Chapter 167 Borrowing Duan Mansion (2)

Looking at Bo Beibei, Lu Hui's eyes flashed with admiration, and he continued: "That's why they found your brother and asked your brother to take them out to the far sea."

"What do you mean?"

"Their grain grains in Beihe have not been harvested in the past few years, but God has treated them well. A few years ago, several gold and silver mines were discovered and opened. I heard that some were mined last year, but they have money but no food. Even if they have money, they will come to our side to buy food, but what Beihe has done these years has made the two countries into endless enemies. The emperor has promulgated two years ago The imperial order closed the city gate and cut off all contact with Beihe."

The other neighboring countries of Beihe Kingdom are also too busy to take care of themselves, and there is no surplus grain to sell to them, otherwise they would not have to take such a big risk to smuggle grain into Qiyao Kingdom.

Praying that the country of Yao will be prosperous and the people will be strong, and the people will live and work in peace and contentment. This is exactly what makes Beihe country jealous.

"So this time they spent a lot of money to collude with Morku, which is adjacent to our southwest border, and plan to buy food for [-] cents, and then transport it to Morku by water, and then detour by land from Morku. A large circle will be shipped to Beihe." Lu Hui continued.

The country of Morku also has a small land and a lot of people, so it doesn't have enough food. Otherwise, Beihe could directly buy grain from the country of Morku and transport it to Beihe.

Hearing this, Bai Dinghai and Bai Dinglang broke into a layer of cold sweat behind their backs. They didn't expect Manchuan to be involved in such a big case.

Bai Beibei thought for a while and said, "Uncle Lu, I heard from my brother that those Beihe people asked him about drying fish. I wonder if they have other conspiracy?"

If it was smuggled food, why did they ask how to dry the dried fish?This is so weird.

Hearing this, Lu Hui asked solemnly: "Miss Beibei, when did this happen?"

They had already received news that Beihe spies had sneaked into Qiyao country, but they didn't know what they were going to do when they came to Qiyao country. Later, Qiao Xiong asked them to inquire about some things, and they discovered that Beihe spies were actually in their under the nose.

"Just a few days ago," Bo Beibei said, "Uncle Lu, do you know why they ask these questions?"

"Miss Beibei, I'll let my master report this matter to General Luo." Lu Hui had already guessed a little bit about the ambitions of the Beihe people, but this matter can't be guessed out of thin air, there must be evidence.

This news is really important, and it may be related to the stability of the border for decades. Lu Hui quickly told Duan Xin about it, and Duan Xin also reported it to Qiao Xiong as quickly as possible.

Luo Yiqing was the county government office that arrived that afternoon. After receiving the news, Bai Beibei and the others went to wait at the gate of the county government office.

Because this case was a secret trial, Bai Beibei and others could not sit in on it, and they couldn't even see Bai Manchuan.

In the morning, Father Yuzhu heard from Duan Xin that General Luo would arrive in the afternoon, and the father and son also went to guard the gate of the county government office early after lunch.

The waiting time was particularly torturous. Finally, in the evening, the entire group stretched their necks and no one came out from the county government. Bai Dinglang couldn't bear it and asked: "Brother, how did you say that the boat is so full?" Haven’t released it yet? Couldn’t it be that General Luo who convicted the whole ship?”

"Don't talk nonsense!" Bai Dinghai scolded with a sullen face: "Master Duan said that General Luo knew everything, Man Chuan was innocent, how could General Luo convict Man Chuan?!"

"Why haven't you come out if you haven't been convicted?" Bai Dinglang was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.

Bai Dinghai was silent because he couldn't answer. In fact, he was also very disturbed.

"Second Uncle, didn't Master Duan say that there won't be any results so soon, we can't be in a hurry." Bai Beibei was also very anxious, but she still spoke to comfort Bai Dinglang.

"Beibei, did Master Duan really say that?" Yuzhu's father, who had waited until he heard Bai Beibei's words, immediately regained his composure. He thought it was hopeless to save his son.

"Uncle, that's what Master Duan said. It's getting dark now, you should go back and rest first." Bai Beibei hated Bai Daluo very much, but Yuzhu's father didn't talk much, but he had no bad intentions after all. Bo Beibei treated him fairly well.

As soon as Bai Beibei finished speaking, Duan Yixu walked towards them.

Duan Yixu walked up to Bo Beibei and said, "Girl Beibei, I'm afraid we won't get a result today. It's getting late, so let's go back first."

Duan Yixu stared straight at Bo Beibei with big piercing eyes, not as deep as before, but clear and translucent.

Bo Beibei subconsciously avoided his gaze, turned to Bai Dinghai and Bai Dinglang and said, "Uncle, Second Uncle, let's go back with Young Master Duan first."

Seeing the young master of the Duan family coming to pick them up in person, the two brothers were flattered. Knowing that the boat would not be full today, they were embarrassed to keep Duan Yixu waiting too long, so they followed Duan Yixu back immediately.

When Yuzhu's father and son saw that Bai Dinghai and the others had left, they also left the county government.

When I returned to Duan's mansion, it was just in time for dinner, because there was a girl named Bai Beibei, so Duan Xin and Duan Yixu did not sit with the three of them.

A maid arranged a room for Bo Beibei and the others in a small courtyard after dinner. This courtyard is very elegant, and half of the courtyard is planted with bamboo. If it is daytime, you can definitely see the greenery all over the courtyard.

Bo Beibei didn't feel sleepy after washing up. Seeing that the courtyard corridor was full of lanterns, she walked along the corridor to the bamboo forest.

Bo Beibei was walking, and suddenly heard the sound of sharp blades breaking the wind and the sound of footsteps moving. He listened carefully and found that the sound

It came from the front, and Bo Beibei looked for the sound curiously.

After walking only ten meters, Bo Beibei saw a small hexagonal door after turning a corner in the corridor.

Is this partial courtyard still connected with other courtyards?Bo Beibei paused, not knowing whether to continue walking.

Bo Beibei hesitated for a moment, but finally couldn't resist his curiosity and walked towards the hexagonal gate.

As soon as he passed through the hexagonal gate, Bo Beibei saw a figure dancing with a sword in the next yard.

It turned out that someone was practicing!

It was the first time that Bo Beibei saw someone dancing a sword with her own eyes, so she couldn't help but take a second look, but this night, and the figure was too fast, she didn't recognize the shadow.

Bo Beibei didn't want to disturb that person, and after a few glances, she was about to turn around and leave, but just as she turned around, she heard Duan Yixu's voice behind her: "Miss Beibei!"

Bo Beibei frowned slightly, it was him!
"Miss Beibei hasn't slept yet?" Duan Yixu walked towards Bai Beibei.

"Master Duan, I'm really sorry. I didn't know you were practicing. Go ahead and I won't bother you."

Bai Beibei spoke in a hurry, even a fool could tell that she didn't want to talk to Duan Yixu anymore.
