There is no turning back when the bow is opened, and this matter is far from over.

The omission of food and grass, smuggling of arms, these matters are of great importance, and they will never end with Xu Huaili's death.

Shen Yixuan lay quietly beside him, and fell asleep peacefully.Like a defenseless child, Yan Yunyou suddenly felt deeply guilty.

He betrayed him once, that time he not only stole the list, but also almost killed Shen Yixuan.But Shen Yixuan ignored the previous suspicions, and came to Jiangnan again as before.

He betrayed him again today, this time killing two people, the first time in his life.

Yan Yunyou recalled what Sang Ning said before, that she really shouldn't spend her whole life because of that incident.

He slowly clenched Shen Yixuan's hand, the injury on his arm was still aching, but everything seemed not so important anymore.

It seems that everything is not as important as this person in front of him.

If possible, stay with him in the future.At this moment, Yan Yunyou suddenly had such a thought in his heart.

As the night deepened, Shen Yixuan was already fast asleep.His hands were still on Yan Yunyou's waist, Yan Yunyou closed her eyes in peace, as if a heavy burden had been let go of her heart, and it was much lighter.

Shen Yixuan stayed here overnight, but the prison was lively all night.

Even if Shen Yixuan did not go for the interrogation, Chen Yuan would still be there.Everyone knows the matter of striking while the iron is hot, not to mention the long nights and dreams, if it is not dealt with earlier, problems will inevitably arise.

The next morning, Shen Yixuan woke up very early.With the evidence in hand and the beauty in her arms, she is really proud of herself.

But it's autumn now, and Shen Yixuan doesn't seem to be very proud.He was not satisfied with how he handled this matter, it was his own negligence, he only cared about Yan Yunyou and ignored Xu Huaili.

But who will kill him?

Shen Yixuan couldn't figure it out.

Or maybe it's because Xu Huaili offended many people on weekdays, and it's not necessarily the case that he provokes people to seek revenge.

When Shen Yixuan woke up, Yan Yunyou was still sleeping.The long eyelashes are hanging down, looking very good-looking.

Yan Yunyou is very good-looking, Shen Yixuan has always known this.

Shen Yixuan didn't want to wake Yan Yunyou up, after all, he was still injured and needed to recuperate.

Shen Yixuan couldn't bear it, he hugged the person and lay down for a while, then pulled away gently, kissed Yan Yunyou's forehead, covered the quilt which was a bit empty due to the lack of one person, reluctantly put on his clothes and pushed the door away into prison.

Chen Yuan didn't sleep all night, and he didn't look very energetic.

The prison was dark and damp, and as soon as I entered, I could smell the smell of blood.Shen Yixuan frowned displeasedly, and asked casually: "How's the interrogation going?"

Chen Yuan bowed and replied: "His Royal Highness, these people are very stubborn. After the officials asked this night, they only said that it was an order from the superior, and they didn't know anything else."

Shen Yixuan stopped in his tracks and asked: "So this night, you didn't ask anything?"

Chen Yuan broke out in cold sweat instantly: "The lower officials are incompetent. It's not like they haven't recruited anything. These things have something to do with Qianji Pavilion, but there is only a problem with the branch in Jinling City, and everything else is normal."

Shen Yixuan then walked in: "Where are those officers and soldiers?"

Chen Yuan's voice gradually became a little lower: "They said that these were Xu Huaili's orders, and they acted on orders without knowing the inside story."

"I don't want to listen to what they say. I entrust you with the responsibility to see how capable you are and how much you can pry out. Xu Huaili is dead, and I will be preparing to return to Chang'an in two days. You have to let me see your ability, I can rest assured that I will hand over the prefect position to you, otherwise I will be the one who will be worried if there is another Xu Huaili." Shen Yixuan's face was already a little impatient.

Chen Yuan said submissively at the side: "Yes, yes, I understand."

It was quiet in the prison in the early morning, and it was a bit cold. The fire that had been burning all night was mixed with various smells, and the smell was very unpleasant.

A few people were locked up alone in several cells. In the rush last night, they didn't even have time to change their clothes. They were still wearing official uniforms.Xu Shi was tortured, his clothes were dirty and torn, and stained with blood.

"You are wearing these clothes, and you dare to fight my guards, you have so much courage." Shen Yixuan stood at the door of the prison, and said slowly: "Of course I will not come to investigate ordinary smuggling, but what you are smuggling is ordnance. This is a major event to punish the Nine Clans, and it is treason."

Those people finally looked a little flustered.

Shen Yixuan added another fire appropriately: "Some things are good for others and for yourself. Whether to redeem the merits or wait for me to follow the vine, you can decide for yourself."

After Shen Yixuan finished speaking, he turned around and walked cleanly.Chen Yuan followed him to send him out, Shen Yixuan said: "Master Chen, I will give you another half day, I want to see the testimony at noon."

"The next official will live up to His Highness's trust."

Shen Yixuan didn't go back to the house immediately.He sorted out the list Xu Huaili gave him. In fact, it doesn't matter if there are these testimonies. Many eyes watched what happened last night, and it is not something that group of people can deny.

The matter of smuggling can be big or small, but smuggling ordnance is absolutely certain.It's not just about money, it's about the military.

As long as it is checked layer by layer, this is definitely not as simple as collusion between officials and businessmen.Shen Yixuan was already sure of winning, on the one hand, he naturally couldn't rush this matter, on the other hand, he also wanted to see Chen Yuan's ability.

After being placed one way, naturally they will not be placed second.

You must not be indecisive in doing things. You just lost the list last time. This time, you must grasp it. You must not let the last mistake happen again.

Shen Yixuan sorted out the list on the table, and organized his thoughts. He must return to Chang'an City as soon as possible. After all, Jiangnan is just a small fish, and the real big fish is still hidden in the capital.

Zhou Yu is the prime minister, if he can be dragged into the water, it can be regarded as breaking Shen Yihan's right arm.

Shen Yixuan knew that something was going to happen to Zhou Yu ever since there was a problem with the grain and grass.

Whether it is buying and selling officials, or smuggling goods, it is a serious crime.What's more, there is also last year's disaster relief money and the military rations of the previous days.

Zhou Yu's appetite is too big, or Zhou Yu's people are too stupid.I only know how to stutter, and don't check whether I have the ability to digest.

Shen Yixuan has made up his mind, and this time he will return to the court to catch Zhou Yu by surprise.

The sun is getting higher and the breeze is blowing, but it is not too cold.

Shen Yixuan suddenly thought of Yan Yunyou, and how he was lying beside her in the morning.

My heart was almost filled by him, it was all him.

The prison was not too far from the Qin Mansion, and Shen Yixuan rode back to the mansion soon.

I don't know if the person is awake, Shen Yixuan thought, handed the horse to the attendant who came up, and went back to the house by himself.

The door of the room was closed tightly, Shen Yixuan was a little amused, this man has become lazy no matter what, he can't afford it at this hour.

Although he felt that it was getting late, Shen Yixuan pushed the door gently, for fear of disturbing the people inside.

Once inside, he froze again.

The bed was clean, the brocade quilt was folded and put aside, but Yan Yunyou was nowhere to be seen.

"Come on!"

The guards rushed over when they heard the voice: "Master."

Shen Yixuan pointed to the clean bed inside, and asked, "Where is Mr. Yan?"

"Returning to master, someone invited you out in the morning, saying that it was an old acquaintance, and wanted to catch up on the old days."
