Since about two years ago, bandits have appeared in the south of Mandarin Province one after another, and they have been eradicated many times.

The Mandarin Prefecture Guard Station sent troops to suppress bandits more than ten times, and lost no less than 2,000 people before and after.

The loss of ordnance, armor, and horses is also about the same as the number of guards, which is a coincidence.

However, Wei Xun did not find any record of the whereabouts of the damaged ordnance armor, and the damaged ordnance armor disappeared out of thin air.

The losses were so great, but the results were also brilliant, killing more than 6,000 rebels, but not taking prisoners.

There can be no fakes in the feats of war, and there must be a head as proof.

With more than 2,000 bereavements and so many military exploits, the silver taels involved will be a terrifying number.

Wei Xun felt that it was obviously unusual.

I don't feel much unusual when I look at each dossier alone.

But when you put the numbers for two years together, you can feel that the numbers are a little scary.

And the loss of personnel is counted, but why do ordnance and war horses also suffer the same proportion of losses? Is it too much of a coincidence?

There's a problem here, or a big problem.

Because all this needs to be reported at the prefect's yamen, and the prefect needs to confirm it with a seal.

Combined with this somewhat weird and strange case,

It shows that once there is a problem, it will be a big case of collusion between the military and the government and involving countless people.

But where did the ordnance and armor and horses go?

Some cases that had been shelved came into Wei Xun's sight, and most of them were demands for land to be seized by cunning.

And all these seized lands seem to be near a single area---

They are all not far from the farmstead of Prince Kang's mansion.

At that time, Wei Xun couldn't trust anyone in the official mansion, so he entrusted the guards to find someone to verify it privately.

It was determined that the vicinity of Prince Kang's Mansion Farm was in the control area at the moment, and the scope far exceeded the area of the farm.

And they saw that there were a lot of palace guards patrolling, far exceeding the limits of the imperial court.

And it is fully equipped, and it is mostly cavalry.

Wei Xun was frightened, and he immediately wrote a letter to his mentor Wang Zimu and attached a recital.

He didn't dare to take the post road, so he ordered the head of the guard to take his two brothers into Beijing secretly and present his mentor to him.

Out of an abundance of caution, agree with the guards before leaving:

After leaving the territory of Mandarin Province safely, he immediately sent someone back to inform him.

But after the agreed time, I didn't see anyone who came back to report it.

Wei Xun immediately understood that something might be wrong, and he immediately transferred all the evidence he had collected.

Then, as expected, he soon became a corrupt person and was thrown into prison.

Xia Zhi was speechless for a long time, he didn't expect the matter to be so serious, they were the world's enemies in Tangnan Mansion at the moment.

But I can't listen to it and believe it, I only listen to Wei Xun's words, and I need to verify it myself.

"Where's the evidence?"

Wei Xun glanced at the others, and said the answer to Xia Zhi.

"Really?"

Xia Zhi asked a question with a surprised face, and Wei Xun gave him an affirmative look.

The evidence cannot be verified at the moment, so you can only check the farm in Prince Kang's mansion, in fact, you can see it at a glance.

However, it must be more heavily guarded at the moment, and it is not easy to go and see it, so wait for the news from the outside first.

Staying in a confined space with nothing to do, the time is harder than expected.

When there was finally movement at the entrance, everyone grabbed their knives with a look of vigilance in surprise

"Don't be nervous, if we are discovered, it will not make much sense for us to resist in this small space"

It was the owner of the house who came down, and he brought food and some not-so-good news to everyone

"The guards of the guard began to search the whole city, so I didn't dare to come down until it was dark."

"Well, as expected, what else is there to hear?"

The other party glanced at Wei Xun with a hesitant expression, which made Xia Zhi's heart sink.

Wei Xun said in a hoarse voice

"Don't have any scruples, I've been prepared for the worst"

"The body of Lord Wei's mother was hung outside the city, and the yamen said that she was an old man because her son was guilty.

I felt ashamed of my ancestors, so I committed suicide, but the wound was in the abdomen, as if it was injured by a sharp weapon. ”

"Ridiculous, Liu Sandi, this evil thief, deceives people too much"

said that he was prepared for the worst, but there are not many sincere people who can really deal with it indifferently, Wei Xun's tone is firm

"My mother came from a humble background, she has always been timid, and she usually doesn't even dare to kill chickens, how can she dare to commit suicide with a sharp weapon? It's really ---."

Before he finished speaking, Wei Xun was stunned suddenly, and then knelt down on the spot with a sad face and kowtowed to the ground

"Mother, it's a child who is unfilial, and even the mother died under the knife,

But the child is really helpless, and I hope that the mother will go all the way."

His performance made Xia Zhi thoughtfully step forward to help him up

"Lord Wei's Day Mourning"

Wei Xun's emotions were well controlled, and after getting up, he was already resolute and calm with sadness and indignation

"Liu Sandi is in a hurry, someone from the DPRK will arrive in a few days, he is forcing me to take the initiative to show up,

I believe that tomorrow will come to my wife, and if I don't achieve my goal, then my children will follow.

It's a pity that he underestimates his own official too much, it's okay, you sit down to eat, don't worry about him"

Wei Xun sat on the ground indifferently with an awe-inspiring and righteous attitude, which aroused everyone's side eyes.

In the face of his family and country, he chose everyone without hesitation and calmly, but gave up his small family a little cruelly.

Xia Zhi gave him a deep salute, sat down to eat, and the others sat down with mixed tastes, and the atmosphere was full of depression.

Xiao Kui's side will take four days to arrive, and even if he has the heart to urge, it will take at least three days to arrive, and there is no time to save people.

Besides, the other party will not leave the opportunity and time to save people, so this is not to be counted on.

Wei Xun was robbed, the other party will definitely strengthen precautions, and it is no longer realistic to continue to secretly save people.

There are not many people on his side, even if his combat power is good, he can't come and go freely in thousands of troops.

Therefore, it is no longer feasible to rescue by force, and besides, it is necessary to protect Wei Xun and not leave without permission.

Xia Zhi found that he was powerless, unless Duke Wei came in person, or took the command of the guard post of Tangnan Mansion, he would have a chance to save people.

Or --- can contact that killing god, he definitely has the ability to rob people, but he can't contact the other party himself.

This is all an unrealistic assumption, why is he not a master of cultivating to the heavens? Otherwise, none of this is a problem---

Unconsciously, the cake in his hand was clenched into a ball by him.

No--- I can't sit here and wait for the tragedy to happen, even if I can't save people, I have to find a way to determine the truth as soon as possible to ensure that the wicked will be punished.

Xia Zhi suddenly got up and walked over to Huoda and whispered to him

"Brother Huo, I'll go out, it's not certain when I'll come back, you stay here to protect Wei Xun, don't leave unless this place is discovered"

"Understand, be careful yourself"

"Well, you don't all sleep, keep an eye on Wei Xun in case of accidents"

"Good"

Xia Zhi changed into a black suit and didn't hold a weapon, and the knife was actually a burden to him.

Walking on the ground on the summer solstice, he glanced at the direction, and then his figure flashed, and disappeared into the night in a blink of an eye.
