Chapter 113: Better informed than the Heavenly Book, is this reasonable?

The eldest brother is worthy of being the pillar of the Shen family!

Clear head and clear thinking!

Shen Chaoyan listened to their conversation and silently asked the Heavenly Book: [Is it Sikong Yu who did it again this time? ]

Heavenly Book: [Yes, this time he found a helper who was the deputy lieutenant of the infantry, He Zhenghong. ]

He Zhenghong is He Yulin's biological father. Since Shen Chaoyan was selected to enter the palace, his relationship with the Shen family has gradually become distant.

He has been in the army longer than Shen Yushu, but the young man Shen Yushu is highly regarded by the emperor.

If Shen Yushu is allowed to gain a foothold in the barracks, he will never be able to make a name for himself in the future!

In addition, He Yulin not only lost his official position because of Shen Chaoyan, but also lost half of his life.

He Zhenghong now regards the Shen family as a thorn in his side.

Therefore, under the instruction of Sikong Yu, he secretly ordered his confidants to replace the batch of weapons that Shen Yushu was in charge of with inferior ones.

As long as the matter is exposed and traced to Shen Yushu, it will be a capital crime!

Unfortunately, He Zhenghong missed one point. Shen Yushu is meticulous and it is not easy to hide his tricks from him.

He Zhenghong was too impatient and left the broken ribbon, allowing Shen Yushu to discover the abnormality in advance.

Sikong Xun glanced at Shen Chaoyan, but said to Shen Yushu, "Shen Qing, you should secretly investigate the whereabouts of the military equipment first, and find it back as soon as possible. Don't make a fuss."

Following the clue of the lost military equipment, perhaps there will be a major discovery.

Upon hearing this, Shen Chaoyan immediately asked Tianshu: [Tianshu, where is the military equipment that was replaced now?]

Tianshu: [The military equipment was shipped out of Dongdaying last night, and it has been loaded and is ready to be shipped!]

Shen Chaoyan: [If we intercept it now, can we still stop it?]

Tianshu: [No hurry, the port is strictly checking the cargo, and they dare not act rashly at this time. He Zhenghong plans to use the gap between patrol changes at the port at midnight to transport the military equipment! 】

Shen Chaoyan:【Then I have to tell my elder brother the whereabouts of the weapons as soon as possible! 】

Before she could think of a suitable excuse, she heard Sikong Yan say to Shen Yushu, "Mr. Shen, I received news early this morning that several suspicious cargo ships were docked at the west pier of the city."

Shen Chaoyan: w(o)wHeavenly

Book: =(●● |||)

He is a paper man, but he is more informed than the Heavenly Book. Is this reasonable?

Shen Chaoyan despised:【You useless book, if the news is delayed a little longer, the weapons will be found back! 】

The Heavenly Book argued:【You can't blame me. This Heavenly Book is only responsible for protecting the host himself. As for Sikong Yu's murder of your elder brother, it was a reminder after the relevant plot was triggered. It's like the free gifts you give away when you sell things in your shop, and there is no after-sales service! Shen Chaoyan :

[He is good at making excuses!]

Shen Yushu and Sikong Yan have already discussed a countermeasure, "I will deploy it now, and we will definitely find the smuggled weapons intact!"

Sikong Yan nodded, "They want to push the responsibility to you, we can't let them get away with it."

Shen Yushu understood, "I will find a way to let them fight each other."

The next day, in the Jinluan Palace.

He Zhenghong reported the matter of the East Camp's weapons being swapped in front of all the officials, "Your Majesty, the loss of weapons can be a big or small matter. If the weapons are smuggled out of the capital by someone with ulterior motives to train private soldiers, it will definitely shake the foundation of our Great Xia Dynasty!"

His people had been guarding the dock yesterday, and they must have left the capital with several ships of weapons by now!

