Chapter 336 Then Let Him Go
When Jiang Yue heard his name being called, he stepped out of the line and clasped his fists, saying:
"Your Majesty, among my subordinates, there are many who are excellent in martial arts. Why don't you let me select five of them to assist the court officials in delivering the order?"
She was referring to her five senior brothers.
She knew that the reason His Majesty asked for her opinion was to help her share her worries.
The number of Xuanwu troops is limited, and she would be reluctant to let them all go with her.
"Oh?" Zhao Chongxiu nodded silently after hearing this.
However, General Chen was somewhat unhappy.
The general didn't go and asked his subordinates to go. Isn't Jiang Yue slapping him in the face as a military general?
Just as he was about to say something else, Zhao Chongxiu's eyes stopped him and he had to stop.
All the court officials saw that His Majesty did not want Chen Yuan to go, and began to recommend themselves.
"Your Majesty, I am willing to go."
"I am willing to go."
"..."
Didn’t Jiang Yue just say that she would ask her people to assist the imperial officials in seeing him off?
A group of ministers came out and knelt on the ground. Zhao Chongxiu just looked at them silently, and finally his eyes fell on Li Zhao.
"Li Zhao, you go. If this escort is foolproof, I will reward you handsomely!"
The minister who was about to step out of the line quickly shrank back, and the minister who was kneeling on the ground also knelt silently.
They didn't dare to stand up unless Your Majesty told them to.
Li Zhao accepted the order and went there this time. It was inevitable that he would feel peaceful instead of going to the battlefield.
Then, Zhao Chongxiu's gaze fell on Jiang Yue again.
"It's not impossible according to what you said, but I need to examine their abilities first."
Based on previous experience of military rations being robbed, they were bound to be harassed this time as well.
This time, the military rations and supplies will pass through various counties along the way, and the grain collected along the way will be sent to the border camps, so he must choose some with stronger strength.
He is really afraid of being robbed.
Especially this time, the Jin Dynasty was watching their every move with a covetous eye.
"The competition will be held in front of the palace at noon tomorrow. General Chen, including your subordinates, anyone with outstanding abilities can participate in this task of escorting supplies."
Zhao Chongxiu gave the final order.
When General Chen heard this, he seemed to be revived.
All the princes and nobles, as long as they had people who practiced martial arts in their families, wanted to take on such an important task. It would be a kind of experience, and it would also be a great achievement when they returned.
This matter has come to an end for the time being. With His Majesty's words,
"Dismiss the dynasty!"
The courtiers dispersed.
It was a day full of energy. Jiang Yue was riding a horse. On the way back, he had just taken a step when he was stopped by the Minister of Justice Wen Liang.
"General Jiang, please stay."
"Lord Wen." A look of repression flashed in Jiang Yue's eyes. The moment she dismounted from her horse, she saw the Minister of Justice walking side by side with her.
"Can you tell me how you assisted His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin in capturing the Northern Yan spy alive?"
After hearing this, Jiang Yue told the truth about her experience in Qingyun in order to help solve the case.
After hearing this, Wen Liang still had no idea.
"Does the King of Jin have anything to say?"
"No." Jiang Yue guessed why the Minister of Justice came to look for her:
"Sir Wen, are those spies from Northern Yan so stubborn?"
"Oh." Wen Liang sighed. This case was too difficult to handle. If he didn't solve it, his hair would almost fall out.
No matter how hard he tortured the spy, the spy remained tight-lipped.
Wen Liang was so angry that he really wanted to kill him with a knife.
Jiang Yue thought for a moment and said:
"Then let him go."
After hearing this, Wen Liang shook his head suddenly.
"General Zhongwu, do you know what you are talking about? You are the one who brought this person back."
Jiang Yue knew, of course. "Let him go, and then follow him secretly. Wouldn't that give us a clue?"
Wen Liang's eyes flickered, "Too risky."
If the cost outweighs the gain, Your Majesty will still take his official hat.
Others don’t know how miserable his life has been these days.
Ever since he took over the case, many people have been targeting him, secretly wanting to kill him.
Whenever he traveled, he would bring top guards with him.
Jiang Yue said: "It's not real."
"You mean..." Wen Liang paused and fell into a brief thought.
Jiang Yue asked: "Did anyone break into the prison?"
"Yes, but the prison breaker is already a corpse."
"What can be found?"
"No clue at all." Wen Liang shook his head. It was because he had no clue that he thought of asking Jiang Yue.
Jiang Yue had just arrived, and she only brought back a spy from Beiyan, so of course she had no clue at all.
After separating from the Minister of Justice, Jiang Yue continued on his way.
As she walked, she looked at the nearby streets, thinking about setting up a garden.
But at the same time, she thought of how much food Lord Li had given her, which had added a lot of convenience to their first arrival in the capital, and she thought it was time to reciprocate, so she prepared valuable gifts and went to visit him in person to express her gratitude.
After arriving at Li's house, Li Zhao just said that Jiang Yue was a little too polite, and he just wanted to repay Jiang Yue for saving him.
...In Yue Mansion, Jiang Wuni and Feng Jinrong sat in a row at the gate of the mansion, listening to the clanging sounds in the courtyard, looking towards the direction of the palace, waiting for Jiang Yue to return.
"Today is Xiaoliu's first day in court. I don't know if everything goes well or not." Jiang Wuni couldn't fall asleep since Jiang Yue got up and sent her to court. She has been waiting until now.
Feng Jinrong: "People only come up with all kinds of thoughts when they are idle." She felt that Jiang Wuni was idle.
Well, she is free too.
"When I'm free, I'll find something to do." Jiang Wuni said to herself.
"What to do?" Feng Jinrong can't do anything else except being the leader of the mountain stronghold.
"To make money." Jiang Wuni was thinking about ways to make money. It was not good to just sit around and do nothing all day.
She can't rely on Xiaoliu for everything. As her older sister, she needs to do something for her.
"Make money?" Feng Jinrong took these words to heart. She had been traveling all the way and was short of money.
She and Xiaonan walked along the street and almost went out to beg.
Thinking of this, she became a little worried about Xiaonan. She didn't have much money to begin with, and was really afraid that something might happen to him on the road.
"How to make money?" Feng Jinrong said she didn't know how.
"How about punishing the evildoers and asking the government for some reward money?"
Jiang Wuni: He really is a copycat, how come he looks so bandit-like?
"Someone is in charge of the public security in Lindu City. It will never be our turn again."
Feng Jinrong: "Who said that? My father got a lot of rewards for this in Liangzhou."
Jiang Wuni: "Okay, what you said makes sense."
Feng Jinrong: "Let's go out and look for business."
Jiang Wuni: "Are you serious?"
The two were really bored and left the hospital again.
It was also the first time that Feng Jinrong discovered his special hobby, shopping.
But Jiang Wu Ni said that she didn't love him.
She wanted to see Jiang Yue as soon as possible, so the two of them walked towards the palace.
After walking for a while, they saw a woman in purple being driven out of the courtyard in front of a government house.
Immediately, a young lady and two maids also followed out of the mansion.
"Yu Ziyan, stop embarrassing yourself here and go back to your Liangzhou!"
A pretty woman dressed in goose yellow looked at Yu Ziyan who was being pushed out with disdain, her eyes full of anger.
