The little dark guard who travels between two lives

The next day, Yu Huaian brought Yu Shen to Qin's house. Xin He was very happy to see Yu Shen, and Nan Er was also very happy to see this older brother.

Yu Shen was already a twelve-year-old boy, and his appearance became more and more handsome. Looking at him, Xinhe felt that Brother Shen was becoming more and more like Prime Minister Yu in his previous life.

Although Yu Shen had a stern face and didn't like to laugh, Nan'er, like her sister, was not afraid of this cold big brother. The fat boy ran to Yu Shen, stretched out his fat arms, and called his brother with a smile: "Brother, hug Nan'er."

My mother is not in good health, my sister is too weak to hold the little fat boy, and my father is too busy to hold me. But my big brother is stronger than my sister, and he can hold me every time he comes. Nan'er likes her big brother to hold her.

Yu Shen looked at this thick-skinned fat boy, who always insisted on hugging him, whether he wanted to or not. Even if he had more strength, he would still feel tired hugging a fat guy.

Xin He stood aside and watched Yu Shen's embarrassment with a smile, as if she was gloating over his misfortune. Yu Shen glared at her, but still bent down and picked up the fat boy.

Nan'er's vision suddenly became much higher, and she felt that the scenery was completely different. She excitedly directed her brother and sister: "Let's go to the garden, let's go to the garden to play."

Yu Shen could only accept his fate and walked towards the back garden with Fatty and Xin He. Yu Shen looked at Xin He and asked, "I heard from Daddy that you got into trouble in the palace again."

Xin He glared at Yu Shen, pouted and said, "Uncle Yu would definitely not say that. He would definitely not say that I got into trouble. Uncle Yu would definitely praise me for my improvement in martial arts."

Yu Shen wanted to laugh. The little girl was right. Daddy really didn't think Xin He was in trouble. Yesterday, when Daddy came back, he kept praising his apprentice, saying that the little girl was extremely talented and had accomplished something big with just one move. He didn't think it was so bold to act in front of the emperor.

Nan'er didn't understand what his brother and sister were saying, but as a younger brother, Nan'er knew when to support his sister. Fat Tuanzi smiled and flattered his sister, "Sister, make progress. Sister is the best!"

Xin He was very satisfied and kissed her brother on the face: "Nan'er is great too!" Nan'er giggled happily, then pointed at Yu Shen and said: "Brother is great too, sister kisses you!"

Xin He immediately stepped forward and covered the little fat man's mouth. He was really outspoken and dared to say anything. That was the future Prime Minister!

When Yu Shen heard what Fatty said, he froze immediately. Looking at the brother and sister who were in a panic, he coughed awkwardly, pretending he didn't hear anything. He picked up Fatty's pace and pulled Xinhe behind him.

Xinhe followed Yu Shen somewhat embarrassedly and did not notice the faint blush on the face of the future Prime Minister.

In the Qin Mansion's study, Yu Huaian and Qin Mingxuan were discussing the poison for General Shen. Yesterday, the secret guards secretly stole some perfume powder from Concubine Shen's palace and sent it to the secret guard camp to find a poison expert to check.

There are still many experts in Yu Huaian's secret guard camp. After inspection, it was found that the perfume powder was indeed a special poison, specially used on women. When men and women make love, men will be poisoned. The poison seeps into the body little by little. The poisoned man will only feel tired and have no other reactions. Moreover, the skilled doctors cannot find out the cause. Over time, the man will die of severe physical damage, and there will be no abnormality.

After Yu Huaian told Qin Mingxuan the results of the inspection, he said bitterly: "This old man is too cruel. The woman looked more beautiful after taking the poison, but she also aged very quickly and eventually died of the poison. He even spared his own daughter. He is worse than a beast."

Yu Huaian went on to say: "After the account book left by Lord Zhao is sent to the capital, we should arrest this old man as soon as possible. Keeping him here will always be a nuisance."

Qin Mingxuan nodded and said, "Indeed, in recent years, General Shen has won over many people in the court and has also raised many assassins in secret. The assassins that Brother Huai'an encountered when he returned to the capital last time were very skilled. If the emperor hadn't sent someone to pick him up, Brother Huai'an would have almost been unable to return. I don't know if the account book can be successfully delivered this time."

Yu Huaian said hesitantly after hearing what Qin Mingxuan said: "It should go smoothly, right? The secret guards arranged to escort the account books this time are masters in my camp."

At this time, the Qin Mansion's housekeeper hurried in and reported: "Master, Master Yu, someone came from the palace and urgently summoned the two masters to the palace. He said that something big had happened and the emperor was angry in the palace."

