Chapter 1013 Surprised and troubled (3)

"I have seen General Lu, General Leng." Zhang Baiwan shrank his neck and bowed his hand when he saw Lu Jinxian and Leng Huai who were on duty. Although he wanted money, it was the first time he had faced soldiers like Lu Jinxian and others with a murderous aura. As for the generals he met in Nanjing, it was obviously not worth mentioning compared to Lu Jinxian and others.

Lu Jinxian smiled and said, "Mr. Zhang doesn't have to be too polite. This time it's thanks to Mr. Zhang."

Zhang Baiwan waved his hands repeatedly and said, "I dare not, I dare not, just call Zhang Baiwan. Since it is the order of Princess Ding, how dare we not obey the order? General, don't worry, after today, I guarantee that Mo Jingli will never be able to transport half of the grain from Jiangnan again."

Lu Jinxian nodded with satisfaction, looked at Zhang Baiwan's still a little nervous, and comforted with a smile: "Don't worry, Mr. Zhang, the princess has already made arrangements. This general promises that even if the news of your surrender to the Ding Prince's Mansion reaches Jiangnan, your family will not be in any danger."

Zhang Baiwan's eyes lit up. What they were most worried about doing these things was that they were discovered by Mo Jingli. After all, their foundation was still in Jiangnan, and Mo Jingli had the final say in Jiangnan.

"Master Zhang, there is one thing you need to go back to Jiangnan. I wonder if it is possible?" Mo Xiuyao, who sat on the side and didn't speak, suddenly spoke. In order to hide his whereabouts, Mo Xiuyao has always been easy to face in the army. Without the obvious white hair and the usual face, even if his awesome momentum is amazing, it is difficult for people to associate him with the deceased King Ding.

Zhang Baiwan hesitated for a moment, looked at Lu Jinxian above and said, "This one is..."

Lu Jinxian said: "This is Mr. Ye."

Although Zhang Baiwan didn't know who Mr. Ye was, at least he still remembered that Princess Ding was named Ye. Now that Princess Ding is gone, isn't Princess Ding's mansion just Princess Ding's house? And looking at Lu Jinxian's attitude, he knew that this person could not be offended. He quickly said respectfully: "Prince, please give me instructions." Mo Xiuyao took out a letter and handed it to Zhang Baiwan, and said: "Please take this letter back and deliver it to the person on the envelope."

Zhang Baiwan was stunned and said with some doubts: "That's it?" He originally thought it was something important, but he didn't expect that he would just send a letter. Anyone could do such a thing. This Young Master Ye called him to deliver the letter, which made him feel a little suspicious.

Mo Xiuyao smiled faintly and said, "Mr. Zhang doesn't need to hesitate. It's really just a letter. It doesn't matter who will deliver the letter, but... the people from the Ding Prince's Mansion can easily attract other people's attention after entering Jiangnan, so I want to bother you."

This was not a big deal, so Zhang Baiwan naturally would not refuse. He put away the letter and nodded, "Please rest assured, I will definitely deliver the letter to you later." Mo Xiuyao nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Master Zhang just sends the letter to you. I can guarantee that instead of the princess... I will never treat the Zhang family badly in the future."

Zhang Baiwan was happy. Seeing that Lu Jinxian and others looked ordinary, it seemed that Mr. Ye really had the ability to make decisions on behalf of Princess Ding. The smile on his face suddenly became even worse, and he nodded repeatedly and said, "Young Master, don't worry, please."

After sending Zhang Baiwan away, Leng Huai frowned and said, "Prince, this Zhang Baiwan is too greedy for money, I'm afraid it's not that reliable."

Mo Xiuyao raised his eyebrows and smiled, "If Ali chose him to cooperate instead of others, it proves that he has this value. And... greed for money is not a bad thing. People die for money and birds die for food. If he has real skills, I don't mind letting him take more." But if it is too much, he will not guarantee that he will not even let his family secrets spit out.

"But... the news we received was that this person had some unclear relationship with Xiling." Leng Huai frowned. The letter left by Princess Ding when she left said that this person should not be trusted.

Mo Xiuyao was not surprised and smiled and said, "He is a businessman, so he will not put the eggs in the same basket."

"What is the letter the prince wrote to him?" Yun Ting asked curiously.

Mo Xiuyao said: "It is written that... King Ding is not dead yet, and is now seriously injured and dying. The secret guards of the Ding Palace, hidden in the south of the Yangtze River, go to Nanzhao to borrow troops to relieve the Princess Ding being trapped in Feihong Pass."

Everyone was confused and asked Nanzhao to borrow troops. Their situation has not yet been broken to that level, right? What's more... Nanzhao had just had civil strife for a few years and had been entangled with Xiling for a while. Even if the country's efforts were full, how many soldiers could they borrowed?

After thinking for a while, He Su said, "The prince suspected that Zhang Baiwan was Lei Zhenting's person?" If Zhang Baiwan was really Lei Zhenting's person, he would never go back to Jiangnan after receiving this letter. Instead, he sent it directly to Lei Zhenting's hand. Mo Xiuyao shook his head and said, "He is definitely not Lei Zhenting's person now, but it may not be possible after he reads this letter."

Everyone looked at each other and realized that this was a test for the prince to the wealthy businessman in Jiangnan led by Zhang Baiwan. If he chose the wrong choice...

Yun Ting frowned and said, "Will this be too... After all, maybe Zhang Baiwan doesn't have this intention now." He deliberately aroused other people's unscrupulous intentions, although most of this is attributed to the lack of mind of these people. However, most of the people in this world were ordinary people with weak minds. As long as they were not given a chance, they might never betray them.

Mo Xiuyao said calmly: "The Jiangnan will soon change the day, and then... these people will become very important. Instead of asking these people who are swaying left and right to ruin my affairs, I would rather clean them up and replace them with no strangers." This approach may be a bit cold, but Mo Xiuyao needs to consider too many things. He is responsible for the rise and fall of the entire Ding Palace and the Mo family army, and he does not have the ability to deal with personal life and death, innocentness or not. Besides, he left them a chance, right?

After looking at Mo Xiuyao's cold eyes, Yun Ting sighed in his heart and stopped talking. He understood what King Ding meant. Compared to these old men of the Mo family army who had experienced many things, he was obviously too soft-hearted and innocent.
