Within a few days, Pei Yuanshu went to the Jingzhou General Administration's Yamen for examination, and the first one to check was the salt and iron inspector.

Although they had known that Deng Tianguan was garrisoning in secret before coming, it was difficult to catch this kind of thing, so they had to find another way. As we all know, weapons and food are the most indispensable for fighting. As soldiers increase, the demand for these things will increase. As long as you follow this line, you should be able to get his handle.

The investigation should not be too blatant. After all, they are still stepping on other people’s turf. In case Deng Tianguan jumps over the wall, they will be in trouble, so they can only touch the bottom of the house quietly. The surrounding area is full of Deng Tianguan’s eyeliner, and some people follow him secretly when going out. , Chu Jinglan simply took Ye Huaiyang to the street together, pretending to be playing with his concubine.

I saw several blacksmith shops along the way. Not only did they sell not many things, they didn't seem to be of high quality, they were light, brittle and non-tough. At first glance, there were too many impurities in the raw materials, which was really substandard. At that time, Chu Jinglan inferred that Deng Tianguan wanted to confiscated raw materials in order to make weapons. Later, when he arrived at the Yinlou, Ye Huaiyang got out of the shopkeeper, and that was true. Without further ado, he immediately asked Pei Yuanshu to investigate.

After Chu Sanghuai ascended the throne, he transferred all the management rights of salt and iron to the imperial court. Therefore, there was the post of salt and iron inspector, who was mainly responsible for the collection and sale of local minerals. If you want to examine his official performance, those related account books are all The purpose is to let Pei Yuanshu achieve his goal. If there is an unreasonable outflow from the iron ore, he can follow the vines to find more clues, so as to settle Deng Tianguan's conspiracy.

Pei Yuanshu had been fighting the night lights until the early morning, and when he came to tell Chu Jinglan the time, he had already turned a few laps.

"how is it?"

The outside of the house was as dark as ink, and the light inside was like a bean. The two sat across the copper stove, and the charcoal heads in the inner chamber were burning red, continuously emitting waves of heat. Pei Yuanshu closed his sleeves slightly, always bowing his head and converging his eyes. Hearing Chu Jinglan's question, his face that was already in the shadows became more hesitant.

"My lord, the minister carefully checked those account books and found nothing wrong."

Chu Jinglan took the silver pot from the stove and folded his wrist slightly. Hot water poured out from the spout and filled two glass cups one after another. He pushed one to Pei Yuanshu, and then slowly said: "This king knows Up."

Pei Yuanshu raised his head because of this calm tone, and asked suspiciously: "The prince guessed it a long time ago?"

"Deng Tianguan is a shrewd man. I don't think there will be any mistakes in this kind of thing. It is normal if you can't find out."

"Then... this road is so broken?"

"Of course not. This king has already ordered someone to investigate the foundry around Jinguan City, and there should be news coming back soon." Chu Jinglan paused, his eyes fixed on him, "Go back and fix it. Tomorrow morning, the Shadow Guard will **** you to Lingnan. This king wants you to take down Changxin in the shortest time."

Pei Yuanshu almost stood up in shock.

"It will take more than three days to go back and forth to Lingnan. If King Qiyang finds that the minister is not there, he will surely guess that the minister has gone to Lingnan. Are you and the princess in danger?"

"So you have to as soon as possible."

Although Chu Jinglan's tone was faint, it was resolute and cold. Just like a dark night struck by a storm, an electric light suddenly struck down, and the sky was bright, and it also reflected the confused thoughts in Pei Yuanshu's mind. , He got up slowly and gave a deep bow to the front.

"Weichen will definitely live up to the prince's entrustment."

Chu Jinglan nodded slightly, took the brown envelope on the table and handed it to him, saying, "Look again on the road."

"Weichen obeyed." Pei Yuanshu took his hands and put them in his arms, then turned around and stepped out of the room.

The drum on Shili Long Street was struck suddenly, and the sound was deep and clear. The only way to beat the drums was that the long second half of the night had just begun. I don’t know that for the people in the drowsy house on the corner of the street, next The days will be even longer.

Back in the bedroom, Chu Jinglan quietly took off his shirt and went to bed in the dark, and a mass of warmth rolled into his arms, wrapped his hands and feet together with the ground, he took advantage of the situation, and asked slightly in surprise: "When did you wake up? "

Ye Huaiyang didn't open his eyes, and uttered a few words vaguely: "When you left."

Chu Jinglan took a breath, but didn't say anything else. He just covered her, and then closed her eyes. After a moment of silence, she thought she was asleep, but she was still asleep when she bent her arms. .

"Did Yuan Shu go?"

"Let's go." He replied flatly, and the ending sound seemed to rise slightly by half a tone, "Worry about him?"

The pink lips lifted up a beautiful arc, and then filled the ears with light and pleasant words: "I'm a little worried, after all, I'm a fool, and it's not easy to explain to Linger if I go back."

"As long as he does what I say, nothing goes wrong."

"That's natural. No one in Chu country can match my husband."

Ye Huaiyang's eyebrows and eyes were curved and smiling, like a crescent moon, slender and charming, but she couldn't prevent bursts of hot breath from spraying over. She raised her eyes and saw that Chu Jinglan didn't know when she got so close, and her handsome facial features were enlarged. Several times, especially those dark eyes, like a whirlpool that kept turning, slowly sucking away all her mind.

"On fish in troubled waters, none of the noble ladies in the family is your opponent."

Chu Jinglan raised his hand and lifted the leg that I didn't know when it was wrapped around his waist. The mist in Ye Huaiyang's eyes cleared away, and then he pouted, "Let me pick up the money bags. I'm empty, so what if someone makes me empty it?"

