After listening to the old man's words, Chunfeng finally understood.
But the methods these people think of are really funny. This rope can ensure that they are not washed away by the sea, but if the boat suddenly capsizes and they can't break free, wouldn't they be killed alive
"Are there any big reefs in the sea nearby?" Chunfeng asked the old man again.
"Yes, there are, but few people go to that reef area, because there have been many accidents there before, and many people in the village died there. Later, that area was designated as a restricted area, and no one has been there anymore. "
The old man continued to sigh.
Chunfeng looked back at Baili Mochen. He was almost certain that the accident was caused by man, but the exact motive was not very clear.
"Let's go back first and then talk about it!" Baili Mochen said as he glanced at Chunfeng and then at the ship opposite.
"kindness!"
Chunfeng nodded in agreement. They couldn't help with the matter here now. There was no sign of anyone on the boat, not even a corpse. The matter must not be that simple.
"Let's go!" Chunfeng looked back again, turned and left.
Back at the inn in the city, Baili Mochen quietly ordered someone to investigate the matter.
Being sensitive, he felt that this matter seemed to have some clues to it.
It is said that since the last agreement in Liaodong was signed, the situation in the Liaodong court has become chaotic.
On one side are the forces of the ambitious Queen Murong, on the other side are the forces of the six princes who are eyeing her, and on the other side are the forces of veterans who support the orthodox prince. It can be said that they are fighting each other.
I heard a few days ago that Queen Murong was recruiting people and making weapons privately. It seemed that she was ready to take action.
"Master, my subordinates have received news that a large number of people suddenly appeared in a hidden village outside the capital of Liaodong. It seems that that place is another new weapons manufacturing den."
Two days later, the hidden guard sent back the news.
"Well, go check who are the people inside and where they come from." Baili Mochen nodded and ordered.
"Yes..." The hidden guard immediately ducked away after receiving the order.
"How is it going? Do you have any clues?" Chunfeng walked in with a plate of washed fruits and asked softly.
"Well, this matter probably has something to do with the Liaodong royal court." Baili Mochen nodded and put down the book in his hand, raised his head and said.
"It's pretty much what I guessed. The current situation in Liaodong is really chaotic."
Chunfeng put a green, crispy and sweet fruit into his mouth, stuffed one into Baili Mochen and said.
"Well, the original internal affairs of Liaodong were not optimistic." Baili Mochen said casually while eating the fruit with a smile.
Well... this fruit is so sweet...
"kindness?"
What does this mean? The amount of information seems to be a bit large. Chunfeng blinked his big eyes and looked at Baili Mochen.
"Last time the eldest prince and Princess Lianhua returned to Liaodong, I gave them some gifts."
Baili Mochen smiled slightly, as if he was talking about something he heard in public.
"No wonder!"
Chunfeng pursed her lips, and she knew that he would not let them go so easily.
"Okay, do you still want to go out to collect that kelp today?" Baili Mochen looked at Chunfeng with a doting look on his face.
"Forget it, I've traveled a lot these days. Let the servants do the rest. I just have a few days to rest."
When he thought about not finding the treasure Tridacna this time, Chunfeng felt a little disappointed. He had seen almost all the seaside scenery these days, and felt that there was nothing interesting, so he thought it would be better to stay in the room and feel comfortable.
"That's good. I'm afraid it's not peaceful outside these days, but it's actually quiet inside the house." Baili Mochen also nodded in agreement.
Just like this, another day passed, and news came from the Hidden Guard again about the group of people who mysteriously appeared outside the capital of Liaodong.
According to the news, these people come from various places, but most of them probably come from the seaside.
It is said that these hands have marks left by nets cast all year round, so they must be fishermen.
As for the other part, those should be people from the surrounding poor mountainous areas.
Only in these backward places, without the supervision of the government, it would be easier to arrest people without being discovered.
"This matter is basically clear." Baili Mochen put down the letter in his hand and handed it to Chunfeng, saying calmly.
"Then what are you going to do with it?" Chunfeng took the letter and read it again, then raised his head and asked.
"Since it's a matter for people from Liaodong, it's up to people from Liaodong to handle it." Baili Mochen looked at the scenery outside the window and said with a half-smile.
"Okay, you have the final say, but if possible, try to protect those innocent people." Chunfeng nodded and said.
"Well, don't worry!" Baili Mochen sat next to Chunfeng and personally peeled a nut for her and put it into Chunfeng's mouth.
"It's delicious. What's the name of this fruit?" Chunfeng opened his mouth to catch it and said happily.
"This is called Lianzhiguo. The fruit is fresh and pleasant. It is a rare variety among dried fruits. It is said to be a specialty of the coastal areas of Liaodong." Baili Mochen looked at the spring breeze and ate it happily. He picked up another one and peeled it slowly. Xu explained.
"Well, it's true, but I don't think I've seen this in the capital. If I take some back, the ladies in the back house will definitely like them more."
Spring Breeze said while tasting the aroma of nuts.
"Well, just say yes!" Baili Mochen lovingly put the second fruit into Chunfeng's mouth.
Looking at the small mouth that was constantly moving in the spring breeze, a certain prince's heart palpitated again.
Not many days later, the elder prince's veteran minister and the sixth prince received an anonymous secret report at the same time.
The secret report stated that Queen Murong colluded with the courtiers, secretly forged weapons, and intended to commit rebellion, and gave the specific location and location.
After receiving the news, the Sixth Prince immediately took action and sent people out to investigate. Once the situation was confirmed, he immediately took action to prepare for personal gains and losses.
Most of the people on the eldest prince's side were conservatives. When they received such news, they immediately wondered if someone had deliberately released false news, hoping to provoke a fight between them and the queen's faction so that they could reap the benefits.
But after all, it was the Sixth Prince's men who were a step faster, but they found some semi-finished weapons, but no other evidence was found.
This made the sixth prince a little annoyed. He was just one step away from catching the evidence and overthrowing the queen.
"Damn it, let her escape again!" The sixth prince Duguwen said with a sinister expression.
"Prince, in my opinion, if you want to overthrow the queen, we alone are not enough. Why don't we cooperate with the eldest prince first..."
The Sixth Prince's confidants gave timely suggestions.
