Shen Xueying personally admitted that He Yingqin, the secretary of the Ministry of War, secretly went north this time to convey the emperor's determination to resist the Northern Yan.

Now the voices advocating peace in the court are becoming more and more intense, especially after hearing that Jiang Chen killed Xiao Tong, which made the officials of the Lord and faction stunned and panicked.

For those patriots who have the heart to serve the country with fists, this news is undoubtedly when the clouds cover the sun, and suddenly they see a dawn falling into the sky, as if symbolizing the national fortune of the great cadres to see the blue sky through the clouds and mist.

But in the eyes of those officials who were completely frightened by the Northern Yan people, there was no so-called hope at all, and they regarded the Northern Yan people as fierce beasts, just like those uninformed ordinary people, who really thought that the Northern Yan people were all blue-faced and fanged, and drank blood.

Of course, these lords and faction officials also have their own plans, and when the country is invaded by war, the first thing they think about is not the survival of the people and the turmoil in the society, but how to keep their wealth, status and reputation.

These hard-won things are the capital to ensure that they can always live a rich and luxurious life, and with the direction of the Northern Yan soldiers, all this may come to naught in an instant.

They do not think about how to work together to serve the country and keep the invaders out of the country, but do everything possible to get the country to cede land and pay compensation, and exchange national interests for their personal interests in a posture of wagging their tails and begging for mercy.

As long as the people of Beiyan do not come to the royal capital, then their fame and fortune and wealth will be safe, and there is nothing more important than this matter, and Jiang Chen, who is nothing, wants to drag Daqian into the dangerous situation of all-out war with Beiyan.

It is not permissible for a down-and-out scholar from a humble background to become a national hero who saves the great cadres, but forcibly drags many high-ranking officials and dignitaries standing above the temple to the brink of danger that the jade will be burned at any time.

Does Jiang Chen dare to coerce everyone and gamble everything for his hero's dream of the Spring and Autumn Period?

There is a force in the DPRK and China trying to stop the situation from developing in a direction they do not want to see, and instead of rejoicing at the good news from the front, they pride themselves on seeing the essence of the situation clearly.

The killing of the Northern Yan generals is bound to anger the Northern Yan people, and when they march into the army again, will the big cadres be able to parry?

This is indeed a debatable issue, and it is also the key to the decision-making of the imperial court, and most people look at this issue with a very pessimistic mood.

Because of the huge resistance, the emperor asked a court official like the military department Shangshu to run this trip in person, and chose to act secretly to ensure safety, but something still happened.

Shen Xueying's Night Execution Division is the most relied on force of the emperor, so the news she personally confirmed will definitely not be false.

Han Yuyang said: "It is gratifying that the emperor has finally made up his mind, but He Yingqin's death has dealt a heavy blow to the main battle faction in the DPRK and China. It is impossible to predict how events will develop next. ”

A trace of distress flashed on his face, as a front-line coach, only he knew the weight of the burden on his shoulders at the moment.

As soon as He Yingqin died, there was originally a glimmer of hope that it was possible to ask the imperial court for armaments and materials, but now I am afraid that it will be completely shattered, and it is really worrying about how the war will develop next.

Jiang Chen thought about it seriously, and then asked Shen Xueying, "How far is the incident from here?" ”

"To the south, along the Quzhao River, from Wangchuan City and the Desperate Mountain Range, one hundred and twenty miles through, is the place where He Yingqin was killed, if the weather is not very bad, you can reach it in one night."

"Also, according to the information from my subordinates, it seems that there is a third party at the scene."

A third party?

Shen Xueying said: "The people of our Night Execution Division have rushed to the scene as soon as possible, and the footprints on the ground and the traces of the fight are all covered by ice and snow, so they have not been able to find any valuable clues. ”

"But I picked up something special from the scene."

Then, Shen Xueying took out a letter from her body, and after spreading it out, she drew a pattern that resembled a plum blossom, which was the original appearance of the object that fell at the scene.

"Snow Thunderbolt ......"

Standing in the corner, Su Tongtong, who was almost forgotten by everyone, blurted out subconsciously.

Her voice was actually very soft, but at this moment the four people in the camp looked at her in unison, and everyone's ears and eyes were so keen.

"Woman, do you know something?"

Su Tongtong nodded his head paradoxically, and then quickly shook his head like a rattle.

"This snow thunderbolt is a famous secret weapon of a master in the north, and falling at the scene shows that he has something to do with it, but he is not the murderer who attacked and killed He Yingqin."

Listening to Shen Xueying's words, Jiang Chen couldn't help but ask, "Why are you so sure that he is not a murderer?" ”

Shen Xueying replied without hesitation: "Because none of these people who were attacked died under the snow thunderbolt. ”

It seemed that this matter was more responsible than imagined, Jiang Chen looked at Su Tongtong and said, "Aren't you going to tell us what this master of using Snow Thunderbolt has to do with you?" ”

Su Tongtong was a little apprehensive in her heart, but since it was Jiang Chen who opened her mouth to ask, she had no choice but to tell the truth.

"This master of the Snow Thunderbolt is my master Lu Ce, and he is also the leader of the Snow Trace Organization."

Shen Xueying nodded and said, "Yes, our investigation has also verified this, and the person who appeared at the scene is Lu Ce, but we don't know what his motives and purpose are." ”

"Master, he must have seen the injustice and drew a sword to help, what other purpose could he have?"

Su Tongtong hurriedly explained.

Without seeing it with your own eyes, you can't judge anything.

Jiang Chen immediately made a decision, "Old Qin, this matter is very involved, you can't just forget it in a vague way, the sooner you find out the truth, the more you can grasp the initiative, I will leave immediately." ”

"What you said is right, then bring more people, the other party even dares to move the court officials, it will definitely be very dangerous."

"No need."

"No need......

It was natural for Han Yuyang to think about it like this, but he didn't expect Jiang Chen and Shen Xueying to refuse in unison.

The two subconsciously looked at each other, obviously not discussed in advance.

Jiang Chen explained: "This time I went to the scene to investigate the case, in order to find out the clues and find out the culprit, so we can avoid unnecessary battles, so we will try to avoid it." ”

"If you go with great fanfare, your whereabouts will be exposed, so I think Miss Shen and I are enough."