"Lord He, you are too kind! The stability of our Great Xia Dynasty depends on whether the people live and work in peace and contentment, whether the emperor is diligent and loves the people, and whether the officials are honest and upright. It cannot be determined by a few weapons."

Shen Yushu immediately walked out of the military officer team and bowed to the dragon throne from a distance. "Your Majesty, I noticed the loss of military equipment in the East Camp mentioned by Deputy Captain He last night, and I was just about to report it to Your Majesty!"

Seeing that Shen Yushu was calm and composed, He Zhenghong couldn't help but glance at Sikong Yu.

What happened?

The night before yesterday, they avoided Shen Yushu's actions. Could it be that Shen Yushu discovered the clues so quickly?

Sikong Yu glared at him and shook his head, signaling him not to look at him.

On the surface, they have no relationship, so He Zhenghong, you idiot, should not expose your true colors.

Besides, He Zhenghong was the one who made the substitution of military equipment, and now he showed a stupid expression in front of him, is he trying to shirk responsibility?

Moreover, they acted fast enough, the military equipment should have been sent out of the city by water long ago!

He Zhenghong thought he shook his head to mean that he didn't know what was going on, and he was immediately unsure.

If Shen Yushu really found out something wrong, what should he do?

He is just a man who follows orders, and with King Jing backing him up, it shouldn't be a big problem... right?

While He Zhenghong was daydreaming, he heard Sikong Yan on the dragon chair say to Shen Yushu, "General Shen, just tell me, I'm listening."

Shen Yushu glanced at He Zhenghong and said, "I intercepted a batch of military equipment at the dock last night. After inspection, it was the batch lost in the East Camp!"

What?

He Zhenghong and Sikong Yu's faces changed at the same time.

How is it possible?

Except for a few confidants, no one else knew their transportation route.

Where did Shen Yushu get the news from?

Could it be that there is a spy among the people they chose?

The two people looked different.

There was a gloomy look in Sikong Yu's eyes.

He chose the most trustworthy confidants on his side. If there is a problem, it must be He Zhenghong's problem.

Once he finds out that he made a mistake, Sikong Yu will naturally not let him go!

Sikong Yan nodded with satisfaction, "General Shen has always been efficient, I am very confident in you."

Shen Yushu bowed his hands humbly, "I dare not take credit for it. This time I was able to find the weapons in the first time, and I have to thank Lieutenant He for his great help!"

He Zhenghong didn't know why he suddenly brought it up. In shock, he looked at Sikong Yu reflexively, "Don't talk nonsense! I didn't! I am terrified!"

Sikong Yan curled his lips, "Deputy Captain He, there is no need to be humble. I know that you not only reported the loss of the weapons in the first place, but also sent people to intercept the cargo ship loaded with weapons together with General Shen. General Shen deserves credit for recovering the weapons, but you also deserve credit!"

Before he finished speaking, Sikong Yu's face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot.

He knew very well that Sikong Yan and Shen Yushu were playing a double game, but He Zhenghong was indeed suspicious!

Once the seeds of doubt are planted in one's heart, they will take root and sprout.

He Zhenghong was also confused at first.

However, he soon figured it out!

He and Shen Yushu were in opposing camps. Shen Yushu not only did not take credit for retrieving the weapons, but also pushed the credit to him. He simply wanted to alienate him from King Jing and put him in a position of disloyalty and injustice!

So, He Zhenghong hurried to distance himself from him, "Your Majesty, I am stupid, General Shen is young and promising, and all the credit this time is his!"

"It seems that Lieutenant He admires General Shen's talent as much as I do. That's just as Lieutenant He wishes. This time, General Shen has recovered the weapons and will be rewarded with 500 taels of silver, 20 pieces of colorful silk, and 20 acres of good land!"

He Zhenghong: ???

As he wishes?

He didn't say anything, and didn't think anything!

Before he could express his opinion, Shen Yushu had already knelt down to express his gratitude, "I thank you for your grace!"
