Chapter 452
Hearing Yan Xiaowan's praise of other men, Xiao Lang tightened his grip on the chopsticks, and changed the topic calmly: "How many breaths are there in this yard, are they the ones that General Ning left for you?"

"Ah."

Yan Xiaowan was not surprised that he would find out the existence of those hidden guards, Xiao Lang is very good at kung fu, it would be strange if he didn't find out.

She suddenly remembered Princess Dilan who became the emperor's favorite concubine, put down her chopsticks and asked Xiao Lang: "Brother Xiao, what do you plan to do with the princess and prince of Di Xiguo?"

Xiao Lang said in a low voice: "Princess Dilan, the Queen will take care of it. The second prince Dijie has received the news that the Lord of Dixi Kingdom is critically ill, and is already on his way back to Dixi Kingdom."

"Running fast."

Yan Xiaowan snorted and laughed, her words were full of contempt for Di Jie.

Xiao Lang laughed: "Don't you run away and wait to die? He's not stupid."

Yan Xiaowan's words were full of admiration for Ning Lingzhi: "Of course, he won't return sooner or later, but he will go back at this time. General Ning is guarding the border town. He has been in the field, resourceful, strategizing, and more What's more, there are so many capable people under his command, not to mention Di Jie, even if his father comes, he will not be able to go back. Unless Di Jie diverts back to Di Xiguo, he will have a good fruit to eat!"

"You guessed it right, Dijie did change his route, and he made a big detour just to survive."

Xiao Lang looked at her unexpectedly, from the tone of this little girl, it seemed that he knew the situation of Di Xiguo and the border town very well.

Yan Xiaowan had a relationship with Di Jie once, anyway, she didn't like the people of Di Xi, "Hmph, he has some brains. Brother Xiao, I don't understand, you said that there are so many princes in Di Xi, Di Jie is Did you take the initiative to come to Daan, or was it forced?"

"He took the initiative to invite Ying to come to Da'an." Xiao Lang looked at her intently, "Do you think Dijie has other plans for coming to Da'an this time?"

Yan Xiaowan put down her chopsticks and ordered someone to bring the map of the border town, "Of course. Dijie must know that he can't bring food back from us, but he still came. Without huge benefits, he couldn't risk his life to come here Brother Xiao, since you know that he has changed his route, show me the way for him to return to Di Xiguo."

If Dijie wants to kick off the other heirs, he must make great contributions to silence those people if he succeeds in taking the position.

Di Xiguo was hit by such a severe snowstorm, the most urgent thing is to get enough food from Da'an country to go back.

Xiao Lang pointed to the path that Dijie was walking, and seeing clearly the route map drawn by Yan Xiaowan, his expression suddenly sank.

Yan Xiaowan pointed to Dijie's route map on the map, her face was extremely solemn: "Dijie took such a big detour, but his goal is actually the two lakes. There has been a saying since ancient times that Huguang is familiar with the world, and Dijie must be planning to Find a way to get food from the Lianghu area and bring it back."

The two lakes region is rich in grain and has always been known as the land of fish and rice.Even after more than ten years of war, the two lakes still harvest a large amount of grain every year.

In another month, the grain in the field should be mature.

According to Dijie's traveling speed, he still has more than half a month to reach the two lakes, and the grain in the field will be harvested.

Xiao Lang was thinking about the problem seriously, without saying a word.

Yan Xiaowan thought about the methods Di Jie might use, and asked him, "Does Di Jie have contacts with people from the Lianghu area?"

Xiao Lang shook his head: "Since Dijie came to Da'an, he and his people are under our control, and we haven't noticed any abnormal behaviors from him."

Yan Xiaowan's lips were pursed into a line. She was busy preparing food and grass for her brother during this time, and neglected to be on guard against Di Jie.

"Brother Xiao, the people of Dixi believe in the law of the jungle, and the strong are king. They have the ferocity of a wild wolf in their bones. Dijie looks gentle and harmless, but he is definitely not a good stubble. This time I was busy with other things. Things, neglect to pay attention to him."

After this incident, Xiao Lang looked at Di Jie with a little more admiration, but he did not expect that Di Jie, who seemed weak and harmless, would hide his thoughts so deeply.

"Dijie is too cunning. He dared to take such a big risk to come to Da'an country. He must have enough confidence to achieve his goal. I suspect that someone in the capital will match him up. My people have been staring at him, not aware of his abnormality. I guess Di Jie had already started to make arrangements before he came to the capital. Otherwise, he would not be able to not miss a single tell."

Yan Xiaowan didn't agree with Xiao Lang's statement that "Dijie doesn't miss a single trick".

"Dijie's character is very cautious. The key to his success is to transport the grain from the Lianghu area back to Dixi Country. How can he be at ease if he doesn't keep an eye on such a big matter? So, Dijie must be with Those people have been in contact."

Xiao Lang thought of a possibility through her reminder, what if Dijie's purpose is not to transport back from the Lianghu area, but to focus on the food and grass that Yan Xiaowan spent so much effort to raise?
Yan Xiaowan didn't go to see him for several days, and when he was depressed, he asked someone to check Yan Xiaowan's movements, and learned that she was busy preparing food and grass for Ning Lingzhi to transport there.

When he thought of this possibility, he couldn't help but change his face, "Xiao Wan, haven't you shipped a batch of grain and grass to General Ning these few days? What if Dijie came to us and made a fuss? Our sight made us think that he was planning to get food from the two lakes area, but in fact, he sent people to find out that you were mobilizing food and grass for General Ning."

Sound east and west?

Xiao Lang's guess is not impossible. Di Xiguo used Dijie's delay in returning to the country as an excuse to send troops to the border between the two countries.

If the soldiers and horses are not moving, the grain and grass will go first.

Di Xiguo took the initiative to invade, and Da'an Kingdom must send troops to the border, which means that a large amount of grain and grass will be transported to the border town.

When the time comes, the robbers in Di Xiguo will use their usual methods to snatch the batch of grain and grass, and they will be able to get a very considerable amount of grain without spending a penny.

Yan Xiaowan's way of raising food and grass is very secretive. If Xiao Lang had those ubiquitous shadow guards, he would never have known that she was transporting food and grass to Ning Lingzhi.

The soldiers responsible for transporting this batch of food and grass were carefully selected by her. They were not only armed but also experienced. She was very relieved of these people.

Even if Dijie really has the idea of ​​food and grass, it is afraid that it is the batch of food and grass that the imperial court mobilized to go to the border.

Yan Xiaowan couldn't help saying with emotion: "The Shadow Guard is well-deserved."

The shadow guards under Xiao Lang's control lived up to their name, they really were everywhere, following them like a shadow, and nothing could escape their eyes.

Xiao Lang didn't know what she meant, he coughed a few times to cover up his embarrassment: "Ahem, Xiao Wan, I have no other meaning."

He just wanted to know what Yan Xiaowan was busy with, so he didn't even have time to visit him.
