365: Whatever You Want

Yan Junchu smiled upon hearing this, "I can't say I'm suspicious, but I just feel that many things are related to Suizhou, so I can't help but feel suspicious, so I asked someone to investigate."

Su Yi couldn't help but admire him. At the beginning, he didn't feel anything and followed Prince Rong to the south. When he arrived at the place, he didn't find anything wrong for a while. It was later that the grain was insufficient, and Prince Rong had to ask the local government to open the granary, and then he found out that something was wrong.

The Crown Prince was far away in the capital, but he was able to prepare for the rainy day and see through it. Naturally, he was far better than him. His sister was right, he was really too stupid before.

"Your Highness, do you think this matter is really related to Suizhou?" Su Yi asked hesitantly. Although he now realized that something was wrong with Suizhou, he didn't dare to speak out because he had no evidence.

Yan Junchu looked at Su Yi, "I'll have to trouble you, big brother. When Prince Yi goes to the capital, you will lead the team to the south to investigate the case. This case is of great importance. I have recommended Shang Junyan as the imperial envoy, and you will be the deputy. You two will work together to investigate the matter clearly."

Hmm?

Who?

Shang Junyan?

Su Xinyi was shocked. She didn't expect that the prince would recommend Shang Junyan!

For a moment, she felt complicated. She never thought that the prince would give him such an important task. To be honest, Shang Junyan's current official position is far less famous than in the previous life. The prince can be regarded as a wise man.

Su Xinyi once hated Shang Junyan and hated the people in the Prince of Pingjing's mansion so much that she was willing to die with them in the previous life.

All the grudges were wiped out in that fire. As for this life, she had nothing to do with Shang Junyan or the Prince of Pingjing's Mansion, so even though she still hated him, she didn't do anything in private.

Even looking at the current situation in the court, she encouraged Shang Junyan to continue to be his capable minister, but now Shang Junyan really showed his head in front of the prince, her mood was quite complicated.

When mentioning Shang Junyan, the prince's eyes inadvertently swept across Su Xinyi's face, and seeing that her expression really showed that kind of faint and indescribable look, he retracted his gaze.

Su Yi did not notice the prince's subtle expression, and spoke with the same surprise, "Shang Shizi? Your Highness, will the humble minister and Shang Shizi have little influence?"

He was a military officer, and the answer to checking the granary has never been a military officer, so he was not surprised to choose a civil official, but he was surprised that Your Highness would choose Shang Junyan.

Although it is just a recommendation for the time being, the prince advises that His Majesty rarely disapproves of things, so this matter should be almost settled.

"The situation in the court is complicated now, and we cannot follow the old rules when employing people. Moreover, Shang Junyan performed very well in dispatching food and military supplies in the last battle in Zhangping Prefecture. This time, the case of the granary is investigated, which is also a familiar task for him."

Because Su Yi will work with Shang Junyan to investigate the case later, the prince is afraid of any disagreement, so he made it very clear with Su Yi, his brother-in-law.

"For now, Shang Junyan is fair in doing things, and will not be partial to others because of personal relationships or power. He has the power of an imperial envoy to leave the capital this time, so there is no need to worry about the local officials being hypocritical."

Su Yi was relieved when he heard the prince say this. He is a military officer, and he doesn't know how many pairs of shoes he has worn out because of the granary matter this time. After all, he is not a civil servant, so it is a bit difficult for him to investigate the case.

If Shang Junyan is as powerful as His Highness said, this trip should be much smoother.

Su Xinyi listened to the side without interrupting, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. Shang Junyan was a muddleheaded person when it came to the inner house and family affairs, but he was really capable of being an official, otherwise he would not have been the right-hand man of King Rong at such a young age in his previous life.

Yan Junchu still had a lot of things to ask Su Yi about the granary, so he simply kept him for dinner, just in time for Xinyi and the other siblings to talk more.

Su Xinyi was really happy, and immediately ordered someone to pass the message to the kitchen. Seeing that the prince and his eldest brother were talking about business and had no time to care about him, he stood up and said, "Your Highness, I can't help here. I just have something to ask Mu Xing. You can talk to your eldest brother slowly, and I'll go see someone first."

