Xie Rui's confidant looked at the content of the letter and was puzzled.

"I can understand that Your Highness wants food. If you want pigs, cattle and sheep, His Highness wants something good to eat, but this requires cloth, a loom, and grain seeds... Hey, why does it look wrong?"

It is not a fool who can become a royal confidant, and when he thinks about Liang for a while, he feels something is wrong.

"Could it be that His Highness is in trouble over there?"

What troubles do you need to solve?

But just in case, the cronies still decided to make two preparations. They immediately sent people to the Northern Wilderness to investigate Xie Rui's situation. We will definitely deliver everything we need to the designated place within the designated time.

As the great prince of the Jin Kingdom, Xie Rui prepared those things. It was not difficult for his people, and everything was ready on the third day.

Xie Ruixin said in a letter that he was asked to deliver everything to the entrance of the Northern Wilderness in five days.

"Has there been any news from the people sent to the Northern Wilderness yet?"

"My lord, the Northern Wilderness is full of dangers, I'm afraid it won't be so fast."

Mr. Wang was pacing back and forth in the room a little anxiously. He always felt that Xie Rui's letter came too weird. It was not like this when Xie Rui asked for supplies before. He would not write for such a trivial matter, but that letter The letter was indeed in his handwriting.

"My lord, there is no need to be so alarmed. There are only a group of barbarians in the Northern Wilderness. Last time we almost killed them and they didn't do anything. They know the identity of His Highness, and they are afraid of offending Jin, so they definitely dare not act rashly."

Lord Wang also thought so before, but he was very disturbed.

The eldest prince sneaked out this time, and the empress didn't know the situation yet, so he hesitated whether to report the matter to the empress, or if something really happened, they wouldn't have to live.

In a blink of an eye, the appointed time came, and Mr. Wang personally brought the supplies to the designated place.

Qiao Yang had already brought people there to wait.

When Mr. Wang and the others approached, Qiao Yang looked up and down a lot.

"You are Mr. Wang?"

Master Wang has never met Qiao Yang, and doubts flashed in his eyes, "Your Excellency is..."

"I am called by His Royal Highness to meet you, have you brought everything?"

My lord Wang saw that he was very imposing, and he didn't look guilty at all, and he was a little puzzled for a while, "Everything has been prepared according to His Highness's request. I don't know how His Highness is over there. Can there be any progress?"

Qiao Yang laughed, but this smile seemed a little nasty to Mr. Wang, "He is doing very well, eating well, sleeping well, and he doesn't have to worry about the mine. Go and count things."

"yes."

Several people stepped forward to check the goods on the car.

Master Wang felt more and more that they were robbers.

"What did this little brother do next to His Highness before, it seems a bit unfamiliar."

Qiao Yang said with an unrestrained smile: "You see, it seems normal to me, I usually don't appear in front of him."

The uneasiness in Mr. Wang's heart became stronger, but Qiao Yang didn't dare to force it due to the large number of people, "Your Highness has been out for so long, and your majesty has been worried. Please tell me your majesty, and your majesty will find a way to come back before the end of the month." Go to the palace, don't spoil other more important things."

Lord Wang's words were nothing more than hinting, reminding Qiao Yang that Xie Rui's backing to the Jin royal family is by no means easy to provoke, but Qiao Yang doesn't like this.

"My lord, things are fine."

At this time, the person who went to inspect the goods came back.

These words deepened the smile on Qiao Yang's face, "When I got the things, I will send them to His Highness as soon as possible. You should go back first."

Seeing that Qiao Yang was about to leave, Master Wang hurriedly stepped forward to stop him and said, "I don't know if His Highness has enough people, but I just brought a few more people here today, let them go back to help His Highness."

Qiao Yang raised his head and glanced at those people. He was not stupid, how could he fail to see the suspicion in Mr. Wang's eyes, there were only a few people, and they had to obediently work as coolies in the city of Tiankui.

"Okay, let them follow in the team."

Seeing Qiao Yang's agreement, Mr. Wang's doubts have not been dispelled. He only hopes that these people can pass the news back to him as soon as possible after they go in.

Master Wang walked back anxiously, but bumped into the person who was sent to inquire about the news a few days ago.

"My lord, my lord, something is wrong."

Master Wang's complexion changed slightly, "What's wrong?"

"The younger ones met people from the southern country when they went to the Northern Wilderness to inquire about news. They said that the barbarians in the Northern Wilderness suddenly attacked them and the eldest prince a few days ago, and they were caught off guard. They got it."

Lord Wang's face was pale, and he clenched his hand, "You said the eldest prince was arrested?"

"Yes, my lord, let's quickly find a way to rescue the eldest prince. If the empress knows that such a big incident has happened to the eldest prince, we don't even want to live."

Lord Wang fell to the ground, but when he thought of the message Xie Rui sent him, he forced himself to calm down again.

Those people probably want to use the First Prince to get more things that are beneficial to them, so the First Prince should not be in danger for his life for a while.

Although he was afraid, Mr. Wang had no choice but to report the situation of the eldest prince to his empress. The matter was beyond his control. Even if he was punished, he would not dare to hide it anymore.

Lord Wang was jumping in a hurry, but Qiao Yang hummed happily all the way back to the city of Tiankui.

"Send all the things to the warehouse outside the palace and put them away. After the city lord comes back, ask the city lord to have a look."

"yes."

The Jin people who came back with Qiao Yang were caught and blindfolded by Qiao Yang before they entered the city, and they were thrown directly into the dungeon.

On the other side, Su Yu is leading people to work in the mine in full swing.

When she came, Xiao Jin selected for her a lot of people who were very experienced in mining and mining. In order not to arouse suspicion from others, those people dressed as officers and soldiers and mixed in the ranks of officers and soldiers.

The second day they arrived in Tiankui City, Su Yu brought them here.

After surveying, they guessed that there may be a lot of iron ore in this mine, and it is a rare large mine.

Mining requires digging wells. They don’t have reinforced concrete, so they can cut wood to fix the dug mine shafts with wood to prevent collapse.

Su Yu asked all the officers and soldiers from Chu to help the mine, assigned personnel to guard at each point, and three teams patrolled non-stop for 12 hours, just because he was afraid that people would disturb the process at the critical moment of mining.

"City Master, you've been tired all morning, and it's almost noon, why don't you eat something first?"

Doing things in winter consumes more energy. Su Yu stood outside the mine for so long, his face was flushed by the mountain wind.
