"It's really crazy..."
There was no evidence, so Li Yingfeng naturally didn't believe Su Li's words easily.
Su Li was not in a hurry. This was a good opportunity for Prince Chun to overthrow Prince Ning. Regardless of whether it was true or not, Li Yingfeng would definitely send people to Xishan to investigate. By then, the truth would be known.
Su Li continued, "General, as far as I know, the Xishan Mine may be fully mined in less than two months..."
In the original book, it would take another five months to complete the harvest, but in order to make Li Yingfeng speed up, she changed the time at will.
It’s not illegal if I say something wrong, right?
And who can be sure how long it will take to mine all the gold?
Li Yingfeng nodded: "I will have someone investigate this matter as soon as possible..."
"General, if you need it, I can provide you with defenses in the mountains."
Li Yingfeng was a little surprised: "You know?"
Su Li nodded: "I have been in the mountains for more than half a year, and I have basically figured this matter out."
Li Yingfeng immediately waved to someone to prepare pen and ink.
Su Li didn't know how to draw the defense map of this era, so she was responsible for saying that Li Yingfeng's deputy general would be responsible for drawing it.
Half an hour later, Lieutenant General Luo finished drawing the map. After reviewing it, Li Yingyingfeng asked doubtfully, "With such a layout, how did Miss Mo escape?"
Su Li did not hide anything and told Li Yingfeng everything about how he hid in Xiao Shaoxing's carriage and escaped. He then told Li Yingfeng what he had to say to the coachman.
Li Yingfeng and Deputy General Luo were amazed. Li Yingfeng praised her, "Such patience, attentiveness, and courage. Miss Mo is truly as capable as any man. I admire her!"
Lieutenant General Luo also nodded in agreement. Indeed, Miss Mo was very thorough in her work, considering even such meticulous matters as instructing the groom.
Su Li even said he didn't dare: "General, you are too kind..."
He reminded me again, "General, if the people at the Xishan Mine find out I'm missing, they might become suspicious and find out I came here. I'm afraid that then..."
After all, all those who had attempted to escape were caught back without exception.
Li Yuzhi is cautious by nature. If he sends people to chase her to the east and cannot find her, it is possible that the other party will be afraid that the illegal gold mining will be exposed, so he will kill her in advance to silence her, or abandon the remaining gold mine and leave.
She didn't really care about abandoning the mine, but she was mainly afraid that she wouldn't be able to save A Xiu and the others.
Of course, it is also possible that Li Yuzhi did not take her running away seriously and just thought she was simply running away and would not do anything about it.
Li Yingfeng nodded and said, "Don't worry, Miss Mo. I'll send someone to the Xishan Mine immediately... I'm afraid there will be things that may require your help later. Miss Mo, you..."
"General, rest assured, I won't leave until things are dealt with."
As a whistleblower, there is no reason to just walk away before the matter is resolved.
Besides, she also wanted to confirm with her own eyes that A Xiu and the others had left safely before she could feel at ease.
"By the way, Miss Mo, I don't know where you are from?"
"My home is on the eastern border..."
Su Li repeated the same excuse he had given at the Xishan Mine.
Li Yingfeng and Deputy General Luo also sighed. As border guards, they could best understand the suffering of the people living on the border. "Miss Mo, please accept my condolences..."
He added, "Since Miss Mo has no place to live in Pingjin, the General's Mansion doesn't have much else, but it has the most rooms. If you don't mind, you can move in."
Su Li agreed very happily.
She really had no place to live in Pingjin, and she didn't have much money, so she was afraid that her budget would not be enough to stay in an inn.
Anyway, I have to wait for Li Yingfeng to deal with the Xishan mine matter, so I might as well live in the general's mansion. It is convenient and saves money.
Li Yingfeng immediately sent a carrier pigeon message to Prince Chun in the capital to report the matter.
A reconnaissance team was immediately formed and rushed to Xishan day and night to investigate the situation.
