Three days later, Governor Zhou came back to report.

"There's no one in the mine anymore, but we found a lot of weapons that we haven't had time to transport away. There are about [-] pieces." Zhou Junshou clasped his hands and reported.

"So, it's really an arsenal there?" Yu Huai put down the cup in his hand, frowning with fear.

"I'm afraid it is." Sweat was pouring down on Zhou Junshou's forehead, "Your Majesty, look, do you want to send Ning Inspector to lead the troops?" If you have a different heart, you have to send troops to escort you as soon as possible.

"That's fine, you write a document to let Governor Ning lead the troops to come to Pingling County." Yu Huai said.

"I'm going to take care of this right now." Governor Zhou stepped back slowly.

In the study, Yu Huai was dealing with state affairs, and Yu Zehuan had nothing to do, so he rubbed ink for Yu Huai, "Ah Huai, do you suspect that there are rebels hiding here?" Yu Zehuan asked.

Yu Huai's cold expression warmed up slightly, he looked at Yu Zehuan, "Yes, if you sell it privately, you won't be able to use so many weapons. Recently, Donglin Kingdom was beaten by General Zhang, and it has already rolled back to the sea. Aoliang Kingdom in the north It was also hit hard by the plague, and there was no way to harass the border for a few years, so it could only be rebels." It's not that Yu Huai didn't think about the small countries around him, but the population of those small countries is not as large as that of the Lanjia country. Therefore, he didn't think it was the neighboring small countries. Moreover, the Lanjia Kingdom had been friendly with them for hundreds of years and had intermarried with them, so it couldn't be those small countries.

Yu Zehuan frowned, Yu Zehuan stood by Yu Huai's side, watching him write a letter like a snake, "Do you want to let Jiang Feng come back?" Yu Zehuan had also met Jiang Feng, that man was good at martial arts, and he was good at leading soldiers First hand, the key is that he is in Jiangnan now, not too far from here.

"Gu has already sent him a letter, and he will arrive in five days." Yu Huai said, and Gu Feng also knew that the two were secretly exchanging letters when they went on a tour this time. The army is coming.

After knocking on the door a few times, Yu Huai knew that it was the shadow guard who came back when he heard the knock on the door at this frequency. He glanced outside the door, put down the brush in his hand, and asked the shadow guard to take out the letter after he finished writing the letter.

Yu Zehuan silently memorized the golden ink he used. This kind of ink was actually invisible. After writing, the letter paper was dried and no trace could be seen. It seems that this is the secret letter that Yu Huai always used to contact the Shadow Guard and the Dark Guard. .There was also a "hidden" seal on the secret letter paper, and Yu Huai didn't cover it up, showing Yu Zehuan a big show. The seal was in the baggage he carried with him.

"Come in."

"Your Majesty, that strange man has been found." Ying San brought him in front of Yu Huai and Yu Zehuan, and the Governor of Zhou came to return.This time was very dangerous, fortunately the emperor sent shadow guards to protect him, otherwise, he would have died in Xiliang Mountain.

"Who are you?" The strange man trembled, and then he saw Yu Huai sitting in front and Yu Zehuan standing beside Yu Huai.

"It's you?" He was a little surprised. These two people were people he had rescued on the mountain a few days ago. They were extremely handsome, and they had a kind of nobility on their bodies. They were not the children of ordinary people.

"Tell us, what happened here?" Yu Huai asked.

"Huh, it's useless to tell you, unless the emperor comes." The man said arrogantly, what can the two sons do, it's not that he looks down on them, unless the emperor comes in person, they can't deal with the people on the mountain.

"Bold! Do you know that the person sitting in front of you is the current emperor!" Ying San scolded, Ying San was originally hiding and waiting, but who would have thought that the person in front of him would not know how to offend his master.

"Your Majesty?" The strange man fell to his knees and looked at Yu Huai in disbelief. Could it be that the Son of Heaven really came?

"The last general has seen the emperor, long live the emperor, long live, long live!" The strange man slammed his head on the ground heavily and saluted.

It turned out that he was a lieutenant under the Shanling County. About two years ago, bandits ran rampant in Xiliang Mountain at the junction of Pingling County and Zaling County. He led troops to suppress the bandits, but all the troops he brought were in Xiliang Mountain. Disappeared.

This incident was a sensation at the time. At that time, Yu Zehuan was in control of the government. Knowing about this incident, he sent someone to inquire. The result was that the army and bandits were all dead, and there was no survivor. After several investigations, there were no clues. , this matter will be left alone, I didn't expect to have a follow-up article here.

