After hearing Lin Xixue's words, the emperor's face became even more sad, and his eyebrows were completely squeezed into a horoscope.
Lin Xixue did not explain anything more. She just looked at Shi Xueqian on the side and warned: "I will leave the palace later and deliver the news of your death to King Cheng. From now on, don't take it easy and remember to disguise yourself when you are doing it."
Shi Xueqian bowed his hands, indicating that he was aware of Lin Xixue's arrangement.
Lin Xixue immediately concealed her presence, left the palace, and went straight to King Cheng's garden. Using her spiritual sense to detect and confirm that Yanyou was not in the garden at the moment, she sneaked in with confidence and found the secret room where Henying was.
"Hen Ying, come out, right?"
The shadow of the trees on the side twisted for a while, and Hen Ying crawled out from the shadow, half-kneeling and saluting Lin Xixue: "Lord Holy Envoy, you are back!"
"Shi Xueqian is dead."
Henying's eyes under the black hood brightened up, and he began to flatter him crazily: "The Holy Envoy has a wonderful method, and he killed this person without any effort!"
Lin Xixue looked sideways and said in a cold and stern voice: "Hen Ying, please stop patting the horses. Do you think you are guilty?"
When Henying heard this accusation, he was kneeling on one knee instead of kneeling on both knees. He said as quietly as a chill: "This subordinate is stupid, please give me a clear explanation from the Holy Envoy!"
"Do you know who that Yanyou is?"
Henying was slightly startled and said in confusion: "I don't know, but the Holy Envoy ordered me to secretly investigate this person's details before, but I haven't come out yet."
"Hmph!" Lin Xixue snorted coldly, making the Henying tremble in fear, "This person holds the power of reincarnation, do you know it?"
"Injection. Authority?"
Seeing that Hen Ying still looked frightened and confused, Lin Xixue guessed that he had never heard of the monster Zhu Sheng Empress.
However, since Henying had never heard of Empress Zhusheng, she just let herself make it up. She took advantage of the situation and changed her words: "Did you know that your cooperation with the banquet will bring countless troubles to our holy sect?"
!”
"If I report this matter truthfully to the Saint, what do you think will be the consequences?"
"Please, Lord Holy Envoy, please save me. I have never been exposed to the secrets of the sect such as the power of birth, and I can't even identify it!" Hearing this, Henying was completely confused and begged for mercy again and again.
Lin Xixue secretly laughed in her heart, this Henying had indeed fallen into the trap.
In fact, this is taking advantage of a blind spot in thinking caused by information asymmetry. If he didn't say this, he might have to ask the so-called "Holy Sect" for confirmation.
However, he said that he would take the initiative to report the incident to the Saint, and even exaggerated the matter into an extremely serious matter. Henying gave up the idea of reporting it, and cooperated with him with peace of mind.
"Save you, why should I save you?" Lin Xixue was determined to refuse, and Henying suddenly showed a look of despair.
"However." Lin Xixue paused, "People in my holy sect should serve the Heavenly Lord wholeheartedly, and if this matter of injecting authority is not resolved, it will bring a lot of trouble to my holy sect."
"If the Holy Sect is in trouble, it will not be able to serve the Heavenly Lord wholeheartedly, so my next actions are not to save you, but for the overall situation, so that the Holy Sect can better serve the Heavenly Lord, do you understand?"
Henying's mood was fluctuating, and he had completely lost the ability to think rationally. At this moment, Lin Xixue took whatever he said and said repeatedly: "I understand, I understand!"
"I have received a tip. Yanyou will be summoned to the palace soon. You take this opportunity to take King Cheng away from here and go to the dense forest in the north of Jingyun City."
"This subordinate boldly asks the Holy Envoy for advice on why he wants to take King Cheng away. After all, the ultimate purpose of this subordinate's mission is to assist King Cheng and disrupt the situation."
"Huh, idiot!" Lin Xixue scolded angrily.
"Do you know that this Yanyou has the power of life, and when he assists King Cheng in his rebellion, once King Cheng ascends the throne, he will take the opportunity to seize the will power of the entire Yunzhou, and your previous actions will simply become
Someone else’s wedding dress.”
"That's why I ordered you to take King Cheng away and protect him secretly. In fact, you want to keep King Cheng firmly in our hands."
Henying kowtowed one after another and said: "I am stupid and unable to understand the profound meaning of the Holy Envoy."
"Okay, remember what I said. Once this matter fails, I won't be able to save you. I have no choice but to report it truthfully in front of the saint."
"My subordinate understands!" Henying answered decisively.
Lin Xixue brushed her sleeves and said, "I have other things to do next, so I won't stay here for now."
"Best regards, Your Majesty the Holy Envoy!"
Just as Lin Xixue was about to leave, she heard a clear cry coming from the small hole in the stone wall: "Sir Holy Envoy, don't leave. I am still here. When can I leave with you!"
Lin Xixue's face twitched slightly, thinking that this Yanzi was quite smart and didn't call him mother directly like before.
"Don't worry, if nothing happens, you should be able to leave here soon." Lin Xixue reassured.
"Oh, okay." Yanzi's voice sounded a little aggrieved.
Lin Xixue glanced at Hen Ying, disappeared into the garden in a flash, and then went straight to the Confucian Lixin Academy.
When she came again, everyone in the academy had some impressions of her, so she naturally walked all the way to the pavilion where Yanyou was.
At this moment, the banquet still looked gentle and elegant. He stretched out his hand and made an invitation gesture, indicating Lin Xixue to take a seat.
Lin Xixue also pretended that nothing happened. Since there was still a play to be performed during the banquet, she would accompany him to perform the play to the end!
"Miss Lin, is the search successful?"
When Lin Xixue heard this, she sneered in her heart, thinking that you are still here pretending to be unfaithful to me. If you hadn't mastered the key information in advance and used the swallow to cover it up in advance, the person who fell into your hands right now would be Qu Ruoyin herself.
"It didn't go well. The whereabouts of my friend are still unknown." Lin Xixue pretended to be helpless and shook her head.
"Oh? That's true. In fact, I have arranged for my disciples to investigate in various ways before. I heard that Governor Shi had found Miss Lin's friend not long ago. Why is his whereabouts unknown again?"
"Shi Xueqian sent a message to me yesterday, saying that he had found my friend. However, when I heard the news and rushed there, I found that I had been tricked by this guy."
"In a fit of rage, I will kill this man."
"You killed Governor Shi!" Yanyou pretended to be surprised, and the notes of the piano in his hand seemed a bit scattered.
From the perspective of an uninformed outsider, this was because Yanyou was surprised, so he strummed the strings unsteadily and made some noise. However, Lin Xixue had previously deduced that Yanyou was transmitting messages to the outside world through the sound of the piano.
Therefore, the chaotic sound of the piano instantly aroused Lin Xixue's vigilance. She immediately released her spiritual consciousness to check whether any Confucian disciples around her behaved strangely.
Sure enough, she found that outside the wall, a Confucian disciple began to listen carefully after hearing the scattered music, as if he was afraid of missing some key syllables.
Lin Xixue immediately concluded that this person was the one who delivered the news for Yanyou within the Confucian sect, so she locked onto this person with her spiritual consciousness while accompanying Yanyou in acting.
"Yes, this man has teased and teased me over and over again, so of course I want to kill him."
The corners of Yanyou's mouth couldn't help but curve at first, but instantly turned serious, and said in a deep voice: "Miss Lin, you have got into big trouble now."
