Chapter 498
"In this way, first, our task of helping the victims here will continue. You must send reliable people to keep watch and report to the capital regularly. Second, you must find a large number of doctors to treat the patients here carefully. Take a look and ensure their health. Third, we will take the young people here out of the cold city in batches, and go to the other 27 cities to be apprentices, or work, or Go to the army camp to join the army. And the children who can follow their parents follow their parents, and those who cannot, I will arrange for them to study in the capital."

Liao Wang listened carefully, "Yes, I understand, and I will do it one by one. What about the Fourth Highness, and the old people?"

"Hehe, you are very caring, and you still remember the old people. I also have arrangements for the old people and some children who are too young." As he spoke, Luo Ziyan took out two pieces of paper from the table and handed them to the old people. Liao Wang.

"This is--"

"This is an estimate of the drawings and materials. I plan to build a simple support hall a little to the south, where the helpless old people and young children will settle down. It is allocated by the imperial court every year. To support and bring them up for their silver."

"Great." Liao Wang looked over, "Your Highness, your plan is too thorough."

"Okay, let's see, all these tasks are entrusted to you, can you complete them?"

"Yes, yes. That's not right. Hey, Fourth Highness, the humble minister is alone, and the man is weak. I'm afraid the time will not be fast."

"Alright, after I return to the capital, I will send more people to you."

"That's good, the minister can rest assured, His Royal Highness can rest assured, the minister will do his best to complete the task of His Highness."

Liao Wang got Luo Ziyan's order and backed away.

Yun An stood aside, "Fourth Highness, since the tasks have been handed over, everything is going smoothly. Then, it's freezing here, shouldn't we go back to the country earlier?"

Luo Ziyan nodded, "Yes, there are still many things waiting for me in the capital. By the way, Yun An, how many years have you been with me?"

"Hey, this subordinate has been following Qin Wu, how many years has Qin Wu been, so how many years has been the subordinate."

"Okay, then I will give you another task."

"What is it?"

"Come with ears."

Luo Ziyan whispered into Yun An's ear.

Yun An frowned, "Your Highness, what, why?"

Luo Ziyan said: "Because you have to be careful about everything."

Yun An was still a little confused, "Your Highness, the subordinates don't understand."

"It's okay, you will understand later."

"Okay, my subordinates will do it first."

"Well, let's send someone to prepare, and return to the capital today."

It was already early April when Luo Ziyan returned to the capital.

If it was in the Yan Dynasty, it must be the season when the green willows spit out new ones.

However, the cold Dahe is still covered with ice and snow.

Luo Ziyan is back, Qin Wu and Qiying are back, and Ye Ming.

After a simple dinner, Luo Ziyan and Meng Qianyan called these cronies into the study.

The candle burned quietly.

They reported one by one.

"Your Highness, this subordinate has been staying in the county these days, and has been investigating the houses of the First Prince Guan overtly and secretly. It is said that since the First Prince was imprisoned, those houses have been sealed. The so-called 'women'. On the surface, those women were all the women of the First Prince. But when the subordinates inquired carefully, they found that the First Prince they were talking about was completely different from the First Prince that General Mu was talking about."

"What does this mean?" Qin Wu asked in surprise.

"My subordinates learned from those women in the county city that the eldest prince is a man with a strong figure who eats and drinks all day long. However, when his subordinates came back and asked General Mu, General Mu said that the eldest prince was thin and he was a man. A very humble person."

The more Meng Qianyan listened, the more shocked he became, "Could it be that the 'Elder Prince' that those people are talking about is not the real 'Elder Prince'!"

Luo Ziyan took a deep breath, "If what Qiying said is true, then obviously she is not alone. Qiying, where are those women?"

"The subordinate brought back two more obedient ones, and they have settled down in secret."

Luo Ziyan nodded, then looked at Qin Wu again, "What about you? What did the investigation reveal?"

Qin Wu sighed, "Qiying's investigation is really clear. But the subordinate's investigation is not clear."

"Why do you say that?" Qiying said.

"The subordinates went to the border of Mongolia and secretly investigated the situation of the military pay. However, no soldiers knew what the military pay was like. Their military pay was not paid every month, and they had no idea who delivered the military pay. border."

"The discipline in the military camp is strict, and it is indeed difficult to investigate."

"However, although the subordinates did not investigate anything related to military pay, they confirmed something else."

"What's the matter?"

"Several soldiers at the border have already married wives, and the wives of those soldiers are the daughters of Prime Minister Liu's confidantes."

Luo Ziyan nodded, "Very well, I understand."

As he said that, he looked at Ye Ming again. Ye Ming looked serious, as if he was thinking about something.

"Ye Ming, it's your turn."

"Subordinates—" Ye Ming came back to his senses, "Subordinates went to find Feng Ruhai, but unfortunately, Feng Ruhai went there not long after he retired and returned home."

"Go?" Meng Qianyan said: "This is too coincidental."

"Yes, I also asked his relatives, that is, his nephews. His nephews all said that after he returned, he was depressed and left soon. However, when he was leaving , left a letter to the eldest prince."

Ye Ming took out a letter from his cuff, and the letter had been opened.

Luo Ziyan glanced over.

Ye Ming said: "The subordinates have read the letter. There are only some farewell words and nothing else. It's just very strange. Why do you write this kind of letter?"

After Luo Ziyan finished reading, he frowned slightly.

"It's probably not that simple."

"By the way, Yumiao!" Meng Qianyan said: "Your Highness, I rescued Yumiao out of the clothing workshop, and now I am in our mansion."

"Go quickly and get Yumiao here."

In the middle of the night, Meng Qianyan sent someone to call for someone.

Yu Miao arrived soon, saw Luo Ziyan, and knelt down on the ground.

Luo Ziyan was straightforward, "Yu Miao, let me ask you, are you familiar enough with Feng Ruhai?"

"Familiar, I have known Eunuch Feng since I was very young, and Eunuch Feng is also very kind to His Royal Highness."

"Then do you know what Eunuch Feng is good at?"

"What are you good at?" Yu Miao thought again and again.

Luo Ziyan then asked: "For example, what does he like? Does he often do something?"

"The servant can't remember—"

"Then, what about the First Prince? Does the First Prince like anything in particular?"

"The eldest prince, I like reading, I like painting, yes, I especially like painting landscapes."

"Draw the landscape." Luo Ziyan murmured, looking at the letter over and over again, but really couldn't see anything strange.

Meng Qianyan seemed to think of something suddenly, "Fourth Highness, I suddenly remembered something."

"what's up?"

"Did you forget when the second uncle was framed back then? It is said that there is a special kind of pigment."

"That's right!" Luo Ziyan frowned, and immediately said: "Qin Wu, quickly go and monitor the wives of those soldiers, they are the daughters of Prime Minister Liu's followers."

"Yes."

"Qiying, you took good care of those so-called 'women' of big brother."

"What about your subordinates?" Ye Ming asked.

"You, take me to the First Prince's Mansion again."
