Traveling through the farmhouse: there is room for the group pet Fubao

Chapter 300 Even Split

Seeing that His Royal Highness had doubts, Leng Lian panicked and recited the steps one by one for everyone.

Chu Tian felt that it was roughly the same, so she suddenly wanted to see if there were many kinds of iron ore, and if Xichu's was worse than Daling's.

A worrying person, Xiao Chutian slightly raised her head and looked at the imperial grandmother.

Yep, this little look in the eyes of the empress means 'I want to go to the iron mine. '

"Grandmother, I want to go and see."

"I don't worry if you go by yourself, let Shangguan Hao go with you. After all, he also understands this matter."

Seeing that the little granddaughter is a little more reliable now, but it is only good to be accompanied by someone she can trust, and this way she can have a chance to get along again, right?The empress looked at her granddaughter with deep meaning.

The elders who messed up the mandarin ducks seemed to be in a pitiful mood.

Chu Tian nodded, just follow, anyway, she didn't know how many times, she knew very well in her heart, and she had already expressed her rejection to Shangguan Hao several times, if he didn't know how to adapt like a dead person, he would torture him to death deserve it.

The iron mines in Western Chu are far away from Pengcheng, the capital. Chu Tian and the others chose to ride horses to return to Kyoto before the Chinese New Year without delaying time on the road, and they ran for six days.

With just one glance, Chu Tian knew the problem.

To put it bluntly, the mine in Xichu is a labor camp for petty criminals. Those who have been sentenced for a few years come here to spend enough time and then they are released. How can they work hard?

Chu Tian had to use the raw iron for minemaking twice in Daling, and the generals led the soldiers from smelting to manufacturing, which was naturally much faster.

The iron mine soldiers in Xichu are only responsible for guarding and managing.

"Shangguan, do you see any problems?"

"Two words, sabotage."

"Well, salt and iron have always been in the hands of the imperial court. Such an important business minister, Leng Lian, can't see these people sabotaging their work. Why not manage them?"

"Is there a problem with Leng Lian?"

"Who can tell."

Both of them found the problem, thought of the same place, and kept silent.

Why don't I go on, because I am afraid that the walls have ears. After all, this matter cannot be done by one person, and there must be layers of personnel to cooperate.

If it was Leng Lian's problem, then the intention of Leng Qian's knife blocking for Chu Tian was very suspicious.

Chu Tian was covered in cold sweat, but she kept Leng Lian's only daughter Leng Qian by her side all the time. Leng Qian knew many of her secrets. She had a good eye and rarely misjudged anyone. How could she miss Leng Qian? ?
"Your Highness, Tian'er..."

Not knowing what Chu Tian was thinking about, Shangguan Hao called out several times.

"Oh, it's okay, I'm a little dizzy."

"Go in and have a rest."

No, Chu Tian shook her head, motioning for Aoki to call the mine boss who was waiting not far away.

"See Your Highness for the little ones."

"Look at these people working slowly, and find a way to make them really work hard."

"Returning to Your Highness, these problems are small enough to understand, and I have tried various methods, but with little success, please Your Highness to point out a good way."

"This palace has decided that starting from now on, three quotas will be set for commutation of sentence each month. The recipients can commute their sentence for one year. The way to obtain it is to be voted by representatives and guards at the end of each month, and the top three with the most votes will be selected."

"Your Highness is brilliant! The little one will implement it immediately."

The ironworks official was in a cold sweat from worry, but after hearing what Chu Tian said, it became normal. He thought to himself, His Highness is extremely beautiful and intelligent, so what?She is not omnipotent, and it is impossible to know the tricks in it by going around, but this commutation is really wonderful.

Without stopping at the mine, the group went back to the nearest small town to settle down.

"Your Highness, are you pretending to have discovered the problem, so as not to startle the snake?"

"Pretending? This is a real problem."

"Okay, you have discovered the problem that is floating on the surface, so how do you plan to fill the deeper hole behind it?"

"I thought, as it was supposed, we might not be safe."

"If there is a problem with Leng Lian, then it will be His Majesty who will be in danger. Leng Qian has been in the palace all along, and we rushed back overnight."

"No, maybe Leng Qian approached me for a purpose, but I think she was mostly forced. She probably didn't tell Leng Lian what she found on me."

It's not because she believed in Leng Qian, but because of the facts she saw. If she had been betrayed earlier, the situation would not be what it is now.

Chu Tian went through the cause and effect of the incident in her mind, and found that she had to go back to investigate, but felt that everything was a pit, and she would never trust anyone easily again.

"Don't think too much, take a good rest, you have to go back tomorrow."

"Ah."

In the small inn in the town, the imperial guards and personal maids watched closely, and Shangguan Hao was not at ease. He stayed up all night and became a temporary guard at the door, but nothing happened all night, and no one came to attack him.

I couldn't stay in the small town too much, so I rushed back to Kyoto early the next morning. It was expected that the road would not be peaceful if there was no accident in the small town, but I was not stopped on the road.

What the hell is going on?

Back in the palace, Chu Tian realized that the development of the matter exceeded expectations.

The group of them just left the city to go to the mine, and then Leng Lian sent a letter into the Fanghua Palace to Leng Qian, who had been with Chu Tian for a long time, asking her to poison the empress in the scented tea.

Leng Qian refused, and she also guessed that this time her father and that aunt were going to do something to the Empress and His Royal Highness. To keep His Royal Highness safe, she consciously exposed her family in front of the Empress.

It turned out that it was Leng Qian's task to deliberately get close to Chu Tian, ​​win her trust, and obtain all useful information from the palace.

The aunt of the Leng family is Zhou Qi's woman, to be precise, Zhou Qi's spy.Leng Lian was rescued by her once outside, so he took him into the mansion, and then he was slowly bought and sold. Now that Xichu is going to deal with Zhou Qi, the aunt in Leng's mansion can't sit still, and that woman is timid. Fat, I want to use two prongs, poison the empress here, and send people to intercept and kill Chu Tian there.

When Aunt Leng passed a note into the palace to let Leng Qian do it, she never thought that Leng Qian would directly expose her father regardless of her own father.

The Empress asked Leng Qian why?
Leng Qian replied, His Royal Highness Tian'er treats me sincerely, but my aunt is not my aunt, and my father is not like my father, I know what is good or bad.

This is also why Leng Qian is unwilling to go back to the house to face her family, and has been living with Chu Tian in the Fanghua Palace, preferring to serve Jinhuacha.

With Leng Qian's episode, the journey back and forth to the Chu Tian Iron Mine went so smoothly.

"Grandmother, where is Qian'er? I want to see her."

"Dead, this is her letter."

"How did she die?"

"She has reported on her own father. The fate of the Leng family has been decided. She feels ashamed to face her family, let alone face you, and take poison."

"Where did she get the poison?"

"Tian'er, to be able to lure the person next to you, do you think it will be difficult for her to prepare the poison to die for herself?"
