"This is natural! What's more, just yesterday, the lord had summoned us to arrest these people!"

Xiao Jingmao smiled, but his face became serious, Yang Chenglong felt that the atmosphere became solemn, and he quickly stood up straight and listened.

"Who is it?"

Yang Chenglong asked.

If it is an ordinary person, he only needs to inform Wang Lu of the police station, and naturally go back to deal with it, but this time it is Xiao Jingmao to deal with this matter, which is really incomprehensible.

"See for yourself!"

Xiao Jingmao's eyebrows furrowed, and he picked up the envelope in his hand and put it in Yang Chenglong's hand.

Yang Chenglong's eyes swept and he was stunned for a moment: "It's them?"

It would be fine if it was an ordinary person, but Cao Fu's name appeared in this envelope, which made them extremely surprised why this envoy of the Southern Song Dynasty was actually linked to Mongolia.

"According to the documents we collected from Pingliang Mansion, it has been proved that they were the ones who caused the Anding City incident. ”

Seeing that Yang Chenglong was puzzled, Xiao Jingmao explained.

Yang Chenglong asked, "If He Yuan and Karahan are fine, but then Cao Fu is extraordinary, what are you going to do with it?"

"Then He Yuan and Karahan live in Chang'an, we only need to order Wang Lu and send a mounted policeman, and naturally we can arrest them. But that Cao Fu was a guest of the Song Dynasty, and he was also quite powerful, and he was guarded by the forbidden army of the Song Dynasty, so he was not of the same generation. ”

Xiao Jingmao tightened his lips and tongue, and his tight eyebrows meant that he was thinking about how to reduce his losses.

If this operation goes wrong, allowing that guy to escape, and causing losses to the situation in Chang'an City, this is his sin.

Xiao Jingmao didn't want to be stained, so he resigned!

"In that case, then you should also discuss it with Wang Lu. After all, I was in charge of railway construction, and I was not proficient in how to catch criminals. I'm afraid you're still asking the wrong person!"

Yang Chenglong felt that the other party cast a look at him, although he wanted to give advice, but he practiced martial arts only for health, not for technical combat, and since he became the Minister of Railways, he rarely had the opportunity to exercise, so naturally he had no suggestions.

Xiao Jingmao suddenly smiled and said, "This is also true." Without saying goodbye to Yang Chenglong, he took off the coat on the hanger and draped it on his body, pushed open the door and stepped out of the office, and walked towards the place where Wang Lu was.

"Well, is that how you treat your friends?"

Yang Chenglong pursed his lips, but his eyes rarely swept over the desk with a little greed, this burgundy desk is made of pear wood, quite sturdy and durable, although it has been destroyed for more than 20 years, it is still bright as usual, but the color on it is a little dull.

"I don't know when, I can sit here too!"

Unlike those who just want to make a living, Yang Chenglong has always had a great ideal since he joined the Red Phoenix Army, wanting to change the world, and even more eager to leave a name in history and let the world admire him.

Becoming the prime minister is naturally the best way for him to achieve himself!

In the distance, Xiao Jingmao had been gone for a while, and seeing that Yang Chenglong had not left, he asked, "What's wrong, Brother Yang?"

"Nothing, just something that needs to be sorted out. ”

Put away the last trace of vision, Yang Chenglong also left from here, although the Northern Expedition is over, but the subsequent construction is also on the agenda, especially the third phase of the railway project, which can also be started.

Now, it's far from time to rest.

A round of scorching sun hangs in the air, although the weather is still cold, but the sun on people's bodies can also make people feel warm.

Walking under the scorching sun, the two of them also felt that their bodies began to become warmer, and they did not have the cold touch they had before.

The feeling of victory, it's so good!

——————

Qingyang Province.

Looking at the paperwork in his hand, Chen Ziang felt that Mount Tai, who had been pressed on him before, seemed to be taken away directly by a gust of wind, and he was also radiant with considerable joy.

"It seems that this time, it's really over!"

"That's right! When the army arrives, it will be able to settle down in earnest. Liu Bingkun sighed.

The good news of Pingliang Mansion quickly spread here, and after getting the news, the bandits who had been making noise around seemed to have disappeared completely, and there was no movement anymore.

The Mongols had retreated, and their strength alone could not compete with the Red Phoenix Army.

