Happy Palm: The War King's Favored Little Doctor Consort

"If you want me to trust you, you should show some ability." Mo Yunting said calmly.

Su Qingli nodded in agreement: "Your Majesty sent Yin Ze to Ruyang. The investigation should not be about the skinny horse case, but about smuggling salt or something more serious than selling smuggled salt."

A hint of admiration flashed in Mo Yunting's eyes. Su Qingli saw the situation very clearly.

"The Divine Martial Guards have discovered that someone is raising private soldiers with the intention of rebellion, and the clues lead directly to the Lu family in Ruyang."

"The Lu family is a wealthy family. They have made a fortune selling illegal salt and skinny horses over the years. They are rich. Ruyang is far away from the capital and is a major trading center with a dense population. They have land and people, which meets the conditions for raising private soldiers."

Mo Yunting couldn't deny that the Lu family of Ruyang was indeed a suspect, but the Lu family of Ruyang didn't have that ability!

"However, besides money and people, raising a private army also requires one thing."

"what?"

"arms."

The admiration in Mo Yunting's eyes became more and more intense. If Su Qingli were a man, he would definitely recruit her as an advisor!

"Ruyang is rich, but it has no mineral resources. Judging from the fact that they train skinny men to control court officials, their methods tend to be gentle, and they only think about winning over, bribing, and threatening. Moreover, all the money they earn is shipped to the capital. The Lu family must be standing behind a certain prince."

Su Qingli's mind raced. Someone was trying to frame the Lu family in order to cut off the prince's financial resources!

"It has nothing to do with me. I'm not interested in party disputes." Mo Yunting saw Su Qingli's eyes rolling around and knew that this girl was suspecting him.

"Of course I wouldn't doubt you, Your Highness. I just think we can go with the flow." Su Qingli put on a sly smile. "Your Highness, Ruyang is a major trading center, with frequent trade."

Mo Yunting reacted instantly. Yes, being a major trading hub is Ruyang’s advantage, but it can also become Ruyang’s fatal weakness!

"General Yin should have thought of this. Large quantities of weapons would be easily discovered if transported by land, but it would not be so easy if transported by water."

Yin Ze sent people to seal off the dock and search all the goods. He also sent people to count the whereabouts of the goods. Sure enough, he found a clue. In a warehouse downstream, he found a warehouse full of weapons.

Lu Zhen was originally confident, but when he learned that the Lu family's warehouse was full of weapons, he panicked. He could not be caught in the illegal mining and selling of salt. After all, the Lu family had never been involved in it openly!

But a whole warehouse of weapons was placed in the Lu family's warehouse. This was a serious crime that he could not argue or deny!

Privately manufacturing weapons is a crime tantamount to treason!

"This is a frame-up!" Lu Zhen shouted angrily, "Yin Ze, you framed me!"

"Is this General framing you?" Yin Ze sneered. "It would take more than a few days or months to manufacture so many weapons. Ruyang is your territory. Tell me, how can I hide so many weapons from you and into your Lu family's warehouse?"

"General, my Lu family has absolutely never done such a thing. This weapon does not belong to our Lu family. Someone framed us!"

"You said this was a frame-up, then tell me, who framed you?"

"Yes... yes..." Cold sweat broke out on Lu Zhen's forehead. He supported the third prince. The third prince and the eldest prince had always been at odds. The one who framed him must be the eldest prince. But there was no evidence. It was a serious crime to frame the prince at random!

"General Yin, it is your duty to find out who framed the Lu family. The Lu family's business is so vast that they have offended many people over the years. Please investigate carefully. One day, the Lu family will definitely repay you."

"Are you bribing this general?" Yin Ze looked solemn and spoke in a cold tone. If Lu Zhen dared to say yes, Yin Ze would make him lose a layer of skin!

"I dare not. I just hope that the general can handle this impartially and restore the innocence of my Lu family."

"This general handles cases impartially and without bias. Patriarch Lu, please think about how to explain the origin of these weapons."
