Fei Mo brought up the incident last time again, "Childe, last time our people attacked the granary of Chu State, but the grain disappeared out of thin air, and the person who gave the order actually said that it was you who gave the order, but at that time you went to see Miss Xiao, don't we track down the whereabouts of the grain?" ”

Xue Tianao glanced at Fei Mo and snorted lightly, "We have been taken advantage of." And this person knows us very well, he must not be from the Chu State, nor is he from our side. Xue Tianao took a deep breath, "Continue to send someone to investigate, and there must be clues that can be found in the investigation of the generals who were on duty that night." Fei Mo nodded.

At this time, the attendant guarding the door came back and forth, "Report, Shangguan Gongzi asks to see!" Xue Tianao counted the days for a while, and it was enough, and waved his hand and said, "Take him to the main hall, and I'll go later." The attendant retreated, and Xue Tianao got up and walked outside.

When Xue Tianao came to the main hall, Shangguan Yunfan was standing there looking at an antique placed in the hall, and when he saw Xue Tianao coming out, he stretched out his hand and knocked on the porcelain, "Lord Jiedu, is this true?" Xue Tianao smiled, "It's just an imitation, it's for fun." Shangguan Yunfan smiled, "Another day, there will be a chance to send the Jie Du envoy a genuine product." ”

Xue Tianao stretched out his hand to invite Shangguan Yunfan to sit down, and said with a smile, "Then thank you Shangguan Gongzi." After Shangguan Yunfan sat down, the maid served tea, his face changed slightly, and he said with some embarrassment, "The grain that the envoy asked for in Xia Xia last time was collected, I'm afraid I can't hand it over in full today." ”

Xue Tianao had just picked up the teacup, and when he heard Shangguan Yunfan's words, the movements in his hands stopped, his face sank, his eyes swept towards Shangguan Yunfan, and then he put down the teacup, "Why?" Isn't it that Shangguan Gongzi thinks that the price given by the lower is not fair enough? "No, no, no, that's not it, it's just that now that the war is raging, and it's time for the green and yellow to be scarce, it's not just me who is collecting grain, so sometimes even if the price is high, it's hard to buy food."

Fei Mo stood aside and said unhappily, "When Shangguan Gongzi came here to talk to us about this business, he swore that he would definitely be able to raise grain and grass for us, and Shangguan Gongzi came in person, but now he can't do it, how can there be a businessman like you?" ”

Shangguan Yunfan hurriedly got up and hugged his fists and said, "It's also difficult to collect grain and grass below, if you don't collect grain and grass, you won't do business with you, so you know better than me how difficult it is to collect this grain and grass." Xue Tianao's face calmed down slightly, "Shangguan Gongzi will make a price!" ”

Shangguan Yunfan hurriedly smiled, "It's not a matter of price, it's really powerless." Seeing that Shangguan Yunfan said so 'sincerely', Xue Tianao no longer asked, "Then how much grain and grass can you give us today?" ”

Shangguan Yunfan saw Xue Tianao relieved and immediately said, "Fifty percent!" Hearing that there was only half of the grain and grass, Fei Mo was about to get angry but Xue Tianao stretched out his hand to stop him, "Okay, according to the price agreed before, I will only accept fifty percent of your grain and grass today." Shangguan Yunfan nodded, "The festival degree makes the adult really measure big, if there is grain and grass in the future, I must think of the festival degree envoy first." ”

Xue Tianao glanced at him coldly, didn't give him a good look, and got up to leave.

After Shangguan Yunfan came out of Xue Tianao, he got into his carriage directly, told the coachman to leave quickly, and the carriage galloped away.

Xue Tianao came to the study from the front hall and punched the table, Fei Mo scolded angrily, "What a profiteer!" Xue Tianao's eyes flashed with murderous aura, "Send someone to investigate this Shangguan Yunfan to see how much grain and grass he has, and where the other half of the grain and grass has gone." Fei Mo nodded and went out to do errands.

Three days later, Fei Mo came to the contact point with the news of the spies, these spies are all Xue Tianao's subordinates, but they are under the management of Fei Mo, Xue Tianao is now the envoy of the festival, in charge of the military and political affairs of several states, so he has no time to pay attention to these miscellaneous matters, but after explaining to Fei Mo, Fei Mo will deal with it.

Of course, some of the secret agents who focused on military intelligence and sent to the enemy camp were naturally directly managed by Xue Tianao.

This is a teahouse under the Kyushu Gang, Fei Mo put on a common person's clothes, waiting in the private room of the teahouse, this private room is located in a corner on the second floor of the tea house, standing in it you can see the crowd coming and going on both sides, Fei Mo entered the door, the shopkeeper recognized who it was, but it was still the same as entertaining ordinary guests, and greeted Fei Mo upstairs.

Came to the fixed private room on the second floor, Fei Mo waved his hand to the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper turned to leave, they didn't know about Fei Mo's affairs, and they never inquired, but the above helper Pei Luofei specially explained the matter, and they had to do it.

