"His Royal Highness the Prince, his subordinates have come to restore their lives!"

"Get up! Say, how did the action go this time? ”

"Back to His Highness, his subordinates are incompetent, and they haven't been able to find out any news from the other party!" Jiang Shan knelt on one knee and bowed his head.

"What? You can't even find out the news about whether Liu Zhongqing has any contact with the Xiongnu? The prince's face suddenly became a little ugly: "What's the use of this palace raising you?" ”

When Jiang Shan heard the murderous aura and disappointment revealed in the prince's words, his heart trembled slightly, and he immediately knelt down on one knee again.

He knew very well what kind of irritable person the prince in front of him was, and he also knew that his life was in the hands of the prince now, and if he made the prince angry, he was afraid that his little life would be wiped out in an instant.

Thinking of this, cold sweat broke out on Jiang Shan's forehead, and he quickly explained: "The prince forgives his sins." ”

"But the lower officials found out that the second prince had personally visited Liu Zhongqing, although our people failed to follow up with Liu Mansion. But when the second prince came out of Liufu, he looked very excited, what deal should have been negotiated...... So Xia Guan guessed that maybe the second prince had joined forces with Liu Zhongqing. ”

"Joining forces? Hum! It's ridiculous! A bunch of rubbish! ”

The prince shouted coldly: "Continue to investigate, it is bound to find out his relationship with the Huns." ”

The death of Su Zhaoyang, although it was done by the second prince Li Yuntian.

Li Yunxing also knew that Liu Zhongqing was absolutely inseparable from the Xiongnu.

He has to be prepared in advance for what might happen next.

"Yes! The lowly duty must do his best to get to the bottom of this investigation! ”

"Well, I'm looking for you today, and I have a few other things to tell you." The prince got up slowly, paced to the table and sat down.

"Please ask the prince to command." Jiang Shan stood respectfully behind the prince, waiting for the prince's instructions.

"Is there any news from Jiang Chang?" The prince raised his eyes and asked.

"Prince Qiqi, according to Jiang Chang, Shu Qingling's fleet was already on the way back, and deliberately stayed for several days in order to pretend to be full of goods. Now the return speed is also slower, and it is expected that it will be another month to return to the capital. ”

Li Yunxing tapped his fingers on the table, Jiang Chang had been sent by Li Yunxing to set off with Shu Qingling's fleet.

According to Li Yunxing's plan, this fleet incident is also an opportunity, so that he can take the opportunity to take back the transportation rights of the river, so as not to have too many dreams at night.

"Well, you send a letter to let them pay attention at any time, and the other party will soon find an opportunity to do it."

"Yes!" Jiang Shan nodded and took the order.

Jiang Shan frowned slightly, and said with a slight hesitation: "Prince, the other party has not moved, could it be that they noticed something strange and gave up?" ”

"Huh! Abandon? Li Yunxing sneered, shook his head and said, "Then you underestimated Liu Zhongqing's courage and courage!" There's no way he's going to give up. ”

"Even if he knows that it was a trap set for him by this palace, he will jump into it."

"Because he knows better than anyone else that even if there is a one-in-10,000 chance that this palace will send a large amount of grain and grass back to the capital, it will be a great failure for him."

"The last thing Liu Zhongqing wants to see now is that the grain and grass from the palace arrive in the capital safe and sound! The grain and grass have arrived, and the flood crisis in Jingzhou can be solved, so it will be difficult for Liu Zhongqing to pry the throne of the palace again. ”

Jiang Shan suddenly realized that the prince had already understood everything.

In this case, why did the prince go to great lengths to let Shu Qingling transport grain and grass back to Beijing in the name of a civilian fleet?

Isn't that an extra move?

Seeing that Jiang Shan was silent, Li Yunxing seemed to see through Jiang Shan's thoughts, and said with a cold smile: "Jiang Chang, Jiang Chang, you are really not smart enough!" ”

"Subordinates are stupid! I hope the prince will make it clear! Jiang Shan bowed down and hugged his fists.

Li Yunxing said lightly: "If the palace transports the grain back to the capital, I'm afraid that the old diehards in the court will try their best to divide this batch of grain and grass, after all, who doesn't want to eat alone?" How could Hongu tolerate such a thing? Therefore, in order to prevent this kind of thing from happening, the only way is to hide this batch of grain and grass first. ”

"Only by keeping this batch of grain and grass hidden in the shadows will those old things not dare to attack its idea easily."

"The subordinates are stupid, and they really don't understand the prince's good intentions." Jiang Shan sighed and said respectfully.

Li Yunxing waved his hand, "It's okay, you were an eagle dog in captivity by your father before, and you have no ability, but you don't know how big the world is, and there are people outside the world, so this palace is willing to spend a lot of energy to cultivate you!" I hope you don't disappoint Hongu! ”

"Yes! The subordinates must do their best to die and repay the prince for cultivating kindness! "Jiangshan hurried to show his loyalty.

Li Yunxing nodded and didn't reply.

No one is born with it, and not all of them are happy with themselves when they are in their own hands.

Even now, Li Yunxing has not seen Jianghe, and he is still staying in Yangzhou, while receiving the granary, while monitoring Liu Chen's movements.

"What about the Jingzhou anti-thief? How's it going? Li Yunxing asked instead.

Jiang Shan replied: "There are nearly 1,000 anti-thieves in Jingzhou, many of them are township soldiers, their leader is named Mu Linhan, who was the head catcher of the Yamen before, and after the flood, he led his generals to kill the county order and seize power, and established an organization called Qingfeng Village. ”

"Oh? Headcatcher? Li Yunxing sneered, he didn't know that a mere head catcher could have such ambitions.

"This person is not as simple as a headcatcher. Go! Check the life history of this Mu Linhan, the more detailed the better. ”

"Subordinates obey!" The country retreated.

Li Yunxing looked out the window from a distance and muttered, "Mu Linhan...... It's a new name. ”

After Jiangshan left, Jin Xi came in from outside the hospital, and at the same time brought a new news to Li Yunxing.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Qiqi, Princess Chunshan will return to the palace tomorrow, according to the number of Wu Dynasty etiquette, you will attend Princess Chunshan's reception dinner tomorrow."

Li Yunxing forgot about Princess Chunshan.

Princess Chunshan, formerly known as Li Zhipan, is a sister and brother who share the same mother as the second prince.

Three years ago, after their biological mother died, Li Zhipan, in order not to delay Li Yuntian's future, took the initiative to ask Emperor Wu to be willing to keep filial piety for his mother for three years.

Although Emperor Wu couldn't bear to be only sixteen-year-old Li Zhipan guarding the imperial tomb alone, he endured three years of loneliness and loneliness.

Moreover, she has passed the age of marriage, and it is time to think about marriage.

But Li Zhipan was filial to his mother, and was willing to keep filial piety for her for three years to repay the kindness of her upbringing, and in the end, Emperor Wu couldn't resist her and agreed.

even crowned her as the princess of Chunshan, which means to praise her good character of being pure and good.

I didn't expect three years to pass so quickly.
