Chapter 83 The golden cicada escapes from its shell
Youzhou Military Camp
Shangguan Yunting couldn't wait to open the letter from Shen Rou, and was stunned when he saw just a few scribbled words on the paper.
The letter contained the words "treat others with sincerity", with the rest being blank. He suddenly felt that Shen Rou knew his identity and was waiting for him to confess it to her. He had originally wanted to explain it to her in person, but those bastards from Northern Yan were restless every day, and a war between the two countries was a matter of time.
After thinking for a moment, I decided to confess to her in the letter, otherwise I would not even reply a few words next time.
Holding the pen, he spoke with sincere and touching emotion, and finally carefully revealed that he was Prince Mu Shangguan Yunting, the emperor's younger brother and the empress dowager's son.
At the end, he thoughtfully drew a picture of himself carrying a thorny stick to apologize, with two tears of shame falling, begging for her forgiveness.
After writing it, I read it several times and folded it up only after I felt that there was no problem.
He wrote another letter to the emperor, telling him that Shen Rou was the girl who found the medicine, his savior, and the girl he loved. He asked the emperor to protect her. He also told the emperor about Shen Rou's situation and asked the emperor to make a decision for her.
"Han Lin..."
"Master, what are your orders?"
"Quickly pass these two letters to the Emperor and Xiaorou."
"I obey my orders."
At this time, Shangguan Rui walked in and showed a look of disgust when he saw the handwriting on the table. "Ninth Uncle, who wrote this? Is it a code? The handwriting is so ugly, even worse than that of an enlightened child."
Shangguan Yunting snatched it directly from Shangguan Rui's hand and said, "Don't worry about it. You don't need to check whether the handwriting is good or not."
Shangguan Rui suddenly realized, "Could this be a letter from Miss Shen? The handwriting is really not good enough. It's not even as good as Xiaoxue's, who just started learning."
"Xiaoxue wrote well, let Xiaoxue write back to you, don't bother me."
"Ninth Uncle... Uncle..."
"Where are you calling my soul? Why are you coming to my tent at this hour instead of the training ground?"
"Can't my nephew miss you?"
"Stop talking nonsense. What's the matter? Now go do what you need to do."
Shangguan Rui scratched his head and asked embarrassedly: "Ninth Uncle, where is Miss Shen now? Has she returned to Yunzhou?"
"You want to ask about Xiaoxue, right?"
"It's just...it's just that Xiaoxue hasn't replied to my letter for a while. Could it be that you ordered Manager Sun not to send me a letter?"
"Is your Ninth Uncle such a despicable person?"
Shangguan Rui muttered quietly, "When you're mean, you're not even human. You're training yourself to death every day. If you keep training, your skin will peel off."
"You little brat, do you think your uncle is deaf?"
"You can hear it even when it's so quiet. You have really good ears."
"Where's Han Lin? Why did he leave?"
"Han Lin is out for something. Please go back to the training ground and wait for him to come back so I can ask him about the situation in Yunzhou.
"If I don't find out, I won't be able to train with peace of mind when I return."
"Look at your potential."
"Ninth Uncle, you are quite capable. You eagerly await Miss Shen's reply every day, treating her few words like a treasure."
"You little brat, Captain Cheng is so good to you, yet you still have the energy to argue with me."
"Ninth Uncle, you shouldn't take revenge on someone else."
"Am I seeking revenge? I'm doing this for your own good. It takes a thousand days to raise an army, but only a moment to deploy it. Soon it will be time for you to sharpen your sword and go into battle."
Shangguan Rui muttered quietly, "You say it's good for me, but it's just a personal vendetta. I'm exhausted as a dog, but you make it sound so easy."
"You can speak louder, I can't hear you."
Shangguan Rui chuckled a few times, "I said the Ninth Prince is handsome and a role model for us."
"You've said so much, but only these two sentences are true."
Shangguan Rui rolled his eyes. "I just said it casually, and you took it seriously."
At this time, Han Lin walked in and said, "Master, General Qu wants you to go to the military tent to discuss important matters."
Shangguan Yunting put Shen Rou's "love letter" under the pillow and walked out.
Shangguan Rui looked at Han Lin and asked, "Han Lin, what's the situation in Yunzhou?"
"Ye Qing and the others sent word that everything is fine."
"Where's Xiaoxue?"
"Xiaoxue now practices martial arts with Ye Qing in the morning and evening, takes classes with Master Yang in the middle of the day, and will study medicine with Doctor Ye from now on. She is very busy every day."
"Who is Doctor Ye? Is he reliable?"
"My Lord, Doctor Ye is Ye Gucheng, the younger brother of Grand Tutor Ye and a renowned doctor in the capital."
"Why did Xiaoxue suddenly want to study medicine? I've never heard her mention it before."
"Doctor Ye, when he went to see Master Yang, he found Xiaoxue to be extremely intelligent and had a very quick understanding of herbs, so he asked her if she wanted to learn medicine, and she agreed immediately."
"This girl, studying medicine is a good thing, but she didn't even tell me."
Shangguan Rui took out a stack of letters from his pocket and handed them to Han Lin, "Tell someone to pass them to Xiaoxue."
"Yes."
Han Lin looked at the stack of letters and thought to himself, you are so tired from training every day, how can you still write a letter a day? Do you have so much to say?
Capital
Shen Rou had been waiting for news from Liu Qi, and after waiting for seven or eight days, she finally got the news.
Arriving at the pharmacy, Wang Jian quickly handed her the news, "Miss Shen, this is the news from Liu Qi and the others."
Shen Rou quickly opened it and took a closer look. She immediately smiled and muttered to herself, "Xue Zhong, if this is true, you can expect your family to be confiscated and your entire clan to be exterminated!"
