The Crown Princess is reborn and returns to subvert the world

"If you are making weapons, it would be quite interesting to run up to me and die so blatantly."

Ji Xiang looked at the two of them, "What do you think their purpose is?"

Ouyang Qingfeng couldn't tell for a moment.

Guard Li frowned, "Are these people forging weapons for the imperial court?!"

"If you didn't work for the imperial court, why were you pushed out to die?!"

"And if they were raised privately, who would push such people out to die? After all, they are all skilled people."

Jixiang said while thinking about it.

The auspicious words made Li Weiwei, Ouyang Qingfeng and others think deeply.

Jiang Peipei seemed to have figured it out, "What my cousin means is that those people are from the imperial court, but they are controlled by people with disloyal intentions, so they are used as living targets."

"Yes, and what if the court later finds out that all the craftsmen who forged weapons were killed, and it was our people who killed them..."

"At that time, the emperor can punish the princess in the name of killing the court craftsmen..."

Everyone analyzed it according to Jixiang's thinking, and they became more and more afraid to think further.

Guard Li frowned, "This man has a vicious heart. Not only does he want to harm the princess, but he also wants to involve Prince Ning's palace in it. When the time comes, Prince Ning..."

"So, we must find the real culprit behind the scenes as soon as possible!" Ji Xiang made up his mind.

"Then what are you waiting for? Go south quickly!" Jiang Peipei shouted loudly.

Everyone set off again, with extra caution.

This time Ouyang Qingfeng returned to Jixiang's carriage again, and together with Guard Li, guarded Jixiang's carriage on the left and right.

For several days in a row, there were no more interceptions on the road, and the journey went smoothly.

From this, Ji Xiang concluded that there was a royal weapons factory near the capital, and this factory was probably controlled by people from Netherworld Valley.

So Jixiang decided to talk to Lord Min again.

Master Min, who had been given heart-strengthening pills by Ji Xiang and given silver needles with strange effects, was exhausted from the itching and pain all over his body in the past two days.

Seeing Jixiang get on the carriage, he opened his tired eye and looked at Jixiang.

"What do you want to know?"

"who are you?"

"I'm not the one who harmed your Ji family."

"But it was you who ordered the murder."

"I'm just following orders."

"Then you are also an executioner."

Lord Min was silent.

After a brief silence, he spoke again, "I am Min Heming, the director of the Ministry of War."

Ji Xiang was startled, "What is your relationship with Kou Peilin?"

"He takes orders from me."

Ji Xiang figured it out now, "Then Kou Peilin lobbied the prince to marry my Ji family, was it your permission?"

"Yes."

"Why did your master do this? Why did you choose my Ji family?!"

Min Heming stared at the top of the car with his only eye, "Because your Ji family is as rich as the country."

"Hmph, is it wrong to have wealth?" Ji Xiang stabbed Min Heming's body with a needle.

Min Heming was so frightened that he shivered inexplicably.

"Don't worry, this is to make you less itchy and won't hurt you." Ji Xiang glanced at him and said, "Go on. Why do you want to harm my Ji family? Harm me and Prince Ning?"

"Because only when all the Ji family members die can the wealth belong to the prince."

"And Prince Ning, just because he was ordered to go to welcome the bride, happened to see what happened, and the master said he couldn't stay."

"Haha, haha, your master is really a devil who regards human life as nothing! Ni Xia" Jixiang shouted outside.

"Yes, Miss!" Ni Xia immediately appeared in front of Jixiang.

"Can you write?"

"I learned a few words at home."

"Well, write down everything he just said, and then ask him to put his fingerprints on it!"

"Yes, Miss!" Ni Xia said, turned and left, quickly found paper and pen, and started writing on the carriage.

Seeing that Ni Xia's handwriting was pretty good, Jixiang asked Min Heming.

"Who is in charge of the tiger army in Netherworld Valley?"

Min Heming was startled and looked at Ji Xiang in surprise.

"Say!"

"How did Miss Jixiang know about the Tiger Army?"

Jixiang took out two tiger charms from his sleeves, "How do you think I know?"

Min Heming was stunned. He suddenly stood up and was about to kneel down to Ji Xiang, "I pay my respects to the general!"

It was Ji Xiang's turn to be confused, "Are you from the Tiger Army?"

"Yes, I would like to ask Min Heming of the Tiger Army to pay his respects to the general!"

Ji Xiang weighed it in his mind. It seemed that Min Heming recognized the tiger talisman. Since he thought the tiger talisman in his hand was real, why not just make a mistake and face the general first?

"I'm not your general, I just have the Tiger Talisman in my hand."

"The tiger talisman is the military talisman of the Tiger Army. Whoever holds the military talisman is our general!"

"But, I just have this tiger talisman, I just..."

Ji Xiang deliberately hesitated to see Min Heming's reaction.

I was relieved to see that he didn't have any disrespect towards her just because she was a young woman, but that from the beginning to the end, he only looked after her.

"I can tell you the truth. These two tiger charms were given to me by two people. As for who these two people are, of course, I can't tell you."

Jixiang said.

"My subordinate understands!"

"Okay, since you regard me as your general, then tell me everything about the situation in Netherworld Valley."

Min Heming talked for two hours before giving an overview of the Tiger Army's situation.

It turns out that the late emperor planned to build the Tiger Army to prevent anyone from being disobedient.

But just as preparations were being made, the prince suddenly forced his way into the palace. The late emperor was suddenly deprived of the throne and placed under house arrest in the palace, losing contact with the Tiger Army.

Although Emperor Likang later deposed the second prince who had seized the throne, the late emperor fell ill in bed due to successive attacks and never sent anyone to contact the Tiger Army again.

At that time, the late emperor gave half of the Tiger Talisman to the general of the Tiger Army, saying that only those who hold the other half of the Tiger Talisman in the future can mobilize the Tiger Army. Otherwise, they can only lie dormant forever.

But the man who owned the other half of the tiger talisman never showed up, so the general had no choice but to divide the 10,000-man tiger army into two and lurk until the day he was activated by the new emperor.

However, this wait lasted more than ten years.

"Then the person who communicated with you in Prince Duan's Mansion is your general?!" Jixiang asked.

Min Heming shook his head, "This subordinate doesn't know."

"Then why do you take orders from him?"

"Because that person is responsible for the pay of all our soldiers. It has been this way for more than ten years."

Ji Xiang was startled, "The people in Prince Duan's Mansion have raised the Tiger Army for more than ten years?!"

"Isn't this person King Duan? After all, he can provide the soldiers with five thousand troops, so he is not an ordinary person at all."

Min Heming shook his head again, "That man never said he was Prince Duan."

"Okay, I will figure this out later. Let me ask you again, is there a place near the capital where royal weapons are forged?"

Min Heming was startled, "How did the general know?"

"What do you think?" Ji Xiang stared at Min Heming.

"Which forge has been taken over by our people."

"Who is in charge?" Jixiang asked urgently.

"Qi Yue, the third young master of the Qi family."

Ji Xiang was stunned.
