Chapter 1116 Murderous intention!
Currently, An Miaoyi, as the eldest wife in the Ye family, is in a safe position. However, her son Jingren's position as the crown prince is her red line. However, outside the red line, she still has the grace and tolerance of a first wife!

But if you touch the red line of An Miaoyi, then you will see how ruthless this woman is...

Pei Zhixiu is neutral and kind. As long as others don't bother her, she will try her best not to get involved in the affairs of the mansion!

Although Murong Qingwu wanted to participate in the conquest of the throne, she could only wait and see because she had not given birth to a boy yet.

As for Bai Yuanyuan, although she is willing to pave the way for her son Jing Heng, she knows her own capabilities, so on the surface she still clings to An Miaoyi and cheers for An Miaoyi and Jing Ren, but secretly Bai Yuanyuan is biding her time and accumulating strength!

As for Jinyu, she had no children and was born in a humble family, so she had always been weak in the Ye Mansion. However, as a maid of Ye Cui, she had Ye Cui as her backer, so no one in the Ye Mansion dared to bully her!
Bai Yuanyuan's idea is to take advantage of the conflict between the two parties while the fisherman benefits. She lets An Miaoyi and Murong Qingwu confront each other head-on, while she quietly makes a fortune behind the scenes!

But although Bai Yuanyuan had good ideas and was very careful in her calculations, her acting skills were average, and An Miaoyi saw through her thoughts, letting An Miaoyi know that she was acting herself, but An Miaoyi did not expose Bai Yuanyuan's little thoughts!
Bai Yuanyuan thought that while the snipe and the clam quarreled, the fisherman would benefit, but she, An Miaoyi, also wanted to use Bai Yuanyuan to deal with Murong Qingwu!
However, even though Ye Mingsheng and the other women were calculating in private, they all kept their thoughts to themselves!

Only Shen Yutong directly used practical actions to show everyone that she wanted to pave the way for her son Jingcheng to participate in the future succession battle...
In Ye Mingsheng's opinion, if he had really agreed to the marriage between Jingcheng and the Yuan family, Shen Yutong and Jingcheng would immediately become thorns in An Miaoyi's side!

But An Miaoyi is not stupid and she knows that once something happens to Shen Yutong and Jing Cheng, she will be the number one suspect even without evidence, so she will definitely not do it herself and will most likely use someone else's knife to kill someone!
Although Murong Qingwu has a good relationship with Shen Yutong, I'm afraid she won't think of their sisterly love in such a matter. She might also take action and put the blame on An Miaoyi, letting An Miaoyi take the blame!
It's not impossible for Bai Yuanyuan to take action and use this incident to intensify the conflict between An Miaoyi and Murong Qingwu in order to achieve her ulterior motives!
Although it is not known which of these three women will succeed in the end, Shen Yutong and Jing Cheng will definitely become victims of the conspiracy!

In fact, not only these three women, but even Ye Mingsheng himself wanted to kill Shen Yutong. He felt that this woman was too ambitious, had too many ideas, and was very vindictive!

After An Miaoyi prevented Jingcheng from marrying the Yuan family and arranged a marriage between Jingcheng and the daughter of Wang Zhi, the governor of Youyan, Shen Yutong also bore a grudge against An Miaoyi and herself!
In fact, to be honest, Ye Mingsheng could understand some of Shen Yutong's grievances. Ye Mingsheng also did not deny that he did not care much for Jingcheng. This was something he needed to improve.
However, Ye Mingsheng could not accept that Shen Yutong conveyed some hateful remarks to Jingcheng because of her own resentment·······················

Although Shen Yutong currently does not have the courage to let Jing Cheng hate her, and mainly wants Jing Cheng to hate An Miaoyi, this is something Ye Mingsheng cannot allow!
Ye Mingsheng doesn't want his family to have conflicts, fratricide, or even fratricide in the future!
Therefore, if any such signs appeared, Ye Mingsheng would want to strangle them in the cradle and prevent them from continuing to grow!
For this reason, Ye Mingsheng also considered letting Shen Yutong suddenly fall ill one night, and then hand Jingcheng over to Pei Zhixiu to raise!

