"He must be a traveling merchant. There are many foreigners coming to the capital to do business..." Lu Qingyun said with a frown.
But he knew Han Xiao's character. If Han Xiao hadn't discovered something, he would never have told him about this.
Is there something wrong with that group of Beidi caravans?
He looked at Han Xiao with questioning eyes, but Han Xiao just nodded calmly.
Now is not the time to talk. Han Xiao sighed and stretched. "Let's talk about it when we get back. Then call General Huo and ask him."
General Huo has been fighting with the Northern Di for so many years, so there should be spies in the Northern Di. Having accurate information is much better than their blind guesses here.
Lu Qingyun felt that what Han Xiao said made sense, so he didn't ask any more questions. However, he was cautious and planned to ask his father to investigate the foreign merchant caravans that had recently been traveling to the capital after he returned.
Now that the world is finally peaceful and people are living and working in peace, we must stop causing trouble.
Walking on the repaired cement road, Lu Qingyun was amazed. He knew that cement roads were stable and solid, but he didn't expect that the journey would be so smooth.
Han Xiao is truly a talented person.
After sending Lu Qingyun to the Lu family, Han Xiao did not stay for long and returned to his home with the reluctant young master.
The two of them have been chatting all the way and haven't finished yet.
Seeing the young master's unhappy expression, Han Xiao coaxed him softly, "Qingyun and the others have been traveling for several days. They should have a good rest first. Let's go see them tomorrow, okay?"
Although the young master was still a little unhappy, he also felt that what Han Xiao said made sense: "Okay, then I'll ask Sister Xinyan to come this time."
Having stood up Huo Xinyan today, Han Xiao felt a little guilty and agreed immediately.
To Han Xiao, Huo Xinyan was like a love rival. If it weren't for the fact that women and young men couldn't get married, Han Xiao would have thought that Huo Xinyan was trying to steal his girl.
Lu Qingyun must also feel the pain of having his wife taken away by a woman. Good brothers should share the hardships.
The next morning, Huo Xinyan came to the Han family. After the young master knew about it, he didn't even have breakfast properly and ran to the living room to find Huo Xinyan.
Han Xiao was left alone changing the baby's diaper.
Xiaobai was circling around Han Xiao's feet. Han Que had been in the military camp recently and had not returned, so there was no one to play with Xiaobai. So Han's mother sent Xiaobai over to Xiao Chaochao to play with him.
Xiaobai has only seen Xiao Chaochao a few times since he was born.
Now Xiaobai is like Chaochao's loyal guard, always staying by Chaochao's side. Sometimes the wet nurse is scared when she comes to feed him.
After changing Chao Chao's diaper, Han Xiao rubbed Xiao Bai's big head and said, "Let's go. Remember to scare that woman Huo Xinyan in the front hall."
Xiaobai growled in agreement. It was no longer the cotton ball it used to be. It was more than enough to scare a woman.
But Han Xiao forgot that Huo Xinyan had also seen Xiaobai, and Xiaobai had even suffered a lot at the hands of Huo Xinyan.
So when Xiaobai saw Huo Xinyan, he walked away with his tail between his legs, and Han Xiao cursed him inwardly for being useless.
As if knowing Han Xiao's accusation, Xiaobai pushed Han Xiao forward two steps, meaning "If you can do it, go ahead."
This woman Huo Xinyan is even scarier than a tigress.
Seeing Han Xiao carrying the child in, with Xiaobai following behind, Huo Xinyan smiled gently and said, "Xiaobai has grown so big."
As he said this, he rubbed Xiaobai's elastic ears. Xiaobai's whole body became stiff and he dared not move.
But Huo Xinyan quickly let Xiaobai go and turned to look at Han Xiao: "My father is not here today, if you have anything to say, you can tell me..."
"General Huo, what have you been busy with recently?" Han Xiao sat down holding Chao Chao, and the young master came over when he saw him.
"It's about the arsenal. The first batch of claw blades has been produced, and my father is testing the quality."
It was this matter. Han Xiao almost forgot that the claw blade was a melee weapon. One had to keep something in reserve on the battlefield. It might have unexpected effects.
"So that's how it is. I came to see General Huo just to ask a few questions. If you know anything, I'd be happy to tell you."
Han Xiao took a sip of water, paused for a moment, and continued, "Yesterday I encountered a Beidi caravan outside the city..."
As he spoke, Han Xiao asked Xing Yi to bring up the dagger that General Huo had sent him.
"General Huo, do you still remember this dagger?"
Huo Xinyan picked up the dagger and nodded. This was the trophy her father seized from the Beidi royal family.
The patterns and gems on it are extremely rare, so I took them out and gave them to the young master as a toy.
"The group of Northern Di people I saw outside the city yesterday also had daggers like this. If I'm not mistaken, this person should also be a member of the Northern Di royal family..."
Han Xiao told Huo Xinyan about the appearance and clothing of the group of foreigners he met yesterday.
Huo Xinyan's expression was solemn. She didn't know the purpose of the Beidi royal family coming to the capital this time.
Could it be that someone in the court was colluding with them? What kind of person could have the Northern Di royal family come here in person?
Now Huo Xinyan had no other thoughts. Her intuition told her that something might have happened within the Beidi royal family, and she had to discuss this matter with General Huo as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, Huo Xinyan raised his head and looked at Han Xiao seriously: "Thank you for the information, Mr. Han. This news is of great importance to us. Please don't reveal any of it to anyone."
Han Xiao pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, I understand. I hope General Huo can find out the truth as soon as possible. I think their purpose for coming this time is not simple."
I don’t know who they are targeting. Now the three princes are in a three-way stalemate. Any force joining in will bring a considerable impact to Chu Jinglin and others.
But I have told Lu Qingyun that it should be okay.
Huo Xinyan shook his head. General Huo was on Chu Jinglin's side, so it was okay for him to know about it.
"That's good. Let's wait for Qingyun to come. How about you two talk about it?" Maybe there will be unexpected gains.
Huo Xinyan shook his head: "No, this is a serious matter, I'd better go back first."
We need to arrange for someone to investigate as soon as possible to find out what the purpose of these Northern Di people is.
Han Xiao nodded and didn't persuade him any further. The young master came over and took Huo Xinyan's hand, saying reluctantly, "An Lan will be here soon. Can't you wait a little longer?"
Huo Xinyan and Liu Anlan are both the young master's close friends, and he wants them to meet so that the three of them can become best friends.
Huo Xinyan rubbed the young master's hair, which felt very nice to the touch. "It's okay, you can bring him to the barracks to see me. But I may be busy recently, so don't be lazy, Ruanruan."
The young master felt that he was being looked down upon, and immediately put his hands on his hips and said in a sweet voice: "I wouldn't do that, Sister Xinyan, please don't look down on me!"
