Your Majesty, the princess is fleeing famine with her child!

Liu Feng responded with a yes.

"Don't worry, boss. We are very careful and won't arouse their suspicion."

"Besides, even if they get suspicious, once they get in here, they can't get out!"

Village Chief Ma laughed triumphantly.

"you're right!"

"I heard that the prince is in a hurry to deliver the goods recently, but Manager Qian is short-handed. I've heard him complain several times."

"Let's send these people over. If Manager Qian is happy and can say a few good words for us in front of Mr. Wen, we won't have to worry about anything in the future."

"Mr. Wen is a very popular person in front of the prince. One thing he says is more effective than ten things anyone else says."

"I'm tired of staying in this godforsaken place every day!"

Liu Feng immediately flattered him a few words.

"We guard the perimeter and prevent outsiders from approaching, so as not to expose the location of the mine. We have also made great contributions."

"When the merits are rewarded in the future, we will also have a share!"

Xiao Jingyi's brows were twisted into a knot, but his heart was in turmoil.

Mine? What mine? Mining a mine without permission is a capital crime!

And which prince are they talking about?

This is the fiefdom of King Jiangzhou. Could the prince they are talking about be King Jiangzhou?

The King of Jiangzhou hid such a group of people in Fengluo Mountain. Could it be that he had rebellious intentions and wanted to rebel?

At this time, there was new movement in the room.

Xiao Jingyi immediately held his breath, leaned over the roof and continued to eavesdrop.

A man came into the room and reported: "Boss, we caught a few people while we were on patrol and brought them back!"

"They said they got lost in the mountains. One of them was a woman with her face covered, and she kept saying she was the third daughter of the Marquis Jichun's mansion."

"I pulled off the veil and saw a huge gash on her face. It was completely disfigured!"

"I had them gagged and locked up."

Village Chief Ma nodded and said, "We'll send them to the mine together later."

"What Jichun Marquis Mansion? They are nothing in front of our prince!"

When Xiao Jingyi heard this, he guessed that Yun Shanhu and the others were probably captured.

At this moment, someone rushed in.

"Boss, someone is coming from Manager Qian's side!"

When Village Chief Ma heard this, he immediately stood up and went out to greet him.

After a while, the guest was welcomed into the house.

Xiao Jingyi heard the visitor say, "The mine will ship out the goods tomorrow."

"There's a lot of cargo this time, and we don't have enough manpower. Manager Qian sent me here to ask General Ma for some manpower."

Xiao Jingyi's eyebrows jumped. No wonder he felt that the way the people in this village walked, sat and lay down were familiar.

It turns out that these people are military men.

And the village chief Ma was a general.

I just don't know which army these people are from.

However, the lowest general rank in Daqi is fifth grade.

As a general, hiding in the mountains and pretending to be a hunter, I think he must feel very depressed.

Soon, the voice of Village Chief Ma was heard in the house.

"It's just a small matter. I'll order them to select some people and they'll go back with you tomorrow morning."

Xiao Jingyi listened for a while before leaving.

He had just returned to the courtyard where he was staying temporarily when Yun Fuling also came back from outside.

As soon as the two met, they tacitly chose an empty room to have a secret conversation.

Yun Fuling said first: "I just went out to change the medicine for the injured person, and found that this person's village sent dinner to all of us."

"I checked the meals and found that they were all dosed with the same medicine as ours. The dosage was very light."

"I went from house to house to change the medicine. No one here stopped me, but I noticed someone was watching us in secret."

Yun Fuling walked around this circle, both as a test and because she was really worried about those who were injured.

Especially those who were seriously injured.

The person that Yun Fuling was most concerned about was Wang Erhe, who had undergone a suture operation.

These few days are a critical period for him, so he needs to be extra careful.

After Yun Fuling finished talking about her findings, she turned to ask about the situation on Xiao Jingyi's side and whether he had found out any information.

Xiao Jingyi hesitated for a moment, thinking that the matter behind this was too complicated and a woman like Yun Fuling should not be involved.

But when he met Yun Fuling's sharp and lively eyes, as if possessed by a ghost, he told Yun Fuling what he had heard.

When Yun Fuling heard that those people planned to send the men to work in the mines, sell the women to brothels after having fun with them, and kill all the children, she became so angry that her eyes turned red.

“These scumbags!”

Yun Fuling read a lot of novels and TV dramas in her previous life, especially costume dramas which were her favorite.

She immediately thought of those plots of usurping the throne.

The more she thought about it, the more she felt there was a clue.

Yun Fuling glanced at Xiao Jingyi and lowered her voice and asked, "What mine is that? Could it be an iron mine?"

"The villagers had rumored that there was a monster in the deep mountains, and anyone who entered would die."

"I wonder if anyone who gets close to here will be caught or killed."

"It's to keep the existence of the iron mine secret."

"The prince they are talking about is probably secretly plotting a rebellion!"

Xiao Jingyi glanced at Yun Fuling. He didn't expect that she was so sensitive and hit the nail on the head.

Most women are rarely so sensitive about politics.

Xiao Jingyi also had such doubts.

Especially when the Jiangling Weir burst, the suspicion of King Jiangzhou became even greater.

"The village will send someone to the mine tomorrow. I will take the opportunity to follow them and find out more about the situation."

Yun Fuling did not stop Xiao Jingyi, but asked:

"It's such a big deal to plot treason, and the other party is a prince. For commoners like us, it's like hitting a rock with an egg."

"You...if you investigate this matter, will it lead to your own death?"

Although she learned such a shocking secret, with Yun Fuling's current strength, how could she fight against a prince?

If she didn't get involved, she would have plenty of ways to lead the villagers away from the village.

But if I really leave it alone, I will feel guilty.

If the prince who wanted to rebel was allowed to secretly accumulate strength and become powerful, and then rebel and usurp the throne in the future, and a war broke out, the people would suffer.

Perhaps by then, she and Yun Jingmo will also be among the people suffering from the war.

Xiao Jingyi heard the concern and temptation in Yun Fuling's words.

He raised his eyebrows and smiled. Although he did not reveal his identity directly, he said, "If I can get the evidence, no matter who the other party is, I can make him unable to turn over!"

Yun Fuling could hear the arrogance in his words.

Although she didn't know Xiao Jingyi's true identity, she understood that Xiao Jingyi's identity must be extraordinary and he was someone who could shake the existence of a prince.

She secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that with such a big Buddha protecting them, they would definitely be safe.

Who could have thought that just fleeing from a famine would lead to one being involved in a suspected case of treason.

That night.

After the night fell and everyone was asleep, Xiao Jingyi quietly left the village alone.