Yan Junchu looked up at Xinyi and smiled, "I forgot about Mu Xing. Okay, you go see him first. Pang Lan has already told me about his injury before. Ask him carefully and tell me later."

Su Xinyi nodded and then left.

Because he had been talking with Su Yi for a long time, Mu Xing had been waiting for a while. Seeing the Crown Princess coming in, he stood up to greet her.

Su Xinyi asked Mu Xing to sit down, "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for a long time. Some things delayed me."

Mu Xing didn't care when she heard it, "I didn't wait for long. The Crown Princess wanted to ask me about my injury?"

Su Xinyi nodded, "Did you stay with Zeng Liang again this time? How is he now? It's not convenient for me to leave the palace often now. I haven't seen him for a long time."

Mu Xing didn't expect that the Crown Princess still cared about Zeng Liang. He smiled and said, "He's fine. No one dares to mess with him at Qingjinfang. Don't live too comfortably. There are many little beggars around him to take care of him."

Su Xinyi was also happy, "Yes, with his ability, it's not easy for him to get along badly. How are Tian Zao and Bao Datong doing in Yulin Guard?"

"Tian Zao is brave and daring. He has accumulated a lot of military merits in the battle of Zhangping Prefecture because he followed you. After you returned to Zhangping Prefecture, he followed Lord Qin to go deep into the grassland. I later learned that he has been promoted to a thousand households. Bao Datong's temperament is not as good as Tian Zao, but he has also become a hundred households. The two of them take care of each other in Yulin Guard. In addition, with your care, no one dares to steal their credit. They live a good life." Mu Xing said.

Su Xinyi was surprised, "Is Tian Zao a Qianhu now? It seems that he followed Qin Guansheng and killed many enemies."

Tian Zao has always dared to fight and kill for revenge. He is good at martial arts and courageous. Although it is a bit unexpected that he has reached this point, it is reasonable.

It's not bad that Bao Datong can reach 100 households. After all, his temperament is different from Tian Zao.

"Master Qin, for the sake of the Crown Princess, taught Tian Zao a lot of things, and he became a half-teacher," Mu Xing said.

Su Xinyi couldn't help but feel happy when she thought of Qin Guansheng, who didn't look kindly on her back then.

"After you left Yulin Guard, you probably didn't go back, right? How do you know so clearly about Tian Zao and the others?" Su Xinyi asked curiously.

Mu Xing glanced at the Crown Princess, thinking that he didn't know who asked about these two people every time he saw him. Wasn't he afraid that he wouldn't be able to answer the questions after returning to Beijing, so he had made an agreement with Tian Zao if he didn't When he returned to Yulinwei, he asked him to write a letter and send it to the address he had reserved.

"We have correspondence." Mu Xing said concisely.

Su Xinyi glanced at Mu Xing again. At first, this man seemed to be able to live alone forever and there was no need to have much involvement in this world. Now he actually communicated with others. Tsk, what a man's mouth... …

However, Su Xinyi was very happy. With the fireworks in the world, the more involved he was with this world, the more he cherished his life and the more he wanted to live well.

Mu Xing can fight, carry, run and do great things. Su Xinyi naturally hopes that he can get better and better.

After saying this, he asked about his injury again, "When I was at the Duke's Mansion, I saw that you seemed to have something to say, but is there anything that is hard to say?"

Mu Xing was not surprised that the Crown Princess asked this. She had always been careful, with more and deeper thoughts than a honeycomb. He hesitated and said, "I think this assassination is not just for me."

Um?

Su Xinyi looked at Mu Xing, "Speak carefully."

"Because it happened that I wasn't on duty that night, but I drank an extra cup of tea and didn't feel sleepy, so I was sorting out the maps along the way in my room." Speaking of this, Mu Xing's tone was inevitably a little bad. Drawing a map is really something like this. Not a pleasant experience.

He used to be handicapped, but now he can draw decently with just a pen.

Looking at Mu Xing's subtle expression, Su Xinyi pretended not to see it. If Mu Xing didn't say anything, she wouldn't know.

Wouldn’t it be nice to learn more?

