Fallen Imperial Consort from Heaven - C1048 1047 Cover Water
Yan Xiao’s face was gloomy, but he did not say a word, and did not blame Luo Xiong for being inappropriate. Luo Xiong’s strategy, in front of second brother, was not even worth looking at.
His second brother had planned for dozens of years. With this kind of patience and caution, he would have already thought of a way to retreat. Even if Luo Xiong and the others kept a close eye on the Palace’s family members, they might not be able to find them.
“You can leave for now, and bury those brothers who sacrificed themselves well.”
“Yes.”
Luo Xiong left the study room with a look of shame. A short while later, a subordinate who was in charge of contacting Yan Yuan reported the letter that Yan Yuan had given him.
“Pavilion Master, this is King Jing’s letter that came to the capital a few days ago.”
“Bring it here.”
Taking the letter, Yan Yuan opened it and read its contents. A light flashed in his eyes and he instantly thought of something, saying, “Pass down the order, check out all the shops and farms in the King Carefree Palace, especially the managers in charge, and where the income and expenditure will go.”
“Yes.”
The people from the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets were very fast, but they still spent a few days searching the King Carefree Palace. By the time that information was sent to Yan Xiao, it was already ten days later.
“Most of the managers in the King Carefree Mansion are fine, and the income and expenditure are normal as well. There is only one farm, and on the surface, the income is very little.” Most of the managers in the King Carefree Mansion are fine, and the income and expenses are also normal.
The most obvious feature is that the people in the manor are all alone. They have no parents, and no children amongst the brothers, and this subordinate has tried to probe them, but although these people are all dressed like members of the manor, they are all experts who are hiding their abilities. ”
As Yan Xiao listened to his subordinate’s report, he also looked at the account book’s information that was presented in front of him.
One of them was the one that came out of the manor. The account book showed that the manor could not afford to spend more, but if one looked closely, they would see that the manor had the most income.
King Carefree had already been exposed, but those people were still waiting in the manor. Thinking about it, that manor was the army’s source of supplies, so Second Brother would definitely not be willing to give up.
At the same time, it also explained that the military resources of that army were not many. If second brother wanted to successfully seize the position, the most likely outcome would be a quick battle. He would absolutely not dare to fight a prolonged battle.
Right now, he had to leave the Yizhou for the camp, but he definitely would not take the initiative to send out troops.
If they found the army this morning, they would naturally break their chance to collect grain.
“Withdraw all the people in the manor. Based on the clues provided in the account book, investigate where all of the Manor’s income went to.”
“Yes.”
Half a month later, Yan Xiao sent someone to deliver a message back. That manor’s entire expenses, after going through layer after layer of transformations, were all directed towards one place — —
“overlying water?”
Yan Xiao muttered the name in a low voice as he frowned.
The overlying water was not far from the Yizhou, but it did not belong to the territory of the Yizhou.
The terrain here was extremely dangerous, filled with all sorts of people. Very few outsiders would be able to enter this place.
One side faced the mountain, the other side was facing the sea, and the other side was facing the Turkic army. If a large army wanted to attack from the overlying water, it would be very difficult to break through, it was an extremely easy and defensive terrain.
To take down the King Carefree’s army in one fell swoop was not easy at all. The only consolation they had was that as long as they protected the road to overlying water, they would be able to cut off their supply of food and supplies.
Afterwards, Yan Xiao sent people to check if the army from the overlying water was there.
Suddenly, he thought back to what Long Di had told him that day. He was kind and would go find him every month, but it was just a casual chat, now he roughly understood that Long Di was not lying.
Second Brother looked for Long Di, trying to find the new Yi Nation and enter the overlying water without anyone noticing, that was the main issue.
After all, the eastern and western borders of the overlying water s would attract attention if they passed by them.
As he thought about it, Yan Xiao scoffed and laughed, “Second Brother is really cautious, but you are too cautious.”
In order to use Long Di to deceive eyes and ears, he had entered the overlying water from New Yi Kingdom. However, he had never thought that it was because of Long Di’s existence that he would be exposed.
If he hadn’t found out about Long Di, he might still not have had enough evidence to prove that the Yizhou’s mysterious power was him.
At this time, Yan Yuan and his wife were heading to the border town of Turkic and Easternum. Here, Turkic and Easternum had been interacting with each other for dozens of years, so even though it was a border town, they looked to be extremely rich.
“overlying water? “What is this place?”
This was the first time Liu Ruo Qing had heard this name from Yan Yuan’s mouth, hence she was a little curious.
“This area does not belong to the Easternum, nor does it belong to New Yi City, nor does it belong to the Three Great Guilds. There are no officials controlling it, and there are people living there of all kinds. I think Shen Gu Zi wouldn’t go to that kind of place. ”
Hearing Yan Yuan’s words, Liu Ruo Qing did not persist. She had heard of how evil and evil caused trouble for the common people. Although it was not a generalization, she just did her best not to cause trouble for herself.
“Tomorrow we are going to enter the Turkic territory. Should we directly go and reminisce with Prince Sang Ji and ask him if he has seen someone like Shen Gu Zi?”
They had Shen Gu Zi’s portrait in their hands, and Xia Tao Hua had made them draw it so they could have it sent over. If Shen Gu Zi had appeared in the Turtle, there might be people who had seen him.
“Sure.”
Yan Yuan nodded and habitually rubbed her soft hair and said: “Rest early tonight. When you’re full, you can go out tomorrow.”
“Yes.”
Liu Ruo Qing nodded and obediently laid down on the bed. She laid in Yan Yuan’s embrace and subconsciously rubbed her hands together, causing Yan Yuan’s lower abdomen to light up in flames. His throat had become dry and astringent, but because of the baby that was in her womb for only two months, he finally gritted his teeth and endured.
“Don’t move, be good.”
His voice had uncontrollably become a little hoarse, so Liu Ruo Qing was naturally able to hear him, and there was some playfulness in his eyes.
“What, you don’t like me leaning on you?”
She raised her head from his arms, her eyes filled with the sadness she was trying to hide.
“Of course not, it’s just that …”
However, if he was dragged down by her again, he was afraid that he would lose control of his body.
“If you don’t let me back down, then… “And?”
The hand hidden under the blanket deliberately touched his waist. His originally sad face now had an undisguised craftiness.
