After discussing military matters, Xiao Chenghan asked Xiao Yilin to stay, and asked someone to summon the Dali Temple Minister Chu Minghai into the palace.

After Chu Minghai gave a greeting, Xiao Chenghan asked, "Chu Aiqing, what you asked you to investigate before is a good idea?"

Chu Minghai replied: "Your Majesty, I ordered people to check all the clinics and pharmacies in the capital. The people who bought the two kinds of medicinal materials were not the same person, but they were bought by different people. But it still remains to be done if these people are in the same group.

Verify.”

Xiao Chenghan nodded and said, "Then continue investigating. King Jing is about to lead his troops to the battle. The investigation of the mastermind behind the scenes will be left to you Dali Temple. No matter who dares to hinder your investigation, don't tolerate it."

Chu Minghai bowed and said, "Yes, I will step up my investigation and find out the mastermind behind it as soon as possible."

Xiao Yilin did not stay in the palace any longer. After leaving the palace, he went home and asked his family to pack his clothes for him and prepared to go to war at any time.

Feng Zhi brought people to investigate the horse dealer Li Dongbao in the suburbs of Beijing and brought back a shocking news. The horse farm in the suburbs of Beijing was held in partnership with the other person. According to the partner, Li Dongbao had actually been demoted to the point of

Xiao Yimao, a commoner, has something to do with him.

Moreover, Li Dongbao is no longer in the capital and has long disappeared from where he is.

Feng Zhi got some news from that partner and did not dare to delay and came back to report, "Prince, it is said that Li Dongbao rarely stays in the capital. He is always selling horses in other places. The horse farm in the suburbs of Beijing is the same most of the time.

The partner is in charge.

It is said that Li Dongbao also had a horse trading business with Beiyan. However, the horses he bought were not brought back to the capital. He said they were sold halfway through, and it was unknown who they sold to. The partner said that he had not yet taken them back to the capital.

Anyway, he didn't care who he had the money to sell it to."

The more Xiao Yilin heard this, his brows became tighter and tighter, "Who would buy a large number of horses except the court? This is obviously abnormal. But we have no time to take care of this matter, we are about to go to war. The investigation can only be left to Dali.

It's a temple."

Feng Zhi didn't know what Beiyan was about to invade. At this time, he heard that they were about to go to war and asked in surprise: "Who is not honest and wants to be beaten?"

Xiao Yilin said: "Bei Yan forgot the pain before, and this time he came to invade again, and he was almost at the border. We have to set off as soon as possible. Let's take the surprise troops first, and the infantry battalion behind him will follow."

Feng Zhi widened his eyes when he heard this, "Bei Yan is invading again? Why don't they remember? Last time they almost destroyed their royal court, but this time they can just destroy them."

Xiao Yilin gave Feng Zhi a blank look, "Is that simple thing? Don't forget, there is another Yiguo next to us, which is not much better than Beiyan. If we use our whole country to attack Beiyan, Yiguo

It is very likely that they will take advantage of the situation. They have done such a thing before.

This year, not only our Great Jin Dynasty was affected, but also Beiyan and Yiguo were seriously affected. So Beiyan was using the idea of ​​robbery. How could the Yiguo not do the same? So we must take checks and balances to make the Yiguo afraid.

The threat from Northern Yan is not afraid to use force against our Great Jin."

Feng Zhi sucked his teeth after hearing this, "Oh, Yiguo is really not very good, and the emperor of Yiguo is also used to taking advantage of the situation to rob. We really have to be careful."

Xiao Yilin felt that the news brought back by Feng Zhi was very important, so he immediately entered the palace.

Seeing that Xiao Chenghan had just left for a while, he must have something to do when he saw that his fourth son had just left, "What's so anxious?"

Xiao Yilin replied: "Father, Feng Zhi went to check the horse dealer Li Dongbao in the suburbs of Beijing."

Then Xiao Yilin told the found news.

Xiao Chenghan's face was extremely cold when he heard this, "Li Dongbao sold horses for so many years, and he sold his horses to whom he can't find out for a while, but he has something to do with his second brother, and Zheng's privately made it.

Weapons, those horses are likely to be in the second hand.”

Xiao Yilin was shocked when he heard this, "Father, are you saying that the second brother is unwilling to accept it and wants to do something ruthless?"

Xiao Chenghan snorted, "What's impossible? He was demoted to a commoner by me, so you're willing to treat him as a plea? Maybe he really wants to take risks and do something traitorous. You don't have to worry about this matter, I'll send someone

Go check your second brother's movements, and you can rest assured to go to the battle. It's extremely dangerous to go there, you have to prepare everything."

Xiao Yilin can't care about anything else now. He now wants to dispatch troops, allocate food and grass, and prepare for the expedition.

Many people knew that the Northern Yan army was about to attack the Jin Dynasty, so a tense atmosphere was invisible in the capital.

After Xu Liangsheng returned home, he came to the yard where his wife lived, and Xu Ruyin was also there at this time.

When Xu Ruyin saw her father come back and salute, she said, "Father, my daughter heard that Anle went to treat patients with plague? She also went to the most serious place. Wouldn't that be very dangerous?"

Xu Liangsheng glanced at his daughter and said, "That was Anle Hou who volunteered, and then the emperor issued an order to send Anle Hou to go. Since they asked for it, they were sure. It is said that a cure has been found now, and those patients should

Nothing is wrong.

His Highness Jing personally transported a batch of supplies, and it should be fine soon."

Mrs. Xu said: "Master, it is said that the capital is full of rumors that Prince Jing is as good as Long Yang and has an affair with Marquis Anle. Do you think this is possible? Otherwise, why has Prince Jing not married the princess until now? There are even people around you.

No women?"

Xu Liangsheng glared at his wife and said, "What are you talking about nonsense? How could Your Highness Jing have that kind of quirk? Don't follow the crowd and make random arrangements. What if it is passed on to the emperor's ears and makes thunder angry? Let's ignore what others say.

, but you have to take care of your mouth."

Mrs. Xu said, "Isn't this just listening to others' words? We didn't say anything. But we didn't see His Highness Jing and An Lehou come out to clarify. They just let others talk nonsense?"

Xu Liangsheng gave his wife a blank look, "There is no place to care about these things now. Now the Northern Yan army is about to be over, and the northern territory is in danger. The emperor has decided to lead the troops to fight. Now the King Jing is definitely not in the mansion.

And Anlehou is not in the capital. How could they have the opportunity to clarify? Besides, His Highness Jing and Anlehou are both gentlemen of Duanfang and will not care about other people's comments. I guess they don't bother to clarify."

Xu Ruyin's nervousness in her heart as she listened to her father's words dissipated a lot. She didn't want any ambiguous relationship between Anlehou and His Highness Jing.

She also felt that the person she liked would not be so unbearable. She felt that Anlehou was an open, upright and kind person. Otherwise, she would not have saved her.

She hates those who are gossiping, and her savior is like her father talking about a gentleman in the United States.
