From the previous time, General Huai sent letters to the capital one after another and couldn't see the recovery, everyone knew in their hearts that there must be something wrong, and the other party could directly intercept the communications on the front line, which is by no means something ordinary people can do, otherwise Qi Feng would not have said that he had done so much disguise to quietly touch the capital, what he was afraid of was that the unknown forces would intercept him halfway, although he said that he was not afraid of them, but he was worried that if something happened to him, the letter would not be able to be sent to the capital, and the soldiers at the border gate would really dare not imagine how the soldiers at the border would beใ€‚

"General Qi doesn't have to worry too much, although Lone can't come forward to help you directly now, but he can help you show you the way~!" Duanmu Jing said to Qi Feng, who was hesitant and dazed: "Lone will arrange someone to help you and hand this letter directly to Lord Xue, the capital~!"

"Is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really?" Qi Feng immediately unloaded half of the big stone in his heart as soon as he heard this, although he was far away at the border, he still knew something about the capital Lord Xue, and knew that he was a very upright person, if this letter could be handed over to his hands, there would be no problem in sending it to His Majesty.

Duanmujing arranged for someone to send Qi Feng out of the Prince's Mansion, and now he is still in a state of solitary confinement, so Qi Feng must not let others know that he is here. He had Qi Feng sent to a small courtyard in the city, and also arranged for a small team of guards to disguise himself to protect his safety.

Two days later, under the instruction of Duanmu Jing, Qi Feng changed into a shabby military uniform full of stains, messed up his hair and asked people to make some hands and feet on his face, put on a dirty and torn cloak to cover himself, and then squatted at the intersection that Lord Xue must pass every day when he returned to the house, and when he saw Lord Xue's sedan chair coming, Qi Feng jumped up from the side of the road, and he couldn't stop the family in front of the sedan chair, but he fell to the ground first and rolled a few embarrassed, and the token he was holding in his hand also fell out of his hand, and happened to fall in front of Lord Xue's sedan chairใ€‚

"My lord~~!my lord~~!I am the general of the front line, and I have a secret letter to present to Your Majesty~~!" Although Qi Feng wanted to shout this sentence at this time, he also remembered the instructions of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to him before, saying that some people were also interfering in the capital now, so he didn't dare to attract the attention of others, so he said this sentence in a low voice, but at such a close distance, his voice should be heard by the other party.

Sure enough, although Lord Xue, who was sitting in the sedan chair, did not respond to Qi Feng, he asked the housekeeper to take the token, and arranged for someone to help Qi Feng up and enter the Xue Mansion with him.

As a result, Lord Xue took his hand and went to the palace overnight, and then many officials of the court were called into the palace overnight by the chamberlains, and it can be said that most of the capital was disturbed this night, but the strange thing is that the vicinity of the mansion of the third prince has been quiet, and it has not been affected at all.

As soon as the third prince entered the palace today, he felt that something was wrong, and he suddenly felt a little uneasy in his heart, and wanted to find someone to ask what happened, but he saw Gonggong Gao coming from afar, so he quickly dispelled this idea.

"Greetings to the Third Highness~~!" Father-in-law Gao, as usual, asked for peace very respectfully before speaking: "Third Highness, Your Majesty asked you to go to the court quickly, today's court meeting is ahead of schedule~!"

When the third prince heard Gonggong Gao say this, the uneasiness in his heart became bigger and bigger, but he didn't dare to delay in front of Gonggong Gao, so he could only follow Gonggong Gao's back to the court, and while walking, he secretly wondered what was going on in his heart.

But soon the three princes knew what was going on, because at the beginning of today's court meeting, Duanmu Shuxuan was directly angry at the hundred officials in the court, and the more the three princes standing on the side listened, the more frightened they became, and in the end, the cold sweat directly wet his clothes. And now all that is left in his heart is endless despair.

In the end, Duanmu Shuxuan not only questioned many officials, but even asked people to thoroughly inspect the warehouse where gunpowder was stored, although he did not reprimand the three princes on the surface, but everyone knew in their hearts that this time the three princes were afraid that it would be difficult to turn over.

Sure enough, Duanmu Shuxuan lifted the seclusion of the crown prince Duanmu Jing, and in turn deprived the three princes of the rights in their hands, although they did not move the three princes themselves, but everyone understood in their hearts that the three princes were already in the general trend, and the most important thing in the court was those who fell with the wind, when everyone found out that the three princes had lost power, some officials who had taken refuge in him in the past quickly fell to the prince.

Although Duanmu Jing did not particularly welcome these officials who came over, he did not directly refuse, but he asked his subordinates to hint at these officials who came over, and asked them to report what happened when they followed the third prince and some strange things. Those officials thought that this was a fight between the prince and the third prince, and now that they had changed to the prince, it didn't mean that it was really not good, so they poured out all the things they knew, although there were a lot of exaggerated things in this, but it still allowed Duanmujing to catch some clues, and soon he followed these clues to find a breakthrough.

"Touch~~!" Wei Yurong threw the cup in her hand out and smashed it, and then she gave a look to a man standing on the side, and with a wave of the other party's hand, several people immediately emerged from the shadows, dragging the guys kneeling on the ground directly out.

"Master Rao~~~~!" Obviously, the people who were dragged away knew their next fate, and they tried to beg for mercy, but unfortunately one mouth was blocked by someone, and they wanted to struggle but were held by others, and their eyes were full of fear.

