"Yes, Your Majesty."

Emperor Xuande ordered that Shen Yan could not refuse.

Not only can she not refuse, but she must also win the game and come back. Otherwise, Ning Zhengxun and the others will definitely be angry.

It is said that if He Wentang leads the team to participate, they will definitely win the game.

Therefore, for the sake of his own face and for Emperor Xuande's trust in him, Shen Yan must move forward.

"Princess Youning, can you do it?" Ning Zhengxun's eyes were unkind.

Shen Yan raised her eyebrows, "Ning Guogong, you can give it a try!"

"What's the point of competing with me, Princess Youning? I'm a warrior and a native of Great Qin. If you beat me, you won't be able to bring any glory to Great Qin."

Ning Zhengxun had already heard about Shen Yan playing chess in the academy. Of course he didn't believe that Shen Yan was that good, but no matter whether Shen Yan was good or not, he didn't want Shen Yan to compete.

"If Princess Youning is really capable, she will bring glory back to Da Qin and the imperial court."

Ning Zhengxun looked sarcastic.

"Ning Guogong, Jiuzhou is so big and there are so many contestants. The most important thing in the competition is participation. Whoever can guarantee that he will win will definitely win."

A cold voice suddenly sounded. Everyone looked for the voice and saw that it was Leng Yuting who had been silent.

All eyes were focused on Leng Yuting. He looked magnanimous and serious, "Now that the game is about to begin, I just hope that everyone will not say these words that are not conducive to unity."

Ning Zhengxun looked at Leng Yuting with a cold expression, "Lord Leng is really interested!"

Leng Yuting gave Ning Zhengxun a cold look and said nothing, but his gaze was enough to cut Ning Zhengxun into pieces with a thousand knives.

Ning Zhengxun looked away, not daring to look directly at Leng Yuting.

Shen Yan looked at Ning Zhengxun and then at Leng Yuting, his eyes slightly cold. These two people are interesting!

"You Ning, you can safely lead the team to the competition. No matter you win or lose, I will congratulate you. As the leader of the Great Qin team, your level is secondary, and your character is the most important. If you send a person with bad morals, wouldn't it mean that all the people of Kyushu will be punished? The country is laughing at me and there is no one in Qin?"

Emperor Xuande looked majestic and domineering.

There was silence in the hall, and no one raised any objections.

Shen Yan respectfully replied, "Yes, I obey your order."

Emperor Xuande looked at He Qianqian and continued to give the order, "He Qianqian, you assassinated King Ling and should have been executed in Ling Chi! If I want you to take the initiative to admit your mistake, I will leave your body intact and allow you to say goodbye to your family and take your own life!" Xuande Imperial way.

He Qianqian's body swayed, her face as white as a piece of paper. Her sweet dream finally came to nothing, and even cost her her life.

In this game, no one is spared.

She cannot escape the death penalty!

She thought she could keep her father's job as a team leader and that the glory of He Mansion would last forever.

In the end, it all came to nothing.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." He Qianqian kowtowed and thanked Emperor Xuande for letting her family go.

If her family members were killed, she would not be able to rest in peace.

After He Qianqian was found guilty, Emperor Xuande ordered the two people who set the fire to be executed directly.

This matter has come to an end here, but it is far from over.

Emperor Xuande announced his withdrawal from the court, and everyone left.

Shen Yan followed Emperor Xuande to the imperial study, while Xie Huaijing went to the army.

"You Ning, how did my performance go?" Emperor Xuande smiled with a smile on his face, changing from his majestic and cold expression.

"They all believed the emperor's words," Shen Yan said.

"Fortunately, you informed me in advance, so we can have a good show today." Emperor Xuande said with a smile.

After Shen Yan and Xie Huaijing interrogated He Qianqian last night, they coerced and induced her to confess Yan Zhaoyue in order to save her family.

That's why He Qianqian confessed to Yan Zhaoyue without hesitation just now in the Qiankun Hall.

It was also because of her willingness to cooperate that she got to see her family for the last time.

Shen Yan and Xie Huaijing discussed and decided to report the matter to Emperor Xuande first and ask Emperor Xuande to perform a play.

Dealing with Yan Zhaoyue is not enough, what needs to be dealt with is the Shangshu Mansion behind her.

