Compared to the vast border, the capital was bustling with activity. It seemed to have an air of nobility about it, but it also made people feel a little dizzy.
Ye Feng was galloping at a very fast speed and looked like he was worn out from the journey, but he did not have the time to be lazy. In his heart, he was anxious and wanted to report this matter to the emperor.
Now that the matter of the general had occurred to the emperor, his heart was filled with worry, plus with the addition of the hundreds of officials in the imperial court, there was a bit of pressure, and Ye Feng could not be slow.
Just like that, he rushed into the palace. After slightly tidying up his clothes, he didn't lose etiquette.
It was quite a coincidence now, perhaps because he was anxious, but he would often go to the pavilion at the entrance of the palace and sit down, hoping to receive news of his father as soon as possible.
At first, Shen Qingwan thought that she was seeing things. She lightly wiped the corner of her eyes with the tight handkerchief in her hand. She had thought that she was just a little anxious, but now she actually appeared.
As a result, the coldness on Shen Qingwan's body subsided.
"Greetings Concubine Xian." Ye Feng also saw it and slightly bowed.
"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. How can Ye Feng accept the kindness of the Empress? Everything is under the responsibility of the Emperor and the Empress. It is also a great honor for the Empress to be able to help the Emperor and the Empress." Ye Feng's attitude was humble and polite. Although the two of them could be considered to be familiar with each other, since they were at the entrance of the palace, they still needed to be polite in order to avoid people behind their backs chewing on their tongues.
"Does Ye Bodyguard need to go find the Emperor? Since this is the case, I think it would be better to travel together and listen to the experiences Ye Bodyguard had in the past few days. " The corner of Shen Qingwan's mouth slightly rose, appearing a little lively.
"As you command."
Shen Qing Wan backed off from the crowd and chatted for a while. In the end, she asked the question that was on her mind the most, "Ye Bodyguard, what did you discover during this trip?" Shen Qingwan's heart trembled a little. She was afraid that she would hear some bad news. However, it was a good thing. She heaved a sigh of relief. After all, she had a huge burden in her heart today.
"I was hiding in the barracks, but I really did discover the spies in the army." Ye Feng seemed to recall the scene from that day, and Shen Qingwan was also somewhat astonished. Now she actually hoped that there weren't any more spies in the army camp. After all, these soldiers who were willing to risk their lives for their country were all innocent!
"I never thought that even the military camp would be infiltrated with spies. If we don't get rid of this spy, it will be a hidden danger in the end." Hearing this, Xiufeng frowned. He knew what kind of place in the military could have spies planted inside!
Thinking this way, Shen Qingwan couldn't help but feel a chill run down her spine. After all, the real mastermind behind all of this was probably not a simple person.
"In that case, the Ye Bodyguard has found out about the spies, but have you found out who the mastermind is?" After all, everything was controlled by someone. If they were unable to find him, even if a spy missed out on him, they could still choose to abandon him. After all, there was still going to be some trouble.
"This …" After all, these matters have yet to be reported to the Emperor, and should not be told to others, but when he thought about the matter with Li Ruotong, it was all thanks to the support of the Concubine Xian.
Perhaps because she saw that Ye Bodyguard was in a difficult situation, Shen Qing Wan did not want to force the issue. She wanted to say it out loud, but Ye Bodyguard got there first, so she explained the whole situation.
After hearing about it, Shen Qingwan's brows tightly knitted together. This matter actually involved Ninth Prince Fu Huaiyu, and now, it was difficult for his to calm down.
"Ye Bodyguard, I feel that this matter should not be disclosed …" Shen Qingwan's brows furrowed as he thought for a while before he slowly opened his mouth and said.
After all, he himself understood Fu Yuheng. If he were to say it out loud, based on his character, it would be hard for him to not believe it. If he were to accidentally alert the Ninth Prince and arouse suspicions, things would become difficult in the future.
"Then esteemed wangfei's meaning is …" Ye Feng also knew that Shen Qingwan must have her reasons for saying so. If she thought about it carefully in her heart, she could have some idea of it.
"This matter needs to be considered from a long-term perspective. Ye Bodyguard, when the Emperor comes back, can you temporarily hide the mastermind behind this? I'm worried …" Shen Qingwan did not say anything else, but her heart was sunk in a quagmire. It was as if everything was like a mist quietly covering everything, making it hard for the people inside to guard against it.
Ye Bodyguard agreed readily and continued to chat with Shen Qingwan for a while. Fu Yuheng, who was at the side, also found out about Ye Feng's news and sent his eunuch, who was standing beside him, to bring Ye Feng over.
"Greetings, your Imperial Majesty." Ye Feng's voice was loud and clear, and Fu Yuheng, who was in the middle of preparing the imperial report, looked him up and down. After confirming that he was unharmed, he heaved a sigh of relief.
"Get up. How is the investigation going in the military?" After all, the matter at the border was extremely important. The current situation within the army was related to the safety of one's country.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, this humble servant had concealed himself within the army this time and discovered some spies in the army. Now, it seems that General Shen was framed." Fu Yuheng frowned slightly. "Have you found out who the mastermind is?"
"Not yet." Ye Feng also remembered Shen Qing Wan's request, but he did not tell her about it. After all, this was a dispute within the royal family, and if it was not handled well, it would be the misfortune of the country.
Fu Yuheng bent his abdomen and lightly knocked on the corner of the table. From the looks of it, the military was not peaceful either.
"A bunch of gluttons!" Fu Yuheng was not angry. That was a lie. After all, these people were actually doing such things while enjoying the salary of the imperial government. These worms, of course, would be severely punished if they were found out!
Fu Yuheng then asked about the situation of some of the military camps at the side before letting Ye Feng rest. Now, it was proven that the General Shen was probably innocent.
His gaze was very long, as if he could see the scenery outside the window. As he thought of something, the smile on his face softened.
He thought to himself, if Shen Qingwan knew about this news, who knows what kind of reaction she would have?
For some reason, his heart began to look forward to it.
