The little dark guard who travels between two lives

Taiwei Shen asked Lord Wang with a gloomy face: "Did the prince say how to deal with the physical evidence?" Lord Wang said: "The prince said that he would ask Lord Yu to bring the physical evidence to the palace tomorrow, and then convene a cabinet meeting to determine how to deal with this matter."

After Lord Wang finished speaking, he put on his veil again and bowed to Commandant Shen: "Take care, Commandant Shen. I can't stay long. Goodbye!" Commandant Shen bowed to express his gratitude and ordered the butler to quietly send Lord Wang out of the house.

After thinking deeply for a while in his study, Shen Taiwei asked someone to invite Lu Meisheng and Wu Ming, the leader of his secret guards. When the two arrived, Shen Taiwei ordered Wu Ming: "Send a few capable men to set fire to Yu Mansion. I want Yu Huaian and the account book to be burned without a trace."

Wu Ming took the order and left quickly. Later, Shen Taiwei instructed Lu Meisheng: "Mr. Lu, call our people immediately and get ready. It will only take one or two days to start the action."

Lu Meisheng sighed and said, "Sir, although today is not the best time to take action, there is no other way. We have to take action. I will make arrangements right away."

Lu Meisheng turned to leave, but seemed to remember something, so he turned back and asked tentatively: "Although the emperor in the palace was poisoned, there are many experts in the Imperial Hospital of the palace, and there are also poison-making experts in Lord Yu's secret guard camp. What if the poison is solved..."

Shen Taiwei raised his hand to stop Lu Meisheng from saying the following words. He suddenly sneered: "Since we are going to take action, we naturally have to add an insurance. Sir, don't worry too much."

Seeing that Captain Shen had already made up his mind, Lu Meisheng stopped talking and left. When he reached his room, Lu Meisheng clapped his hands and a dark shadow came in response: "Please give me your orders, sir."

Lu Meisheng handed a scroll in his hand to the secret guard: "Go, deliver the secret letter to the prince." The black shadow put away the secret letter and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

In a villa in Yushan outside the capital, Prince Cheng, who was rumored to have been traveling around the mountains and rivers, was now sitting steadily in his study.

When the secret guard delivered Lu Meisheng's secret letter to him, Prince Cheng waved his hand to let the secret guard retreat. He unfolded the secret letter and glanced at it, revealing a hint of a smile: "Shen Tuo finally couldn't sit still anymore and bought himself insurance? It seems that he wants to send the emperor to go first."

Prince Cheng turned around and looked at a dark shadow in his room: "How are the people sent to southern Xinjiang by Yu Huaian and Qin Mingxuan going?" The dark shadow was a shadow guard trained by his mother's clan, with a simple code name: Shadow Three, and he has always been inseparable from him.

The shadowy figure bowed and said, "Whatever the prince wants them to find out, they can find out." Prince Cheng smiled, and then asked, "Is the secret guard we left behind still alive?"

"We killed all the others, but the thing we found was on this one person, who happened to be rescued by us. He's still alive!"

Prince Cheng nodded and said, "Okay, now it's my turn to come on stage. We can't just watch the emperor and the prince take a fake account book. As a loyal prince, I have to give the emperor and the prince a big gift!"

Prince Cheng ordered Ying San: "Go and make arrangements. Tomorrow morning, bring Yu Huaian's men and his evidence with us and we'll go to the palace."

Ying San left in response. Prince Cheng looked at the dark night and raised his lips: "This capital is too quiet. It's time for something exciting to happen."

That night, a fire broke out in the residence of Lord Yu Huaian in the capital, burning Lord Yu's study to the ground. Fortunately, Lord Yu took the young master of the Yu family to discuss matters at the home of his colleague Qin Mingxuan that night. As the meeting took too long, Lord Yu and his son stayed at Lord Qin's home and fortunately escaped the fire.

Only Old Madam Yu from the Yu Mansion was frightened. Although the fire did not spread to Old Madam Yu's room, she was suddenly bedridden.

Yu Huaian got the news from home and was so angry that he almost broke Qin Mingxuan's desk with one palm: "Shen Tuo, this old man, actually dared to set fire to destroy the evidence."

Qin Mingxuan sighed, "I didn't expect Shen Tuo to be so desperate and come up with such a dirty trick. Fortunately, you and Shen'er are not in the mansion, but the old lady was frightened. Brother Huai'an, go back and take a look."

