Chapter 43 43 He Comes to Take His Throne
Liang Shuang stared blankly at the chaotic situation outside the door, and couldn't even eat the tofu dumplings.

No appetite at all.

Wen Shulin paced back and forth, as if thinking about something.

"Stop shaking, that... I'm dizzy."

"Ah?" Wen Shulin quickly approached her and sat down beside her: "But what's uncomfortable?"

Liang Shuang sighed slightly, and looked at his worried expression again, so he had no choice but to take back the words "Are you straight?"

She jumped up at the case: "You said, is it possible? Shen Yanxu killed his brother and father to sit on the throne of the emperor? Why else, because of his unstable position, he sent people to assassinate the sixth family of Wulin in Nanman to make an example of others?"

After speaking, she tore the small piece of paper into smaller pieces.

Wen Shulin said: "We know about the killing of brothers and fathers. It is obviously false. As for the disastrous defeat of the Sixth Family of Wulin in Nanman, that is what they asked for."

She didn't act rashly, just poured a cup of tea, and burned all the tofu balls to Wen Shulin.

"Miss?" Wen Shulin put away the moon-inviting fan: "What? No need?"

"I'm not in the mood, I don't have an appetite." Liang Shuang was so angry that his upper teeth fought with his lower teeth, thinking why he was so unlucky recently?

Either the cause of Gu Wenxi's death is still unsolved, or Lin Yuege left at a critical moment, and now, fortunately, there is another mystery.

Who sent these scraps of paper that are enough to make people panic?

When she walked out of Baiweitang, the scattered papers were like falling flowers, but this scene always made people feel sad.

What Shen Yan and Xu Mingming hadn't done would be misunderstood no matter what. It was always a tragedy for him to sit in that high position.

The common people turned pale with fright, and lamented that the next step, the emperor's plan might be to let the imperial court undergo a major reshuffle.

Liang Shuang stepped forward and asked, "Old man, may I ask who sent these things?"

The old man shook his head and pointed to the long street in the distance: "Where did it come from? It's normal that the wind is strong."

"Well, thank you, old man." She frowned.

Wen Shulin walked down the steps slowly. Although he was a little surprised, he didn't take it seriously.

"Hey, he is unpopular, and it will be a matter of time before someone turns against him. I think these papers are probably sent out by a minister in the court who is dissatisfied with him."

Liang Shuang had doubts about this interpretation. After all, in her mind, it was full of flaws: "How can you tell that he is unpopular? And how can you tell that the court ministers are dissatisfied with him?"

"Oh, I'm just inferring casually." He coughed a few times.

She sneered and didn't bother to talk to him.

Seeing her dissatisfied expression, Wen Shulin murmured in a low voice: "It's just that I said something bad about him, so she won't be very happy."

"Even his status in her heart is higher than mine..."

It's not that Liang Shuang didn't hear it, she glanced at the sullen Wen Shulin, but she was very depressed thinking about the source of these pieces of paper.

She picked up a piece of paper and examined it carefully.

The texture is not rough, but the quality is not very good either. It should be the writing paper commonly used by dignitaries or rich merchants.

She checked the text, and every word was very neat, while the text on the other piece of paper was the same size as the text on the previous piece of paper, without any difference.

She picked up several more pieces of paper and compared them for a moment, all the handwriting was consistent.

Could it be some kind of movable type printing?

She smiled, it's really funny, which ordinary family can afford movable type printing?
However, if it is inferred like this, what Wen Shulin said is very likely to be correct. The ministers in the court were dissatisfied with him, so they came up with such a bad move.

The point is that this kind of trick hurts one hundred and self-damages three thousand. It's impossible for the court ministers to be so stupid that they don't even protect their official titles, right?Just against Shen Yanxu?
Therefore, Liang Shuang came to a conclusion: "Wen Shulin, I guess, the person who distributed these small pieces of paper must be someone from outside Daxiang."

"Why do you think so?"

"First of all, it is impossible to use such a poor trick to fight against the emperor's rule within Daxiang.

"Secondly, with such a poor trick, he must have other uses. For example, to lure snakes out of holes, to hide ears and steal bells, and so on.

"In the end, I think that the intention of those who sent these small pieces of paper was not on the Emperor Daxiang, but to disturb the peace, tranquility and stability of Daxiang."

"It makes sense." Wen Shulin admired her deeply.

Zhaoyang City is not peaceful at the beginning. Rumors are spreading in the streets and alleys, such as "His Majesty wants to clean up the important officials of the court", "The Way of the Faint King", "The Emperor Daxiang's meddling in the rivers and lakes, the next step may not even the common people." Let go".

Liang Shuang feels sorry for these powerless people, after all, they are the most easily incited forces.

