Dressed as an old woman, I carry the system and my son to escape the famine

"So you are now representing the Minister of Rites himself?" Shen Fugui frowned and asked in a low voice.

Hearing this, the man was slightly startled and didn't know how to speak.

After a moment, he explained in a low voice: "That's not the case. I came here just to convey the Lord's will."

"In that case, please don't affect the Lord's judgment here." Shen Fugui spoke angrily in a low voice.

When he finished saying this, the man's expression immediately showed a hint of displeasure.

He nodded silently without saying anything.

Several people knew that the man was not someone to be trifled with, and they kept a careful eye on his whereabouts.

Seeing the envoys and generals discussing how to transport the coffin back to the capital in the tent, Mr. Hu was obviously a little anxious.

He kept circling around the two coffins and even wanted to talk to the soldiers guarding the coffins. It's a pity that the soldiers have already received the general's instructions and will not disclose any of them.

What's more, ordinary soldiers didn't know this plan.

Yao Shu specifically confessed that only those who can be trusted by Su Xing and herself can tell the whole story about this planned operation. If there is any mistake, the crime of deceiving the emperor by deceiving the superiors and concealing the truth from the subordinates will be punished by beheading.

Obviously, the Minister of Rites did not believe the news that the princess and Yao Shu had died so easily.

Li Chen quietly observed Master Hu not far away, and after a moment he said, "Master Hu looks a little anxious. I wonder what the reason is?"

"I just want to see how the princess is doing." Mr. Hu didn't expect that he would still be stared at by Li Chen.

He pretended to be calm and nodded, then said, "Why does the eldest young master appear here?"

"Didn't my father tell you that I went to the Western Regions with the Shen family?" Li Chen asked knowingly.

Mr. Hu didn't know what to say for a moment, and nodded subconsciously: "Of course... I said it. It's just that I thought the eldest son had arrived in the Western Region, but I didn't expect that he was still in the military camp."

"The Shen family and I have been moving forward together. Now that the Shen family is in such a situation, it is logical that they need help. Mr. Hu came suddenly this time. Is there anything from my father?"

Master Hu was obviously stunned when he heard this.

Obviously, the Minister of Rites had not given any instructions before coming.

Mr. Hu didn't know what the relationship between the Minister of Rites and Li Chen was. In the eyes of outsiders, the Minister of Rites doted on his younger son so much that he would definitely not neglect his eldest son.

He tentatively asked: "What news do you want to hear about, the eldest son?"

"Could it be that my father brought me a lot of news?" Li Chen smiled, obviously trying to set a trap for Master Hu.

Mr. Hu was previously a staff member of the Minister of Rites, but later he was good at flattering, so he was recommended by the Minister of Rites and became a court official.

It's just that the Ministry of Rites is short of manpower, so we can only go to the Ministry of Rites.

In fact, according to the original plan of the Minister of Rites, he was assigned to other departments, which would make it easier for him to place more informants in the future and take charge of the political situation of the court.

However, although Mr. Hu did not go to other departments, it was still a peace of mind for the Minister of Rites. After all, he had an extra helper in the court.

At this time, Master Hu had a worried look on his face. He pondered for a moment and couldn't help but say: "Actually, this matter cannot be entirely blamed on the Minister of Rites. It may be that the affairs in the court are too complicated, so that I forgot about it."

"So my father didn't bring anything here?" Li Chen frowned and asked again.

Mr. Hu didn't know how to answer at all. He was so anxious that he was sweating.

After a moment, he couldn't help but said: "Young Master, please spare me. I'm just an errand boy and I don't know anything."

"Don't you have a message for my little brother?"

Only then did Li Chen get to the point.

He knew that his younger brother must be here, and the god in the Turks' mouth might be referring to him.

It's just that I'm not sure at the moment, so I start testing in this way.

Mr. Hu's eyes lit up and he immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "It turns out that the eldest son knows about this, so I don't have to continue pretending. In fact, it is very simple. There are only four words, called 'turning falsehood into truth', but the specific meaning , I don’t know either. If the eldest young master sees the young master, he must tell the young master this information. "

Mr. Hu said seriously.

Li Chen nodded, hiding the suspicion in his eyes, and nodded gently after a moment: "Of course, please don't worry, Mr. Hu, I will naturally bring him."

With these words, Mr. Hu felt at ease.

He has now acquiesced that Li Chen is one of his own, and he is much more relaxed.

Looking at Mr. Hu's leaving figure, the smile on Li Chen's lips disappeared.

Fortunately, Mr. Hu is stupid, otherwise he would not have passed on the news so easily.

The meaning of "turning falsehood into truth" may mean that the Minister of Rites suspected that something was strange this time, so he was ready to execute the princess immediately even if she was still alive.

Realizing this, Li Chen's heart trembled.

He immediately ran to find the princess and wanted to tell her about this.

Just when he was about to go find the princess, Mr. Hu suddenly stopped him and said in a panic: "Young Master, I wonder if I can take a step to speak?"

"What's wrong?" Li Chen frowned and immediately realized that something was wrong.

He pretended to have nothing and strode to his side.

"I always feel that the princess and Mrs. Shen are not really dead. I wonder if you can help me check it out?" Mr. Hu asked cautiously.

These words made Li Chen not know how to answer for a while. Although he wanted to get more information from Mr. Hu, keeping the whole matter confidential was still very important.

Thinking of this, he was ready to use an excuse to deal with it.

"After all, General Ling sent someone to guard it. Naturally, I can't open it to check. And if it really is a princess inside, wouldn't it be an unjust act for me to do so?" Li Chen frowned, obviously because of this. Worried about this matter.

Mr. Hu nodded and agreed: "That's true. If that's the case, then I'll find a reason to check it out on my own. I just don't know if the eldest son can help me. I'm afraid I can't handle it alone."

Li Chen subconsciously looked around him and found that no one was there.

Logically speaking, the Minister of Rites is always very cautious in doing things, so it is naturally impossible to send him here alone.
