Kang Nan on this side was thinking about how to transfer the Iron Cavalry Army, but he didn't expect that Qin Xuezhen relied on her luck as the heroine to find his Iron Cavalry Army.
After Mu Chan learned from Yao Guangyue that Qin Xue was the key to breaking the deadlock, he sent people to keep an eye on her. After finding the account book, he kept an even closer eye on her.
Sure enough, they soon learned the whereabouts of the Iron Cavalry from her.
In order to inform the eldest prince of this news as soon as possible, Mu Chan lied that he had received another dream from Qilin.
This made the eldest prince very jealous.
"It's strange, why does this Qilin always appear in your dreams but never in my dreams?"
In fact, what the eldest prince really wanted to say was why his younger sister was so close to her maternal grandparents. Could it be that she was still worried about her royal brothers?
"Don't mind it, Your Highness. Perhaps Little Qilin feels that something is not right and wants to trouble Your Highness."
This didn't sound true, but the eldest prince was too lazy to argue with him.
"Never mind, now that you know the whereabouts of the Iron Cavalry, do you know how many men they have?"
Mu Chan looked at the eldest prince and found that he was not uneducated. He still knew how to think at critical moments.
"I don't know how many there are at the moment, but I do know their weapons are excellent. Is Your Highness willing to go with me to take a look?"
The eldest prince nodded. It was definitely not a good idea to confront these cavalry troops head-on at the moment.
But we can't just sit and wait for rescue. We should find out more before that.
"Let's go and take a look, but we have to find a way to avoid Conan."
"So I came to see the eldest prince. Please ask him to go to the mine again!"
The eldest prince's eyes widened. Last time, he asked him to lead Kangnan to climb the mountain, but why was it him again this time? Poor thing, his leg had just healed not long ago, and he had to suffer again!
"Why is it always me? Can't you go?"
"I can go, but General Kangnan and I are colleagues, so I'm afraid they won't take it seriously. If he runs away, I can't guarantee that the Crown Prince will be able to return alive."
This was not meant to scare the eldest prince, and he knew it well.
If Kang Nan sneaked back halfway and found that he was not at home, he would probably go to find the Iron Cavalry first.
If you happen to encounter one at that time, who knows if that person will be desperate and kill you directly to protect his own safety?
"Since that's the case, then I have no choice but to go. However, I have to find a reason to scare him this time."
The eldest prince was not stupid. He thought that his first trip to the mine was for inspection, but going for the second time might arouse suspicion, so he arranged a big show in advance.
He asked General Kangnan to patrol the market, and happened to meet a man who came to complain, claiming that his relatives went to the mine to mine, but were killed by falling rocks in the mine, but they did not receive any pension.
In this case, Conan was also confused. He had never touched any pension money. He was just afraid that someone would make trouble and worry about losing more than he gained.
If he hadn't touched it, then who had touched the pension? He had already issued an order that the local people and the people working in the mines must not be embarrassed.
Could it be that someone didn't obey his orders?
At this moment, Kang Nan couldn't help but feel annoyed in his heart. It seemed that he was too lenient to those people in his daily life.
The eldest prince displayed his royal dignity and questioned Kang Nan in a cold tone.
"General Kangnan, do you know anything about the pension?"
His eyebrows seemed to jump, and he quickly knelt before the eldest prince and argued, "Your Highness, I have absolutely never oppressed the people, nor have I ever treated the miners harshly. I really don't know about the pension."
The eldest prince almost couldn't hold back his laughter. This was basically a trap set by him. Look how scared this guy was.
However, the eldest prince was quite good at acting. He put on a stern face and snorted coldly.
"Humph! Since we don't know why, someone is here to report it? General Kangnan, could it be that in your eyes, the imperial concubine is a member of the royal family, so this king cannot... The imperial concubine has never heard of such a thing at this time. It seems that she has covered it up very well!"
Kang Nan had put so much effort into earning his current fortune, and he was about to finish it all, but this time he failed in the inspection. How could he accept this?
"Your Highness, I truly do not know about this matter. If you are in trouble, we can go to the mines to investigate. No matter what the results are, I will gladly accept them."
Since he had proposed it himself, the eldest prince was of course satisfied and immediately took his men to the mine.
On the other side, Mu Chan discovered that Kang Nan seemed to have noticed something recently and wanted to transfer the Iron Cavalry, and sent a large number of people to help them transport weapons and armor.
So he took his men and traveled light, mixed in with the crowd, and helped transport things.
During the transportation process, not only the quantity of these weapons was learned, but also the number of these cavalry troops.
What’s even more terrible is that he found the flag of the Chixiao Kingdom among these cavalry.
With these things, it would be impossible to deny that he had surrendered to the enemy and committed treason in Kangnan.
Things are going smoothly here, but not so smoothly on the other side. The eldest prince's fundamental purpose in finding that person is to go to the mine.
Therefore, there is no such thing as pension being embezzled. Now they are at the mine, and after checking the accounts from multiple parties, the eldest prince can be said to have lost an adult.
But Conan was extremely happy. After this incident, they felt more at ease with him.
"Your Highness, have you seen this? Wei Cheng's men would never embezzle the pension. After multiple verifications, there is absolutely no problem. In my humble opinion, this person is clearly greedy and wants to extort money."
The eldest prince felt ashamed. This was not extortion but a trick. What should he do now?
"Forget it. These people are just greedy for money. Now that the matter has been investigated, in my opinion, let's just let it go."
Now Kang Nan is getting a bit relentless. You made me climb the mine again, and now you want to let it go? It’s not that easy.
So he knelt down in front of the eldest prince with a solemn look, begging him to deal with the matter seriously.
"Your Highness, this matter cannot be let go lightly. All the leaders, big and small, have been wronged because of him throwing this mine. If we just let it go, the people below will be dissatisfied!"
As soon as these words were spoken, several people knelt on the ground, their faces filled with indignation.
The first person who came to file a complaint was trembling with fear, and looked up at the eldest prince with pleading eyes.
He looked anxious and was about to speak.
That was true. He was just a person hired by the eldest prince. Someone in his family did die in the mine, but the pension was not reduced at all.
A nobleman from the capital came out of nowhere and asked him to frame the local General Kangnan. He came here because he was greedy for money and didn't want to lose his life here.
