"Dad." Peng Qiongyu lifted the curtain and walked in.

"How is the situation?" Li Song put the long sword aside and asked.

Peng Qiongyu sighed softly: "Three thousand eight hundred and twenty brothers died, and the supplies from the court have not yet arrived. The supplies sent by Uncle Zhong are enough to last until the end of the year, but if there is no follow-up supply, I am afraid that after the end of the year, we will not be able to survive very soon." Can’t stand anymore.”

Li Song frowned: "I understand."

Not sure what he thought of, Li Song's brows relaxed a little: "Fortunately, you asked your sister to collect food and grass in advance, otherwise..."

Before Li Song finished speaking, he didn't know what he heard and immediately closed his mouth.

The sound of footsteps came, and a thin, frail scholar wearing a blue official dress came in.

The scholar's goatee looked particularly abrupt on his aggressive face, and his pale face was full of anger: "Brother, why don't you let me participate in the discussion of the battle!"

Seeing the first words of the second master of the Li family when he entered the door, he didn't ask about the fighting situation or the logistics situation. He spoke with power. Peng Qiongyu turned his face away and curled his lips silently with great disdain.

Li Song raised his eyes and looked at Li Yang, his handsome and resolute face full of gloom: "You still have the nerve to tell me what you promised me and my mother before I came to the border? But what are you doing now?"

Li Yang's arrogance was somewhat suppressed. After mumbling for a long time, he still straightened his back and said: "But what did you promise to your mother when you brought me here, and what are you doing now! You won't let me participate in the battle. Discussing politics, how can I earn military merit!"

Li Song sneered: "I don't have time to argue with you now. The military camp does not support waste. I can give you a chance to earn military merit. But not only have you been fishing in troubled waters, you are even talking nonsense. Before you have caused a big disaster, Before I make a mistake, I will write to the Holy One and ask him to transfer you back to Kyoto."

"No! Brother! You can't do this!" Li Yang shouted loudly, the facial features on his face slightly distorted.

Li Song stopped talking to Li Yang and just lowered his head to do his own business. He raised his hand and waved. Peng Qiongyu understood and took Li Yang out politely but firmly while Li Yang was still yelling.

There were a large number of manuscripts received in the past few days on the desk, and Li Song felt an extra headache.

A thin piece of paper fell to the ground. Li Song picked it up and saw that it was a message from Li Xinran. It contained information about what she had discovered in the past few days and what she wanted from him.

Looking at the date, it was already a week ago. Li Song called Peng Qiongyu in with a loud voice.

"Dad, are you looking for me?" Peng Qiongyu lifted the curtain and came in.

"Well, how is your second uncle?" Li Song asked with a straight face.

Peng Qiongyu chuckled: "I sent him back to the tent, and then he became honest."

Li Song was stunned for a moment, and finally smiled and nodded at Peng Qiongyu: "Take it easy, don't let it slip. By the way, your sister wrote a letter saying that she wanted a few people, but now only Mu Yi Mu Er is following her. For her, it is indeed There are fewer people who can use it.”

"Yes," Peng Qiongyu saluted, "I will go find someone for my sister right now."

"Yes," Li Song nodded slightly, then waved his hand and let Peng Qiongyu go out.

Kyoto, Li Mansion

For several days, Li Xinran sat silently in her room, as if she was not the one running around before.

"Miss, Mu Yi came to report that Zhao Zhongren did run to his master quietly after a few days. Because their location was too empty, our people didn't hear what they were saying clearly, they just watched. Zhao Zhongren seemed particularly excited, and after the master and apprentice argued for a while, Zhao Zhongren ran away secretly as if he was afraid that others would find out.

Later, at midnight that night, Zhao Zhongren arrived at the back door of the mansion and contacted Bicui who was next to the old lady. Because he was far away, he only heard about 'eldest lady', 'truth', 'brothel' and so on. .Could it be that I want to sell you, the eldest lady, to a brothel? "

Yingge said worriedly.

Li Xinran pressed her temples with a headache: "Probably not. If I am ruined, they can't bear my father's anger now. The most likely thing is to kill me directly and then say it was a bandit to divert hatred."

Yingge was stunned, as if she had not thought of this.

"Then what should we do, miss..." Yingge's face was so anxious that tears were about to come out.

"It's okay Yingge, don't worry, but their testimony is indeed very interesting. There must be something fishy about what happened before, and the relevant evidence is related to the brothel.

Li Xinran murmured to himself, and then raised a slight sneer at the corner of his mouth.

"Pass my order and ask Uncle Zhong to choose a few good-looking and well-trained ones to go to the brothel and investigate the existence of Qiao'er. Mu Yi will blindfold Zhao Zhongren and Wang Zhongren and bring them to Zhuangzi. I want to interrogate them personally."

At this time, in a magnificent kitchen, a woman with an ordinary face and an extremely gentle manner was cleaning the last piece of fish head.

"Oh, Mrs. Lin's skills are so good. If I hadn't known that you grew up here, I would have thought that you grew up on the waterside."

The woman smiled softly and didn't say much. The people around her were also sensible and found excuses to leave.

Those who can survive in the princess mansion are all human beings. Those who can't read the eyes will be alienated.

After Mrs. Lin sent the person away gently and respectfully, she looked towards the horizon. The sunset was particularly bright and glowing. She looked into the distant void and sighed softly.

The bleak and chilly autumn wind blew her sigh away, and finally disappeared into the faint dust and smoke.

……

A few days later, a group of men in black broke into An Ranju in the dark of night. Just like Mu Yi before, they never took the right path, but took the scary path. If Mu Yi hadn't recognized their identities, Li Xinran was planning to kill him.

"Are you the people sent by daddy?" Li Xinran sat in the yard, not daring to light a lamp, and just asked in the moonlight.

The leading man in black cupped his hands, lowered his head and said, "Yes, I am Yin Yi, leading Yin Guards [-] to [-], and follow the instructions of the eldest lady."

Li Xinran nodded and said, "Then, please introduce yourselves."

"Yes." Yinyi said, cupping his hands.

"I'm Yin Yi, the leader of the Yin Guards. My martial arts skills are acceptable. I think I can defeat Mu Yi."

"Tie!" Mu Yi couldn't help but interject, and then realized that he had been living too comfortably recently and had violated a taboo.

Yinyi glanced at him in surprise when he heard Muyi interrupt, without saying anything, and continued.

"Yin Er is good at making hidden weapons. As long as he has seen any hidden weapons currently on the market, he can make a similar one; Yin San, a disguise master, can transform into anyone, as long as he has seen that person's face. I've heard that person's voice from his appearance. Yin Si is good at making poison; Yin Wu is invincible in light skills."
