But according to the intelligence from Wu Shen and Fan Yi, Yiluo Zhirong should have enough food for the winter.
Moreover, after the last incident in Chai Bi, all cities and towns have stepped up their defenses.
Stealing food won't be that easy anymore.
Moreover, Qiuyi is in the shade of Qinghe, and the home base of the Rong people is in the Yang of Qinghe.
Generally speaking, the Yiluo Rong rarely cross the Qingshui to plunder.
And according to Gan Ren's intelligence, Muluotian dispatched this time with less than a hundred people.
"Maybe they didn't come here for food?" Xin asked again.
"But if it's not for food, why?" Rong Jiang said.
Xin looked at Rong Jiang again and said, "Rong, there is one thing...I'm afraid I have to tell you straight away. Do you think Mu Luotian came here for the noble man today?"
"What did you say!?" Rong Jiang was shocked.
If that were the case, it would be troublesome.
He must ensure the safety of that noble man.
Because he knew that this noble man seemed to be traveling with only a few attendants.
If something unexpected happens, it will be a big event that will shock the world!
"Doctor Xinyi, do you know anything?" Rong Jiang asked cautiously.
"What I said, Doctor Qiuyi should know." Xin added, "If Mr. Zhao encounters any danger..."
"I understand!" Rong Jiang looked serious.
Originally, only Qiu Yi knew about Zhao Yang's arrival here.
Zhao Yang came from Wangcheng and was extremely low-key.
Even so, some rumors still leaked out, and some interested people already knew about his itinerary.
For example, Fanshi.
Dr. Ganlu seemed to have seen through everything: "Fan's news is indeed very well-informed."
"Hey, there is no way. With such a big identity and every move he makes, it is difficult to hide it from interested people. What's more, in such a complicated place as the Royal City, there are countless pairs of eyes staring at him." Xin added.
"If Mu Luotian's target is really Zhao Yang, we have to be vigilant." Rong Jiang looked serious.
Xin added: "This is just my guess, maybe it's just a coincidence. Besides, how can a gentleman of the Zhao family not take these into consideration when traveling?"
"Even so, I still have to tell the head of the Zhao family about the appearance of Mu Luotian," Rong Jiang said.
Xin You and Gan Ren nodded.
"Master Zhao, when are you coming?" Xin asked again.
"He should be here around the same time." Rong Jiang said, "I'll send someone to pick him up right now!"
At this moment, Rongzhe walked up from below.
Perhaps out of anxiety, Rongzhe said directly without any salutes: "Father! Something big has happened!"
Rong Jiang turned his head, very angry at his son's rudeness.
"Why are you panicking?" Rong Jiang asked.
"Something bad has happened!" Rongzhe didn't care that Xin was here again and said directly: "That Mu Luotian may be here for the head of the Zhao family!"
"Mu Luotian? How did you know about Mu Luotian?" Dr. Ganlu asked.
"Puren Fanni told me," Rongzhe said.
…
…
After a while, Fan Ni was brought to Gan Ren, Rong Jiang and others.
"Pu Ren, since you knew that Mu Luotian might attack the head of the Zhao family, why didn't you tell him earlier?" Gan Ren was a little angry.
How come this thing is so ignorant!
"You... no one asked me." Fan Ni narrowed his little eyes, looking puzzled: "And you didn't ask us to wait down below."
"Hey...that's all." Gan Ren said.
These things are no longer important. What is important is how to protect Zhao Yang's safety.
"Let's do this. You will go through the hunting ceremony first, and I will send people to meet the head of the Zhao family." Gan Ren said, "We still need to inform Master Shang Junzuo of this matter as soon as possible."
Everyone nodded, this is indeed a top priority.
"Pu people, you don't go anywhere for the time being. You people in Pu Yi stay here and don't go to participate in the field hunting. Although I don't want to say this, where did you get the news and who did you tell the news to?
These matters must be explained clearly to Master Shangjun Zuo." Gan Ren looked serious.
Fan is good at inquiring about information, and he has known these things for a long time.
So the leak of Shangjun Zuo's itinerary could theoretically be leaked by Fan.
Fan Ni was full of bitterness, and his big mouth finally caused trouble.
It would be very serious if the commander-in-chief thought that he had leaked his whereabouts and blamed Fan.
"The news definitely didn't come from Fanshi." Xin added: "Mu Luotian came to Qiuyi three days ago. At that time, Fanshi had just received the news about the general Guan Tianyou.
I don’t think Mu Luotian got the news from Mr. Fan.”
"It's better to wait until Master Junzuo comes to make a decision on these matters." Gan Ren's face was serious: "Xinren, I know that you have always been on good terms with Mr. Fan, but you should also know that if the Zhao family
If the Lord makes any mistake, you and I will not be able to bear the consequences. That is the commander-in-chief of the Jin Kingdom!!!"
The Six Ministers of Jin State are the most powerful people in this land.
Even the emperor will act based on their faces.
If something happens in Wangji Nei, then the towns and counties in their Qingshui area will not be able to escape the problem.
Xin was helpless and could only watch Fan Ni being taken away by the Rong brothers.
Of course, they did not imprison Fan Ni, but the Rong brothers always watched Fan Ni participate in the ceremony before the hunting began, until the superior officer arrived.
People from Puyi were also told not to leave the hunting grounds.
So this field hunting actually turned into a duel between Qiu Yi and Xin Yi.
Fan Ni was dejected. If he, a small official from Puyi, really offended the commander-in-chief of the Jin Kingdom, no one could protect him.
Xin You is not in a hurry.
This is no ordinary trivial matter. Even if the news doesn't spread anywhere, who knows what Zhao Yang would think?
"The current plan is to first ensure Zhao Yang's safety and prevent him from being attacked by Mu Luotian. Secondly, if Mu Luotian can be caught, that would be the best."
Xin You silently made a wish in his heart: "I must make everything safe and sound!"
The ritual of starting the field hunting proceeds in an orderly manner.
When officials came from the countryside, they first read out some ancient and awkward edicts.
It probably means, how great our ancestors were.
A very great ancestor who valued hunting very much.
So we are hunting now to comfort our ancestors...
The process was very long, and Xin had to hold back yawns one after another.
At the same time, he admired the Zhu people from this country very much for actually reading such a long edict word for word.
And he looked so energetic, as if what he was reading now was not the edict for hunting, but the famous "Oath of Tang" written by King Wu when he conquered Zhou.
Finally, the long letter of edict was read.
"This blessing seems to have lengthened the edict again..."
Rong Jiang on the side couldn't help but said.
Next, Fan Ni announced some precautions for field hunting.
At this time, Xinyi and others were sitting on the mats on the ground.
The teams from each township below stood neatly in the open space, listening to what Fan Ni announced.
What is announced is mainly the scope, time and evaluation criteria of the field hunting.
It's actually very simple, just a few nearby mountains.
Within three days and three nights, whichever town hunts the most and best prey will win.
While the young hunters hunted, the nobles rested on the spot.
Drink and have fun.
Puyi has already set up tents and prepared food and wine.
"Jun Xin, I heard Jun Fan mention the matter of guarding against the Rong people. What do you mean, is that we must join forces with the savages and take the initiative to attack?"
Gan Ren, Rong Xuan and Xin again talked about guarding against the Rong people.
The two of them already regarded Xin You as someone who was in the same position as them, so they started discussing these matters with Xin You. This chapter has been completed!
