Chapter 394 Any comments?

Xiao Jinxuan walked into the yard and handed the fish basket to Xia Ju, asking her to stew it into fish soup.

Hearing the noise, Xie Zhuoning immediately came out of the house, "Did He Wenjun get captured?"

"Yes, the Feiyun Guards have taken care of him."

He hugged her into the house. It was early spring and it was still a little cold standing outside on the top of the mountain.

When Xie Zhuoning heard that he was just being kept under guard, he knew that He Wenjun was left alive.

Regardless of whether Ling Feng and the others succeed today, He Wenjun has to stay after he goes up the mountain.

If that fails, he will be the bargaining chip for them to negotiate with the Xichuan Army.

If that succeeds, then He Wenjun, as one of the culprits, will naturally not be allowed to get away. |

What to do next depends on the outcome of Ling Feng.

Fortunately, Ling Feng did not make them wait for long. Just after the 12:00 p.m., he and the Feiyun Guard who pretended to be He Wenjun returned to the Green Forest Alliance and presented what they had obtained.

A ledger recording the tax revenues over the years, and a dozen secret letters between Duke Zheng and Huo Wei.

With these things, it is enough to prove that Duke Zheng, Minister of War Huo Wei and He Wenjun have colluded with each other in recent years, deceived their superiors and subordinates, embezzled the court's funds, collected taxes privately, causing the national treasury to be empty and the people to starve to death. Their crimes are too numerous to list!

Xiao Jinxuan looked at the accounts and the contents of the secret letter until he was shaking all over and his eyes turned red with anger.

"How dare they, how dare they?!"

Do they treat the people of Xichuan as real people?

Xie Zhuoning felt heavy-hearted and couldn't describe the feeling in his heart.

No wonder her father in his previous life would rather choose the hypocritical Xiao Bicheng than Prince Yong, saying that he was a very sinister person.

Now it seems that he is not only evil, but he is also able to force all the common people to the mountains to become bandits, squeeze all their blood and flesh dry, and then give them to the Xichuan Army as military merit. It is difficult to describe his crimes even if we use the ten unforgivable crimes!

She asked softly, "Xiao Jinxuan, does our emperor know about these things you are talking about?"

If he didn't know, why did he order people to detain Huo Wei separately when he convicted him?

If he knew, then why did he turn a blind eye to these sufferings all these years?

In fact, Xiao Jinxuan didn’t know how to answer this question.

In the past, he would have chosen to believe his own brother.

Because he thought that Emperor Zhaowen was a wise ruler, he must have been deceived by a villain, so he didn't know what was happening here.

But now more and more things have surfaced, making Emperor Zhaowen's face more and more unfamiliar in his mind.

"Aning, the brother now seems to be a different person from the brother in my memory. Sometimes I can't tell which one is the real him."

Xie Zhuoning said secretly: Actually, it is all of them.

It’s just that Emperor Zhaowen died early in the previous life, and his true identity was not revealed yet.

In this life, A-Yu forcibly gave him another chance to live, allowing him to reveal his true character.

In fact, Xie Zhuoning sometimes felt very regretful. It was because of his effort to save Emperor Zhaowen's life that his plan against his father was advanced and almost caused a disaster. He also caused himself to be abducted by Ye Wuque and almost separated from Xiao Jinxuan forever.

But if you think about it carefully, this may not be a bad thing.

The plan was made in advance, but each link was not well arranged, so there were always loopholes. It was those loopholes that gave Xiao Jinxuan and his father room to maneuver and resolve the crisis.

And because Emperor Zhaowen had not died, Prince Yong and the Crown Prince were prevented from going to war, and it also gave her and Xiao Jinxuan time to prepare a plan.

"No matter whether His Majesty knew it before or not, he should know it now," Xie Zhuoning said meaningfully.

If Emperor Zhaowen continued to play dumb, the Xichuan Army would probably attack the capital.

Xiao Jinxuan also knew that this was not the time to think too much, so he immediately asked Ling Feng to take all the evidence to Nanyang.

"Remember, you must personally hand over all the things to the Marquis of Changxing, and have him send someone to deliver them to the capital overnight."

"yes."

"Also, send a message to Wen Yan and Ling Xiao, asking them to take their people and break up into small groups, disguise themselves and go up the mountain. I will send someone to meet them at the foot of the mountain."

"yes."

Ling Feng knew that the matter was of great importance, so he set off immediately for Nanyang without any hesitation.

Xiao Jinxuan could not show up for this matter because he had sneaked out of the capital.

Xie Zhuoning cannot show up either because she is dead.

The most appropriate person to do this is Song Lie, Marquis of Changxing.

In addition, Crown Prince Xiao Bicheng has always believed that Song Lie is his man, and will definitely help him in the capital, so that he can gain a firm foothold in the army with a great achievement.

In this way, the matter can go much more smoothly.

What they lack most now is time.

"Okay, don't think too much. Try the fish soup. I went fishing specially today." Xiao Jinxuan brought in the fish soup and served a bowl to Xie Zhuoning.

Xie Zhuoning took a sip and his eyes lit up, "Mm, so delicious!"

The fish from this mountain really has a unique flavor.

Seeing her smile, Xiao Jinxuan couldn't help but curl his lips, "If you like, I'll go fishing for you tomorrow."

Xie Zhuoning waved his hand and said, "That's not necessary. You should focus on your work."

Xiao Jinxuan said nonchalantly, "It's okay. I'm not late today, am I?"

Hearing this, Xie Zhuoning raised his eyebrows in surprise.

She originally thought that Xiao Jinxuan invited He Wenjun to go fishing in Tianchi Lake in the back mountain in order to create an image of a mysterious and profound hermit in order to delay the negotiations.

Could it be that he invited her to that place just because he wanted to make fish soup for her?

Well, there was indeed no delay.

She laughed dumbly and served him a bowl as well, "You drink too."

At midnight, Wen Yan also rushed to the Green Forest Alliance and first met Xiao Jinxuan and Xie Zhuoning.

"Your Highness Prince Xuan, Sister."

"Well," Xiao Jinxuan corrected him, "you should call him brother-in-law."

He knew that Wen Yan had been adopted as the son of Marquis Zhenyang and was included in the family tree.

Wen Yan was a little hesitant at first, but when he saw Xie Zhuoning nodded at him, he immediately changed his tone, "Brother-in-law!"

Even this small action did not escape Xiao Jinxuan's eyes.

He finally realized that Wen Yan only listened to his sister.

He looked up and asked, "How many people did you bring with you this time?"

Wen Yan answered truthfully, "Three hundred in total, all elite."

The army is on a forced march, and is heading to the Xichuan Army's territory. It is impossible to bring too many people here at once, otherwise they will be too conspicuous.

Xiao Jinxuan nodded, "Three hundred, that's enough."

He went to Zhongyi Hall and called the three heads of the hall to discuss the matter overnight.

The eldest boss was cursing, the second in command was thoughtful, and the third in command was timid, but they all arrived on time.

Xiao Jinxuan glanced at them and said directly, "Hand over the transfer order."

The Green Forest Alliance has tens of thousands of people, so naturally they have to be organized and disciplined like the army and need orders to be deployed. Otherwise, they will be a mess and there will be no way to manage them.

But the discipline is definitely not as strict as that of the military.

Hearing his request, the boss gritted his teeth and said, "This is too much!"

If they hand over the transfer order, what's the difference between the three of them and the other people in this village?

He stood up suddenly and wanted to overturn the table.

But it didn't move.

Xiao Jinxuan pressed the edge of the table with one finger, immobilizing him. "Any comments?"