Yu Huaian hesitated: "What about today's cabinet meeting?" Qin Mingxuan smiled and said: "We don't have the account book in our hands. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also knows that. If we convene the cabinet to look at the account book, it will only alarm Shen Tuo and force him to take action. It's a good opportunity to stop for the time being today, so that we can make one more day to prepare. I will go to the palace to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince now."

Yu Huaian nodded and looked at his son beside him, "Shen'er, things may change in the next two days, so you should stay at your master's and mistress's home. Your master and I will be traveling frequently, so you should take good care of your master's and mistress and sister Xin'er for the two of us."

Yu Shen was taken care of by his father and taught personally. He also knew that these days had come to the final moment of the decisive battle with Captain Shen. He could not help his master and father with other things, but he could still help his master's wife and sister Xin'er.

Yu Shen nodded solemnly to his father, but Xin He beside him couldn't help but jump up: "There's me, there's me, I can protect mother too."

Yu Huaian and Qin Mingxuan both smiled at the eager little girl. Yu Huaian bent down and pinched Xinhe's nose: "Okay, we still have this peerless master. Remember to protect yourself, which is the most important thing."

Xinhe felt that her father and Uncle Yu had underestimated her. She pouted unhappily but said nothing else. She knew that the situation was urgent these two days and that the scene of forcing the emperor to abdicate that she had seen in her previous life was about to happen. Now that the emperor and her father were prepared, there would definitely be a different result.

Shen, the concubine in the palace, was staring blankly at the person in front of her. Suqin had just come in to report that her mother had sent an old maid to deliver something to her. She was still wondering why her mother didn't come in person, but instead sent an old maid?

When Suqin led the old maid into the house, she waved her hand and asked the waiters in the room to leave. The old maid took off her veil, and Shenpin was shocked when she saw her: "Daddy, why did you come to the palace like this?"

Shen Tuo glanced at Suqin. Suqin walked to the window and looked around. Then she closed the doors and windows of the room, nodded at Captain Shen, and stood aside silently.

Shen Tuo picked up the teacup and drank a glass of water calmly, then put the cup down and looked at his daughter. He had gone to great lengths to send this daughter to the palace, just waiting for such a day.

He asked Concubine Shen: "Yining, do you know that our Shen family is in danger and facing a catastrophe?" Shen Yining suddenly stood up and asked in surprise: "Dad, why do you say that? My daughter has regained her favor in the palace, and the emperor has always treated me well. Although my aunt has been in poor health for some time and has been bedridden, there is no big problem!"

Shen Tuo sighed. His daughter had always been well-educated. She only focused on the small space in the backyard all day long. She was obsessed with love affairs and knew nothing about the affairs of the previous dynasty.

Shen Tuo looked at his frightened daughter and said, "You only know that nothing happened in the harem. But do you know that the emperor has been looking for evidence of my crime and is planning to put me to death?"

Shen Yining nodded hesitantly: "My daughter has heard about this from my aunt, but hasn't the emperor found out anything yet? Daddy is naturally upright and has nothing to fear, so we are not afraid of the emperor's investigation."

Shen Tuo smiled bitterly: "My silly daughter, but I am afraid that your father has been in the officialdom for more than ten years. If I investigate carefully, how can I find nothing? The emperor has long been dissatisfied with our Shen family."

Shen Yining still didn't believe it: "How could it be? The emperor has always been kind to my aunt and father. Daddy, you are almost second to none in the court. My daughter also holds a high position in the harem."

Shen Tuo sneered: "My silly daughter, how can you see the emperor's sinister intentions? He first praises our Shen family highly, and when we let our guard down, he will naturally kill us unexpectedly."

Shen Yining shook her head: "No, I don't believe it. Why did the emperor do this?"

"Because our Shen family is an in-law, and because you hold a high position and have given birth to a prince, how can the emperor tolerate our Shen family becoming too powerful?" Shen Tuo replied coldly to his daughter.

Shen Yining still couldn't believe it: "But, my daughter just wants to live a peaceful life as a concubine, and at most to fight for a good future for Yu'er. My daughter doesn't have any unreasonable thoughts." Shen Yining suddenly thought of something. Suddenly she looked up at her father: "Father, could it be that you..." Shen Yining didn't dare to say the following words. She stopped talking and bit her lips tightly.

Shen Tuo looked at Shen Yining steadily and laughed softly: "Favored concubine? Yining, are you satisfied with just one favorite concubine? Didn't the emperor demote any favored concubine with just one word?"

