Ye Shuai and the emperor on Chinese New Year's Eve's conversation, only six people know, so the slightest rumor has not leaked out, even the Shantang, Hetang, and the Ruling Division, who have always been well-informed, do not know what Ye Shuai said to His Majesty when he entered the palace late at night.

However, judging from many signs after the engagement, Ye Shuai did not seem to have received the merits he deserved when he returned with honors.

It is said that on the New Year, even if Mrs. Ye dragged her seriously ill body, she had a big quarrel with her husband, which caused her condition to worsen a little.

In addition, the most unexpected thing is that three days later, Ye Shuai left Luoyang City and led his Imperial Thorn Army to Huizhou.

It is said to be to defend against the possible invasion of the demon people in the future.

On the surface, this matter is indeed reasonable, after all, Nanchuan was originally the permanent residence of the Thorn Army, and the threat of the demon clan is also real, if there is no Ye Shuai in charge, when the spring flowers bloom, I really don't know what will happen.

But the problem is that Ye Shuai is also in too much of a hurry!

Everyone knows that the real purpose of Ye Shuai's return to Beijing to report on his work this time is to investigate Ye Xiao'e's disappearance in the Jinyuan Secret Realm, but in the end, Ye Shuai didn't do anything and left again?

Is the war in Nanchuan really so tight?

Didn't you hear that the demon people had temporarily stopped the pace of the northern invasion and were recuperating?

And even if there is no Ye Shuai's thorn army to guard it, there is still Han Bai, the Marquis of the Ten Directions!

Judging from the title system of the Dajin Dynasty, only those who have obtained military merits on the battlefield are eligible for knighthood, and most of the time in the Dajin Dynasty have been in a period of peace over the years, and there are very few wars, so at the moment, there are actually only four people who can be crowned marquis and above.

Zhen Guogong, Xu Qiu chaos.

Pingnanhou, Xue Sheng.

Wei Ninghou, Ye Jiang.

And this last one, Shifang Hou, Han Bai!

Speaking of this Marquis of Shifang, he is also a relatively special person, you can hear from the name that this person was born in the Han family of the Nine Great Families of Dajin, but the more special thing is that Han Bai was not a military general at the beginning, but determined to be a civil servant!

In the last imperial examination of Dajin, Han Bai relied on his true talent and learned to win the position of Xiucai!

It's a pity that after that, the imperial examination was abolished, so Han Bai couldn't go further, and it is unknown why he chose to abandon literature and martial arts and embark on a long path of cultivation.

After the grassland people broke through the two Xiongguan of the grass cutting defense line one after another, and Emperor Dajin transferred the Thorn Army to Xiling, the Yaobei Army led by Han Bai was transferred from Jingzhou to Huizhou thousands of miles away, in order to fill the vacancy left by the Thorn Army after leaving and defend the southern Xinjiang!

Although the Yaobei Army was caught off guard under the sudden attack of the demon tribesmen, and because they had little understanding of the demon tribe's combat methods, they suffered heavy losses in the early days of the war, but Han Bai was worthy of being a qualified commander in the army, and it took less than ten days to readjust the strategic thinking, revitalize the military prestige, and soon gain a firm foothold, dragging the war with the demon tribe to the stalemate stage, and relying on the sudden cold winter, completely delaying the other party's continued progress.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that it is almost impossible for the demon clan to capture several cities in Dajin one after another as they did at the beginning, and even if they want to attack, they will definitely wait until spring comes.

In this way, it is a little strange that the Thorn Army is moving in such a hurry.

Of course, for this matter, the only military minister in the court, Zhen Guogong, Xu Qiuchao, did not express any opinion, but affirmed Emperor Jin's wisdom and martial arts to a certain extent.

If the abnormal movement of the Thorn Army and Ye Shuai's abnormal behavior were not enough to bring too many doubts to ordinary people, then the other two things that happened next completely blew up the entire Luoyang City.

But in fact, the two things are actually related to each other, and both point to the same forces.

First, on the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, Buju Mountain announced the closure of the mountain!

Second, a large number of officials of the Adjudication Department, officials of the Criminal Department, and a special supervision envoy rushed into the Spring and Autumn Academy like hyenas at the same time, saying that they wanted to investigate and deal with a case of treason!

If it is said that Huizhou, where the Thorn Army went this time, is still thousands of miles away from the capital, then Buju Mountain is on the edge of Luoyang City!

It is conceivable that after this news came out, it would bring shock to the secular world and the cultivation world!

Spring and Autumn Academy rebels?

How is this possible!

That night, Qin Yan summoned a tall and thin middle-aged man who looked like a bamboo pole in Lao Di's teahouse.

Since Qin Xiaohua personally announced at the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet that Qin Yan would be the sole heir of the Good Hall, many of the Qin family's hidden powers were finally displayed in front of Qin Yan for the first time.

For example, the chief director of the Shantang Intelligence Department, Jiang Feng.

Facing the young master, Jiang Feng didn't dare to make a mistake at all, as if he was standing in front of the old lady of the Qin family, he bowed his head, and said slowly: "This raid by the Adjudication Department and the Criminal Department on Buju Mountain is indeed not empty words, they asked for the Holy Decree from His Majesty, and they got some evidence. ”

Qin Yan held a cup of herbal tea in her hand, frowned and asked, "What evidence?"

Jiang Feng took a step forward and handed the bamboo slip in his hand to Qin Yan, and then explained: "The first point is that a few months ago, the teachers and students of the Spring and Autumn Academy were attacked and killed by aliens, according to the ruling department, there should be a traitor. ”

"How so?"

"Because the two academy disciples Mo Yuan and Zhou Bo, who were supposed to return with them, did not see anyone alive or dead, and they still did not return to Buju Mountain after such a long time had passed, and traces of the wrath of the stars were found at the scene, in fact, Zheng Jiaoxi's body was found after examination, and he died at the hands of the wrath of the stars. ”

Although Qin Yan did not participate in the Chunqiu Competition, at least as the helmsman of the Qin Family Shan Hall today, she had carefully read the battle report, and of course she knew that in the last battle of the Chunqiu personal battle, Mo Yuan used the arrow skill that made the world experience.

But just for this reason, there was no way to convince her.

"What else?"

"What's more, it was confirmed by the head of the Murong family that Tao Zhiqian of the Heavenly Star Academy, Old Professor Tao, died at the hands of Wei Qiuyue, the vice president of the Spring and Autumn Academy!"

Hearing this, Qin Yan immediately raised her eyebrows secretly: "After experiencing the Spring Rebellion, can you still believe the words of the Murong family?"

Jiang Feng shook his head lightly: "It doesn't matter if we believe it or not, the important thing is that Your Majesty believes it, and the supervising envoy who led this matter is even more convinced." ”

Qin Yan slowly put down the teacup in her hand and sighed, "His Royal Highness the Prince......"