The courtiers didn't know that the scene in the Qiankun Palace was just a show.

"Your Majesty, I think you can make use of He Wentang." Shen Yan suggested.

"How does You Ning want to use He Wentang?" Emperor Xuande was curious.

"Your Majesty, even if hundreds of insects die, they will not die." Shen Yan's voice was cold, "The family has been running rampant for hundreds of years. Although Yan Chonghou was removed from the post of Minister today, his influence still exists and he will not eradicate the roots. , the spring breeze blows and grows again."

As one of the four major aristocratic families, the Yan family is powerful and has many followers. The four families and the aristocratic families are intricately intertwined and have complicated relationships.

Catch a family and let it be completely destroyed.

By then, the people below will be nothing more than a mob and will never be able to stir up big troubles.

Emperor Xuande's eyes darkened, and he understood what Shen Yan meant, "He Wentang is Yan Chonghou's wife-in-law, and it is indeed a good knife to kill him!"

He looked at Shen Yan and said, "This is feasible, you can do it yourself."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"In addition, Youning, the academy has lost its mountain chief. Please think about who is suitable to be the mountain chief." Emperor Xuande asked.

"I think Yan Qing is suitable."

Shen Yan looked calm, "Your Majesty, after Yan Qing became the Duke Protector, all the Duke Protector's houses left Yan Qing and the Duke's wife. There is no doubt about his loyalty to the Emperor. Moreover, Yan Qing is talented, dignified, and has a good reputation. Brave and resourceful, I think he is the best candidate to be the mountain leader."

Emperor Xuande nodded when he heard this, "You Ning really understands my heart best. He thinks the same as me, so the matter is settled."

"Yes, Your Majesty, I will retire first and go to He Mansion." Shen Yan said.

"Go." Emperor Xuande said.

After He Qianqian knew that her death was coming, she left the Qiankun Palace and couldn't wait to return home with He Wentang.

The father and daughter had only taken a few steps when they heard Yan Chonghou's voice from behind.

"He Wentang!"

He Wentang and He Qianqian paused and turned around, seeing Yan Chonghou and Yan Zhaoyue walking over.

"Bitch! You betrayed me!" Yan Zhaoyue slapped He Qianqian on the face.

She was pregnant, and the palace attendant only stood behind her, not escorting her.

He Qianqian smiled coldly and slapped Yan Zhaoyue with her backhand, "Are you innocent? You were the one who found me in the beginning. It was you who said that I looked similar to Shen Yan, and you wanted me to get close to Prince Ling. You were the one who took advantage of me. Kill me!"

She is about to die, and she is not afraid of anyone except her family.

"You deserve it! If you didn't have ambition or greed, how could you be used!" Yan Zhaoyue scolded.

"Okay, stop arguing!" Yan Zhong shouted sternly, "This time, none of us won!"

He approached He Wentang and lowered his voice to warn, "He Wentang, we are on the same boat, and Princess Youning is our common enemy. You have already lost a daughter. You don't want anything to happen to your other family members, right?"

He Wentang frowned, clenched his fists, and stared at Yan Chonghou.

Yan Chonghou smiled and said, "For the sake of us being a family, I kindly remind you that you should think about it when you go back."

At this time, the palace man urged, "This is the palace. If you have anything to say, you can talk about it when you get back. Let's go now!"

Yan Chonghou glanced at the palace man coldly. Although he was no longer in official position, his aura remained unchanged.

"It's true that a tiger has been bullied by a dog. Even a eunuch dares to urge me!"

The palace men hurriedly lowered their heads. They were not Shen Yan and they did not dare to confront Yan Chonghou head-on.

Moreover, Yan Chonghou only lost power temporarily. If he makes a comeback in the future, it will be easy to deal with young eunuchs like them.

"Humph!" Yan Chonghou snorted coldly and walked away.

The palace attendants sent Yan Zhaoyue back to the palace and announced an edict to abolish her position as princess and concubine.

The palace servant supervising He Qianqian also urged, "Miss He, don't make things difficult for us."

He Qianqian looked reluctant, but there was nothing she could do.

Going home earlier to say goodbye to your loved ones means dying earlier.
