Chapter 1709

After a pause, he asked, "What did you want to say before?"

Xiao Lingyue was slightly stunned and then reacted. Zhan Beihan asked what she had interrupted and said.

"It's not an important thing, let's talk about it later."

Zhan Beihan looked at her side and said for a while: "Okay."

The two followed the cape man and almost passed half of the log town along the way. After taking many detours, the three cape man walked into a large house and quietly entered the back door.

"Bang!"

As soon as I entered, the back door was closed immediately.

Quiet around.

Zhan Beihan and Xiao Lingyue stood in the shadow of the alley not far from the house.

Xiao Lingyue frowned slowly and looked at the house that looked like it was not an ordinary house: "This is their place to stay? Such a large house seems to be quite large, so do you have to follow in and take a look?"                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     �

With her and Zhan Beihan's ability, it is naturally not difficult to sneak into the house.

But now, they still don’t know who the cloaked man is, and whether the purpose is related to the imperial tomb they investigated. They are also afraid of being shocked by the enemy.

Zhan Beihan also looked at the house.

His face was still disguised, his sharp eyebrows cast a shadow, and there was a cold light like ice in his eyes.

"Do you know whose house this is?"

Xiao Lingyue was surprised: "I just arrived in Yuanmu Town and haven't inquired, do you know?"

Zhan Beihan's tone was cold: "This is the private residence of Li Bihuai, the county magistrate of Yuanmu Town."

"Private house?" Xiao Lingyue thought about it and soon thought of it, "Qiao Qing told me before that the caravan from Nanyan was said to be a distant relative of the county magistrate, who lived in the county magistrate's house every year, could it be?"

These three cloaked men are related to Nanyan’s caravan?

Zhan Beihan: "Who is Qiao Qing?"

Xiao Lingyue: "It's the girl in the caravan that saved me before."

After a pause, a smile flashed in her eyes: "It was she who sent King Xiang to the prison with one hand."

Zhan Beihan raised his eyebrows: "How did she know about the Nanyan Caravan?"

"We are all doing business, and there will always be news among peers, but I don't know if it is true or not, so I don't ask much."

Xiao Lingyue's eyes flashed and she said, "But according to Qiao Qing, this Nanyan caravan mainly engages in wood and stone business, and visits the log town every year. Don't you think it's too coincidental?"

Log Town is next to the imperial tomb.

The iron ore stolen from Hulang Mountain in the suburbs of Beijing was secretly transferred to the Construction Department of the Ministry of Industry and refined into thick iron.

Then, the thick iron was hidden in the wood and stone raw materials, escorted by the army, and arrived at the imperial tomb.

Just at this time, the Nanyan caravan specializing in wood and stone business came to the town.

How can such a coincidence be in the world?

A large smuggling network gradually emerged in Xiao Lingyue's mind.

From the unearth of iron ore, to the smelting of crude iron, to the smuggling out of Beijing, to the dying of the gods and turning their hands unconsciously, we walked south along the ferry of the Canglan River and went straight into the territory of Nanyan.

The whole process was linked together, with many people participating, including bandits, caravans, and even officials from the court!

Zhan Beihan sneered when he heard this, and his sharp eyes stabbed at the mansion like a sharp knife.

"You'll know when you go in and take a look!"

The two of them quietly climbed over the courtyard wall and saw the main house with lights on at a glance, with doors and windows tightly closed.

Xiao Lingyue pointed to the side window of the backyard, pulled Zhan Beihan and sneaked over quietly.

Just as I approached the window, a man's voice came from the room.
