breakthrough

After a short time, Luo Lian took out ten books from the data room of the household department, "These are the case files of all the disasters in the Great Xia Kingdom in the past few years, one a year. ”

Each took a copy and began a quick browsing.

It records the details of the disasters that have occurred in the past few years, as well as the amount of silver and grain that Emperor Natsu has provided for disaster relief, and the name of the adult who went to the disaster relief.

Lin Changsheng explained while watching, "Xia Zhongmo took all the affected children away, took them to Liujia Village, trained them to be killers, and told those children: The emperor did not send people to relieve the disaster, their misery was caused by the emperor, and instigated those children to hate the emperor and the officials of the Great Xia Kingdom, and aimed to assassinate the emperor and the prince for the rest of their lives." ”

Lin Changsheng still has a question that he hasn't said, so far, they haven't seen these children, where did they go?

Luo Lian paused for a moment and sighed, "It's despicable!" ”

"Why didn't my father kill him in the first place, it was really a wildfire that could not be burned, and the spring breeze blew and reborn."

Mu Jiu was a little strange, "Changsheng, what does it have to do with us checking these case files here?" ”

"According to those people, the children were sent over one after another, we can check the corresponding time, analyze where the child is, and then check the names of local officials, at least we can screen out those people who are Xia Zhongmo."

Mu Jiu didn't know much about the affairs of the court, but the crown prince and Luo Lian suddenly understood that it was necessary to screen it.

Until the evening, Lin Changsheng and the crown prince compiled a list.

Lin Changsheng saw that Mu Jiu was a little tired, so he sent Mu Jiu home first, and then went to the palace with the crown prince and handed over the list to Emperor Xia Yuan.

Emperor Xia was furious, "How can this be true! ”

The prince coughed, in fact, speaking of which, they are also responsible, Xia Zhongmo secretly did so many things, but they didn't notice it at all.

Either the brothers fought each other, or they only saw the border and the capital, and they never cared about some remote places.

At most, the officials at the bottom came to report that where the disaster occurred, they sent people to provide relief, and they never noticed that there were some secret things going on around them.

Emperor Xia came back to his senses and blamed himself very much, "It's my fault, my health is not good, but I have been reluctant to let the prince do it, if I had delegated power at the beginning, it might not have been such a result." ”

Lin Changsheng didn't speak, and the prince had to go back to Emperor Xiafang, "Father, don't mention the past things, now we need to look forward and strive to solve these problems, I will go to do it immediately tomorrow morning, and check all the villages like Liujia Village that refuse outsiders to enter." ”

Even if you startle the snake, you have to drive this poisonous snake out of the Great Xia Kingdom.

Emperor Xia was very satisfied with the prince's attitude, "Pay attention to yourself, don't you know that those children are around us, pretending to be ordinary children." ”

After saying that, he remembered something, and then shook his head.

"Father, did you remember something, you can't hide it from me and Changsheng, otherwise you missed something and regretted it."

"I... I thought that some time ago, didn't the palace recruit a new group of little eunuchs, although they all had household registration certificates, but what if those household registration certificates were forged by local officials? ”

The crown prince and Lin Changsheng glanced at each other, and saw shock in each other's eyes.

However, the other party did not do anything, and there was still a remedy.

The crown prince immediately decided, "Father, immediately gather the little eunuchs who were recruited last time together in one name, and bring those people to the scene tomorrow to recognize them." ”

Lin Changsheng didn't have much hope, "Those people won't necessarily point us to real people." ”

"Didn't you torture today? Hongu still doesn't believe it, they are not afraid of torture. ”

Lin Changsheng was not so optimistic, "I have to look for Jiu'er when I go back, I arrested a group of women before, their eyes have been blinded by poison, let Jiu'er detoxify, find them to recognize people alone, and then gather everyone who recognizes them to make a comparison." ”

"Why didn't you say it earlier."

Lin Changsheng was reluctant to say it, because those women were still in Los Angeles, and he didn't plan to torture people, but to give them a good time when the dust settled.

But the development of things has exceeded his expectations, if he does not embarrass those women, the next royal family will face a catastrophe, once the royal family is destroyed, the world will be in chaos, and the lives will be ruined.

The prince understood Lin Changsheng's thoughts, and without waiting for the next morning, the prince sent people out that night to secretly investigate the officials on the list.

Lin Changsheng originally wanted to go to Nanluo Country as soon as possible, but the current situation did not allow him to leave, so he stayed after discussing with Mu Jiu to assist Tai

Find out the whereabouts of those children.

The Imperial Forest Army escorted the women and children back to Beijing, and Mu Jiu didn't care about what happened after they detoxified them, and played at home with Qiuqiu every day, and at the same time ran to the Tai Hospital to prepare for going to Nanluo Kingdom.

Lin Changsheng and the crown prince started from many aspects, but only twenty little eunuchs were found.

Recently, there has been no draft in the palace, and some little palace maids have not been recruited into the palace, so there are still thirty children who have no idea where to start for the time being.

There was no news from Shu Yuezhai's side at all, but Lin Fifteen found some news about the actions of the Star Luo Sect from the Dao.

