Chapter 669 Secret Talk Outside the City
Xiao Yucheng told Zheng Wei that Yang Jing wanted to see Zheng Heng, and Zheng Wei thought of the pile of things that Yang Jing sent during the day, and felt that if the man of the Yang family really noticed something, he would not go to the market to buy those small things in person again. Things, please send them here again.

Zheng Wei pointed to the two gadgets still placed on the table, and said with a smile: "Yang Jing is not the kind of person who can hide his thoughts, brother can go to see him, but you have to figure out how to deal with it."

Xiao Yucheng persuaded him, "I will take care of your elder brother, but you have to find a way to leave the governor's mansion, so that if there is an accident, we will not have any worries!"

But Zheng Wei didn't want to leave, she still wanted to find out the identity of the person behind the scenes.

But Xiao Yucheng insisted very much, Zheng Wei had no choice but to agree.

The next day, after Yang Jing went out, Zheng Wei took Chunran to bid farewell to Mrs. Yang. Yang Zongzhou heard that the chief of Danyang County had left, so he came to the backyard on a rare occasion, and took the initiative to test, "The princess's trip to the west this time is not to monitor a case, but this time Has the case been settled?"

Zheng Wei was taken aback for a moment, if she hadn't met Wei Liu, she would have almost forgotten that there was such an imperial errand on this tour.She never thought that he still remembered and mentioned it on his own initiative. This may be a guilty temptation!

Zheng Wei lowered his eyes uncomfortably, and said hesitantly: "The princess sent Liu Xiang to Qingling County to investigate the case a few days ago, and I heard that the plaintiff in the case could not be found, so the case will be closed. I will wait It's futile here too, I should go back and report to His Majesty after I've been out for a long time!"

"So it is!" Yang Zongzhou 'suddenly realized', and enthusiastically said: "The princess might as well stay one more day, and I will hold a banquet for the princess to practice!"

"I heard from Caiyi that there is a lack of clothing and food in the city these days, and the governor has already reduced the expenses of the mansion for the sake of the people, so you must not do extravagant things just for me!" Zheng Wei hurriedly stopped, and imitated Chunran's teaching Yes, Yang Zongzhou couldn't refute what he said.

Zheng Wei and his party finally left the city smoothly in the afternoon. The guards of honor of the princesses outside the city were already waiting in order. After saying goodbye to the adults in Hongdu, the guards of honor walked leisurely. Just reach the next city before dark.

On the way back to the city, the lord in a green robe who was following Yang Zongzhou suddenly said, "Wouldn't it be faster to go by water from outside the city? Why does the princess insist on taking the official route!"

Yang Zongzhou's footsteps paused when he heard that, and someone else replied at this time: "Perhaps it was the battle a few days ago, and the waterway has been uneven since then. I'm afraid it's for the sake of safety along the way!"

Yang Zongzhou got on the carriage back to the city calmly, so he didn't see a few civilians leading their mules out of the city in a hurry.

"Why did Princess Danyang leave suddenly? Didn't he still say that he would help us before? That important person hasn't come yet." Liu Jingming didn't finish speaking, but was pulled by Shen Shaohan. He also saw the frame coming in front, and instantly He lowered his head, and the followers behind understood, immediately blocked them inside, and quickly left the city gate.

"It seems that the princess has just left. Didn't we send a letter to Liu Xiang? The princess should be waiting for us in front! Let's hurry up!" Liu Jingming and Shen Shaohan still got on the mule clumsily, and Master Liu couldn't help complaining. "Riding these two beasts will delay everything!"

The mule under him seemed to understand, and it bumped twice, almost throwing Liu Jingming off.

Shen Shaohan patted the mule under him lightly, and said with a smile: "Riding a horse is too ostentatious. Hongdu County has just gone through a war, and it is hard to find a horse in the city. If we bring two tall horses into the city, we will be recognized immediately." come out!"

Naturally Liu Jingming knew this, and just complained casually, they still chased after Zheng Wei.

They chased for a long time, and when they could see the princess Yijia from a distance, a person suddenly appeared on the road and blocked their way.

The entourage immediately became vigilant, protected the two adults behind them, and asked cautiously: "Who is it? Why are you blocking the way?"

The person blocking the way saluted them, and replied respectfully: "You two adults, it is the princess who ordered you to stop the two adults here, please come with the young one!"

The man turned around and saw that they were hesitant to move, so he couldn't help urging, "My lords, hurry up, the princess can't leave the guard of honor for too long!"

They followed up suspiciously, and actually saw Zheng Wei's figure in the pavilion one mile away.

Liu Jingming and Shen Shaohan looked at each other and went up to the pavilion. Could it be that the Princess is waiting for them specially as they guessed?
"Princess!" The two saluted Zheng Wei. Zheng Wei was wearing the court dress of a princess today, and he should accept the gift. He said with a smile, "Get up quickly, two adults! We are thinking of going together, and we are also thinking about how to take off those clothes." Eyes, when I met the two adults, I heard Liu Xiang say that you are also eager to see me! You might as well sit down, drink a cup of hot tea, and talk slowly!"

They looked up from a distance, and there was no sign of the guard of honor anymore. Looking at the princess in front of him who was not in a hurry, Shen Shaohan guessed that she had other plans and might not be in a hurry to return to Beijing, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

He glanced at Liu Jingming, got the affirmative look from the other party, and told them in detail what they had seen and heard along the way.

Although Zheng Wei was a little surprised after hearing this, she didn't ask in a panic. Instead, after pondering for a while, she told them what she knew, even the matter of Yang Jing and Zheng Heng, "At this time, brother is talking to you. Yang Jing is together, maybe he already knows who is behind Yang Zongzhou!"

Shen Shaohan was thoughtful, he connected all the current things together, and went through them carefully, "Food, official silver, and iron, these three things add up to be enough."

He didn't dare to say the last two words, but Zheng Wei shook his head. Xiao Yucheng also analyzed this matter with him last night. Although they didn't know that Yang Zongzhou was secretly still making iron, they had already considered the possibility of Yang's rebellion. Doubt over.

"People!" Zheng Wei was radiant when he spoke, "If Yang Zongzhou wants to rebel, he still needs a large army. This is not something that can be done with tens of thousands of people. Yang's foundation is not enough, he doesn't have such a big Forces recruit tens of thousands of troops without being noticed by surrounding generals."

"Didn't Yang Zongzhou plot rebellion? But these things are all about the barbarians. Why did he want to destroy the entire family?" Liu Jingming became more and more puzzled.

Shen Shaohan thought about it: "Yang Zongzhou doesn't have that much ability, maybe the person behind him doesn't have it!"

Zheng Wei thought the same way, she thought of what Xiao Yucheng said when she first came here, "Just two months ago, most of Hongdu County's troops were in the hands of Tan Chen, the head of the city defense battalion, but he was a loyal soldier from Jiujiang's old army." In the beginning, Yang Zongzhou was very hesitant to fight against Jiujiang, but after Tan Chen was killed, he decided to fight against Korea with us!"

"Does the princess think that the person behind Yang Zongzhou is General Han?" Liu Jingming and Shen Shaohan were shocked!

Zheng Wei shook his head, "I don't know, the Great General is actually not in Jiujiang all year round, and his sons are all outstanding, and they even have a scheming city that the General doesn't have!"