"Useless things~~!" Wei Yurong scolded in a low voice, "I can't even do this little thing~~!"

After the man let the left and right retreat, he walked directly behind Wei Yurong and hugged her, and whispered in Wei Yurong's ear: "What are we going to do next?" Now that the prince has found out so many things, if he is allowed to investigate, we may be exposed~!"

Wei Yurong was hugged by the other party like this, and a trace of disgust flashed in her eyes, but she still said softly: "What are you afraid of~~!There is a substitute ghost in front of us~~!"

"You mean to put this on the third prince?" the man said with some uncertainty: "But it took a lot of effort for us to get on the line with him, wouldn't it be a pity to give up like this?"

It's no wonder that he would say this, in order to be able to win the three princes, they didn't bother a lot, but now they are going to throw him away after taking advantage of the three princes, and they really feel a little distressed.

"Hmph~~!" Hearing this, Wei Yurong snorted coldly, and then directly broke free from the other party's embrace and said, "Otherwise, what else can I do? Let the other party dig us out?"

The man was silent when he heard Wei Yurong say this, although he said that he was distressed that the previous investment had not been recouped and returned, but compared with his own small life, his own small life was more important.

"Then I'll arrange this thing~~!" Since this has been decided, it must be cut through the mess quickly, so this matter should be sooner rather than later.

"Wait a minute~~!" Wei Yurong suddenly stopped at this time, and then she took out a few letters from a secret room in the room and handed them to the other party, "Put these letters in the study of the third prince, since they are all planning to use him as a substitute for the dead ghost, then just make the best use of it and let him take on some more for us~~!"

These letters are their direct correspondence with Da Yue, and in order to conceal it, there is no signature on the letter, but the content in it is really planning If you get artillery and gunpowder from Nanshu, if this letter is placed in the third prince, even if he is full of mouths, I am afraid that it will not be clear, and if this matter is pushed on the body of the third prince, then his side can completely lurk, waiting for the opportunity to give Nanshu a fatal blow.

The third prince left his mother a little depressed, he really didn't expect his mother to give up on himself, such a blow is absolutely huge for him, you must know that if it wasn't for the mother concubine who has been hinting at him before, how would he have made it to compete with his eldest brother for this position, but now he has just lost a little, and his mother treats himself like others, which makes him feel dissatisfied with the resentment in his heart.

And the third prince, who returned to the mansion, heard from his subordinates that several of his staff members who were originally attached to him suddenly disappeared, which made him panic, knowing that all the things he did behind his back had passed through their hands, and as long as one of them shook out those things, his fate would not be good.

The panicked third prince immediately ordered people to find those staff members who suddenly disappeared, and even issued an order to kill each other directly if they saw each other. And began to clean up the previous lovers.

In the capital in the past few days, several murders have occurred in a row, and in this extraordinary matter, such a thing happened, Duanmu Shuxuan was of course furious, and ordered Jing Zhaoyin in the capital to solve the case within a limited time, and the entire capital was turned upside down for this matter.

"Look~~!, an arrester, quickly took out a few letters from behind a movable brick under the bed and handed them to Li Qi, the servant of the criminal department who was in charge of the crime scene.

When he saw these letters, Li Qi's joy in his heart could not be concealed, His Majesty showed that the case was solved, which made the entire criminal department panic, but there was no substantial progress, if these letters could provide him with some useful clues, then his own credit would be great.

However, when Li Qi read those letters, the expression on his face became very ugly, and the letters in his hand instantly became a hot potato~!

"You people have guarded this place~~!" After Li Qi put those letters close to him, and after instructing his subordinates to take care of the scene, he immediately turned around and returned to the Criminal Department, and handed over the letters he had just gotten to his immediate boss, Huang Wan, the secretary of the Criminal Department.

"My lord, this letter was just found in the room of the deceased who was assassinated at the Penglai Inn, and this thing was hidden under a moving brick under the bed~!"

There were five of these letters, four of which were arranged for a number of things, and each of these things involved the supply of the army at the front, and it is not difficult to see from these letters how they had replaced the supplies with shoddy ones, and thus profited from them.

And these are not anything in Huang Wan's eyes, in fact, His Majesty already knows this matter in his heart, and the third prince is His Majesty's son, His Majesty bypassed the third prince before, but some officials have already told everyone that he does not plan to move this son, so on this matter, everyone also remained silent.

But this is the fifth letter, the content mentioned in this letter is completely directly related to Otsuki, or it can be said that this letter is the letter between the three princes and Otsuki, and the content of the letter is also saying that I hope the three princes will get more gunpowder, and it is best to get some of those artillery, and some of the things mentioned in it can be said to be very detailed, and it is not difficult to judge the authenticity of this letter if you extrapolate a little bit about what happened before.

This matter is no longer something that Huang Wan, the secretary of the criminal department, can handle, so he hurriedly cleaned up and entered the palace before the palace gate fell, and early the next morning, Gonggong Gao led a team of people to the mansion of the third prince directly.

"Your Majesty~~!" Gao Gonggong presented the secret letters he found from the secret room of the third prince's study to Duanmu Shuxuan, he looked at Duanmu Shuxuan's completely white temples, and couldn't help but worry for a while, sure enough, Duanmu Shuxuan vomited a mouthful of blood and fainted directly after reading those letters.
