyin explained comprehensively.

She could clearly feel Qin Chuyan's mood relaxing.

But even so, Shen Muyin's heart, which was stuck in his throat, did not relax and remained tense.

She reviewed it carefully and felt that what she said made a lot of sense and Qin Chuyan would no longer have any doubts.

Under such circumstances, Shen Muyin seemed even calmer.

"You are good at speaking." Qin Chuyan then completely let go of Shen Muyin.

Shen Muyin was sweating profusely. He really felt like he was reborn from hell. Only now did his heart finally settle down.

She thought the matter was over, but unexpectedly, Qin Chuyan took the initiative to explain.

"People from the previous dynasty have been lurking in Yan State and have been planning for a long time, but they are hiding very deeply, and it will be difficult for my people to find them for the time being." Qin Chuyan said lightly.

Shen Muyin bit her lip slightly and wanted to speak, but when she thought of what had just happened, she suddenly became silent.

Qin Chuyan sneered: "You were quite eloquent just now, why are you silent now?"

"I'm afraid that if Your Highness gets angry, I'll lose my life." Shen Muyin told the truth.

Qin Chuyan seemed to ignore Shen Muyin, and just lowered his eyebrows without moving his eyelids: "I will keep you until I am in a bad mood and then kill you."

Shen Muyin: "..."

It would be better to kill him now.

"Just speak when I tell you to." Qin Chuyan played with the teacup beside him and put it down.

Shen Muyin suppressed her heartbeat and spoke calmly, "I guess that the person who hid in the court in the previous dynasty was definitely not an unknown person, otherwise, he would not be able to get such accurate information."

Even a person in a high position of power.

But Shen Muyin couldn't say too much, let alone make random guesses, because she had no idea.

This person hid so deeply that even the Eastern Palace couldn't find him. If she acted rashly, innocent people would inevitably be pushed out as scapegoats.

That would be a real waste of life.

"What do you think?" Qin Chuyan continued to ask calmly.

Shen Muyin looked at Qin Chuyan, their eyes collided in the air, and then Shen Muyin spoke calmly: "I said, Your Highness does not blame me?"

"Speak." Qin Chuyan said briefly.

Shen Muyin became calmer.

She felt that her guess was correct. Who could cause such a huge storm in the State of Yan?

That's only people from the previous dynasty.

Including the Eastern Palace, everyone was extremely wary of the people from the previous dynasty. But unfortunately, the Eastern Palace could not find them either.

It’s like the person hiding in the dark, controlling everything with one hand.

It’s too difficult to rely on her.

If we drag the East Palace into this, many things will become much easier.

And only this important information from the people of the previous dynasty can make the East Palace stand on his side unconditionally.

With this thought in mind, Shen Muyin looked frankly at the East Palace in front of him.

"Your Highness, Yan State is surrounded by mountains on three sides and faces the sea on one side. Land and sea transportation are the lifeblood of Yan State." Shen Muyin said quietly, "If someone controls Yan State's land and sea transportation, then if something really happens, it will only be disadvantageous to Yan State."

Qin Chuyan's eyes became even darker, as if he was considering Shen Muyin's words.

"If my information is correct, shipping is now firmly in the hands of someone. In order to avoid the evidence appearing to be conclusive, it appears scattered, but the person in charge behind the scenes is the same person." Shen Muyin continued.

These are all facts. There is absolutely no possibility that the memories that Shen Muyin brought from his previous life could have any deviations.

Shen Muyin paused for a moment and said, "And salt. Salt is the source of life. If salt is controlled by merchants, it can also shake the foundation."

It was precisely because these things were too small and looked extremely scattered that the king of Yan completely lost his vigilance.

When Shen Muyin mentioned it, Qin Chuyan's eyes became more and more serious, and there was a hint of inquiry in his eyes as he looked at her.

Shen Muyin is not simple.

Even the ministers in the court often fail to fully understand these principles.

But a girl can analyze it directly and thoroughly, which really makes people look at her differently.

When Qin Chuyan was looking at Shen Muyin, Shen Muyin was not frightened, but was trying to guess what this man was thinking.

"How did you know?" Dong Gong asked Shen Muyin word by word.

Shen Muyin was very calm: "I grew up in the common people, and I have heard more sufferings of the common people than in Kyoto. Kyoto is too prosperous, and it has covered up many ugly and quiet scenes."

"Okay. I will trust you for now." Qin Chuyan's eyes darkened slightly, "How much do you know? Tell me in detail."

"I'm not sure, but if my information is correct, a batch of salt is about to be smuggled out of Yan State. Once this batch of salt leaves Yan State, it will cause turmoil in Yan State, the price of salt will soar, and the people will naturally complain." Shen Muyin's voice was very low, but every word he said was very serious.

Donggong just looked at Shen Muyin like that.

He was too familiar with such a determined look.

If a person is not so determined, his eyes will not be so firm and unwavering. Qin Chuyan even saw hatred in Shen Muyin's eyes.

Interesting, who does Shen Muyin hate?

There was a barely visible gleam of light in Qin Chuyan's eyes.

But soon, a new thought came to his mind. Could it be that Shen Muyin’s hatred came from people from the previous dynasty?

If not, why did she mention it so repeatedly?

"Go on." Qin Chuyan said lightly.

"As long as there is news, Your Highness can take the initiative and perhaps get some clues." Shen Muyin said calmly.

The two people's eyes collided in the air, and for a moment, Shen Muyin felt that Qin Chuyan was going to strangle her neck.

But the next moment, Qin Chuyan suddenly looked at her with a smile, and pinched Shen Muyin's chin with his bony fingers, half forcing her to look at him.

Shen Muyin's heart beat faster.

"Shen Muyin, why do I feel that you are using me to do things for you?" Qin Chuyan sneered and asked every word clearly.

Shen Muyin: "..."

Why is the intuition of this Donggong so sharp? We are all smart people, so why not pretend to be stupid?

Besides, the Eastern Palace didn’t suffer any loss in this matter, right?
