Chapter 272
Kang Shiwei followed all the way, being cautious, it can be said that he lived in the open.After the two arrived in Fengcheng, they changed their attire and went to the mansion of General Meng Yi.Immediately afterwards, Meng Yi went out and went all the way to the other courtyard.This small courtyard is actually heavily guarded and full of secret sentries.Relying on his skill and boldness, Kang Jun reluctantly got in, but only accidentally saw a side face, so he had to back out.

Even such a side face was enough for Kang Jun to confirm the identity of that person.It's a pity that he couldn't hear their conversation, and naturally he didn't know what kind of power that person had in Fengcheng.

"In the past few days, you all disguised yourself and infiltrated the people of Fengcheng to search for news, and you must not reveal your whereabouts. If you have any news, come back every night and report it to me quietly."

"yes, Sir!"

After giving the order, Kang Jun started to act alone. He wanted to find Du Juan in advance, and only from that woman could he get more news.

"Since she has arrived in Fengcheng, she must be planning to heal people. It's just that she is a daughter, and it is inconvenient to show her face in public. Therefore, I guess, she may disguise herself as a man to facilitate things. You should inquire carefully after you arrive. Yes, a young doctor who is quite well-known in medicine, I think he will find her soon. After you find her, explain to her why you are here, and let someone escort her out of Fengcheng."

Thinking of what the princess said before he left, Kang Jun had a solid idea. The next day, he dressed up as a hunter with a broken leg, and started to go to the streets and alleys where ordinary people lived, chatting along the street.But there are doctors who are highly skilled in medicine but don't ask for too high a price, which ordinary people can afford.

Towards the afternoon, he finally found out that there was a young Doctor Du with outstanding medical skills on East Street, but he had moved away not long ago, and he didn't know where he went.Kang Jun knew that it was Du Juan who was worried that he would be discovered and hid on purpose. He lamented that the other party was smart but also a little melancholy. Now it was even more difficult to find someone.

Now I'm afraid I can only find clues from the few businessmen who Du Juan asked to bring the letter, he sighed, on the way to leave, happened to be in an alley, and saw an old woman struggling to hold a basket of clothes slowly. Tun walked, his face covered with sweat.

"Old man, let me help you!"

"Oh, I'm sorry to trouble you, young man!" The old woman seemed a little at a loss. Seeing that Kang Jun picked up the bamboo basket and asked her where her home was, she pointed the way tremblingly.

It was an extremely remote thatched hut, surrounded by some poor families, and the dirty and messy environment made one's heart sad.When Kang Jun sent the old woman to the door, he heard a distraught voice.

"Mom, how many times have I told you not to go outside to pick up clothes and come back to wash them! I've already got my wages."

Dressed in rough linen, the skinny young man had a distressed expression on his face. When his eyes fell on Kang Jun, he was suddenly wary and puzzled.

"who are you?"

Protecting the old woman behind him, the young man looked at him fiercely, subconsciously about to close the door.However, the moment Kang Jun saw him, his eyes lit up. He deliberately lowered his voice and uttered two words.

The expressions on the faces of the young man and the old woman changed, but Kang Jun raised a smile. As the saying goes, it is easy to find nowhere to go. The mother and son in front of me are actually the mother of Dujuan who is hiding in disguise. Female.

"You don't have to panic. I'm Kang Shiwei. Ms. Du should still remember me, right? Thanks to your letter, Ms. Du, His Highness is aware of my current dangerous situation. This time I was sent to spy on Fengcheng secretly. Moreover, the Crown Princess has ordered me to escort Miss Du and Lingtang back to Beijing safely. I have only come to Fengcheng not long ago, and I hope Miss Du can help me."

Inside the thatched hut, Kang Jun did not hide anything, revealing his identity and intention of coming.Du Juan seemed a little disappointed and relieved. Ever since she found out that Mu Yunbin was still alive, she felt like living in hell. She originally planned to move to Boss Jin's house, but was worried about causing trouble to Boss Jin.In the end, in desperation, he could only hide in the poor alley here.She was worried that her medical skills would be easily discovered, so she stopped practicing medicine altogether and went to do odd jobs in a medical clinic instead.

It's just that she is young and can only be an apprentice. She doesn't get much money every month, and she can't afford the life of mother and daughter.If it weren't for such embarrassment, how could my mother go to pick up other people's clothes to wash at a young age?

The princess was still thinking about her, which moved Du Juan a little, even if it was just for her mother, she was unwilling to stay in Fengcheng any longer.But because of His Majesty's will, she really didn't have the guts to escape.

"I don't know much, but that person should have fled to Fengcheng after committing the crime of treason. General Meng Yi treated him very politely. I'm afraid it was a chess piece laid by that person long ago. Other than that , The drought in the northwest is also a bit strange. I once heard some refugees say that they received very little money and food for the disaster. Later, the refugees in Fengcheng were all taken away. I don’t know the specific situation. By the way, There is another thing. Recently, the government seems to be recruiting strong and strong civilians to work, saying that they need to repair the city walls, and they can get money every day. Because in the past, people were directly recruited for military service, but this time they suddenly asked for money. It's weird."

