If the emperor has any questions about the Jizhou case, he can directly send someone to see my brother."
"Okay, let's go."
"Hey, aren't these the eldest brother and the third child? Why did they meet here?"
Looking for the voice, a man who was somewhat familiar with the prince came over on a horse with a smile. Bei Mingqi's expression was obviously stagnant.
Chi Yan still had a smile on his face.
"Second brother, why are you here?"
"I happened to have tea with my friends here just now. I heard that King Xuan returned to the capital, so I came to the city gate to have a look. I didn't expect that my eldest brother was faster than my younger brother!"
As Bei Minghong spoke, he drove his horse slowly and slowly. When he reached Bei Mingqi's side, he cupped his fists and saluted.
Bei Mingqi returned to General Bei Minghong's army and said: "I went to the city gate to do something, and happened to meet the third child. Second child, where were you drinking tea just now? Third child, you came here just after entering the city gate.
Already."
"Hahahaha...Brother Emperor, don't I miss my third brother? As soon as I heard that my third brother was back, I immediately rushed over."
Bei Minghong changed the topic and avoided answering Bei Mingqi's words. Before Bei Mingqi could ask again, Bei Minghong turned his attention to Ling Xiye and Yun Yue who were standing aside.
"Are these two the two grandsons of the Left Prime Minister, Mr. Jiang and Miss Jiang, who recently told their father that they wanted to change their surnames?"
"Exactly." Chi Yan said to Yun Yue and Yun Yue: "Brother Ye, Yue'er, this is my second brother, His Highness Prince Hong."
After Yunyue and Ling Xiye greeted Bei Minghong, Bei Minghong also politely got off his horse to greet him, and then joked in a different way:
"It turns out that the third child didn't get anything when he went to Jizhou! At least he served as a flower protector once."
Chi Yan smiled nonchalantly and said, "Second brother, please stop teasing me. I know that my father must be disappointed in me this time."
"No. Before leaving, my father had great expectations for you, but before you arrived, all the officials in Jizhou knew that you were going to investigate the case. This secret investigation turned into an open investigation. How could there be any investigation?
What happened? My father is really disappointed this time!"
"Hey, Second Brother, how can you say that to Third Brother? Even if Third Brother wanted to secretly investigate this matter, what would he be able to find out without the cooperation of Jizhou officials? And besides Third Brother, there are so many supervisory bureaus this time.
The officials also went there, but didn't they find anything?
Facts speak louder than words, showing that there was no problem with the Jizhou Grand Canal in the first place."
"Oh, is it so?"
"What? From what I heard, I hope there is something wrong with the canal?"
"Of course not. We are all sons of our father, and this country belongs to our father. As a son, of course we hope that our father's country will be in good weather, and that the country will be peaceful and the people will be safe. How can we hope that something will happen to the Grand Canal?
It’s just that the third son went to investigate the case with such great fanfare, and he might have been able to find some unknown clues, but now he was trying to scare the snake and scare the tiger in advance, so he found nothing."
"Second brother, this is wrong. Even if it is an unannounced visit, I have brought so many officials from the Supervisory Yuan to investigate the case. I believe that within two days, the officials in Jizhou will definitely know about it.
And I think this investigation focuses on two points. First, to check the materials used in the construction of the canal to see if there is any suspicion of cutting corners. Second, to check whether the money allocated by the imperial court to Jizhou for temporary disaster relief has any signs of misappropriation.

I believe that even if we change from undercover investigation to overt investigation,
