Chapter 279 Sudden News

The rumor that the current emperor's first wife was an evil spirit was widely spread in Kyoto, but it came to an abrupt end when the emperor announced that his wife had passed away due to illness.

The bloody storm in the court regarding the establishment of the queen disappeared with the disappearance of Chen Shiyi.

Your Majesty has suspended court for three days for this reason.

In the Kunning Palace, the finely crafted top-grade phoenix robe was not worn by Chen Shiyi after all.

Wen Zhiheng was in the court. After hearing the news, he felt inexplicably sad.

Even though he knew clearly that she had already gone to Wonju.

The open and secret struggles in the court eventually hurt her.

The one who died was Chen Shiyi, when she returns, who will she be?

Once upon a time, she was so resistant to becoming someone else, but in the end, she still came to this step.

She was unwilling to do this for herself, but was willing to make changes for Pei Luoshu.

In the end, I was the one who fell behind.

She is the type of person who cannot force herself or let herself be wronged.

Now, for Pei Luoshu, she hid in the fireworks and hid everywhere.

In the end, he made her suffer just like he did.

Maybe, maybe…

To him, it was arsenic, but to Pei Luoshu, it was honey, and he enjoyed it very much...

He lowered his head and sighed softly.

There is rain in the west, sunshine in the east, and a colorful rainbow in the middle.

Before that, it was Cui Yongan who sent a message to Chen Shiyi, saying that something happened in Wonju.

Later, Chen Shiyi asked Bo Yuan what happened in Yuanzhou.

As a result, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.

Even Fuda was confused.

"There is nothing wrong in Wonju. Where did you get the news?"

Chen Shiyi was silent for a moment.

"I didn't think much about it at the time because I was in Wonju. Now that I think about it carefully, how could Cui Yongan pass on the news from Wonju to me? Isn't this very strange?"

Bo Yuan analyzed from the side.

"Boss, the news reached General Cui, which is enough to prove that he must know you and is particularly familiar with you."

Chen Shiyi looked through the account book in his hand with a frown on his face.

Someone familiar?

Everyone who knew her knew that she married Pei Luoshu and entered the palace.

In other words, he had no other way but to find Cui Yongan.

Is he avoiding someone?

Just to send the message to my own hands.

The news that came through only said that something happened in Yuanzhou, so the person who sent the news must be from Yuanzhou.

Bo Yuan and the others denied sending the message to themselves.

Chen Shiyi's eyes suddenly lit up.

Is it him?

Chen Shiyi led Fu Daguai into a small alley in the city, stopped in front of a tall courtyard, and rang the copper ring.

After the door opened, a servant came out.

"Who are you?"

"Go and tell your master that Bo Yuan is here."

After a while, the servant invited them in.

Chen Shiyi laughed when he saw the person lying on the rocking chair.

"You were the one who sent the news from Wonju, right?"

The rocking chair stopped instantly and Shen Wuyang stood up immediately.

"Mr. Chen, you, you popped out from that corner?"

Shen Wuyang looked around Chen Shiyi.

She was wearing a green shirt, a green jade pin in her hair, and a silk ribbon floating behind her head, looking like a young gentleman.

"Why are you dressed like this? If I wasn't so familiar with your voice, I wouldn't be able to recognize you."

Chen Shiyi found a chair and sat down.

"Why did you send the message to Cui Yongan?"

Shen Wuyang felt very sad when he talked about this.

"I really had nowhere to turn. You sent Fu Daboyuan and the others back to Yuanzhou, and I couldn't find any contact with you in Kyoto. But I couldn't let others know about this, and it was urgent. Later, my informant in Kyoto told me that you had a good relationship with Prime Minister Mo's daughter, so I passed the news to her."

Chen Shiyi was very confused after hearing the twists and turns.

"Shen Wuyang, do you and I have such a deep friendship?"

Shen Wuyang chuckled twice.

"Of course there is. There is a deep blood feud between us. After all, it was me who burned down your Qinyunlou."

Chen Shiyi's face was stern.

"How dare you mention this?"

Shen Wuyang waved his hands.

"The message I sent you is really related to this matter."

"What does it matter?"

"Didn't you always ask me to compensate you for Qinyunlou?"

"Well, you haven't done anything yet, have you?"

"Now I can lose."

After hearing what Shen Wuyang said, Chen Shiyi's eyes showed a hint of doubt.

"What did Uncle Nine leave behind for you?"

Shen Wuyang looked flattering.

"The boss is really smart."

Wonju is a really big place. If it weren't for the endless hills and rugged mountain roads, such a large place would definitely be the first choice for the powerful and wealthy to divide up their land.

"How far?"

"Just ride your horse across the hills and you'll get there."

Chen Shiyi saw that they would definitely not be able to reach the destination today.

There were few people in the mountains and forests, and they searched for a long time before they found a small village, where they stayed for one night.

"What on earth is this? Why is it so secretive?"

Shen Wuyang said helplessly.

"I want to walk the normal way, but now I can't do that?"

Chen Shiyi sneered.

"Shen Wuyang, I still don't know what you are up to. You must have messed up something, so you came to me to take the blame."

Shen Wuyang immediately said seriously.

"Really not, Mr. Chen, am I that kind of person?"

"Why aren't you that kind of person? Otherwise, what kind of person are you supposed to be? A gentleman? A passionate husband?..."

"Hey, hey, just two words are enough!"

Fuda, who had been drinking water from a bottle nearby, suddenly felt his ears pricked up.

"Let's go quickly, a large number of people are coming."

The two people who were arguing just now suddenly became alert.

Several people mounted their horses and rushed forward.

"Shen Wuyang, what on earth is going on?"

"Mr. Chen, I am also following the letter that Uncle Ninth Prince left me. Those people are the ones I told you about before. They are a very difficult matter."

The three of them were very good at fighting, and Fu Da was good at hiding his tracks, so they were able to get rid of those people.

After groping for a long time in the dark, I finally arrived at the place Shen Wuyang mentioned at dawn.

Chen Shiyi followed Shen Wuyang, pushed aside the thick thorns, and reached the top of a mountain. After pushing aside the last layer of bushes that blocked the view, the scenery in front of him suddenly opened up.

At the foot of the mountain, there is a vast expanse of black land. On the black land, there are porters who are swaying with water baskets on their shoulders. They swing the water in their baskets to their heart's content, filling the black land with sea water.

Not far away, there are rows of sheds covered with black tarpaulins. Beyond them, there are endless rows of white sheds, exposed to the sun.

Chen Shiyi had a terrible idea in his mind.

"Is this sea salt?"
