Yan Yan Yugui

Chapter 322

Xiao Qian's assassination was only known to a few people because the emperor issued a password-locked order, and it did not cause any greater impact.

Lu Zhaonan was suspicious, but his opponent never took the bait, so let's put this matter aside for the time being.

There was no movement in Princess Xinyang's mansion. Feng Yichen said that Princess Xinyang didn't suspect him, so she was busy eliminating the negative impact of Qingrou's kidnapping incident.Because Qingrou blew herself up in the street and said that she was captured by thieves, some rumors inevitably arose.Xinyang's tricks are amazing, Shuntian Mansion can't order her to do anything, and the criminal department helped her arrest many people who talked about it in public, and finally suppressed the rumors, at least no one dared to talk about it in public, and Xinyang couldn't do anything about it in private.

In short, in the capital, the New Year's atmosphere is still very peaceful on the surface.

Xiao Qian raised him for more than ten days, and on the eighth day of the eighth day, he quietly took a carriage to the house next to Pan Rang's house, and finally met Lu Zhong.

Lu Zhong also considered for a long time before making up his mind to tell the truth.

After all, he had been under Zheng Peixin's command since he joined the army. It can be said that Zheng Peixin single-handedly promoted him. Zheng Peixin trusted him very much. He testified that he had betrayed Shangfeng.

But he is not only Zheng Peixin's soldier, but also Dasheng's subjects, Dasheng's soldiers. If Zheng Peixin hadn't colluded with Beidi people, he would not have made up his mind.

Xiao Qian had heard Pan Rang talk about the situation in the northern border, but Pan Rang knew far less inside information than Lu Zhong.

Lu Zhong also accompanied Zheng Peixin out of the city for a secret meeting with the First Prince of Beidi in October last year.As for the content of the secret meeting, he didn't know anything about it. He only knew that Zheng Peixin sent a secret letter after he came back, and this secret letter was sent to Jingzhou.

Xiao Qian immediately thought of the man named Yang Kui. Could it be that their secret meeting this time was to concoct the kerosene case and assassinate the emperor?

"After General Zheng came back, did he visit Princess Xinyang?"

Lu Zhong shook his head: "No."

"Thank you, General Lu, for telling me this, and I want to thank General Gao Yi on behalf of the people of Dasheng."

Lu Zhong hurriedly stood up and returned the salute: "Your Highness is the last general of Zhesha, and the last general is ashamed."

"General Lu, you go back first, you don't need to do anything, just wait for His Majesty's call in the next day."

Lu Zhong was taken aback, could it be that the emperor has become suspicious of General Zheng, so he wants to investigate this case?
Xiao Qian saw his doubts, nodded and said: "As you guessed, Your Majesty has always been very concerned about the death of Marquis Ding'an and the destruction of the [-] Lin Family Army."

It can be regarded as a reassurance for Lu Zhong.

Lu Zhong suddenly realized that he couldn't help breaking out in cold sweat. Fortunately, today is here. If not, when the truth is revealed in the future, he will not escape death.

On the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, Lin Yanyan finally received Jing Yuan's letter, which was a thick stack.

Thousands of words, between the lines, all reflect his indignation.

The hardships and dangers of the world and the evilness of the people's hearts, he saw it clearly this time.

It took Lin Yanyan a long time to read the letter carefully, but she was speechless for a while.

The situation over there was more tragic than she had imagined.

The rice grains transported by uncle and the others were sold at 15 taels a shi, which is half the price of the local area. The 30 shi was looted within two days. It was later learned that those people who came to loot were sent by local big families. Yes, it means that all of them fell into the hands of big households, and they sold them at a price of [-] taels.

Afterwards, the uncle raised the price to 29 taels, but it was still all taken away by the big family.

Until the second batch, the third batch, and the rice and grain gathered by Zhou Datong came in a steady stream, the big households couldn't eat anymore. In addition, Yang Jinnian's disaster relief food arrived and opened warehouses to release the grain. The big players realized that something was wrong.

If the obvious is not good, then the dark will come, and all kinds of shady tricks have been used.

Uncle and Jing Yuan's foothold was set on fire in the middle of the night. If uncle hadn't taken strict precautions, even people and rice would have been burnt to the ground.

Lin Yanyan replied with a pen, telling Jing Yuan to be more careful, because they are far away in the two lakes, and even if she has all kinds of means, she will never be able to catch up.

On the eighteenth day of the first lunar month, Lord Yang Chen and Chen Qianyao came to join Lin Yanyan. Today is Zheng Zixuan and Chu Zhilan's big day.The three of them first went to Chuzhilan's to give gifts to congratulate, and then went to Zheng Zixuan's mansion to congratulate.

Seeing Zheng Zixuan's shy and coquettish appearance, the entire Zheng family was beaming, and Lin Yanyan felt mixed feelings.

This should be the last lively event of the Zheng family. After today, Xiao Qian's side will start to act.

In fact, it is already on the move. The Shuntian Mansion arrested many people yesterday, and there was a lot of commotion, claiming to the outside world that it had arrested several secret agents of Bei Di'an who had been planted in the capital.

These details were confessed by Guo Yongli, the murderer of the Meng family massacre, but Xiao Qian never touched these people, but sent someone to watch them.

These actions are intended to scare the snake away.

After Zheng Peixin returned to Beijing, he visited many old friends and made friends, and walked up and down, but he didn't contact Princess Xinyang. Perhaps the way they contacted was relatively hidden, and Xiao Qian couldn't find it for a while.

Now that such a big incident happened, it's no wonder Zheng Peixin and Xinyang can still sit still.

Coming out of Zheng's mansion, Lord Yang Jin said: "Yanyan, do you have something on your mind? I think you have been absent-minded all day."

Lin Yanyan forced a smile: "It's nothing, I just feel a little bit emotional, time flies so fast, everyone is getting married."

"Sister Yanyan, don't you want to get married too?" Chen Qianyao teased.

"What are you talking about? I don't want to. It's great to be a girl, free and easy, married, and in a completely strange environment, being restrained everywhere, it's boring."

Yang Jinjun smiled: "Don't stop talking, I will see if you marry or not."

Lin Yanyan blushed slightly, Xiao Qian was a different matter, liking someone, even through all difficulties and dangers, if she were to marry someone like Chu Zhilan and the others, who had never met a few times or said a word, she would I'm not happy.

"Hey...my family is asking me to kiss me again in Zhang Luo, I'm so annoyed." Chen Qianyao pouted in displeasure.

She doesn't understand, what are those people who are anxious to get married when they reach their age, what are they thinking in their hearts?

Isn't it good to be a daughter at home?It's okay to be willful and coquettish if you have parents. After you get married, you can try being willful again?The label of unfeminine morality was immediately put on.

Anyway, she is not in a hurry, she is only seventeen in the new year, so she can procrastinate as much as she can.

The smile on Yang Yujun's face gradually disappeared, and he said quietly: "My mother is also showing me."

Lu Zhaonan said that he had written to his father, asking him or his concubine to come in person to propose marriage.

But southern Xinjiang is so far away, I don't know how long it will take to go back and forth.Yang Yujun was afraid that he would not be able to make it in time. His parents were determined to marry her off this year.

Lin Yanyan's melancholy words were originally a perfunctory question from Jun Jun, but they made the two friends feel very anxious, and they didn't know what to say.
