Chapter 1097 Little Prince Xiao’s Finger Wrap (9)
"Deep in the canyon is where the silver mine is."
Ye Yueying brought Xiao Moxi and Wu Yutang to the mouth of the canyon.
Wu Yutang looked at the guards stationed at the entrance of the canyon: "There are too many people. I don't know how many people there are in the silver mine. I'm afraid we won't be able to handle it alone."
Xiao Moxi thought for a while and looked at Ye Yueying: "This matter needs to be considered in the long run. If you show up rashly, you will scare the snake. If you don't get it right, Ren Feng will flee."
Ye Yueying understood this, but she was worried about the cold wind.
Xiao Moxi saw her worry and comforted her: "Your uncle is good at martial arts and won't be caught so easily. We will find a way to rescue people as soon as possible, but we have to return to Haqi City now."
Although they are cooperating, the decision-making power is now in the hands of Xiao Moxi. Although Ye Yueying wants to save people immediately, she also knows that there are only three of them now and they can't save anyone at all, so she can only follow them back to the city.
Immediately, the three people left the canyon.
On the way back, Xiao Moxi showed Ye Yueying the token collected from the barbarians with the attitude of giving it a try: "Do you know this kind of token?"
Ye Yueying nodded: "Yes, this is a voucher specially made by Ren Feng to trade with barbarians. Any barbarian holding this token can take away thousands of stones of high-yielding grains at once."
Hearing this, Xiao Moxi and Wu Yutang darkened their faces at the same time.
Wu Yutang said angrily: "This bastard! In order to ensure that the soldiers do not go hungry, the court allocates high-yielding grains to border areas first every year, so that in many places the allocation is small or not available at all. It would be better for him.
, actually used precious grains to support the enemy. This is clearly treason and collaboration with the enemy!"
Although Xiao Moxi didn't say anything, she had already decided in her heart that after returning to the city, she would immediately send someone to the military camp to investigate the matter.
......
When the three returned to the city, they obviously found that there were more officers and soldiers at the city gate. They could leave the city before, but now they can only enter the city.
Xiao Moxi looked at Ye Yueying: "We rented a small courtyard, you can come with us. People are being arrested everywhere in the city, so it would be safer to follow us. Besides, if we decide to explore the other side of the canyon, that's fine.
We will inform you in time."
Ye Yueying did not agree immediately. She cooperated with Xiao Moxi in order to save Uncle Leng. Now she has informed the other party of what Ren Feng has committed. They will part ways as soon as Uncle Leng is rescued.
If she agrees to live with them, these people will definitely investigate her, and her identity will no longer be concealed.
Once her identity is exposed, it would be a good thing that she finally brought down the Ren family. If not, then she would be in big trouble, and the Ren family might even take revenge on her grandfather's family.
Xiao Moxi saw Ye Yueying's hesitation and smiled: "Brother Ye, since you and I have chosen to cooperate, shouldn't there be some minimum trust between us?"
Ye Yueying looked at him: "If I didn't believe you, I wouldn't have taken you to the canyon, and I wouldn't have told you about Ren Feng stealing and selling grain."
"In this case, what are you worried about?" Xiao Moxi looked at Ye Yueying seriously.
Xiao Moxi's eyes were so bright that Ye Yueying didn't want to look at him, her eyes avoided and said: "I'm afraid of disturbing you."
Xiao Moxi laughed: "This is not necessary. We often go out on business and are used to it. There is nothing to disturb."
Ye Yueying is a little speechless. You don't mind, I do. Who wants to live in a courtyard with a group of men?
However, the officers and soldiers in the city searched too closely. In the end, Ye Yueying had to compromise and followed Xiao Moxi to the small courtyard where they were staying temporarily.
......
The other Jin Ling Guards were a little surprised when they saw Xiao Moxi and Wu Yutang bringing back an outsider. They looked at it curiously for a while, and then went about their business.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, Ye Yueying couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Xiao Moxi arranged for Ye Yueying to stay in an empty room, and then summoned all her subordinates to discuss investigating Ren Feng.
Ren Feng is the commander of the provincial capital. Although Ye Yueying's story about the canyon silver mine and the theft and selling of grain seeds is conclusive, they must find conclusive evidence before taking the person.
In the next two days, Ye Yueying found that apart from her, there seemed to be only two women cooking in the small courtyard. The others, including Xiao Moxi and Wu Yutang, were nowhere to be seen.
Ye Yueying knew that Xiao Moxi and the others must be busy investigating Ren Feng, and also knew that this was their case handling process, but she still couldn't help but feel anxious.
She was afraid that if the time dragged on for too long, the cold wind would be dangerous.
Although the two guards who reported the news were killed by her, if the silver mine did not wait for Ren Feng's order for a long time, they would definitely send someone to the city to inform Ren Feng. If Ren Feng really sent experts there, Uncle Leng would
It’s dangerous.
At this moment, Ye Yueying was enveloped in a sense of powerlessness, just like when she learned that her family had passed away, she was also unable to do anything.
Late at night, when Xiao Moxi came back from outside, she saw Ye Yueying sitting on the roof looking at the moon, with a thin halo of loneliness covering her whole body.
Just when Ye Yueying was thinking that if Xiao Moxi and others did not make a decision, she would go deep into the canyon alone, the alluring aroma of meat floated into the tip of her nose.
When I turned around, I saw Xiao Moxi sitting next to me with a smile.
"I just saw that there was still a charcoal fire in the kitchen, so I grilled some barbecue. Let's try it." After saying that, Xiao Moxi picked up a skewer of barbecue and ate it.
Seeing that Ye Yueying was still, he smiled and handed her a bunch: "You know my craftsmanship. If you miss this village, there will be no such shop. Usually my brothers can't eat it if they want. You are in luck."
Ye Yueying glanced at him and took the skewers.
Seeing her frown, Xiao Moxi knew the worry in her heart and said: "Don't worry, your uncle is safe for the time being. These days, Ren Feng is busy dealing with the funerals of his brother and son, and has to appease his family members, so he doesn't have the energy.
To take care of things at the silver mine."
Ye Yueying looked at him: "How is your investigation going?"
Xiao Moxi's eyes flashed with concern. The results they found were more serious than Ye Yueying said, but it was difficult to tell the public. They just said: "Give us some more time."
"Ren Feng is the commander-in-chief of Liaodong after all. In addition to his own power, there are also Hu people who are eyeing him. Some things must be considered carefully, otherwise it will cause turmoil in Liaodong."
Ye Yueying also knew that Ren Feng was closely involved, so she didn't say anything more.
Xiao Moxi handed Ye Yueying another skewer of barbecue: "Eat it quickly, it won't taste good when it's cold."
Ye Yueying suddenly raised her eyebrows and looked at Xiao Moxi: "Are you so kind to everyone?" When you came back late at night, you came to comfort her and give her food.
Xiao Moxi was stunned for a moment, then smiled and boasted: "I have two very noisy younger brothers and sisters at home. I have developed the habit of taking care of others since I was a child."
Ye Yueying: "Really? You are so good at taking care of others, so you should be very popular with girls, but being your wife will be very tiring."
Uh...
Does this mean that he likes to be merciful?
Xiao Moxi was stunned, no, when did he have a wife?
"No, why is it so tiring to be my wife? Am I the kind of person who has no sense of boundaries?"
Ye Yueying gave him a 'you are it' look, and then jumped off the roof.
