Perhaps Master Hu is not yet a close confidant of the Minister of Rites, so he does not attach great importance to his existence. It is very possible that Mr. Hu is just a cover, and the real person who followed is still in the dark.

Li Chen must find the person behind it immediately, otherwise everyone will be in danger.

The matter was urgent and he didn't have time to find Shen Qiu and tell him about it.

He nodded seriously, then looked at Mr. Hu and said, "Of course, what are your plans now?"

"That's it..." Mr. Hu was about to speak when suddenly Sun Qing and Shen Jian'an slowly walked over and told him to shut up.

Li Chen also nodded understandingly and did not continue to ask.

Seeing Li Chen walking so close to Mr. Hu, Shen Jianan snorted coldly: "I said he is not a good person, and now it seems that he is right. Being so close to Mr. Hu, it seems that the Minister of Rites is really letting him He's been working undercover with us."

"No, look at Master Shen's gestures."

Sun Qing could tell at a glance that Li Chen deliberately approached Mr. Hu in order to stabilize him.

Shen Jian'an felt jealous and subconsciously said, "What's so impressive about this?"

In fact, after spending so many days together, Shen Jian'an felt a sense of crisis. He saw that Li Chen and Sun Qing often dealt with foreign enemies together, and he naturally felt uncomfortable.

The two of them fight side by side, more like a pair of true lovers.

Shen Jian'an couldn't help but test how much Sun Qing missed Li Chen, so he curiously asked: "Miss Qing'er, why do you believe in Li Chen so much? What should we do if he is really not a good person?"

"If he was really the person sent here by the Minister of Rites, he should have leaked everything about us by now. Along the way, he had thousands of opportunities to solve us, but every time he took risks to save us. Leave us alone. Don't you feel any of this?" Sun Qing turned around subconsciously and asked.

Hearing this, Shen Jianan was speechless for a moment.

He had to admit that Li Chen did help the Shen family a lot. Along the way, without Li Chen, the Shen family might have encountered more troubles.

But when he thought about Li Chen and Sun Qing getting along so closely, he couldn't help but feel jealous.

He snorted coldly and said no more words.

Sun Qing knew what he was thinking, so he smiled helplessly, and then said, "Actually, you don't need to be too nervous. Mr. Li and I are at best good friends who fight side by side."

"Good friends?" Shen Jian'an didn't react for a moment. He didn't know how to respond, so he could only say angrily, "What good friends? How can there be real good friends in the world..."

Halfway through his words, he suddenly stopped and asked in disbelief: "Good friend?"

He was stunned for a moment, then immediately smiled: "Okay, okay, you are good friends."

The reason why Shen Jian'an was happy was not because Sun Qing took the initiative to say that she and Li Chen were good friends, but because she took the initiative to explain her relationship with Li Chen. It shows that Sun Qing also cares about his own feelings, so he said such a sentence specifically.

He scratched his head in embarrassment: "Actually, I don't doubt your intentions, it's just..."

"Shhh."

Sun Qing suddenly made a silence gesture, and then said in a low voice: "I understand, you don't need to explain."

Then, she put the handkerchief she had sewn herself into Shen Jianan's hand and whispered, "This is for you."

After saying that, he turned around and left a little shyly.

This appearance made Shen Jian'an's heart tremble. He raised a smile on his lips and stared blankly at her back.

"Stupefied?" Shen Bei came over and said in a low voice.

This sound made Shen Jian'an tremble. He looked at Shen Bei angrily: "What do you know?"

"I'm someone who has been here before." Shen Bei couldn't help but chuckle and patted his shoulder, "It doesn't matter. When you two get together in the future, I will ask your parents to help you propose marriage as soon as possible."

"What are you talking about? There's no rush for this matter." Shen Jianan blushed and waved his hand.

Suddenly, thick smoke burst out of the tent.

Everyone present could not help but panic. They subconsciously looked for water sources to prepare to put out the fire.

Seeing the fire getting bigger and bigger, some people began to realize that this was the place where the coffins of the princess and Yao Shu were placed.

When the fire finally went out, the two temporary coffins were already smoldering and smoldering.

General Ling was extremely angry and was about to ask what happened. Shen Qiu and Li Chen immediately came to his side and whispered to dissuade him.

"General, there is something fishy about this matter. It's better not to get angry easily. And there is one thing we should pay attention to. If there is something wrong with the remains of the princess and Mrs. Shen, I'm afraid it will be hard for the emperor to explain."

"Come here, open the coffin immediately and conduct an autopsy." General Ling was also very anxious and said immediately.

After hearing this, Shen Qiu became extremely anxious and quickly knelt down in front of him: "General, please be clear. If the coffin is opened for autopsy now, my mother may not be able to rest in peace."

"Yeah, there's no reason to open the coffin. I think the coffin is just a little burnt on the outside, but it's not damaged. There must be no problem inside. It's better not to act rashly." Other soldiers agreed.

Seeing more and more people objecting, Mr. Hu immediately came to the court officials: "Sir, this matter is of great importance. After all, this is the princess's body. If something goes wrong, it will be transported back to the capital. , The Emperor is probably going to be angry."

"This..." The official frowned, and he was completely undecided.

He didn't want to lose his reputation, but he also didn't want to violate his conscience.

Seeing the time passing by, General Ling and the officials could not make a decision. In the end, Li Chen couldn't bear it anymore and said, "In this case, it is better to open the coffin and conduct an autopsy."

Master Hu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and immediately echoed: "Yes, opening the coffin and conducting an autopsy can give us an idea. If something really goes wrong with the princess, we only need to report it to the emperor truthfully. I’m sure the emperor won’t say anything.”

"In that case, let's do as you say."

The official waved his hand.

General Ling was thinking of something else, but was stopped by Shen Qiu.

When the first coffin was opened, Yao Shu was lying inside with a calm expression, as if she had just fallen asleep.

Mr. Hu's heart trembled and he subconsciously stepped forward.

Isn't it said that he was poisoned to death? Doesn't this look like he was poisoned?

He calmed down, walked forward inadvertently, then pretended to trip, fell directly next to the coffin, and stretched out his hand.

"Master Hu!"
