After walking a long way, Qingyi took advantage of the fact that there was no one around and asked Song Shuyan: "Miss, I have a question." ”

Qingyi rarely asked her about things, and Song Shuyan motioned for her to continue.

"Why did Miss shake hands with Liu Xinling's mother and daughter?"

Song Shuyan sneered: "That's what it's for?"

Qingyi said angrily: "Miss, don't laugh, the slave maid thought about it for a long time, but she didn't figure it out." ”

"Silly girl. Song Shuyan scolded with a smile.

It's no wonder that Qingyi is confused, after all, he has received a lot of bullying in the Song Mansion before. Qingyi is such a generous person, and she has always remembered it, will she Song Shuyan remember?

"Now if we want to bring down Shen Zecang, we have to start with the people around him. Shen Zecang is very cautious, the family members are all hand-selected, and we can't stuff people. The only thing that can be broken through is Song Wanyan. ”

Song Shuyan's voice was very small, because he was afraid that someone would hear it.

In other words, Song Wanyan is the person who knows Nanban and Shen Zecang best, and it is perfect for her to be an undercover agent. ”

"So that's why Miss is going to convince Liu Xinling?"

"If you answer correctly, convincing Liu Xinling is equivalent to convincing half of Song Wanyan, and the rest will wait for time. Besides, Liu Xinling is in the Song Mansion, and it is impossible for Song Wanyan to abandon her mother. ”

Although it was a bit despicable, Song Shuyan had to do it.

She wanted Shen Zecang to die too much, in the last life, it was he who caused her not to die well.

In this life, she will let him suffer the consequences no matter what.

Liu Xinling went to see Song Wanyan and persuaded her worriedly: "I heard that Song Shuyan wanted to cooperate with you, but you refused?

She is now under house arrest in Nanban, and she doesn't know when she will be able to come back, if she cooperates with Song Shuyan, she may be able to come back soon.

And Shen Zecang is not a good person.

Song Wanyan frowned: "Did she tell you something?"

"She asked me to help persuade you. Liu Xinling looked at her, "I think you might as well try it out with her." ”

"Mother, I have my own considerations in this matter, so don't get involved. Song Wanyan said with some dissatisfaction.

Liu Xinling was puzzled, "What considerations do you have? My mother is not worried about you, you said that you are so far away in Nanban, and you don't know if you are sick and injured, how can your mother rest assured?"

"Mother, you don't have to worry about me, I will take care of myself. The current situation is not so simple, you can leave it alone. Song Wanyan comforted Liu Xinling.

She naturally wanted to leave Nanban, but she didn't believe that Song Shuyan would really be so kind to help her, what if there was fraud in it?

And she understands Shen Zecang's personality, if she lets him know about this matter, she will definitely not be able to eat and walk around.

This matter is too risky, and it cannot be solved with a single sentence, so she does not hesitate to be cautious.

Liu Xinling couldn't help but sigh, "Forget it, since you said that you have your own considerations, then my mother also respects your choice, but I still hope you can think about it carefully, don't miss this opportunity." ”

Song Wanyan said casually and perfunctorily: "My daughter understands." ”

Soon it was Shen Zeyuan's birthday.

This birthday banquet was organized by Song Shuyan, and he had been preparing for a long time in advance, and he had taken care of all aspects, and various countries had also sent envoys to congratulate Shen Zeyuan.

On the day of his birthday, the palace was extremely busy, and everyone in the palace was in a hurry, with a serious expression, for fear that something would go wrong.

Song Shuyan also got up early, and all the decorations had to be seen one by one, and he could rest assured that there was no problem in person.

After a busy morning, Qinglian helped Song Shuyan sit down and brought her a cup of tea, "Niangniang has worked hard, your sincerity, the emperor must be very moved when he knows it." ”

Song Shuyan smiled, took a sip of tea, and said, "I don't need him to be moved, I just want to hold a birthday banquet for him." ”

For the sake of the people you care about, this feeling is not something that others can experience.

It's a pity that Shen Zeyuan has been very busy all day, and Song Shuyan didn't have a chance to see him.

The envoys of various countries have already arrived, and Shen Zeyuan has given them great courtesy, asking the people at the post station to treat them well and treat them as if they were guests, after all, they are all guests.

Shen Zeyuan also personally hosted a banquet today to entertain the envoys of various countries, take them to visit the barracks, show them how the soldiers train on weekdays, and show them the strong army intentionally or unintentionally.

"Your Majesty, your army is really brave and good at fighting, and no one is invincible. ”

"These soldiers are so well trained, they are very strong, and they are breathtaking. ”

The envoys praised one after another, with smiles on their faces, but their hearts were sinking, understanding that Shen Zeyuan was intent on showing them his strong national strength.

They couldn't laugh when they saw these troops.

"It's just skirmishers, you praise it. Shen Zeyuan smiled slightly, and after the purpose was achieved, he left with them.

The envoys of some countries disagreed, thinking that if Shen Zeyuan did this, maybe the national strength was not so strong.

Sometimes the weaker the person, the more he likes to shout.

The birthday dinner was held in the Imperial Garden, which was full of joy and was exquisitely and cleverly arranged.

Gradually, it came to night.

Song Shuyan had already finished dressing up under the service of the palace maid, and wore an extremely noble purple dress, with a long skirt dragging and looking forward to life.

Shen Zeyuan was wearing a light golden dragon robe, noble and noble, and when he walked into the house and saw Song Shuyan's outfit, he couldn't help but admire, "You are very beautiful in this outfit." ”

Song Shuyan smiled, "Your Majesty is also very good-looking." ”

The corners of Shen Zeyuan's mouth hooked up a smile, walked to Song Shuyan's side, took the initiative to take her hand, and walked out together.

At the banquet scene, all the important ministers and envoys from various countries had already arrived, and with the call of the eunuch, Shen Zeyuan led Song Shuyan to slowly appear, and the audience immediately focused.

"Thank you all for coming to my birthday party, and many of you have come from afar to send your blessings on behalf of various countries, I am very grateful and I hope you all have a great time tonight. After Shen Zeyuan said a few words briefly, the birthday banquet began.

The bell sounded, and soon the graceful dancers appeared, attracting the attention of the audience.

Not only is Zhongle singing and dancing beautiful, but even each dish is carefully boiled, which can be described as extremely careful, so that those who want to pick thorns can't find thorns.

This is Shen Zeyuan's favorite birthday for so many years, he quietly held Song Shuyan's hand under the table, and said softly: "You have worked hard, I like this birthday banquet very much." ”

Song Shuyan smiled softly, "It's good if you like it." Her efforts paid off.

The feast of the night was dispersed very late.

The next day, something happened that shocked the entire capital.
