In a restaurant next to the post station, Qin Shaoyou and Xue Lin were chatting and drinking like they did a few days ago.

Seeing Xue Lin's frowning and distressed face, Qin Shaoyou put down the wine glass in his hand, and said with a smile: "Brother Xue, what troubles have you encountered? You might as well tell me to make me happy."

"You just like to tease me."

Xue Lin pointed at Qin Shaoyou, shook his head and smiled wryly.

After getting along for a few days, he didn't fool around with Qin Shaoyou, but instead fell under Qin Shaoyou's clever tongue, not only treating Qin Shaoyou as his own, but also as a confidant.

At this moment, Xue Lin only thought that Qin Shaoyou was joking with him, and never thought that Qin Shaoyou might really want to hear about his difficulties so that he could be happy.

Putting down the wine glass, Xue Lin lowered his voice and said, "Brother Qin, don't tell others what I said to you, otherwise you and I will be punished."

Qin Shaoyou said solemnly: "Don't worry, Brother Xue, don't you still feel at ease with me? My mouth is notoriously tight, and I definitely don't say a word if I shouldn't say it."

"I definitely believe you." Xue Lin said, and even because of the effect of his tongue, he felt a little guilty about telling Qin Shaoyou to keep it secret.

After confirming that no one around was eavesdropping, Xue Lin said in a low voice: "There are traitors in the palace, which ruined our king's good deeds, and made the king and the officials on the left and right very angry. Today, all the officials in the palace will be examined one by one. over again"

"Brother Xue was also censored?" Qin Shaoyou asked.

"More than censorship"

Xue Lin sighed, and after hesitating for a while, he finally didn't say that besides the censorship, he was reprimanded and threatened.

Not only him, but all the officials in the Shu Palace have encountered such a situation.

But Xue Lin was very satisfied with Qin Shaoyou's reaction.

After this kid heard about this, he didn't ask what good things the traitor had done to the King of Shu, but cared about him first.

Based on this alone, he is a person worthy of deep friendship.

Of course, Xue Lin was also a little confused: "Brother Qin, don't you wonder if our king's good deeds were ruined, and he, the left and right officials, and others were all angry?"

"curious."

"Then why don't you ask?"

"I asked, will you say it?"

"Of course not."

"Isn't that the end?" Qin Shaoyou put a fennel bean into his mouth, and said with a smile: "Our demon town has a secrecy regulation, and I think there should be similar rules in the palace. It can make the king and the left and right grow up together." It must not be easy for officials and others to get angry. If I ask, Brother Xue, if you don’t tell me, it will break the relationship between you and me. But if I do, it will violate the rules of the palace and let Brother Xue you Get into trouble. So the best way is not to ask."

In fact, Qin Shaoyou didn't ask because he guessed it.

In the past two days, the things that angered the King of Shu and his confidantes, and were related to the inner ghost, could only be their creation of gods, which were secretly sabotaged by Zuo Qianhu.

Now that you know it, why ask?

Moreover, Xue Lin is just a courteous person in the palace, so he is unlikely to know about the God-making plan, and it would be useless to ask, so it's better to use it to gain favor.

Qin Shaoyou was not wrong in his judgment. Xue Lin really didn't know what the king of Shu and the officials on the right and left were angry about.

Of course, Xue Lin would never admit this in front of him.

Hearing Qin Shaoyou's words, Xue Lin breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time praised him sincerely: "Brother Qin, your situation, as a brother, I really feel sorry for myself!"

Qin Shaoyou waved his hand and said: "Brother Xue, you are being polite. To be honest, I am even more curious about who the traitor is! Our king, with discerning eyes, thirsty for talent, courteous corporal, is not an exaggeration to say that he is the virtuous king of our Great Xia Dynasty. It is unbelievable that someone would do something to betray him! That person really deserves to be killed!"

Gu Lai

Xue Lin echoed: "Who says it's not? We are also wondering, following the king is obviously a promising thing, but there are still people who are traitors."