Just like her, if she hadn't been forced to learn a lot of things in her previous life, would she be so confident in this life?

Everything in this world will be betrayed, except the skills learned.

"When someone came in, I was the first to find out, because those assassins appeared outside my window first, and I was the first to go out and fight with them, so the people in the caravan thought they were targeting me. Come." Mu Xing thought and spoke slowly. What happened that night happened suddenly. Although he thought about many details afterward, he was still cautious about talking to Su Xinyi now.

Su Xinyi frowned, and asked after a while: "Did you observe carefully at that time, who were the assassins targeting more often?"

Mu Xing shook his head, "No specific discovery was made. Later, the people in the caravan were alerted and came out to challenge. Everyone gathered together. It was night again. I was entangled at the time and did not have more energy to observe."

Su Xinyi nodded, "Then why do you think it's not for you?"

"Intuition." Mu Xing spread his hands.

As a killer, intuition is their survival instinct.

Su Xinyi was silent. It's hard to explain this thing, but intuition is very mysterious.

"No one left alive?" Su Xinyi asked.

Mu Xing shook his head, "Except for the ones who ran away, everyone else is dead."

"Be killed or commit suicide?"

"There is no obvious act of suicide, but if someone is unable to escape from behind, he is indeed suspected of committing suicide."

Su Xinyi was thoughtful, then looked up at Mu Xing, "If you see them again, will you recognize them?"

"With your face covered, it's impossible to identify people, but if you pass a few tricks, you can."

It is not uncommon for people who practice martial arts to recognize people by their moves.

She couldn't help but think that His Highness the Crown Prince had sent people to check on King Yi, and now Su Yi also mentioned that the granary matter might have something to do with Suizhou. It was hard to say whether King Yi was involved, but Suizhou was very suspicious.

If, taking a step back, the people who assassinated the caravan were the same group as the people who were at the hunting ground, after all, their behavior of seeking death was very consistent, it is difficult to say whether they were accomplices.

Therefore, Su Xinyi looked at Mu Xing, "My eldest brother will go south to continue investigating the granary case. I want you to go with me. Maybe you will have unexpected surprises."

Mu Xing was stunned for a moment, and was silent for a long time this time. Then he raised his head and asked, "Is the Crown Princess suspected of assassinating the caravan, and is she related to the granary case?"

"There is no evidence, so you can't just talk nonsense. Let's just go with intuition."

Mu Xing:......

"Can you not go?" Mu Xing said with a dull face. He was too tired and didn't want to move. He just wanted to stay in Zeng Liang's comfortable little courtyard.

"If you don't go, I won't have anyone I trust more to entrust to investigate the assassins. After all, those assassins need your intuition to identify them." Su Xinyi smiled very kindly.

Mu Xing:......

Dig a hole and bury yourself!

What else could he do?

Su Xinyi looked at Mu Xing's rare face, smiled softly, and said: "I have told you before that I hope you can live with an upright identity in this world. You follow the caravan I have made a lot of achievements for so long, and I have already been able to change my identity. Have you ever thought about this? "

Mu Xing was a little surprised that Su Xinyi would mention this matter at this time. She did negotiate terms with him based on this point, but he actually didn't take it to heart.

However, his current state of mind is very different from that of then. In the past, he felt that living alone was not interesting, and that there was no difference between dying early and dying late.

But now that he has friends, people and places he can care about, he suddenly feels that life has warmth. In this case, an upright identity is also necessary.

Seeing that Mu Xing's expression finally changed this time, Su Xinyi felt relieved. Having known Mu Xing for so long, she was really afraid that he would continue like this.

Since there is hesitation, there is hope. She looked at him and continued to smile: "You have been here since the caravan was established. Your identity is traceable without checking. What I mean is not to erase your past. If you want to change your identity, it’s not impossible, but once you meet someone who wants to get to the bottom of it, you can’t hide it.”

If Mu Xing had not been in the caravan, it would have been easier to handle this matter, but he followed the caravan in and out, and there were many people in Yulinwei who knew him, so she could not keep everyone's mouths shut. .

Mu Xing raised his eyes and looked at Su Xinyi. He did not speak. He knew that she still had something to say.

