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

Chapter 686 Win people’s hearts

After the two of them were polite, Yao Shu continued and said: "Actually, there is something I need your help with. The purpose of all the things we have done this time is to defeat the Minister of Rites in one fell swoop."

Having said this, Yao Shu looked tentatively at Mr. Xingbu.

"I wonder what the adults think?"

Most people would not dare to take the initiative to confront the Minister of Rites. After all, the Minister of Rites was so powerful that even the emperor would be afraid of him, let alone an ordinary minister.

Seeing the Master of the Ministry of Justice in front of him hesitate again and again, Yao Shu also responded with understanding: "I know that you cannot make a decision in your heart. This matter is of great importance and may affect your family and future career. I hope. Your Excellency can make a decision after careful consideration."

Yao Shu gives everyone an appropriate opportunity so that they can be fully prepared.

No matter what she does, she respects everyone's choice. After all, they are doing big things now, which cannot be easily summarized in one or two sentences.

After Yao Shu finished speaking, she looked at Mr. Xingbu quietly. It was obvious that Mr. Xingbu was indeed facing a choice and thinking.

After a moment, Mr. Xing Bu spoke in a low voice: "I believe that Madam can definitely seek justice for us. No matter what Madam wants to do, I will firmly follow her."

"There is no such thing as following. It's just that we fight against the Minister of Rites together."

Mr. Xingbu nodded seriously and whispered in agreement: "If Madam has any ideas, you can communicate with me at any time."

"By the way, there is one thing I hope you can stay at."

After Yao Shu finished speaking, she pointed to the door behind the master.

Mr. Xingbu turned his head with some doubts and saw the princess slowly coming here.

His eyes suddenly filled with tears, and he didn't know what to say.

He hesitated and said, "Why is the princess here?"

The princess lowered her eyes slightly and smiled, and said in a low voice: "That day I pretended to be Miss Qing'er to talk to you, and I was deeply touched after hearing what you said. I know that you have always felt guilty about my mother. , but that was just what happened back then. I hope that my uncle will never be unhappy or resentful about this matter in the future."

When Master Xingbu heard this, he shook his head silently: "That's not what I meant. The reason why I entered the Xingbu was because I wanted to rehabilitate my family. But so much time has passed, but I have not found the memory of that year. Any clues about this."

"How do you know what happened back then?" The princess couldn't help but ask.

According to Mr. Xingbu, he should have run away secretly and did not see the scene of his family being exterminated.

But at this moment, he has solid evidence to believe that someone deliberately framed them, which will inevitably make people a little suspicious.

What's more, the Minister of Punishment was still young at that time and had no contact with what happened in the family. What he knows now is just from other people's mouths. What kind of thoughts did the person who told him this matter tell everything in full?

All this made Yao Shu feel particularly confused, and even the princess couldn't help but ask.

Seeing that everyone present was a little confused, Mr. Xingbu also shook his head gently.

"I can't remember the appearance of that person now, but it was that person who told me what happened, so I can know it so clearly. After telling me everything, the person gave me a note with the following A pattern. He told me that as long as I look for someone with this pattern in the future, he will be able to help me."

According to Mr. Xingbu's recollection, he searched many places but did not see where the pattern was.

He often wondered whether the other party had deliberately given him a false pattern in order to give him a piece of faith.

Yao Shu thought of the mysterious pattern on her token and couldn't help but her eyes lit up: "I wonder if that pattern still exists?"

"I have always kept that note safe, but it is at my home now and I do not take it with me. When I return to the capital someday, I will definitely give the note to the princess and Mrs. Shen for review." Mr. Xingbu also took it with him. A little annoyed, he couldn't help but sigh.

In fact, after so many years, he has never thought about this matter again.

He no longer has hope for what happened back then. After all, he alone has no way to rectify this matter.

"It doesn't matter, there is a long way to go. As long as we can bring people back to the capital safely now and ensure that Li Sheng is not killed on the way." Yao Shu's biggest worry is that someone will attack Li Sheng on the way.

They could not guarantee whether they could bring Li Sheng back to the capital safely. After all, the power of the Minister of Rites was everywhere and could give them a heavy blow at any time.

If the Minister of Rites became angry and started to fight back with all his strength, no one in the Shen family would be his opponent.

Thinking of this, she sighed softly, and for a moment she didn't know what to say.

Yao Shu did not tell everyone what he discovered about the secret guards. He kept it hidden in his heart.

If one day, as he thought, it was Prince Jing and the Minister of Rites who colluded together, others could be unaware of it and not be implicated.

Seeing that the princess and Yao Shu were both safe and sound, the soldiers in the army breathed a sigh of relief.

When the general told them everything in detail, the soldiers immediately realized how much contribution Yao Shu and others had made.

As time passed by, it was almost time to return.

After the emperor's decree, everyone in the Shen family was returned to the capital for investigation. In this way, Shen Fugui no longer has to go to the Western Regions to serve, but can return to the capital to rest for a while.

Yao Shu did not tell Ning Yuanhou and Prince Jing about this matter, but wanted to test it carefully after returning to the capital.

After making sure that there is nothing wrong with the two of them, tell them exactly what happened here.

Before leaving, Li Chen reluctantly glanced at the military camp and didn't know what to say for a while.

Yao Shu knew that he still couldn't forget about joining the army, so she comforted him softly: "The man has his ambitions in all directions, don't be blinded by things in the army. Let's not talk about whether your physique can withstand such high-intensity training. , maybe you may be more suitable to carve out a world for yourself in the officialdom?"

Hearing this, Li Chen lowered his eyes and chuckled.
