The Goryeo army, which had been called out for a long time, finally officially set off.
Moreover, he still walked around the market with swagger and swagger.
The scenes on the surface can be said to be well done, and they look like they are helping each other in a righteous manner.
This move can not only enhance national pride, but also silence Qi Xiaotong. Why not do it?
What's more important is that this operation is just like a military exercise, it can be carried out without any pressure and will never encounter any danger.
Not only did the Fuso army return in defeat, but its emperor also died. How could such a remnant army have any combat effectiveness?
Moreover, they have now retreated to the east without any support. Even if the Korean army pursues them quickly, it is impossible for them to engage in another encounter.
In other words, this trip is just a virtual tour, and there is no possibility of using force.
Since there is no loss, why not do it?
Qi Xiaotong naturally also got the news of Qiong Jun's small victory. Since his father is safe and sound, let the King of Korea do what he wants!
But what she didn't expect was that her father would move to Jiaodong after the war.
But as soon as she thought about it, she understood the intention.
As for the supplies carried by the Qiong Army, even if it takes another two months, it is impossible to be exhausted. In this case, how can there be any possibility of exhaustion?
My father's intention was to use this to stabilize Da Feng's court, and also to make a subtle gesture of 'showing weakness' to Goryeo.
An army that cannot even receive supplies cannot have long-term plans. Either advance or retreat will happen soon.
In addition to the above, there is another special purpose, which is to create a reason for yourself to stay in Korea.
If someone asks you when you will leave, you can answer that your father will pick you up and leave immediately.
Now, the big things have been handled properly, and all that's left is to find out where Emperor Li Hongyu is being held.
In fact, during this period, the Shi brothers were never idle. Whenever night fell, they would quietly go out and collect information.
Regrettably, all to no avail.
This is not to say that the two of them were lazy and careless, but they really didn't find anything special.
They searched almost all the prisons in the royal city, but still couldn't find any clues.
If the dark side doesn't work, we can only use the bright side.
As a result, Qi Xiaotong began to travel around Goryeo official circles, trying to use benefits to pry open the mouths of those who wanted to.
Don't tell me, this trick really has some effect.
Under the bombardment of money-like sugar-coated bullets, some valuable relevant information was actually discovered.
People in the official circles told that only the king knew the location where Li Hongyu was imprisoned. Even the state counselor Kim Yunho did not know the specific details and only had a superficial understanding.
In other words, this is highly confidential and cannot be understood by outsiders.
If you want to know, you have no choice but to beg your Majesty.
There is no need to think about the King of Korea, because he has already rejected it once. If you continue to ask questions, your motives will inevitably be exposed, which will be counterproductive.
However, they also inadvertently revealed another piece of news.
Although it is unclear, it has some reference value.
He said that Jin Liufu once mentioned inadvertently that Emperor Dafeng studied farming in a certain place and was said to have gained a lot from it.
As for where he studied, it is not particularly clear. Because, the king did not specifically explain.
Farming land?
That is definitely not within the royal city.
At the very least, it is the private land of the official family. How can there be any fertile land for you to cultivate in the city?
After returning, Qi Xiaotong immediately summoned the Shi brothers for a secret talk.
"Judging from the content of the news, Li Hongyu should be imprisoned in a certain farm or royal official land. It's no wonder that we couldn't find a clue before. But we never thought that the problem actually lies here!"
"Guantian, are we not familiar with each other? How should we explore this?"
Regarding this, Xiaotong couldn't come up with a good plan and could only analyze it from a broad perspective: "We are not familiar with the place where we are born, so we can only try to explore. There is no other way."
After a pause, he continued: "In terms of investigation, the royal family can be investigated first, then the princes, and finally, the ordinary officials. However, if we encounter any special villa or hidden farm, we can also You have to take advantage of the situation and feel it out.”
"This...Okay!" Shi Liao nodded in agreement, but the next second he said with a bitter face: "Miss, both of my brothers are thieves, and have no experience as scouts. You ask us to go visit the people. It’s really a bit incompatible with this place!”
oh? Is that so?
Why do I feel like my logic is wrong?
Qi Xiaotong thought for a while and said with a smile: "Let's just think of this operation as stealing the emperor's imperial seal. In this case, you will feel motivated."
Um?
Stealing a jade seal?
Don't tell me, if you really think about it, it feels a lot smoother.
Isn't this how the matter of stealing treasures was figured out step by step?
"Have you figured it out yet?"
"I understand, I understand! To rescue the Emperor this time, we must do something for him. Otherwise, wouldn't it be a waste of time? The Tao says that thieves will not escape. Since I am on the Tao, I can't Broken the rules of Grandmaster."
Uh...okay!
If things really come true, even if you don't go your way, the emperor will give you the rewards you deserve.
As the king of a country, how could he treat his heroes badly?
After laughing for a while, Qi Xiaotong corrected himself and said: "You must seize the time for the next action. In short, do it as quickly as possible, and don't delay deliberately. You know, after my father returned from the Jiaodong Peninsula, we will not No reason to stay any longer.”
Upon hearing this, the Shi brothers quickly clasped their fists and said, "Don't worry, eldest lady, I will do my best to find out the weird mystery in this. I will never let your trip go without success."
"Well, in addition to the investigation, you must also pay attention to keeping secrets and not letting others know about our action plan. In other words, keep your mouth shut and don't let the news leak out."
"I will, I will!"
Having said that, the Shi brothers were ordered to leave.
Qi Xiaotong looked at their departing figures with a hint of melancholy.
It is not difficult to see from the situation that the place where Li Hongyu is imprisoned is definitely a special place and will definitely be heavily guarded. If it was an ordinary place, there was no way he wouldn't know about Jin Liufu.
This situation also increases the difficulty of rescue. If you are not careful, you may alert the snake.
The consequence of alerting the enemy is to break up the relationship and directly confront them. At that time, it was the most dangerous moment.
Whether he and his party can escape safely depends on whether this matter can be completed smoothly.
In short, I hope everything goes as planned and don't cause any unnecessary complications.
Also, I hope that my father can judge the situation and delay it if possible, so as to buy time for himself.
