"Why?" Zheng Ji asked directly.

Hu Chong closed his eyes, as if he was accumulating strength: "Under the mountain...... There must be Shannanwei soldiers in ambush. Your Highness, once you descend the mountain, you will be regarded as a henchman of the bandits of Tongyun Village."

Zheng Ji didn't think of this.

"Could it be that if the main hall stays on the mountain, it won't be regarded as a bandit?"

Hu Chong's reason did not convince her.

She took the soldiers of Changding to go up to the mountain in advance, this is a secret, neither Yun Cheng nor the forces behind it expected.

In this case, how could there be Shannan Guard soldiers guarding the mountain?

Unless...... These Shannan guards are in ambush, and there is another group of people.

No matter from which point of view, it is the most dangerous for her to stay in Tongyun Village, and it is very likely that she will face the attacks of both the bandits of Tongyun Village and the soldiers of Shannan Guard.

Hu Chong was the governor of Lingzhou Prefecture, and as a general in the army, it was impossible not to know this.

She wanted to know the real reason why Hu Chong had stopped her from going down the mountain.

Hu Chong fell silent, and he struggled to open his eyes to look at Zheng Ji: "Your Highness, you ...... Do you want to uproot the shortcomings of Shannanwei in one fell swoop?"

"Shannanwei's disadvantages? What are you referring to?" Zheng Ji asked rhetorically.

Hu Chong's question is strange, what does it have to do with her going down the mountain to remove the disadvantages of Shannanwei?

However, in the face of General Shannanwei in her previous life, she was a little more patient with Hu Chong.

"The disadvantages of Shannanwei are not the defeat of the bandits...... Not in a private armory, but in ...... And in ......" Hu Chong gasped, his expression gradually becoming excited.

"In ...... The power of the army is stolen by man!"

He was so excited that he touched the wounds on his body, and his face was distorted a few times.

In contrast, Zheng Ji appeared very calm.

Hu Chong knows more than most people, but in his opinion, Shannanwei's collusion with bandits in Liyunzhai and the private establishment of an arsenal are not real problems.

The real problem of Shannanwei is that the military power has been stolen!

Zheng Ji instantly understood what Hu Chong was referring to, and was silent for a while.

After coming to this mountain, after meeting Zheng Xun, she realized very clearly: What Hu Chong said was indeed very right.

Whether it is the failure of Shannanwei to suppress bandits, or the appearance of an armory in Tongshan, in the final analysis...... It's all military power stolen!

The dynasty had sixteen guards and two major protectors, and the military power was divided among the eighteen generals.

Although the eighteen generals have military power, this is because of their father's "division of the system and the exclusive responsibility", but the situation here in Shannanwei has obviously deviated from the normal situation.

In other words, what can really drive the Shannanwei soldiers has quietly changed.

Otherwise, the cloud village would have been destroyed a long time ago, and there would be no armory.

Hu Chong knew too much, and the key clues that Zheng Xun said were also on this person, Zheng Ji originally planned to ask carefully after going down the mountain, but now it seems that ......

"If you think that the power of the army has been stolen, who is the thief?" Zheng Ji asked.

Hu Chong shook his head: "I...... I don't know ......."

This answer was expected by Zheng Ji.

No matter how much Hu Chong knows, he is only a Lingzhou Governor now, how can he know who is really driving Shannanwei?

"So, whether or not the main hall goes down the mountain, what does it have to do with the disadvantages of uprooting the mountain guard?" She asked again.

The matter of military power is too sensitive and too huge, even if she wants to have the heart to solve the matter of Shannanwei, it will cost a lot of manpower and material resources, let alone overnight. Ь.

Listening to Hu Chong's meaning, it seems that if she stays here in Tongyun Village, she can solve these problems.

Hu Chong's voice was slightly raised, and he said, "Your Highness, what do you think...... It is necessary to uproot the shortcomings of Shannanwei...... After all, what do you do?"

What to do?

There are too many things to do, track down the escaped bandits and the vanished armory, find out who among the Shannanwei generals was involved in this matter, and find out who is behind Shannanwei......

There are too many things to do, so she feels that Hu Chong said that it is impossible to pull it out in one fell swoop.

Hu Chong didn't seem to care about Zheng Ji's answer, and had already asked himself: "Your Highness, I think ...... You only need to do one thing."

"Oh?"

"Your Highness, this matter is too simple...... Just...... Just replace General Shannanwei!"

Zheng Ji saw that Hu Chong's hand had been put down, and he clenched it into a fist, and the green tendons on the back of his hand were protruding.

It's hard for him, an injured person, to have such a fierce action.

Hearing this, if Zheng Ji didn't know what Hu Chong wanted to say, it would be too much to say.

She smiled and said, "Do you mean that if the main hall stays in Liyun Village, you can kill Ling Hanxiao openly?"

"......" Hu Chong's eyes shrank, and he couldn't speak at all.

Hu Fang on the side was even more discolored, feeling that his neck was cold, and he couldn't wait to hide himself.

Help, what is Your Highness talking about? Were these words something she could hear?

She didn't dare to listen, and she was not qualified to listen!

"Your Highness, you ......" Hu Chong finally found his voice, feeling that he couldn't answer it: "You say that, this is really ......."

"What? Isn't that what Hu Duwei meant? Everyone knows how difficult it is to replace the general of the first guard; No one knew who was behind Ling Hanxiao. Tell me, why did the temple kill him? Why do you want to kill him openly?"

Although she also knew that Shannanwei had such big drawbacks, and Ling Hanxiao, a great general, couldn't get around it, but these were just speculations?

What if, Ling Hanxiao didn't know?

Perhaps, Ling Hanxiao was also used?

Hu Chong and Zheng Xun didn't see the arsenal in their mouths, and she didn't fully understand the details of the cloud village.

Why are you in such a hurry to kill a Shannanwei general?

"Your Highness, Ling Hanxiao has dealings with Yun Cong, and this armory was set up by Ling Hanxiao at the behest of Yun Cong. Their privately forged weapons are hidden in the Jingling Bo Mansion! These are what Brother Pei and I have found, and the evidence is also in the Jingling Bo Mansion......

"Ling Hanxiao has set up a private armory, shouldn't he be killed? If you kill Ling Hanxiao, the generals of Shannanwei will be leaderless, and whether His Highness wants to suppress the bandits or cleanse Shannanwei, it will be easy." xь.

Zheng Ji nodded and said, "If it's true, it really should be killed." But after killing him, the gains outweigh the losses."

Even if Ling Hanxiao deserves to die, it needs to be decided by her father, not by her, the princess.

Moreover, even if Ling Hanxiao is killed, can it really solve the shortcomings of Shannanwei?

Maybe it will be self-defeating, and then it will become dead without proof, but it will help the people behind it plug the flaws.

Therefore, Hu Chong must not have told the truth, or rather, what he really wanted to say has not yet been said.

"Hu Duwei, you don't need to go around in circles, just say it." She is patient with Hu Chong, but this patience is limited.

Hu Chong didn't know what he thought, and his expression was indescribably indifferent.

Immediately he said, "Your Highness, if I say ...... If you don't kill Ling Hanxiao at this time, you won't be able to leave Tongzhou alive?"