But in the end, considering that Jingcheng is still too young to be without a mother, and that there is no impenetrable wall in this world, Jingcheng may also know the truth of the matter in the future, so Ye Mingsheng does not want him to hate himself in the future. So after thinking it over again and again, Ye Mingsheng came to Shen Yutong's yard today!
Ye Mingsheng wanted to give Shen Yutong a chance to let this self-righteous woman know the seriousness of the matter and not to go down the wrong path!

As long as Shen Yutong can reform herself and become honest and law-abiding, she will still be the lady of the Ye family and enjoy the wealth and glory of this world!

But if Shen Yutong cannot turn back from her wrong path, Ye Mingsheng can't keep this scourge of her. He believes that Pei Zhixiu will raise Jingcheng well...
At this time, Shen Yutong didn't know that her husband had already decided to kill her and was planning to give her child to another woman to raise!

But Ye Mingsheng's words just now made Shen Yutong realize that the Ye Mansion was more dangerous than she had imagined, and she and her child had almost walked around the gate of the underworld!

Thinking of this, Shen Yutong immediately knelt at Ye Mingsheng's feet and said sincerely:
"Thank you for your protection, sir!"

Looking at Shen Yutong who lowered her eyebrows and looked docile, Ye Mingsheng said lightly:
"You are my woman, Jingcheng is my son, and it is my duty to protect you and your son. You don't need to thank me!"

"But Shen Yutong, you should think clearly about what you should do next and which path to take. This is the most important thing!"

Shen Yutong, who had just been feeling somewhat relieved for his lucky escape, suddenly looked conflicted after hearing this.

Although Ye Mingsheng did not say it directly, Shen Yutong could understand that although Ye Mingsheng protected the safety of them and their son, he still did not want to give Jingcheng any hope of becoming the crown prince!

Seeing Shen Yutong still daydreaming, Ye Mingsheng's eyes showed a cold look and he said:

"If one's talent is not worthy of his position, he will suffer. If one's virtue is not worthy of his position, he will suffer disaster. Shen Yutong, what you have done is not only not for Jingcheng's good, on the contrary, you are pushing him to a dead end!"

“If you really want to do good for Jingcheng, then you should stop in time before anything terrible happens. This will be a good thing for both you and Jingcheng…”

Feeling the hidden threat in Ye Mingsheng's words, Shen Yutong was reluctant but gave up. She knew that if she continued to pester him, it would not only be of no help, but would bring disaster to Jingcheng. Perhaps becoming a Prince Taiping in the future would not be a bad thing!
Thinking of this, Shen Yutong gradually let go of the worry in her heart, and immediately kowtowed to Ye Mingsheng and said:

"I know I was wrong. I will behave myself from now on. I will go and apologize to the Madam tomorrow!"

Hearing Shen Yutong's answer, Ye Mingsheng nodded slightly and replied with satisfaction:
"It's a good idea that you have, but you have to know that walls have ears. If you don't want others to know, then don't do it yourself!"

"Shen Yutong, I hope you can take care of yourself!" After saying that, Ye Mingsheng stood up from the chair and prepared to go back to sleep. He had a Zhongyong Hall meeting to attend tomorrow morning to discuss some financial issues with Cui Shaogu Sansi and Zhang Juning.

However, just when Ye Mingsheng took one or two steps out, he felt a fragrant breeze coming from behind him, and Shen Yutong hugged him from behind.

Immediately afterwards, a voice that sounded somewhat aggrieved and resentful sounded in Ye Mingsheng's ears.

“My husband, I miss you so much…”

Sichuan, Chengdu

In a mansion somewhere, General Zhang Hui of the 15th Division was discussing matters with his two deputy generals, Ye Dayong and Cai Yaozu!

Zhang Hui looked at Cai Yaozu and asked seriously:
"How are the soldiers preparing?"

Facing Zhang Hui's question, Cai Yaozu also answered solemnly:
"The soldiers are ready, just waiting for your order tonight, we can rush into Hu Fei's mansion and chop off the head of this bastard!"

Hearing what Cai Yaozu said, Zhang Hui nodded with relief. Now, more than a month has passed since their 15th Division entered Sichuan. Under the arrangement of the Coordination Office, the 15th Division can be said to have arrived in Chengdu safely!
According to the previous plan of the Coordination Office, Liu Baichuan had already discussed with Hu Fei that the 15th Division and Hu Fei's troops would jointly attack Ma Peng, the general of Bazhong!