Qin Shaoyou picked up his wine glass, looked at him and said, "Brother Xue thinks, who is this traitor?"

"I don't know. The palace is still investigating. The man is hiding very deep. The people in the court have been dispatched, but they still haven't been found out."

Xue Lin also picked up the wine glass, touched Qin Shaoyou, raised his head to drink, and said with a sneer, "Anyway, this traitor can be anyone, but it can't be you or me!"

Qin Shaoyou didn't drink the glass of wine, and said with a half-smile: "Not necessarily."

"What do you mean by that?"

Xue Lin frowned, and his expression changed suddenly: "You don't suspect that I am a traitor, do you? You and my brother, you actually doubt me?"

"Brother Xue misunderstood, I'm not doubting you, I'm worried that someone will doubt me."

Qin Shaoyou put down his wine glass and sighed faintly.

"Doubt you?" Xue Lin was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed out loud, as if hearing some incredible joke.

"Brother Qin, I didn't say that, you are really worrying. In my opinion, no matter who they suspect, the king and the left and right officials, it is impossible to suspect you. I will ask you, the people in the palace, Besides me, who else are you acquainted with? Even I cough, besides, you have been in the palace except for the day when the king entertained you. How have you ever been in the palace again in the past few days? Do you know what good things about our king have been ruined? Even if you want to be a traitor, there is no way to do it."

After a pause, Xue Lin jokingly said, "Even if I am a traitor, you, brother Qin, can't be. Ouch, what you said really hurt my stomach from laughing."

As Xue Lin said, the king of Shu and the chief officials of the left and right have been searching for traitors after the god-making plan was destroyed.

There were many targets they suspected, but there was no Qin Shaoyou.

Even in the past few days, Qin Shaoyou took Sun Xianzong, Zhu Xiucai, Monk Ma and others to Yizhou Town Demon Division every day, but they still did not doubt Qin Shaoyou.

On the one hand, they knew that every time Qin Shaoyou went to the Yaosi Town in Yizhou, he would go to the library, read the materials of the ghosts and the notes of the night watchmen in the past~lightnovelpub.net~ and did not have anything to do with Zuo Qianhu touch.

On the other hand, as Xue Lin said, Qin Shaoyou is still in the investigation stage, and the people from the Shu Palace just win over him and have not revealed any secrets to him.

Even Xue Lin didn't know about the god-making plan, so how could Qin Shaoyou know about it?

What is there to doubt about such a person?

After finishing the banquet with Xue Lin and sending him back to the Shu Palace, Qin Shaoyou returned to the post station, got in touch with Zuo Qianhu through Cen Biqing's son Jinchan, and told Zuo Qianhu about it.

Zuo Qianhu also told Qin Shaoyou that the people sent by the Shu Palace to do things were targeted by his confidantes sent in advance before they got into the refugees, and killed them in one fell swoop while they were unaware.

Not only that, Zuo Qianhu's confidant even dumped the blame on Wizard Qingtang.

Anyway, the Qingtang wizard has already appeared in the frontline theater, so it is reasonable to infiltrate a few and run to the rear to do things, isn't it?

As for whether the king of Shu and his staff will believe it, that is their business.

In addition, Lu Qian took the soldiers arranged for him by the Shu Palace, but because of the wrong information, he failed to find the refugees who gave him military exploits. Instead, he bumped into real bandits.

The result was embarrassing, the officers and soldiers couldn't beat the bandits.

Not to mention a big defeat, Lu Qian almost died for his country. In the end, he escaped with his life by running faster than his subordinates.

As a result, even if the literati arranged by King Shu wanted to flatter him, they really couldn't.

No wonder the king of Shu and his cronies and think tanks were out of breath.

Finally, Zuo Qianhu also told Qin Shaoyou to get ready.

"I have received a secret message from the commanding envoy. Reinforcements from the demon headquarters in Beijing will arrive soon. Once they arrive, it's time to close the net!"
