The demon witch is her white moonlight

Le Xiaoyi waved his hand to let Hongying go down first, while he stayed in the study, picked up the report and read it carefully again.

The situation of the Yan Dynasty is clear. The former prince named Li Qin is a man of benevolence and righteousness who is knowledgeable, courteous and virtuous, but the prime minister is too powerful, and the prince is still very young. He is not Liang Shu's opponent at all. , The prince was framed and imprisoned.

The reasons for being imprisoned are nothing more than soliciting the party for personal gain, embracing soldiers to rebel, a foolish emperor listening to the words of treacherous ministers, "making mistakes" to the prince again and again, and being disappointed because he does not know how to repent.

In the end, it was found out that the prince had an affair with Yuan Tianhe, who supported himself two years ago, and also had contact with the black gold iron cavalry in private. The faint emperor was furious and shouted "I'm not dead yet!" Heaven prison, ask to beheaded soon.

Seeing this, Le Xiaoyi also has a certain understanding of the situation of the Yan Dynasty. Xuantian Palace must support the New Deal and the deposed prince. The Yan Dynasty has no external rivals, and the internal emperor is fatuous. A traitor is in power without knowing it.

What Liang Shu plotted was the whole world, the throne of the emperor.

And Liang Shu already had the support of many courtiers behind him. If there is no external help, the prince has almost no chance of winning.

Liang Shu is old, and the rebellion must have happened in the past few years. Xuantian Palace's previous plan to kill Liang Shu failed. In the past two years, Xuantian Palace has been restrained everywhere.

Ji Yuxuan was already busy with affairs, and there was very little energy allocated here, so if she wanted to hand her over to Le Xiaoyi to take care of her, she would definitely want to experience Le Xiaoyi's experience.

Just killing Liang Shu is not enough. There are mysterious forces behind Liang Shu. Even if Liang Shu falls, they can still support a new Liang Shu. Loyal and righteous people with two sleeves are rare, and they can do it for profit. There are a lot of corrupt officials caught.

After all, Li Qin had to stand up on his own. If he didn't rebel and insisted on sticking to the old principles of loyalty to the emperor, he would be a mess that couldn't be supported.

Le Xiaoyi put down the report, and returned to the purpose of coming here in the first place - to find natural materials and earth treasures in exchange for Buddha points.

So sad.

There was no progress in the main business, but a pile of trivial matters on the body, Le Xiaoyi got up sadly and turned around in Ji Yuxuan's study room, his eyes swept aimlessly at the closet next to the desk, suddenly condensate.

There are many books stacked on the closet. In addition, there is an open map covering the territory of the entire Yan Dynasty.

There are some marks on the map. These marks are strange. Some of them have annotations and can be understood, but most of them are too obscure. Le Xiaoyi studied for a long time, but he didn't understand the meaning of these marks.

Le Xiaoyi called Hongying in and asked her: "Is this map left by the Young Palace Master?"

"Yes." Hongying's answer was concise and to the point.

"Then do you know what these marks mean?" Le Xiaoyi pointed to one of the places where a cloud-shaped mark was circled with a red pen, and asked Hongying.

Hongying nodded: "This is a vein of cloud iron ore. It was originally a place to provide raw materials for the army of the Yan Dynasty."

"In recent years, the Yan Dynasty has repeatedly disarmed, and Yuntie has become the most worthless thing. Many Yuntie mines have stopped working, and the craftsmen have evacuated, turning them into waste mines. The one marked on the map was secretly mined after the imperial army withdrew. , should be from the lineage of the prime minister, but no evidence has been found yet."

Le Xiaoyi said oh, that's how it is.

If the prime minister wants to raise troops to rebel, he must raise private soldiers in private, and he himself will not leave the handle in the hands of the king, but will raise soldiers in various parts of the dynasty through his confidants.

Every time the emperor abolished a vein of cloud iron ore, the prime minister would order someone to secretly take it over, dig it and cast it into a weapon.

Le Xiaoyi thought of something, smiled slightly, and asked, "Did the prime minister also propose the idea of ​​disarmament?"

"Master Chen is right. It is indeed Liang Shu's proposal." Le Xiaoyi guessed this, and Hongying was not surprised. We don’t need so many troops, instead of letting these soldiers do nothing with their salaries, it is better to distribute food and grass to the people so that these soldiers can go home and reunite with their parents.”

Oh, what a high-sounding excuse!Le Xiaoyi listened to the music.

Hongying also felt it was funny, so she couldn't help but frowned, and continued: "At that time, the crown prince strongly opposed this proposal, but most of the civil and military courts in the Manchu dynasty were against the prime minister, and Liang Shu labeled Li Qin as unsympathetic to the common people, and hinted at the emperor in a circumstantial way The prince wants to be in charge of the army, so that the faint king will think that the prince has no virtue but is ambitious."

Le Xiaoyi felt that this Li Qin was quite pitiful. I heard that although his mother is a queen, she has no real power and a soft temper. .

The reason why the prince became the prince was because although the emperor had many concubines, he had only one son, so he was established as the prince. Restricted by the prime minister, it is difficult to do anything.

But a few years ago, the emperor was happy to have a young son, the youngest son was born of a favorite concubine, and was deeply loved by the emperor. In the past two years, because of the slander of treacherous officials, and the frequent troubles caused by the prince, there was a hidden idea of ​​abolishing the prince and establishing another prince.

