this day.

The news spread like wildfire.

There are similar rumors one after another.

The theme is very obvious: the emperor's brother, Prince Li of Daqing, colluded with foreign enemies and betrayed Qing's intelligence for his own personal gain, resulting in the death of hundreds of thousands of people in a city.

Goulan, restaurants, vegetable markets, streets and alleys...

In these places where a large number of civilians gathered, the news was like a spark, igniting the entire capital in an instant.

The whole city was boiling.

"What? Is the news true?"

"Oh my god, this is such a huge scandal. The Daqing royal family betrayed their own intelligence, causing hundreds of thousands of innocent ghosts to die."

"This matter... is it true? I remember that the court has already determined this matter, saying that it was the third-grade minister who did it? Why did he become Prince Li again?"

"Well, it goes without saying that he is being treated as a scapegoat."

"Think about it, how can a third-grade minister of the Ministry of Revenue know so much specific information about Daqing? But if it were a prince, it would make sense."

"No way, your Majesty is planning to protect his younger brother? For this reason, he would not hesitate to let hundreds of thousands of innocent people die unjustly?"

Voices of indignation arose one after another.

The ghosts' hearts were filled with coldness and coldness.

It was a city with hundreds of thousands of ghosts, but now they were fooled so easily, and they even tried to use scapegoats to divert the attention of the people and save the murderer.

Such behavior chills many people's hearts.

Today, the emperor of Daqing can give up pursuing responsibility for a younger brother.

Tomorrow, the emperor of Daqing would dare to abandon them because of other interests.

If things continue like this, who will dare to be a citizen of the Qing Kingdom?

However.

Where there are voices of indignation, there are voices of opposition.

"False, this matter has been determined. If you don't believe the court's decision, do you want to believe a rumor?"

"Yes, not to mention the authenticity of this rumor, the other party undoubtedly has ulterior motives for deliberately breaking out this kind of thing at this time. We cannot be led by the nose."

"Yes, I believe in the imperial court, I believe in Your Majesty, and I believe that the Qing Congress will give us a satisfactory reply, so as not to fall into the tricks of those with ulterior motives."

Opposition was equally loud.

It left many people shaken.

Don't know which side to believe.

at this time.

An inappropriate voice sounded.

"Go to the vegetable market quickly. Someone has posted evidence of Prince Li's crime over there."

As soon as these words came out.

A group of ghosts heard the wind and rose up.

Only a figure was left, taking off the evil ghost mask on his face.

He revealed a face with heavy dark circles under his eyes, looking like he was about to die soon.

It was none other than Shen Jian's number one tool man, Luo Quan.

Following Shen Jian's instructions, he began to post notices in the streets and alleys of the Qingguo capital.

And systematically guide the public to expose the truth step by step.

until……

Discover everything Prince Li has done.

Detonate a minefield.

Think of this.

Luo Quan wiped the non-existent cold sweat on his face.

This thunderstorm was a bit violent.

If it goes wrong, Qing's credibility will decline, it will become alienated from the people, and it may even trigger large-scale riots.

Yan Luo wants to use his own efforts to stir up trouble in the Qing Kingdom.

This does not mean that he wants to complete the hidden mission. This is clearly an attempt to subvert Qingguo's posture. He has some doubts. Is the hidden mission triggered by Yan Luo really related to Prince Li?

Why does he feel that this hidden mission is to ask Yama to overthrow the Qing Kingdom?

A boss is a boss, and he dares to take on such tasks.

If it were him, it would be too late to stay away.

Luo Quan's eyes were full of emotion.

Continue to the next restaurant and spread rumors.

This is the task not just for him, but for all players.

to this end.

Shen Jian also specially made these players become servants of the Night Travel God. Although they are no different from jailers in terms of status, the gold content of the two is not at the same level.

This can be regarded as the reward given by Shen Jian to the players.

Just waiting like this.

Shen Jian returned to prison.

Class A·Cell No. 1.

Her Royal Highness the Princess of Daqing looked at Shen Jian seriously.

"So this is your plan? To incite the people, let these people put pressure on the court, and then execute Prince Li?"

Shen Jian was noncommittal and just asked: "Is there any problem?"

