Qinglong thought of the lot of bad news he had just received, and said with a somewhat ugly expression.
"Guo Zhen, the main handler of the treasure ship, and others have been killed! Even the shipbuilding information has been lost."
Hearing this, Ye Yuan couldn't help but glance at Shen Lian waiting outside the door, feeling extremely speechless.
Xichang has already taken Shen Lian under his command, and he is sure that this guy will never have time to commit crimes. So... who did it?
Ye Yuan was thoughtful and thought to himself: "Is it Lu Wenzhao? Then who is behind him? Is it other princes or Zhu Wuwu?"
Ye Yuan secretly guessed in his heart and said nothing.
However, Qinglong was not as relaxed as Ye Yuan. He only sat for a few minutes and then withdrew.
After he walked away, Ye Yuan immediately greeted him outside the door.
"Shen Lian."
Shen Lian was very alert and came in as soon as he heard the greeting.
"The Overlord."
"Do you know Guo Zhen...?"
Shen Lian was shocked and wondered how Ye Yuan knew this secret past, but he still answered truthfully.
"For the governor, I know that I know that during the Battle of Sarhu, I and Guo Zhen were both survivors."
Ye Yuan nodded and said.
"They should be three life-and-death friends. Who is the other one?"
Shen Lian was extremely horrified. He didn't know how his governor knew such details. However, although he didn't want to mention this cruel history, it was not a secret. He explained it honestly.
"The other one is Lu Wenzhao, who is now the Jinyi Guard Qianhu."
Ye Yuan thought for a moment before giving instructions in Shen Lian's uneasy eyes.
"Go and check these two people secretly to see if there is any problem. Remember, you can't let anyone find out about this."
"yes."
Shen Lian accepted the order and left, but his heart was very heavy.
After all, these two people are his life and death friends, if there is really a problem...
After just a moment, his eyes became firm and he strode away.
In the hall, Jiang Yuyan asked curiously.
"Sir, why are you so concerned about Shen Lian's past?"
Before Ye Yuan could finish drinking the tea in his hand, Liu Shengpiaoxu started to feel weird.
"Some people are just stupid and can't even think clearly. It's obvious that there is something wrong with Shen Lian's two friends!"
Jiang Yuyan couldn't help but rolled her eyes at her and retorted confidently.
"Huh, I don't know. I'm just curious why the young master asked Shen Lian to investigate. It's obvious that people like Pei Lun and Wang Zhi are more suitable!"
After saying this, Liu Shengpiaoxu finally understood and felt uncomfortable in her heart.
However, she still refused to admit defeat, and she spoke harshly in a hurry.
"Hmph, what else could it be? Your young master must have done it on purpose to test Shen Lian!"
It was just a sudden guess, but as she said it, she believed it.
Jiang Yuyan didn't quite believe this explanation. After all, she knew Ye Yuan better than Liu Shengpiaoxu and knew that he never liked testing his subordinates.
"Sir, what is the reason?"
Of course, Ye Yuan couldn't say that he was familiar with the plot. He believed in Shen Lian, so he could only speak perfunctorily.
"Pei Lun and the others have more important things to do. Moreover, Guo Zhen and the others are just dispensable little characters. They are just abandoned sons. Shen Lian alone is enough."
Liu Shengpiaoxu now tasted the flavor of these words and asked with a surprised look on his face.
"You actually believe Shen Lian!"
Ye Yuan was not interested in answering her question. After all, there was no way to explain this groundless trust.
Seeing this, Liu Shengpiaoxu couldn't help but feel bitter in her heart. After all, considering her status in Japan, not many people would ignore her like this.
However, Jiang Yuyan was very happy when she saw her deflated look. She almost couldn't see her eyes when she smiled, not to mention how sweet her smile was.
However, this made Liu Shengpiaoxu feel even more uncomfortable, and her teeth were almost broken.
In fact, if she hadn't known that she couldn't defeat Ye Yuan, she would have drawn her sword and killed the annoying bitch opposite.
Jiang Yuyan just laughed for a while, then stopped, and then looked at her young master curiously and asked.
"Sir, I think you don't seem to be very concerned about the truth about the shipwreck case."
Liu Shengpiaoxu quickly pricked up her ears, because she also felt this way, and she was very curious about the reason.
After all, Ye Yuan, the governor of the West Factory, relied on Concubine Wan Gui, and Concubine Wan Gui had only the emperor to rely on.
Now that the final decision is about life and death, Ye Yuan can be so calm, and can even be said to be calm and calm. This is contrary to common sense.
Ye Yuan was not surprised that his two maids could discover this and said leisurely.
"The key now is not here, but with God Marquis Tietan. After all, even if there is no shipwreck, Marquis Tietan will still take action. He is the biggest threat."
Although the words are a bit disrespectful to the emperor, it is indeed the case.
Moreover, Ye Yuan actually already knew the emperor's problems well.
Although he didn't know who was behind the shipwreck, he had guessed the one who had damaged the emperor's origin.
Ye Yuan couldn't help but feel a little creepy about this person's methods, and at the same time, it also relieved some of his doubts.
"It turns out that Supervisor Shang Shan is here to do this. Marquis Tietan is indeed very cunning!"
After fooling the two maids, Ye Yuan continued to summarize martial arts and experience, and then pieced together a set of shield martial arts... Zhoutian Shield Technique.
Ahem, this is not because he is arrogant.
There are actually too many tricks in the first version, a total of three to four hundred tricks, so this name is the most appropriate.
These moves are all combined by him intercepting the defense of other martial arts and integrating both offense and defense.
Of course, the coherence between the current set of shield moves is... almost non-existent.
Originally it couldn't be called a set, but someone thought that it would not be a crime to just shout in his heart, so he decided on this noble name.
Although the shield method is not worthy of its name, it is much better than his previous "chaotic cloak".
At the very least, he was now confident that he could fight the Iron Dan Lord openly.
Although Ye Yuan didn't have a strong desire to win, he didn't want to have to face the golden bell and get beaten when fighting against the Iron Dan Lord.
The Golden Bell's defensive power is terrifyingly strong, and it can also counterattack, but after all, it can only counterattack actual contact attacks, and there will also be a slight delay. This is enough for ordinary masters, but it can't be used against iron.
A top grandmaster like Dan Shenhou poses little threat.
If the Iron Dan God only uses long-range attacks, the counter-shock effect will be even more useless.
Ye Yuan worked hard to rehearse the shield moves in his mind, eliminating those that he felt bad about.
He is very self-aware and knows that his talent in this area is not good, so he follows his inner feelings, retains the tricks that suit him best, and tries to fine-tune them.
At the same time, he will also fine-tune the internal force operation route of the moves.
To be honest, if it weren't for his talent field and the help of healing elixirs, he wouldn't dare to do this at all.
After all, he still cherishes his life.
One day later, there were only two hundred moves left.
Two days later, there were only a hundred moves left.
After three days, there were only seventy-two moves left.
Then, Ye Yuan could no longer streamline things.
It's not that there is no room for streamlining the moves, it's just that the experience of many martial arts masters that Ye Yuan has absorbed can only support him to this point.
Although there were still seventy-two moves left, Ye Yuan also found that he had undergone great changes.
Those martial arts experiences have truly become his own, and he feels that he can now better utilize the inner strength of the Grand Master realm.
Now, he has become stronger, and much, much stronger.