Chen Ziang looked happy and said with a smile: "Fortunately, we insisted until this time, otherwise we would have let those guys succeed in advance, but I am afraid that the consequences will be unimaginable!"

Although he didn't know who the whole plan was, he also understood that the other party's purpose should be to seize Qingyang Mansion, and continue to fight against the Chifeng Army with Qingyang Mansion, but now that the Jingchuan Front has collapsed, Pingliang Mansion has declared occupation, even if it captures Qingyang Mansion, it will be useless.

Otherwise, why would Ali Buge choose to withdraw to the desert instead of attacking Qingyang Mansion?

Although he was safe and sound, Liu Bingkun felt a little regretful, especially when he remembered that the secret instruct was still hiding, he was angry: "It's only hateful, but we have never found that person." If I could find that person, maybe I wouldn't have been so nervous. ”

Although the Northern Expedition was over, the Mongols still existed, and they could go south again at any time.

At that time, if that guy is like today, providing Mongolia with information on the inside of the Red Phoenix Army, it will be a hidden scourge.

Liu Bingkun knew that the threat had not been lifted, so he wanted to take advantage of this time to find out that guy, otherwise when the next crisis came, that person would only be afraid that he would cause more powerful damage.

"My lord, in fact, there are already objects of suspicion below. ”

Chen Ziang also looked annoyed, he boasted of being witty, but he was fooled by the other party several times, which was also uncomfortable.

Liu Bingkun was a little curious and asked, "Oh?

"Antu!" Chen Ziang pointed out directly: "You also know that if you want to do these things under our noses, you must be very familiar with us, and you also have a considerable reputation in the local area." And here, only Antu has this strength!"

Liu Bingkun also replied: "Antu? It's a pity that we don't have any evidence, and if we want to arrest him, I'm afraid it's impossible." ”

"That's right, that guy has some reputation in the local area, and he has done a lot to kill Jin Wuji, and if we arrest him just because of suspicion, it will be a loss to our reputation. It's just hateful, can we really just watch each other escape?"

Chen Ziang was angry with himself, why did he know that the other party might be a ghost, but he was never able to catch the other party?

This frustration is really uncomfortable.

Liu Bingkun comforted: "No matter what, we stabilized Qingyang Mansion and let the other party's conspiracy not succeed, isn't it very good? As for that guy, I don't believe that the other party can always hide his means." I'm sure we just need to stare at each other with one finger and he'll show his feet!"

"Perhaps, that's the only way to do it. ”

Although Chen Ziang was unwilling to accept it, it seemed that he could only do so now.

At this moment, the soldiers who were guarding outside the gate summoned them, saying that someone from Chang'an had come and was looking for them.

Liu Bingkun was puzzled in his heart, and looked sideways at Chen Ziang, with exploration in his eyes: "At this time, what is the purpose of coming from Chang'an?"

Although the two were puzzled, they had no choice but to go out together and welcome the man in.

The man stepped into the palace, bowed to the two of them, took out an envelope from his arms, and said, "Two, this is the letterhead that Premier Xiao entrusted me to send, and I ask you to accept it." ”

"Premier Xiao?"

Liu Bingkun stood up and put the letterhead away.

Seeing that the other party's clothes were wet and his face was red, Liu Bingkun knew that the other party had come all the way, and he had endured a lot, so he immediately waved his hand, motioned to the maid next to him to make a pot of tea, and after inviting the man to sit down, he asked warmly: "The envoy came here after trekking through mountains and rivers, and he must have experienced the wind and frost, why don't you drink a cup of warm tea here now, and tell us about the matter in Chang'an?"

"Chang'an, do you want to go back?"

The messenger was not polite, directly picked a chair and sat down, took a sip of the brewed tea, and immediately felt comfortable.

"This, isn't it because I've been stationed in Biansai for a long time, far away from Chang'an, so I want to ask what the situation is?" Liu Bingkun's face stiffened, and he quickly denied it.

Although there was a lot of trouble, he also worked here for a while, but he didn't want to lose this position.

The messenger smiled and said, "It's normal for people to be kind, and you don't have to. And when the railroad is completed, if you want to go back, knowing that you can get there in one day, where do you need to be like me, and you need to travel for ten days or so on the road?"