"Miss Shen, what did they find out that makes you so happy?"
"Xue Fan is not dead and has hidden himself in Shoushan."
"If this is true, then who was the man who committed suicide in prison out of fear of punishment?"
"Get ready. Take a few people to dig up Xue Fan's grave tonight. We'll know for sure."
"Will the body decay after being dead for so many days? It will be hard to tell what it was originally like."
"It would take at least half a month for it to start rotting after being sealed in the coffin. It's only been seven or eight days now, so we can definitely see what it was like back then."
"Miss Shen, isn't it a bit inappropriate to dig up someone's ancestral grave?"
Shen Rou said confidently, "It's okay! This isn't our ancestral grave, it's a new one. We're giving the deceased the truth. After all, he died in someone else's place, and his name is someone else's. He had no control over his own actions when he was alive, so he definitely wants to be respected after his death. He can't thank us enough."
The two guards looked at Shen Rou and immediately thought that she was a real talent as she could find such a reasonable reason to dig a grave.
"Only by opening the coffin and conducting an autopsy can we confirm whether the deceased is Xue Fan. Only after we are sure can we dare to take action. After all, Xue Zhong is not an ordinary person. If he reports it to the emperor and orders an investigation, we will have nowhere to hide."
"We must proceed with caution to ensure that nothing goes wrong."
"Miss Shen is absolutely right."
"You go and arrange the people. I'll go back to the inn to rest. See you at the city gate tonight."
They were surprised and asked, "Aren't you afraid of going to such a gloomy place as a girl?"
"What's there to be afraid of? Don't I still have you guys? Besides, I'm upright and honest, so why should I be afraid of the dead?"
Wang Jian looked at Shen Rou with admiration, "Among the girls I know, only Miss Shen has the greatest courage. I admire her."
Shen Rou thought to herself, "I deal with corpses frequently in modern times. I can even sleep for a whole night with the corpse of a companion next to me without having a nightmare."
"Do you know many girls?"
"We grew up in a training camp. Although there were girls, there was no distinction between boys and girls in the camp. I was chosen to be a guard for my master at the age of thirteen. Later, I went to the military camp. I rarely saw girls, and the girl I was most familiar with was you."
"I see."
Shen Rou smiled and said, "But don't worry, you will meet more girls in the future, and you will get married and have children."
"As a guard, I have to be prepared in advance not to marry or have children for the rest of my life."
"This is too cruel. Everyone has the right to get married. Guards are also flesh and blood people with emotions. Why can't they get married?"
"The biggest threat is when guards marry and have children."
"I'm really speechless."
Shen Rou paused for a moment and said, "Is there anyone guarding the rich man's ancestral tomb? Send someone to check it out to avoid alerting the enemy."
"Yes."
"Send a message to Liu Qi and ask them to wait there for my news."
"Yes."
At night, Shen Rou quietly came to the city gate in the dark, where Wang Jian was waiting.
"Miss Shen, you are here."
"Why are you alone?"
"The other two are outside the city."
"With Flying Tiger Claws?"
"Bring it."
"Is there anyone guarding the Xue family's ancestral tomb?"
"There was an old man."
"Wang Jian, go to the pharmacy and get some knockout drugs to make the old man faint."
"Already prepared."
They used the force of the Flying Tiger Claw to climb directly onto the city wall, and then slowly descended by pulling the rope.
After leaving the city, Su Xin was waiting there with another person, and they also had shovels.
"Miss Shen is here."
"Walk."
Shen Rou led a few people on horseback, and under the moonlight, they arrived at the Xue family's ancestral tomb. This ancestral tomb was backed by a mountain and faced a vast expanse of open land, making it a truly auspicious place for feng shui.
"Wang Jian went to knock the old man unconscious."
"Yes."
In ancient times, the tombs of wealthy families were very luxurious. They believed deeply in feng shui and thought that the location and maintenance of ancestral tombs directly affected the family's fortune and the fate of future generations.
The tombs of the other ancestors of the Xue family were all renovated very luxuriously. Although Xue Fan was buried hastily, his tomb was also renovated very luxuriously to conceal his whereabouts.
This ancestral graveyard was filled with a gloomy atmosphere that made people shudder, but they were not afraid or panicked at all.
When we arrived at Xue Fan's grave, we found a door on the side of the grave that could be entered for repairs, but his grave was sealed shut, which showed that Xue Zhong had something to hide.
They pried open the tomb and used a tinder to light it up. "Miss Shen, let's go in and check the situation first."
"it is good."
Several people went in to make sure it was safe before letting Shen Rou in. When she went in, the coffin was already open and a male corpse was lying inside. There was no gold, silver or treasure in the coffin.
Wang Jian complained: "Xue Zhong is so stingy that he didn't even put a copper coin in the coffin. This is definitely not Xue Fan."
Shen Rou thought that the Xue family's warehouse had been emptied by her, and Xue Zhong would definitely not be willing to bury the remaining silver with them.
Shen Rou took out rubber gloves from the space, put them on, and climbed up directly. She reached out and pulled the face of the deceased, and a layer of human skin mask appeared instantly. Several people were stunned when they saw Shen Rou's operation.
Shen Rou muttered, "This is quite a craftsmanship, it's so real. No wonder the Ministry of Justice and the ministers didn't realize he was wearing a human skin mask."
"We've only heard that some people can make human skin masks that look real, but we didn't expect them to be so realistic. If it weren't for you, no one would have guessed that the person lying here was Xue Fan's double."
"Wang Jian, go back now and find a way to notify Prime Minister Huo to bring people over. We will wait here for them to arrive. Prime Minister Huo will know that this is Xue Fan's substitute, so he will naturally make a big deal out of it."
"Yes."
