Distressed wife

Chapter 450 The Prince's Entanglement (1)
Half an hour later, the refugee camp returned to calm, but many people died.

Mu Qingyuan's face was condensed, and he was standing in the porridge shed, and ordered someone to investigate. Mu Ziyan stepped forward, carefully inspecting the refugees who were poisoned to death, and a faint light flashed in his eyes.

"Arsenic." Mu Ziyan said in a low voice.

"The daily rice porridge in this porridge shed has been strictly inspected, how could there be arsenic?" Mu Qingyuan narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a deep voice.

Mu Ziyan raised her eyes and looked around, then turned her eyes to look at Qi Xuan, "Can you let the doctor go up there and have a look?"

"Okay." Qi Xuan nodded in response, and then ordered someone to lead the doctor up to the roof of the shed. After a while, the doctor came down, and the doctor whispered, "Reporting to Lord Hou, someone painted the dry grass on the roof of the shed. adulterated with arsenic."

Mu Ziyan looked up, and then said, "When porridge is cooked every day, the heat will rise, and the arsenic powder in the hay will fall, and it just so happens that it falls into the porridge."

"Hmph." Mu Qingyuan snorted coldly, "He actually came up with such a clever way to create chaos."

"Master Hou, there are already a lot of people coming and going here, so there is no way to find out." Mu Ziyan said in a low voice.

"Send more people." Mu Qingyuan looked coldly at the porridge shed in front of him, then turned and left.

After returning to the government office, Mu Ziyan continued, "Daddy, these refugees are not ordinary refugees."

"En." Mu Qingyuan nodded in response, "Otherwise, he wouldn't rush to the street to disturb the people."

"Father, this is just the beginning. These refugees will be under centralized surveillance, so that they cannot take advantage of this to cause another riot." Mu Ziyan was silent for a moment, before reminding.

"It's just that these refugees must not be dealt with now. Since there is no evidence, this is the only way to go." Mu Qingyuan turned to look at Mu Ziyan, "I will handle this matter, but you have to stay in Funan for a while ?”

"It's okay to stay for a few more days." Mu Ziyan's eyes flashed coldness, since Zhong Xuan had already arranged everything here, how could she miss a good show?

"Your mother is about to give birth." Mu Qingyuan's eyes flashed a look of helplessness, "I wasn't around when you and Xuan'er were born, and I'm afraid this little guy won't be able to watch his birth in person."

Mu Ziyan looked up at Mu Qingyuan, "Daddy, don't worry, I will bring my younger brother to see you when he is a little older."

"Okay." Mu Qingyuan finally showed a gratified smile.

Mu Ziyan was silent for a moment, then turned around and saw Qi Xuan entering, she went forward, "Cousin, I'm afraid the mountain is not safe."

"I've already sent more people." Qi Xuan said softly.

"I'm afraid it won't work either." Mu Ziyan sighed, "Those refugees are not ordinary refugees, as you can see today, they seem to be very good at robbing things."

"That's right." Qi Xuan listened to Mu Ziyan's words, and recalled the situation at that time, "Cousin, it seems that these people are bandits."

"They disguised themselves as refugees and entered Funan, but they showed a flaw, that is, they claimed that they came from Fubei. Now that there is no major incident in Fubei, how could they escape? Unless..." Mu Ziyan felt There must be something overlooked in it, and now that I think about it carefully, the reason probably lies in this place.

"Unless what?" Mu Qingyuan looked at Mu Ziyan and asked.

"Unless something really happened in Fubei, and it's still a good thing." Mu Ziyan looked up at Mu Qingyuan, "Daddy, what happened in Fubei recently that is worth celebrating?"

"By the way, three months ago, the Fubei government encircled and suppressed the local copycat bandits." Mu Qingyuan suddenly realized, "You mean the refugees who are fleeing into Funan now are the bandits that Fubei suppressed?"

"The local government confirmed that all the bandits have been wiped out?" Mu Ziyan asked doubtfully.

"Fubei is not under my jurisdiction, but a newly sent official took over. Within two months after taking office, he wiped out the rampant bandits who had been entrenched in Fubei for 30 years. He was rewarded by the emperor. Remember, he is the son of Minister of the Ministry of War, and he is a bit weird." Mu Qingyuan said coldly, "His name is Lu Li."

"Lu Li?" Mu Ziyan pondered for a while, then turned around slowly, pacing back and forth in the lobby.

She remembered that in her previous life, there was indeed such a person. Lu Li's scheming was no less than that of Leng Hanfeng, but the two seemed to be at odds with each other. But later, Leng Hanfeng designed to frame Lu Li, and Lu Li hanged himself to death.

When is it?It seems to be related to the political achievements at that time, yes, it is this group of bandits, if these refugees are bandits who escaped from Fubei, and the purpose of these is the soil, and all this is done by Zhong Xuan, Leng Fenghan must be involved Among them, this scheme can be described as a series of schemes. It not only created chaos for Funan, but also drove father out of Funan, and then the emperor would send his confidants to come. Now, it is a blow to the Duke's Mansion and Muhou Moreover, if the matter is investigated in detail and these refugees are found to be bandits fleeing from Fubei, then Lu Li's report of encircling the bandits is deceiving the emperor. Lu Li is paranoid, how can he tolerate it? In this matter, if Leng Hanfeng secretly tricked and took the opportunity to kill Lu Li, creating the illusion that he committed suicide in fear of crime, wouldn't Leng Hanfeng have eliminated a strong opponent?

If this plan really comes true?The most proud of them are Zhong Xuan and Leng Hanfeng.

How could she let their treachery succeed?

"Father, these bandits can't stay." Mu Ziyan raised her eyes to look at Mu Qingyuan, "There is deceit in it. During the turmoil just now, someone might have sneaked into the mountain quietly. If they use it to occupy the mountain as king , then it will be even more difficult to get rid of it when the time comes, and if the emperor knows about it, daddy will not be able to escape the blame."

Upon hearing this, Qi Xuan continued, "What did my cousin think of?"

"Why did the bandits from Fubei come to Funan? How did they escape? Leaving aside Lu Li's temperament, even if he had the guts, he would not do such a thing like bullying the king and destroying the clan. Therefore, He must have been framed." Mu Ziyan looked at Qi Xuan and said.

"If this is the case, if these bandits stay, not only Funan, but also Funan will be swallowed up by people?" Qi Xuan naturally thought of the deep part, thinking that the conspiracy behind this is gradually Control the entire Great Yan Kingdom, and slowly infiltrate his own people into various places.

"My cousin's guess is right." Mu Ziyan said in a low voice, "If this matter is really exposed, father and Lu Li must be inseparable, and even cousin is also guilty of dereliction of duty. The Duke's Mansion and Muhou Mansion will naturally Being questioned, the emperor's purpose is to weaken the military power of the Duke's Mansion, so he will definitely use this matter to make a big fuss, forcing Grandpa to send his military power, and Dad will also be dismissed from office."
