Xiao Chengyi smiled and said: "What do you think, Your Highness King Jing?"
Yuan Shuolin felt that Xiao Chengyi was really hard to figure out, so he frowned and said, "Is it you who sent the letter to me, asking me to bring troops to help?"
He had already left Xingping County, but he received a letter on the way. The letter said that Princess Jiahe was in danger and asked him to come with his cavalry to help.
It's just that this letter was written in the name of Huihe County Princess, and it has her seal on it, so it cannot be faked.
Yuan Shuolin then returned with his troops. Unexpectedly, those who besieged the county lord and his sister turned out to be a private army that appeared out of nowhere.
This is no small matter.
And as long as he finds out the origin of this private soldier, he can make a great contribution.
Xiao Chengyi responded: "It is indeed me."
Xiao Jue and others were all shocked. They didn't expect that Xiao Chengyi had already found reinforcements. Did he already know that Chen Shijie was raising private soldiers?
Xuan Du was also surprised. He asked Xiao Chengyi: "Have you known this for a long time?"
Xiao Chengyi shrugged: "This county magistrate surnamed Yang allowed his nephew to do whatever he wanted in Xingping County, but he did not lose his official position. I was curious, so I sent someone to investigate. It happened to be that my people followed this magistrate Yang unexpectedly.
He discovered his training place.
Originally, I planned to deal with him slowly after returning to the capital, but who would have thought that he couldn't sit still and actually wanted to poison us.
He was afraid that the county magistrate would really file a complaint, and that the imperial envoy would find out something, and would definitely try his best to kill us. Since the assassination failed, he could only take his proud private
The soldiers are coming to surround us.
In order to be prepared, I sent a letter to His Highness King Jing in the name of the county lord, asking him to come back and rescue him."
Xuandu: "..."
In his previous life, he met Xiao Chengyi after he destroyed Beichen. At that time, he didn't have anyone in the world, and he didn't have so many plans in his heart. He only had the late Mu Yun'an.
Only when I met him as a young boy in this life did I realize how powerful this person really was.
The phrase "in the midst of strategizing, winning can be achieved thousands of miles away" is really the most suitable to apply to Xiao Chengyi.
Yuan Shuolin heard the key point in Xiao Chengyi's words: "You said these soldiers were trained by Yang Shijie privately. How could he, a ninth-grade county magistrate, have the manpower, material resources, and courage?"
Xiao Chengyi said: "Of course there is someone behind the scenes who is supporting him." After a pause, he added: "I would like to congratulate His Highness King Jing in advance. His Highness the Crown Prince is exhausted. I believe there will be turmoil in this court soon.
Already."
Yuan Shuo was shocked and immediately understood what Xiao Chengyi meant. He turned his head towards Xiao Chengyi and said, "Young Master Xiao's help is still needed."
He knew that it was impossible to bring down the prince with his own abilities. If Xiao Chengyi hadn't sent a letter today, he wouldn't have learned about the prince's secretly raising troops.
You must know that raising troops privately is tantamount to treason. I am afraid it will be difficult for the prince to stand up this time.
Xiao Chengyi said: "Your Majesty, you are so polite. Don't worry, Xiao will definitely help your Majesty. The most important thing right now is to go back to Xingping County to raid Yang Shijie's mansion, find evidence of his collusion with the prince, and then collect all the soldiers that Yang Shijie has trained."
Pay it off, and then bring the personal and material evidence back to the capital and present it to His Majesty."
Yuan Shuolin nodded: "Okay!"
After the agreement, everyone returned to Xingping County overnight. Because Xuandu was injured, they returned to the medical center.
Yuan Shuolin followed Xiao Chengyi's instructions and took his people to search Yang Shijie's mansion, while the others stayed at the hospital to wait for news.
