"Even if it's Sima Fa, it may not admit it. Ma Jian asked, "Ning Ze only gave 12 days, how can he prove that he did it?"

Feng Qiao replied: "Sima Fa intercepted our military intelligence and pretended to be a minister's handwriting, so he must have left clues. The minister will find evidence as soon as possible and get rid of suspicion!"

"In that case, it's all up to the military advisor!"

"Whoa!"

Feng Qiao got the military order and immediately began to investigate.

He knows his layout well, and it's easy to find out what went wrong. So he ordered his subordinate departments to investigate who leaked the information and how this forged superstition came about.

Within three days, clues were found.

Some subordinates were negligent and leaked their mouths when drinking with "friends", which led to the leakage of important military information. The information was grasped and used by the enemy, and orders were forged to imitate Feng Qiao's handwriting in order to be fake.

After a search and arrest, those "friends" were arrested, and they decisively committed suicide by taking poison. Although the clues were broken, all witnesses who had contact with these people, including negligent subordinates, heard that the deceased had some Yunzhou accent.

The subordinate who had caused the situation by negligence was immediately dismissed from his post and imprisoned.

Although it was judged that it was a ghost from Lu Cong's side, there was basically no mistake, and it had nothing to do with Sima Fa. However, without accurate evidence, it is not easy to convince Ning Ze.

The time given by Ning Ze was not long, and most of it passed in the blink of an eye.

There was no way, Feng Qiao decided to go to Chengde County in person and explain it to Ning Ze in person. With your own eloquence, there should be no problem.

Ma Jianman was worried about his comfort, so he sent the general Pei Ji to accompany him to protect him.

Feng Qiao arrived in Chengde, and there were still two days left before the time limit set by Ning Ze. The Chinese army is already gearing up and ready to go.

Chengde County was extremely nervous, and many people decided to flee to the nearby mountains or surrounding counties for refuge.

In order to solve this problem, Feng Qiao didn't even have time to rest, and immediately left the city after arriving, and rushed to the Huaguo military camp to see Ning Ze.

Ning Ze met Feng Qiao in the tent, and asked him and Pei Ji in a deep voice: "The two of you came here today, can you have an explanation? Our important minister died innocently and tragically, and the murderer is your meticulous work, this matter must not be resigned!"

Feng Qiao took Pei Ji forward and bowed politely, and Shi Li said: "We are indeed responsible for this matter, but we are not giving an order, otherwise how dare we throw ourselves into the net? In fact, Sima Fa intercepted our military information and forged the handwriting to issue orders, which led to the tragedy! Here are all the results of the investigation, and I believe that with the wisdom of the prince, it can be known at a glance." Sima Fa wants to play with you and me in the palm of his hand, don't touch his way!"

Ning Ze took the investigation report handed over by Feng Qiao, read everything carefully, and roughly understood what happened: "From the investigation report, what Your Excellency said is correct. However, it is also a fact that your two people, Ding Liutong and Cao Ping, poisoned Geng Zhijun and his subordinates to death! Your secret work in our country to investigate the military situation has already violated Lone's bottom line. It is even more difficult to forgive the murder of important officials of the imperial court! Even if it is Sima Fa's strategy, you will not be able to escape the involvement!"

Seeing that Ning Ze was angry, Feng Qiao replied respectfully: "We will never shirk responsibility for this matter! All the people involved will be handed over to the prince and let it fall." In addition to Ding Liutong and Cao Ping, who were captured by the prince, we are willing to send all the members involved in the mistakenly issued military orders to Xizhou, hoping that the prince will not be in Sima Fa's plan, once the war between the two sides ignites, it will definitely be Lu Cong who will benefit!"

"King Gu understands!" Ning Ze said coldly, "It's just one yard to one yard, except that the people involved must be brought back to Xizhou by Lone, and you must hand over the detailed list of all the ambushes in Xizhou." Only in this way can Gu calm his anger!"

