Ma Jin, who was controlled by the Puppet Pill, naturally could not tell the truth. He had often pretended these days and had developed a set of methods to deal with it.

"Prime Minister, my subordinates really don't know what's going on! When I went to Qinxi, I didn't find anything strange. Except for Tong Ziliang's problem of guarding and stealing, everything else is obviously normal!"

Prime Minister He was not that easy to fool, he took out the poison and stuffed one into Ma Jin.

"You should know the consequences of betrayal or deception. Don't blame the truth for not giving you a chance!"

Ma Jin looked at him with panic on his face, but there was no trace of guilt in his eyes.

"Prime Minister, even if I have nine lives, I would not dare to deceive you! There are also a hundred dead soldiers in the mansion who are going with me. How can I hide it from them if I have any changes?"

Upon hearing this, Prime Minister He softened his sharp expression, and relaxed his hands on Ma Jin's collar.

Although my heart was still full of doubts, the other party's explanation was indeed correct.

The dead men of the He family are loyal to him, and their martial arts and vigilance are far superior to ordinary guards. Ma Jin and Wu Yong are just weak scholars, how can they play tricks under the noses of the dead men of the He family?

scheming?

"You didn't notice anything unusual either?"

Prime Minister He turned his head and questioned Wu Yong, whose sharp eyes were hard to resist.

Wu Yong was timid and fearful at first, so he was immediately frightened and trembling all over by his glare.

"I reported to the Prime Minister that my subordinates did not notice anything unusual. The news came too strange and sudden. Could it be that the Duke of Lu was plotting something secretly? He said without any evidence that Qin Xi had harbored important criminals in the imperial court.

And they also supported Song Xi with grain and grass to capture Pingliang? No matter how you hear it, it sounds like a fantasy, and it’s really hard to understand!”

The control of Puppet Pill prevents him from betraying Song Xi, but diverting attention and sowing discord are his special skills.

Ma Jin also had an idea when he heard this, and immediately spoke out to help: "The Duke of Lu only said in the secret letter that Pingliang was occupied by a team called the Song Family Army, but who knows if this Song is the person we thought of? Maybe it's just the last name.

Are they the same, or are they taking advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble in the name of the Song family? The truth still needs to be investigated, how can we just listen to the words of Lu Guogong's family?"

After a pause, he added fuel and jealousy to intensify the conflict.

"I heard that the Duke of Lu was able to recapture Xiliang only because Qin Xi provided enough food and grass. I don't know why he wants to retaliate now. Is it possible that he feels that Longxi is barren and has no oil and water, and plans to seize Qin Xi's military power? But we

It has been arranged in Yanzhou for many years. If the Duke of Lu discovers it..."

Prime Minister He's face instantly darkened, and he slapped the case with anger.

"He dares!"

The private military camp in Liuhe Mountain and the Yanzhou Guard are the biggest weapons left by the eldest prince. Whether the He family can achieve great things depends on how to make good use of this power.

If Duke Lu gets involved in Qinxi and controls the northwest, wouldn't the He family and the fifth prince have to sit back and wait for death?

Prime Minister He's sinister eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he decided to make arrangements in advance to destroy Duke Lu's wishful thinking.

"Say hello to the Ministry of Revenue and halve the food and grass originally allocated to the Longxi frontier army, so as to prevent the Duke of Lu from being too full and having other delusions."

After squinting and thinking for a while, he took out a bottle of antidote from his sleeve pocket and threw it to Ma Jin.

"Let me spare you this time. If you are negligent or deceive next time...then the truth will never be merciful! The He family does not keep useless people. You should know what to do, right?"

Ma Jin and Wu Yong nodded repeatedly and said with sincerity: "Understood, understood! We will do our best to serve the Prime Minister and assist His Highness Fifth Prince to board the Dabao smoothly."

After Prime Minister He warned the two men, he turned around and summoned the leader of the dead soldiers, instructing him to send thirty people to Pingliang to investigate the details.

If the Song Family Army is really Song Xi's power, then he must mobilize his troops as soon as possible to eliminate it!

Damn Zhuzi not only killed his outstanding eldest son, but also plotted to murder the eldest prince and make the He family fall short! He will not give up until this revenge is avenged. He wants all the remaining members of the Song family to die without a burial place!

Prime Minister He, filled with hatred, was arranging plans one after another, completely unaware of the abnormality of the two staff.

In his eyes, these down-and-out men could not cause any trouble at all, and after dispelling his suspicion, he paid no attention to them.

Ma Jin and Wu Yong secretly exchanged glances, preparing to find an opportunity to send a letter to convey the situation in the Prime Minister's Mansion to the northwest.

Sometimes being too conceited can lead to fatal risks, and this internal turmoil also became the trigger for the complete destruction of the He family.

…

In Beizhen Fusi, a similar torture scene is taking place.

As prisoners of Puppet Dan, the ten Tiqi here could not get through.

The current head, Chang Shaohui, is from the Ministry of Punishment. No clues can escape his discernment. As long as the person under trial shows the slightest mistake, he will use all means to dig out the truth.

If Puppet Pill's control hadn't been unbreakable, he might have been able to detect the strange situation in the northwest.

"Tell me! What did you see when you went to Qinxi? Who is so smart and knowledgeable that he can bribe you?"

Chang Shaohui stood in front of the execution frame with a cold face, staring at the ten Tiqi with cold eyes.

His shrewd brows and eyes were filled with suppressed anger, and his only patience was about to run out.

Today's interrogation was the most difficult one so far. No matter what methods he used, he could not get any useful clues.

Qin Xi obviously had an unusual situation, but these ten people always insisted that they had not found any problems.

Fortunately, he personally found the merchant who was passing through Qinxi. After detailed questioning, he noticed a trace of inconsistency and strangeness. Unfortunately, the other party did not know more about the inside story, so he had to turn his gun and directly interrogate the Tiqi sent.

Why did Qinxi carry out large-scale construction projects in recent years? Where did the large amount of food and grass to support the Duke of Lu come from? The entire northwest suffered from severe drought and locust plagues, why could they still provide food to relieve the people?

Are the rebels in Pingliang related to Qin Xi? Is the commander of the Song family army the fugitive Song Xi? What kind of power is hidden behind Qin Xi? Why can all the civil servants and generals in the province be willing to shut up and surrender?

Chang Shaohui accurately raised more than a dozen questions, each of which can get to the core of the truth.

It's a pity that none of the ten Tiqiu people were willing to tell any inside story. They just complained and complained that they had no knowledge.

Not aware of anything?

This is simply a joke for Tiqi, who is good at investigation, search, pursuit and interrogation!

Even if they couldn't find out the conclusive truth, they should still be able to discover Qin Xi's weirdness.

After returning to Beijing, everyone unanimously reported that there was nothing abnormal, but it turned out that the biggest abnormality was themselves!

Thanks to the Duke of Lu for sending the secret message, otherwise he would have been kept in the dark by several people!

Chang Shaohui was both angry and surprised. Such a difficult situation was completely beyond his expectation.

What weird thing is Qin Xi hiding? He can actually make ten Tiqi keep silent at the same time!