Liang Shu didn't want the prince to make a comeback, so he wanted to put the prince to death.

It's a pity that Liang Shu is old and cunning, and he acts very carefully. It is meaningless to speculate the truth without evidence.

Ji Yuxuan could have kept Li Qin before he went to prison, but she didn't do so. Le Xiaoyi guessed that Ji Yuxuan probably wanted to take this opportunity to let Li Qin see the face of Hunjun. , Ji Yuxuan would give up on him too.

But the little prince is young after all, so it is the next policy, if he can support the prince to rise to the throne, the days of peace in the world will come sooner.

The two factions in the imperial court are fighting, and military strength is the key to victory, so Liang Shu, an old thief, has been sharpening his sword for a long time, and the faint king still doesn't know anything about it, it's just ridiculous.

"Other than the cloud iron veins, what do these strange marks mean?" Knowing about the mineral veins, Le Xiaoyi shifted her attention to several other incomprehensible marks on the map, and asked Hongying to explain her confusion .

"These triangular marks are the places where Liang Shu may have raised private soldiers. Xuanfengtang has sent people to investigate, and the two leaf-shaped marks are the places where there have been rumors of rare medicinal herbs in the past two years. The red dots are There are places where strange beasts haunt, and besides..." Hongying talked on and on, introducing Le Xiaoyi all the strange-shaped marks on the entire map.

After hearing this, Le Xiaoyi stared at the leaf-shaped marks and red dot marks on the map with burning eyes.

What is there to say?

It’s not a waste of time to break through the iron shoes.

Did Ji Yuxuan do it on purpose, or on purpose?

The fact is obvious, even if she has nothing to do with Ji Yuxuan, Ji Yuxuan must have known about her becoming a tester of the Futu Palace.

In other words, it is known in advance.

Otherwise, where did Ji Yuxuan get the time to arrange all of this and secretly give her a little trouble?

Le Xiaoyi felt a little bit of sweet trouble, what should he do if his sweetheart spoils her too much?Everything is thoughtful, just like playing chess, she plans two or three moves ahead, and Ji Yuxuan has already managed ten moves away for her.

Everything she wants is on this map. Although Hongying told her clearly that the marks on this map may not be completely accurate, and more than [-]% of the marks need further verification, but for Le Xiaoyi , this picture has saved her countless hours.

For those who are not sure, she can check it herself.

After letting Hongying back down, Le Xiaoyi took out a blank piece of paper, compared it with the map and came up with a simplified version, only made a few simple marks, omitting most unnecessary marks.

Only she can understand this picture, so it doesn't matter if she carries it with her.

After doing these things, Le Xiaoyi informed Hongying and left Xuanfengtang.

Hongying had expected this for a long time, so she didn't say anything, she only said before Le Xiaoyi left: "This subordinate will regularly report the progress of saving lives to Master Chen."

"Thank you." Le Xiaoyi nodded.

It doesn't matter whether the progress is reported or not, Xuanfengtang has its own operating system, basically there is no need for her to do anything, but Ji Yuxuan let her take care of it, she will not slack off, and if necessary, she will take action herself.

Le Xiaoyi was in a good mood when he left with the map. Let's put aside the matter of Hong Meng'er for now, and there is no rush. Right now only Ji Yuxuan has the means to invite the genius doctor of Medicine God Valley, and she has not been able to see him. Ji Yuxuan, let's wait until she thinks about how to speak to Ji Yuxuan, or if there are other ways to talk about it.

The nearest marker to the royal capital is Tieping Mountain in Yunjiang, marked with a red dot, which means that strange beasts appear.

This mark was verified by Ji Yuxuan. There were indeed strange beasts infesting this place. More than one person witnessed the strange beast's attack. The people at the foot of Tieping Mountain were terrified and even reported it to the authorities.

But the soldiers sent by the government to catch the monsters never returned. I heard that all these people died in the mountains. It rained that day, and the rainwater washed down on the bodies, and the water running down the mountain was red.

The people in the nearby villages became even more frightened, and they invited Mr. Monster Catcher to get rid of the demon, but unfortunately, Mr. Catcher never came back.

Among these people, only one survived at the end. When he came down from the mountain, he was insane and completely lost his mind. It took several days to recover a little bit, but he didn't talk often. He sat in a daze during the day, staring at a clearing, Woke up screaming at night, going crazy in the yard, smashing things.

This person is currently living in Yangou Village at the foot of Tieping Mountain. Le Xiaoyi went to Yangou Village this time to find out.

On the third day after Le Xiaoyi left, Ji Yuxuan appeared in Xuanfeng Hall, Hongying bowed her head, and told about Chen Yuruo's visit to Xuanfeng Hall a few days ago and the affairs in the hall during this period.

People have left?So fast?

Want to meet again, now it seems that it is a bit difficult, I am afraid that even Le Xiaoyi will not be able to find him.

Ji Yuxuan frowned, and sighed inwardly: "Do you know where she went first?"

"My subordinates don't know, Master Chen didn't say anything." Hongying shook her head, "But my subordinates speculate that Master Chen may go to the nearest Yunjiang."

"Yeah." Ji Yuxuan nodded.

She flipped through the newly submitted report a few times, and suddenly her hands froze.

This memorial mentions the strange beasts in Yunjiang Tieping Mountain.

——A herd of strange beasts appeared on Tieping Mountain. Tens of thousands of beasts made a pilgrimage, and a beast king might be born, whose strength is hard to estimate.
