"If you give up your merits, you can protect your entire clan! Lord Ji, are you willing to give it a try?"

Mu Yunjiang finished the sentence word by word.

These days, Xiao Qiyu has been checking someone.

This person’s name is Chen Chen.

He is a junior officer in the Northern Armaments Department distributing ordnance.

Every time he went out to deliver goods, he would drive a carriage filled with weapons. He would count and sign the quantity shipped out of the warehouse.

The person who delivered the goods with him said: "Every time this person delivers goods, he will pass by a certain post station. Every time, he will go in and sit for a while, and he will invite us to eat and drink together. Usually he is very stingy, but on that day

, he will be very generous. Everyone can have a good meal."

Xiao Qiyu sent someone to investigate and found that the inn had an underground secret room, and there were one or two unmarked weapons in the secret room.

Therefore, he thought that those iron stones were sent through him - how exactly it was hidden from everyone's eyes, then you have to ask him himself.

Xiao Qiyu thought that he might not be the only one delivering iron and stone, because one or two carriages per month would not be enough to deliver iron and stone. Because everyone who delivers ordnance has

There are fixed routes, and these ordnance are only used to replace old weapons in the army, or weapons that are seriously worn. If a large number of weapons are distributed, people from the military camp will come to pick them up on their own.

He has found this man and captured him. At this moment, he is being interrogated in the Northern Armament Department.

The troublesome thing is: this person gritted his teeth and said nothing.

Finally, Xiao Qiyu found the man's old mother and asked his old mother to persuade him, and finally pried his mouth open.

Yan Wuhen had been accompanying King Jingbei and saw that the person behind the scenes was dug out. While he was shocked, he was extremely excited and shouted: "Your Highness, can this be used to testify against him?"

Xiao Qiyu shook his head, his face was extremely solemn: "It's useless to rely on just one witness... If this witness bites back, we will be the ones who die... We must get more concrete evidence. For example, that person ran away.

The place where the weapons are hidden can prove that all this has something to do with her, rather than us trying to frame him..."

"But how is this possible? There is no way that person would run to that kind of place anyway..." Yan Wuhen felt that this matter was as difficult as going to heaven.

Mu Yuntao was also present. Recently, he had been accompanying His Highness on errands and learned a lot. He also learned about many secrets in the court that might affect the fate of the family.

However, now, he has firmly decided to side with King Jingbei.

Hearing their discussion, he couldn't help but intervene: "He may not go, but there will definitely be someone close to him who will supervise. It would be great if that person could be caught."

But this can only be something to think about. Now that they don't know much about the situation, it's really difficult for them to take the initiative to reveal their lies.

At this moment, Ah Xu ran in from outside with excitement on his face, and shouted in surprise, "Your Highness, Your Highness, good news, good news, Mr. Jiang Qi is asking for a meeting... He's at the door of the Armaments Department."

When Xiao Qiyu heard this, his spirit was shaken and he hurried out to greet him.

At the gate, "Jiang Qi" wearing a black cotton cloak was standing next to the carriage, breathing heavily. It was really cold outside.

Xiao Qiyu saw him and greeted him with a smile: "Second brother, why are you here?"

"Come give you someone."

Mu Yunjiang drove a carriage over, and inside the carriage was a white-haired old man who had fainted.

Xiao Qiyu recognized it at a glance, and a look of surprise burst into his eyes. It was the metering officer who was said to have fallen into the river mouth and drowned, and was already mourning: Ji Pingchuan.

He cried out in surprise and joy: "How did you find him?"

"And, he has confessed, and this is his confession..."

She handed over the confession paper.

Xiao Qiyu hurriedly took it over.

Asuo immediately brought a lantern to illuminate His Highness.

Xiao Qiyu looked at it carefully, but frowned: "Actually, this is still not enough."

The foundation of the person they want to defeat is too deep. As long as he doesn't show his fox tail, no one will believe that he will rebel.

Mu Yunjiang's eyes flashed: "I have a plan here, but I can't stand up to one person... However, if I don't do this, once this person rebels, there will be many casualties among the people in the city... Sergeants

The peaceful days that I finally worked for will disappear, so I want to take a gamble..."

"Tell me and listen..."

Xiao Qiyu believed that his strategy must have been carefully thought out.

Mu Yunjiang whispered a few words in his ear.

Xiao Qiyu's eyes moved and his throat rolled, "This method is good, but... well... let's try it..."

A trace of unbearability flashed across his eyes.

Mu Yunjiang couldn't help but sigh softly: "I believe he is not that kind of person. But you won't know until you try it, what will he choose?"

Facing the night sky, Xiao Qiyu sighed deeply. Doing so was really cruel to him...

But this is already a dead end, he will have to face it no matter what...