The headquarters of the Star Luo faction is in the southern country of Nam, and each country has some branches.

In the General's Mansion, the prince and his core figures were also there, Mu Jiu asked Li Xiaotao to take the ball away, and formed a circle with Lin Shifu and Ming Yi and others.

Lin 15 handed Mu Jiu a pamphlet, which recorded the locations of the Star Luo Sect's branches in several nearby countries.

A familiar place name came into Mu Jiu's eyes: Wheat City!

Mu Jiu suddenly realized: Obviously, they have arranged a large number of people in Maicheng, and the price of medicinal materials in Maicheng is still controlled, if the matter is pushed on the head of the Star Luo Sect, it will make sense.

Lin 15 explained, "Probably the people arranged by Xia Zhongmo were pulled out by you one by one, and others will only show their feet if they don't have enough hands, and I have a great harvest from going to Maicheng this time." ”

"Oh?"

Lin Fifteen glanced at Lin Changsheng, "Xia Zhongmo is indeed a member of the Star Luo Sect, and he should have joined shortly after being defeated by the emperor, twenty."

A few years have passed, and his status in the Star Luo Sect is not low, and now he is not called Xia Zhongmo, but has the same surname as the royal family of Nanluo Kingdom, surnamed Nan, called Nan Xia . ”

Just from the changed name, you can hear how much hatred he has for the Great Xia Kingdom and the Xia Fang Emperor.

This is to take the destruction of the Great Xia Kingdom as a lifelong goal!

The prince was furious, "Insolent! ”

But now that the other party had indeed forced the Great Xia Kingdom full of loopholes, he quickly calmed down and listened carefully to what Lin Fifteen said.

Lin 15 said, "I have already sent someone to investigate the source of income of the Star Luo Sect, except for a few known minerals, there is no progress for the time being. ”

After speaking, he handed a booklet to the prince, "These are the locations of the minerals I have recorded, and I will trouble His Royal Highness the prince next." ”

The crown prince took it, "I thank you for the people of Great Xia. ”

Lin Fifteen didn't have too many expressions, but Mu Xu, who had been silent, suddenly spoke, "I've been talking to the Star Luo Sect before, and they also received some assassination orders, one is 100,000 taels of silver, because the success rate is 100%, and the business is very good." ”

Lin Changsheng knew about this, and added, "Not only in the territory of the Great Xia Kingdom, but also in other countries, don't look at the people of the Star Luo Sect all over the world, but the core figures have never shown their true faces except for the local hall masters, they are both huge and mysterious, and the most terrifying thing is that maybe someone around us is the core figure of the Star Luo Sect, and we don't know why they are so loyal to the Star Luo Sect!" ”

Lin Shifu glanced at Mu Jiu with complicated eyes, "Maybe it's poison." ”

Mu Jiu, as a master of using poison, immediately understood what Lin Shifu meant, and explained by the way, "Using poison does not necessarily exchange sincerity, and there is another kind of sincerity to eat poison, just like those children, who have suffered and been bewitched by others." ”

The rest of the words Mu Jiu didn't say when he gave face to the prince, not because of how stupid the hearts of the people were, but because Xia Zhongmo could expel them with better conditions than the royal family, such as giving them silver, such as teaching them to plant, so that they could live a good life.

The crown prince heard Mu Jiu's voice, "I'll go back and discuss with my father to see if I can transfer a group of people to learn planting from the farmer, and then send them to various places." ”

Lin Changsheng gave his opinion, "Your Highness can also spread the word and let everyone who wants to learn planting learn." ”

As he spoke, Mu Jiu grabbed something, "Your Highness, are those farmers who have the best planting techniques in the Great Xia Kingdom?" ”

The prince nodded, "They specialize in managing planting, and each of them is a master planter transferred from all over the world. ”

Mu Jiu hurriedly scolded directly, "What the hell do you think!" People who know how to plant don't teach farmers to plant in various places, but they get the capital to grow food for your royal family, no wonder Xia Zhongmo can buy people's hearts! You royal family is really harmful! ”

Mu Xu coughed and reminded Mu Jiu not to go too far, in case the prince holds a grudge.

was scolded by Mu Jiu, the prince not only didn't get angry, but also listened, "I know, I'll go and discuss with my father right away." ”

Then he said in a low voice, "Actually, this is not my father's pot with me, it was my ancestors who were worried that the planting masters would be taken away by other countries, so they gathered in the capital, but later it changed its flavor and became the best food for the royal family." ”

Whether it was Emperor Xia and the crown prince's pot or not, they didn't change anything for this, in Mu Jiu's opinion, it was their fault.

Especially in the past few years, there have been constant wars and banditry, if the royal people have a little more energy to manage the Great Xia Kingdom, they will definitely be

It's a lot better, but they don't.

Lin Shifu looked at Mu Jiu with relief and gave her a thumbs up.

The prince was a little depressed, isn't this family afraid of death? One by two, without taking him into account at all.

Not wanting to continue to be vented by these people, the prince bluntly changed the topic, "If it is easy to deal with poison, in the name of the Tai Hospital, all the officials in the capital and Los Angeles will come to check the pulse, and the poisoned minister is basically a person from the Xingluo faction." ”
