After receiving Chen Yuan's order, Youruo rushed to Pei's house without stopping and told Pei Jianghai about this matter.

However, to Pei Jianghai's surprise, Pei Jianghai just said "I know" and then let her go.

Looking at Pei Jianghai's appearance, it was obvious that he really intended to go to the Shen's house in person.

What methods did the master use?

Although she was puzzled, Youruo would not ask about these things in detail. Anyway, her mission was to complete the tasks assigned by the master.

Moreover, Youruo hated Pei Jianghai very much, but he was an indispensable part of the master's plan, so Youruo forced herself to hold back the disgust and resentment in her heart.

Last time, she almost died in Pei Jianghai's hands. How could she forget this matter?

Women are very vengeful creatures. Youruo is no exception.

Soon, Pei Jianghai rushed to the Shen's house to meet Chen Yuan.

After the two of them exchanged a few words casually, Chen Yuan took Pei Jianghai into the dungeon.

In the dungeon, Yun Shuya was tied up tightly with shackles and shackles.

But it seems that her life is not in danger.

Seeing this, Pei Jianghai's eyes flashed with a trace of pity.

"You should treat her injury."

"Whether I treat her injury or not depends on whether Lord Pei cooperates or not."

"I already know about this matter. I will leave first if there is nothing else."

After seeing Pei Jianghai leave, Youruo seemed even more puzzled. Pei Jianghai came all the way to the Shen family just to meet Yun Shuya with the master?

Does Yun Shuya have any secrets?

Isn't that the culprit who let Qin Yang go?

The more Youruo thought about it, the more confused she was. She simply stopped thinking about it. Anyway, those things were not what she should consider.

She just had to perfectly complete every order issued by the master of the family!

...

An hour later, the imperial city.

Gu Li and Lin Yiping knelt respectfully behind the empress and reported to her one by one.

"Pei Jianghai went to see Chen Yuan again, Your Majesty."

"What was the reason for their meeting?"

"According to the spy we planted in the Pei family, Chen Yuan seemed to be planning to use Yun Shuya to kill Qin Yang, and Pei Jianghai was also seeking revenge, so he got close to Chen Yuan."

"It's this matter..."

The empress's expression eased a little. Pei Jianghai and Chen Yuan were so close, which was not what she wanted to see. Fortunately, they were only doing it for Qin Yang's sake.

"Your Majesty, you don't have to worry about Commander Pei. Chen Yuan's wolfish ambitions are obvious, but Commander Pei is the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Guard. Even if Chen Yuan intends to win him over, he can't offer enough chips to make Commander Pei excited."

That's right. Pei Jianghai has everything now. He has money, power, and even an army. Is he crazy to accompany Chen Yuan in a rebellion? To do this business of killing nine clans?

The empress nodded slightly, agreeing with Gu Li's words. Pei Jianghai is not a fool and will never take risks.

"There is one more thing. The Sixth Elder of the Shen Family was executed by Chen Yuan."

The Empress frowned slightly, "Why?"

"Chen Yuan announced to the public that he was executed because he embezzled the clan's property."

Embezzled property? The Empress' eyes flashed with murderous intent. Is it really that simple? Or has that guy been exposed?

If he is exposed in public, wouldn't Chen Yuan know my thoughts at this moment?

This is equivalent to both parties showing their cards.

I know you have planted a hidden pawn, and this hidden pawn was removed by me. I also know that because of this hidden pawn, my plan has been known to you.

I also know that you are going to attack me.

The Empress said slowly: "It is worthy of Chen Yuan. This hidden pawn that I have painstakingly planted can also be pulled out by him."

"We must act quickly..."

Now, getting rid of Chen Yuan is imminent!

"How are the traps in Jiahe Palace being set?"

"All the traps have been set. If Chen Yuan enters the palace, he will surely die!"

"Very good, you two can leave. Summon Pei Jianghai to see me."

Not long after, Pei Jianghai arrived.

"Your humble servant greets His Majesty."

