   Chapter 891 Chapter Ninety · Doubt

  If it were someone else, Song Xiangyu would never be in the mood to take care of him at this time, but it was Su Yao who came over, so he stopped, glanced at her and said softly, "Miss Su, you already know about this, right?"

  Su Yao heard about this from Princess Eleven.

Xiao Heng's accident was a major event. Emperor Yuanfeng urgently summoned the cabinet to discuss matters, and he could not hide it for a long time. Everyone with a head and face already knew about it. Princess Eleven couldn't hide the anxiety and panic, and told Su Yao carefully about it. , and euphemistically revealed that this time it was not only Xiao Heng who was burned beyond recognition, but all the people who followed Xiao Heng were wiped out.

   In other words, even Su Rong died.

Princess Eleven has been with Su Yao for a few months now. She has a very good relationship with Su Yao. She also knows how good the relationship between Su Yao and Su Rong is. comforted her for a while.

  Su Yao was not as agitated as she had expected, nor did she jump into a rage, and even frightened her, for fear that Su Yao would not be able to think about it, and kept Su Yao to live in her bedroom again and again.

   But Su invites him down, not because she is not sad, but she has never believed in fate.

   If it was said that Xiao Heng and Su Rong could be killed silently, she would be even more unconvinced.

  Since she didn't believe it, before she saw the bodies of Su Rong and Xiao Heng, she naturally had no reason to break down.

   She nodded: "I heard something, Uncle Song must have just returned from the saint? Can you tell me what you know?"

  People outside only know that Xiao Heng and Su Rong are dead, but how can ordinary people know the specific inside story? Even the Eleventh Princess knew about this, and more of it was a question and a shake of his head.

  Song Xiangyu hummed, rubbed his temples and made a gesture, motioning for Su Yao to follow him into the tent.

When he entered the tent, he let Su Yao sit first, and then repeated the content of Zhao's notification to the government's memorial, and then said: "He said in the memorial that the grandson and his entourages Yong Dingbo and Yongning eldest princess All the concubines were killed in the fire, and by the time the officials arrived, the assassins had already run away, and now they have made every effort to capture the assassins in Zhaotong, and I believe there will be results soon."

   Capture assassins?

  Su Yao was silent for a while. Seeing Song Xiangyu taking out the map and studying it carefully, he asked softly, "Is Zhaotong far from Dali?"

  Song Xiangyu raised his eyes and glanced at her: "Far, they just went to Yunnan from the border of Guangxi, and they only entered the territory of Yunnan after entering Zhaotong."

"Is Mouton's power so huge in Yunnan?" Su Yao asked with a blank face: "I heard that Yunnan is divided into internal and external, which is commonly known as the land outside the three rivers and not suitable for flowing, and the inside of the three rivers. It is suitable for flow and not for soil, that is, the hinterland is still a general state capital and county, and in remote areas, Xuanwei Division is set up, and local magistrates and local magistrates are set up, so that the local natives can govern the natives, right?"

   A trace of surprise flashed in Song Xiangyu's eyes, and he did not expect that Su Yao would even know this.

But then he nodded his head in admiration: "That's right, the separation of internal and external governance is indeed beneficial. For a long time, the natives were still keeping their own feet, but this also has disadvantages. The disadvantage is that the natives keep their own feet, yes It is built on the basis that the local toasts are also self-disciplined and obedient to the court. Once the local toasts have two hearts, things will become very difficult. This is why the rebellion of the natives continued for more than ten years. Mouton's Both father and brother were single-minded towards the imperial court, so when they were in power, the natives were obedient, and there was no major incident. But once something happened to them, it was Mouton with wolf ambitions who succeeded the throne, and things changed. It's different, the local people don't know how he came to power, they just worship the chieftain and obey the chieftain's decision."

Therefore, when he learned that the court had accepted Miss Mu San and Mu Qinglu, Mou Tong immediately incited the calm natives to make trouble again, and Mou Tong did not leave any room for this time, and would support Miss Mu San. It turned out that the old chieftains were all slandered as sinners who colluded with the court, wantonly slaughtering dissidents.

   But it is just like the doubts raised by Su Yao.

  Yunnan is divided into internal and external, and the place where the court can control and intervene in the affairs of the natives is limited, because after all, the gap is quite deep, and the local only recognizes the chieftain and not the government.

   But in the same way, these state capitals set up in the hinterland do not have to be subject to any jurisdiction over the chieftain.

  In this case, how did Mouton’s forces penetrate so many prefectures, assassinate Xiao Heng in Zhaotong, and set fire to more than 500 people in the post house?

   This is simply a dazzling doubt.

  Song Xiangyu snorted coldly and pointed out bluntly: "This matter has become more suspicious. If the so-called assassins can flow all the way from Dali to Zhaotong, it can only be said that Yunnan really needs to be pacified."

  Su Yao knew that he had understood what he meant, and also said: "One more thing, Uncle Song thinks that His Royal Highness Taisun is the kind of person who has no ability to fight back?"

  Song Xiangyu looked at her deeply and shook his head: "Of course not."

   He would never believe that Song Heng would be burned to death without the ability to fight back.

"Then let's assume that nothing happened to His Royal Highness Taisun and my brother. If they didn't have an accident, but they didn't contact the Zhaotong government, what would happen? Is it a real assassin?" Su Yao pointed out sharply, seeing Song Xiangyu suddenly looking up at him, he continued to meet his gaze calmly and continued: "Uncle Song is going to Zhaotong, I'm afraid it will be as soon as possible."

  Otherwise, Xiao Heng and Su Rong were afraid that they would be really attacked.

  Song Xiangyu was horrified, and immediately stood up: "I'll go to see the Holy Lord."

What Su Yao said was that if Xiao Heng and Su Rong were all right, but Zhaotong said that Xiao Heng and Su Rong were dead, and they wanted to track down the murderer. Are they looking for the real assassin or Xiao Heng and Su? Rong them? If so, then Xiao Heng and Su Rong are really dangerous.

He nodded to Su Yao, and then went to see Emperor Yuanfeng non-stop, because all this was just speculation for the time being, and he naturally couldn't say that they must have done something when Zhao informed the government, but he repeatedly reiterated that he would set off immediately. to Yunnan.

  Emperor Yuanfeng knew him very well. Seeing him in such a hurry, he pondered for a moment, and he urged the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Personnel to step up the arrangement of manpower, so as to cooperate with Song Xiangyu and set off immediately.

   At this moment, the old lady Su, who is far away in the capital, doesn't know what happened.