Shen Tuo stared straight into Shen Yining's eyes: "Yining, look into your father's eyes and tell him. Are you willing to be a concubine who can be demoted at any time? Are you willing to watch the Shen family being suppressed by the emperor? Are you willing to watch your son stand in front of others and be a humble and obedient minister in the future? Tell your father, are you willing?"

Shen Yining didn't dare to look into her father's eyes. She dodged his gaze: "I, I..." Shen Tuo stepped forward and grabbed Shen Yining's hand: "Yining, do you know that the emperor is ready to take action against the Shen family? If it weren't for you being poisoned, I'm afraid you would have to go to prison to see your father and mother now!" Shen Yining was shocked: "Poisoned? Because of me, father, what did you do?"

Shen Tuo sneered, let go of Shen Yining's wrist, and sat back on the chair: "I just took the initiative. The emperor got the evidence of my crimes in Jiangnan. These evidences are enough to destroy our Shen family. I can't watch the Shen family destroyed in my hands. I just asked your mother to send you some specially prepared perfume powder."

"That perfume powder?! Father, you actually used me to poison us. Do you want to kill our daughter and Jingyu?" Shen Yining couldn't hold back her tears anymore and they flowed down her face.

Shen Tuo was unmoved: "Father is not trying to harm you. Father just wants to plan a bright future for you and Jingyu. This world will be owned by Jingyu who has the blood of our Shen family, and my daughter, you will be the supreme queen mother in this world!"

Shen Yining kept shaking her head: "No, you are not doing this for your daughter and Jingyu, you are doing this for yourself! You have already become the supreme commander of the court, what else are you not satisfied with? You still want to do this, you will kill my aunt, kill Jingyu and me, and harm the entire Shen family."

Shen Tuo stepped forward and slapped Shen Yining: "Stupid! You know nothing. Even if you are a favorite concubine, you were demoted by the emperor's words. Although I am the Grand Marshal, I still have an emperor above me. If he wants me to die, do I have to obey him and die? I don't accept it. Why can't my Shen family control the world?"

He looked coldly at his daughter who seemed to be stunned by his slap. "You idiot, you have been in the palace for many years, but you haven't learned anything from your aunt? I finally sent you to the palace, but you only know those love affairs all day long. You only know how to get entangled with Madam Qin all day long. You are really stupid."

Shen Yining covered her face. She was in a daze. When she heard her father's words, she suddenly came to her senses: "Sent my daughter into the palace? Could it be? Could it be that when I was drunk, the emperor accidentally entered my daughter's room, and it was all caused by you, Daddy?"

Shen Tuo made no secret of it: "Yes, it was my father! That bastard Qin Mingxuan looked down on you, so why should our daughter of the Shen family go to such great lengths to marry into the Shen family? You are the legitimate daughter that your father has carefully nurtured, so why not enter the palace and win glory for our Shen family. I just blocked the Qin Mingxuan you were looking forward to, secretly led the emperor over, and went with the flow."

"No!" Shen Yining let out a shrill scream and fell to the ground. It turned out to be her father. She had always thought that Ji Wanran, that bitch, had harmed her, but she didn't know that it was her father who had personally sent her into the deep palace that she didn't want to enter. She hated the wrong person for nothing.

Shen Tuo was afraid that Shen Yining's screams would attract people from the palace, so he gave Suqin a wink. Suqin hurriedly opened the window to check the situation outside, and when she saw that no one came, she closed the window again.

Suqin hurried to Shen Yining's side. Seeing the young lady so sad, Suqin couldn't help but sigh. She reached out to wipe the tears from Shen Yining's face and comforted Shen Yining softly.

Shen Yining looked at Suqin: "Suqin, do you know that the perfumed powder father sent is poisonous?" Suqin hurriedly shook her head: "I don't know, the master only said that it would help you regain your favor, so I gave it to you. I am also worried about you, young lady!"

Shen Yining then asked, "I brought you into the palace when that happened. Did you know that Daddy had done something?" Suqin was stunned and quickly lowered her head, not daring to look at Shen Yining. "I am doing this for the young lady's good. I also think that the young lady should not continue to be entangled with Lord Qin."

Shen Yining was not surprised at all: "Yes, you are doing this for my own good. You are all doing this for my own good. But you ignored my wish not to enter the palace, ruined my reputation, and sent me into the palace. You are really doing this for my own good!"
