Our Mommy is the Best Investigator!

  Chapter 840 Ouchi Secret Agent

  Looking at her deep smile, Ma Laifu never understood the deep meaning of her words.

  Now my most respected elder sister Zhi has become the queen of the world, even though she said that she should not have **** with her, but Ma Laifu is like a mirror in his heart, she is no longer the woman in the village in the past.

  The so-called difference between monarch and minister, he still understands this truth.

  Since she didn't want to say more, she didn't dare to ask more, and she tried her best to protect her and run errands for the emperor's brother-in-law.

  As the sky brightened, the fog in the gray sky gradually dispersed.

  Thirty miles away from Jingling City, at the peak of the northwest foothills, a group of people were looking down at the chariots and horses slowly heading west.

  In the cold wind, the leader's clothes fluttered, and as the horses and horses went down the mountain, his eyes became more empty and lonely.

   "Since Your Majesty does not want the Queen to go west, why did you agree to the Queen's proposal?"

  Seeing Lin Jinxiao's melancholy face, Zhang Yu beside him couldn't help asking with concern.

   "How can this empress be restrained by a few deep palace walls."

Lin Jinxiao sighed helplessly, then looked at the few confidants who followed him up the mountain, and immediately ordered: "Li Sanmu, you lead the two thousand brothers from the Xiaoqi camp of the original Pingning Prince's Mansion to **** the Queen into Tanzhou secretly, and when you arrive at Tanzhou Later, they will enter the city in batches pretending to be merchants, and if there is any change, they will be ready to meet the chief Sima at any time, and must protect the queen to leave safely."

   "The last general takes orders."

  Li Sanmu didn't dare to delay for a moment, and immediately went down the mountain to follow the car driving in the distance.

  Watching Li Sanmu walk away, and the westbound car gradually disappearing from sight, Lin Jinxiao led Zhang Yu and Nie Duo, who had just returned from the north, to go down the mountain and return to the city.

On the way, Lin Jinxiao was still full of apprehensions, and told Nie Duo: "Brother Nie had accompanied Princess Shu to lead troops in the land of Qinghe in the early years, so he has some understanding of the situation in each state. Although He Ying has taken over Mengzhou The soldiers and horses in Qingyang City, but Xiazhou still makes me very worried. I am worried that if there is a riot in Tanzhou, the Rongdi people will take the opportunity to go south, and I have to take another trip for me to defend Xiazhou."

   "Don't worry, Your Majesty, even if the last general is smashed to pieces, he will never let Xiazhou lose an inch of land."

  Nie Duo replied confidently.

  After making a series of arrangements, thinking about the disaster situation in various parts of the north and the Qinghe Three Prefectures where the situation is temporarily unpredictable, Lin Jinxiao finally told Zhang Yu:

"Natural disasters continue this year. In addition to ordering the soldiers and horses of the prefectures to strengthen precautions, the general should be more cautious about Binzhou and Qizhou. Right now, the queen is going west for the imperial court. There must be no mistakes. In two days, you will go to Binzhou and Qizhou in person. Going to the state, the governor ordered the captains of the two states to secretly gather troops and horses to the border of Tanzhou, and make preparations to meet the queen. Once Ji Huaizhang changes, the flames of war must not spread out of Tanzhou."

  Zhang Yu nodded understandingly: "Your Majesty, you should pay respects first and then go to war. If Ji Huaizhang and Qinghe nobles still do not repent, I must let them know the imperial court's might."

  With these precise arrangements, Lin Jinxiao felt at ease.

  Even if Ji Huaizhang could not be wiped out in a short period of time, it was more than a mistake for Empress Bao to return to Beijing.

  He was concerned about the disaster situation in various places, and he didn't intend to stay outside the palace too much, so he hurried back to the palace.

After driving for more than ten days in a row, after passing Binzhou, the weather here formed a great contrast with Jingling City when we came here. The snow-covered scenery everywhere, the scenery of powder makeup and jade lays a great contrast to those who are rushing to Danzhou Prefecture. For Chu Nanzhi, it became a great hindrance.

