The general's wife through time

Chapter 217 Closing the Net
So many things happened today, and the queen had already anticipated the follow-up, so she arranged for her to wait outside the royal study.

As soon as Li Changle left the house, he was stuffed with a large bag of snacks and clothes.

The snacks are not the best in the palace, nor are they Li Changle's favorite food, but they are easy to store and carry. The clothes are not silk and satin, but some coarse cloth to facilitate her hiding her identity, but inside the clothes They are all layered with fine cotton, making them very comfortable to wear.

Mammy also whispered to Li Changle, "There are enough menstrual belts and hand stoves for three months in here. The queen told me that the spring in the north is very cold at this time, so the princess should take care of herself..."

Not long after they returned to the palace, she didn't know how her mother prepared so many things. She only knew that she had made her mother worry again. A warm current suddenly surged into Li Changle's heart. Her nose felt sore, but she still bit her lip and was strong not to let tears fall.

At this moment, she has a deeper understanding of the concept of home and family.

After seeing Li Changle off, Emperor Jingkang had a lot of thoughts. He was silent for a while, raised his head, and said to little Eunuch Li: "Show me in Changning Palace."

When he arrived at Changning Palace, the queen was sitting at the table, staring at a bowl of white porridge in a daze, her eyes red.

This was the reason why the Queen did not go to see Li Changle off in person. She was worried that if she saw her daughter's appearance, she would be soft-hearted and leave Li Changle behind, thus delaying the important event.

Emperor Jingkang sat next to her and patted her back gently, "Okay, when the child grows up, he will go out for a walk. There are four masters secretly protecting her, so nothing will happen."

The queen raised her head and glared at Emperor Jingkang, "Nothing will happen? What she said is categorical. Do you believe it?"

When Emperor Jingkang was trapped in a cave in the north, he was ambushed by more than twenty masters in black. Later, Emperor Jingkang was captured by the enemy and became a hostage. Over the years, Emperor Jingkang has been investigating the identities of the masters hired by the Tatars, but to no avail. The reason why Qin Shuanyuan entered the Ghost Mist Forest last year was to chase one of the targets. Unfortunately, when he caught him The master had been eaten by the monsters in the forest, leaving only his bones.

"I don't believe it." Emperor Jingkang blurted out, "But we have to comfort ourselves like this. Changle is the legitimate princess. She has enjoyed the support of the people for so many years. She has grown up in fine clothes and fine food. She must learn to be responsible."

Queen: "Of course I know. The child has grown up, and my daughter can no longer continue to be pampered. Even if the masters in the inner city may not be able to defeat the hidden masters in the north, Changle must go for it. The reason why Qin Shuanyuan only reported and The main reason for not dealing with those bugs in the Northern Territory is that the governor of Beichang Prefecture is my brother-in-law. This time Xue Tang arranged for Qin Mingshu to go to the Northern Territory for training, obviously to help Qin Huangyuan advance the case, and neither of them wanted to get involved. Between His Majesty and the emperor's relatives, that's why Chang Le was involved in a game of chess. I hope that after this incident, Chang Le can figure out the key when he comes back and learn more from Xue Tang to see what his mind is like. What is it used for..."

Emperor Jingkang shook his head and his face became a little darker.

You have to look at people's minds.

He almost got caught up in the chess game between Xue Tang and Qin Mingyuan. He didn't quite believe that the Princess Jiao Didi he raised could understand. Queen, you praise Changle too much.

He originally asked Lu Ying to go to the northern border with the intention of leveraging his strength.

When Lu Ying was the Minister of Rites in Beijing, he had formed a clique. Punishment could not be accomplished in a day or two. In addition, he had just taken charge of the government at that time, and he borrowed Lu Ying's power before taking charge. He did not want the Queen Mother to let the Queen Mother down. One party took advantage of him and did not want Lu Ying to say that he was ungrateful, so they sent him far to the north. The partisanship among ministers has existed since ancient times. He just wanted to use Qin Huangyuan's hand to help him rule Lu Ying, and also wanted to use Lu Ying's shrewdness to test Qin Huangyuan's loyalty.

