After spending more than a month in trepidation, Yan Qingge felt that he had never been so nervous.

In the past month or so, Yan Qingge has been paying attention to the news from the carrier pigeon every day, and the news written by Murong Yixuan still uses copper pipes.

In the past month or so, Murong Yixuan's harvest is not small, he first found out the situation of the border barracks, looked at the frequency of enemy attacks on the border, and at the same time, the combat effectiveness of the current garrisons of each subordinate army was also checked.

It is not only a transportation line for reporting military information, but also a transportation line for materials that are served with grain and grass.

And when looking at the ordnance, Murong Yixuan found a problem.

"Look, Lord Wang, this is the situation when we fought the enemy army last time, and these are all left over from the battlefield."

"The last time we met, if this king remembers it well, it should have been five months ago?" Murong Yixuan remembered that five months ago, there was a skirmish on the border, although the scale was not large, but for some reason, the two sides fought with real knives and guns, and still caused some casualties.

Since there was no official war on the border, the scale of the clash was not large, but it was also reported to the capital, and the cabinet elders seemed to disagree with this, and since then, strict orders have been issued to the defenders of the border, only to defend and not to fight.

Since then, for five full months, the defenders of the border have been helpless in the face of enemy provocations, burning, and plundering.

Murong Yixuan looked at the remnants of the war that had been sorted out, as well as a batch of baggage, and was silent, his eyes skimming over everything.

No one dared to bother.

Suddenly, his eyes rested on a pair of flags.

"Lord Wang, what's wrong? Is there anything wrong with this banner? "There was something strange about the guards on the side.

Is there anything wrong with this banner?

Murong Yixuan took a step forward and took out one of the pairs of flags, there was nothing wrong with the flags, what was problematic was something under the flag.

After taking out the big flag, under the big flag, there were a few scattered feather arrows, which didn't seem to be found, so when he knew that Murong Yixuan went to see it, it was still in a scattered state.

He took two of them, and looked at the grooves in the feathered arrows, thoughtfully.

He just watched and didn't speak, which made everyone below silent.

After a long time, he turned around and said, "Bring these back." ”

After saying that, Murong Yixuan left with a calm face.

Although the people at the bottom didn't know why, they did it anyway.

Murong Yixuan looked carefully in his camp tent, although they were captured on the battlefield, the feather arrows they used were almost no different from those used by their own garrison.

Under normal circumstances, this is simply impossible, because if the language they use is used by the enemy, it is at most capture, and every time, the time interval between the conflicts is so far that there is a time lag between the feather arrows they can get.

Although the feather arrows used by the Central Plains army are made by a special general department to ensure quality, each batch of feather arrows will have subtle differences in addition to the process.

So—

What they can seize must be from different batches of feather arrows, so the feather arrows that were seized in reverse at the scene should be from different batches, which is relatively messy.

But all the feather arrows he saw here today turned out to be from the same batch.

This is almost impossible, and these feathered arrows are clearly not reused.

Could they be able to get their hands on a brand new feather arrow?

That's weird.

All feather arrows have a uniform provenance, so how can they get a brand new feather arrow?

Murong Yixuan looked at the somewhat scattered but weird feather arrows in front of him, and fell into deep thought.

In this way, after an hour, Murong Yixuan called someone to bring a few bows commonly used by the archers of the garrison and the army in the country.

Murong Yixuan called several archers in the army and asked them to bend their bows and shoot arrows.

Although a few people were confused, they still complied, and the result they got from archery made Murong Yixuan's heart half cold.

"This...."

Everyone is using the military standard of curved bows to shoot arrows, and when the smell comes from the bow and arrows, the force point of the bow and arrow is completely different from the force point of the workpiece captured on the battlefield 5 months ago, at least it proves that the person who used these feathered arrows is not an archer in the army.

That proves that the people who used these feathered arrows were not their army.

It's strange that someone who isn't on their side can get a brand new feather arrow, and even use it in reverse in a conflict, what is the matter?

Murong Yixuan wrote down this section in his heart, there is really something wrong with this ordnance, if you want to investigate it carefully, I am afraid you have to return to the capital, back to the place where these feather arrows were originally produced.

to find out.

Murong Yixuan came specifically to investigate this time, and he was about to leave when the purpose was achieved, during this time he only sent two summons to the emperor, and the news that came back also pointed out some daily affairs, and did not mention very critical information.

At the same time, he got the grain and grass data he wanted from Yan Qingge's hands, and the task could be said to have been completed, so he didn't stay long, if he stayed any longer, I was afraid that the Lord Du Hu would be so worried that his hair would fall out.

Before leaving, Murong Yixuan once again reiterated the emperor's will: "For the nobles of some warlike tribes who are not very obedient, you can knock on it at the appropriate time to let them know the majesty of the Celestial Empire and His Majesty the Great Emperor." ”

This is also the reason why he came to the border and released the most self-signal.

It's okay to go to war, but if people don't offend me, I won't offend anyone, and if people offend me, we must always learn to fight back.

And at this time, the East Palace.

The prince looked at the information that came up, his brows were almost knotted, there was nothing, this Murong Yixuan just went to the border for a turn, showed his majesty for the old man, and then disappeared?

Okay, dignified regent to go, go around in a circle, a few months?

The battle was so big, but he didn't get some useful information, there was so much he could do in the past few months, why couldn't he find out at all?

This Murong Yixuan actually played tricks with them!

For such a long time, I didn't believe that he didn't do anything else, but his intelligence network didn't know what was wrong, and he couldn't find out any news.

Murong Yixuan has always been a cautious person, and this banquet Qingge also has important news to intervene, either rotting in the stomach, or using the most secret method of interrogation, and the prince can't detect it for a while.

On the one hand, Murong Yixuan returned to Beijing, and the task was completed well, but on the other hand, the situation of the third prince was not so good, the situation in Jiangnan was even worse than he imagined, but he did not get the emperor's authorization, and he did not have the courage to offend those officials who had been in Jiangnan and Liangguang for a long time.

So the matter in the south of the Yangtze River was delayed again and again, and the emperor sent officials subordinate to the Ministry of Industry and Water to survey and dredge the river embankment, but the three princes themselves did not have access to water conservancy, and they couldn't tell the good from the bad, so they could only let them do it, and all he could do was to open a warehouse and put grain, that's all.

originally thought that he had received his father's errand, although the situation of Jiangnan was not a beautiful difference, but in the end it also meant his father's trust in him, but he didn't expect that the matter of Jiangnan was so tricky, and he spent so much time not dealing with it, what should I do if it goes on like this?

In desperation, I had to hold on.

The emperor knew that his son should not be able to do anything, so in the second month after he was sent out, he was called back, but the accompanying officials remained.

For the current officialdom in Jiangnan, the three princes from the capital are just a mascot.
