Chapter 503: Suspicion

"Master Jiang, I have to rush back as soon as possible." Mu Hongshang couldn't wait for Jiang Wenbin to sort out her thoughts carefully, she hurriedly stood up and saluted Jiang Wenbin: "Mr. Chen and Mr. Sun went to the Sun Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of War, and they asked me to rush back as soon as possible after handing over the letter to you." Your Excellency, you know everything, and I leave it to you. ”

"Has the messenger already left for the north?" Jiang Wenbin immediately asked, "The warning of the sixth prince must be notified to An Guogong as soon as possible. ”

"Mr. Sun is going to use an emergency pigeon whistle." Mu Hongshang replied: "The news will be delivered before sunrise." Do you have anything to tell you? ”

Jiang Wenbin frowned and thought about it, but he still couldn't grasp the thoughts in his heart, he had no choice but to say to Mu Hongsheng: "Not at the moment, please tell Grandpa Guo, I will do my best in the affairs of the DPRK and China." In addition, if there is any news in the north these days, please send someone to deliver the news as soon as possible. ”

"Good!" Mu Hongsheng nodded: "Don't worry, my lord." ”

After saying that, Mu Hongshang turned around and walked out, she just took a step, but stopped again, turned around and said again: "My lord, these people will definitely not choose to be in the north when they do something to my Mu family." According to the calculation of the day, my fifth brother and younger brother should have had an accident not far from the north, I think it is very likely to be in Xuanzhou, Xuanzhou used to be the northern feather mountain. Therefore, I wondered if it was possible to issue a green card order to the Xuanzhou Governor in the name of the Ministry of War, so that ......"

"Wait!" Jiang Wenbin's brows jumped suddenly: "Jueyu Mountain!" ”

The faint thought in his heart suddenly became clear, it was not the first time that the Rong Di people had crossed the border to loot supplies near Jueyu Mountain! The last time was a long time ago, and a large number of military funds were also lost, and Mu Chengfang, who was in the north at that time, was reprimanded by the emperor because of a negligence in defense and allowing the Rongdi people to secretly cross the border.

That incident a long time ago was also a trap! At that time, Zhao Zhiliang, the head of the treasury of the Ministry of War, was unfavorable in managing the treasury, and the inventory of the Ministry of War was beautiful, but in fact, the loss of mildew was serious, and when the Shuobei general Mu Chengde and Rong Di went to war, Zhao Zhiliang panicked and asked for his mentor Li Xiang, wanting to get through the trick.

In order to keep his students, Li Xiang and Zhou Shangshu of the military department at that time jointly made a "bandit" bureau, and plundered the materials escorted to the north by the military department.

At that time, the emperor was furious and sent a Qin messenger to investigate thoroughly, but there was no result in the investigation, and finally came to the conclusion that the Rong Di people secretly crossed the border to loot, and this basin of dirty water was splashed on the head of the northern defenders.

Zhao Zhiliang's previous affairs were successfully covered up in the past, all the way up, this matter was covered tightly, until Jiang Wenbin was the head of the treasury of the Ministry of War for a long time, only to accidentally find out the clue, when Jiang Wenbin secretly found out the truth, got the treasury list of the Ministry of War, and the confessions of the two treasury officials, he originally wanted to use this to impeach Li Xiang and Zhou Shangshu, but Xie Changjing was afraid that Jiang Wenbin would be bitten back by Zhou Shangshu, so he stopped.

Later, Xie Xiang's father and son participated in the bureau Zhao Zhiliang, and overthrew Zhou Shangshu through the ordnance case, which greatly damaged Li Xiang's vitality, and Jiang Wenbin also achieved his goal, so the evidence remained in Xie Changjing's hands, and Jiang Wenbin never asked again.

Nearly three years have passed, Zhao Zhiliang was demoted, Zhou Shangshu has long since fallen, Jiang Wenbin no longer cares about this dusty public case, but Mu Hongsheng's words suddenly hit his dusty memory.

Jueyu Mountain, Rong Di people loot!

Similar keywords instantly made Jiang Wenbin connect the long-standing old case with today's events.

The sixth prince left a book with the words "the trap is not a Rongdi person", which is so similar to the robbery case that Jiang Wenbin has to be suspicious.

Where did the supplies go?! This is the most important thing. If it is really the same as the case back then, then the purpose of this bureau may not be to get rid of certain people, but only to cover up certain things.

When Jiang Wenbin was thinking about it, Mu Hongsheng and Mr. Wu were already about to walk to the gate of Jiang's mansion, and he hurriedly chased them out, but fortunately there was still time.

"Miss, wait a minute!" Jiang Wenbin chased after him in a hurry, and he couldn't even care about the cloth shoe that was originally on his feet.

"Lord Jiang?" Mu Hongsheng heard Jiang Wenbin's call and immediately turned around.

Jiang Wenbin didn't care about his embarrassment, and he didn't even have time to stand firm, so he said anxiously and quickly: "Quickly send a message to the north, let them track down whether all the materials have been looted!" If I'm not mistaken, most of what is lost is food. ”

Mu Hongshang was slightly stunned, and then immediately asked, "Lord Jiang is saying that my fifth brother and Jinyi may have met bandits?" ”

"I'm not...... Actually, it's ......" Jiang Wenbin opened his mouth, but found that it was difficult to express the doubts in his heart clearly for a while, and he waved his hand at Mu Hongsheng with aion: "I can't say a word or two." In this way, the eldest lady will go back first, and I will go back and change my clothes, and follow immediately, I have something to discuss with the gentlemen of the house face to face. Belch...... What is the current condition of the old lady? What is her spirit when something like this happens? Can I meet with guests? ”

"I haven't alarmed my grandmother yet." Mu Hongshang replied: "It was already midnight when Biying came back, and I hesitated for a long time, but I still felt that it was really ...... to wake up my grandmother and tell her such news."

"That's what the eldest lady said." Jiang Wenbin immediately nodded in understanding.

"If you have any problems, you can consult with my mother first." Mu Hongshang said: "Mother plans to enter the palace early tomorrow morning and ask the emperor to send troops to find the whereabouts of the fifth brother and younger brother." ”

"It's okay or fine." Jiang Wenbin didn't care about the rules and etiquette, and he didn't care about paying attention to the middle of the night, how inappropriate it was for him to go to see the Duchess whose husband was not at home. Now is not the time to pay attention to these, he turned around and ran back, and hurriedly waved his hand at Mu Hongsheng: "Eldest lady first." I'm going to change into my official uniform, and I won't have time to go home tomorrow morning, so I'll go straight to court from your house. ”

Mu Hongshang didn't delay, turned around and got on the horse directly, and hurried back with Mr. Wu. When they returned, Duchess An Guo had already met two of the Xiaojin guards.

After seeing the Duchess of Anguo, the face of the Xiaojinwei officer, who had always been calm, turned white with fright, and after they came out of the Anguo Mansion, they immediately divided into two ways, one hurriedly returned to the palace to find Yu Chengzhi, who was on duty in the palace, and the other went to the Yamen of Xiaojinwei.

At about the same time, several important ministers in the court, as well as King Yi, King Xin, and General Zhenguo, also got the news.

After Sun Shangshu of the Ministry of War met the gentlemen of the Anguo Mansion, he hurriedly changed his clothes and went to the Yamen of the Ministry of War, and when he arrived at the Ministry of War, the scribes on duty at night were already in a mess.
