Chapter 24 Discovering the secret and being assassinated along the way

Xiao Yunyan secretly thought, when they arrived at the border, everyone performed their duties. If they were not working in the same place, why would he sleep in his own bed every day?

The couple hugged each other and slept for another hour.

The maids and maids who were waiting outside carried hot water and toiletries into the bathroom of the princess's bedroom. They helped them wash up and put on the light clothes they wore during the march.

Finish your breakfast. The two rode horses and bridles to the west city gate and met the grain and grass carts waiting there. Let’s head towards Qiangrong together.

The escort officer of the grain and grass truck is a very experienced veteran. Very familiar with this road. Therefore, we arranged for tours and hotels along the way, which was very thoughtful.

Both Xiao Yunyan and Li Mohan were particularly satisfied with the escort officer named Zhang Mingyi. Therefore, he is also very generous. When eating on the road, I would ask him to join me.

Zhang Yi is also a real person. During the chat, Li Mohan and Xiao Yunyan asked whether there was any situation where food was withheld or transferred.

Zhang Yi hesitated for a long time, then gritted his teeth and told the truth. In the past, when transporting grain to the border, grain and grass would be exchanged.

The grain transported to the border is old grain with some sand added.

The good grain that was exchanged was sold to grain merchants by Shangguan, or sold in their own grain shops.

Li Mohan was so angry that his eyebrows stood up. Ask him, who ordered it? At what stage did you do such evil things?

Zhang Yi said that more than one person was involved in this matter. Grain is allocated from the household department, and when it comes out of various grain depots, someone will replace the grain with old grain mixed with sand.

What they got from escorting the convoy was these tampered old grains. Even if what is shipped to the border is new grain. After a day of inspection, it will still become old grain mixed with sand.

Li Mohan believed that his father-in-law, the Minister of Household Affairs, could not instruct his subordinates to do such bad things that would harm the country and the people.

If soldiers don't have enough to eat, how can they have the physical strength to defend the frontier?

However, didn't the border generals submit a statement to report the situation? Why does this kind of thing always exist and no one cares about it?

Li Mohan was appointed by his father to be a small official to inspect the quality of grain, and he was also secretly given a sign that symbolized "I am here in person". Did he want him to conduct an on-the-spot investigation and verify the situation?

Li Mohan sent secret guards to immediately go to his father-in-law Xiao Siheng, the Minister of Household Affairs, to verify the matter. Find out if the culprit is an internal official from the Ministry of Household Affairs? Or are other forces involved?

Xiao Siheng immediately sent his eldest son, Xiao Yunhan, the Minister of Household Affairs, to investigate the matter. He was told to investigate secretly and not to alert others.

Li Mohan and Xiao Yunyan continued on their way. They randomly checked the grain on the grain trucks. They are all two or three years old grain. One pound of rice, half two ounces of sand.

According to Zhang Yi, the rice this time is of the best quality among the rice that has been transported to the border. The beige color is relatively uniform, slightly yellowish, and the sand is much less mixed.

Li Mohan's teeth itched with hatred. He secretly vowed to make these heartless people pay a heavy price.

On the surface, he still looked calm and calm. Li Mohan has always been unsmiling, aloof and arrogant in front of outsiders. Only those who are close to him know that he is very easy-going towards his relatives.

Li Mohan calmly followed the convoy, but his personal bodyguard was extremely busy.

They started from ten miles outside the city gate, and now they are more than six hundred miles away, and they have been attacked by twelve groups of assassins.

They fight against killers from all sides to attack and plot against princes and princesses every day. Every secret guard is under great pressure.

Xiao Yunyan heard them report the situation to Li Mohan. As the top agent and special talent of the Dragon Kingdom, she understands the arduous tasks of these secret guards.

Xiao Yunyan gave each secret guard a bottle of antidote, and three bottles of Ruanjin San that could be poured within five meters. This is the ancestral secret recipe from her previous life. She always takes it with her when she goes on missions.

This time, she fully equipped the twenty secret guards. Tell them, don’t be stingy. If you encounter a killer you can't deal with, just knock him down. If you can catch him alive without any effort, that's the best result.

Later, the secret guards showed great respect to the princess. The princess not only has superb medical skills, but also has great poison skills. That powder is so useful.

The twenty secret guards are divided into four tribes: Tian, ​​Di, Yuan and Huang. Five people per unit.

When Xuan Si and Xuan Wu were standing watch in the distance, they happened to be at the top of a tree. A group of men in black below were resting and eating under the tree.

The two of them saw that the twelve men in black would not be able to leave for a while, so the two of them listened quietly. What did they say?

The news I heard was that they were the fourth group of killers sent by the eldest prince. The mission goal is to kill the fourth prince, Prince Duanjing and his wife. After he succeeded, he put the blame on the second prince's party.

They arranged the mission and talked about it with great enthusiasm. Suddenly I felt weak all over. The leader yelled something bad and was ambushed.

Plop, plop... the men in black fell down one after another. Before he could bite the poisonous sac hidden in his mouth, he also lost the ability to freely control his facial muscles.

After a cup of tea, Xuan Si and Xuan Wu jumped down from the tree and tied up the hands and feet of the killers with their belts. Another flare was set off.

The secret guards captured these twelve people alive. After some torture, getting a confession is the content of their mission this time. There isn't much other useful information.

I just know that the eldest prince owns many properties. Although the palace was stolen this time, it is only a small part of the eldest prince's wealth.

Ask them where the eldest prince's money is hidden. They said that even if they were beaten to death, they would still not be able to answer. They are just killers, not the eldest prince's secret guards. His status is not high and he does not have access to such confidential information.

These twelve people were very lethargic. If they were caught, they had no hope of leaving alive. They were first fed an antidote. After regaining his strength, he bites hard to break the poison sac hidden in his molar teeth.

However, the people who guarded them did not stop them from committing suicide. After waiting for a long time, the pain was not as unbearable as imagined, and he died suddenly.

The twelve people looked at each other. Could it be that the poison sac was fake?

They learned from the guards that the antidote they took could also detoxify the poison sac.

The twelve people were suddenly relieved. Sooner or later, he will die, and his family and friends need not worry about him. They have never had the right to control their own destiny. Nowadays, there is no need to worry about whether to die sooner or later.

Li Mohan and Xiao Yunyan heard the secret guard's report about catching a group of killers.

The secret guards emphatically praised the princess's medicinal powder for being so useful. Not only did he save two secret guards, Xuan Si and Xuan Wu, he also made them perform meritorious service and captured a group of killers.

In the future, when performing tasks, the auxiliary effect of poison will inevitably lead to twice the result with half the effort and higher safety!

Xiao Yunyan and Li Mohan have some thoughts on this team of killers. If we let them go, not only will they not be saved, but they will also be killed directly.

Even if the Grand Prince's Party can keep them, that is, sending some support back to the Grand Prince's Party is not what they want.

Since they have high martial arts skills and are good at killing people. It would be better to instigate them to rebel. Absorb them into your own team and send them to the border.

In doing so, they can not only give full play to their specialties, protect their homeland and make contributions, but also give them the opportunity to be upright and true heroes.

If you hang around with those hypocrites and scoundrels of the Grand Prince Party, you will lose your life and be infamy for the rest of your life.

What is right and wrong, and where to go, they should be able to make the right choice.

If there are those who don't open their eyes, they would rather die than repent. Then give him medicine to destroy his past memories and teach them to live a new life.

The couple discussed this idea and waited for the killers to lose their energy and arrogance before doing ideological work.