"The problem is huge." Princess Miaolin shook her head, "If this method was effective, Prince Li would not have just been banned in the court. The core of this matter lies in His Majesty. As long as Your Majesty does not let go, any No one can execute him."

"I am familiar with history, and I naturally understand the terribleness of the people's hearts. In any country, your strategy has the possibility of success, but this is the Qing Kingdom, and His Majesty is a world-destroying ghost and god. If he is willing, he He can even destroy half of the Qing Kingdom by himself."

"Under such a world-destroying horror, the importance of people's hearts has been reduced exponentially. People's hearts...cannot hold His Majesty, do you understand?"

Speaking of which.

Princess Miaolin looked at Shen Jian with complicated eyes.

"Your Majesty is currently in seclusion. The prince is in charge of the country. No one has the power to touch him. You can do nothing but lock him in prison. He will be taken away in a few days. Once he is out of your control, , Prince Li is actually free."

Shen Jian nodded.

The meaning of the eldest princess is obvious.

His work was in vain. He could not execute Prince Li by relying on the support of the people. Instead, he would be resented and would be unable to move forward.

even.

Just leave the prison and the other person will be free.

To this.

The smile on Shen Jian's face grew stronger.

He did not pursue the subject.

Instead, he asked: "Your Highness, you have seen the evidence of Prince Li's crime, especially when it comes to betraying his own country's intelligence. No emperor can tolerate this kind of thing. Why did Emperor Qing insist on protecting him with his life? Is it just because of his brothers and sisters? Christine?"

This is the biggest doubt.

A sinner who betrayed his country's intelligence and caused the death of hundreds of thousands of people in a city, even if he was a member of the royal family and the emperor's brother, should be sent to the execution stand.

But Emperor Qing did the opposite.

There must be a big secret in this.

Princess Miaolin sighed: "I don't know, no one can understand his thoughts. Ever since he was promoted to the world-destroying level of ghosts and gods, Qingguo seems to have exhausted the last trace of national destiny, and the overall national power has dropped again and again. From prosperity to decline, I presented many improvement plans, but they all came to nothing."

"If this continues, the Qing Kingdom will be destroyed sooner or later in less than a hundred years."

Shen Jian was thoughtful.

It seems that the emperor of Qing Kingdom also has many secrets that can be explored deeply.

"Forget it, this matter has nothing to do with me, but you, prepare to take refuge. I have a secret guard under my command, which is full of people who cannot gain a foothold in Qingguo and need to "disappear" like you. It's just right for you to disappear now You can avoid the turmoil that follows.”

Princess Miaolin said seriously.

The moment the plan failed, Shen Jian was no longer able to gain a foothold in Qingguo.

Once he appears, he will be greeted with heavy revenge.

If he waits until His Majesty's retreat ends, the only thing waiting for Shen Jian is death.

Although she felt a little regretful, the only way to save Shen Jian at the moment was to turn from the bright side to the dark side.

Become a shadowy secret guard.

"Who said my plan failed?"

Shen Jian's eyes were strange.

His plan is different from what the other party thought.

The execution of Prince Li was only an incidental result.

What he really wanted was to win the hearts and minds of the people by beheading Prince Li against the imperial court against all odds.

The greater the resistance, the greater the public support he will be able to win.

Princess Miaolin was also stunned.

"How rare are you planning to lock him up here for the rest of his life?"

"of course not."

"Then it's over. An imperial edict has been issued. Unless you disobey, you won't be able to keep him. And I believe you know the consequences of disobeying."

"Don't even think about disobeying the imperial edict. We are the prince overseeing the country now. Things are far from disturbing His Majesty. But if you resist the edict, the imperial court will have the motive to kill you. If you fail, it will be disturbing to His Majesty." When the time comes, everything will stop."

Hear this.

Shen Jian did not respond.

He just stared at Princess Miaolin with burning eyes.

"You...what are you doing?"

Being stared at by such eyes, Her Royal Highness the Princess, who was used to being stared at, felt a little shy at this moment.

"Your Highness, are you worried about me now?"

Shen Jian's eyes moved.

[The arrival of the eldest princess of Daqing]

[Current status: Worry, worry, shy. 】

[Favorability: 61 (ambiguous)]

See this.