However, Qin Shuanyuan was loyal, but Lu Ying became more and more arrogant in the northern border. Qin Shuanyuan secretly collected all the evidence but did not take action. When he came back, he handed it all over to him. Qin Shuanyuan's reason was very good, because Dajing's The army and local governance are separated, and Qin Shuanyuan's status as a general makes it inconvenient to interfere in local government affairs.

After going around in circles, the potato finally came back and burned his hand. If he hadn't known that Qin Huangyuan was a general and had rushed to Qin Huangyuan without sharing his worries, he would have dealt with Qin Huangyuan well.

Emperor Jingkang sent Li Changle there, but he didn't really have much hope that she could do anything. He just wanted his daughter to see the world. No matter how great the truth was, it might not be possible for the children to memorize it just by telling them. They can understand it, but they still have to experience it personally. After tasting the bitterness and enjoying the sweetness, they will naturally remember it deeply. The secret order he gave Qin Mingshu to act cheaply is even more critical. As for their safety, because it was Xue Tang who asked him to go, he I wasn't very worried. Fuxing was too good at calculating, so Xue Tang's arrangement would definitely not involve any murder case.

In the evening, Mu Xian was sitting in the elegant room of Taotie Building, sipping tea lightly, his eyes always following an inconspicuous carriage with green curtains on the East Street.

Qin Lu suddenly appeared behind him, looking at the sunset outside the window with only the last ray of afterglow left, he said leisurely: "You people are so calculating. If I hadn't overheard the conversation between the princess and Xiaobai today, I would really I don’t know that your ultimate goal of sweeping the streets every day is to send Li Changle to the north. "

"It's not us, don't add me in. It's the prince and the princess who have calculated too much. I just figured it out. It turns out that I only thought that the prince asked me to continue sweeping the streets because he wanted me to collect all kinds of subtle anomalies in Beijing every day. Only today did I know that the abnormality of Li Gang’s family is the key.”

"It's also important to help Li Changle cook and not let her starve to death."

Mu Xian's pupils suddenly shrank and he stared at Qin Lu consciously, "Didn't you say that the prince did not tell the princess about my affairs when he left Beijing? Then how did the princess know that she wanted to use the whereabouts of Li Gang's family that I provided? If there was even a slight time difference between Li Changle, Emperor Jingkang, and Li Gang's son, there wouldn't be such a great show today, and Li Changle's trip to the north wouldn't have gone so smoothly."

Qin Lu sat down opposite Mu Xian and cleared his throat.

The princess doesn't need to hand over anything, because the princess can do the math!
It's just that he promised Xue Tang not to tell anyone about Xue Tang's divination skills.

He lowered his eyes to hide the look in his eyes, paused, frowned, and asked without answering, "Do you think that the prince had already calculated that Li Changle would be demoted to a commoner? That's why he let you sneak into Nanqu. The team is pretending to live a hard life?"

Mu Xian gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty is not that evil, and my hard life is real and I have never pretended."

As he said that, he turned his palms up and showed off the calluses on his hands, "Look, this is the proof. Also, it is your ANBU's job to find out information. I have helped you a lot, how can you thank me?" I?"

Qin Lu nodded with satisfaction, "You look like a man now. And you have to be lucky. Fortunately, Li Changle took the bait so quickly. Otherwise, if you sweep the streets for another month, Li Changshen will come back, and he will see you by then." I won’t laugh at you forever. As a thank you, I’ll treat you to sushi.”

Mu Xian raised his foot and kicked Qin Lu hard under the table, "Thank me for the new dishes from my Taotie Restaurant. Your sincerity has been eaten by dogs? Li Changshen is not much better, okay? With that, What are you kidding me about?”
