The powerful princess arrives with a space warehouse

At this time, another grain delivery team led by Chu Chenye was moving along the official road, with no sign of heading to Xijing Wharf. After walking more than 20 miles, they continued along the official road, and even took a small road for a while, apparently to save time. Seeing this, the tails behind them all went back to report to their respective masters.

But what was unexpected was that Chu Chenye's grain delivery team stopped at a small dock fifty miles away from Kyoto. They began to transport the grain without stopping, and when almost half of the grain was loaded onto the ship, it was already sunset.

The boat started moving slowly, moving further and further away from the pier.

Chu Chenye arranged for their convoy to continue along the official road, and it was expected to arrive near Sanyang Town tomorrow night.

"Fifth Prince, will they fall into our trap?" asked Xiang Yimu, the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue.

"Don't worry, nothing should happen tonight. Prince Jing analyzed that they might ambush us on the mountain road in front of Sanyang Town tomorrow night."

"By the time they realize they've been tricked and chase us, Prince Han and his men should have already reached Nanjun Prefecture."

"Prince Jing's arrangement is brilliant."

"That's right, Third Brother is the God of War."

……

Yu Palace

"Prince Yu, the Fifth Prince's grain delivery team did not proceed as planned. They took the land route," a man half-knelt in front of Prince Yu and reported.

"Hmm" Chu Chenyu always felt something was wrong, but he couldn't put it into words.

"Did they take the official road or the side road?"

"We basically took the official road, but sometimes we took the smaller roads."

"Continue to monitor." Chu Chenyu waved his hand, and the person who was half-kneeling and reporting disappeared.

"Chen An."

"Your Majesty."

"Inform Chen Ru and have him lead his men to disguise themselves as bandits and intercept the grain train on the mountain road in front of Sanyang Town tomorrow night. If that doesn't work, just set fire to them. It's best for me to kill Chu Chenye as well, he's Chu Chenxiao's dog."

"Yes. Your Majesty, I will take my leave."

Xue Xiang's Study

Xue Conggui sat beside the tea table in his study, brewing tea in a leisurely and elegant manner. He quietly poured out the foam after the initial boil, added some water, and continued to let it boil. The steam curled around the teacup, and soon the water boiled again. After the second boil, the whole room was filled with the fragrance of tea.

"Father, aren't we going to take action?" Xue Jianming, the eldest son sitting in the front, asked from time to time.

"Father, why aren't you in a hurry? Isn't now a good opportunity to take action?" Seeing that Prime Minister Xue calmly poured two cups of tea from the pot, he gently pushed one cup and placed it in front of Xue Jianming, then he picked up the other cup, blew it, took a sip, and the tea flowed down and moistened his lungs.

Xue Xiang then said calmly, "Jianming, why are you still so impatient?"

"Father!"

"Don't you think this is very strange? Why did they give up the sea route and go by land?"

"Oh, yes, it's really strange to hear you say that, father."

"Keep following. This might just be a feint. They might take the water route again."

"Yes, father. Then will Prince Yu take action?"

"Send some people to help him. We won't show up this time. Let Yu'er make the decision on his own. It's time for him to grow up."

"Yes, father."

"Has Chu Chenyan arrived in Nanjunzhou?"

"I received a pigeon message, he is now in Nanjunzhou."

"Send the message out. If he finds out anything, push the Queen Mother's people out. If that doesn't work, make him disappear."

"Yes, father." Xue Jianming asked again, "Those who stole the property from the Kong Mansion have not been found yet. There is no trace at all. Who do you think did this?"

"Well, it's very strange. Keep searching. I don't believe that we won't be able to find any traces."

……

The Empress Dowager's Palace of Compassion and Tranquility

Today, the Queen Mother has regained her former beauty. She has a light layer of rouge on her skin, wears a dark yellow gown with yellow roses embroidered on the edges, plum blossom embroidered shoes, and a jadeite imperial phoenix hairpin in her hair. She lazily leans on the beauty couch, and two palace maids kneel in front of her, carefully massaging the Queen Mother's legs.

Madam Zeng, the head waiter, walked in from outside the palace and said, "Empress Dowager."

The Queen Mother waved her hand, and the two palace maids tactfully retreated.

"what's the situation?"

"Prince Jing cleared out all the women in his backyard, and Xiao Peixue was also sent back to the Xiao Mansion."

"Just send it, it's useless. It never gave Nan'er any useful information."

"Go and ask Doctor Xiao to come over, and then go tell the emperor that I'm sick and want to see Yu'er."

"Yes, ma'am."

"Go to Prince Jing's mansion and tell Princess Jing to come to the palace tomorrow to take care of the patient."

"Empress Dowager, are you going to give her a warning?"

"Humph, I want to see what this little hoof has to offer..."

……

Ouyang Yunyao didn’t know that someone was targeting her again, and she probably wouldn’t care even if she knew.

The day passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was late at night again. Chu Chenjing came to Ouyang Yunyao's room in Yunqing Courtyard. Seeing that Ouyang Yunyao had already put on a dark purple close-fitting dress, he said, "Yao'er, we can go now."

The two men left the palace quietly and went to the Dali Temple.

"As soon as I arrived at the gate of the Dali Temple, I saw a man quietly approaching me and said, "Prince Jing, I just heard a report from below that Shi Yulan is dead."

Ouyang Yunyao recognized the man as Dali Temple Minister Shao Wanbo. "Shao, do you know how she died?"

"I can't see anything. I can't find anything."

"Yao'er, do you want to go take a look?" "Yes."

"Master Shao, take the prince and princess to have a look."

"Prince Jing, the person is still in prison. I will take you there right away."

The three men came to Shi Yulan's cell door and saw that the jailer had already opened it.

Ouyang Yunyao walked forward and checked Shi Yulan's cause of death. There was really no sign of strangulation on her neck, and there was no sign of poisoning.

Ouyang Yunyao communicated with Jiji in the space through her mind, asking it to use CT to scan Shi Yulan's entire body.

There was a beeping sound in Ouyang Yunyao's head, and Jiji's voice came, "Major, there is a needle in the back of your head."

"Okay." Ouyang Yunyao also read the image in the CT machine with her mind, and a thin needle was inserted into the back of Shi Yulan's head.

It seemed that a master had come in. Ouyang Yunyao remained calm, pretending that she hadn't noticed anything, and even deliberately said, "How could this person die out of nowhere?"

Shao Siqing quickly stepped forward and replied, "Prince Jing, Princess Jing, I will ask the coroner to check it carefully right away."

"Well, don't tell anyone that I was here."

"Don't worry, Prince Jing, we are all on the same side tonight."

"it is good."

Chu Chenjing and Ouyang Yunyao left the cell.

"Yao'er, did you see anything?" Chu Chenjing saw Ouyang Yunyao's expression and guessed that she must have seen something.

"Well, he must be an expert. There are needle marks on the back of his head. I wonder if it was done by Feng Lina?"

"She probably doesn't have the ability to find such a master."

“Who could that person be?” Ouyang Yunyao thought to herself: Forget it, no matter who he is, let him die.

"Yao'er, are we still going to the palace now?"

"No need. Didn't the Queen Mother order me to come to the palace tomorrow to attend to her illness? Given her personality, she will definitely not let me leave the palace tomorrow. Isn't that just right?"

"You don't have to be afraid of her. I'll be with you tomorrow."

"Me? Afraid of her? You don't have to accompany me, just continue your morning court."

"Okay, if there's anything, let Xia Fei report it. Don't worry, I have people in the Cining Palace."

"Row."
