Shen Yueyu paused slightly when she heard this. At this moment, she had already vaguely guessed the answer in her heart.

"Is it Si Huaijing?" Shen Yueyu asked.

During this period, she also saw clearly that the relationship between Si Huaijing and Si Yelin was only friendly on the surface, but in fact they were at odds with each other and were scheming against each other.

After Si Yelin was deposed from the position of Crown Prince, Si Huaijing did gain a lot of benefits from it.

Sometimes when we can't catch the murderer, we might find the answer by looking at the person who benefits the most from it.

"You are very smart." Si Yelin looked at Shen Yueyu with some surprise, and did not deny the answer.

"But we can't find any evidence against him. We only know that he did it." Si Yelin said, adding:

"His technique is very clever."

"I tried very hard but couldn't find any evidence against him. He knew this, so he dared to do this."

Hearing this, Shen Yueyu thought of Si Huaijing's smiling and gentle face. Who would have thought that such a gentle and noble person on the surface had such unpredictable thoughts inside.

"I heard that you chose him as your beastly husband." Si Yelin said this, trying his best to control his expression and not let the jealousy on his face show.

"With people like this lurking around you, you have to be more careful."

Shen Yueyu thought about what methods Si Yelin and the Queen used. They had been investigating for such a long time but could not find any evidence against Si Huaijing. This showed how sophisticated his methods were.

"I understand." Shen Yueyu nodded.

"You..." Si Yelin looked at Shen Yueyu, hesitant to speak.

"Do you really have to go find Jiang Zeye?"

Shen Yueyu looked at the sky which was gradually getting darker: "Well, we must go."

The scene of Lu Kewu's death kept replaying in her mind, and she didn't want to see such a tragedy happen again.

Moreover, Jiang Zeye treated her sincerely, so she wanted to protect him.

Si Yelin's fingers slowly tightened. He remembered how cold and ruthless Shen Yueyu's attitude towards him was, but she was willing to sacrifice herself to save other male orcs.

Some dark thoughts couldn't help but pop up in his mind, but he suppressed them with reason.

No one spoke after that. Shen Yueyu ate something simple and found that it was already dark.

But Si Huaijing hasn't come back yet.

"I should go." Shen Yueyu said softly.

Si Yelin raised his eyes to look at her: "It's very dangerous for you to go alone."

"And you don't even know where Jiang Zeye is."

"Who said my sister is alone!" Xu Yanzhuo immediately said: "I will protect my sister!"

Shen Yueyu touched Xu Yanzhuo's head, and a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes.

She knew that this trip was very dangerous, so she didn't want Xu Yanzhuo to take the risk for her.

Si Yelin frowned and glanced at Xu Yanzhuo, then shook his head slightly: "I'm still worried."

“Besides, you can’t find their exact location.”

"I can find it." Shen Yueyu said confidently.

She can spend a certain amount of points to let the system locate Jiang Zeye's position.

"..." Si Yelin slowly clenched his fist: "Since you insist on doing this, then I will have someone send you to find Si Huaijing."

Although Si Huaijing is a deep-minded person, there is basically nothing he cannot accomplish if he wants to do it.

But whether he is willing to help sincerely is a big question.

"Heh..." Shen Yueyu chuckled when he heard this:

"Do you think Si Huaijing will really help me save Jiang Zeye?"

If she was with Si Huaijing, the fox might really take Jiang Zeye's life.

That is the biggest threat to her right now.

Si Yelin was silent for a moment after hearing this, and then sighed:

"Then I'll have two more A-rank males protect you."

After saying this, Si Yelin saw Shen Yueyu frowning, guessing that she wanted to refute him, so he said: "I do this not just for my own selfish desires."

"You are an extremely rare female. The Empire must ensure your safety."

"So, this is the biggest concession I can make."

Seeing that his attitude did not allow for rebuttal, Shen Yueyu could only nod lightly: "Okay."

"But before that..." Shen Yueyu said, his eyes fell on Lu Bian in his arms:

"I want you to help me take care of him. Don't let him get hurt, and don't abandon him."

Si Yelin's gaze fell on Lu Bian. He knew how important this little wolf was to Shen Yueyu, so he nodded in agreement.

"Okay, I'll make sure someone treats him well."

After a simple treatment, Shen Yueyu took Xu Yanzhuo to the combat zone without telling Lu Bian.

This is an extremely vast forest. The two A-level males who escorted her followed her all the way. Although they provided transportation and the journey was very convenient, Shen Yueyu did not plan to take these two males with her.

Getting closer and closer to Jiang Zeye's location.

Shen Yueyu glanced at the male driver in front, only to find that he had stopped the car.

"What's wrong?" Shen Yueyu asked.

"Someone is targeting us." The male orc in charge of driving had a hint of nervousness in his voice.

Shen Yueyu followed his gaze and saw a group of people on the hillside in the distance, about dozens of people.

Some of the males aimed their offensive weapons at this side, seemingly ready to attack at any time.

Because the distance was too far, Shen Yueyu couldn't see their faces clearly, and could only tell from their clothes that they were from Xinglan Country.

"Hurry up and take out the flag." The male next to the car urged.

The male in the driver's seat immediately took out the flag representing the identity of the Xinglan Kingdom. After seeing the flag for a moment, the other side removed the sight and seemed to be ready to let it go.

The orcs in front finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the vehicle continued to move forward.

Shen Yueyu looked at the team on the top of the mountain and found that Si Huaijing should not be there because his temperament was too special and he was too easy to recognize.

As they got closer to their destination, Shen Yueyu glanced at the little parrot on his arm and said in a cold voice:

"parking."

"What's wrong, sir?" The male driver looked puzzled. "Have you found the exact location of that person?"

"No." Shen Yueyu shook his head: "Let me get off the car, I need to go to the bathroom."

"This..." The two male orcs looked embarrassed.

"What's wrong?" Shen Yueyu's face was full of anger: "Si Yelin asked you to protect me, but he didn't ask you to monitor me."

The two males looked conflicted.

"I don't know what you're worried about." Shen Yueyu folded her arms: "I'm just a weak female, I still need your protection, I can't leave alone."

The two males thought the same. After all, females have no attack power. Even if Shen Yueyu wanted to leave, she wouldn't be able to go far. They could just find her later.

"Okay, sir, we will wait for you here." The two orcs had no choice but to compromise.

Shen Yueyu glanced at them, turned around and was about to get out of the car and leave.

"Wait, sir." One of the male orcs looked at Xu Yanzhuo suspiciously: "Why does he want to go with us?"

"He's my beastly husband, shouldn't he go with us?"

Shen Yueyu's voice was icy cold, and he exuded a noble and unquestionable aura:

"As for you..."

Before she could finish her words, she snorted coldly, and the two orcs couldn't help but show shame on their faces.

They knew very well that now even the SS-level males of Xinglan Country were at the disposal of this adult, so it was normal for her to look down on them.

So they watched Shen Yueyu leaving, and did not dare to stop him, or even dare to look over there.

"Sister, are you doing this to get rid of them?" Xu Yanzhuo tilted his head on Shen Yueyu's shoulder.

"Yeah." Shen Yueyu nodded: "They are protecting me, but there is no guarantee that they won't hurt Jiang Zeye."

They are Si Yelin's people, and they only truly obey Si Yelin's orders, but Si Yelin has his own stance.

Therefore, Shen Yueyu would not leave any future troubles and gamble on that possibility.
