"What did Zhou Yi do with so much food?"

After Du Ning left, Chi Tang immediately put down his posture of "I know everything" and asked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince worriedly.

However, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince only shook his head: "Yan Songyun went south to check the whereabouts of this batch of grain. ”

Yan Songyun only guessed that the problem was in Luoyang Hanjiacang, and Du Ning confirmed this.

Last autumn, Hanjiacang should have put 3 million stone of grain into storage, but in fact it was 1 million stone less.

The million stones did not even enter the door of the granary, and were transported directly from the Tongji Canal by water.

According to Du Ning, the group of people who transported the grain were all from other places, appeared and left silently, and the source has not been found so far.

"Did he transport grain to Jiangnan?" Chi Tang remembered that Yan Songyun went to Jiangnan to take up his post.

Gangnam ......

It won't have anything to do with Yao Wuji back then, right?

How long has Yao Wuji been dead? Is there any end to it?

Li Yan said: "The Tongji Canal flows through Henan, Huainan, and Jiangnan, and it may also be unloaded on the way and transferred to land transportation. ”

Zhou Yi's private diversion of food may have two uses.

One is greedy for ink, selling grain for silver; The second is military, private military training.

If it is greedy for ink, in fact, it can be taken slowly, there is no need to wait for it to be transported away from the warehouse, and there is no grain merchant in the people who is bold enough to swallow so much official grain in one go.

So most likely for military rations!

Secretly embezzle official rations and secretly train private soldiers!

I've been practicing for more than half a year since last fall.

When will you choose to make trouble?

Li Yan looked at the girl in front of her.

She was lying on the table, her fingers dipped in tea, and she was concentrating on scribbling on the table.

The nails were not painted with danko, crystal pink, round and lovely, painted like a child, but the map of the flow of the Tongji Canal was almost the same as the map in his hand.

Li Yan pinched her fingers.

She looked up at him inquiringly.

Li Yan took her hand, brought it to her lips, took her fingers dipped in tea, and slowly licked it clean.

Chi Tang's face turned red: "Palace, Palace, Your Highness?" ”

This, this, this is too sudden, isn't it?

Why did you seduce her so suddenly?

Aren't they talking about very serious business?

Li Yan kissed her finger and said, "This batch of grain will not be transported so far to the south of the Yangtze River," training troops in the south of the Yangtze River, and the distant water cannot save the near fire, "It is likely that it will go ashore in Henan." ”

He also dipped his finger in the tea and circled a piece on the diagram of the flow of the Tongji Canal she had drawn: "It's about right here!" ”

Counting the days, Yan Songyun is almost here.

If the emperor really trains his troops secretly and plans to attack suddenly, then the most likely node to choose should be the day of his wedding!

He must find out the whereabouts of this secret army before he gets married!

"Huh?" The girl in her arms withdrew her finger and pointed to the piece he had just circled, "It seems to be Chen Liu?" ”

Li Yan hadn't noticed it yet, but after she reminded her, she took another look.

Indeed, the area he circled included three counties, one of which was Chenliu.

Chen Liujun, isn't it the ancestral home of his crown princess?

"Why don't you let my dad send someone back?" Chi Tang was full of interest and wanted to solve problems for His Royal Highness the Prince.

Li Yan smiled slightly: "So good!" ”

The girl laughed so hard that her dimples were exposed.

Li Yan was about to poke her dimples, but her fingers touched her cheeks, but the dimples suddenly disappeared.

"Anyway...... How could Mrs. Yuan know this? Chi Tang asked casually.

"Three years ago, Yuan Xin's mother was filial piety, and Du returned to Luoyang with her husband to keep filial piety, Yuan is a Luoyang family, and they always have to be familiar with Luoyang."

"Then why isn't it the Yuan clan or the Marquis of Wei County?"

Li Yan was speechless.

No matter how Du Ning knew about Han Jiacang, he should have made his own decision to see him today, at least hiding it from Yuan Xin.

"His Royal Highness agreed to Mrs. Yuan's invitation, just for this matter?" Chi Tang looked at him with burning eyes.

Du Ning just has a mark on the letter, so he is worthy of being personally received by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? Is there no one in the East Palace?

Li Yan saw that her eyes were full of "you confess honestly", so she couldn't help laughing a few times, hugged her and said, "No, someone is responsible for this matter, why do you need to ask in person?" It's just that this letter was peeked at by Li Shi and relayed to He Bi, Gu felt that the princess might also know, and there were indeed some antecedents, so he simply arranged it like this, so as not to misunderstand the princess. ”

Chi Tang blushed a little: "How does His Highness know ......?"

Li Yan smiled and said: "Li Shi is dedicated to you, why don't you be responsible for guarding the crown princess in the future?" ”

"No!" Chi Tang Zhengse refused, "I want to keep him by His Highness's side to monitor His Highness!" ”

Li Yan laughed: "Okay! Then monitor Lonely! ”

Since we are talking about this, we still have to ask what we should ask—

"I heard that Miss Du was the crown princess and His Royal Highness personally nodded?" Chi Tang asked, staring at him.

Why bother what she said outside, she also listened secretly.

Li Yan nodded and said, "Back then, as long as it was the crown princess chosen by His Majesty and all the ministers, there was no objection to it. ”

"Flowers at the spring banquet?"

Li Yan frowned: "What flower?" ”

"Uncle He said that one year at the Qujiang Spring Banquet, His Royal Highness folded a flower and gave it to Miss Du, and he forgot what the flower was." Chi Tang pursed his lips, a little sour.

Li Yan frowned and thought about it, and shook his head: "Lone has never sent the flowers for the Qujiang Spring Banquet, Lone has only given them to Xin'an, and Xue Twelve has never given them." ”

That must have accidentally fallen into the hands of Dunin.

Chi Tang nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Uncle He said that after Miss Du got married, His Royal Highness was so sad that he refused to choose a concubine. ”

Li Yan's face darkened.

Why!

"There were not many candidates who could satisfy His Majesty and all the prime ministers back then, after the Du family married another, there was no suitable candidate for a while, and the lonely has not yet reached the crown, so there is no need to rush to get married, so there is no need to choose a concubine for the time being, why bother talking nonsense!"

Seeing that his face was cold, Chi Tang was stunned all of a sudden, and immediately echoed: "Yes, yes! I don't believe what Uncle He said! If you dare to create rumors about Your Highness, you should get rid of the secret guard and never hire them! ”

Li Yan couldn't help laughing, holding her face and kissing her for a while.

The kiss made her little face crimson and panting, and then she turned to rub her lips, slowly slid down with her hands, and gently kneaded her shoulders.

"Lone didn't pay much attention to marriage before, anyone can do it, anytime, but with Ah Tang, it's different, it can only be you, the sooner the better......" Speaking of this, I couldn't help but feel irritable.

Nine days to go.

The secret army, whose whereabouts are unknown, has always been a major problem.

"Before the wedding, you will stay at home obediently, except for loneliness, no one will go out if you are looking for you." When leaving, Li Yan earnestly instructed.

Chi Tang nodded obediently, but he was a little disappreciative in his heart.

Everyone knows that she is busy preparing for marriage, not to mention going out with her, even if she comes to see her, she is gone.

However, as soon as she entered the house, a maid replied: "Miss Lu is here!" ”

"Which Miss Lu?" Chi Tang didn't react for a moment.

"It's Princess Shu."

Chi Tang stopped suddenly, was silent for a moment, and asked, "Did she say anything?" ”

"It seems that I want to ask the crown princess to go to the Great Mercy and Grace Temple tomorrow."