Yu Huaian and Qin Mingxuan looked at each other, and immediately asked the housekeeper to prepare the carriage and quickly entered the palace. Before leaving, he asked the housekeeper to report to Ji Wanran and ask the lady to take good care of Yu Shen, which meant that the adults would come to pick him up after they were done.

Yu Shen and Xin He were having fun with Nan'er in the garden. When Xin He heard that the palace had urgently summoned the two adults, she became a little worried. She thought that something big must have happened since the Emperor urgently summoned his father and Adult Yu.

Yu Shen saw that Xin He was a little absent-minded, so he asked Xin He what was wrong. Xin He told Yu Shen about the poisoning by Shen Taiwei through Shen Bin. Xin He whispered to Yu Shen: "Brother Shen, I dreamed that Shen Taiwei succeeded in poisoning and killed the emperor. I am so afraid that what I dreamed of will come true. I don't want anything to happen to the emperor."

Yu Shen frowned and asked, "Is this the reason why you attacked Concubine Shen in the palace yesterday?" Xin He nodded, "Yes, Concubine Shu smelled that Concubine Shen had changed her fragrance, and I was a little worried when I thought of the dream, so I took action first. I originally wanted to discuss it with Daddy after leaving the palace, but Daddy had already found evidence that General Shen was making poison, so I guess I got what I wanted by accident."

Xin He remembered something and said to Shen with a serious face: "Brother Shen, do you know? That bad woman Su Peiyun is actually dead!"

Yu Shen's face also froze. Before, Yu Shen had heard Xin He tell him about Su Peiyun's bad intentions, and he had sent people to follow her, but they didn't find anything. But how could she die suddenly?

Xin He told Yu Shen what happened in the Su family's hometown, and then wondered, "I always feel that Su Peiyun's death was inexplicable. This has never happened in my dream, and now I can't find out anything, but I always feel uneasy."

Yu Shen thought for a while and said, "Since we can't find anything now, we can only accept the reality that Su Peiyun is dead. The key now is that Shen Taiwei actually dared to attack the emperor. He deserves death!"

The two little guys were discussing things in the garden, while Yu Huaian and Qin Mingxuan had already entered the palace to see the emperor. The emperor was indeed very angry. When he saw the two of them entering the palace, he threw down a secret letter in anger: "You two, take a look, you are simply crazy."

Yu Huaian picked up the letter and saw that it was an urgent report from the secret guards sent by Jiangnan. The account books escorted by the secret guards were intercepted by men in black as soon as they left the city gate. The secret guards were defeated and the account books were eventually snatched away. What was even more infuriating was that Mrs. Zhao and her daughter, who had been properly settled, were also killed, and the evidence was once again destroyed.

Yu Huaian was shocked. He suddenly looked up at Qin Mingxuan in surprise: "How...how is this possible? I arranged for capable secret guards to take action, and the place where the mother and daughter were placed was also very hidden. How could they be discovered and act so cruelly?"

What Qin Mingxuan was worried about just now finally became a reality. The power of this General Shen was far greater than they had imagined.

Qin Mingxuan reported to the emperor: "Your Majesty, Lord Yu was discovered even though he acted so secretly. It shows that Commander Shen sent people to follow Lord Yu secretly, and was able to know the details of Lord Yu's actions, and was able to send assassins to quickly destroy the physical evidence and authentication. It is terrifying to think about it carefully."

Yu Huaian also said: "Yes, Your Majesty, this is probably because they usually monitor your every move and that of your ministers, so they can quickly kill them."

The emperor had a gloomy face. He had repeatedly gone against him and assassinated his ministers and subordinates. He didn't take him, the emperor, seriously at all. This was simply a slap in his own face.

The emperor seemed to be able to see the smug and arrogant smile on the face of Shen Taiwei. The emperor slammed his hand on the desk and shouted angrily: "Shen Tuo, shameless and treacherous! I can't let him off easily."

Qin Mingxuan hurriedly comforted the emperor: "Your Majesty, calm down! Now that we know about Shen Taiwei's drug manufacturing, we have the upper hand. We still need to discuss what to do next."

The emperor took a long breath, calmed down the anger in his chest and asked: "Then what should we do next? We can't let this thief go unchecked."

The room suddenly became tense. The emperor and his ministers all knew that they could not easily take action without solid evidence. Shen Taiwei had been in the court for many years, and he must have a lot of people around him, and Empress Dowager Shen in the palace was behind him. If the emperor arrested Shen Taiwei without any evidence, Empress Dowager Shen would definitely not agree.

