Emperor Shen's charming wife

Chapter 43 Full of Confidence

When Shen Yu and Ning Yao learned the truth, they were shocked. However, they were not ordinary people after all, and they quickly calmed themselves down and adjusted their mentality. They knew that if they acted rashly at this time, they would alert the enemy and lose everything. Ning Yao, relying on the influence she had accumulated in the palace for many years, carefully contacted some loyal court officials in secret. In a quiet corner of the palace or on a secluded path behind the rockery, Ning Yao met with these court officials. Their eyes met, conveying firmness and trust. After careful planning, a small group was quietly formed. Everyone in this small group gave their loyalty to Shen Yu without reservation, and was willing to go through fire and water for him at any time. They planned closely in secret, and when the time was right, they could succeed in one fell swoop. At the solemn court meeting, Shen Yu seemed to be careless and deliberately revealed some false information. He was calm, but his eyes scanned everyone's expression sharply, quietly observing who would make unusual moves behind the scenes. Those people with ulterior motives might think they were hiding very deeply, but they didn't know that they had fallen into the trap carefully set by Shen Yu. Through such clever means, he accurately selected several suspicious members of the royal family. At the same time, Ning Yao was in the quiet study, facing the faint candlelight, concentrating on studying the confidential documents that she had seized with great difficulty. Her brows were sometimes furrowed, sometimes relaxed, and her slender fingers gently turned the yellowed papers. Finally, among a pile of intricate clues, she discovered that there was an unknown secret connection between the mysterious leader and a tribe on the border. This crucial discovery, like a ray of light in the darkness, clearly pointed out the direction for their next move. Through a series of careful planning and layout, Shen Yu and Ning Yao, with their own wisdom and strategy, successfully instigated several members of the royal family who were originally vague and wavering, thus greatly strengthening their own camp. Just when they thought everything seemed to be on the right track in an orderly manner, an unexpected situation occurred. A guard who had always been loyal unexpectedly disappeared. Shen Yu and Ning Yao could not help but feel suspicious. They suspected that the guard was secretly kidnapped by the mysterious and powerful force. This sudden change was like a huge stone thrown into a calm lake, instantly stirring up layers of ripples, adding a layer of uncertainty to their seemingly careful plan. At this moment, Shen Yu and Ning Yao's hearts were shrouded in a layer of haze. They knew that they must find out the whereabouts of the guards as soon as possible, otherwise, their plan would probably fail. Shen Yu and Ning Yao stood there, full of confusion and frowning. At this moment, a figure appeared quietly like a ghost, and it turned out to be a mysterious messenger. The messenger presented a letter from a mysterious leader with an expressionless face. In the letter, the mysterious leader spoke coldly, threatening the lives of the guards and forcing Shen Yu to go alone to meet at the designated location. Shen Yu's eyes were solemn, knowing that this must be a carefully designed trap, and the other party's purpose was clear, that is, to capture him in one fell swoop. But those were fresh lives, how could he sit back and watch? Shen Yu bit his lower lip tightly, his face determined. Even though he knew that the front was a dragon's den and a tiger's lair, in order to ensure the safety of the guards, he had no choice but to decide to go alone and bet his life. At the same time when Shen Yu made this difficult decision, Ning Yao also made up her mind secretly. Her beautiful eyes were firm, and she decided to follow Shen Yu secretly. She knew in her heart that this trip was full of crises, and if she was not careful, she would fall into a place of no return. But how could she bear to watch Shen Yu face the unknown danger alone? She would stand up at the critical moment and provide him with support and protection. When Shen Yu arrived at the designated location as agreed, he immediately felt something strange around him. It was strangely quiet here, even the wind seemed to have stopped, as if time had been frozen. His heart sank, knowing that he had fallen into the trap carefully set by the other party. However, instead of retreating at all, he straightened his spine and strode forward with his head held high. The mysterious leader had been waiting here for a long time, with a smug smile on his face, as if everything in the world was under his control. He stared at Shen Yu with a cold gaze, and the corners of his mouth raised, revealing a hint of contempt. He slowly said, "You finally came, Shen Yu. You are really a man of loyalty and righteousness. You dare to take risks alone for a few small guards. But, do you think you can save them?" Shen Yu looked stern, looked at the mysterious leader with icy eyes, and asked coldly, "What do you want to do?" The mysterious leader laughed wantonly and said, "What do I want? I want you to die! You hateful emperor, dare to go against me, I will let you know how powerful I am!" After that, the mysterious leader waved his hand, and a group of people in black clothes rushed out from all directions like a tide, surrounding Shen Yu tightly. Shen Yu showed no fear, took a deep breath, and slowly drew out the sword at his waist. His eyes were firm and resolute, as if everything was under control. Just as Shen Yu and the man in black were fighting fiercely, Ning Yao also quietly came to the agreed place. She moved lightly and carefully observed the surroundings, and found that the mysterious leader had set up many traps here. She secretly thought that something was wrong, knowing that Shen Yu was in deep danger. She made a quick decision and decided to help immediately to help Shen Yu out of the predicament. Ning Yao carefully went behind the mysterious leader and suddenly stabbed the mysterious leader in the back with a sword. The mysterious leader sensed the danger, quickly dodged sideways, and then swung his sword back. Ning Yao and the mysterious leader started a fierce fight, and it was difficult to tell who would win.
