"Your Highness the Crown Prince, all your subordinates are here to return their orders!"

"Get up! Tell me, how did this action go?"

"Reporting to Your Highness, my subordinates are incompetent and have not been able to find out any information about the other party!" Jiang Shan knelt down on one knee and lowered his head.

"What? You can't even find out whether Liu Zhongqing has any contact with the Huns?" The prince's face suddenly turned ugly: "Then what's the use of raising you?"

When Jiang Shan heard the murderous intent and disappointment revealed in the prince's words, his heart trembled slightly, and he immediately knelt down on one knee again.

He knew very well what kind of irritable and irritable person the prince in front of him was, and he also knew that his life was now in the hands of the prince. If he made the prince angry, he was afraid that his life would be wiped out in an instant.

Thinking of this, cold sweat broke out on Jiang Shan's forehead, and he quickly explained: "Prince, forgive me."

"But the official found out that the second prince had visited Liu Zhongqing in person. Although our people could not follow up with the Liu Mansion. But when the second prince came out of the Liu Mansion, he looked very excited. Some kind of deal should have been negotiated...

…So I guess that the second prince may have joined forces with Liu Zhongqing.”

"Join forces? Huh! How ridiculous! A bunch of losers!"

The prince shouted coldly: "If we continue to investigate, we will inevitably find out his relationship with the Huns."

Although Su Zhaoyang's death was caused by the second prince Li Yuntian.

Li Yunxing also knew that Liu Zhongqing was absolutely inseparable from the Huns.

He must prepare in advance for what may happen next.

"Yes! I will do my best to investigate this matter and get to the bottom of it!"

"Well, I came to see you today, and I have a few more things to ask you to take care of." The prince slowly stood up, walked to the table and sat down.

"Please give me the prince's instructions." Jiang Shan stood respectfully behind the prince, waiting for the prince's instructions.

"Is there any news from Jiang Chang?" the prince raised his eyes and asked.

"Prince Qi, according to Jiang Chang, Shu Qingling's fleet is already on its way back. In order to pretend to be fully loaded with cargo, it deliberately stayed for a few days. Now the return speed is also slower, and it is expected to take another month.

Return to the capital."

Li Yunxing tapped his fingers on the table. Jiang Chang had been sent by Li Yunxing to set off with Shu Qingling's fleet.

According to Li Yunxing's plan, this fleet incident is also an opportunity to take back the transportation rights of the river to avoid long nights and dreams.

"Well, just write to them and ask them to pay attention. The other party will soon find an opportunity to take action."

"Yes!" Jiang Shan nodded and accepted the order.

Jiang Shan frowned slightly and said with a slight hesitation: "Prince, there has been no movement from the other party. Could it be that they noticed something strange and gave up?"

"Ha! Give up?" Li Yunxing sneered and shook his head: "Then you underestimate Liu Zhongqing's courage and courage! There is no way he will give up."

"Even if he knew it was a trap set by me, he would still jump into it."

"Because he understands better than anyone else that even if there is a one in 10,000 chance that I will send a large amount of food and grass back to the capital, it will be a huge failure for him."

"The last thing Liu Zhongqing wants to see now is that my palace's grain and grass arrive in the capital safely and soundly! Once the grain and grass arrive, Jingzhou's flood crisis can be solved, and it will be difficult for Liu Zhongqing to try to leverage my throne."

Jiang Shan suddenly realized that the prince had already understood everything.

In this case, why did the prince go through all the trouble to let Shu Qingling transport grain and grass back to Beijing in the name of a private fleet?

Isn't this unnecessary?

Seeing Jiang Shan's silence, Li Yunxing seemed to see through Jiang Shan's thoughts and smiled coldly: "Jiang Chang, Jiang Chang, you are indeed not smart enough!"

"This subordinate is stupid! I hope the prince will make it clear!" Jiang Shan bowed and clasped his fists.

Li Yunxing said calmly: "If I transport the grain back to the capital, I am afraid that the old diehards in the court will try their best to divide this batch of food and grass. After all, who doesn't want to eat alone? How can I tolerate this happening? Therefore, in order to avoid this kind of thing,

If something happens, the only way is to hide this batch of food and grass first."

"Only by keeping this batch of food and grass hidden in the dark will those old guys dare not easily take advantage of it."

"This subordinate is stupid and really doesn't understand the prince's good intentions." Jiang Shan sighed and said respectfully.

Li Yunxing waved his hand, "It doesn't matter. You were eagle dogs raised by the emperor before. You have only a few abilities, but you don't know how big the world is. There are people outside the world, so I am willing to spend a lot of energy to train you! I hope you will not let me

disappointment!"

"Yes! I will definitely work hard and die to repay the prince for his kindness!" Jiang Shan quickly expressed his loyalty.

Li Yunxing nodded and did not reply.

No one is born with it, and not all of them are sincerely convinced when it is handed over to them.

Even now, Li Yunxing has not seen Jiang He. He is still staying in Yangzhou, taking over the granary and monitoring Liu Chen's movements.

"What about the rebellion against bandits in Jingzhou? How was the investigation?" Li Yunxing asked instead.

Jiang Shan cupped his hands and replied: "There are nearly a thousand rebels in Jingzhou, many of whom are rural soldiers. Their leader is named Mou Linhan. He used to be the head catcher of the yamen. After the flood, he led his generals to kill the county magistrate and seize the land."

He took power and established an organization called Qingfeng Village."

"Oh? Head catcher?" Li Yunxing sneered. He didn't know that a mere head catcher could have such ambitions.

"This person is definitely not as simple as a head hunter. Go! Look up the life history of Mou Linhan. The more detailed the better."

"I obey the order!" Jiang Shan retreated.

Li Yunxing looked out the window with distant eyes and murmured: "Mo Linhan...this is a fresh name."

After Jiang Shan left, Jin Xi came in from outside the hospital and brought new news to Li Yunxing.

"His Royal Highness, Princess Chunshan will return to the palace tomorrow. According to the etiquette of the Wu Dynasty, you will attend Princess Chunshan's reception dinner tomorrow."

Li Yunxing had forgotten about Princess Chunshan.

Princess Chunshan, formerly known as Li Zhipan, is the sibling of the same mother as the second prince.

Three years ago, after their biological mother passed away, in order not to delay Li Yuntian's future, Li Zhipan took the initiative to request Emperor Wu, willing to observe mourning for his mother and concubine for three years.

Although Emperor Wu couldn't bear that Li Zhipan, who was only sixteen years old, guarded the imperial mausoleum alone and endured three years of loneliness.

What's more, she is already past her prime, which is the time when she should consider getting married.

But Li Zhipan was very filial to his mother and concubine, and was willing to stay filial piety for her for three years in return for the kindness of raising her. In the end, Emperor Wu couldn't resist her and agreed.

He even named her Princess Chunshan, which meant to praise her good character of being pure and kind.