For the common people, it is a good thing to get money, anyway, is it the same for whom to work for?If it wasn't for Du Juan's suspicion of Mu Yunbin, it would be nothing worth mentioning in the eyes of ordinary people.

Du Juan doesn't have much connections, and subconsciously avoids it, so he really doesn't know much.Kang Jun didn't force it, at least Du Juan reminded him and gave him a rough guess.

"In a short time, you can pack up your things and leave the city. Go to Yunlai Inn and just hand this over to the shopkeeper. They will arrange for you to leave."

Clenching the wooden sign in his hand, Du Juan nodded, feeling excited.She knew that soon there would be a war in Fengcheng, and only by leaving as soon as possible could she be safe.

After Kang Jun left without delay, he immediately started investigating the drought and recruiting civilians. He and a few secret guards personally pretended to be civilians and participated in the government's recruitment.

It was only after they arrived that they discovered that they were not building any city walls at all, but were arranged to enter a mine.It turns out that there is an iron mine with rich resources hidden under the mirror mountain not far from the city here!All the people who were recruited were strictly guarded and were responsible for mining every day.And not far from the mine, there is actually a special place for smelting weapons!
Privately manufactured weapons, hoarded food and grass, recruited soldiers and bought horses, and colluded with Meng Yi!All of this was done in secret, and there was no defense at all in the capital. At this moment, Mu Yunbin's intentions were clearly revealed!

"No, we must escape and report this matter to heaven."

"But, here is heavily guarded, how can we escape?"

In order to keep it secret, there were vigilance everywhere. The common people were already timid and fearful. There were a few bloody men who wanted to leave, but they died on the spot.Although they have force, they are no match for two fists and four legs.

"There will always be a way. I don't believe it. There is no time when they are negligent."

Thousands of miles away in the capital, the sweltering weather makes people feel restless.Because of insufficient evidence, it is true that Princess Changning cannot be convicted based on the words of a little maid.The case of murdering the princess is still pending, and the Su family in the court is like a red-eyed tiger, steadfastly protecting Princess Changning's bloodline.

However, there is no doubt that the Su family and the crown prince have turned against each other. The centipede is dead but not stiff. With the restraint of the Su family, the crown prince has been in a state of distress recently.

However, at this moment, the Prince Mu Yunshen, who was supposed to be anxious and irritable in the Eastern Palace, had a rather calm expression on his face.

"As I expected, their next step is to let Yang Guifei take action. The snipe and the clam compete for the fisherman's profit. I'm afraid Yang Guifei herself can't think of it. This is actually the mantis catching the cicada and the oriole!"

Putting away the secret letter, a coldness flashed in Mu Yunshen's eyes, but Xie Xinyue frowned and gently stroked her stomach.

"Yun Shen, don't you think it's strange? Princess Ruozhong is a chess piece left by Mu Yunbin, but she doesn't say why she helps Mu Yunbin. Just looking at her recent actions, she seems a little anxious. Liu Yu'er had a difficult labor, I'm afraid it's just that Princess Zhong doesn't just want to see Prince Zhong leave an heir before she makes a move, but she does it on purpose.

After all, it is impossible for her to know that I am pregnant in advance, and then Zhaoyang, who wants to turn your brothers and sisters against each other.The second is the Su family behind Changning, and the Yang family behind Concubine Yang. They deliberately want you to become enemies with these two families.Moreover, according to Jin Yan and Xi Que, someone has spread rumors in private, saying that you are not friendly to brothers and sisters, that you are narrow-minded and have no tolerance for others.If so, why give up all the chess pieces, once Concubine Yang Gui is exposed, no one can use them. "

They seemed to rush out all of a sudden, knowing that any further action would definitely reveal their secrets, but they still did it anyway. If the other party is really smart, they should know that such behavior is tantamount to killing the chicken and picking the egg.

"What do you mean?" Mu Yun looked up at her deeply, with a thoughtful expression on his face.

"Don't forget, Mu Yunbin has something more powerful than all of us. He knows the past life, and he can predict things that we don't even know! I suspect that it will be this month or next month. Maybe a big event will happen. This event will affect you and me, but it will be very beneficial to Mu Yunbin. He will take this opportunity to let you and me mess up first."

The more Xie Xinyue thought about it, the more certain she became. She always had a vague premonition in her heart, and she thought about it for a long time.

If this is the case, they will plan to lure the snake out of the hole, which is probably useless.

"Yue'er, your guess is not unreasonable. Now that I think about it, when the maid testified, her words were clearly flashing, and she was not a close friend of Chang Ning. When it comes to physical evidence, it shows that the black cat was used for the last time. Even if we didn't intentionally play tricks with Chang Ning secretly, they will definitely make a big deal out of it, and then charge me with a crime that cannot be tolerated!"

Mu Yunshen's expression was a bit ugly, he actually miscalculated!The other party's purpose from the beginning was not to murder the heirs of the East Palace, but to deliberately direct their minds to that. The real intention was to make him confront the Su family and the Yang family.Even if, this result is only superficial.
