The city gate guard and the caravan leader did not seem to be tough enough, and they had already explained everything clearly before dark. Of course, on the other hand, it can also be seen that Lu Zhisheng still has certain methods.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince, the leader of the caravan has already explained everything."

"Um!"

Li Jiancheng nodded lightly and motioned for Lu Zhisheng to continue.

"The caravan leader's surname is Cai, and he is a direct descendant of the Cai family in Taiyuan. This time he was ordered by his superiors to transport this batch of equipment to the Turks for sale. Moreover, according to what he said, this was not the first time that they The equipment was transported to the Turks for sale. Seven days ago, another direct descendant of the Cai family was also ordered to go to the Turks to sell equipment; ten days ago, a collateral descendant who had a good relationship with the Cai family..."

I don’t know if the caravan leader had the idea of ​​​​death together and told all the members of the Cai family who had gone to the Turks in the recent period.

Perhaps, he wanted to make amends for his sins.

"What about the confession of the city gatekeeper?"

Li Xiuning stood aside and looked at Li Jiancheng without any reaction, so she asked again. Lu Zhisheng had a good impression on her, so she didn't want to involve him because of this incident. Although she knew that Li Jiancheng loved her very much, but It is not easy for her to talk about this kind of thing. Therefore, now she can only try her best to help Lu Zhisheng have a good impression in front of Li Jiancheng.

"Princess Qi, according to the city gate guard, since the founding of the Tang Empire, a total of more than a dozen chambers of commerce have passed through Zhangjiakou. Moreover, the city gate guard seems to want to make a crime and meritorious service. He also contacted some merchants The leader of the team also told the truth about the situation he learned through casual chat."

"Tell me and listen!"

Li Jiancheng was somewhat interested in Lu Zhisheng's additional words. When the city gate guard chose to collude with those chambers of commerce, the leaders of those chambers of commerce naturally regarded the city gate guard as one of their own, and there was no harm in telling him some secret things.

"According to what the guard general said, these chambers of commerce not only sell military supplies to the Turks from Zhangjiakou, but also from Liangcheng County, Fengzhen County, Xinghe County, Huai'an County, etc. near the important town of Datong... there are about twenty places where These chambers of commerce export equipment and supplies outside the Great Wall."

"Good, very good, very good!"

After listening to Lu Zhisheng's words, Li Jiancheng did not get angry, but just showed an inexplicable smile. However, his smile made both Lu Zhisheng and Li Xiuning feel cold. As Li Jiancheng's sister, Li Xiuning understood very well that Li Jiancheng was What a state of anger he was in.

"Brother..."

Li Xiuning wanted to say something, but was stopped by Li Jiancheng with a wave of his hand.

"Xiuning, I will handle this matter, so you don't have to worry." Li Jiancheng said lightly. As for how to deal with these chambers of commerce and the families behind them, Li Jiancheng already had clear ideas.

Since they only have interests in mind and don't care about the lives and deaths of the people, then why should Li Jiancheng worry about their lives!

kill!

Li Jiancheng wanted to use killing to let these profit-seeking businessmen know whether it was more important to earn profits from the people outside the Great Wall or their lives.

"General Lu, after you have handed over everything here, you can leave..."

"The general will obey the order!"

Lu Zhisheng looked indifferent and was not dissatisfied with Li Jiancheng's words. Since this place was under his rule, something like this happened. It was natural for him to be dismissed.

"But, brother, General Lu..."

Lu Zhisheng had no objection, but Li Xiuning became anxious. After spending some time together, she felt that Lu Zhisheng's ability was good. If he was affected by this incident, it would be a big loss for Datang. Therefore

, she was very anxious to plead for Lu Zhisheng.

"Haha, Xiuning, what are you doing in such a hurry? If Kou Zhong sees it, he might be jealous."

Li Jiancheng looked at Li Xiuning's anxious look, with a playful smile on his face.

Seeing Li Jiancheng's expression, Li Xiuning knew that he had been fooled. If Li Jiancheng really wanted to deal with Lu Zhisheng, he would definitely not talk to him with such an expression. This meant that Li Jiancheng had something to say next. It was just to show off to himself,

That's why I didn't finish my sentence.

"snort!"

Li Xiuning twisted her head and pretended to be angry and ignored Li Jiancheng. It was not the first time that Li Jiancheng had teased her like this since she was a child, so she naturally knew that Li Xiuning was not really angry.

Therefore, Li Jiancheng ignored her and turned to speak to Lu Zhisheng.

"General Lu, with your talents, it is a pity to be stationed in Zhangjiakou Town. How about this, I will write a letter of recommendation for you, and you will go to Chang'an and temporarily serve as the Minister of War. I wonder what General Lu wants?"

"I would like to thank His Highness the Crown Prince!"

A hint of joy flashed across Lu Zhisheng's indifferent face, and he was obviously very satisfied with Li Jiancheng's arrangement.

The Fan Yang Lu family is also one of the big families, and naturally has a strong backing in the court. In this way, it is not difficult for Lu Zhisheng to get a good official position in Chang'an. However, he chose a remote place like Zhangjiakou.

Land. Either he has a low status in the Lu family, or he is unwilling to rely on the family's influence, but relies on his own strength.

Now that he is recommended by the prince, his strength is naturally recognized, so what reason do he have to refuse?

Li Xiuning also briefly introduced Lu Zhisheng's situation before, so Li Jiancheng naturally knew which category Lu Zhisheng belonged to. Therefore, there was nothing wrong with recommending him as Minister of War.

As for the former minister of the Ministry of War, he was resigned due to the previous incident involving the six major families. This trip to Zhangjiakou allowed Li Jiancheng to meet a suitable candidate.

After writing the letter of recommendation quickly, Lu Zhisheng hid it close to his body and left.

"'A fair lady, a gentleman is always fond of fighting', the ancients truly do not deceive me!" After Lu Zhisheng left, Li Jiancheng looked at Li Xiuning with a teasing look on his face.

"Humph, it doesn't matter who they are!"

Li Xiuning raised her delicate face proudly. Of course she understood what Li Jiancheng meant. She could also see what Lu Zhisheng meant to her. However, Li Xiuning valued Lu Zhisheng's talent and had no idea about anything else.

The only one who can give her that feeling is Kou Zhong!

"Brother, would you like Xiuning to give you a squeeze on your shoulders..."

"Okay, let's go and rest early. When we arrive at Longquan City tomorrow, we don't know what will happen to us yet." Li Jiancheng stopped Li Xiuning's actions without even thinking about it.

Li Xiuning felt helpless about this.

She knew that Li Jiancheng had understood what she meant.

Li Jiancheng did not have a clear response to the matter at the Chamber of Commerce. However, Li Xiuning knew how Li Jiancheng would choose to deal with it, so she planned to give some advice. After all, the previous incident involving the six major families had already brought very bad consequences to Li Jiancheng.

It was affected. If it happened again, the consequences would obviously be even worse.

Therefore, Li Xiuning does not want this to happen again.
