He did not enter through the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, but took advantage of the dead of night to carry Zheng Xiaoye over the wall and enter.

Not surprisingly, as soon as he climbed over the wall and entered the City Lord's Mansion, the guards hiding in the shadows surrounded him.

"Who is it? Dare to break into the city lord's mansion at night! The armor-clad guard yelled.

"It's me, Han Jiu." Han Jiu took out the token.

"Is that you?" The guards recognized Han Jiu, but didn't he go to the capital with the young lady to marry?

"Something happened to Miss?" The guard looked at the child Han Jiu was holding, and his face changed greatly.

"Is the general here? I have something important to report. Han Jiu asked with a wry smile.

"Old General Mo happens to be in the mansion, I'll take you there." The guard did not dare to hesitate, and immediately led him towards the study.

The other guards quietly hid in the darkness, silently guarding the City Lord's Mansion.

In the study, General Mo was still looking at the city defense map, and after the report of his subordinates, Han Jiu led Zheng Xiaoye to the study.

With a plop, Han Jiu knelt down straight, and said guiltily: "General, my subordinates are ashamed of the general and didn't protect the queen." ”

Zheng Xiaoye looked at General Mo with some nervousness, is this the grandfather that his mother said?

General Mo's gaze moved to Zheng Xiaoye, looking at the eyes similar to those of his granddaughter, and the killing aura in his body was much more restrained.

A few years ago, for the sake of the royal family, in order to contain the Mo family, he married the youngest granddaughter of the Mo family, Mo Huixi, as the queen, and the monarch's order could not be violated, no matter how unwilling the Mo family was, they could only send Mo Huixi to marry.

thought that with the background of the Mo family, Huixi could live well in the harem without being favored, but now it seems that he wants to be bad.

"That faint monarch dotes on the imperial concubine Bai Mei'er, and usually doesn't take Miss in his eyes, but since Miss gave birth to the third prince, she has been using non-stop means to poison the third prince and the young lady."

"This time, I took advantage of the autumn hunt to send dead soldiers to assassinate Miss and the Three Princes, the Three Princes and the Miss were unfortunately separated, I and a few brothers protected the Three Princes to hide everywhere, but the chasing soldiers behind us continued, and the capital was all people who wanted the lives of the Three Princes, and in desperation, I had to take the Three Princes to Mobei." Han Jiu said the matter briefly with hatred.

Old General Mo sighed softly, so many people have been assassinated, I'm afraid the emperor doesn't want this child either.

"You did the right thing, if you continue to stay near the capital, Xiao Ye will definitely die." General Mo's voice was a little heavy, the emperor would never allow a child with the blood of the Mo family to inherit the throne.

"Good boy, come to grandpa, did your mother tell you anything?" General Mo lovingly waved his hand to Zheng Xiaoye and let him come to his side.

Zheng Xiaoye rubbed in front of him, his eyes unconsciously brought closeness, and he whispered: "My mother said that if I come to Mobei one day, I won't let me go back." ”

"Grandpa, doesn't my mother want me anymore?" He asked with some trepidation.

"Your mother didn't want you." General Mo tugged at the corners of his mouth, trying to show a smile.

"When you're older, you can go to her."

"Really?" Zheng Xiaoye was a little unconvinced.

"It's true, grandpa doesn't lie to you." General Mo touched Zheng Xiaoye's head, "You will live here in the future." ”

After talking to Zheng Xiaoye again, the child fell asleep soon due to lack of energy.

General Mo looked at his grandson who was sleeping on the soft floor, his face was soft, and the cold and iron-blooded aura of the battle-hardened field filled the entire study.

"Since the royal family is unjust, don't blame me for being disloyal!" Old General Mo's voice contained a thick anger, and Han Jiu, who was kneeling on the ground, immediately lowered his head.

Now who in the world doesn't know that the royal family is dissatisfied with the Mo family, and has deducted military salaries for several consecutive years.

If it weren't for the fact that the generals sent to Mobei couldn't hold Mocheng and couldn't withstand the attack of the grassland people, the Mobei Mojia would have been beheaded by the royal family on a charge.

"The Bai family...... The order went down and asked the people in the capital to make some trouble for the Bai family. General Mo said indifferently.

"General, we came back this time thanks to a ......" At the mention of Ye Lanming, Han Jiu's face was a little strange.

Miss Ye, her behavior is too out of line.

Han Jiu carefully explained a series of things about meeting Ye Lanming, which aroused General Mo's curiosity.

"Are you so bold?" Curiosity appeared in the old man's eyes.

"Just do as she says, and I'll go and check the bottom of this girl in person when I'm free." He commanded.

"Yes, General!" Han Jiu received the order, but there were turbulent waves in his heart, did the general actually take a fancy to Miss Ye?

As a subordinate of the general, he knew the meaning of this sentence too well.

There is no rule in Mocheng that women can't show their heads, and there is even a female official!

Ye Lanming, who woke up, didn't know that he had been remembered by the old general Mo who had experienced the vicissitudes of the world.

She got up before dawn, originally planning to touch the surrounding terrain to see if there was an area suitable for cats to live.

Unexpectedly, I got a big surprise.

Ye Lanming squatted on a small hillside, looking carefully at this fault layer, the layers of bedding were clear, and at first glance it was sedimentary rock.

Originally, it was nothing, but the last layer of slightly grayish stone caught her attention.

Quickly ran back and got a hoe back, Ye Lanming began to chisel against this small hillside.

Knock, knock, knock......

After a while, the gray rock layer was chiseled out, and Ye Lanming gently stroked the stone, generally affirming that this was what she was thinking.

Just in case, she lit a small fire and put small gray stones in it.

After waiting patiently for a while, she used her hoe to pluck out the small stone.

Looking at the small red stone, Ye Lanming's eyes bloomed with ecstasy, it was coal! It's really coal.

She looked at the ground below with burning eyes, and luckily, there would be a huge coal mine down there.

"What an unexpected joy...... Ye Lanming muttered, thinking about how to report the existence of the coal mine without revealing himself.

As for monopolizing coal mines and mining them privately?

She didn't want to die at a young age, and it didn't do much use for her to ask for this coal mine.

But Mocheng is different, she believes that with this coal, Mocheng will not suffer heavy losses in this winter because of the battle with the steppe people.

In Ye Lanming's memory, this cold winter brought great threats to both the grassland people and the Mocheng people.

In the more northern places, many people froze to death, and the supplies for the winter were even less pitiful, so they launched an attack on Mocheng in the depths of winter.

On the Mocheng side, because of the cold and the shortage of food and grass, the army was in a very poor state, and after a month of fierce fighting, it took a great price to repel the steppe people.

Now that their family has come to Mobei, they naturally don't want to be attacked by the grassland people.

Thinking about it, Ye Lanming already had a plan in his heart.
