Chapter 217

Old master Xie opened the letter in his hand, read it carefully, looked at him up and down again, and the center of his eyebrows made a group. After thinking about it, he asked, "you just made it clear that you are the personal guard of Princess Ding'an, but Princess Ding'an wants to help you enter the palace in her letter, but I don't know what it means?"

Standing at the head of the cloud scenic spot nodded, raised his eyes, looked at the old master Xie in front of him, smiled and said, "dare you ask the old master if it's difficult to sleep recently, insomnia in the middle of the night, and I even cough."

As soon as he said this, general Xie was surprised and symptomatic, but he didn't need to feel his pulse first. Why did the person in front of him start to break his illness before he got close? He immediately shouted, pulled out his long sword at his waist, pointed to the clouds in front of him, and said angrily: "A bodyguard, who is so good at diagnosing diseases, said, who are you? What's the purpose of coming to Xie's house?"

"Beard son, don't be rude." as soon as his voice fell, he was interrupted by the words of old master Xie, "don't get back quickly."

"Father." although general Xie didn't understand his meaning, his father spoke. As long as he stepped back, he still looked warily in the direction of the cloud.

Old master Xie stepped forward to the side of the Cloud View and said, "you haven't felt my pulse yet. It's not easy."

"Father, what are you talking about?" general Xie became more and more like falling clouds.

Old master Xie handed the letter to general Xie next to him, looked at the direction of the Cloud View and nodded: "even though it was entrusted by Princess Ding'an, everything is for your highness. I should do my best."

Then he said to Yunjing, "general Yun, stay in the mansion today. I'll try to arrange you to enter the Palace tomorrow."

"So, thank the old master more." seeing that the other party agreed, Yunjing was also relieved.

……

These days, Liangzhou and Wuzhou have besieged the mountains with water bandits. Now more than ten days have passed, and it will snow heavily these days.

Yun Xueyao stood under the corridor and looked at the heavy snow. She was very relieved.

The rainbow next to him ran over quickly and put on his cloak. He trembled and said, "why did it suddenly snow so heavily this day? It's freezing to death. The pot of tea just made by the slave and maid turned out to be frozen."

"The tea is frozen. You can make another pot. It's not a big deal." Yun Xueyao smiled and let her tie her clothes.

"Hum." Rainbow snorted, "the princess said lightly. It's said that it seldom snows in Wuzhou. It's snowing suddenly these days. The residence needs charcoal fire to keep warm. The charcoal on the market has increased for several rounds. It is said that the supply is in short supply. Now the charcoal seller has made a lot of money."

Seeing her serious appearance, Yun Xueyao burst out laughing: "look at your jealous appearance, don't you hate that there is no charcoal to sell in King Xiang's residence."

Rainbow was about to retort. When she saw the king Xiang coming in, she quickly shut her mouth, stood up straight and bowed in the direction of the king Xiang.

The other party raised his hand with a smile and let him get up. He walked briskly in front of Yun Xueyao: "what are you talking about? I heard your laughter all the way. If you say it, I'll be happy."

Yun Xueyao looked at the rainbow, and the rainbow shook her head again and again. Yun Xueyao smiled and shook her head: "it's nothing. Looking at your Highness's good mood today, there's nothing happy."

"Xueyao is always smart." Xiang Wang nodded happily, held Yun Xueyao's hand, sat down on the stone bench next to him, and then said, "I'm interested in guessing today."

The four eyes are opposite, and Yun Xueyao's eyes are curved: "it's rare that your highness is in such a good mood recently. If you want to come to Xiangwang mansion, you can have this ability, except for the current suppression of bandits, Xue Yao really can't think of it."

Seeing what she said, King Xiang immediately flashed an undisguised appreciation in his eyes: "it seems that Xueyao is the one who has the best connection with me in this world."

If she is so frank, even though Yun Xueyao has a thick skin, she can't help but blush. When she hears the rainbow coming out with hot tea from inside, she also hides her mouth and smiles.

"Look at this heavy snow, it's really time." Xiangwang took the opportunity to hold Yun Xueyao's hands in his hands, looked at the heavy snow falling in the yard, and said, "when you first came to Wuzhou, you don't know that it rarely snows in Wuzhou. This time, it's always snowing in Liangzhou, Wuzhou. I'm afraid it won't work if you don't get cold and burn charcoal to keep warm on today's mountains."

Yun Xueyao nodded and said with a smile, "if they can't carry it and burn charcoal for heating, we will find fireworks. At that time, they will expose their hiding place."

"If they don't burn charcoal fire to keep warm, I'll see how they can resist the heavy snow for a few days." Xiang Wang also said with a smile.

"It seems that your highness really has the advantage this time." Yun Xueyao also nodded. "Today, your Highness has a clear mind. It seems that it has been arranged already?"

The other party smiled and nodded, but did not hide: "I have released the news and intend to beat the drowning dog. The army besieged the group of bandits in Dawang mountain in front and set an example."

Release the news and beat the water dog in pain. Yun Xueyao carefully looked at the Xiang king in front of her. Suddenly, there was a flow in her mind: "Your Highness, what do you mean by this is that you don't intend to really attack?"

"These days, I have examined these bandits carefully. They have been rampant here for many years. I have been fighting with Cheng Jun in the front, and I have basically never asked about these situations. This time, I found some local officials to ask about them. Only then did I know that these bandits have not been encircled and suppressed, but they basically threw themselves into the air every time." King Xiang smiled slightly, Reached for a few snowflakes in his hand.

Every time, people escaped from the encirclement and suppression. It seems that these people are really well-informed: "so your highness suspects that they are well-informed because they have insiders in the Yamen?"

"How can a fierce bandit in the mountains skillfully avoid encirclement and suppression every time if he doesn't have someone from the government as an insider?"

"Well, your highness, this time, it's the reason to spread doubt. You want to find out those insiders and catch them all?" Yun Xueyao looked at his face and guessed.

The corner of Xiang Wang's mouth was slightly tilted. He saw Xie Yao coming in quickly from the outside. They stopped their voice and looked over there.

Xie Yao came forward, looked at them, took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it up: "Your Highness, this is the list of officials who are not in the Yamen these days. Please have a look."

The other party's spirit perked up, reached out and took over, glanced at it with a low eyebrow, and said in a cold voice, "there are really many people. No wonder these bandits are well-informed and feed so many moths."

Xie Yao pursed his lips and didn't open his mouth. After King Xiang read the list, he said, "Your Highness, these people and their subordinates have checked their whereabouts. Although the reasons for leaving the Yamen are different, they all left the city and disappeared."

"That is to say, these people are suspicious and may be spies of those people," said King Xiang.

When the other party heard the speech, he nodded gently and stepped forward: "yes, so my subordinates have detained them. Your highness, when will the trial begin?"

The Xiangwang bar here collected the list and stood up slowly. There were a lot of people. Although it was not difficult to try, it was hard to piece up the news. Moreover, the news obtained under torture must be climbing and biting each other, but it was a little less accurate. Later, I was afraid it would be hard to distinguish and screen again. When things became noisy, it would also disturb the thieves and bandits on the mountain, We have to think of a good way.

Seeing that the Xiang King's face changed and didn't speak for a long time, Yun Xueyao here also stood up, walked slowly to the Xiang king, and asked Xie Yao, "general Xie has inquired about these people's families, but how many live in the city? But there is news."

"They basically live in the city. There are many houses in the Yamen backyard. For convenience, most of these people, even those who do not live in the yamen, live near the Yamen. Spies have detailed records."

Xie Yao answered like a stream.

"That's good." Yun Xueyao nodded with satisfaction. "The detention of these officials didn't disturb their families."
