Chapter 632 Clues

Chu Junlan is not a person who makes trouble. Every sentence she says is reasonable, and it is indeed for Xiao Xu. If Chu Junlan only knows how to act spoiled and act spoiled, Xiao Xu may be able to persuade her, but she is a bit unrefutable to Xiao Xu, and Xiao Xu can't find any words to refute for a moment.

"Qingqing..." He couldn't stop Chu Junlan from saving his family, and he didn't want Chu Junlan to participate in this matter himself, but Chu Junlan reminded him correctly.

Seeing that Xiao Xu's attitude was eased, Chu Junlan analyzed: "The emperor is now most cautious. The emperor is very careful. The sixth prince and the second prince are very close. Especially after arriving in Huaijing, when the prince of Huai'an was plotting against each other, the emperor's most sensitive nerves are mobilized now, and he is very concerned about the striking movements outside."

"And the reason why you can win the emperor's favor is that the emperor pity you for the hardships you have lived since childhood, and perhaps he has some thoughts of compensating. The second is that you can never be a prince, and you can only be Prince Gong to the outside world, and you will not fight for the throne and have no ambition for that position. The emperor's feelings for you may be much more sincere than other princes."

Chu Junlan's words forced Xiao Xu nodded in agreement.

Xiao Xu is satisfied with the current situation. I believe that Emperor Jing Hong also likes the current situation. Once this balance is broken, all his efforts over the years are likely to be wasted.

"Then I can't watch you take risks."

"Xuxu, don't stick to this matter. I am responsible for doing things and will not put myself in danger. It's not a moment when I have to fight to the death. Do you think I don't care about our children?"

Chu Junlan frowned: "My mouth is worn out. You have to listen to me and don't participate in this kind of thing. We are one, and the negative impact you will have is much greater than the impact I secretly investigate."

Xiao Xu looked at Chu Junlan helplessly: "You always have the ability to keep me speechless."

"Because I'm talking the simplest truth, you know what I'm talking about."

Xiao Xu knew that Chu Junlan had sternly, so she made up her mind that it would be useless for her to stop him, and he could also arrange for someone to protect him secretly.

After pondering for a long time, Xiao Xu nodded and said, "Okay."

Seeing that he was willing to agree, Chu Junlan smiled and said, "That's right. If you don't want to listen to me, I will punish you heavily."

"What are you punishing me?" Xiao Xu was a little surprised. Chu Junlan was always gentle and often naughty to him. He was looking forward to the "punishment" she said.

Chu Junlan smiled and said, "I don't think you are afraid at all, and you are still looking forward to it."

Xiao Xu looked at her eyes that looked particularly bright under the light, and couldn't help but hold the person in his arms and kiss her forehead, saying, "I'm looking forward to it. Since you punish me, I will continue."

Chu Junlan couldn't help laughing when she was amused, shook her head and leaned in his arms, and said, "Then I'll punish you to listen to me in the future."

Xiao Xu hugged her tightly and said solemnly: "Okay, as long as it is not harmful to you, I will listen to you."

The next day, Chu Junlan took a car out to "stroll around". When he arrived at the market, he said he wanted to rest in the teahouse, so he parked the carriage downstairs. After a while, he changed into ordinary people's clothes, took two guards out of the back door of the teahouse, hired a carriage, and headed all the way to Sanqianying.

Huo Yeqing has been taking people to monitor and patrol the surroundings of Sanqian Camp, but has not received any news yet. He was surprised to see Chu Junlan actually brought people there.

"Crown Princess, why are you here?"

Chu Junlan made a booing gesture, hid behind the bushes with Huo Yeqing, and whispered: "Can you observe anything?"

"I have been observing these days, but I have not found any abnormal behavior in the Sanqian Battalion. Only these days, there seems to be a large-scale training in the Sanqian Battalion, and injuries are transported out for treatment every day."

"Injury?" Chu Junlan narrowed his eyes in surprise, and then whispered: "When did it start? Why didn't you tell me about this before?"

Huo Yeqing felt strange: "It is normal for wounded soldiers to be trained in the army. Even if someone dies accidentally during training, it is very likely. This is nothing strange."

Chu Junlan nodded, not wanting to argue with Huo Yeqing.

When Chu Huayun was taken away, he was also a wounded soldier, but unlike the wounded soldiers these days, Chu Huayun was punished because he "made a mistake". Huo Yeqing didn't do these things specifically, so it was normal not to care about them.

While speaking, he kept staring at the guards at the military camp gate and whispered: "I'm out again with injuries."

Chu Junlan and others hurriedly looked in front of the camp gate and saw two wounded soldiers lying on a cart, all of whom were wrapped in bandages, and it seemed that their injuries were not light.

Chu Junlan lowered his voice and asked, "How many wounded soldiers will be transported out every day?"

"At least six or seven times." Huo Yeqing replied in a low voice.

Looking at Chu Junlan's thoughtful look, Huo Yeqing also vaguely realized that something was wrong: "Criminal Princess, do you think there is something wrong with these wounded soldiers?"

"Indeed, if so many people are injured every day, why don't there be a special place in the military camp to treat people? People with such serious injuries are not afraid that their injuries will become more serious?"

Huo Yeqing frowned and thoughtful.

Chu Junlan lowered his eyes and thought for a while, and said, "Let's follow you secretly and see where they sent people."

