MTL - Lucky Girl: Take the Space To Escape From the Famine-Chapter 355 first encounter
Chapter 355 The first confrontation
"Could it be that the imperial court is hoarding grain and gold and silver?"
Yin Miao suddenly thought of a possibility. What she saw and heard during this period made her feel that the imperial court seemed to have been in and out. People in the capital thought that all the materials in the national treasury were allocated to other cities, while the people in other places had been living in dire straits.
"I'm afraid not only that, the people who served in the court in the past have basically been replaced. I have asked people to check some of them. There is no problem with those people, but there is something strange."
Xiao Xuan said.
"What's so strange?" Yin Miao asked enthusiastically.
"Young, unmarried, or without any relatives at home."
This is not surprising in itself, but almost all the people replaced are of this type, and he has to pay attention.
"Could it be just a coincidence? Maybe the emperor likes to use new people or something?"
Yin Miao was watching a historical drama in which the emperor who had just ascended the throne was also carrying out drastic reforms.
"I hope so too."
Xiao Xuan said.
"But if there are too many suspects, we can analyze it slowly."
Yin Miao took out a flat wooden board out of nowhere. On the wooden board was a piece of rice paper, and she wrote on it as she spoke.
Corrupt officials, treasuries that cannot be accessed, cities that cannot get relief food, newly appointed young officials...
"And Wen Zhuoyuan."
Xiao Xuan added while looking at Yin Miao who was extremely serious.
"What could be wrong with him?"
Yin Miao asked without raising her head, Wen Zhuoyuan was a corrupt official, which was understandable to her.
"I know very well the person of Master Huiwen, the abbot of Mufa Temple, but no matter how Dali Temple tried, he kept silent about Wen Zhuoyuan. Wen Zhuoyuan may not be simple."
Xiao Xuan said.
Well, Yin Miao added Wen Zhuoyuan and Master Huiwen on the white paper, and then hung the wooden board on the wall beside and recited, "There is a problem, indeed there is a problem..."
Isn't she wearing a cool essay on the rebirth of the heroine? Why is it becoming more and more like a suspense text?
Are these masterpieces by the heroine Qi Lingxi?
"During this time, I have also been looking for clues about the battle with Beirou, but all traces have been erased."
As if that war never happened.
Xiao Xuan looked at the blank piece of paper full of doubts and said.
"Don't worry, we will definitely find a breakthrough."
Yin Miao comforted that they had just returned to Beijing not long ago, Xiao Xuan wanted to investigate the truth thoroughly, she wanted to change the ending of the story, at least it has already begun.
"Well, I'm not in a hurry."
Xiao Xuan said with a smile, if it was just him alone, I am afraid that he would not be in such a state of mind now. Because every time Yin Miao was there to help, he became more and more calm.
"You help me find a tutor tomorrow, I have never entered the palace."
Yin Miao said embarrassedly, at least she had to teach her the most basic etiquette for entering the palace.
"it is good."
Xiao Xuan agreed, but in fact he felt that even if Yin Miao did not learn the rules and etiquette, it would be fine, he would follow the whole process.
However, on that day, he still had to be temporarily separated from Yin Miao in the palace.
"King Xuan is going to go directly. Ben Gong has a good relationship with Miss Yin and will not embarrass her."
Qi Lingxi is wearing a bright red plum blossom skirt today, with delicate gold-patterned butterflies on the cuffs and cuffs. Her eyebrows are naturally gorgeous, and this dress makes her noble and dignified, but not approachable.
"That minister will go ahead and pick up the minister's fiancee later."
Xiao Xuan frowned and said that they had just arrived when the **** came to report to the emperor to summon him, and Yin Miao also winked at him, with an expression that she could handle alone. Coupled with what Queen Qi said, he had to leave temporarily.
"Go."
Queen Qi saw the distrust in King Xuan's eyes, but she didn't care.
After King Xuan left, she ordered her servants to present a forging box with golden thread sea beasts and brocade patterns, and rewarded Yin Miao.
"Bengong heard that you and His Royal Highness Xuan Wang both love jade, and specially ordered someone to find this jade hairpin, I hope Sister Yin likes it."
Queen Qi Qi Lingxi said.
After Xiao Xuan left, Yin Miao was not nervous. She took the satin box and thanked the Queen according to the rules taught by the teacher. Queen Qi also nodded in satisfaction.
"Since the Yin family has been rehabilitated, why is it that only the younger sister and a female family member returned to Beijing with King Xuan? Duke Yin is also a pillar of the country and should be used by the court."
Soon, Queen Qi cut to the point.
Yin Miao smiled, is this saying that there is something wrong with her living in the Xuanwang Mansion?
"The little girl's younger brother is still young, and her third aunt is pregnant. Shangyun City is far away from the capital, so I'm afraid there will be many inconveniences."
Yin Miao replied. When she talked about Shangyun City, Queen Qi's hand holding the tea was obviously paused.
"That's right, Ben Gong has never been to Shangyun City, how does my sister feel about it?"
Sure enough, Queen Qi began to ask about Shangyun City.
Yin Miao had been a little entangled before this. She wanted to directly tell the truth that she knew so that Qi Lingxi would wake up, but she was afraid that it would be too risky. After all, she didn't know the person in front of her at all.
"Back to the empress's words, the little girl thinks that if there is no war, it would be a good city. The current city owner used to be a general, and the city owner's wife is also the third princess. Both of them are dedicated to the people."
Yin Miao still did not reveal Qi Lingxi's true identity immediately.
"Yes, this palace once heard that the former city lord there was exterminated, but he forgot the reason."
Queen Qi lowered her eyes and said casually.
"Collaborate with Beirou and leak the information of my Nanxiao Kingdom."
Yin Miao answered bluntly. She also heard from Xiao Xuan that what the Shen family had leaked was not only the maps of the cities in Nanxiao Kingdom, but even the total number of troops stationed in various places and the routes for transporting food and grass.
Beijing is softer than Nanxiao, and it is a neighboring country that is eyeing tigers. If something like this leaks out, even if the family is wiped out, it will be difficult to offset the consequences.
"Perhaps just like what happened to King Xuan this time, it was a false misunderstanding?"
Empress Qi said something urgent, seeing Yin Miao staring at her in a daze, she also realized that something was wrong, so she took another sip of tea and said, "I mean, how could someone from the people of Nanxiao easily leak such important information. "
"Yeah, Yin Miao also thinks this matter is a bit incredible. City Lord Shen has been in office for several years, so why would he suddenly leak information, but I was fortunate enough to meet a mother-in-law who was a servant in the Shen family, and she was almost in danger. Think of me as the aunt's daughter she served."
Although Yin Miao had been standing below Queen Qi, the reaction of the person opposite was in full view. Although Qi Lingxi's expression did not change, her clenched fist revealed everything.
