Chapter 43 Disaster relief funds are robbed
After a night of tossing, it was noon when Yi Xiao woke up on the second day, and the bride was going to enter the palace with Xuanyu early in the morning on the first day of marriage to offer tea to the emperor and queen. But it was too late to toss last night, Xuanyu felt sorry for Yi Xiao, and he was reluctant to wake Yi Xiao up. He explained it to the palace. And the emperor also likes Yi Xiao very much. It doesn't matter if you ask for peace or not.
As soon as she got up, Xuanyu came back to accompany her to eat after handling government affairs. The two of them were having dinner when Xiao Mei came in. I wanted to say something to Yi Xiao, but I saw that Xuanyu was talking and stopped.
"You say, no outsiders." Yi Xiao picked up Xuanyu's bowl and weighed a bowl of soup for him. A faint opening.
This sentence made Xuanyu's heart very happy and warm.
"Xiao Bai just brought back the news, that is, a group of thieves from Yushan have come out, specializing in robbing people in the past, and those thieves are all cunning and strong in martial arts. robbed us of the support money and food we were going to send to Jiangcheng. ”
"What?! It's actually up to me to make up my head! Yi Xiao slapped the table, stood up, and said angrily. This kind of money is also robbed!
"Master, how do you solve this face?" Xiao Mei said lightly, she knew that her master was angry, she rarely saw her master so angry.
"I'm going to meet these bandits myself. It's been a long time since I've stepped forward to solve the problem myself. Yi Xiao spoke.
"I'll go with you." Xuanyu, who had been eating silently on the side, put down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand and suddenly spoke. After speaking, he added: "Anyway, in the past few days since we got married, I have already handed over the affairs of the military camp to the adjutant general to deal with."
Xuanyu reached out and took Yi Xiao's hand and smiled warmly.
He had just gotten married, and he didn't want to be separated from his girl.
"Okay." Yi Xiao clenched Xuanyu's hand in reverse.
Those bandits were cunning and strong in martial arts. Xiao Mei was worried that it would be too dangerous for Yi Xiao to go alone. Now that her uncle is accompanying Miss, she is also much more relieved.
At this time, Xuanyu pulled Yi Xiao to the study, and after entering the study, Xuanyu took out a map from the shelf, spread it on the table, pointed to the icon on the jade mountain above, and asked lightly: "Yushan itself is a mixed place, and it is not the fastest and best way to go from Xuancheng to Jiangcheng, why do you take this?" Xuanyu looked at the map and frowned.
"Because there was a landslide in the area where the fastest and best road was located two days ago, the road is currently blocked by falling boulders, and it will take time to clean up. Then he walked away from Yushan. Yi Xiao patiently explained.
Xiao Mei, who followed the study and stood aside, said lightly at this time: "Princess, Xiao Bai guesses that someone used this group of thieves to steal the life-saving disaster relief money provided by Yulou for Jiangcheng."
"Well, I guess so." Yi Xiao probably has some answers in her heart, but what she is not sure is whether it is King Rui or her good father behind it......
Xiao Mei opened her mouth again: "Lord Wang, princess, I don't know if those thieves are really the ones who robbed the disaster relief funds, whether it is or not, the people behind them must also be very dangerous."
"Don't worry, I have a way with the prince." Yi Xiao's face was indifferent, and a smile was revealed, which reassured Xiao Mei. After Yi Xiao finished speaking, he took Xuanyu's hand and went back to the room to pack his things and prepare to leave.
Before leaving, Yi Xiao will assassinate the two people who are good at disguise, Xuannu and Mo Nan called over, and Yi Cheng Xuanyu and Yi Xiao stayed in the palace. They will take them by surprise and take them by surprise and take them by surprise.
The two of them stayed until the night, and Yi Xiao also changed into men's clothes and became the owner of Yulou, named Xiao Yu. I have to say that this name made Xuanyu happy for a long time.
The two of them took Xiao Bai, Yun Zhe, and ten secret guards respectively, and set off for Yushan overnight.
After walking all night, a group of people arrived at Yushan at noon and on the night of the second day.
Yushan Land is located at the junction of Xuancheng and Jiangcheng, and if it is not for a fast horse, it will take two or three days to reach the normal speed. On the way, two fast horses were tired and died, and it took only one day and one night to reach Yushan. Snakes are rampant in Yushan, it is a place where fish and eyes are mixed, there are fugitives, there are bandits, maybe a Qinglou woman has an identity behind her, and none of the people who can survive in Yushan are ordinary and innocent. The imperial court can't hold it down either. Suffice it to say, even a bun seller on the street may be a murderer who escaped from prison.
"Master, let's go to the inn in front for a night's rest. Then in the evening we went to find out what was going on. Xiao Bai stopped in front of a simple inn, turned back to the two people behind him, and said.
"Spring Welcome Inn. Okay, that's it. Yi Xiao glanced at the plaque on the door where the paint had not yet dried, and said lightly.
In this way, the group dismounted, settled the horses, and entered the inn. When Xiao Er saw the group coming in, he walked up to the group and smiled politely. Xuanyu and Yi Xiao only glanced at this little er, and they knew that this little second was not simple, and his martial arts foundation was not bad.
Then, the shopkeeper of the inn also came, a man in his fifties, with a very good belly. It is not difficult to see that this is completely the life of a landlord, and it is not simple. After seeing the shopkeeper, there was an inexplicable smile on the corners of her and Xuanyu's mouths.
"Feather... Yu ......" The shopkeeper's originally smiling face collapsed instantly after seeing Yi Xiao, and his eyes were full of fear and fear.
"How? You didn't expect to meet me again, did you? But I'm not here to chop you up. With a wicked smile, Yi Xiao walked up to the shopkeeper and whispered in his ear: "If you can satisfy us, then the previous grievances will be written off." If not......" Yi Xiao's tone revealed a fierce murderous aura.
The shopkeeper who felt this murderous aura reached out and touched his neck...... He couldn't forget the dagger that nearly slit his throat......
wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and said tremblingly, "Yes...... Be...... The little ones will definitely make the best of their hearts. ”
Yi Xiao was the only one who made him feel such a strong deterrent...... Makes him breathless.
"Shopkeeper, won't you take us to the guest room?" As he spoke, Yi Xiao had already returned to Xuanyu's side.
"Yes, yes...... The small ones lead the way. A few distinguished guests came with me. The shopkeeper sobered up from Yi Xiao's shocking power, and a flattering face led the group to the guest room.
The rooms arranged by the shopkeeper for the group are the best rooms in the inn, and the rooms arranged for Yi Xiao and Xuanyu are the best rooms in the entire inn. and personally pushed open the door for Yi Xiao and Xuanyu and sent them in.
Yi Xiao, who entered the guest room, looked around the surrounding environment, looked clean and elegant, nodded to the shopkeeper, and then said lightly: "Stay, I have something to ask."
Yi Xiao motioned to the shopkeeper to close the door, and then sat down with Xuanyu in front of the tea table. The shopkeeper stood alone in the middle of the room, his palms sweating. I was overwhelmed.
