Chapter 51 Xia Ji, are you afraid of me?

Two days later, Xia Hanyu met Zheng Hai at the last inn and signed a snow salt contract with him. There was only one requirement, that is, the salt price must be exactly the same as the official salt price, and the price must not be increased indiscriminately. If he breaks a taboo in Japan, the court will not sign any more contracts with him.

As for the person who revealed the information to him before, Jinyiwei found out that he was just a guard guarding the door. He heard the information by accident and sold it to Zheng Hai. That was all.

Although he was not severely punished, he had to stay in prison for a year and a half as punishment to avoid revealing information that should not be disclosed.

Three days later, under Xia Hanyu's instructions, Xia Ji took the Jinyi guards to the military camp and took Fan Ren away directly, on the grounds that he was embezzling military pay.

As the deputy general of Cheng Ying, he had always been in contact with the logistics personnel regarding military pay, but he took advantage of his position and quietly embezzled countless military supplies and military pay to be transported out of the military camp.

In this regard, Xia Hanyu did not accuse him unfairly.

Cheng Ying already felt something when he saw Xia Hanyu targeting Fan Ren, but he didn't expect that what he committed was so serious, and he felt a lot depressed.

"Master Xia, all this is my fault. If I hadn't trusted him so much for so many years, I wouldn't have... ugh!"

He punched the table hard, causing the objects on it to shake.

Xia Ji looked away from the table calmly, "Your Highness asked your subordinate to tell General Cheng that this is not your fault, but the traitor is too thoughtful and ordinary people cannot avoid it, let alone Fan Ren has been under your control for nearly twenty years. , if he wants to hide it, or even use your identity and position to take advantage of it, you won't be able to detect it, just be more careful next time."

"Fortunately, His Highness was aware of this matter. His Highness knew that you were innocent and directly asked us, the Jinyi Guards, to investigate and deal with the culprit. If one day he is used in front of His Majesty, you should understand the seriousness of this matter."

Cheng Ying nodded, "Of course I understand that if this matter reaches the court, those who have long been dissatisfied with me will definitely not let me go."

Those people would just tear him into pieces and eat them like a piece of delicious fat!

"Master Xia, please thank Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess for your kindness in protecting me."

Xia Ji nodded, "That's it, I'll take my leave."

After saying that, he raised his hand and Yu Xiao led the Jinyi Guards and several others, pressing Fan Ren away.

Teacher's Mansion.

"What did you say!" After receiving the news, Shi Huarong hurriedly dragged his body, which had not yet recovered, to Shi Heng's house.

"Brother, what can we do? If Fan Ren is gone, who else can we use in the military camp outside the city?"

During this period of time, they have been more unlucky than ever before, first themselves, then without Cai Sheng, and now Xia Hanyu suddenly touches Fan Ren!

Shi Heng's face looked a little livid, "Rong Rong, do you know why Fan Ren was taken away by the Jin Yiwei?"

"I heard that it was because he contradicted Xia Hanyu in the army and was later found to have embezzled military pay. He was taken away from the military camp by the Jinyi Guards."

It is not easy to recruit a general in the army. If Cheng Ying had not suppressed the soldiers below, Jin Yiwei would not be able to recruit him at all.

"What a waste!"

Shi Heng cursed, "But let him get some military supplies and military pay from it. It's only been a few years... He has nothing to do to provoke that evil star. Doesn't he think his life is in danger?"

It doesn't matter if Fan Ren is dead, but it ruins his plans for the past few years. Where can he find another officer who is as trusted by Cheng Ying as he is!

Moreover, after what happened to him, Cheng Ying will definitely not trust anyone again, which will also create a huge problem for them to regain the palace in the future, and even have to postpone the time of their originally decided uprising.

Shi Heng was in a terrible mood at this time. He was so excited that he accidentally touched the wound again, and he suddenly gasped in pain.

The anxious Shi Huarong looked worried, but he could only do nothing to help.

Royal Palace.

"Your Highness." Xia Ji sorted out all the details of Fan Ren's interrogation and sent it to Xia Hanyu. "The evidence has been collected. He also asked about the delivery address of the batch of military supplies and military pay. It is not far from Shangjing. In the village."

Xia Hanyu casually flipped through the information in his hand, and after listening to his narration, he sneered and lowered his eyes.

"They are probably not copycat robbers there, but some remnants of the previous dynasty." He was hiding in the place closest to Shangjing, thinking that he was waiting for an order from those two people.

"Not bad." Xia Ji nodded, his eyes sharp and deep, with murderous intent.

"Can we find out how many remnants there are in total?"

Xia Ji: "I have personally investigated and found that there are more than two thousand people."

"So few?" Xia Hanyu was a little surprised and looked up at him, "Are there really only these people? Are there still some hiding in the dark?"

"I am very sure. Moreover, those people lived a life of luxury and chaos up there. I am afraid that all the previous military salary has been consumed by them."

Daxia is currently short of military supplies. Previously, His Highness even had to worry about these matters personally, but how dare these people be so wanton!

Xia Ji felt that the embroidered spring knife in his hand could not wait to see blood.

"They have been working hard for so long, and they ended up with such waste?"

Even if a person like this really conquers the world, how will the people survive?

Xia Hanyu closed his eyes, and anger flashed through his eyes.

"In that case, let's kill them all, leaving only one or two leaders. See where else they have buried people, and dig them all out for me!"

She didn't believe that all the previous sins were such waste!

The sooner it is eradicated, the sooner she can feel at ease.

"Wei." Xia Ji looked at her with some worry, pursed his lips, and said after a while: "I will take the three thousand people with me to find out whether they are capable of being elite soldiers."

"Also...this is all their information. I have sent people to investigate it in the past few days, and no problems have been found yet."

Poria stepped forward to take it and handed it to Xia Hanyu.

Xia Hanyu nodded, her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and she said with a smile, "I know, thank you for your hard work."

Xia Ji took a step back in fear and knelt down on one knee.

"I don't dare, thank you, Your Highness."

The smile at the corner of Xia Hanyu's mouth suddenly deepened. She raised her hand slightly, and Fu Ling hurriedly stepped forward to help her up. She walked to him step by step, leaning down slightly, her beautiful eyebrows showing a little doubt.

"Xia Ji, are you afraid of me?"

Xia Hanyu had seen him being fierce and ruthless when handling cases outside. He was as ruthless as a puppet who could only kill people. He always pursed his lips with an expressionless face. No matter what vicious remarks people outside said about him, he would not blink an eye. one time.

But such a person looked different in front of her, which made her a little bit curious about him and curious about the reason.

It can’t be...

"Does this palace look terrible?"