Qin Mingxuan pondered for a long time and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, we can spread the word that the stolen account book has been copied in advance, and there are confessions left by Madam Zhao and her daughter. We can say that the evidence has been safely in the hands of the emperor."

Yu Huaian slapped his thigh and said, "Yes, Your Majesty, let's play a double game with him. When General Shen hears the news, he will be afraid that the truth will be exposed. He might even jump out on his own initiative, and then we can catch him."

Qin Mingxuan continued, "As for the poison, please ask Brother Huai'an to ask the experts in the Dark Guard Camp to make a non-toxic one based on the incense to replace the poison. First, we must ensure that the emperor is safe."

Yu Huaian rolled his eyes and said to the emperor with a smile: "I have another idea. Your Majesty should summon Concubine Shen a few more times in the palace, so that General Shen will think that his poison has been used on Your Majesty."

The emperor glanced at Yu Huaian, who chuckled a few times, scratched his head and said, "I am not interfering in the affairs of the emperor's harem. I am mainly trying to make Shen Taiwei think that his evil plan has succeeded, so that he will take the next step."

The emperor looked at Qin Mingxuan: "What do you think?" Qin Mingxuan nodded: "I think it's feasible. We can force General Shen outside the palace, and let him think he has succeeded in the palace. Maybe he will be unable to sit still. Then the emperor can take him down with good reason."

The emperor heard his ministers asking him to pamper his concubine. It seemed a bit awkward to bring this up in the court, but it turned out to be a good strategy. Let the old thief Shen Tuo think he was poisoned and see what else he could do.

The king and his ministers had already discussed the matter. At this time, General Shen was feeling proud in his own residence. General Shen looked at the secret report in his hand and almost wanted to laugh out loud.

The emperor thought that the evidence left by Lord Zhao could convict him, but he didn't know that the emperor and Yu Huaian were being monitored all the time. Thanks to the spies deployed by Prince Cheng, the news was received in time.

He had not expected that the Jiangnan Governor actually had a backup plan. Fortunately, he got the news in advance and quickly sent out assassins to easily eliminate Mrs. Zhao and her daughter, and successfully retrieved the account book.

Now the emperor has no witnesses or physical evidence. He must be furious. Thinking of this, Shen Taiwei finally couldn't help laughing out loud. He asked his subordinate standing by with his hands hanging down, "Has the perfume powder been sent to the palace?"

The subordinate reported back: "My Lord, the powder has been sent to the palace in the name of the Madam, and the palace has not found anything. Aunt Suqin sent a letter saying that she has persuaded the Madam to use it. But..."

Seeing his hesitation, General Shen said impatiently, "Just what? Don't hesitate." His subordinate said, "It's just that Concubine Shen accidentally sprained her ankle. She may not be able to accompany the emperor for a while. She needs to rest for a few days."

Commandant Shen was stunned, then muttered in disgust: "You are so incompetent that you sprained your ankle even though you were fine." His men did not dare to say a word and stood aside waiting for orders.

Shen Taiwei then said, "Get some quick-acting medicine from Doctor Mo and have Madam deliver it to Concubine Shen in the palace."

Shen Taiwei paused and said, "What news has the prince sent over recently?"

The subordinate replied: "Oh, I just received news that the prince said he has found out that Lord Yu Huaian seems to have sent people to southern Xinjiang to investigate Lord Yu's affairs in southern Xinjiang."

Commandant Shen's face sternly asked, "Have they also suspected southern Xinjiang?" Thinking about what he had done in southern Xinjiang, Commandant Shen immediately said, "Go and tell Prince Cheng to cut off any clues in southern Xinjiang immediately. The emperor must not know what I did in southern Xinjiang."

The men responded and were about to leave. Commander Shen then remembered something and said, "Also, let Doctor Mo stay away for a while and not show up in front of others."

The subordinates hurried away after hearing the order. Commander Shen pondered for a long time. Would the emperor suspect the poison? Why did Yu Huaian and the others think of going to southern Xinjiang to check?

After thinking for a long time, Commandant Shen believed that what he had done was flawless and it was impossible for him to be suspicious. Perhaps it was because he frequently bought medicinal materials from southern Xinjiang that alarmed the emperor.

However, I bought the herbs under the pretext of preparing supplements for the Empress Dowager. Even if they found out something, this excuse would be enough to shut them up.

When Commandant Shen thought of this, he finally felt relieved. He felt that he was a little paranoid, because the emperor had been investigating the Jiangnan corruption case, which made him panic. Now that the last witness and material evidence had been destroyed, Jiangnan could rest easy.
