Chapter 1040: The Truth Revealed

"Oh, I wonder what kind of thoughts and purposes Lord Shen has?" Hearing Shen Yan's slightly straightforward words, Xia Yuwei's eyes flashed a strange look, and from Shen Yan's brief dialogue, Xia Yuwei found that this Shen Yan was still very different from other officials.

Shen Yan's thinking is not constrained by any rules, he is active in thinking, and good at observation, the most important point is that Shen Yan does have some real skills in his belly, coupled with the right timing, these factors combine to create Shen Yan's current achievements. Therefore, anyone's success is not a fluke, but with their own efforts and talents step by step.

Thinking of this, Xia Yuwei seemed to face Shen Yan for the first time. Although she got a lot of information about Shen Yan from Xia Yuhan's mouth before, although Xia Yuhan is also quite smart, however, Xia Yuwei obviously felt Xia Yuhan's bias towards Shen Yan from Xia Yuhan's mouth, so Xia Yuwei had to consider some of Xia Yuhan's words to Shen Yan carefully, and now after a brief exchange with Shen Yan, Xia Yuwei's evaluation of Shen Yan has changed significantly.

"The eldest princess may have heard that Weichen had been assassinated before going to Huaibei County, and the clues that Weichen obtained from all sides pointed to a certain power group, and at that time, although Weichen had a certain status in the emperor's mind, but compared with that power group, Weichen did not have any advantages, even if the emperor would be angry for Weichen, but at most he could only reprimand that power group for a sentence or two, which undoubtedly had no effect at all." Shen Yan glanced at Xia Yuwei lightly, although it was very rude, but Shen Yan just wanted to see through Xia Yuwei's eyes to see through her inner thoughts.

Although Shen Yan doesn't know how to read minds, Shen Yan still knows some simple psychology, and can catch some psychological changes in the other party through the changes in the other party's eyes and the movement of his eyes, and this is the real reason why Shen Yan looked at Xia Yuwei.

Although Xia Yuwei is very smart, after all, she has not experienced the test of life and death, nor has she experienced too many struggles, so some things know that she wants to hide them so as to gain more, but these things are more floating on the surface, and this also happened to be observed by Shen Yan, so Shen Yan can basically conclude that Xia Yuwei obviously wants to understand the true thoughts in her heart, as for whether she wants to know more about herself or use it for other purposes, Shen Yan still needs to observe one or two.

Shen Yan had these basic ideas in his mind, so he felt that confiding some real information to Xia Yuwei seemed to be able to grasp more initiative, especially since this information had become an open secret, even if he didn't say it, Xia Yuwei could find out as long as he wanted to understand, so Shen Yan would make this choice with an open and honest look.

"The emperor will comprehensively weigh the pros and cons of this matter, and Weichen can't bring a greater value to the emperor at that time, so the emperor won't force himself out for Weichen at all. And although Wechen is not a person who will be avenged, but he doesn't want to take revenge when he is assassinated, or a tooth for a tooth, then Wechen is indeed a little unbearable in his heart, but unfortunately, Wechen did not have the strength to affect the whole situation at that time, so Wechen could only choose temporary forbearance. When Shen Yan said this, a faint helplessness flashed in his eyes, but more perseverance, a faint but confident smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he continued.

"Since the emperor will not give Weichen a head after weighing the pros and cons, then this revenge can only be avenged by Weichen himself, and Weichen does not have such strength, there are two choices in front of Weichen, one is to pretend that nothing happened and choose to give up or ignore this hatred, and the second is to accumulate enough strength at all costs, Weichen knows what kind of person he is, so he chose the second one without hesitation." Shen Yan's eyes flashed with a touch of indifference, and there was a calm look on his face, as if what he said had nothing to do with him, he was telling someone else's story.

"There are many ways to accumulate strength, and the fastest is to accumulate enough military merits, so as to gain greater power and influence, it just so happens that the White Lotus Sect of Huaibei County is huge, almost sweeping the entire Huaibei County, so that the administration of Huaibei County has fallen into a state of paralysis, at that time, although Wei Chen knew very well in his heart, if he wanted to rely on Wei Chen's five thousand Great Xia Royal Army, there was no chance and possibility of turning the tide of the war at all, but Wei Chen still made this choice, the purpose was to accumulate greater strength." The corners of Shen Yan's mouth lifted slightly, revealing a row of white teeth, and with a faint smile, he said slowly.

"Fortunately, Wechen succeeded by luck, not only did he die in the hands of the White Lotus Sect in Huaibei County, but he became more and more courageous, the size of the army is getting bigger and bigger, and the strength has also been developed to a certain extent, although the current strength is very good, but if you want to take revenge, there seems to be a gap, but Wechen feels that this gap is not far away, as long as Wechen accumulates a little more power, the situation will be completely reversed."

"So, do you want to reopen the old case of the eldest princess and the horse, so as to accumulate greater fame and greater strength for you?" After listening to Shen Yan's words, Xia Yuwei had an indescribable feeling, saying that Shen Yan was sincere, it was indeed sincere enough, but this sincerity made Xia Yuwei a little unacceptable, or no one could accept it: You are the chess piece I used for promotion.

"The eldest princess has a misunderstanding, and it is true that Wechen wants to accumulate strength to take revenge, but he does not want to reopen the old case of the eldest princess and the horse, the reason why Wechen took the initiative to intervene is mainly because of the token that appeared in the court at the beginning of the eldest princess, and the person who held the token was the younger brother of the eldest princess and the horse, and now he is a member of the Jinyi School, whether it is public or private, as the commander of the Jinyi School, or the emperor's courtiers, Or if someone else wants to use Wechen's hand to investigate the old case, Wechen has to get involved. A hint of helplessness flashed in Shen Yan's eyes, and then the corners of his mouth smiled slightly, and he said lightly.

"There were too many people involved in the old case of the eldest princess and the horse, and many people were unwilling to overturn the case, once the case is overturned, the truth will come to light, and some of their ugly practices will be made public."
