After a long while, she finally said quietly, "Those bandits are vicious and cunning. To prevent the Duke of Huguo from repeating the mistakes of the Marquis of Xuanping, it is better to have more people to assist him. Prime Minister Qin..."

Emperor Chengde's eyebrows jumped. What did the Queen Mother ask Qin Xu to do?

Are we going to let him, a powerless prime minister, go with us to suppress the bandits?

That's outrageous.

Qin Xu: "I am here."

"Pass on my imperial decree, ordering Qin Zi'an to accompany the Duke of Protector of the Country to suppress the bandits. Remember, he is only assisting and must not give random orders." said the Queen Mother.

This is undoubtedly a good opportunity for the descendants of the Qin family to make achievements.

The eldest son studied literature, and the second son, Qin Zi'an, chose to be a military general, otherwise he would have to go to the battlefield to achieve success. But not only Qin Xu might not be willing to do so, but her younger sister, Madam Qin, was the first one who refused to do so. If the Qin family wanted to continue to prosper, future generations must have real achievements.

Qianfeng Mountain is an opportunity.

Qin Xu's face lit up with joy, and he thanked her sincerely: "Thank you, Queen Mother, for your grace."

Queen Mother Qin curled her lips, feeling a little disgusted with her nephew.

It is true that Qin Xu is capable, but he is too selfish, blindly arrogant and does not know how to restrain himself.

But the Qin family and she share the same fate.

Can't collapse!

Emperor Chengde's eyes dimmed, but in the end he did not say anything against it.

If he spoke out against Qin Zian's following at this time, then the Queen Mother would be able to replace the Duke of Protectorate with a clear conscience the next moment.

He and the Queen Mother disliked each other, but they also maintained a delicate balance in the court.

"Also, do your best to capture Shen Linzhou. Even if he escapes to the ends of the earth, I will see him alive or dead." Emperor Chengde then issued another decree, handing the matter over to Cheng Hong, the commander of the Imperial Guards.

Shen Linzhou had caused such a big mess, how could Emperor Chengde let him go?

So, at midnight the next day, Cheng Hong caught Shen Linzhou who had sneaked back to the mansion.

As soon as Shen Linzhou knocked on the door, he was taken down by guards who suddenly rushed out.

He was stunned for a moment and then began to struggle hard.

"You are so brave, do you know who I am? Let me go."

Cheng Hong walked out from the shadows, his features handsome and his eyes frightening: "Deputy General Shen, you really made it hard for me to find you."

Shen Linzhou had his hands handcuffed behind his back. When he heard the voice, he turned his head to look.

Seeing that it was Cheng Hong, he frowned slightly and said, "Commander Cheng, what do you mean?"

Cheng Hong glanced at him with disdain, and said, "In compliance with the Emperor's order, arrest the deserter Shen Linzhou and bring him to justice."

When Shen Linzhou heard this, his face suddenly changed. He looked at Cheng Hong in disbelief and shouted, "What deserter? Don't talk nonsense."

Or is it the Emperor's order?

What’s going on? Why did the emperor want to arrest him?

Shen Linzhou's uneasiness gradually grew. He escaped from Qianfeng Mountain with the help of Marquis Xuanping, and then returned to Beijing to report to the emperor to send troops for support. However, in this way, not only would he not get any credit for following Marquis Xuanping to suppress the bandits this time, he might even be reprimanded.

I was very nervous all the way back. If I could come up with a plan to suppress the bandits before meeting the emperor, maybe I could make up for my mistake.

However, no.

So I thought about going back home to discuss with everyone and see how to deal with it.

He arrived in the capital during the day, but he didn't want to attract attention, so he went back quietly in the middle of the night.

Who would have thought that Cheng Hong would bring people to guard outside the Shen Mansion.

Moreover, he had just returned to Beijing, so how did the emperor know that he had escaped from Qianfeng Mountain?

Could it be that the news was released by the bandits in Qianfeng Mountain?

But how could they escape among the hundreds of people who were captured?