After a while, the crowd rushed towards the west side of Zhaoyang City. At first, Liang Shuang thought it was just that the rumor had spread to the farthest west side, and people rushed to join in the fun.

Unexpectedly, one person rode a white horse, followed by a group of troops, and walked slowly from the west city to the main city.

The distance was too far, Liang Shuang couldn't see clearly.

Seeing that the man seemed to be dressed in white, a bright yellow cape, and a huge crown of hair, he seemed to be a handsome and handsome man.

Everyone was saluting to him, and as he walked, the people knelt all the way, and the people kowtowed, just like the grand scene when the emperor passed by.

army?A first-rank general in the imperial court?Impossible, General Yipin is an old man.his son?Impossible, the old man's son has not yet become an official, nor has he made great military exploits, so how could the common people perform such a great gift.

The man was approaching, and Liang Shuang only realized that his figure was familiar. He compared all the people in his memory with him, and found that this memory point could never overlap.

On the one hand, he accepted the respect from the people, and on the other hand, he showed that he was willing to accept this kind of treatment.

Liang Shuang really didn't understand.

Wen Shulin took a closer look, and was so shocked that he couldn't speak clearly: "What's going on? He shouldn't have appeared at this time..."

She came back to her senses: "Who is he, I can't see clearly, but I always feel that I know him."

He patted Liang Shuang on the head with a folding fan: "Stupid! You have seen this young man before."

It wasn't until the man had arrived in front of her eyes that Liang Shuang suddenly realized.

"Shen, Shen Wanjin?"

Shen Wanjin got off the horse, and he tried to hold Liang Shuang's hand, but Liang Shuang was stunned for a moment, and then withdrew his outstretched hand.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

"Uh-huh."

Liang Shuang didn't dare to look at him, thinking why did he just come back at this juncture?

On one side are overwhelming rumors, and on the other side are overwhelming pieces of paper.

Shen Wanjin just appeared at this time, and he clearly said that he would not return to Zhaoyang City.

And he has concealed his identity for so many years, shouldn't he continue to conceal it even if he comes back?And so much fanfare.

It's like...he's the emperor.

Liang Shuang retracted that bad guess, Shen Yanxu and Shen Wanjin are a pair of good brothers and good friends, it is impossible to betray each other.

Seeing that Liang Shuang didn't like him very much, he slowly bent down and controlled his height to be the same as hers.

Shen Wanjin was at least two heads taller than her, and the way she leaned over and whispered was like, Liang Shuang was his daughter...

"Why? It's just that I haven't seen you for a few days, and you're unfamiliar with me? Didn't you want me to go back to Zhaoyang City with you?"

Liang Shuang was dissatisfied, and said in a low voice: "I asked you to come back, but I didn't let you come back with great fanfare. What will Shen Yanxu do if you do this? He is already on the cusp of the storm."

Shen Wanjin smiled and didn't care at all: "What does it matter to me whether he is on the cusp or not?"

"you?"

Liang Shuang's previous three views collapsed in an instant. Aren't he and Shen Yanxu the best brothers?Why did the friendship suddenly break down?

"I didn't expect," Shen Wanjin said casually, "you are so worried about him?"

Liang Shuang was speechless.

Wen Shulin held him back: "Why are you coming back at this time? Something is going to happen."

"what?"

"Now that he killed his father and brother to seize the throne, everyone in the city knows it, but what do you want to do when you come back at this time?"

"Hmph," Shen Wanjin continued to smile, as if a knife was hidden in her gentle smile, "I sent out the rumor."

? !
"What are you doing?"

"What?" Shen Wanjin spoke loudly on purpose: "He robbed me of the throne and kicked me out of Daxiang. Can't I take it back?"

Liang Shuang frowned, how could it be so sudden?It really wasn't as simple as she thought.

She looked at Shen Wanjin, and met his gentle expression: "Is Gu poison also involved?"

Shen Wanjin was stunned for a moment after hearing this, a little bored, but she still followed her thoughts: "Yes, what's the matter?"

Liang Shuang only knew that Shen Wanjin in the game was really dead, and it was written in the profile that he was a tolerant person.

Now, not only is he alive, but he also did such an outrageous thing, Liang Shuang still doesn't quite understand.

He wanted to hold Liang Shuang's hand: "Don't worry, when I take back the throne, you will still be the queen."

She broke free from him violently: "I don't care what you want to do, and I don't want to, so please don't have anything to do with me."

Shen Wanjin looked at her back, with mixed feelings in her heart, and a feeling of being lost suddenly emerged.

Wen Shulin also sighed, expressing his disappointment to him: "You, do it yourself."

Liang Shuang followed Wen Shulin all the way, and they stopped in front of a house.

"Go back to the palace."

"No more." Liang Shuang clapped his hands, a little sullen.

"Why? Is it uncomfortable to live in Fengyi Palace?"

