On the street in the dusk, a little beggar was hungry and cold, and finally couldn't hold on and fell in the dust.Just as Shen tide and his carriage were passing by, he immediately stopped and rescued the person.The boy woke up slowly, and his first reaction was not to cry and beg for mercy, but to bow deeply and thank Chen Xihe. However, he insisted on refusing to accept unwarranted charity. The integrity between his eyebrows and eyes was completely different from ordinary beggars.
After careful questioning, I found out that both of his parents were generals guarding the border. After they died on the battlefield, the orphans of the loyal soldiers were placed in the Lonely Garden in the city, where many children with his similar background lived.Shen Xihe was worried and immediately rushed to Loneliness Garden with his people. As soon as he entered the door, he bumped into Xiao Changying - he completely ignored his noble status as a prince and was rolling up his sleeves to clean the wounds of injured children with his own hands.The boy was afraid of pain and twisted around and refused to cooperate. Xiao Changying had always been helpless. During the stalemate, Shen Xihe came up with a smile and a plate of candied fruits. With a few words of soft words, he coaxed the child to obediently stretch out his arms, with gentle and appropriate movements throughout the process.

Xiao Changying stood aside, looking at the soft light in her eyes, and his heart seemed to be lightly hit by something.Shen tide and Shen Xi led the rescued boy to Xiao Changying, pointing out that the boy had extraordinary muscles and strength, and begged him to give this talent a place so that the child could go to the military camp to experience and not lose the reputation of his parents.Xiao Changying immediately agreed happily, but his expression suddenly became a little darker, and he confessed his doubts: The orphan of Zhonglie was living in such poverty and poverty, and the soldiers who were bleeding on the front line might not be able to secure their military pay. He begged Shen Xihe to help secretly investigate the matter.

At the same time, Xiao Huayong has already found out the details of Dong Biquan, the Secretary of the Ministry of Household Affairs - this person has climbed from a ninth-grade clerk to a high position. Behind him, Ye Qi is secretly supporting him, and Ye Qi has already collaborated with the enemy and treason. When this line is drawn, Dong Biquan's corruption will be clearly revealed.He then quietly laid out a chess game to uproot the moth.At the same time, Shen Xihe also found out that the pay of the frontline troops was indeed being withheld at all levels, but the defense of the household warehouse was like an iron barrel. After several searches in Bu Shulin, there was no way to sneak in. Shen Xihe thought for a moment and pointed at the list of Lonely Garden on the case: Perhaps, this garden full of orphans of loyal martyrs is the key to breaking the situation.
In order to protect Bu Shulin's identity as a woman, Shen Xihe specially found a kind of agarwood fragrance commonly used by men, and carefully masked her unique fragrance, so that she could sneak in without any flaws.Dong Biquan soon discovered that on the day when the grain and grass were shipped, someone was actually checking the details of Lonely Garden. He knew that the hole in the grain and grass that had been stolen by corruption was about to be unstoppable, so he hurriedly sent people to other places to purchase grain and grass at low prices to fill the gap, in an attempt to get away with it.But his thoughts had been predicted by Xiao Huayong. The latter had already ordered Tianyuan to find a reliable grain merchant and pretended to sell the grain to Dong Biquan at a low price. He also picked up two death row inmates from prison to make secret arrangements, waiting for the opportunity to accelerate Dong Biquan's defeat.
In the morning of the next day, Cui Jinbai reported to the emperor the process of chasing the two fugitives. It was logical that he mentioned that a large amount of grain and grass with official tax stamps were found in the Zhuangzi where the fugitives were hiding. The owner of the Zhuangzi was none other than Dong Biquan, the Minister of Household Affairs.Dong Biquan immediately came out to defend the village, claiming that the village had been abandoned for many years and was clearly deliberately framed.But Cui Jinbai then presented the grain merchant's transaction deed and witness statements. Dong Biquan turned pale. In a panic, he only dared to say that he was buying grain to supply the front line, but he could not explain a word about the whereabouts of the large amount of grain that had been missing from the warehouse.
Emperor Long Yan was furious and immediately ordered a thorough investigation into Dong Biquan's corruption case.Within a few days, all the evidence of Dong Biquan's collusion with Ye Qi and collusion with the enemy and treason was verified, and he was immediately thrown into a prison.Xiao Huayong came to prison alone, and on the condition of saving the lives of his wife and children, he asked the man behind the cherry poison.
The characteristics of that poison are highly similar to the secret poison of the Western Regions. Following this clue, we may be able to dig out the truth about old cases from back then.A few days later, all the frontline soldiers finally received their long-overdue military pay, and military morale was greatly boosted. This corruption case that affected both the government and the opposition was finally brought to an end.Xiao Changying personally carved a monument for the loyal martyrs who died in the battle. When he was carving the last knife, his fingertip was cut by a stone chip and blood seeped out. Shen Xihe felt soft when he saw it. He stepped forward to get the wound medicine and then bandaged him tenderly. He was completely unaware of Xiao Changying in front of him, and even the tips of his ears were so nervous that they turned red.
Xiao Huayong summoned a group of secret guards late at night. Everyone thought that there were urgent secret orders to be executed. Unexpectedly, the master's face was full of depression, and he was actually worried that Shen Xihe and Xiao Changying had gotten too close recently.The secret guards looked at each other and came up with ideas, advising him that instead of worrying secretly, it would be better to personally take action and bring people to his side.On this moonless night on the long street, Xiao Changying happened to stumble upon the assassination of Prince Xiao Huayong. The robber tried to kill him, but he immediately stepped forward, repelled the assassin with a few blows, and protected the prince.
On the pretext of thanking his ninth brother Xiao Changying for saving his life, Xiao Huayong took him to the most famous restaurant in the city and exchanged glasses with each other. Hearing Xiao Changying's heartfelt admiration, he felt that the prince's brother was broad-minded and truly cared about the world.The two talked until late at night, and then rode a horse together to go out of the city. It rained heavily on the way, so they had to hide in an ancient temple in the mountains for shelter.On the pillars in the hall, there are impressively engraved inscriptions left by General Meng. The vigorous writing is full of the spirit of the family and the country.

Xiao Huayong struck while the iron was hot and advised him not to live up to his good martial arts skills, but to go to the front line like his grandfather, display his ambitions on the battlefield, and protect the country from harm.Xiao Changying was filled with enthusiasm after hearing this, and he immediately agreed and rushed to the border one day to fight against the enemy and protect the country.