"No need to be polite, please stand up."

"Why did Your Majesty summon me?"

"On the fifteenth day, you arranged the imperial guards to surround Jiahe Palace. After hearing my order, they rushed forward and killed Chen Yuan."

Pei Jianghai knelt down: "Your humble servant obeys my order!"

"I'm sorry to ask you to stay here for a few days."

Pei Jianghai nodded.

"Your humble servant will obey your majesty."

The empress nodded and temporarily kept Pei Jianghai in the palace. Naturally, she didn't want him to inform Chen Yuan.

Although there is no evidence that Chen Yuan and Pei Jianghai have formed a party, it's better to be safe than sorry.

The killing of Chen Yuan is of great importance, and the empress is not suitable for any mistakes.

Of course, even if Pei Jianghai is allowed to stay in the palace temporarily, the empress will send people to secretly watch him. Once she finds that he has the intention of sending a letter to inform, the empress doesn't mind changing the commander of the imperial guard.

But on the surface, the empress still held Pei Jianghai's hand with a smile on her face.

"My dear, I have been busy with state affairs in the past few days and have never had the opportunity to have a long talk with you. Today I finally have this opportunity."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."

Seeing this look, those who don't know would think that she is a monarch who cares about her subjects.

Wei Qi was also very happy at this time. He had guessed the empress's thoughts. The fifteenth was the day when the empress would take action. On that day, Chen Yuan would die!

And once Chen Yuan died, would anyone in the court be able to be an enemy of him?

Those Shen party members were leaderless and were just a group of rabble.

The smile on Wei Qi's face was hard to hide. He was already looking forward to that day.

Shen family.

The Supervisory Department has been successfully established. As for Youruo, she is still the same as usual, always following Chen Yuan's side, massaging his shoulders and making tea for him.

Youruo said that she is now the Hanyue Envoy of the Supervisory Department, and whether she needs to handle some of the affairs of the Supervisory Department.

Chen Yuan just said.

"You just need to hold an empty position. Chen Jian and Chen Dao will handle the affairs of the Inspectorate."

"So I don't have to do anything to be one of the three envoys?"

Chen Yuan took a sip of tea.

"That's about it."

The tea was rich in aroma. As expected, the tea brewed by Youruo was more suitable for his taste.

"Master, you are so kind to me!"

Youruo was very happy. She didn't have to do anything to become one of the three envoys. What a great honor.

But for Chen Yuan, this was nothing. Everything was just a matter of his words.

"You should be careful recently." Chen Yuan reminded, "Qiu Bai told me that the Demon Suppression Department found that a group of demons had sneaked into Beiqi, and they are investigating thoroughly."

"In Beiqi, what will happen if the demons are found out? I don't need to say more, right?"

Beiqi and demons are mortal enemies!

Moreover, it is not just Beiqi. All human countries have no place for the demons of the Ten Thousand Demons Kingdom.

In Beiqi, once the demons are exposed, death is already the most merciful punishment.

"Thank you for your reminder, Master. I will pay attention to it."

"I remember, you are a bat demon, right?"

"Yes, I didn't expect Master to remember this. However, our Night Bat Clan is not a big demon in the Ten Thousand Demons Country. We are just those unknown people. I am afraid that Master's idea of ​​using my identity to plan some plans will fail."

After more than ten years of companionship, Youruo has long known Chen Yuan's character.

"Is that so... In other words, your Night Bat Clan has no power to fight against the top demons in the Ten Thousand Demons Country?"

"It's almost the same. After all, for the entire demon clan, race accounts for a large part of the strength. It is difficult for demons of inferior races to defeat demons of higher races."

"For example, if both are supremes, but one of them is from the Nine-tailed Fox Clan and the other is from the Night Bat Clan, then the Supreme of the Night Bat Clan may not be able to survive more than ten moves in front of the Supreme of the Nine-tailed Fox Clan."

Chen Yuan nodded. He didn't expect that the combat power of the demon clan was so greatly affected by race.