Thinking that he had come all the way, he also had a little haggard on his face, and now it was the cold winter, although the heavy snow had already passed, but the weather was freezing, and everyone wanted to stay in the greenhouse to rest, instead of trekking through mountains and rivers in the wilderness.

"Oh, so the third phase of the railway is already on the agenda?" Liu Bingkun was rejoicing.

In the past, soldiers had to stay on the front line for many years to ensure the safety of the border fortress, and it was extremely difficult to get home, but now with this railway, the situation is much better!

The envoy smiled and said: "That's right! And if it weren't for this railway, how would we be able to concentrate materials from all over the country and supply the front line? If we talk about the first merit of the victory of the Northern Expedition this time, we should take the railway as the head! Therefore, after the end of the Northern Expedition, the lord ordered Yang Chenglong and others to explore and prepare to take Chang'an as the center and connect all the cities under his rule by rail. When the time comes, the Mongols will attack again, and we won't need to be passive and defensive like before!"

Although he looked haggard, when he said this, he was full of energy, proud that he was the Red Phoenix Army.

Speaking of this, the messenger also felt a little embarrassed, feeling that he had been delayed here for too long.

He straightened up and said to the two, "I almost forgot, I have other things, so I'll take my leave first." ”

"So fast?" Liu Bingkun was a little reluctant, and tried his best to keep it: "Why don't you stay with me for a few more days, eat some hot food and take a hot bath, and let yourself rest on the road?"

The messenger shook his head, patted his satchel, and said, "No! You must know that apart from you, Premier Xiao also asked me to convey the news to other people, and if I eat it, I will inevitably be scolded!"

Liu Bingkun noticed that the messenger was carrying a satchel, which was stuffed with envelopes, which should be sent to other guards.

"Alright, have a nice trip!"

Now that he knew that the other party had a heavy responsibility, Liu Bingkun could not continue to keep him, so he could only ask people to prepare some thick clothes and give the other party a lot of dry food so that he could satisfy his hunger on the road.

After the man left, the two of them sat down again.

"It's also a loss to these people, otherwise how would we be able to know about things in various places?" Chen Ziang sighed.

When dealing with riots in various places, he was always constrained by the speed of information transmission, and every time he wanted to make a move after obtaining information, he was a step slower and let the other party slip away.

If not, how could that man have been able to lurk up to this point?

Liu Bingkun shook his head and sighed because Chen Ziang was still entangled in this matter: "Alas. Let's see what Premier Xiao has to say to us first!" Pinching the envelope, he felt that the envelope was quite thick, and it should contain a lot of contents.

Crushing the crushed clay was complete, and Liu Bingkun took out the envelope.

"Huh?"

After a glance, Liu Bingkun was stunned for a moment, but he raised his head to look at Chen Ziang.

Chen Ziang was puzzled and asked, "What is written in it?"

"It's about spies! Then Antu, they also approved, let's arrest this person and wait for trial!"

Liu Bingkun waved the letter in his hand, with joy on his face.

After all, they were still annoyed that they hadn't caught that guy before, but in a blink of an eye, they saw an order from Chang'an City to arrest the other party, and it was conceivable that Premier Xiao and they must have sufficient evidence, otherwise they would definitely not do this kind of behavior.

Chen Ziang was surprised, and hurriedly took the letter and looked at it: "Spies, how did they do it?"

It is said that it was recorded in the documents that the lord collected from the Pingliang Mansion. After all, if they wanted to contact Mongolia, they would naturally leave a large number of letters. Although they destroyed it, the Mongols kept it intact, otherwise how would we be able to find this evidence?" Liu Bingkun replied.

Now that there is such evidence, there is a valid reason for arresting that person!

"In that case, then leave this matter to me!"

Although Chen Ziang breathed a sigh of relief, he felt a little lost in his heart.

It was not that he had solved this matter by himself, but that he was able to open the situation by relying on the power of the lord, which still made him feel a little unhappy.

However, it is also a matter of good fortune to be able to find out that person!

Raising his head, he looked at the scorching sun hanging in the air, the heat energy emanating from this scorching sun had driven away the cold, and the heavy snow that had covered the sky and the earth before melted away, turning into trickles of water, flowing down the mountain towards the bottom of the mountain, and began to moisten the farmland at the foot of the mountain.

Winter has arrived, will spring be far away?