   Fortunately, it is already close to the Danzhou border, and the bumpy days are finally coming to an end.

   Seeing the night fall, Chu Nanzhi had no choice but to ask Li Ce to rest at an inn along the way.

  At night, Du Qian made some side dishes from the ingredients in the inn and brought them in.

  After a long day of driving, looking at the delicious dishes, Chu Nanzhi was so greedy that his mouth was watering.

  There are poached chicken, big goose stewed in iron pot, red grilled bear's paw, braised pork, and even yellow croaker, which is rare in the northwest region, and wild rice stems that do not belong to this season all appeared on the dinner table.

  Chu Nanzhi ordered Sang Qi to eat while she couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "I didn't expect such a remote place to have such rich ingredients, which makes people underestimate."

   It would not be surprising if it was in the state capital of Binzhou or the county government here, but there are no shops in front of the village or back here. I thought it would be good to fill my stomach, but I even had a big meal.

   "I heard that the little ones were sent by the prefect of Ruyang County just a few days ago."

Du Qian reported the gossip he heard in the kitchen truthfully: "The business of this inn has been bleak recently. It is said that the shopkeeper is about to close down. The prefect came here in person and not only gave the shopkeeper some money, but also told the shopkeeper to keep the inn running. Go down and say that there will be noble people here in the next few days."

   "The prefect of Ruyang County is a smart man."

  Chu Nanzhi said with a smile.

Thinking of the officials passing by the prefectures and counties who came to curry favour, she was full of contempt, so she deliberately avoided the counties and counties. She did not expect the prefect of Ruyang County to be so caring. She just asked the inns along the way to prepare more food. .

  Unexpectedly, just after she praised him, Ma Laifu came in mysteriously, shaking his head and sneering coldly: "In my opinion, the prefect of Ruyang County is too smart."

   After finishing speaking, he walked quickly to Chu Nanzhi, and asked angrily, "Sister Zhi, do you know why the business of this inn has declined?"

With his reminder, Chu Nanzhi suddenly realized something was wrong: "It stands to reason that this is the main road passing through Tanzhou, even if it is not full of guests every day, relying on the passing business travelers, it will not be so miserable. "

"exactly."

Ma Laifu replied: "It's just because many people died in this inn two months ago. It is said that more than ten people in the caravan who came to stay here died, and the prefect of Dangyang County learned that the caravan came from the direction of Tanzhou. The discoloration changed, and the case was closed as a robber robbing property and murdering, and after that, not to mention the passing business travelers, not even the fleeing people dared to come out of Tanzhou."

As he said that, he moved closer and said in a low voice: "Sister Zhi, I also found out that just two days before Mr. Tingwei entered Tanzhou, a group of refugees from Dangyang County fled to Ruyang County, and they alarmed everyone. The prefect of the two counties, guess what, the son of the prefect of Dangyang County belittled a good girl under the eyes of the prefect of Ruyang County, forcing the woman's father to bump her head to death in front of him, after which the refugees all returned obediently Domicile."

   "Is there such a shocking thing?"

  Chu Nanzhi couldn't help but sigh.

  Combined with the deaths of Lu Huan, Xia Yuan and Fang Qingyue, and the rumors that officials and officials in Qinghe Land were protecting each other, she had to believe that Ma Laifu found out the authenticity of these things.

   "Where is the prefect of Dangyang County?"

  Chu Nanzhi looked at Ma Laifu curiously: "Laifu, what else did you find out?"

Ma Laifu squinted his eyes, grinned coldly and said, "I heard that Sun You, the governor of Dangyang County, is the younger brother of Sun's concubine, the governor of Tanzhou. He was promoted to the county guard, and he and his son Sun Li have done all sorts of evil in the county all these years."

   Knowing that this matter has something to do with Ji Huaizhang, looking at the delicacies on the table, Chu Nanzhi immediately lost her appetite.

  Looks like I made the wrong payment after all.
