Chapter 506 Ah Shu can do whatever he wants
Speaking of this, Ji Yunlan's face looked very ugly, because Zhao Shen had already sent the defense map he got from the royal city to them through a message.
It’s actually true.
Those who had access to the defense map checked it one by one and found no problems with anyone.
He said in a cold voice, "According to what you said, that person has been with us for over ten years. Besides being a spy, he has also been with us through thick and thin, spending every day with us. How could such a person be found so easily?"
Zhao Shen also knew the difficulty of investigating a well-hidden spy. He considered for a moment and asked, "What about the families of those people? If you can't find any problems with the people you spend every day with, is it possible that the problem lies with their families?"
If it were in the past, Zhao Shen would not consider the problem from this perspective, but when he thought of Lu Ningshuang and Yao in the capital, he felt that this possibility was very high.
King Yong liked to use women very much. The more inconspicuous the woman was, the greater role she could play in his hands.
Ji Yunlan was also stunned for a moment: "Because the leaked map was the defense map, my father mainly checked the important people in the army. Their families were also checked, but they were not the focus. There were too many people, so it was impossible to check too much."
Zhao Shen nodded. "It's certainly not easy to find this person, but now that Prince Yong has taken action, we can't afford to take any chances. Ah Shu has been worried about the safety of you and your father-in-law these days, so the most urgent task is to find this person."
Ji Yunlan said, "I know. When I get back, I'll arrange for someone to continue investigating. Even if we have to dig three feet underground, we will definitely find that person."
He grew up in Youzhou and started practicing martial arts since he could remember. As soon as he could ride a horse, he started going to Champa. What he hated most were spies and detectives.
Not to mention that this person had been lurking in the army for ten years, and no one knew how much information he had sent out and how many soldiers had been killed.
Zhao Shen shook his head. "You and your father-in-law have done everything you should have done, but you still can't find the person. This means that the other party knows you very well. You may not get any results if you continue to investigate. My opinion is that I will investigate this matter. Anyway, Ah Shu and I will not leave Youzhou until this battle is over."
Ji Yunlan felt it was too dangerous, and he subconsciously wanted to refuse, asking Zhao Shen to take Ji Yunshu and leave Youzhou immediately and return to the capital.
But if you think about it carefully, Zhao Shen came here on the emperor's orders and he can't just leave whenever he wants.
As for Ji Yunshu, if Zhao Shen didn't leave, it would be even more impossible for her to go alone, and it would not be safe on the road.
Since I'm staying here anyway, it might be nice to help him find the spies in the army.
Zhao Shen's trip to Mobei seemed calm, but he actually got a lot done. It was not easy for him to find someone like Zhao Shen who was smart and reliable.
Now that this person is willing to come forward, it would be foolish for him to disagree.
So he nodded and said, "Then I'll trouble my brother-in-law."
Zhao Shen has already discovered that this uncle calls him brother-in-law when he has something to do, but doesn't bother to pay attention to him when he has nothing to do.
He said nothing more, but just walked on quietly.
This time they did not stop along the way and only arrived back at the General's Mansion in Wuning after dark.
When they arrived, Ji Changlin had not returned home yet.
Ji Yunlan explained to Ji Yunshu, "My father has been quite busy with military duties these past few days, so it's not uncommon for him to not be able to come back for a few days."
Ji Yunshu smiled and said, "Don't bother Dad if he's busy. I should be able to stay for a while this time. See you when you have time. Big brother is also tired today, go back and have a good rest."
Ji Yunlan used to think that his sister was a little spoiled and would complain that they didn’t come back to Beijing to see her.
But since getting married, he seems to have become more sensible.
Not only did he not complain after traveling all day, he was also considerate of him and his father.
Seeing that his sister had no reluctance at all and her face was full of concern for him, Ji Yunlan felt warm in his heart and didn't seem to feel tired even after a whole day's journey.
He said softly, "Let's have dinner together. I asked the housekeeper to arrange it before I left. There's your favorite mutton hotpot."
He still remembered that every time he left the capital as a child, his sister would hug him and cry for a long time.
At that time, he swore in his heart that he would protect his sister well.
Before they knew it, their younger sister had grown up and got married. It seemed like they hadn't sat down and had a good meal together for a long time.
Ji Yunshu was pleasantly surprised and said, "Brother is so kind! Mutton soup is perfect for such a cold day."
Seeing her so happy, Ji Yunlan also felt happy in his heart: "Then you must try it carefully. The mutton in Youzhou is better than the one in the capital."
When Ji Yunshu heard him say that, he immediately started planning hot pot and barbecue in his mind.
Anyway, there are still some days to go, so there is plenty of time to take turns eating.
There were not many people in total, so Ji Yunshu asked Qian Qian to stay and eat with them.
The two men at the table were not young anymore, and Qian Qian was still a girl in her teens, so there was no need to talk about gender differences.
Qian Qian was a little reserved at first. Although she knew that Zhao Shen was a good man, the image of him killing someone that night left such a deep impression on her that she still felt scared unconsciously.
So when he sat, he was the farthest away from Zhao Shen.
As for Ji Yunlan, he didn't feel any distance from her and even comforted Qian Qian a few words. Because he sympathized with Qian Qian for losing her family and had respect for General Qian, he treated Qian Qian as his sister in his heart.
Qian Qian felt his kindness and slowly relaxed.
Ji Yunshu took the opportunity to ask, "Is there really no woman in the barracks?"
Ji Yunlan didn't know what Ji Yunshu was planning yet, and thought she wanted to go to the military camp. He quickly said, "The military camp is full of men. It's inconvenient for women to go in and out, and it will easily attract gossip."
Ji Yunshu felt that he would die before achieving his goal. This was indeed a very realistic problem. Unless there were many women in the military camp, it would be too conspicuous to put a little girl in the camp.
She looked at Qian Qian and gave her a helpless look.
Qian Qian wanted to say something, but she was not familiar with Ji Yunlan yet. Since he had rejected Ji Yunshu, it was obviously impossible for him to make an exception for her.
She could only shake her head slightly at Ji Yunshu.
She just arrived, so it's not appropriate to talk about this now. It's better to wait a few days before making tent plans.
Ji Yunshu also felt that she was a little anxious, mainly because the atmosphere was good tonight, and she thought it was okay to casually ask her brother if he agreed.
But she still complained dissatisfiedly, "I thought only those bored aunts and uncles liked to gossip. Aren't there only men in the barracks? From the sound of your voice, you're not good at fighting, but you're very good at gossiping."
Ji Yunlan: "You can tell me what you want to do. Not only me, but even my brother-in-law would be worried if a girl goes to the military camp."
As he spoke, he turned to look at Zhao Shen, "Right, brother-in-law?"
Although Zhao Shen had never heard Ji Yunshu say that she wanted Qian Qian to join the military camp, the flirtations between the two girls did not escape his notice.
So he said naturally: "Ashu can do whatever he wants, I have no objection."