"There is business to do tomorrow."

Snapped! The proficiency strictly dismissed the opposing party's request for a friendship, and the opposing party quit, and directly threw out the killer.

"Do you have a habit of breaking sleeves?"

Chu Jinglan's face turned green after hearing this, she held her slender waist with a big palm, and pressed her to the bed. "If you talk nonsense again, tomorrow I will let Tang Qingfeng send you back to the capital. ."

Ye Huaiyang snorted and turned his head to ignore him.

Will threaten people, what a hero!

She was thinking so angrily, but after all she couldn't stop the drowsiness coming, but she was crushed by Chu Jinglan and couldn't turn around, so she turned her head and fell asleep like this. She didn't know how strong she was, and Chu Jinglan leaned over. Looking at her, there was a light smile on her lips, then she smoothly corrected her sleeping position, turned over and lay flat, and moved her into her arms again.

Sleep well all night.

In the early morning of the next day, Pei Yuanshu set off when they were still asleep, and quietly left Jinguan City under the cover of the shadow guards, spurred all the way, and arrived safely in Lingnan in the evening, and rushed directly after entering the city. Frontier defense camp.

Chang Xin was not unsurprised by his arrival.

As a secret ally of Deng Tianguan, she had known that the court had sent people to Jingzhou to investigate, but she never expected that one of them would appear in her camp a few days later, single-handedly, frankly, and she made her for a while. Can't guess his intention.

"Brother Pei, what are you..."

Pei Yuan fell on one knee and said in a deep voice, "Qing Hui, I'm late!"

The two of them were originally from the same hometown. When he opened his mouth, he called Chang Xin's small characters. This time, even if Chang Xin had more worries and precautions, he was eliminated by three points, and he stepped over to help him up and said: "Pei Brother, what is this? I can't do it if you want to break it?"

Pei Yuanshu shook his head heavily, and said, "I'm just being ordered."

Hearing that, Chang Xin seemed to be struck by lightning, with a face of ignorance, "Is the emperor... let you come?"

"That's it." Pei Yuanshu's eyes were far-reaching, full of unshakable determination, "Before the disaster of Bai Xing messed up Lingnan, and the Bai clan was covering him in the king's capital, so no one knew the situation here, which caused the emperor. Misunderstood that you committed a retrograde crime. Later, the truth became clear, and the emperor only executed one of Bai Xing because of the Bai clan’s forces. After that, he could not bear it until he uprooted him a few days ago. No, he immediately sent me over. ."

Chang Xin is still ignorant: "What are you going to do?"

Pei Yuanshu sighed long, as if sighing that she didn't know what she liked.

"Of course it's here to comfort and reward you. Previously, the emperor was forced by the Bai clan to make you feel wronged. Now that the Bai clan has been removed, you should pay back your innocence. You have to understand the emperor’s difficulties. Treacherous ministers are in trouble for many things, and it is inevitable that a loyal and loyal person like Qinghui will be aggrieved. The emperor is also sad!"

Chang Xin was shocked and asked in disbelief, "The emperor... really said that?"

"Can there be fakes?" Pei Yuanshu's eyes widened, seeming to blame her for being ignorant, and when she saw that she was really unbelieving, he took out the letter in his arms, "Here, you can read it for yourself. I am afraid that there is no second person in the country to have your honor!"

Chang Xin hurriedly opened the envelope and read it carefully several times, stupefied.

How could this be? Didn’t the court ignore her? She has always been defeated by the Yi people for so many years. Although it was a ghost made by Bai Xingzhi, the emperor did not reuse her again after his death. She once thought that she had been abandoned by the court, and it was only a matter of time before she stepped down. Everything was the emperor's last resort in order to remove the Bai family, she was so confused...

Confused to the point of being embarrassed with Deng Tianguan.

At this moment, Chang Xin's heart was already in a mess, and he didn't know what to do. Pei Yuanshu watched it clearly from the side, so he further contributed to the situation.

"Look at you, you are so excited that you can't speak. Okay, there are no outsiders here. I won't tell the emperor that you didn't kneel down to thank you."

"Brother Pei, I..." Chang Xin reacted, making him want to laugh a little by his funny remarks, but he couldn't get rid of worry, his face looked especially tangled.

"Okay, I won't tell you more. Take care of yourself. I will return to Jingzhou first."

Pei Yuanshu patted her on the shoulder and was about to leave, but she grabbed him reflexively and said, "What are you going to do in Jingzhou?"

"I am instructed to investigate the staff." Pei Yuanshu smiled, but his face was a little bleak, "I don't know when we will meet next time, I will rely on you to protect me."

Others would definitely not understand the deep meaning of his words, but Chang Xin understood it in an instant. She had heard Deng Tianguan say their real purpose for going there, and knew that Pei Yuanshu's ability would definitely be able to find out something. At that time, Deng Tianguan would definitely not let him go, and entering Jingzhou again would be a dead end!

She subconsciously stopped him.

"Don't go back, go directly to the capital!"

Pei Yuanshu smiled and said: "I'm all such an adult, and I still speak like a child. The prince is still waiting for me in Jinguan City. I didn't complete the task. You came first. If you go back late, you should be scolded. "

After he finished speaking, he opened his sleeves and was about to leave, and his hands were about to touch the tent, and a low voice suddenly came from behind: "Don't check it, Deng Tianguan will kill you!"

Pei Yuanshu stagnated, still turned his back to her, half of his face was buried under the thin fog, and he showed a heavy wry smile.

The fish in the pond, which one to choose to catch, and when to take the bait, the prince really scored the same...
