After the death escape, I became the white moonlight of the crazy tyrant

Chapter 198 There is a beautiful person, my heart is thinking about

Fortunately, her guess was correct.

——The problem lies with the doctor’s mother.

Not only was his mother from the Li family, but she was also the biological sister of Prince Jia's mother. Although she was a concubine's sister, according to investigations, Prince Jia's mother had taken good care of this sister.

She married and moved to the capital, and also found a stable family for her sister. Unfortunately, her family fell into poverty and gradually lost its reputation.

Although there was turmoil in the capital at that time, there was absolutely no reason to implicate a daughter who had married out, so she lived a low-key life.

Later, her son entered the court as an official. After so many years of doing nothing wrong, he barely managed to get the position of a doctor in the Ministry of War. If it weren't for this incident, probably no one would ever discover the connection behind it.

The officials themselves might attract attention when entering and leaving the capital, but their relatives would not. The first time the news was discovered was when the doctor's mother went out to worship Buddha.

The doctor's surname was Luo. Although he was not very tactful and did not know how to adapt to circumstances, he was practical and hard-working, and his superiors worked very well with him. According to the Minister of War, he had originally planned to ask for some reward for him during the New Year, but now it seemed that there was no chance.

Wen Hemian held the intercepted message in his hand, his eyes changing from bright to dark.

The subordinate asked her, "Sir, are we going to arrest this traitor now?"

With the evidence in hand, and Wen Hemian now in charge of the power, there is no need to make another trip to the Ministry of Justice.

"No rush." ​​Wen Hemian thought for a moment and made a decision, "Continue to spread the false news, saying that the treasury is empty. I am currently looking for someone to fill the hole. Let them waste time first."

It is not a good thing to have the battle line stretched out, because it is to make the other side think that they do not have enough support behind them, thus becoming arrogant, and they can then achieve a surprise victory.

Let the news get out first. Whether people believe it or not is another matter. It is also good to confuse people.

"Also, have someone keep a close eye on their entire family, including the servants. It would be best if someone could go in and investigate to see if there are any secret passages or anything like that in their house."

After hearing this, the subordinate accepted the order and said, "Yes."

This was not enough, and Wen Hemian called the Minister of War for a secret talk.

After hearing that one of his men had betrayed him, and then finding out who the traitor was, Wu Zongding was deeply distressed: "I was thinking of asking for a reward for him, but I didn't expect that he was actually a traitor. I asked myself, have I treated him well..."

“It’s hard for anyone to predict this.”

Wen Hemian skimmed the foam in the tea bowl and drank some in small sips. She pursed her lips and said, "But Sir Wu, you have to watch the things in your hands carefully from now on."

"In the final analysis, it is because I did not govern my subordinates strictly. When the matter is resolved and Your Majesty returns to the court, I will apologize to Your Majesty."

Wu Zongding is a very principled man.

Wen Hemian called him here, but she actually had no intention of pursuing the matter. Seeing the other party's determined look, she opened her lips and sighed: "Let's talk about it later."

The relationships in the court are all complicated. Wu Zongding had his own considerations in doing this. Otherwise, the subordinates would take advantage of the protection of their superiors to bully others and bring bad influence.

The two didn't talk for too long as they both had their own things to deal with.

Although he caught one person, Wen Hemian did not let down his guard, as he was worried that it was just a cover and there was someone behind it.

But there is no clue at the moment.

A few days later, when Wen Hemian was about to rest after a busy day, he finally received a battle report.

There were two pieces of paper in the envelope. As Wen Hemian carefully took them out, a dried flower slipped out with her movements. Fortunately, she reacted quickly and reached out to catch it.

Wen Hemian recognized this flower. It was a specialty of the north. It only grew at the turn of autumn and winter. It bloomed in the frost and had a faint fragrance, even when it dried.

I don’t know what Xie Lang is trying to do by sneaking in his own stuff.

She carefully put down the well-preserved dried flower and looked at the two pieces of paper.

The words on both pieces of paper were written by His Majesty the Emperor himself.

The first one was a battle report, which was concise and to the point, saying that he had led his troops to drive out the barbarians who had entered Prince Jia's fiefdom. In addition, the border defenses were solid, and everything was fine with her parents. The result was good, but there was no process.

And the other one...

It is obvious that it was written exclusively to Wen Hemian.

Wen Hemian was busy all the time in the capital, and so was Xie Lang on the battlefield, so only a few lines were written on this letter:

During the march, I passed by a cliff and happened to see this flower. I heard from the people that this flower expresses lovesickness, so I put it in the letter for you to see.

The scenery in the north is very beautiful, but not as good as that in the capital. There is a beautiful person whom I miss in my heart, thinking about day and night, and longing for.

The flowers are indeed very fragrant. When I touched them just now, it felt as if my fingertips were also stained with the fragrance, which lingered for a long time.

Wen Hemian read the letter carefully several times, and couldn't help but pick up the dried flowers again and sniff them.

I don’t know how long Xie Lang has kept this flower on his body. In addition to the subtle fragrance of the flower after it has dried, there seems to be a familiar, almost imperceptible scent that belongs to Xie Lang.

Before this, she actually didn't realize that being surrounded by Xie Lang's aura made her feel steady and at ease.

It is true that separation can make people see some things clearly. Fortunately, it is not too late to realize it now.

She read the letter full of longing, and her eyes softened.

After a while, he gently held the flower, placed it on his chest, and silently said, "I hope you will be safe..."

A cold wind blew outside the window, and tiny snowflakes were mixed in and fell down. At the same time, Xie Lang stopped his horse and felt the cool touch of the snow on his nose.

He touched it and felt a little bit of damp water vapor.

Someone among the soldiers shouted: "It's snowing!"

Zhou Ting rode up to the emperor's side and asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, should we continue to move forward?"

Xie Lang glanced around, raised his hand, and ordered in a calm voice: "Set up camp here and rest first."

Prince Jia deliberately let the barbarians into his fiefdom, but he himself hid in his mansion and refused to come out. During these few days, many people were harmed. Fortunately, the generals under Prince Huailing led people to stop the situation, so it did not develop to an even more uncontrollable level.

They are not far from Prince Jia's mansion now. If they rest here for a night, they will arrive before noon tomorrow if nothing goes wrong.

"Since Prince Jia has evil intentions, could it be that he has already set an ambush?"

"After all, they haven't rebelled openly yet. If Your Majesty goes there in person, it won't cause a quarrel now, right?"

"You're not afraid of a falling out. It's just right to catch the leader first. If you catch him, why are you afraid that those people below won't obey you?"

"Just in time, I haven't had a chance to test the power of the musket yet! I must blow them to pieces!"

Most of Xie Lang's confidants came from Feihong Camp.

They had traveled a lot and this was their first time on the battlefield. They were naturally excited and their eyes were shining. It was obvious that they couldn't wait to meet Prince Jia.
