After rebirth, Her Royal Highness is a black lotus flower

Chapter 54

Song Huai scolded in a cold voice, picked up his knife from the side, and looked at the corner vigilantly.

After a while, a figure walked out from a dark corner, "It's me."

Hearing someone's voice, Song Huaicai relaxed his guard, put down the knife in his hand, took out a fire pocket, and lit the candlestick.

The faint light came on, and at once, he could see the other party clearly. It was Zhou Yan who came.

Zhou Yan is not a talkative person. When he saw Song Huai, he immediately stated his intentions, "Your Majesty knows that the food team escorted by His Royal Highness to Jibei was robbed. Master has been secretly investigated in the past few days. Now there are clues. , this matter, you still need to do it."

The crown prince returned to the capital, everything went well, the food team was robbed, there are some nursery rhymes in the market, they all sing the virtues of His Royal Highness and the eldest son of the Xie family who sacrificed their lives to escort the grain and save the people from fire and water.

The food was really robbed, but few people knew about it.

On the day the prince returned to Beijing, he reported the events of the day to Emperor Yongjia. Emperor Yongjia was furious and ordered the people from Dongchang to investigate secretly.

Now we finally have a clue.

Song Huai thought for a moment, then declined, "I'm in the palace, and everything remains the same, so I'm afraid it's inappropriate for me to come."

It is inconvenient to enter and leave the palace, and it is even more hindered to do things.

Zhou Yan took out a few letters from his bosom and put them on the table, "Master has his own principles, you can see what you see, and you can adjust the manpower, I'll go first."

Inadvertently, he caught a glimpse of something in Song Huai's hand from the corner of his eye, and then with the faint candlelight, he saw that it seemed to be a touch of a woman's embroidered handkerchief.

Zhou Yan's eyes darkened slightly, but he didn't say anything, and left through the window.

Song Huai opened the letter and read it carefully, traced it all the way from the robbery in Jibei to Beijing, and finally found Liu Yi, who was in charge of military supplies under Lord Xue.

I'm afraid the Xue family is involved in this matter, it's not so easy to investigate, it must be a hard bone.

If you can gnaw it, it must be beneficial, even if you can't gnaw it, it's just exhausting.

Since His Majesty asked for a secret investigation, he had no intention of letting outsiders know about this matter. If the truth was not found out at this time, His Majesty would not openly blame it and startle the snake.

After Song Huai finished reading the letters, he burned them with this candle.

Shen Qianzhao was lying on the recliner wearing a veil, watching the singing and dancing in the lobby downstairs, feeling very happy.

Xie Lin on the side was drinking some wine and eating some side dishes, "Master, I've already squatted down to that Liu Yi. In two days, those people will pick up a batch of goods at the pier, saying that they will be shipped away. There are eight out of ten. Nine is the opportunity we're looking for."

"I'm ready. When the time comes, I'll bring a group of people, smash him clean, and send him to His Majesty for conviction!"

Xie Lin was so ambitious, he said it with joy, and Cai Qiu who was beside him applauded slightly, "Second Young Master Xie is so amazing!"

Shen Qianzhao turned his gaze sideways, and looked at Xie Lin like a fool, Xie Lin was stared at by Shen Qianzhao so that he felt guilty.

"If you think my strategy is not good, you need to make up a reason."

Shen Qianzhao pressed his forehead, "Let me ask you, who are you going to take to arrest Liu Yi? If the things are just ordinary goods and not military supplies, and Liu Yi bites back, how will you explain it? If Xue Shide pushes everything on On Liu Yi, even if Liu Yi is convicted, how are we going to catch Xue Shide, the big fish behind the scenes?"

It is by no means easy to shake the Xue family, therefore, one needs to be more cautious when encountering problems.

Xie Lin nodded, and agreed with Shen Qianzhaode's words, "Then I will sneak into the boat by myself, and after confirming the contents of the boat, I will send out a signal to arrest people."