"This ......" Feng Qiao's face changed, this matter is not trivial. Obviously, Ning Ze wanted to take the opportunity to clean up the internal work of Xizhou, and he really couldn't be underestimated.

You must know that under Huaguo's strict defense policy, it is extremely difficult to lay out in Xizhou, and those who can successfully infiltrate or buy are all elite members, and they have made great contributions to the intelligence network of Nancheng, which is particularly important.

If Ning Ze wants to completely end this intelligence network, he will make Nan Cheng blind and deaf in Xizhou, which will have a huge impact.

But if he didn't agree, Ning Ze would also use this as an excuse to continue to attack Chengde, and take advantage of the weakness of Nancheng to march and annex prefectures and counties.

Come to think of it, it is better to accept it than to lose some of the details than to lose the state and county.

If the fine work is found out, you can still find a way to continue to plant it there in the future, and the Chinese army will enter your own state and county, and it will be difficult to get back the occupied land!

Thinking of this, Feng Qiao arched his hand and said, "As long as the prince retreats, we are willing to hand over the list." ”

Unexpectedly, Feng Qiao agreed so happily, Ning Ze was a little surprised. In other words, he must have tried to excuse himself: "Your Excellency is reasonable, and Lone is very pleased." As long as the murderer of Geng Yuanjun will be arrested, handed over to Gu for disposal, and avenged Geng Yuanjun, all the internal work in Xizhou will be cleared, and this will be the end!"

Feng Qiao breathed a sigh of relief and said respectfully: "In fact, the real culprit behind the scenes is that Sima Fa, and he is also the one who should be most responsible for Geng Yuanjun's death!"

"I know it in my heart, I don't need your advice!" Ning Ze knew that Feng Qiao said this to lead the contradiction to Sima Fa, so that he could pursue it with Lu Chong's forces, and he had the meaning of borrowing his strength to fight back against Sima Fa.

He wants to use Ning Ze as a gunman and give Sima Fa a color, Ning Ze is not a character to be used by them, how can he be fooled?

Although Lu Cong's forces also have the problem of young and strong population, the situation is much better than that of Nancheng, and the most alien races who surrender to them, in order to solve the population problem, Lu Cong has already made a big sign of the alien army, and it is really not so easy to deal with.

If Huaguo went to fight Lu Cong at this time, Nancheng would become a mountain watching the tiger fight.

Sending Feng Qiao and Pei Ji away, Ning Ze immediately passed down the list of assignments, and asked the entire territory of Xizhou to immediately hunt down and purge all the Nancheng meticulous works.

Xizhou officials immediately took action, and the whole state carried out detailed search and arrest work.

Feng Qiao sent another batch of "criminals" over, together with Ding Liutong and Cao Ping, at the disposal of Ning Ze.

Ning Ze kept his promise and decisively returned his troops and horses to Xizhou, and the two sides ended the confrontation for the time being.

Of course, he would not let go of Sima Fa, who was planning to make trouble, so he took advantage of this opportunity to let the intelligence agents lurking in Nancheng and Liang secretly incite both sides.

Sure enough, under the continuous incitement, Ma Jian and Lu Cong had a rift because of this matter, and the relationship that they had made through marriage collapsed in an instant.

Ma Jian couldn't help but send someone to Liang to ask why he robbed his military intelligence and murdered the border minister of China to frame him.

Of course, Lu Cong's side refused to admit it, accusing Ma Jian of making something out of nothing and slandering himself.

The two sides were originally an alliance, but now there are cracks in the relationship, and there are some small frictions on the border, although it is a small fight, but it also shows that the relationship has deteriorated.

Ning Ze retreated to Xizhou and beheaded all the people involved in the case to comfort Geng's spirit in the sky and appease the Geng family.

After that, it died down and became extremely quiet.

In the gradual quarrel between Ma Jian and Lu Cong, it seemed to be hidden and unnoticed.

It doesn't mean that he doesn't have the idea that Sima Fa, the mastermind who killed Geng Zhi, is not responsible.

