Jiang Chen's eyes suddenly lit up, it turned out that He Yingqin and Lu Ce were secretly planning an action against the Shen family.

In other words, the imperial court knew very well that in order to stabilize the situation in the north, it must first resolve its internal worries, so that it could focus on fighting the Northern Yan people.

The Shen family was the source of instability, so a plan was launched against the Shen family. Unfortunately, before it could be launched, it was strangled in the blood-soaked snow forest.

"Do you still have allies in Wangchuan City?" Jiang Chen keenly captured this key point.

He looked at Shen Xueying at the same time, but the latter's expression told him that the Night Criminal Division was completely unaware of this matter.

Lu Ce nodded with certainty. Only he and He Yingqin knew about this matter. It was an absolute secret, but it was not important now.

He said with emotion: "The man in the city was fought over by Mr. He, and our plan must be carried out smoothly with his help. Unfortunately, Mr. He has died unexpectedly, and I have also been seriously injured. It will be impossible to deal with the Shen family in the future.

....”

Speaking of this, Lu Ce felt infinite regret. His lifelong wish was to free the Northern Territory from the control of the powerful families, so that the common people could live and work in peace and contentment, with adequate food and clothing.

Shen Xueying asked at this time: "Who is the person in Wangchuan City who plans to backstab the Shen family?"

"It's Shen Ke, the adopted son of the Shen family."

"So, he was supposed to go to the snow forest to have a secret meeting with you and Mr. He, right?"

"That's right."

Lu Ce didn't know why Shen Ke didn't show up, nor did he know whether the latter was dead or alive.

Shen Xueying looked at Jiang Chen and said: "Those Beiyan people who were hiding in the snowman and setting up an ambush were waiting for Shen Ke to show up, but we didn't expect that we accidentally hit them and saw through them."

"Well, they know everything about this secret meeting. Apparently someone leaked the information in advance. Who else knows about this?"

Under Jiang Chen's questioning, Lu Ce named Ruan Lianggong, but he emphasized that this person was absolutely reliable. Even if something went wrong, it might be someone close to He Yingqin.

However, Jiang Chen, Shen Xueying, and Su Tongtong all understood everything.

Lu Ce asked in surprise: "What? Do you know something?"

"Brother Ruan and I have been close friends for many years. We have fought against the Northern clans through life and death together. We have always treated each other with sincerity and never gave up."

Jiang Chen didn't speak, but asked Su Tongtong to tell everything about Ruan Lianggong, so that Lu Ce could fully see Ruan Lianggong's true face.

This person whom Lu Ce regarded as a close friend who could trust his life, did all sorts of evil things behind his back. If Su Tongtong hadn't come forward to speak out, Lu Ce would have been hard-pressed to believe that this would be the truth.

"Xiao Su, it's all my teacher's fault. You were almost killed by this traitor. Everything was a big mistake because of my ignorance of people. I'm sorry, Mr. He!"

Lu Ce was depressed and regretful after this, but Jiang Chen began to think about how to take this opportunity to attack the Shen family, if that Shen Ke was still alive and had not been exposed.

"Master He will not sacrifice in vain. I can continue what he has accomplished. Tell me your original plan and I will complete it."

Jiang Chen's eyes flashed with firm belief. Shen Xueying knew that he had found a breakthrough and immediately expressed his intention to take her into account.

In the Shen family, there are two people who are Shen Yinglong's right-hand men. They are divided into civil and military affairs. The one in charge is named Ji Bei. This man is very scheming, cunning and cunning. He is the think tank that Shen Yinglong relies on.

The outsider's name was Chai Qizhi, who commanded the private soldiers in Wangchuan City and was responsible for the entire city's defense and all military activities. It is said that this man was greedy for money, lustful, and possessed all five vices, but he was also unambiguous in leading troops to fight.

After Shen Yinglong became the head of the Shen family, he promoted Chai Qizhi to the commander of the private army. Although the two had a master-servant relationship, they were also quite solid allies. Strong military power was the basis for the Shen family to control Wangchuan City.

The strategy of Lu Ce and He Yingqin is to first eliminate these two capable helpers around Shen Yinglong. This will weaken the Shen family's control over Wangchuan City and lay a solid foundation for the complete overthrow of the Shen family.

Having said this, Lu Ce looked at Jiang Chen with suspicion and asked: "These two are very difficult people. Although Shen Ke can provide convenience for you as an insider, it is not easy to get rid of these two people." easy."

"Once the matter is exposed, Wangchuan City will become a death row and drag you into the abyss of death."

Lu Ce's words are true. If you take action on Shen Yinglong's territory, you will become the target of public criticism if you are not careful. It will be like poking a hornet's nest, and you won't even be able to run away.

However, Jiang Chen has already experienced this kind of thing once. He has experienced the huge influence of the Shen family, and this time he is more fully prepared.

Entering Wangchuan City, Shen Xueying found Shen Ke according to what Lu Ce said. This was a secret room hidden in a wine shop in the city. If it weren't for He Yingqin's handwritten letter in his hand, Shen Ke would never have agreed to meet him.

"People from the Night Punishment Department? Why did you go there earlier? They dare to kill even the Minister of War, so what do I care about?"

Shen Ke slammed the table and continued with lingering fear: "If I hadn't been late that day, my head would have been missing by now. This kind of thing is too dangerous. We are no match for Shen Yinglong."

"From now on, don't come to me again."

Shen Xueying raised her eyebrows and said forcefully: "The arrow is on Xuan and I have to shoot it. Do you think you can still be alone and pretend that nothing happened?"

"Since the other party knows the time and place of your secret meeting, it will not be difficult to find you out. It is just a matter of time. If you want to save your life, you have to fight hard. Do you understand?"

Shen Ke fell into silence.

Shen Xueying's words are not unreasonable. It is precisely because Shen Ke felt the threat everywhere that he chose to hide in this unknown secret room. Only here can he feel a little sense of security.

As for asking him to muster up the courage to deal with Shen Yinglong, he no longer had the courage. Even a high-ranking official like He Yingqin could not escape death. How could he, a mere scapegoat of the Shen family, have the confidence to challenge others? Woolen cloth?

"Don't hurt me. I still want to live a little longer. Shen Yinglong won't kill me, at least not yet..."

Shen Ke's last words were so weak that only he could hear them clearly, but Shen Xueying took out her Shen family token at this time.
