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, but 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. Don't take it easy from now on, and remember to disguise yourself when you act."
Shi Xueqian bowed his hands, indicating that he was aware of Lin Xixue's arrangement.
Lin Xixue immediately concealed her aura, left the palace, and went straight to King Cheng's garden. After using his spiritual sense to detect and confirm that Yanyou was not in the garden at the moment, he sneaked in with confidence and found the secret room where Henying was.
"Hen Ying, come out."
The shadows of the trees on the side twisted for a while, and Hen Ying crawled out from the shadows. He knelt down and saluted 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 know your guilt?"
As soon as Henying heard this accusation, he knelt down on one knee instead of on both knees, and said as silently as a chill: "This subordinate is stupid, please give me a clear explanation, Lord 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 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 Zhusheng Empress.
However, since Henying had never heard of Empress Zhusheng, she was allowed to make up everything by herself. She changed her words and said, "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, 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, Hen Ying 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, maybe Henying would have to talk to the so-called "Holy Sect" for verification.
But he said that he would take the initiative to report 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 desperate and wanted to refuse, Hen Ying suddenly showed a look of despair.
"However." Lin Xixue paused, "The people in my Holy Sect should serve the Heavenly Lord wholeheartedly, and if this matter of birthright 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 has the guts to ask the Holy Envoy for advice. I don't know 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 yelled 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 fail 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: "Master Holy Envoy, don't leave. I am still here. When can I leave with you!"
Lin Xixue's face twitched slightly, thinking that Yanzi was quite smart and didn't call her 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 unimpeded to the pavilion where Yanyou was.
At this moment, Yan You was still looking gentle and elegant. He stretched out his hand and made an invitation gesture, indicating that Lin Xixue should 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?"
Hearing this, Lin Xixue sneered in her heart, thinking that you are still pretending to be with me here. 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. 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 this friend of mine. However, when I rushed there after hearing the news, I found that I had been tricked by this guy."
"In anger, I killed 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 is because Yanyou was surprised, so he strummed the strings unsteadily and made some noise. However, Lin Xixue had previously deduced that Yanyou conveyed messages to the outside world through the sound of the piano.
Therefore, the chaotic sound of the piano immediately 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 person who delivered the message for Yanyou in 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 naturally I want to kill him."
The corners of Yanyou's mouth couldn't help but curve at first, but in an instant it turned serious, and she said in a deep voice: "Miss Lin, you have got into a big trouble now."
