Chapter 68, the account book was robbed

"A... fortune teller." Qi Shizi did not say Rong Yue's name in the end.He was afraid that his father would know that he did not come to the mining area for the sake of women, so he did not dare to tell him that he went to Yuntai Mountain to have fun.

"Find this fortune teller!" Although King Zhennan felt as if he had been struck by lightning and was heartbroken, he also vaguely believed that this incident was caused by ghosts and gods.

However, he originally did not believe in ghosts and gods, so he searched in his mind, wondering who had the ability to move his mine away?Even if he moved away, there would still be traces.Where to move?If it was man-made, then he would dig up three feet of the ground to find it, and cut into pieces the bodies of those who dared to attack his Zhennan Palace.

However, even if he no longer believes in ghosts and gods, the situation in front of him is indeed beyond human power. It is really unbelievable!

He captured so many miners and casters who mined and cast every day that no one could move such a large mine overnight.

It takes time and manpower to mine those raw ores!Dig out the entire mine and carry it away?It’s incredible!
"Find the escaped workers! I don't believe it. There is no trace of this matter." After Zhennan Wang Qi Yanming calmed down, his face was still extremely ugly and gloomy.

Although the matter felt unbelievable, how could King Zhennan be willing to believe that so much gold, silver and weapons had disappeared without a trace?
At this moment, a man shouted in horror: "Your Majesty, there is a line written here."

King Zhennan walked to the front and saw a line of blood-red characters written on the ground——

"The king of Zhennan prayed to Yanming to listen to the order: Your rebellious intentions are obvious, and it will bring harm to the people, and the gods will not tolerate it. Now I take back the mine as a warning. If you want to avoid this disaster, you can only change your evil to do good, and do good deeds every day to accumulate virtue. , Otherwise, the disaster is not far away.”

Zhennan Wang Qi Yanming felt cold when he saw it. He was shocked and angry, and asked someone to eradicate the words.

Rong Yue wrote this in red water before leaving, wanting to warn King Zhennan so that he would not be angry with the miners and foundry workers who escaped.But Rong Yue didn't know whether her warning would be useful to King Zhennan.

At this time, an accountant came in a hurry and reported to the King of Zhennan that their account books were lost.

"When did you lose it?" King Zhennan was shocked again.

"Yes... maybe two days ago." The accountant shivered.

When King Zhennan heard this, he was even more panicked than if he had lost all his gold, silver, weapons, etc.Because the account book is ironclad evidence that he secretly made weapons, secretly minted gold, silver, and copper coins, and it is also evidence that he has a rebellious intention.If the account book is sent to the palace, the matter will be difficult to solve.

Although he had long been rebellious, he only started recruiting troops after digging the mine in the past two years, and he was not fully prepared.If he was given another five years, he would definitely be fully prepared.By then, even if he raises the flag of rebellion and attacks Kyoto, he will be completely sure to control the overall situation. With at least a [-]% success rate, he will be able to become the leader of the Wei Kingdom.

But he can't do it now. His ambition has just begun and his plan is still in its infancy. If he is discovered, it will only lead to disaster.Now without this batch of gold, silver and weapons, he is like a tiger whose teeth were suddenly pulled out. Not to mention his rebellious intentions, he still has to be wary of facing the man in Beijing.

"Chase! We must recover the account book."

"But it's been missing for two days."

"Whoever gets the account book will definitely try to send it back to the capital and hand it over to the emperor. Hurry up and rush to the capital, and you must intercept the account book."

General Luo: "Your Majesty, your Majesty sent Prince Li Yong and Fourth Master Li Yao to the south some time ago to clear out pirates along the coast of Nanshan. Is there any intention of building a plank road openly and secretly building a warehouse? Your Majesty's intention is not to clear out pirates, but to find out the prince's background. ?" Qi Yanming: "I have been on guard for a long time, so I have been careful during this period to take precautions. It was not until the fourth master disappeared and the prince had returned to the capital that I breathed a sigh of relief. Unexpectedly, I still fell into the emperor's trap. . The fourth master, Li Yao, has an incurable disease and has disappeared, so there is no need to worry. Only the prince Li Yong is cunning. He must have pretended to return to Beijing, but secretly sent someone to stay and steal the account book. General Luo, go there immediately Recover the ledger.”

"Yes." Although General Luo set off immediately, he knew that if the account book fell into the hands of someone sent by the emperor and was lost for two days, what ability would he have to recover it?

King Zhennan’s guess was half right and half wrong.

At this moment, the account book is still on the body of Li Yao's shadow guard Feng Ying.

After Feng Ying stole the account book, he hurriedly brought it back to Beijing on the orders of the fourth master. Naturally, he wanted to hand it over to the emperor so that he could take credit for the fourth master.

However, as King Zhennan guessed, Prince Li Yong was indeed full of tricks.Although the prince returned to Beijing, he sent someone to stay behind to keep an eye on the fourth master.Even though the fourth master was missing, he was still worried, so he sent people to secretly follow the shadow guards who followed Li Yao south.

Xueying and Fengying were both strong in martial arts and brave. Before Rong Yue went to the mining area, the two of them sneaked into the mining area in the middle of the night. After successfully finding the ledger, they stole it and Fengying led the account. Ben returned to Beijing.

Feng Ying is the highest in Qinggong and Wushu among Li Yao's Shadow Guards. He is the leader of the Shadow Guards.At this moment, he was riding a fast horse, carrying his account and rushing back to Beijing day and night.

It's a pity that the praying mantis catches the cicada, and the oriole is behind.

One of the prince's subordinates, Chi Yan, was also one of the prince's shadow guards with extremely high martial arts skills. He had been ordered to lead a few people to keep a close eye on Feng Ying and Xue Ying.

When Feng Ying was halfway back, Chi Yan and several of his companions finally caught up with Feng Ying and found an opportunity to attack Feng Ying in a forest that Feng Ying must pass through on his way back to Beijing.

Feng Ying's Qing Gong was very high, but the prince's shadow guard Chi Yan was by no means inferior to Feng Ying. Moreover, he led three people, a total of four people, to besiege Feng Ying.

"Chi Yan, are you crazy? Although we are each our own masters, we are not enemies." Feng Ying asked angrily while drawing his sword to deal with the siege of four people.However, he knew in his heart that the other party came for the account book.

Chi Ying sneered: "Feng Ying, what you said is really ridiculous! We are all masters, and we all know it. Your master's life and death are unknown. Even if he is still lingering in a corner, he will probably die soon. You Obediently hand over the account book, for the sake of everyone being Shadow Guards, we recommend you to His Highness the Crown Prince, and you can work with us His Highness the Crown Prince!"

"Hmph! Go ahead and dream!" Feng Ying was one against four, and was gradually at a disadvantage.He was forced to abandon his horse and fly onto a branch, but he still could not escape the siege of Chi Yan and the others.

Chi Yan and his three shadow guards all have very high martial arts skills, and Chi Yan is the strongest.Everyone is a shadow guard, and the prince's shadow guard is also carefully selected. Compared with the fourth master's shadow guard, how can it be any worse?

Chi Yan swung his sword fiercely and said slyly: "We can't let him leave. If we don't hand over the account book, there will be only death."

Feng Ying knew that what Chi Yan said was not to threaten him.It would be difficult for him to escape from the siege of four people.What they originally wanted was the account book, but if he insisted on keeping the account book, they would not care about killing him.

By accident, Feng Ying was stabbed with a sword.
