"Caught it!" The subordinate came in from the outside and said to Lu Shaoyu who was sitting there handling official business.

Lu Shaoyu put down the official document in his hand and asked, "How many people have been arrested?"

"120 seven..." The subordinate replied.

"No, there are three more." Lu Shaoyu said, "These three people should be very cunning, and they were not fooled."

"What should I do?"

"Now that you have already alerted the enemy, the same method is useless. You find out the identities and appearances of the three people, issue a reward order, and want them all over the country."

There is no impenetrable wall in this world, as long as they walk outside, someone will always find their whereabouts.Furthermore, there is another profession called bounty hunter, as long as the money is enough, there is no one they can't catch.

The three fish that slipped through the net were counted out quickly, and the government issued a wanted reward order.

At night, Lu Yi entered the house and asked the housekeeper if the young master had come back, and the housekeeper said he had.

"When the young master came back, he ordered someone to pack his luggage. It looks like he's going on a long trip," said the steward.

"Where is he now?"

"study."

"Have you eaten yet?"

"The young master said he used it outside, so he locked himself in the study after he came back and never came out."

"We are the only ones left at home. There is nothing else to talk about except business. That kid is stubborn and never says anything unnecessary to me." Lu Yi took off his cloak and handed it to the servant next to him.

The housekeeper said beside him: "The young master followed the master."

"Ma'am is doing important things in Tongyang City, I'm afraid she has long forgotten that we are there." Lu Yi said in a low tone.

The butler and a few servants next to him lowered their heads and laughed sullenly.

Other families are complaining wives, and their Lu family is complaining husbands.Look at the master's generation of prime ministers, when he mentions his wife, he is full of resentment, like a resentful husband who was abandoned at home by a woman.

"Sir, do you need a meal?"

"No, it's been used outside."

Mu Siyu and the children were not there, and Lu Yi, like Lu Shaoyu, would rather deal with it outside than come back to endure the desertion.

Lu Yi went straight into the study.

Lu Shaoyu heard footsteps and stood up to meet Lu Yi.

"father……"

"I heard that you are packing your luggage. Are you going on a long trip?"

"I want to track down the whereabouts of those children." Lu Shaoyu said.

"Tell me what you think..."

Lu Shaoyu expressed his guess.

"The son felt that they should have entered the territory of the good country by water."

"If you go to a good country, it's not easy to get those children back. If it causes disputes, it will also lead to hostility between the two countries." Lu Yi said, "Do you have a countermeasure?"

"Not yet, my son decided to take one step at a time, and the boat will naturally go straight when it reaches the bridge," Lu Shaoyu said.

Lu Yi took out a feather-shaped iron piece from his arms.

"This is the Feather Token," Lu Yi said. "It is the contact token of our intelligence network. You take it, and if you need help, you can ask for help at the local store with a feather shape."

"Thank you dad."

"Whether you can get it back or not, your safety is very important." Lu Yi said, "Don't let yourself get hurt, otherwise I won't be able to explain to your mother."

"The last sentence is the key point!" Lu Shaoyu pouted.

"Who said that? You are my son, and of course I don't want anything to happen to you." Lu Yi patted him on the shoulder, "After all, if something happens to you, when will I be able to retire and return home?"

Lu Shaoyu: "..."

In fact, this is something that everyone has tacitly understood, so it doesn't need to be so clear.

As soon as Lu Shaoyu left the capital, Lu Yi became busy again.

King Xuan was assassinated and seriously injured, and needed to go to the Valley of the Medicine King to recuperate.

Fan Yuanxi directly sent a team led by General Su Sheng to send Fan Yan to Yaowang Valley.

A few days later, a soldier fled back to the capital with his seriously injured body, and reported to Fan Yuanxi that General Su Sheng was assassinated and died, and that King Xuan fell off a cliff and died.

"Where is General Su Sheng's body?" Fan Yuanxi asked coldly.

"Back to the emperor, we took thirty people with us, and only one subordinate was left alive. The subordinate was seriously injured and couldn't take care of General Su Sheng's body, so we handed him over to the nearby villagers..." the soldier finished speaking , spit out a mouthful of blood.

"Come here, Imperial Physician Xuan." Fan Yuanxi said.

Lu Yi looked at Fan Yuanxi: "Leave this matter to Lu Xuan! General Su Sheng is his father-in-law, and now he died outside. He should be asked to pick him up and investigate this matter thoroughly."

When Lu Xuan heard about this, his heart was heavy.

He didn't hide it from Su Zhiliu, and told him about it.

"I want to go with you." Su Zhiliu blushed and controlled her emotions. "But before I go, I have to go home and tell my mother..."

Su Zhiliu went back to Su's house and told Xiao Shi about it.

After Xiao Shi learned about it, she locked herself in the room for half an hour.

Su Zhiliu stood outside the door, listening to the crying inside.

Even though she tried her best to suppress herself, the voice of grief still came out.

Half an hour later, Mrs. Xiao came out, dressed in plain clothes, and said, "I'll go pick him up with you."

When sending Lu Xuan and others out of the city, Lu Yi apologized to Xiao Shi.

Xiao shook her head lightly: "Master, don't talk about this. He is a general and a subject. How can there be a subject who doesn't kill the enemy? The emperor arranged him like this because he thinks highly of him. He told me when he came back The emperor told him that King Xuan was cheated when he was assassinated and went to Yaowanggu. He told him to be careful along the way. It would be best if he could figure out the purpose of King Xuan. I think he should have been very careful, but the other party is too cunning, so he still followed his way."

"Madam's condolences."

"My husband is most worried about my daughter. As long as she is well, we husband and wife have nothing to worry about."

Lu Yi pulled Lu Xuan to the corner, and said in a low voice, "I'm afraid this journey will be uneven. You still have two female relatives with you, so you have to be more careful. I sent a team to protect you secretly, and they won't show up at ordinary times." , will only show up at critical moments."

"Brother, don't worry, I know it well." Lu Xuan said, "The carriage is not an ordinary carriage, but I ordered it from my sister-in-law's apprentices, and there are many traps in it. Don't say anything else, if you are really in danger, mother-in-law and Liu As long as you don't come out, nothing will happen."

"You can take them with you, it can make the other party relax their vigilance. If you want to check something, it will be more convenient."

After sending Lu Xuan away, Lu Yi ordered his men to keep an eye on Prince Xuan's mansion.

Although there is an unfavored concubine left in Prince Xuan's mansion, there are still many followers of Fan Yan there. Fan Yan may not care about that woman, the only son and several important followers will always be taken away.

Lu Yi went to the palace again.

In front of Fan Yuanxi were several generals' nameplates.

Seeing his appearance, Lu Yi said, "Those who didn't know thought you were going to flop."

"I'm upset, don't bother me." Fan Yuanxi threw the name tag in his hand, "General Su Sheng actually folded it here. It is precisely because I believe in General Su Sheng's ability that I entrust him with important tasks. Apart from him, I don't feel at ease to hand it over to anyone else. If I knew what was going on, it would be better... Forget it, it's useless to say these things now. Once General Su Sheng leaves, it's not appropriate to let anyone replace him."

There is no shortage of capable people in the court, but there are not many people like General Su Sheng who are reassuring.

Don't underestimate Fan Yan, there are still many of his people in the court, but they are so well hidden that even Lu Yi has no way to find them out.

"Then let's use new people!" Lu Yi said, "The emperor should have trained a lot of his own people, right? If you don't use it now, when will you have to wait?"

"Just use it directly like this. Isn't that telling everyone that this person was arranged by me, and he is my confidant, hurry up and guard against him?"
