Chapter 198 A Signal

Sheng Changlin took Hu Xueying away for several days.

After five days, Hu Xueying hadn't come back yet.

"I began to feel that it might be true that I guessed that Hu Xueying was quietly murdered and thrown away by Sheng Changlin. It's been five days, and Hu Xueying hasn't come back. Even many servants in Sheng's mansion have started to secretly discuss this matter."

"What was it talking about?"

Nanci curled his lips: "What else can we talk about? It's because you cried in front of Sheng Changlin that day that you fell into Yemei's illusion, and you also saw Jiu Yiniang who had disappeared for more than two years in the illusion. Then Sheng Changlin became angry Go straight to Hu Xueying..."

"Therefore, there are rumors in the government that Hu Xueying was the one who killed Jiu Yiniang and trapped you in the same way to kill you. Because Sheng Changlin knew about this, Hu Xueying was secretly dealt with."

Sheng Yege calmly said, "I have to say, these rumors, to a certain extent, indeed guessed the truth of the matter."

Nanci rolled his eyes: "There are really few people who want to make a move about the brothel casino or something. It's been several days, and there is no news."

Sheng Yege hummed, but was not in a hurry.

"However, since you said before that the brothel casino is the place with the most news and information, so I have been secretly hiding in these places to inquire about the news recently, and it really allowed me to inquire about a lot of news."

Nan Ci raised his head slightly: "Although most of the information I inquired is from the court, I think it is still useful."

"By the way, those court ministers really like to talk about things in the brothel, talk about something, and then find a girl to sleep with each other, tsk..."

Sheng Yege took a look at Nan Ci: "You went to the brothel, did you really just go to find out the news?"

"Huh?" Nan Ci was a little dazed: "Otherwise?"

Just after asking, Nan Ci reacted: "Could it be possible that I can still see the girl inside? Or do you think I'm going to see the live erotic palace?"

Seeing Sheng Yege's silence, Nanci was even more annoyed: "Am I the one? How many of the women in the brothels are prettier than me? Those men who go shopping in the brothels don't have a figure or appearance that makes me think Those who can see well, look at them, they are simply hot eyes."

"Okay." Sheng Yege took a look at Nan Ci, but maybe it was as Nan Ci said, those brothel girls, I'm afraid there are really few who can compare to Nan Ci in appearance.

"So, what have you found out?"

When Nanci heard Sheng Yege ask about this, his face became a little better: "I heard that the emperor has dealt with many officials in the court recently, secretly dealt with some, and demoted many officials."

"Oh?" Sheng Yege squinted his eyes. The change of officials in the DPRK and China is not a trivial matter. If what Nanci said is true, then it will be interesting.

"Did those DPRK and Chinese officials say why?"

"Because many of them were dealt with secretly, and An was not even charged with a crime, so it's hard to say that they were all dealt with and demoted for one reason. But according to the analysis of those officials, it should be due to forming a party for personal gain."

"Forming a party for personal gain?"

Nan Ci nodded: "I listened to those officials. Those who were punished and demoted were mostly close to the princes and princes."

"Those officials are all in danger, afraid that they will be the next one to be quietly dealt with."

Sheng Yege took a few steps back and forth in the illusion, the current emperor is in his prime, and several princes have already grown up.

At this time, those who are kings are most worried about their children seizing the throne, so most of them will try their best to suppress the power in the hands of those princes.

And the prince wins over the courtiers and colludes secretly, which is even more taboo for the emperor.

So before, she was a little puzzled for a while, why Sheng Changlin had already stood up so early and put Sheng Zichen next to the prince, which was almost to support the prince on the surface.

If Dijun cares about these things, then Sheng Changlin must be a thorn in Dijun's side.

Sheng Changlin's ability to get to this position must not be just due to inheriting from his father's generation, nor is it just due to luck.

He must have his considerations.

Moreover, the emperor was secretly liquidating the affairs of the officials who were closer to the prince. Sheng Changlin, as the head of all officials, could not have known about it.

Sheng Yege lowered his eyes, hiding the light in his eyes.

It's just that it doesn't matter whether Sheng Changlin knows it or not, but she can use this opportunity to show off her edge in front of Sheng Changlin.

Sheng Yege raised his eyes: "The day before yesterday, did Concubine Lan Gui send someone to invite me into the palace tomorrow?"

"Yes." Nan Ci glanced at Sheng Yege strangely: "Although your memory is not very good, you can't forget such important things, right?"

"I didn't forget, just to make sure."

On the second day, Sheng Yege entered the palace early in the morning.

Concubine Lan Gui didn't have anything important to call Sheng Yege into the palace, she just talked and gave some rewards, then let Sheng Yege go back to the palace.

Upon returning to Sheng Mansion, Sheng Yege went directly to the main courtyard.

Seeing Sheng Yege coming in, Sheng Changlin frowned subconsciously, but he seemed to remember something, and when she waited for her to salute and get up, he asked aloud: "You just came back from the palace? You are going to the palace today Have you greeted Concubine Lan Gui?"

"Yes."

"What's wrong? What did Concubine Lan Gui tell you?"

Sheng Yege nodded: "The imperial concubine is actually just chatting with her daughter, but the daughter knows something from the gossip of the imperial concubine and empress. I think she should come and report to her father."

"Oh?" Sheng Changlin said with a casual expression, "The imperial concubine, what did you say to me?"

"Actually, it's just some insignificant things, such as the newcomers in the palace recently, who is the most favored, and who is not favored."

"It's just that the imperial concubine mentioned that His Majesty has not been in the palace of the empress and concubine Xian for several days."

"The imperial concubine said that it was probably because His Royal Highness the crown prince and the second prince had gotten closer to the court officials without permission. The emperor was furious and did not go to the palace of the empress and concubine Xian. Maybe it was a signal."

Sheng Changlin frowned: "What signal?"

"It's a signal that the emperor doesn't like the prince's collusion with the courtiers in private. My daughter also heard that recently, many officials in the court were punished and demoted because they got close to the prince."

Sheng Changlin looked deeply at Sheng Yege: "So?"

Sheng Yege raised his eyes: "Father, Zi Rui, you are still in the East Palace."

"And before that, Zi Rui has been staying with His Highness the Crown Prince, and has been very close to His Highness. My daughter is just worried that this matter will implicate Daddy and Zi Rui."
