Half a month has passed since Pan Ye and Zhao Chengyun disappeared.

Shen Jinyao and others don't have much time left to stay in the Qiang tribe.

During this period, Xiang Hongxuan and others were not only looking for someone, but also wanted to see the person alive or dead.

They are still doing their last thing in the Qiang tribe.

That is to help Murong Wencheng debate with the scholars.

Anyone who has experienced the change of dynasties in history or the change of superiors must know that this is the final stage of the war.

Originally before coming to the Qiang tribe.

The three huge rocks in front of Murong Wencheng are the ambitious Third Prince, the powerful Princess, and the eldest prince who is already in power.

Unexpectedly, because of the death of the eldest prince, all the problems were solved one by one.

The rest are other royal relatives.

These clan members, represented by the Fifth Prince, raised various doubts and demands to Murong Wencheng.

Although Murong Wencheng is not a person of bad temper, he is a very principled person.

Plus the people from Kyushu standing behind her.

The royal family members are like 'grasshoppers in autumn' - they can't jump for more than a few days.

Murong Wencheng used both kindness and force, and took advantage of Xiang Hongxuan and others to take advantage of the opportunity to pressure the royal relatives. After a few days, the royal relatives became tired.

After all, the people were very panicked.

The coronation ceremony is imperative.

In addition, Xiang Hongxuan and Murong Wencheng took out the agreement they had signed before.

The Qiang ministers were naturally unwilling.

There were even some radical people who threatened not to let Xiang Hongxuan and others leave the Qiang tribe alive.

The emotions of the people were ignited, and the good reviews that Murong Wencheng had accumulated with great difficulty during this period of time gradually began to be questioned.

The next day, the news spread like wildfire that the second prince had signed a traitorous agreement with the general of Kyushu in order to become king.

Xiang Hongxuan, Shen Jinyao and others were at a loss as to what to do in response to public opinion.

They need Murong Wencheng's statement.

Fortunately, Murong Wencheng only appears to have a good temper.

Murong Wencheng asked a scholar to write a notice at the palace gate.

The announcement focused on the benefits that the Qiang people could gain from cooperating with the Jiuzhou Kingdom.

At the end of the announcement, it was specifically mentioned that the Qiang people now want to develop agriculture, animal husbandry, commerce, academies, etc.

It also stated that taxes would be halved this year and that militia would no longer be recruited.

In recent years, due to the internal strife within the Qiang royal family and the constant wars launched against other countries, the Qiang people have really been living in dire straits.

Jinmao City is the most prosperous of all cities.

That's simply because this is the royal family's last face.

How could the people care who would be king?

As long as they can have enough food and clothing and earn some money, it is good.

As soon as the announcement was made, the voices targeting the second prince disappeared.

The second thing Murong Wencheng did was to kill the chicken to scare the monkey.

No one in the Qiang royal family is clean.

To catch a thief, one must first catch the leader. The Fifth Prince is the loudest among the clan members.

So Murong Wencheng accused the fifth prince of embezzling money from the national treasury and tampering with the food and fodder, just like the eldest prince and princess.

The fifth prince was confined to his house for a year.

Obviously, not locking up the Fifth Prince was already a sign of leniency on Murong Wencheng's part.

Murong Wencheng knew that when the water is too clear, there will be no fish.

The Qiang people are in need of manpower everywhere now, and the royal family is in a situation of a lack of young and old talents, with good and bad people mixed together. It is not the time to deal with these people yet.

After these events, no one questioned the agreement between Murong Wencheng and Jiuzhou Kingdom anymore.

Seeing that Murong Wencheng handled the situation well, Xiang Hongxuan decided to prepare for his departure.

That day Shen Jinyao found Xiang Hongxuan.

"General Xiang, are we really not going to look for Pan Ye and the Second Prince anymore?"

Xiang Hongxuan nodded.

"We have to go back."

Shen Jinyao was a little hesitant.

Xiang Hongxuan saw that she was hesitant to speak.

He relaxed his tone and asked, "What's wrong?"

Shen Jinyao smiled. She had been getting along well with Xiang Hongxuan these days. After thinking about it, she decided to express her inner thoughts.

"General Xiang, do you remember what the Third Prince promised me before we set out?"

Xiang Hongxuan nodded, which naturally implied that the Shen family could return to the court.

"I want double security."

"What do you mean?"

"As you know, my father was reported for having contact with the Qiang people, and there was also a list of names."

It was this crime that led to the Shen family being exiled thousands of miles away.

Originally, she had found out through her father that the second prince was responsible for this matter.

But there is no news about the second prince at the moment, and if he is dead, there will be no evidence.

Now the third prince is likely to seize the throne, but the mountain of the emperor has not been removed yet.

Shen Jinyao was afraid that the third prince would not be able to reverse the case for the Shen family.

So, she had to get evidence from the Qiang tribe.

Prove that Shen Maoshan is innocent.

If there is no evidence, she will ask Murong Wencheng to write a statement and force him to do it.

She was not afraid that Xiang Hongxuan would know. She told Xiang Hongxuan just to drag him into the water.

In short, if you cheat, cheat together.

The Qiang people have already reached a cooperation with the Jiuzhou Kingdom, so who cares whether it is true or not?

Xiang Hongxuan naturally thought of what Shen Jinyao thought of.

As for why she found it, it was probably because she wanted him to take her to find Murong Wencheng.

"If the general is willing to help me, why not take me to see the king?"

The day before yesterday, Murong Wencheng attended the coronation ceremony.

Since then, Shen Jinyao has not seen him.

Xiang Hongxuan naturally agreed. If the Shen family could return to the court, wouldn't that mean he and she...

Will it be possible again?

"General, if you have something important to do, why don't you leave first and return to report after I'm done with this."

The implication was that he had to cover up for her in front of the Third Prince when he returned.

Xiang Hongxuan stopped and said, "I'm not in a hurry. I'll leave after you finish your work."

If Shen Jinyao was left behind...

He thought of the look Murong Wencheng gave Shen Jinyao...

He must take Shen Jinyao away.

By now he has understood his own feelings, but...

"General Xiang, we're here."

A look of loneliness flashed across his eyes. Shen Jinyao did not have any filial affection for him.

"kindness."

Xiang Hongxuan has been going in and out of the Qiang royal family more frequently recently. Murong Wencheng even gave him a token, so he doesn't need to submit any memorials when he goes to the royal family.

When Murong Wencheng heard that Shen Jinyao and Xiang Hongxuan had come together, he raised his head from the pile of memorials.

"come in."

Although he was sitting upright, his hands never stopped moving, constantly adjusting his clothes.

"To the King."

Xiang Hongxuan and Shen Jinyao saluted Murong Wencheng.

The two of them behaved very properly.

"Get up."

Shen Jinyao didn't think much about anything else. After all, with so many people watching, if Murong Wencheng still spoke to them as before, Murong Wencheng would definitely not be able to sit in this seat.

"What brings you two here today?"

Xiang Hongxuan and Shen Jinyao smiled but didn't say anything.

Murong Wencheng said, "Ahem, I'm feeling a bit tired. Why don't you two accompany me to sit outside?"

"Yes."

Shen Jinyao couldn't help feeling a little awkward. Why did she feel as awkward as watching someone she knew act?