Huo Yeqing nodded, leaving a few people to continue observing, and followed Chu Junlan with two guards.

The chariots transporting the wounded were not fast, and it was not difficult for Chu Junlan, Huo Yeqing and others to keep up quietly.

Huo Yeqing lowered his voice and asked Chu Junlan: "Criminal Princess, are you not tight, right?"

"It's not a big deal, I'm going to be fine now," he chuckled and pointed to the lane again. "Your prince doesn't allow me to come. Look, even the clues are taken care of me, slow down and let me follow me."

Huo Yeqing couldn't help laughing when he heard this and whispered: "The prince is worried about you."

The group followed the cart for about half an hour and arrived at a village.

Chu Junlan waved his hand and stayed outside the village with Huo Yeqing and others. He did not follow in rashly, but looked around quietly outside the village.

Huo Yeqing whispered: "Criminal Princess, go and have a chance."

"No need, let's wait first. The wounded soldiers were not sent back to the city for treatment, but came to such a village, and there must be something strange about it."

Huo Yeqing nodded in agreement and whispered helplessly: "I am also a elm-minded person. I have never been suspicious when I saw them transporting wounded soldiers from the beginning. I never thought of following up and taking a look. I might have delayed serious matters because of this."

"You can't blame me for this. I used to train tightly in the military camp, and it's common for wounded soldiers."

Several people waited quietly outside the village for a while, but after a cup of tea, the empty cart was driven out by one person.

Chu Junlan and his friends hurriedly hid in the secret again. When the people walked away, they quietly entered the village.

"This village is also strange, and there are not many people around." Huo Yeqing murmured in a low voice.

Chu Junlan checked the ruts on the ground, pointed to a manor in front of him and said, "It should be heading here. Let's not go to the main entrance and go around from the back of the room."

"Yes." Huo Yeqing and others admired Chu Junlan very much. They didn't obey her instructions, and immediately followed Chu Junlan.

The group quickly arrived at the back of the courtyard and flipped in lightly from the back wall.

Huo Yeqing was worried about Chu Junlan at first, but he saw that Chu Junlan jumped and landed lightly as soon as he hit the wall. He swallowed the words.

Such a neat skill is even better than some guards, and he has not found any clues when he is following him these days. As soon as the princess appears, he finds clues. How can he have the face to say more?

Chu Junlan didn't know what everyone around her was thinking. She walked, listened carefully to the movements around her, and soon discovered the clues here.

“It’s very quiet and there seems to be no one living in the house.”

When I walked to the kitchen in the yard, a large iron pot was rusted. It was rare for an iron pot to be used. No ordinary farmer would practice good things like this.

Going to the door of the house, although Huaijing is not as cold as the north in winter, it is not as warm as spring and autumn. Normal people will not let the door open and emit the heat of the charcoal basin.

Chu Junlan walked to the door, suddenly pushed the door gently, then suddenly turned sideways and stabbed it with a needle. The middle-aged man who was coming towards him immediately froze in place with a dagger, leaving only a pair of eyes that could still turn around, his eyes full of fear.

Chu Junlan smiled without hesitation and moved away from his position. Huo Yeqing and others quickly entered the house and quickly searched through the main hall and the two main rooms on the left and right.

“Nothing.”

Chu Junlan smiled and said, "There won't be nothing. There is such a fierce man holding a knife at the door. When he heard someone coming, he would use the knife when he pushed the door. Besides, he wouldn't have disappeared out of thin air when he pushed the door."

Chu Junlan pointed to the man who was guarding the gate: "Bind him."

"yes."

Huo Yeqing immediately followed the instructions and did as he did.

Chu Junlan spread the man's hand apart, took the dagger, and checked around the house, and even didn't let go of the tables, chairs, benches, beds and beds in the house.

After searching for it, Chu Junlan found that the square table placed next to the window in the bedroom was pushed several times and it was still motionless, and it was connected to the ground.

Chu Junlan pointed here and said, "The secret passage should be here."

Huo Yeqing was completely convinced: "I really admire you. We were blind. The clues were right in front of us, and we didn't expect to come and see them. We followed them to the place, and we didn't find any secret passages. It really delayed your affairs in vain."

Chu Junlan smiled and shook her head. Huo Yeqing and others were just guards, and they were fighting for martial arts and loyalty. She was used to performing tasks in her previous life, so she would naturally pay special attention to these details.

Huo Yeqing blocked Chu Junlan behind him and fiddled with the square table for a while. Finally, he found that one upwards could lift up a whole square floor tiles stuck under the table.

A faint light came from the ground, and a faint scream came from it.

Chu Junlan immediately frowned. Such a familiar scene was also in the cellar, and her scream reminded her of the secret room where the Jinyiwei detained criminals under the jewelry shop when she was in the capital.

The Sixth Prince was in that secret room and tortured a person to death!

Chu Junlan pursed his lips and raised his hand to stop Huo Yeqing's move that was about to jump down immediately. "There is no rush to do this, let's make a long-term plan."

Huo Yeqing nodded: "Yes, what should we do now?"

"First, let's take the tied people away and go back to interrogate them."

Chu Junlan immediately directed everyone to recover the scene. Unexpectedly, just after turning around and walking two steps, a mixed sound of footsteps suddenly came from the yard.
