Since the first two Weiyuan Hou Xiangzhu emperors assessed the surrounding territory, the surrounding territory has been stable, the people within the territory have been protected from turmoil, and their lives have become peaceful.

As for the Northern Territory, although it is vast, the people's livelihood is poor. Most of the people are nomadic and depend on God for food... This is why Princess Lingxi is already the daughter of the Northern Territory King and wants to marry. The reason for the big week.

Compared with northern Xinjiang, southern Xinjiang is rich in products and is self-sufficient. Although the people in southern Xinjiang have mediocre fighting power, they are good at using poison to block Yin Gu. Therefore, after the Great Zhou pacified southern Xinjiang, they directly dispersed their tribes. The ten clans are constantly fighting with each other. If they want to develop stably, they need to rely on the support of Zhou Dynasty. For the imperial court, the crisis has been resolved! But now, although the Wa clan is gaining momentum, because it is the Wa clan's turn to be in power in southern Xinjiang at this time, the court does not pay attention to them... Wei Mu Rong just observed it.

If we want to talk about Vai's disappearance this time, who will benefit from it...

The answer seems to be coming soon.

Chu He's expression suddenly changed: "According to what the county lord said just now, Northern Xinjiang should be the biggest beneficiary of Vai's disappearance. Could it be that the people from Northern Xinjiang did it?"

Xu Rongrong did not comment, and Mu Rong on the side did not answer.

Princess Lingxi still lived in the palace after her birth. Although the maid Herme beside her seduced the deposed crown prince and the crown princess to leave, causing the queen to dislike her, his majesty never kicked her out of the palace, let alone banished her. Her plan to send her back to Northern Xinjiang...

To be honest, she has been operating in the palace for half a year, so it is not difficult to bribe a few palace servants and guards who work for her.

Vai happened to have disappeared at the palace gate.

In any case, Princess Lingxi and Beijiang are the most suspicious.

It's just...Xu Rongrong always felt that something was wrong.

Fortunately, now that we have a direction, our inspections can be targeted.

Chu He quickly calculated in his mind... Although the Forbidden Army was not monolithic at the moment, it was not difficult for him to arrange people to keep an eye on Princess Lingxi quietly. In addition, if Lingxi kidnapped someone into the palace, he would definitely To find a secret place to hide or imprison, the idle palace gardens in the palace are also the focus of inspections by the imperial army.

In this case, there is no need to mobilize Mu Rong's city defense team.

He expressed his thoughts, and Mu Rong glanced at Xu Rongrong for a moment, then nodded and said: "In this case, I will rely on Deputy Commander Chu."

Now that an agreement had been reached, Chuhe no longer stayed long and took advantage of the night to disappear into the night again.

Looking at the direction in which he disappeared, Mu Rong said with a smile: "Chuhe is quite fond of Miss Vai."

His tone was weird, and it was hard for people not to hear what he was referring to. Xu Rongrong rolled her eyes at him: "That's natural, after all, there is really news about deserters from Miss Vai..."

Mu Rong was startled.

Looking at Xu Rongrong's half-smiling look, he knew... that he couldn't hide the excuse of looking for deserters in southern Xinjiang.

He touched his nose with a guilty conscience, and then said something else: "Does Rong Rong really suspect that the disappearance of Miss Vai is related to Northern Xinjiang?"

Xu Rongrong knew that he was deliberately changing the subject, so she didn't point it out. Instead, she asked, "What do you think, Lord Marquis?"

Mu Rong looked at her: "Just now when Chuhe guessed that Lingxi was responsible, I saw something different in your expression."

Xu Rongrong was slightly startled when she heard this. She didn't expect that her tiny moment would be noticed by Mu Rong.

She lowered her head and after thinking for a moment, she did not deny it: "Indeed, there are quite a few doubts about this matter."

Mu Rong was so busy that he said, "Rongrong, please tell me."

"First, Vai came all the way from southern Xinjiang. Although Vali did not catch up with her, he was well aware of her whereabouts. But why was there no trace of her when they arrived in the capital? What's more, Vali went to the capital with her. , Princess Lingxi’s ability alone can hide all her whereabouts?”

"Secondly... although Princess Lingxi has the opportunity to manage the relationship in the palace, she is now rejected by the queen. How can she kidnap Miss Vai and hide her in the intricate palace?"

"And the last and most important point... Vai's coming to the capital was unexpected, and even her father and brother didn't know about it in advance. Is Princess Lingxi capable of doing this in such a short period of time? "

Xu Rongrong slowly expressed his doubts.

Mu Rong nodded while listening, and finally said: "Rong Rong thought so clearly, but why didn't he stop Chuhe just now?"

Xu Rongrong still lowered his head and did not answer.

Mu Rong smiled: "Rong Rong hopes that I will not use the city defense team for the time being, so as not to expose my position and ruin the situation that I have worked hard for the third brother, right?"

After saying that, he walked over and leaned down to look at the girl in front of him: "Thank you Rong Rong for considering me."

The quiet night, the sudden approach, and the gentle words combined were even more shocking. Xu Rongrong blushed, and she subconsciously took half a step back.

He held on and said: "The Marquis is overthinking... After all, Miss Vai disappeared in front of the palace gate. This matter must be related to the people in the palace. Didn't the imperial guards guarding the door say that people came into the palace to pay homage to the queen today? Then? The person who did it may not be hiding... In the final analysis, the people in the palace are more suspicious! Chuhe stares at the palace, and even if he finds nothing from Princess Lingxi, he will definitely find other clues. "

In addition, she held back another half of her sentence: It was enough that the Mu family's army was watching outside the palace.

Mu Rong looked at the girl's red cheeks and the serious look that denied her, and said with a smile: "I don't care, Rong Rong is clearly thinking about me! With a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for!"

Xu Rongrong had seen him look so shameless recently, and for a moment she didn't know how to refute, so she could only say bitterly: "If Mr. Hou really thinks so, why bother making up stories with Chu He to deceive me!"

Mu Rong: "..."

Seeing this, Xu Rongrong took advantage of the victory and pursued him: "If Chuhe stayed in southern Xinjiang just to track down fugitives, why would he have to repeatedly tell the Wa clan to take good care of Wai... Why should a daughter of a clan leader need to be so vigilant?"

Vali kept blaming herself today for not listening to Chu He's words. She had become suspicious at that time. The conversation in the evening not only cleared up her doubts, but also made her believe that Mu Rong and Chu He were deliberately hiding something from her.

But who doesn’t have a secret anymore? She originally didn't intend to get to the bottom of it, but the man in front of her was really hateful, so don't blame her for exposing him!

Sure enough, after she finished speaking, Mu Rong stood up angrily: "Rong Rong is too worried."

"Careless? Humph! Do Lord Marquis and Chu He think I'm stupid?!"

"It's late at night. I have to go on errands tomorrow and have a good rest early..."

"Hou...Murong, stop!"