But in fact, the joint attack on Bazhong was just a cover, a cover to make Hu Fei complacent. Hu Fei himself was the target of the 15th Division.

As long as Hu Fei allows the 15th Division to enter Chengdu, the 15th Division will find an opportunity to launch a surprise attack and kill this bastard Hu Fei!

Liu Baichuan had a good idea, but Hu Fei came from a humble background and had managed to get to his current position, so he was very vigilant. Although he was willing to surrender to the Fengwu Army due to the situation, he actually lacked enough trust in the Fengwu Army...

Therefore, although at Liu Baichuan's strong request, he allowed the soldiers of the 15th Division to enter Chengdu, he did not allow all of the soldiers of the 15th Division to enter Chengdu. He only allowed about one thousand Fengwu Army soldiers to enter Chengdu, and the remaining 20,000-plus soldiers of the 15th Division had to set up camp outside Chengdu!
Liu Baichuan, Zhang Hui and others would definitely not want to agree to this, but Hu Fei's attitude on this matter became very tough. If they did not agree, he would not allow any Fengwu Army to enter Rongcheng!
So on this matter, Liu Baichuan and Zhang Hui made some compromises after discussion, and Zhang Hui led a thousand soldiers of the 15th Division into Chengdu.

Ye Dayong and Cai Yaozu, two deputy generals, were left outside the city by Zhang Hui to manage the 15th Division. Although the 15th Division did not enter Chengdu as planned, Zhang Hui and Liu Baichuan still decided to carry out the established plan to kill Hu Fei.
However, the specific plan needs to make some changes. For this purpose, Liu Baichuan used both kindness and force to win over Ding Li, a commander under Hu Fei. Although Ding Li did not hold a high position, he was responsible for guarding the west gate of Chengdu. What Liu Baichuan wanted him to do was to open the west gate and let the soldiers of the 15th Division outside the city enter Chengdu...

In the view of Zhang Hui and Liu Baichuan, although Hu Fei has a lot of soldiers under his command, most of them are a motley crowd. Therefore, as long as the 15th Division enters Chengdu, the overall situation will be settled, and Hu Fei will surely be killed and presented to the Marshal!
The spies from the 15th Division and the Coordination Office have been busy these days for this matter. As the general of the 15th Division and the main person in charge of the Fengwu Army's attack on Sichuan, the pressure on General Zhang Hui of the 15th Division is also very great!
Cai Yaozu's words gave him a reassurance, but things are unpredictable. Before Zhang Hui's pressure was relieved, there was a sound of anxious footsteps outside the door. Just when Zhang Hui was curious about what happened, a guard came to him and reported:

"General, Admiral Wang asked me to tell you that something has happened around our base. Some soldiers from the Sichuan Army seem to be gathering!"

"What's going on! Take me to see it!"

As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately attracted the attention of Zhang Hui and Cai Yaozu. Without any hesitation, the two of them followed the guards out.

Walking out of the house and arriving at the station of the Fengwu Army soldiers, I saw that there were obviously many more Sichuan Army soldiers around the station. At this time, the Lieutenant General Wang Shaoxiang, who followed Zhang Hui into Rongcheng, also came over and whispered to Zhang Hui:
"General, there are at least three thousand Sichuan troops surrounding our base..."

"And it looks like more and more Sichuan troops are gathering here. Do you think our plan has been leaked and discovered by that bastard Hu Fei?"

Hearing Wang Shaoxiang's words, Zhang Hui's heart sank. He glanced around at the surrounding situation and then lowered his voice and asked:

"Can we get in touch with the Coordination Office?"

Wang Shaoxiang shook his head and said helplessly:

"I can't get in touch with them. I don't know where those spies from the Coordination Office have gone!"

Hearing this, Zhang Hui was a little hesitant. The situation was already very dangerous. Even though the 1,000 Fengwu soldiers he brought into the city were all elite troops, they were no match for four hands. If the news really leaked out, and they continued to allow the Sichuan Army to send more soldiers to surround them, they would be in danger of being wiped out!
But if the news has not leaked, then taking action now would undoubtedly disrupt the plan. What if the action fails? What about the responsibility?
Thinking of this, Zhang Hui was a little conflicted, and he blamed the spies in the Coordination Office in his heart. Now when he needed them to provide intelligence the most, he couldn't find anyone at all. These people in the Coordination Office were really just there to eat for nothing...
