Rebirth farming and raising buns

Chapter 393 Request
The sky gradually brightened, and Yi Yuanjing finally found some clues.

The striker's sword technique really has a background, and the footsteps are all in different positions. Among these messy footsteps, Yi Yuanjing found a pair of footprints that were a circle smaller than the other footprints, and the footprints went deeper all the way. I am afraid that it is Lin Shuang's previous footprints, but it is covered by other footprints, so I can only see a general direction.

After groping along the direction a little bit, Yi Yuanjing came to a small stream all the way.

And just behind a big rock in front of the creek, Yi Yuanjing found a piece of mud with footprints of this size on it, and a crooked body shape, that is to say, Lin Shuang may be He ran over from there and was caught here.

The reason why it is said to be taken away is because the mark here is obvious, but there is no drop of blood, and there is no trace of struggle. It should be that she was hiding here, but was discovered by someone, and finally she was knocked out and taken away.

But these people were not sent by the Ninth Princess. Lin Shuang should have broken away from the person who was sent by the Ninth Princess to kill her before.

Who will take Lin Shuang away?

Yi Yuanjing checked these two places back and forth carefully, and finally found some different marks in front of the creek.

This is the hoof print of a horseshoe, but this hoof print is not an ordinary horseshoe.

Judging from the shape and size of the horse's hoof, if you guessed correctly, it should be a kind of snow horse once paid tribute by the Yeliao Kingdom. This kind of horse Yi Yuanjing often saw it on the battlefield, so he was naturally very familiar with it.

This kind of horse has a relatively tall physique, a well-proportioned and compact overall structure, a very beautiful head, small and flexible, big and bright eyes, a high head and neck, strong limbs, and a beautiful coat color. It looks very fat and strong. When its neck is held high, more handsome.

Because of its beautiful appearance and robustness, it is very popular, but this kind of horse is more suitable for the climate of Yeliao country. It will cost a lot of money to raise this kind of horse, and ordinary dignitaries can't afford it.

When Yeliao State and Song State had a good relationship, they paid tribute to ten horses, but only six horses were left because of improper breeding.

Three of them were bred in the palace, and the other three were given to the three princes respectively. The reason why they were only given to the three princes was that the three princes were good horses, and the other princes were too lazy to raise them. I chose something else.

Yi Yuanjing only knew that there were three princes who owned this kind of horse, but he didn't know which three princes. If he could know, the scope could be narrowed down a lot.

After much deliberation, Yi Yuanjing decided to go directly to the Ninth Prince's Mansion to meet the Ninth Prince Zhao Jin. After all, only he can know this matter best, and it involves other princes, and he is the only one who cares about Lin Shuang's life and death and can help him.

Zhao Jin didn't enter the palace today, and was only waiting for news in the mansion, but his people didn't wait, but they heard Yi Yuan begging to see him.

Speaking of which, the newly-appointed general of the guards, Yi Yuanjing, can be regarded as the person he single-handedly promoted. He was the one who thought he was good when he was supervising the army in the barracks. Later, he found that he was calm when he changed, so He was promoted just now, and he did not misunderstand, Yi Yuanjing has done extraordinary things all the way.

Taking the previous few battles as an example, the formation of troops was very detailed. If there were no spies in the battalion that caused his injury, he would not have been allowed to go to the front with Duke Zheng.

After Yi Yuanjing's injury improved, the front line immediately turned the situation around, and even found out the spies, and wiped them out all the way.

Therefore, Zhao Jin has a good impression of Yi Yuanjing. He also had some complaints about the arrangement of the emperor's brother before. Emperor Zhao Ying listened to Zhao Jin's words. If ordinary people persuaded him, it might not be so effective.

It's just that he has heard that the emperor has released Yi Yuanjing, so why didn't he go back to the front line, but came to see him instead.

But doubts are doubts, Zhao Jin still asked someone to take Yi Yuanjing into the study, not the living room.

"The last general, Yi Yuanjing, pay homage to the Ninth Prince." After entering the study, Yi Yuanjing kowtowed to Zhao Jin.

"General Yi doesn't need to be too polite, but I just don't know how General Yi came to this king's mansion?" Zhao Jin was not too polite. After all, Yi Yuanjing was only a fourth grade, no matter how old he was, he appreciated it, but he didn't have to hide anything. , directly asked his own doubts.

On the contrary, it was Yi Yuanjing who paused for a moment when he heard Zhao Jin's straightforward question: "Ninth Prince, there is something I would like to ask the prince for help at the end."

"Oh? What's the matter? General Yi, get up and talk!" Zhao Jin said on his lips, but he was thinking in his heart, what could Yi Yuanjing ask for help.

"Then the general will not go around in circles with the lord, and the general will dare to ask directly." Yi Yuanjing is willing to go all out, this matter cannot be delayed, who knows who Lin Shuang will fall into the hands of, maybe there will be changes if it is delayed for a while, He directly asked Zhao Jin, "Does your lord know who the Holy Majesty gave to the Tianxue horse that Yeliao Kingdom paid tribute to?"

It turned out to be asking Tianxuema, is there something wrong with Tianxuema?
At this time, Zhao Jin only thought that the Tianxue horse was a tribute from the Yeliao Kingdom, so there might be something wrong, so he didn't hesitate, and replied directly: "The horses are not acclimatized when they come here, and it is really hard to raise them." , So after returning from the tribute, apart from keeping a few in the emperor's royal horse garden, the rest only rewarded three princes who like horses, one of which is here with this king, and two more, one in the second emperor's brother's house. There, there is another horse with Brother Eight Emperor, what? Is there any problem with this horse?"

Unexpectedly, one of the three horses is here with Zhao Jin, so at least this place can be ruled out, and there are only two places left, which can save some time.

It's just that, with the second prince and the eighth prince, I don't know which prince it will be with.It's okay if it's with the Eighth Prince, but it's hard to say if it's with the Second Prince.

Yi Yuanjing had heard that the Eighth Prince was a warm-hearted person. If he was with the Eighth Prince, he probably encountered Lin Shuang and was hunted down, so he was saved.But this second prince, Yi Yuanjing heard that he is a moody person.

Seeing that after he finished speaking, Yi Yuanjing looked thoughtful, and Zhao Jin asked: "General Yi? If there is any problem, why don't you go to the stable with me to check it out for yourself? But the people of Ye Liao Kingdom want to take advantage of these The horse is not good for us? If so, this king should go to the palace as soon as possible to report to the emperor."

At this moment, Yi Yuanjing, who was relieved, knew that the Ninth Prince Zhao Jin had misunderstood, and quickly said: "No, the prince misunderstood. It's not that there is something wrong with this horse, but..." After a pause, Yi Yuanjing once again Kneeling down: "The last general Yi Yuanjing, this time I am not talking about horses, but I want to ask the Ninth Prince to help save a person."
