Forced to be a third person: I turned around and left the palace to marry a villain

Jing Ye raised his lips and smiled, and asked: "Then your Highness must first tell Gu, what does the person who borrows Gu do?"

Jiang Xuedao: "If, as the prince said in his letter, Gu Lintan is really the orphan of the Chao family, then the best way to find out the truth about his identity is to start with the people closest to him."

"Today I have entered the palace to present my mother to you. To show my filial piety, I want to take Gu Lintan's mother to live in the capital."

"In order to avoid Gu Lintan's direct involvement in picking up people, this team of people will be sent directly from the palace."

"I have explained to my mother that I hope to add a few more people from my Gu family to take care of this 'Mrs. Gu', but - I really don't have any extra confidants under me now, and even if I have one, they are not that well-trained. vegetarian."

"So, I hope the prince can give me a few people to place in the team for spying purposes."

After Jiang Xue said that, she looked at Jing Ye who was silent at the side.

Jiang Xue hurriedly added: "It concerns Gu Lintan, and I think the prince definitely doesn't want to..."

Jing Ye nodded and said, "I know, when will we set off?"

Jiang Xue was a little surprised, she didn't expect him to agree so readily.

"No later than tomorrow morning, Your Majesty must quietly send people to Wen Qingxuan. I will make my own arrangements then. I need at least two women among them."

Jing Ye said: "I know, I will give him to you tomorrow."

Jiang Xue heard this and said suspiciously: "Does the prince trust me so much? Why don't you just ask a few questions?"

"Then how come the princess trusts Gu so much?" Jing Ye mocked, "How do you know that Gu will agree? And how do you know that Gu will give you his life without some other plan?"

Jiang Xue lowered her eyebrows. For some reason, she had been wary of Jing Ye many times, but at every important moment, she had an inexplicable instinct to trust him.

Maybe it's because he is indeed the best ally right now.

Jiang Xue raised her eyes, looked at Jing Ye, suddenly smiled and said, "I have the closest interest relationship with the prince, don't I?"

Whether Jing Ye wants to find out what happened to Xiao Qi back then, or wants to find out the rebels of Qian Kingdom, or he has other purposes - but at least at this moment, Jing Ye needs her, needs her status as a princess, needs her to come Deal with Gu Lintan.

"If the princess had other options, she would never come to Xungu to find a Qianguo person as a helper."

"Since the princess has come here to find Gu, Gu Lintan's matter will also be investigated. So why does it matter if Gu sells the princess a favor?"

"The princess really set up a trap to lure me into trouble. Firstly, I will benefit from finding out the matter; secondly, the princess doesn't seem to have the ability yet."

Jing Ye said coldly: "So there is no need to interfere with Gu. If the princess really wants to be promoted and get rich and kill her husband, she can only cooperate with Gu."

Jiang Xue picked up the tea cup with a smile and said: "Then I will substitute tea for wine. Thank you for your help, Your Majesty."

Jing Ye just snorted softly.

"Gu saw what you asked Ji Yan to give to Gu."

Jiang Xue asked: "Does the prince have any ideas?"

"I have secretly inquired about the details of this grain store. It has been open for some years, but I have only been in contact with this caravan for a few months."

"And in the past few months, there have only been two visits." Jing Ye said solemnly, "If anyone really wants to take this opportunity and use the way of Ji State to transport troops and horses to Qian State, they can just use a caravan. How much can it transport?”

Jiang Xue nodded and said, "So I think there are two possibilities."

When Jing Ye saw her opening her mouth, he stopped talking. He looked at her with interest, raised his chin, and motioned for her to continue.

Jiang Xue said: "First, if the matter of transporting troops and horses is established, there will definitely be more than one trading house."

"Assuming that the people in the trading house are completely unaware that Beixi's soldiers and horses are their own way to sneak into the caravan, or disguise themselves as caravans to trade with Daji and Qian Kingdom, then there should be thousands of such caravans. Ten thousand, countless.”

"If this assumption is true, then it means that there are already people in North Korea, China and the border who are colluding with Bei Xi, so that many joints can be opened up and people can be released."

"But if the mastermind behind this is so knowledgeable, then we shouldn't just use this method to figure it out now."

"My father is in the prime of life, and my brother is also in strong health."

"Right now, my grandfather is not in court because he is ill, and my father is eager to cultivate the power of the heir apparent. This is because there is no prince in charge in the north, and there is no reliable successor in the inner court."

"If this person wastes this time to win over Qian Guo, by the time Qian Guo changes his position, my imperial brother will be full-fledged. Besides, my imperial brother has been at the border for three years, so he must have many confidants buried in the army."

"If the imperial brother secures his seat in the court, he will be free to organize the military affairs in the north. At that time, my father will be left in the court to protect the emperor, and he will be able to go to the north to do things. The court With a strong monarch, the northern territory is sure to be defended - by then, contacting Beixi and the rebels of Qian State to carve up the country of Hebei will be far less successful than the current rebellion."

"So, if they really have the ability to go down to the yamen of various states and communicate with Beixi outside, why would they bother to seek far away from the near? Wouldn't it be better to just open the border gate in one fell swoop, let Beixi go south, capture the country of Hebei, and then carve it up with it? It's still a crime. At this time, do you want to put down your dignity and seek cooperation with the traitors of Qian Kingdom?"

Jing Ye just stared at Jiang Xue, with a complicated look in his eyes as he listened to her eloquent analysis.

Jiang Xue is still as smart as ever.

Jiang Xue talked a lot and felt a little thirsty. She lowered her eyebrows and saw that her tea cup had been filled without knowing when, so she picked it up and drank it in one gulp.

"What does the prince think?" Jiang Xue asked hurriedly when she saw Jing Ye didn't speak.

"Well," Jing Ye said in a deep voice, "What about the second possibility?"

Jiang Xue smacked her lips, spoke in a low voice, and asked a little tentatively: "Does Your Majesty think this view of mine is correct?"

Jing Ye reached out to pick up the teapot, refilled her cup with tea, and said calmly: "The princess is talented and intelligent, why should I be alone to confirm it. Keep talking."

Jiang Xue didn't know if it was the candlelight in the room that was dimming, or whether it was because she was dazzled.

She seemed to catch something from Jing Ye's eyes under the mask...

A happy smile?

She shuddered, put aside her thoughts, and continued:

"The second possibility is that since there are people in the Qian Dynasty who buy soldiers and horses, there are people in the Ji Dynasty who are pimps, and there are people in Beixi who are sellers - then," Jiang Xue smiled slyly and said, "the pimps and buyers must first Let’s inspect the goods.”

"If this grain store was just an ordinary grain store, I might not have thought of coming here. However, this grain store has business dealings with Gu Lintan's old butler Huang Fu."

"The Gu family used to buy food mostly in the north of the city, but there were always times when Huang Fu would go far away from the nearby and take a detour to the south of the city."

Jiang Xue stood up, took out another booklet from her makeup basket, and handed it to Jing Ye.
