Yan Shiyue didn’t have so many thoughts.
She led the fifth prince out and asked casually, "What are you doing in the palace?"
The fifth prince coughed and said, "Study."
Hmm? Yan Shiyue suddenly felt that this little fifth brother was also quite pitiful: "Fortunately, I have never learned anything."
The two men went straight over and interrogated Xie Huzi.
It didn't take much effort to just ask.
Xie Huzi was indeed bribed. He had been a bandit in Suizhou and had never been to Maozhou.
Yan Shiyue felt that Lin Fujian was a very scheming person. Xie Huzi's previous confession was not false. In other words, Lin Fujian had set up this scheme half a year ago and would use it at the appropriate time.
And the most important thing is that he used Xie Huzi, which shows that he had no one who was actually involved in the incident, but he was able to make things go well. At least even Prince Yu himself did not raise any objections, which was also very impressive.
She had no doubt about this kind of person. Although he was so kind to her now, he must be secretly thinking of ways to deal with her, never forgetting, and then when the opportunity arose, he would strike her with one blow!
...
...
Tsk, how scary!
Even Prince Yu himself did not expect such a reversal.
Prince Yu felt refreshed for a moment.
But Lin Fujian did keep his composure. Even when Prince Yu said something to his face, he could still smile and answer, "It shows that the prince is indeed blessed."
Prince Yu punched the cotton with his fist, feeling very unhappy. He sneered privately: "I didn't expect that our Prime Minister is a true gentleman, Yan Qingtian!"
He chuckled, "A true gentleman is good! A true gentleman is the best. Even if you slap her or even kill her mother, she won't even retaliate, and will even reason with you... Such a true gentleman is really good! How worry-free is this king?"
The more Prince Yu thought about it, the more proud he became, and he couldn't help but laugh out loud.
It was at this time that Yan Shiyue transferred the clearing records from the military.
Maozhou is mountainous, and at that time it was the imperial court's Shenwu Army that suppressed the bandits, but afterwards, it was the soldiers of Maozhou Zhechongfu who came to suppress the bandits.
What puzzled her was that at that time, Tianbao Mountain had been cleared out many times, and there were always people reporting that there were bandits, but they could never find any of them.
The prince had already left, so she stayed in the palace next to the prince, very close to the meeting hall. Emperor Ming Yan sent someone to invite her to dinner, but she refused to go. She was just looking at the files with a deep hatred when Emperor Ming Yan came in.
The fifth prince stood up and saluted. Emperor Mingyan nodded and said, "I have told you so many times, but you just won't listen! You won't eat when you are busy!"
Yan Shiyue said, "I'll eat in a minute!"
Emperor Mingyan sat down next to him. The fifth prince personally poured tea for him. Emperor Mingyan asked, "Didn't you say that person was fake?"
Yan Shiyue said seriously: "The person is fake, but the thing is real."
Emperor Mingyan said helplessly: "Do we have to find out?"
"Yes! You have to finish what you have started!" She said halfway and looked at Emperor Ming Yan again: "Can't we check it?"
Emperor Ming Yan actually laughed: "I said we can't investigate, so you won't investigate?"
She said seriously, "Yes."
Emperor Ming Yan laughed and patted her on the back: "Check it out."
The noble families are too arrogant and powerful, and they still want to influence the court until now. They really don't understand the situation. It's a good thing to suppress them. If Prince Yu falls, Guangcheng Bo is too ruthless and lacks wisdom, and the noble families will suffer a heavy blow.
His little girl is indeed a blessed person. She always goes with the flow, but always does things just right.
Emperor Ming Yan was just about to say that he wanted to eat first when he saw her suddenly sit up straight and said seriously, "Aye, I want to go to Maozhou!"
Emperor Mingyan raised his eyebrows: "Why?"
Yan Shiyue said: "I think there is something wrong with this Tianbao Mountain!! I have a feeling that this trip will definitely yield something!"
Emperor Ming Yan hesitated for a moment.
Maozhou is not far from here, and precisely because it is not far away, if there is a real problem, it should be resolved as soon as possible.
Emperor Mingyan said, "Yes, Ah Jing cannot go. I will ask Prince Chun to bring people to protect you. When you arrive at the place, I will dispatch the army of Maozhou Prefecture."
"What?" Yan Shiyue's eyes widened. "Is it the Prince Chun that I know? I have a grudge against his wife. If you ask him to go, what if he tries to harm me?"
Emperor Mingyan was both angry and amused, and slapped her in the face: "What are you thinking! Even if I ask Prince Yu to go, he won't dare to do anything! If you make the slightest mistake, I will kill his entire family!"
All right, she agreed, and when she saw the Fifth Prince, she said, "I'll take Little Fifth Brother with me."
Emperor Mingyan glanced at the fifth prince and said, "Yes."
So the matter was settled in a few words.
Yan Shiyue asked the Fifth Prince to help pack up the materials, and asked Yiye to go back and tell Weixin and the others to prepare, and then she went to find Huo Qijing with her hands behind her back.
Upon hearing this, Huo Qijing frowned deeply.
However, he was responsible for guarding the palace and could not leave without permission, so he said, "I will give you my soldiers. I will also give you Zhao Kuangyin. That boy has some talents and may be useful."
Yan Shiyue nodded.
Huo Qijing added: "I still have too few people around me. Now that Mobei has surrendered, almost all the people over there can be withdrawn. I will ask Wei Liao and the others to come to the capital."
She nodded again.
Huo Qijing patted her head gently: "Be careful, let others take care of things, don't mess around."
"Don't worry!" Yan Shiyue whispered, "This time it was Prince Chun who protected me, so of course I let him go first!"
Huo Qijing smiled: "Okay, let's do this from now on."
The two of them were standing by the door talking, one was tall and majestic, the other was delicate and sweet, they were extremely pleasing to the eyes.
Someone couldn't help but say, "The little prince is so good-looking! He doesn't look fierce at all."
Another person said: "I think you want to die! How dare you say such a thing!"
"What's the big deal!" the man said, "I still dare to shout it out, the young prince will not blame me."
Someone else laughed and said, "Just try to shout! If you dare to shout, I'll give you a gold ingot."
"Really?" That man was also quite reckless, and he immediately shouted, "Your Highness! You are so handsome!" They both tilted their heads, and he continued, "You are a perfect match for our general!"
Yan Shiyue smiled.
Both she and Huo Qijing are more tolerant in this regard.
In the military camp, a bunch of rough guys get together. Who wouldn't make a fuss when their wife comes? If they dare to make a fuss, it means you have already blended in.
Huo Qijing pointed at him from a distance, and then the two of them said a few more words before Yan Shiyue turned and ran away.
Huo Qijing walked back and people around him started to tease him, but he just smiled.
Early the next morning, the group left the palace.
The news was kept secret, and two days later, when people saw that Yan Shiyue was not there, they gradually realized something was wrong, and after asking around, they found out.
Upon hearing this, Prince Yu was so angry that he almost vomited blood. "She traveled all the way to Maozhou just to solve a case like this? Did she take the wrong medicine? Does she really want to kill me?"
Lin Fujian smiled and said, "I was right about her. She is not someone I will give up on so easily. In fact, it is very useful to understand her temper... I just need to control her well. Whoever I tell her to bite, she will bite to death!"