"In the case of Ma Rude, you turned against the dark side and turned to the bright side. You deserve credit for it. Not to mention the caravan. You have done enough with your merits and the past can be wiped out. In the future, where you can go depends on your own ability." Su Xin Yi said slowly, "It's not impossible if you want to enter the guardhouse, but you just have a rebellious temper. I don't think this path may be suitable for you."

Of course Mu Xing was not willing to go to the health center, just like Tian Zao and Bao Datong, he didn't even think about it, it was too tedious.

"If you don't go to the guard station, you can work with the caravan like you are doing now, or work with the imperial envoy investigating the case as I proposed before. With your ability, you will be able to stand firm in just a few years."

"It depends on what you choose. No matter which path you take, it will not be easy, but as long as you work hard for two or three years, you can live an upright life for the rest of your life."

Mu Xing had a smile in his eyes and looked up at Su Xinyi, "After all, you don't want me to serve Prince Su? Okay, let's settle it."

He couldn't stand the rigid rules in the military when he went to the guard station. Although the granary case was very troublesome, Su Yi must be worried about his safety when he went to Su Xinyi. By allowing him to accompany him, he could not only investigate the person who assassinated the caravan, but also protect Su. It was safe and allowed him to perform meritorious deeds. It was hard for the Crown Princess to think so carefully about such a trick and still allow him to go there willingly.

Su Xinyi smiled, feeling completely refreshed. She looked at Mu Xing and said, "Wouldn't it be a waste of your life if you don't think about serving the country? I know you are different from ordinary people. When you and I met, I am not As the Crown Princess, I am telling you nothing. I just hope that you can live happily in the future based on the friendship between us."

"...I know." Mu Xing smiled. If it weren't for this, he wouldn't work hard and follow the caravan in and out, nor would he sit here. The most comfortable place for Su Xinyi is her Sincerity, and never using your status to pressure others.

She will make you feel that she is who she is. Whether she is the sixth girl or the princess, she is still the same person he once knew and has never changed.

"Then it's settled." Su Xinyi immediately agreed, "Shang Junyan, you also know."

"I don't know much." Mu Xing answered.

Su Xinyi was silent for a moment, then looked at Mu Xing's slightly thoughtful words, "He is a very talented person. There is no harm in learning from him."

Mu Xing glanced at Su Xinyi in surprise. There was actually someone she praised. Suddenly he remembered something. He raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Master Shang, isn't he the one you chased and beat before?"

Su Xinyi:......

"Didn't you say you don't know much?"

Is this called not knowing much?

"Oh, I don't really want to know, but who made you the Crown Princess? You are so prestigious that it's not easy not to know."

"get out."

Su Xinyi was offended by Mu Xing's words. She really doubted that if he became an official in the future, he would not offend his colleagues at Shangfeng. What kind of future would such a person have? Let's go to hell.

Love so much.

Mu Xing left in a very good mood.

Before the Double Ninth Festival, His Majesty finally issued a decree and ordered Shang Junyan to be the imperial envoy to thoroughly investigate the granary case, and Su Yi was to assist Shang Junyan as his deputy.

When the imperial edict came out, it took everyone by surprise.

One is that although Shang Junyan is somewhat famous in the capital, his fame is mostly related to Yan Qiongsi. After all, Yan Qiongsi only wanted to marry him, so he didn't know how much trouble he caused.

Now he is actually regarded as an imperial envoy by His Majesty, and the investigation is still a major case of the granary, which inevitably makes people question whether he is qualified for the job.

In contrast, not many people cared about Su Yi as a deputy. Being a deputy sounds nice, but in fact Su Yi was a military attaché and was there to protect Shang Junyan. The only criticism is that Su Yi is Su Xinyi's eldest brother. Is it because of this relationship that Your Majesty uses Su Yi?

Thinking about it this way, I feel that His Majesty's intentions are unpredictable. After all, His Majesty has never confused palace affairs with court affairs since he came to the throne.

Thinking of this, more and more people looked at Su Yi, and more people secretly guessed what His Majesty meant.

In the past, Shang Junyan was chased and beaten by the Crown Princess, and now he has Su Yi as his deputy, which is weird.
