Chapter 269: Collaboration and treason

  Chapter 269 Collaborating with the enemy and treason

  Zhong Ning planned to tell Shen Li and Si Yan about her relationship with Gu Sheng the next day.

  This morning, when everyone was having breakfast, Zhong Ning looked at the others, feeling a little uneasy. Just when she was hesitating to speak, a person suddenly broke into the door.

  Guan Fu ran in in a panic, and attracted everyone's attention as soon as he entered the room.

  Si Yan frowned and said.

   "Why are you panicking, is there something wrong?"

  Guan Fu drove the horse all the way here, not daring to catch his breath. After entering the house, he took a breath before speaking.

   "General, it's Your Majesty, the imperial decree has come, and I'm in the western suburbs barracks right now."

  As soon as these words came out, not only Si Yan, but even Shen Li and Zhong Ning were shocked.

  Imperial decree? How could a good sage make a decree.

  You must know that imperial edicts are not issued casually, and are usually issued only when there are major rewards or punishments.

  Si Yan hasn't made any military achievements recently, so what will be the imperial decree?

  Thinking of this, Shen Li couldn't help feeling a little worried, she put her hand on the back of Si Yan's hand, her tone worried.

   "Husband, what's going on?"

  Si Yan's face was also solemn, but he was still relieved.

   "It's okay, wait for me to go back and have a look."

   Shen Li said immediately.

   "I'm with you."

  Zhong Ning was stunned for a while before speaking.

   "I... I'm with you too."

  The group of people soon arrived at the camp in the western suburbs. The **** who read out the imperial decree was the **** next to the emperor. Behind him stood a team of imperial guards, all of whom were top martial arts masters in the palace.

  Si Yan looked over from afar and realized that something was wrong, so he turned around and told Guan Fu.

   "Take them to the camp first."

  Shen Li didn't know Si Yan's arrangement, but felt that the carriage had changed its direction, and when she opened the curtain, Si Yan's figure was nowhere to be seen.

  Shen Li stopped immediately.

   "Guan Fu, where are we going?"

  Guan Fu wouldn't lie, and he also knew that he couldn't hide it from Shen Li, so he had to tell the truth.

   "The general ordered me to take you to the camp first, and he will come after receiving the imperial edict."

  Shen Li felt uneasy, but she didn't understand the affairs of the court, and she didn't know what Si Yan was thinking, so she could only go back and wait after listening to Si Yan's words.

  Shen Li waited anxiously in the tent, not knowing what was going on outside, Zhong Ning comforted her when seeing this.

   "It's okay, I'll know what's going on when General Si comes back in a while."

  However, the two waited for a long time, but they never waited for Si Yan to come back.

   Not long after, Guan Fu walked in with a flustered expression, hesitating.

   "Ma'am, the general... he was taken away by the Imperial Forest Army."

  Shen Li's heart, which was already in his throat, was about to explode almost instantly.

   "What? Why."

  Guan Fu looked equally nervous.

   "The imperial decree said that someone reported that the general had close contacts with Xiliang and Dongyuan Kingdom, had connections with the rebel party, and was suspected of collaborating with the enemy and treason. He should be brought back to Dali Temple for interrogation."

  TECO and Xiliang? Isn't it just a recent incident, Shen Li wondered.

   "Who reported it, this is simply a non-existent thing."

  Guan Fu had a complex expression on his face, as if he was a little jealous of that person, but he hesitated for a while before speaking out.

   "It is said that... the person who reported it was Su Dutong."

  Shen Li was surprised when she heard the name.

   "Su Jing, isn't she a member of Si Yan's subordinates? What's going on?"

  Guan Fu just remembered that Shen Li didn't know about Su Jing yet, so he said simply.

   "She was the one who deliberately transferred Captain Guo away to put you in danger. General Si drove Su Jing out of the barracks after finding out."
