Chapter 118: The Yenching Crisis

After a big war, Qinghe Town suddenly fell into a lot of depression, and it was full of the ruthlessness of war and the mess after the war. In the Fushou gambling house, everyone heard that Chu Xiaofeng had woken up, and under the leadership of Yang Hu and Xiao Xiao, they gently pushed open the door of Chu Xiaofeng's room. I saw Chu Xiaofeng sitting on the bed alone, looking at the opposite wall in a daze.

Seeing this scene, Yang Hu and several people "chuckled" in their hearts at the same time, and heard Guo Qingzheng say that His Royal Highness resisted the enemy's sledgehammer with both hands, and he wouldn't be stupid this time, how could he become so wooden.

"Wechen is late, please punish His Highness!"

Yang Hu shook his head, threw away his ridiculous thoughts, walked in front of Chu Xiaofeng in a few steps, and knelt on the ground. Seeing this, Xiao Xiao also knelt on the ground with him, but didn't say a word. Seeing that Yang Hu and Xiao Xiao were both kneeling on the ground, Wang Ergou naturally knelt behind them, only Mu Changlan stood at the back rather embarrassed, looking at Chu Xiaofeng carefully.

"General Yang, Brother Xiao, what are you doing, please hurry up!"

Chu Xiaofeng was thinking about things, but suddenly saw everyone kneeling on the ground and hurriedly said. He sat on the bed, and when he saw a few people get up, he said, "Sit down." ”

"Wechen doesn't dare."

Yang Hu hurriedly bowed and saluted. Xiao Xiao and the others also stood respectfully, without meaning to sit down.

"Now there are no outsiders, you are all my good brothers who were born and died, why bother with etiquette."

Chu Xiaofeng smiled faintly, he woke up and found that his body was fine, and he felt very good.

"His Royal Highness Weichen Xie San."

Yang Hu and Xiao Xiao glanced at each other and whispered, and then several people sat on the chairs in the room. Chu Xiaofeng saw the last Mu Changlan, and suddenly asked, "Sister Lan, you said that you were taken to Tanglin County by your eighth uncle, do you know what he was doing in Tanglin County?" ”

"Brother Feng, to be honest, I just came to kiss, and I don't know what the third uncle is doing in Tanglin County."

Mu Changlan saw Chu Xiaofeng asking her, and her excitement just now was suppressed by this question. She thought that Chu Xiaofeng Chu Xiaofeng was worried about her, so she asked her about the eighth uncle. As soon as this eighth uncle was mentioned, Mu Changlan was angry, not only did she often harass the Tu Yu royal family, but she actually kidnapped herself this time.

"Your Highness, Weichen has learned of the intentions of the Eighth Prince."

Listening to Chu Xiaofeng's words, Yang Hu frowned and hurriedly said. He was originally going to report this matter to Chu Xiaofeng. It's just that he didn't speak, but Chu Xiaofeng asked first, which made Yang Hu a little surprised.

How did he know that Chu Xiaofeng was also because he heard in the Yongle Sect camp that the Eighth Prince of Tu Yu did not rush to help the Yongle Sect, but withdrew his troops halfway, which made him puzzled, and he wanted to understand some of the intentions of this Hongtu prince through Mu Changlan.

"Huh? Could it be that General Yang has made an unexpected gain from his thorough investigation of Tanglin County this time? ”

Chu Xiaofeng listened to Yang Hu's words, his eyes lit up, and he asked excitedly.

"Hey!" Yang Hu sighed, suddenly knelt on the ground again, and continued: "Weichen is incompetent, and he found out too late. ”

"General Yang, why is this? Get up and talk. ”

Chu Xiaofeng was shocked when he saw Yang Hu like this, and hurriedly said. He faintly had a bad feeling, the plague in Tanglin County was not a real plague, but a poison, could it be related to the Hongtu prince of the Tulu Kingdom?

"Wechen was ordered to thoroughly investigate the corrupt officials in Tanglin County, and at the beginning, all localities were very cooperative. But later, Weichen found many mistakes, first the person in charge of the unannounced visit found that the disaster in Tanglin County was not very serious, but it was very widespread. And then Weichen gradually found some clues. ”

Yang Hu was still kneeling on the ground, he thought about it carefully and said: "The county guard and other officials of Tanglin County are actually collecting a large amount of wealth privately, including the disaster relief silver issued by the imperial court. On the surface, they actively fought against disasters, but secretly they sent grain, grass and money to the eight princes of the Tuyu Kingdom. ”

"What!"