Shen Jian's eyes were strange.

As he spoke, he came closer.

Soon the default safe distance between men and women was invaded.

The distance between the two is less than ten centimeters.

This kind of distance is already an area that only close people can get close to.

Between breaths, you can already feel the other person's temperature.

Princess Miaolin's expression became a little strange, her eyes evaded, and she reached out to push Shen Jian away.

Shen Jian grabbed it.

Hold it with one delicate hand.

Feeling the slippery snow on his palms, the strange color in Shen Jian's eyes deepened.

But it was only less than three seconds.

Princess Miaolin broke away, her pretty face was slightly pink, and she rolled her eyes at Shen Jian: "You are very brave now. Even I, the eldest princess of the court, dare to be frivolous. Are you not afraid that I will punish you now?"

"I believe His Highness will not."

Shen Jian's eyes were deep and his expression was serious.

"Hmph, you should go and tell your little beauty these words. I am not her. She needs to rely on men."

The eldest princess's heart trembled slightly, but she still kept a straight face and spat.

Shen Jian was slightly startled.

problem occurs?

Her Royal Highness the Princess should be referring to the Vice Minister’s wife.

Thinking.

Princess Miaolin's expression has returned to normal, and she said coldly: "You'd better go and see her. It's because of her that you were involved in this case, but now, I feel worthless for her, and I feel worthless for you."

Hear this.

Shen Jian frowned slightly.

But he didn't say much, he just nodded and turned to leave.

Seeing Shen Jian's leaving figure, Princess Miaolin curled her lips and wrote "desire" on the paper. After thinking about it, she added "will do bad things" after it.

Cell No. 6.

Shen Jian opened the door.

A soft and delicate body pressed up against her.

In an instant, Shen Jian felt his meticulous consideration.

"what happened?"

Shen Jian was a little curious.

Although the wife of the assistant minister had some strange feelings for him due to his daily work, Shen Jian knew that they were all destroyed by love.

The waiter's wife's mentality towards him was based on this.

But after all, the other party loves her husband deeply, so his current behavior is a bit abnormal.

The waiter's wife said nothing.

He just hugged Shen Jian silently, as if looking for someone to rely on.

Until a long time.

Only then did he gradually loosen up.

It can be seen that her eyes are a little red and swollen, and she seems to have been crying for a long time.

The whole person looks more delicate, like an easily broken stamen.

Think about it.

Shen Jian used the ghost domain to learn about the situation from the mountain god.

"Mountain God, what happened in the Class A cell these days?"

"Nothing big happened, except for the fact that you captured an abyss-level ghost and sent it to the Class A cell. The person seemed to know the person in Cell No. 6, so they talked for a while, and then the woman in Cell No. 6 rushed out like crazy and rushed to the cell. The other party launched an attack."

Shen Jian was startled.

The abyss-level ghost caught a few days ago must be the seventh-grade Yuanwai Lang.

The other party did know the waiter's wife, and the relationship was between sister-in-law and brother-in-law.

"What did they say?"

"Swearing... The Yuanwailang pointed at the woman in Cell No. 6 and sneered, saying that her husband didn't really love her, but just fell in love with her father's power and status, so he premeditated the chance encounter, and also said that she Her husband has another woman outside and is being raised in a mansion in the suburbs, but she foolishly thinks that she is the only one."

After listening.

Shen Jian's eyes were strange.

But then I thought about it, and it seemed like... it was an opportunity.

Think about it.

Shen Jian looked at the lovely wife of the minister and said, "Madam, do you want to see your husband?"

Hear this.

The waiter's wife raised her head in surprise and said softly: "Is that okay? I am still a prisoner, and he is a death row prisoner. There is no possibility of us meeting."

"I can take you there."

Shen Jian's eyes were strange.

The Yuanwailang obviously knew more about the deeds of the third-grade minister, especially after being imprisoned, so there was no need to lie.

In other words.

There is a gap between this loving couple.

He just needs to take the Vice Minister's wife to verify it and let her confirm the authenticity of the news. Then...

I just don’t know if there is a chance to do it in person...

Think of this.

Shen Jian felt a little agitated in his heart.

Full of motivation.
