Chapter 17: Plotting the Lore
First of all, where can Rong Qing's enemies in the Thunder Country go to find them? Even if they find it, how can they rush to Kyoto City in the Windy Country to commit the crime within six days? I'm afraid that it will take more than six days to find someone from Kyoto City to Lei Country, right?
Also, if it is confessed that he instructed this matter, what chance does he have to defend himself in front of his father and the queen mother?
Moreover, although Na Rongqing is now living in Kyoto City, his ability to kill and conquer in the early years must not have been left behind. Although the defense in the general's mansion is not tight now, and they are just some incompetent domestic servants, General Rong himself alone is enough to deal with those thieves.
First question...... It can be solved. You don't necessarily have to go to Lei Country to find someone, so why do you really do it? It's enough to get some people to pretend to be people from the Thunder Country, but they must be dressed up to look like each other, so that people can look like people from the Thunder Country and not have the slightest flaw.
The second question...... Actually, it's easy to solve. Just find something that can hold the hand of the person, so that they would rather die than confess to him. In fact, this matter can be left to the shadow guards of the Prince's Mansion to do. These shadow guards, even the queen mother, grandfather, and uncles have never seen them, let alone the queen mother and father? When the Queen Mother and her father saw it, they wouldn't see that this was his person.
As for the third question...... In fact, it's easier to do, as long as you are careful and don't let General Rong find out? The General's Mansion occupies a lot of land, if Miss Rong is taken away, she doesn't shout or shout, who can be alarmed? Who can come out and intercept?
Seeing the joy on the prince's face, Qin Yingyue had already seen that the prince had not only adopted her suggestion, but had also come up with a specific approach. But he pretended to be nervous and asked, "Your Highness...... What about the idea of a concubine? If the idea of the concubine is not good, I hope that His Royal Highness will not blame the concubine and forgive the recklessness of the concubine. ”
"Hey, how could Hongu blame you? You are so dedicated to the sake of this palace, it is too late for this palace to hurt you. The prince said.
As he spoke, he got up and patted her on the shoulder: "You are obedient, this palace goes out to do errands." ”
"The concubine sends off His Royal Highness...... Your Highness, ...... in the evening You...... Will you come back? Qin Yingyue asked shyly.
"I can't say for sure today, I don't know how things are going. You rest first, you don't have to wait for the main palace. The prince said.
"Yes...... Your Highness, don't be too tired, your body is important. Qin Yingyue's voice and demeanor were very lost.
But after the prince left the courtyard gate, Qin Yingyue slowly got up, but there was no trace of loss on her face.
Out of the prince's mansion, the prince went straight to the Changle Mansion in the west of the city.
But instead of entering through the main gate, he walked through the back door and went straight to the courtyard of Song Xu, the prince of Changle Houfu and the little marquis. If he walked through the main entrance, he would definitely come to greet him, and he didn't want to make such a sensation. It's not good if it's reminiscent later.
Although this son of Changle Houfu is one year younger than him and only twenty this year, he has some experience. In his early years, he was stationed in Biansai with Rong Qing and King Ling for two years, and he always respected Rong Qing as a "teacher", and his relationship with Rong Qing was very close. returned to the dynasty at the same time as Rong Qing, and after returning to the dynasty, Rong Qing lived in a simple place, but he was a little more estranged.
On the contrary, he was very close to him in terms of speech preferences, often corresponded, and once persuaded Rong Qing to let Rong Qing get married. But Rong Qing's old stubbornness didn't listen.
Song Xu is seven feet tall, and he was born with the handsome air of a scholar. On weekdays, the literary style is also good, and I like to learn some dancing swords and sword styles, but it also coaxes many women in Kyoto City to admire it.
Seeing that Song Xu was practicing his sword under the willow tree in the courtyard, and the sword flowers made the willow leaves fly, the prince clapped his hands and smiled: "Okay!" Good! Childe is really good swordsmanship! ”
As soon as he heard that it was the voice of the prince, Song Xu hurriedly threw down the sword in his hand, trotted all the way to the gate of the courtyard, and saluted: "I don't know that His Royal Highness the prince is coming, and he is far away to greet him...... How did the minions at the bottom do it, I don't know how to spread it! If you neglect His Royal Highness the Prince, you will definitely punish them heavily when you turn around! ”
"Hey, the prince doesn't need to be polite," the prince said, "It was the palace that told them not to pass it on." Childe, hurry up and excuse yourself. ”
Song Xu got up and said, "Since it is the intention of His Royal Highness the Prince, I will disturb them below." His Royal Highness is kind-hearted, and he is ashamed of it. ”
The prince smiled and looked at the people around him. When Song Xu saw this, he immediately understood. Hurriedly dismissed the maidservants who were waiting on the sidelines with tea sets, water basins, and fruit plates.
The courtyard was quiet, and Song Xu led the prince into the house.
The prince knows that there is no need to sell Guanzi in this matter, and if he sells Guanzi and goes long-winded, he may not be able to find out any news. Therefore, as soon as he sat down, he talked about the border pass.
Of course, it can't be said too obviously, so naturally it won't be said directly, "This palace wants to send someone to pretend to be a bandit from Lei Guo and rob Miss Rong."
"Bengong was studying in the house, and suddenly read about some things in the border pass and Lei Country, and I was very interested for a while, so I came to you to talk about it."
Hearing what the prince said, Song Xu naturally knew everything and said everything. No matter what the prince asked, he could answer it well.
After chatting for an hour, the prince already understood the characteristics of the people of Lei Guo and what happened in the years when General Rong was stationed at the border pass.
Lei Guoren actually has no other characteristics, just one word - strong. The men of the Thunder Country are all stronger than the ordinary people of the Wind Country, and the others are nothing.
In terms of dress, the style is similar to that of the Wind Country. It's just that because the people are strong, even people with some money are reluctant to wear clothes with exquisite materials, and it is not very convenient to act, so they generally prefer coarse linen clothes. Even sometimes when the prince of Lei Guo goes out on patrol, he will wear coarse linen clothes like the people, for convenience.
From Song Xu's words, the most useful information was the case that General Rong dealt with before returning to the dynasty. Back then, Rong Qing and King Ling worked together to capture several leaders of one of the largest population groups on the border of Lei Country, and since then this organization has been dismantled.
The reason why that group has been able to commit crimes in several towns on the border of the Windy Nation without being detected is because they use a kind of "drunken dreams" incense. It is said that the fragrance of this spice is extremely long, and the effect of the medicine lasts for a long time, and those who fall into this incense will fall into a deep sleep, even if the gongs and drums are ringing in their ears, they will not wake up.
The prince quickly integrated these two messages in his mind. Of course, these two messages alone are not perfect, if you add the fragrance of this "drunken dream", you can achieve absolute security, and you can better take yourself out.
"Do you know how this 'Drunken Dream Chief' was developed? With such an elegant name, the smell must be extremely good. The prince said.
