MTL - The Salty Little Cannon Fodder Was Targeted By the Prince-Chapter 588 The prince is about to leave
Chapter 588 The prince is about to travel far away
There were only two brothers and sisters in the royal study.
Even the palace attendants waiting on the side were turned away by Du Qian.
“Sister, brother wants to discuss something with you.” Du Qian whispered.
Du Wan was drinking a bowl of iced juice, "What's the matter? Just tell me."
“Do you remember the rebels hiding in the mountains in the north?”
"Remember, the court hasn't dealt with it yet?" Du Wan certainly remembered the rebels there. She was in a bad mood at the time, and those people bumped into her. She didn't kill anyone, but maimed a lot of them. "I thought My uncle has already sent someone to solve it."
Du Qian said helplessly: "The rebels are hiding in the mountains. It will be difficult to encircle and suppress them."
“Then cut off their food supply first and force them to leave the mountains on their own. There should also be someone in the village in the mountains who is their spy.”
“This big brother knows it and arranged for someone to find out earlier.”
After a period of verification, we have found out that the person behind the rebellion is named Fang, and General Wei’s first wife’s surname is Fang. This rebel leader is the brother-in-law of General Wei, and is said to be a man of both literary and military ability. The Fang family has a big business, mainly running gambling houses, brothels, and human trafficking, and has made a lot of shady money.
Du Qian added: "Part of the money earned by the Fang family was sent to the northwest, and part of it was purchased for grain and grass and secretly transported to the north. I suspect that there may be an iron mine in that mountain. This is what I got from that group of people." It was guessed on the weapon. But when we sent people to check, it was not found yet, and it was hidden very deep."
"The Wei family wants to rebel. It seems that it will not happen in a day or two." Du Wan did not expect this.
Du Qian smiled lightly, "Then what do you think?"
"I thought the Wei family was forced to rebel. Qin Yuyu was able to punish Wei Xiu to a point where life was worse than death. In the end, Wei Xiu died anyway, in the hands of the royal family. According to the love of the Wei family for Wei Xiu, no What a weird thing to do.”
“Why don’t you think about why Wei Xiu can live so arrogantly in the northwest?”
“The Wei family has already controlled the northwest?”
“Guessed it right.” Du Qian smiled, “But there is no reward.”
Du Wan smiled angrily, "Do you have a reward that I can appreciate? Okay, okay, tell me what you want to discuss with me?"
"...Ahem." Du Qianqing coughed twice, "I just want to tell you that I want to send someone to the north to deal with this matter, and the sooner the better. My sister cannot leave Beijing for the time being, so I think…"
Du Wan crossed her arms and stared at him, waiting for him to continue.
Under his sister's urgent gaze, Du Qian bit the bullet and said, "I have thought twice about sending Pei Chengming there. He is the only one who is qualified to do this, but there is a certain degree of danger."
"More than dangerous? If there may be iron ore according to your guess, then in addition to digging iron ore, there will most likely be a weapons workshop. Would such an important place not be heavily guarded?" Du Wan said with a calm face. , I was not happy to think that Pei Hao was going to take risks.
Du Qian knew it was a bit dangerous, so he discussed it with his sister.
The situation in the north cannot be delayed any longer.
Du Wan thought from another angle, "Brother, how about I go to the northwest."
“If you want to capture the thief, capture the king first?”
“It’s a battle between two armies, and the leader must be killed first.”
“…” He is still not as cruel as his sister’s thoughts.
Of course Du Qian knew that his sister had a good idea, "The question is, do you dare to leave the capital? You must be in charge of the situation in the capital. Who knows if the people behind the scenes who want to kill us will really disappear."
“…” When Du Wan left Beijing to kill people before, he always hid his whereabouts and left Beijing in disguise.
But he won’t be away for a long time. He will show up in front of people in two or three days at most. She was not the one who eliminated the assassin organization. She only eliminated the killer headquarters, branches, training camps, etc. It was all done by a group of strong men in the clan.
The northwest is too far away from the capital, and it would take months to go back and forth.
The reason Du Wan didn't dare to leave Beijing rashly was also because of his family.
The people who assassinated them behind were getting stronger and stronger in martial arts, and they were using all kinds of conspiracy and tricks. One time, Du Qian almost died, if she hadn't arrived just in time.
Du Qian added: "Sister, don't worry too much about Pei Hao's safety. The Pei family is not as weak as you think."
“Oh? Is there any secret that I don’t know?”
“After all, it is a well-established family and has trained many secret guards.”
"Okay, you discuss it with him. If he doesn't want to go, you can't force him."
"Okay, I don't want anything to happen to him." If Du Qian had no other choice, he would not let Pei Hao leave the capital at this time.
To deal with the problems in the north, you must have someone who is trustworthy and can control the overall situation, and preferably someone who has the ability to protect himself. After much thought, he still felt that Pei Hao was the most suitable.
At the same time, Du Qian decided to arrange for Mu Si'an to help Pei Hao.
The two cousins grew up together and have a good tacit understanding. They will definitely get twice the result with half the effort when doing things.
When Pei Hao was called over, not surprisingly he agreed.
When he saw the unhappy look on the little girl's face, he knew that she was worried about him. Pei Hao couldn't help but feel sweet in his heart, and pinched her cheek affectionately, "Wanwan, I want to go. Don't worry, in order not to let If you are worried, I will protect myself."
“Do you really want to go?”
“Yeah.” Pei Hao definitely nodded, his eyes particularly bright.
What Du Wan can understand, Du Qian also understands.
Men like to take risks, like to be challenged, and want to do something great.
In the past, Pei Hao acted as he pleased and was not enthusiastic about court affairs because the situation did not allow it. Now the situation in the Qin Kingdom is getting better day by day. It is rare for the court to be clear and bright, and he sees scenes that have never been seen before. Just like a once decayed tree, it has regained its vitality. He also wanted to do something great.
Now that there is someone who needs his help, he will naturally not refuse.
Mu Si'an, who had received the order secretly, was stunned.
Escaped to suppress the bandits, but did not escape to clean up the rebels?
Mu Si'an was happy again when he learned that Pei Hao was also going.
He felt a little sympathy for this cousin. On the second day of the wedding, something happened. Then, on the third day, he had to be busy with other things. Everyone was extremely busy, and he had to face various assassinations, not to mention the sweet conversation between the young couple. It's love. It took a few days to calm down, but he was sent to the north again?
Mu Si'an rushed to the Duke's Mansion and met Pei Hao.
Pei Hao noticed the schadenfreude in his eyes and asked, "Are you ready for coming here?"
"Not yet, I just received the secret order." Mu Si'an circled around the prince, "Why are you alone? Where is the princess? Are you still in the palace?"
“Well, in the palace.”
“Have you decided when to set off?”
"Of course, the sooner the better." Pei Hao read the information and knew that the matter could not be delayed any longer. "You go and prepare first. Let people leave the city in batches tomorrow. I will wait until the curfew is over before leaving at night."
“Okay.” When business was brought up, Mu Si’an’s expression became serious.
