The little dark guard who travels between two lives

Chapter 138 Separate Investigations

Xin He looked at Yu Shen and continued, "Brother Shen, although the court and the world have been peaceful and nothing has happened in the past few years, I have always been uneasy in my heart."

She reached out and grabbed Yu Shen's sleeve: "Brother Shen, please help me. Let's be careful of Prince Cheng. He was just a county prince before, but he is already so powerful."

"Now that he has gained the trust of the emperor and the prince, he has become the highly praised King Cheng in the court. I always feel that he is not like this, and something bad will definitely happen. Yes, King Cheng is also waiting for an opportunity. We must not let our guard down."

Yu Shen was a little confused: "I have also heard my father and master talk about this Cheng Wang, but I really haven't found anything unusual so far! Sister Xin'er, is your dream true?"

Xin He said anxiously: "Of course it's true. In my dream, Brother Shen, you have been fighting with Prince Cheng, protecting the prince and avenging your father."

She pointed to her chest: "And I did die from his sword, Brother Shen, it really hurts!" The feeling of the sharp sword blade piercing through her chest was so painful. Whenever she thought of that scene, Xinhe still felt that the sword was still stuck in her chest.

Yu Shen looked at Xin He's painful expression, and quickly stepped forward, stretched out his hands, grabbed Xin He's arms, and shook them gently: "Xin Er sister, don't think about it, don't think about that dream anymore, I will definitely protect you in this life."

Xinhe looked at Yu Shen and recalled that in her previous life, when Prince Cheng's sword was stabbing towards her and Xinhe's wife, Prime Minister Yu pulled his wife over and placed himself under the sword.

That kind of pain seemed to be even stronger than the pain of being stabbed by a sword. What was I thinking before I died in my previous life? Yes, before I died in my previous life, I was thinking that this life was too hard. I was alone and no one cared about me. My humble feelings were despised and mocked by others. This kind of life was too hard! I died and finally got relief!

Perhaps it was because God couldn't bear to see how miserable I had been in my past life that he gave me a chance to start over and change my destiny.

Her current life is already very good for her. As for other relationships, Xinhe cannot face them now. She doesn’t know whether she still has the possibility of accepting Yu Shen.

Therefore, she interrupted Yu Shen's words just now, not wanting him to say those words out loud. At present, for her, the biggest threat and the most terrible enemy in her previous life still exist. Moreover, compared with her previous life, the king in this life is even more unfathomable. This is what Xinhe is most concerned about.

Xin He put away the grief in her heart, narrowed her eyes and looked at Yu Shen: "Yes, I believe Brother Shen will protect me. We must protect our father and the Queen and the Emperor together. Don't let King Cheng succeed."

Yu Shen looked at Xinhe's smile. The little girl still had a painful expression on her face when she recalled the nightmare just now. Now, in order to reassure him, she forced a smile in front of him, just because she didn't want him to worry about her.

This little girl has always been considerate of others since she was young. She wants to repay any kindness and care shown to her by others and give them her heart.

Yu Shen sighed, and put aside the words in his mind for the time being. He looked up at Xin He and said, "Oh, by the way, I once persuaded Dad to send people to Southern Xinjiang to investigate the matter of King Cheng. So far, nothing unusual has been found. We only found out that the rebellious King of Southern Xinjiang sent people to Beijing to rescue King Cheng and his mother from the cold palace before his death."

Xin He's eyes widened: "But I heard that Concubine Mei died in the cold palace, and Prince Cheng also grew up in the palace. It can be seen that those people did not succeed."

Yu Shen shook his head and said, "That's the weird part. Although King Cheng grew up in the palace, according to investigation, the people sent out were all the trusted elites of the King of Southern Xinjiang. They all disappeared later and did not die in the rebellion, but no news about them could be found."

"Oh, and I heard that the King of Southern Xinjiang had a huge fortune, but after the rebellion, the money disappeared. After the previous dynasty pacified Southern Xinjiang, they also searched for the treasure in Southern Xinjiang, but found nothing."

Yu Shen hesitated for a moment: "So, there was once a folk saying that the late emperor was jealous of the King of Southern Xinjiang's treasure, so he found an excuse to start with his favorite concubine and forced the King of Southern Xinjiang to rebel. In fact, it was all for the treasure."

Xin He opened her eyes wide in shock: "There is also this matter. If this treasure really exists, the King of Southern Xinjiang guards the border, has treasures in his hands, soldiers under his command, and is powerful in one area. He also has a favorite concubine sister and a prince with Southern Xinjiang blood in the capital. This is very enviable."

Xin He murmured to himself: "The legendary treasure, the missing elite, if all of these fell into the hands of King Cheng, then..."

Yu Shen was also surprised after hearing Xin He's words: "Yes, if it is true as the rumors say, the King of Southern Xinjiang will definitely leave a way out for his sister and nephew when he starts his army. This way out may be..."

Xin He suddenly turned around and said to Shen, "Brother Shen, please send the secret guards to continue investigating in Southern Xinjiang. Also, please find a way to find out what happened to Concubine Mei and her son after she was sent to the cold palace."

Yu Shen nodded in response. Xin He patted her dress and said, "I want to go find Dad and ask him what happened to the rebellion in Southern Xinjiang?"

Xin Hua waved at Yu Shen and said, "Brother Shen, let's go and investigate separately. We can get together later to sort out the information we have found out." After that, she lifted up her skirt and hurriedly ran towards Qin Mingxuan's study.

Yu Shen looked at Xin He's impetuous back, and the corners of his mouth rose. This girl has never learned to walk properly since she was a child. Sighing, Yu Shen prepared to leave Qin's house and go home to arrange secret guards.

Now that he is growing up, his father has begun to let him gradually get involved in the affairs of the Dark Guard Camp after obtaining the emperor's permission. He has to quickly arrange the things that Xinhe has assigned him.

Just after turning around a bush of flowers, Yu Shen was startled by a timid voice of "Brother Shen". Looking up, he saw Qin Qingyan standing next to a rockery, looking timid and as if she had suffered a great injustice.

Yu Shen took a step back and said coldly, "Miss, is there something wrong?"

Qin Qingyan's expression became even more aggrieved: "Brother Shen, you call my sister Sister Xin'er, why are you so unfamiliar with me and call me Miss? Brother Shen, do you hate me so much?"

Qin Qingyan had an aggrieved expression on her face, but her heart was filled with hatred. Yu Shen had been so cold since the first time he saw her. She had no grudge against him, so it must be because her sister said bad things about her in front of him that Yu Shen didn't want to pay attention to her.

He got angry when he thought of this. It wasn't just Yu Shen. In the palace, whenever he was with Xinhe, except for the Second Prince who was kind to him, the other princes and princes were also always nice to Xinhe and polite to him.

Why? Why? We have the same appearance, and my behavior, my literary talent and demeanor are much better than that crazy little girl. Why do they only have eyes for Xin He?
