    "I understand. It's really pitiful for Yu Shuai to suffer this misfortune."

    Meng Ju frowned slightly, he began to understand the difficulty of this matter.  The son of the commander-in-chief of the Xiangyang Army died in the North. If he died at the hands of the Tatars of the Northern Wei Dynasty, Yu Huailie could only turn his grief into strength.  But if he were to know the truth and that his son actually died at the hands of Shen Xizhu, this fiery old soldier would definitely not give up. He would definitely seek revenge on Beifu and the Shen family.

    While he was meditating, Lin Changshi added casually: "It's such a pity that Mr. Yu died. He was a childhood sweetheart with Miss Xizhu of Shen Mansion, and they were still engaged. The two parties had already agreed that they would be married at the end of this year.  Married."

    Meng Ju¡¯s eyebrows twitched slightly, and he understood why the short Yinghou had such a strange look on his face when he saw Shen Xizhu approaching with a knife.  In the end, he smiled bitterly and looked like he was ready to die. His calmness and calmness still make Meng Ju sigh with emotion.

    "I remember. Is Master Yu short in stature, with short eyebrows, and a long, thin scar on the left side of his face?"

    "Ah, that's right! Grand Governor, how did that young master die"

    "At that time, Mr. Yu and another older Yinghou teamed up to assassinate the head of the Ye family, but they were captured by the Ye family on the outskirts. The Tatars brutally tortured them and asked them to explain their origins and intentions.  , but Mr. Yu and his companions never gave in Even at the last moment, Mr. Yu remained unyielding and died calmly in the end. His loyalty and righteousness filled the world."

    Meng Ju sighed deeply: "I was a bystander at the time and witnessed Mr. Yu's heroism. I was also deeply shocked. It's a pity that there were so many Tatars that we couldn't rescue them. This is really a regret for Meng in his life."

    Meng Ju spoke seriously and respectfully, and Lin Changshi couldn't help but sit up straight.  He said: "Please give me some advice. Who killed Mr. Yu?"

    Meng Ju glanced at him.  He said calmly: "I don't know either."

    "ah!"

    "Young Master Yu failed in his assassination attempt. He refused to give in, and he and his companions were killed on the spot by the Ye family's warriors. There were many Ye family warriors present, and they were all mixed together. I couldn't identify who committed the fatal murder.  ¡ª¡ªThis. I¡¯m really sorry.¡±

    Lin Changshi frowned slightly and asked, "Then it wasn't Miss Shen who did it?"

    "From what I saw, Miss Shen cannot be blamed for this."

    Lin Changshi breathed a deep sigh of relief, looking like he was relieved.  He looked at Meng Ju for a long time.  His eyes flickered, he nodded and said: "The Governor knows the general situation very well. In that case, I will tell you what you said truthfully when I get back."

    "Lin Changshi, since Marshal Yu has doubts about this matter again, why doesn't he directly ask Beifu for confirmation?"

    Governor, in fact, Beifu did not inform us of this matter.  They just told us that the marshal's son died in the Northern Kingdom.  As for how to sacrifice, they said nothing.  We also got some news through His Majesty's internal channels.  "

    Lin Changshi shook his head: "We didn't ask Beifu, because we also knew that even if we asked, there would be no results. After all, the Shen family is the founder of Beifu, and their penetration into Beifu was too deep, and Shen Xizhu was cut off  She is an important official whom the official trusts - Beifu will definitely cover her up. To be honest, we cannot trust Beifu in this matter."

    Can our Marshal Yu trust me?  "

    Lin Chang Shi Surong said: "Grand Governor, although we have never met, we have been friends with you for a long time. Marshal Yu has always admired you, not only because you are like a god in your military and have outstanding achievements, but also because you value love and justice.  , a promise worth a thousand pieces of gold, famous all over the world. The commander-in-chief feels that instead of trusting those reptiles in Beifu who always like to hide in the dark, we are more willing to trust an upright soldier like you. Moreover, you have no friendship with Shen Xizhu, and there is no need to protect you.  she is not?"

    Meng Ju smiled but said nothing.  But Lin Changshi understood his smile, and his face was slightly ashamed: the Xiangyang army of the Southern Tang Dynasty could not trust the Beifu of the Southern Dynasty. The conflict between the two imperial military departments was to find a Beifu thousands of miles away*  * valve to solve the problem, which is ironic enough.

    "It is inappropriate for Beifu to do this. Mr. Yu failed in his attempt to assassinate a national traitor and died heroically. He died heroically and bravely, with a strong heart and a strong heart. He was worthy of the court and his relatives. Such deeds should be vigorously commended and publicized by the imperial court. It is right for Beifu to do this.  The low-key handling made the names of the patriots who died for the country unknown, and also made their families feel heartbroken.

    Lin Changshi, I witnessed the whole process of Mr. Yu¡¯s sacrifice, and I was deeply shocked.  I really want to do something for him - I plan to submit a report to Beifu about the martyrdom of the two patriots, so as to demonstrate integrity and comfort the heroic souls. What do you think?  "

    Lin Changshi stood up and took a deep breath??: "Gao Yi, the governor of Mengda, honors the posthumous reputation of the young master of the Yu family. I would like to express my deepest gratitude to you on behalf of Marshal Yu."

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    After sending Lin Changshi away, Meng Ju sighed, he had to lie today.

    Now, Meng Ju finally understood why Shen Xizhu sneaked in to find him late at night.  When Mr. Yu died, all the people present except Shen Xizhu were subordinates of the Ye family. Their statements were not credible.  The only person who can help prove her innocence - or come forward to testify against her guilt - is Meng Ju, who is also an official of the Southern Tang Dynasty.

    "The crime of killing colleagues out of greed for life and fear of death is really too big.  If this matter spreads, not only will Shen Xizhu be ruined, but the Shen family's reputation will also be damaged, and even the reputation of Beifu will be affected.

    Meng Ju was willing to conceal the matter for Shen Xizhu not only because of her request that night, but also because he felt that Shen Xizhu was not at fault for this matter.  In the situation at that time, if Shen Xizhu hadn't taken the opportunity to prove his innocence without hesitation, no one knew what that lunatic Ye Jianxin would have done.  According to the legal perspective of later generations, even if Shen Xizhu killed someone, it was because of coercion and was not her intention.

    But when he thought of Shen Xizhu personally killing his childhood sweetheart fianc¨¦, Meng Ju felt a chill rush down his back.  He can understand some behaviors, but that doesn't mean he agrees with them.  Meng Ju had already made up his mind that next time he saw this femme fatale beauty, he would walk around her.

    That Lin Changshi was very shrewd, and he should have realized that he was lying, as evidenced by his sarcastic remark, "The Governor is very knowledgeable."  But he didn't expose it and pretended to believe himself - he should have considered the overall situation.

    The Northern Expedition is imminent, the Xiangyang Army must be the main force of the Northern Expedition, and Beifu must be the eyes and ears of the Northern Expedition.  If a conflict breaks out between the Beifu and Xiangyang armies at this time, it will definitely affect the next war.  !  .
