Chapter 1678 I Am the World (13)

Royal study room.

Lingyi told Shi Sheng what she had recently found out. After telling her, she was shocked. She didn't expect that King Yu had so many little tricks secretly.

"She has visited almost all the neutral ministers, but I can't know what she said to them specifically. There is no change in King Yu's fiefdom, but I heard that not long ago, a large number of caravans set out from the fiefdom. King Yu The fiefdom is not a trade route, I felt something was wrong, so I had someone check it out."

"However, I did not find any trace of those caravans. They mysteriously disappeared after entering the Huainan area. Your Majesty, do you think those caravans were disguised as soldiers?"

"It's almost like ten." Shi Sheng leaned on the dragon chair and tapped his chin with his fingertips, "Who is in charge of the Huainan area?"

"Mo Ping, King of Huainan."

The King of Huainan is a king with a different surname. He lived and died together with the late emperor and made great achievements. After accumulating such achievements, he was named King of Huainan and took charge of the Huainan region.

Shi Sheng raised his eyebrows slightly, "I remember that King Yu's righteous gentleman also has the last name Mo, right?"

"I checked and found that his background is very clean and has nothing to do with the King of Huainan. It should be just a coincidence." Ling Yi answered quickly, "And Mo Ping has no heirs."

"There are not so many coincidences in this world." Shi Sheng's voice was faint, and the candlelight in the hall was swaying. The light flickered, and the light reflected on her face, making her face look gloomy for no reason. "The caravan disappeared inexplicably in the Huainan area. We can only It proves that someone is helping them. The person in charge of the Huainan area is named Mo, and it happens that King Yu’s Zhengjun is also named Mo.”

Lingyi heard what Shi Sheng was trying to express, "Your Majesty... do you suspect that Mo Ping from the Huainan area is colluding with King Yu?"

"Mo Ping...hasn't the military power in his hand been taken away by Dai Xu?"

"Yes, the King of Huainan holds all the military power in Huainan, but compared with Dai Xu's, it is nothing compared to the big one, and is not worth mentioning at all."

Every emperor is taboo about having great achievements that shake the master.

The late emperor was no exception, so when King Huainan was in high spirits, the late emperor took back the military power held by King Huainan little by little, made him a king with a different surname, and was driven to Huainan, where he was never reused again.

"If King Yu really and King Huainan...did King Yu choose the wrong person?"

The King of Huainan may be of some use in the Huainan area, but what use can he be in the capital?

"Do you think she would be willing to be deprived of her military power and rush to become an idle prince??" Shi Sheng showed a strange smile, "I bet you that the King of Huainan definitely has an unexpected trump card."

"Your Majesty..." Ling Yi became more and more frightened. According to what His Majesty said, they are the weakest.

"Maybe it's not me that Dai Xu is afraid of." Shi Sheng touched his chin and guessed, what if it was King Huainan that she was afraid of?

If Dai Xu strikes first, King Huainan will definitely not be able to sit still once the Queen dies, and the two sides will definitely fight. Dai Xu is definitely not sure who will win. That makes people a little curious about what magic weapon King Huainan holds, so Dai Xu I'm so scared.

The queen is different when she is still standing. She is like a balance instrument, and neither party dares to move easily.

So who was the person who poisoned the original owner?

It's a bit hard to guess...

How about killing them together.

Anyway, they want to kill themselves to grab the throne.

It's better to strike first! !

Of course, the above content is all Shi Sheng's own speculation. The real reason remains to be studied.

But according to Shi Sheng's every guess, which is 199% correct, there probably won't be any cat cakes this time.

Lingyi saw His Majesty smiling sinisterly and evilly, and immediately shuddered. What else is His Majesty planning?

Shi Sheng was thinking about how to kill these people when there was a sudden noise outside.

Ling Yi immediately went out of the hall to check, and came back after a while, saying hurriedly: "Your Majesty, there are assassins."

"It's not the first time I've met an assassin, so why are you so anxious?" After coming back from the imperial mausoleum, haven't you been assassinated for a long time? calm!

If she hadn't bribed those killer organizations and those people came to go through the motions and tell her who wanted to assassinate her, she didn't know what it would be like to be tortured by these assassins.

"The assassin is going to Master Shen Bei..."

Where is my sword! !

Before Ling Yi finished speaking, there was no trace of His Highness in front of her. She twitched her lips and hurriedly chased him out.

The imperial study room was a bit far away from the palace. Shi Sheng arrived with an iron sword. The imperial guards had already forced the assassin to approach Shen Bei's room. The imperial guards did not dare to enter rashly for fear that the assassin would hurt his majesty's new favorite.

Everyone knows this man, and His Majesty likes him very much.

"Where are the people?" Shi Sheng looked at the guards with a gloomy face.

The Imperial Guard pointed at the closed room, not daring to breathe.

Shi Sheng looked at the door and walked there calmly. As soon as she stepped on the steps, the door opened with a creak.

The assassin in night clothes came out holding Shen Bei hostage. The dagger was pressed against Shen Bei's aorta, and it only took a little force to pierce the fair skin.

Shi Sheng narrowed her eyes, and dangerous aura silently gathered around her.

"Stay back!!" The assassin shouted at them, "Stay back, or I will kill him."

Shi Sheng took back his feet on the steps and looked straight at Shen Bei, not even giving the assassin a look.

Shen Bei seemed frightened, his eyes full of panic. If the assassin hadn't surrounded him, he would have slipped to the ground.

Shi Sheng licked the corners of his lips and waved the guards to get out of the way.

"Exit, hurry up!!" the assassin continued to yell.

All the Imperial Guards retreated from the courtyard, leaving only Shi Sheng and Ling Yi who arrived behind.

The assassin dragged Shen Bei towards the wall of the courtyard, watching Shi Sheng and Ling Yi warily. When he was about to approach the wall, he pushed Shen Bei toward Shi Sheng and jumped onto the wall.

Shi Sheng stepped forward to catch Shen Bei. Shen Bei's body became weak and he could hardly stand. Naturally, he couldn't leave Shi Sheng's arms and could only be held by her.

At this moment, a strange phenomenon suddenly occurred. Countless arrows were shot from the side, forming a large rain of arrows. The assassin resisted for a moment and was hit by the arrows and fell down.

Shen Bei quietly looked up at the woman holding him. Her eyes seemed to be reflecting the rain of arrows in the sky, her expression was cold and ruthless, and she exuded an icy aura.

The hand on Shen Bei's waist suddenly tightened, and he moved closer to her. The next second, he felt a sense of pressure, "Is it fun?"

"what? What?"

As soon as Shen Bei raised his head, he met a pair of eyes that looked like a smile but not a smile. There was no emotion or anger in her tone, and she seemed to be asking calmly.

But there was a bit of chill in his heart.

Shi Sheng suppressed the emotions in her eyes, picked Shen Bei up and carried her into the room. Ling Yi and the imperial guards would handle the rest, so she was not needed.

Shen Bei's heartbeat accelerated, and he felt like his own body was beating with fear in front of her.

However, she said nothing, put him back on the bed, and even gently took off his shoes and covered him with the quilt.