In fact, in order to take revenge on Sima Fa, Ning Ze also carried out secret work, using telegraph machines to contact underground intelligence agents lurking in the territory of Nancheng and Liang, trying his best to provoke forces on both sides and further escalate the separatist situation.

even deliberately spread this situation to Tang Niu's forces, wanting to disconnect the tripartite alliance.

Although it is no problem for China to confront the tripartite forces, a united alliance is, of course, better dealt with after splitting.

The intelligence officers lurking in the territory of the three forces used all their resources to take advantage of the bad relationship between Ma Jian and Lu Cong, and tried their best to create a conflict. Don't miss any opportunity!

Ning Ze would not be stupid enough to directly attack Liang Guo and let Tang Niu and Ma Jian sit and reap the benefits of the fishermen.

If you want to be a fisherman, you should also do it yourself, and ask the other party to do the thing that the snipe and the clam are fighting for.

At first, although there was some gap between Liang and Nancheng, there was a lack of necessary opportunities to provoke the two sides to go to war, after all, the two forces were not stupid, and they knew that it was not appropriate to start a war at this time, so everyone had to be patient and solve the problem of the young and strong population in the country first.

However, with the disdainful efforts of Chinese intelligence officers, a breakthrough was finally found.

When the relationship between the two forces was not good, the Lu family, who married Ma Jin, wanted to go home to visit relatives, but Ma Jin disagreed. After the husband and wife quarreled, the Lu family secretly bought off the servants around him and took advantage of Ma Jin's inattention to lead people to escape.

Upon learning of this, Ma Jin immediately chased after him, after all, Lu was pregnant with his child in his belly.

The Lu clan fled to the border of Ziwu County day and night, and was about to arrive in Yanzhou.

When the intelligence officers of the Chinese State who were lurking in Yanzhou learned of this, they immediately disguised themselves as soldiers of the Liang State and pretended to be ordered by the higher authorities to meet the Lu family.

Where did the Lu family know the truth or falsehood, and when they saw "their own soldiers and horses" at the border, they were immediately overjoyed, and asked them to take themselves back to Miliang immediately to see their father.

Just when Ma Jin chased this side, he had to step forward to stop him.

Unexpectedly, although these fake "soldiers of the Liang Kingdom" had few people, they had already set traps at the border.

When Ma Jin caught up and persuaded his wife, he was unaware of the hidden arrow for a while, but fortunately he didn't hit the vital point, but he was injured and fell off the horse, and his life was unharmed.

Those "Liang State soldiers" asked the Lu family to leave quickly, saying that they were to stay behind the palace.

Lu was a little worried about her husband, but when things came to this point, she couldn't pull her face and turned back to Nancheng, so she decisively fled to Gu'an County.

After Lu left, these "Liang soldiers" fought fiercely with Ma Jin's subordinates, and the enemy retreated.

The people were repulsed, but the Lu family successfully escaped into Yanzhou and entered the territory of Liang State, and the injured Ma Jin could not lead people to chase after him.

Ma Jian's own brother has this kind of thing, which is unbearable.

Not to mention that the Lu family is pregnant with the flesh and blood of the Ma family, and they fled back to Liang at such a time, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not use this child as a threat to persecute Nancheng. Secondly, Ma Jin chased his wife and was shot and injured by the Liang army, which is really too deceitful!

In anger, Ma Jian couldn't keep his senses, so he had to ask Lu Cong for an explanation.

When Lu Cong learned about this, he was the one who shielded him as soon as he could, although he didn't know who the soldiers who went to pick up his daughter were, as long as it was in line with his own wishes. On the one hand, he ignored Ma Jian, and on the other hand, he ordered people to find these soldiers and give them a reward.

The situation further intensified, and Ma Jian, who was impatient with unbearable anger, finally tore his face with Lu Cong, and in order to save face for his brother, he mobilized the army to set off from Qiangyang and march to Datong County, Yunzhou.

Feng Qiao couldn't persuade him, so he could only give advice strategically to ensure that he would not suffer too much in the fight.