Fei Mo waited in the private room for a while, and someone came in, "Subordinates, see Fei Mo." Fei Mo nodded, "Is there any news from Shangguan Yunfan?" The spy replied, "That Shangguan Yunfan seems to be packing up his things, it seems that he is planning to leave Dingzhou, we have been sending people to keep an eye on his residence, and we are also investigating his business in Dingzhou City, but ...... Nothing. ”

Feimo frowned, and listened to the spy continue, "This Shangguan Yunfan is mainly engaged in the medicinal materials business, and he is not a direct medicinal material merchant, there is another boss above him, Shangguan Yunfan just receives the goods from him, and then resells them to the military camps in various places, the grain and grass business, he has a grain store in Dingzhou, but there is not much grain in it." ”

Seeing Feimo's expression getting deeper and heavier, the spy said, "My subordinates guessed that the large amount of grain and grass he sent to the barracks should be stored in a secret place, Dingzhou has checked it and has not found it, his grain and grass business is generally very secret, and outsiders don't know about it." ”

Fei Mo propped his fists on the table and frowned, "Sure enough, it's a profiteer, continue to stare at him, as long as he dares to leave Dingzhou City, arrest him immediately." ”

The spy nodded, "My lord, do you have any other instructions?" Fei Mo glanced at the spy and said, "Go and check a woman named Xiao Wanyao, if you find it, don't alarm her, just tell her somewhere, this person is the person the Lord of the Festival is looking for, you must find her." ”

The spy was slightly stunned, and asked carefully, "This person is very important?" Fei Mo nodded, "If something happens to this person, you and I won't be able to cut off my head." The spy was startled, and immediately understood, hugging his fists, "The subordinates must try their best to find this woman, but is there a portrait of this woman?" It's easier to find that way. Fei Mo paused, remembering that this Xiao Wanyao is also a smart person, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to be caught, "Wait for me to get a portrait to you, remember, use all the people, you must find her, after finding it, the festival will make the adults rewarded, go, if there is something, I will contact you again." ”

The spy turned and left.

Back at the Jiedu Embassy, Fei Mo saw Xue Tianao tell him about the spy, Xue Tianao's eyes were locked with a trace of worry, "There is a war going on here, if Wan Yao is here, she must be very dangerous as a woman who has no power to restrain the chicken." Fei Mo said, "The subordinates asked all the people under him to find out the whereabouts of Miss Wan Yao, and if there is any news, they will be quickly returned." Xue Tianao sighed slightly, this is the only way for now, I hope Wan Yao will not have an accident before she finds her.

Early in the morning of the second day, the spies grabbed a strange man and appeared in the Jiedu Embassy's mansion, Xue Tianao was discussing the war with the generals, and the spies carried people to find Fei Mo directly, "Who is this person?" Fei Mo stared at the frightened strange man, the spy threw the man to the ground, and replied, "My subordinates have been sending people to keep an eye on Shangguan Gongzi, and I found him packing up his things and preparing to leave in the past few days, and my subordinates stopped Shangguan Gongzi's carriage at the city gate, but it was this person sitting in the carriage. ”

Feimo frowned, "What about Shangguan Yunfan?" The spy said, "This ...... His subordinates thought that he might have left the city long ago, and that this person was just a trick for him. Fei Mo took a deep breath, "What a Shangguan Yunfan!" He knew we were staring at him. The spy said, "My lord, do you want your subordinates to send someone to look outside the city?" ”

Fei Mo waved his hand at him, "Wait until I report this matter back to Lord Xue, this person will be brought down first and locked up in prison." The spy nodded, then grabbed the man who was sitting on the ground and dragged him out, and the man kept begging for mercy in the air, "Adults spare their lives, adults spare their lives!" I don't know what's going on, really! ”

After Xue Tianao's soldiers left, Fei Mo walked in, "Childe! Xue Tianao looked up and sat down, "What's the matter?" Fei Mo replied, "The spies caught a person and said that he went out of the city in Shangguan Yunfan's carriage and caught him at the city gate, but this person didn't seem to know Shangguan Yunfan. ”

Xue Tianao paused slightly, and sneered, he didn't expect Shangguan Yunfan to be so cunning, since this is the case, it means that Shangguan Yunfan must have all the grain and grass not taken out, no wonder he looked a little strange when he saw him that day.

Seeing that Xue Tianao didn't speak, Fei Mo opened his mouth and asked, "Childe, this Shangguan Yunfan must have left the city, do you want to continue to investigate?" Xue Tianao waved his hand thoughtfully, "Forget it, he must have guessed that I would arrest him, so he had to pretend to be him and leave Dingzhou secretly, I'm afraid it's too late to look for him now." Xue Tianao's eyes darkened, "It's just that where will the other half of the grain and grass go?" Xue Tianao suddenly thought of the Chu army stationed in Wuzhou, in fact, what he had just discussed with the generals was to attack Wuzhou.

At this time, the Chu army stationed in Wuzhou lost grain and grass, although the loss of grain and grass was a bit strange, but it was very beneficial to them, the Chu army had no grain and grass and must be disheartened, and at this time attacking Wuzhou would definitely win a big victory, so he decided to send troops to attack Wuzhou three days later.

However, if Shangguan Yunfan's other half of the grain and grass were sold to the Chu army, it would be much more difficult to attack Xiawuzhou. Xue Tianao took a deep breath, he must not let the Chu army have a chance to breathe, and before Shangguan Yunfan's grain and grass are sent to the Chu army's barracks, he must send troops to attack Wuzhou.

Therefore, Xue Tianao set the battle after three days to play tomorrow.

Xue Tianao hadn't yet straightened out the sergeant, and the news that he would go to Wuzhou tomorrow had already reached Xiao Wanyao's side. Xiao Wanyao originally wanted to find an old friend and borrow some money, but she didn't expect such a thing to happen to Xue Tianao.

However, Xue Tianao's decision to fight in Wuzhou was also right, after all, Wuzhou is now short of grain and grass, and people are sluggish, if they don't seize this opportunity, it will be difficult to fight after they collect grain and grass. But if Wuzhou let Xue Tianao take it, it was not her intention, so Xiao Wanyao decided to go to Wuzhou first to have a look, and then make plans after that, and then let Zhentian and Zhenling find a way to drag Xue Tianao and not let him send troops tomorrow.

After Zhenling received Xiao Wanyao's news, he frowned anxiously, "Now that it's dark, what can be done to stop Xue Tianao from sending troops tomorrow?" ”R1154