Liang Shuang didn't answer him, just looked up at the plaque, there were only two large characters on it.

Wen Fu.

"Okay, as a killer, you actually have a house in Zhaoyang City."

Wen Shulin nodded: "Is there any problem? As killers, we are not short of money. Isn't buying a house a piece of cake?"

"Are you really not afraid that the enemy will come to your door?"

"The key is that the enemy doesn't know. My name is Wen Shulin... Killers always want to hide their identities, and they won't tell the whole story easily."

Liang Shuang smiled helplessly: "Then, how about I borrow it for a few days? If necessary, I can give you some rent."

"Am I such a stingy person?" Wen Shulin murmured softly as soon as he finished speaking: "If you live... I'm too happy to be happy."

The courtyard is filled with the sound of gurgling water and pleasant birdsong. It seems that it is not a permanent residence. No one cleans the Wen Mansion all year round, and weeds are overgrown around the corners.

However, the environment seems to be not bad.

Liang held a nesting bird in both hands, jumped to the top of a tree branch, and sent the bird home.

She felt much more relaxed, but she didn't know what to do next.

She is desperate now, and the only person she can trust is Wen Shulin.

"Leader Wen, me, what should I do next?"

He was stunned for a moment when he heard this address, he always felt a little unfamiliar, his expression was a little unhappy, but his face was still gentle, after all, the person in front of him was his sweetheart.

"Just follow your heart." He shook the moon invitation fan.

"My goal is to find the person who made the Gu, and find out the reason behind his plan."

"So, you understand very well, why ask me?" Wen Shulin went to the kitchen with firewood to light the stove, and boiled a pot of hot water.

"So, is Shen Wanjin coming back now to take back the throne?"

Wen Shulin shook his head: "I don't believe it."

"I don't believe it either." Liang Shuangsi said: "But he is very serious."

Wen Shulin smiled helplessly: "Maybe, he just behaved like this in front of you on purpose."

"What do you mean? Is it the behavior of the peacock spreading its tail?"

Wen Shulin didn't quite understand, and his eyebrows tightened into a faint "Chuan".

Peacock?Courtship?Oh, I have increased my knowledge...

"Okay, miss, don't worry about the matter between their brothers, let's go and find out, where did Lin Yuege go?"

Liang Shuang nodded again and again: "That's right, let's ignore them first, and settle the matter on our side first."

Lin Yuege's whereabouts have long since been lost, and even Wen Shulin, the know-it-all who sent out to search for him, returned empty-handed, without receiving any information.

That woman seemed to have evaporated from the world.

"By the way, I have seen Shen Yanxu meeting Lin Yuege before, which means that the two of them know each other." Liang Shuang thought about it carefully.

"Any other clues?" Wen Shulin asked.

"Ah, there is more!" Liang Shuang drank some hot water: "Shen Yanxu said that he would send someone to watch Lin Yuege closely, which means that Shen Yanxu must have clues about Lin Yuege."

"Hey, don't you want to go back to the palace too?" Wen Shulin was slightly dissatisfied.

"Are you unhappy when I go back?"

"of course."

"Then you urged me to go back to the palace just now."

"Since you have lived in my Wenfu, I don't want you to go away."

"..."

Liang Shuang immediately turned around and stepped out of Wen's residence, followed by Wen Shulin.

"Wait for me!"

As soon as the front foot reached the gate of the palace, Shen Wanjin led the troops into the palace with the back foot.

From this look, Shen Wanjin should be serious.

Liang Shuang never thought that Shen Yanxu was a villain. Although he made inappropriate decisions when he was the emperor, he would not be cast aside by thousands of people.

Besides, why did Daxiang rise from doing business? Thanks to Shen Yanxu's fancy to the development of commerce, otherwise where would the prosperous Daxiang come from?
"Let's just go in lightly."

"You want to protect him? Shen Yanxu?" Wen Shulin stopped her.

"Yes." Liang Shuang did not hesitate.

"I can't see it. Although you say you hate Shen Yanxu, you will still save him when the critical moment comes."

"Yeah." Her tone was a little cold.

Wen Shulin smiled: "To be honest, I also believe that Shen Yanxu's heart is not bad, but as an emperor, he is really bad."

His smile made her feel like a spring breeze, and the harsh sound of weapons clashing in the palace was completely blocked by her automatically.

She managed to twitch the corner of her mouth to get that satisfied smile.

She thought about it, and it was indeed a blessing to meet Wen Shulin.

When Wen Shulin looked at her, he was wearing purple clothes, a fan inviting the moon, and a cap that fluttered like the wind.

It seems that the whole world has softened.

 Recently, the state of writing articles is not very good. The article is about to end and I don’t want it to be unfinished, so I am struggling. At the same time, I am preparing for the next article... My spirit has lost control and I am crying.