"There is a well-trained army on that mountain. The soldiers I led originally wiped out many bandits, but when we entered the hinterland of the mountain, we were ambushed and all my soldiers died on the mountain." Li Fei's eyes were red when he got here, "I wanted to investigate the weirdness inside and avenge my brothers, but I found out that it was an arsenal. They caught all the people who got lost in the mountain and took them into the cave to mine iron. Every day you can see dead bodies carried out of the mine." Du Lifei's expression became very resentful, "Those people are beasts, they don't care about the lives of ordinary people. After I go down the mountain, I want to take this matter Tell Mr. Li that when I went to the sheriff's mansion, I found out that there was a person who looked exactly like me in the sheriff's mansion. I panicked, fearing that they would kill people to silence me, so I didn't report it."

"They disguise the army as bandits here, and often go down the mountain to snatch people."

"Later, I watched the nearby villagers sometimes go up the mountain, fearing that they would all be killed by those people, so I pretended to be monsters to scare them." Du Lifei kowtowed and said.

Yu Huai and Yu Zehuan looked at each other, "He said that it was true that an army disappeared here. I investigated for a long time, but I couldn't find the missing soldier. Later, the disappearance case of Xiliangshan disappeared. I didn't continue to send people to investigate." Yu Zehuan said with serious eyes, he didn't expect that there would be such a big secret in this mountain.

Yu Huai knocked on the desk, the thoughts in his eyes were unpredictable.

"Du Zhengwei leads the decree, and orders you to be the imperial envoy. Return to Pingling County immediately, and arrest the rebels in Pingling County." Yu Huai immediately wrote an imperial decree.

"Mr. Zhou, from now on, close all the city gates in Pingling County, and wait for the order to open the gates."

The two led the decree and went down one after another.

"Ah Huai, Captain Du has no soldiers, how can he catch the rebels?" Yu Zehuan was puzzled. If the rebels had already controlled Sanling County and had no troops, wouldn't the other party directly kill the imperial envoy?

"Siling County is not under the control of the rebels. What he said may be true. Since there is a problem, let him investigate. The governor of Siling County belongs to me. He has the military power and cannot lose it." Yu Huai said .

Yu Zehuan and the others continued to live in Zhou Junshou's house.

At night, Yu Huai and Yu Zehuan went to bed early.

Suddenly, a strange wind came from outside the door, and there was a trace of killing intent in the wind.

The assassin entered the house, stabbing the long sword into the quilt.

"No one!" the assassin whispered.

At this time, shadow guards appeared one after another and surrounded them, and the two sides quickly fought.

After the fight was over, the shadow guards arrested the assassins for interrogation, and Yu Huaicai and Yu Zehuan returned to the West Wing.

"Did you expect the assassination today?" Yu Zehuan asked while hugging Yu Huai. It was already late at night. In the afternoon, Yu Huai asked Yu Zehuan to leave the East Wing. The shadow guard enters with makeup.

"Well, the dark guard received the news that someone is coming to assassinate tonight."

The shadow guard reported, "Master, all the assassins committed suicide by taking poison." They had checked beforehand that there was no poison in their mouths. Unexpectedly, when the time came, these people were all dead. "They have already taken poison before they came." Shadow Three report back.

"The clue was interrupted." Yu Zehuan was a little uneasy, "Ah Huai, why don't we go back to the palace?" He was a little worried that something would happen here.

"If you don't enter the tiger's lair, you won't catch tiger cubs. This time, I will uproot them." Yu Huai said with his eyes narrowed as he put his arms around Yu Zehuan. The emperor's power was very powerful.

Yu Zehuan was a little worried. As expected, he could only be a courtier. He couldn't give such an order to do a big job.

On the second day, the envoy from the post station came to the sheriff's mansion.

"Your Majesty, the Eldest Princess came back from Nanyue Kingdom a few days ago. She wants to come back to visit her relatives. The team will arrive in Zaling County tomorrow."

"Princess?" Yu Zehuan was a little puzzled, he had no memory of this person.

"It's the lonely elder sister. She was married to Nanyue when I was three years old, and she hasn't been back for more than 20 years." Yu Huai said lightly. Obviously, he didn't have much affection for this elder sister whom he had never met.

"Why are you back at this time?" Yu Zehuan was a little worried.

"Don't worry, my eldest sister has been married to Nanyue Kingdom for 20 years, she will not pose a threat to us." Yu Huai comforted.