Chu Xiaofeng was shocked in his heart, his guess was really right. They went to great lengths to create the plague in Tanglin County, just to amass money and cover for them to transport grain and grass. Just imagine, who wants to stay in a place full of plague all day.

After Weichen learned that things were not good, he arrested several people with relatively large official ranks, such as the county guard, and tortured and interrogated, and finally learned that several of them turned out to be spies of the Tu Kingdom, and through the operation of the prince of Hongtu, they became important members of the court of the Great Zhou Dynasty step by step. That's why he planned this plague time and gathered wealth and grain. ”

Yang Hu paused slightly when he saw Chu Xiaofeng's frightened appearance, it was him, he was also shocked when he first learned the news, the county guard of the Great Zhou Dynasty turned out to be a treacherous figure, which was simply incredible.

"It's no wonder that the troops of the Tu Kingdom suddenly withdrew, it turned out that their whereabouts were leaked, and they had to withdraw halfway. can let a spy get mixed up with the position of Taishou, I'm afraid there are ghosts in the Great Zhou Dynasty. ”

Chu Xiaofeng narrowed his eyes, he was now sure that the Hongtu prince had broken off his cooperation with the Yongle Sect halfway because his whereabouts had leaked and he was afraid of causing a large-scale pursuit by the imperial court, so he fled in a panic. It's just that this time, they have indeed reaped great benefits, and I am afraid that it will not be long before the border will resume fighting.

Also, who are the ghosts in the court? What's going on, is Pang Wen an old thief? What's the matter, Wu Ya, that old thing? Or someone else. Chu Xiaofeng slowly closed his eyes, thinking a little tiredly. The experience of this time gave him a sense of unreality, one thing after another, as if it was about to crush his heart.

Just as there was silence in the room, there was a soft "creak" and the door was opened. I saw Guo Qingzheng said anxiously: "Zhang Feihe"

"Well, what's wrong with Zhang joining the army?"

Chu Xiaofeng immediately got up from the bed and asked loudly. After he had a fight with Zhang Fei, Zhang Fei disappeared, could it be that something happened to him.

"Zhang Fei, he said he wanted to see you immediately."

Guo Qingzheng was taken aback by Chu Xiaofeng's reaction, she ran too quickly just now, and she was a little panting when she spoke, she didn't expect Chu Xiaofeng to care so much about Zhang Fei. Zhang Fei saved Chu Xiaofeng's life, and this person is a downright person, Chu Xiaofeng admires him very much.

Chu Xiaofeng frowned, hurriedly put on a coat, and rushed to the hall with everyone. Zhang Fei was pacing back and forth anxiously, looking out of the door from time to time to see if Chu Xiaofeng was coming.

"Zhang joins the army, what happened?"

Before Chu Xiaofeng entered the house, he asked anxiously. He knew that Zhang Fei had decided to leave this time, he didn't want to see himself and Guo Qingzheng together, and if Zhang Fei could return here again, something big must have happened.

"I saw Emperor Zhu Qi and a young man rushing in the direction of Yanjing City, I don't know what he is going to do?"

Seeing Chu Xiaofeng and others coming, Zhang Fei hurriedly greeted him and said eagerly.

"What!"

Everyone was shocked when they heard this. Chu Xiaofeng's heart was suddenly raised to his throat. Although his father regarded himself as a pawn, he must not ignore his life and death.

He subconsciously touched his chest, and suddenly the whole person froze. That night, he was slapped by Emperor Zhu Qi, right in the chest, and he wondered why he was not hurt, it turned out that Emperor Zhu Qi slapped the gold medal for avoiding death. And before he fell into a coma, he clearly saw the cotton wool on his chest flying, and a big hole was broken.

It turned out that the death-free gold medal on his body was gone. If it is obtained by Emperor Zhu Qi, the consequences will be unimaginable.

"Your Highness, what's wrong with you?"

Yang Hu saw that Chu Xiaofeng was alone as if he had been struck by lightning, he was stunned, and asked with concern.

"General Yang, you quickly go and select a few people, and follow me to Yanjing City immediately. It is very likely that Emperor Zhu Qi got a gold medal for avoiding death! ”

Chu Xiaofeng said weakly. He was ninety percent sure of his guess at the moment that Emperor Zhu Qi must have won the gold medal for avoiding death.
