"That's a good idea. The family cherishes reputation and face, but it's a pity that where can these two be both. After hiding in the alley and listening to his subordinates' report on the current situation, Xie Yaoguang let out a laugh in his throat.

When Jiang Yan was leading people to inspect, he happened to see Xie Yaoguang standing in the alley not far away, and couldn't help but be surprised, "Hey, Miss Xie, why are you here?" Are you here to see our Highness?"

Hearing this, Xie Yaoguang's gaze was fixed on Jiang Yan, which caused a chill to run around Jiang Yan.

Jiang Yan glanced at Xie Yaoguang's face, hurriedly took a step back and smiled: "It's me who has no words, I'll leave now."

"Stop, Centurion Chiang? Do you think the centurion is too idle? Xie Yaoguang squinted his eyes, looked at Jiang Yan with a smile, and deliberately bit the three words centurion extremely hard.

After hearing this, Jiang Yan immediately restrained his grin-and-laugh appearance, and bowed to Xie Yaoguang with a solemn expression, "It's the last general who has no mouth to hide, and I hope that Miss Xie Haihan." ”

"Jiang Yan, your ability is indeed good. It's just that your unabashed temperament needs to be changed, and I don't want you to cause trouble for your Highness. Xie Yaoguang smiled, glanced at Jiang Yan coldly, and said in a deep voice: "Woe comes from the mouth, I hope you can understand these four words."

After Jiang Yanshen glanced at Xie Yaoguang, he bowed down and said solemnly: "Last general, remember Miss Xie's teachings."

After finishing speaking, Xie Yaoguang stopped looking at Jiang Yan, turned around and left.

Seeing Xie Yaoguang leaving, Jiang Yan touched his nose and glanced at his subordinates, who looked at each other and nodded, saying that they would never say much about today's events. Jiang Yan was satisfied and took them to continue the search.

With Ye Linchen's help, Jing Zhaoyin and the people from the Criminal Department searched smoothly. The other mansions all opened the door for Ye Linchen to search, and the Lin family also had to open the door to let Ye Linchen's men enter the mansion to search.

During the search, Jing Zhaoyin and the people of the Criminal Department found traces of mud in the backyard of a mansion that had been abandoned for many years next to the Lin Mansion.

Gao Yuyan naturally did not let go of this anomaly, and immediately ordered someone to rummage through this place. Sure enough, after some excavation, a secret door was turned out. After sending someone to inform Jing Zhaoyin immediately, he immediately led someone to open the secret door and personally took someone down to check.

There is a secret passage hidden under the secret door, and there are wall candles on the surrounding walls every few steps. This arrangement is conducive to them to see all the layouts clearly, Gao Yuyan walked inside, and when they came to the end, they saw a pile of neatly arranged wooden boxes.

After thinking for a while, Gao Yuyan ordered his subordinates to step forward and smash open the box, and when he opened the box, he saw a snow-white crystal. Seeing this, Gao Yuyan stepped forward and twisted a little crystal, and a trace of saltiness spread on the tip of his tongue. After glancing at the other boxes again, a trace of fierceness flashed in Gao Yuyan's eyes.

These people are really big dealers. These small boxes are related to the livelihood of all people in the world.

When the people from the Criminal Department came up with the box, the prince's father-in-law, Lin Qixuan, was stunned for a while. If all these things have been transferred here, why can they still be discovered? Only him, the crown prince and the prince's henchmen know about the secret passage here, why did it leak out?

However, Lin Qixuan naturally didn't dare to say these things, so he had to shout loudly that he was wronged, and these things were clearly planted by someone. Lin Qixuan shouted like this, and there were more and more people watching the excitement, after all, selling illicit salt is a big crime in this dynasty.

Seeing that there were more and more people gathered at the door, Lin Qixuan became more and more anxious. Several times I wanted to send someone to ventilate the news, but I was sent back.

Until Ye Linchen received the news and dared to come to this abandoned mansion, Lin Qixuan originally wanted to argue with reason, and when he saw Ye Linchen's cold gaze, he had to close the words to his lips. looked at Ye Linchen blankly.

As for Xue Guogong's soldiers, they had already disappeared when the private salt was found.

The illicit salt was handed over to the Criminal Department as evidence for preservation, and the rest of the matter was to find out who was selling the illicit salt. Even though Lin Qixuan kept saying that he was wronged, Gao Yuyan really didn't believe what Lin Qixuan said.

The prince couldn't help but be angry when he found out the illegal salt in the Lin family, especially when he heard that it was the Xue Guogong Mansion that did not hesitate to search the Guangzhai Fang in order to arrest the bandits, so that the people of the Criminal Department and Jing Zhaoyin could take advantage of it. Especially he didn't expect that Ye Linchen would dare to help Xue Guogong's Mansion, was he really wooed by King Shou.

It seems that he has to be careful, and he just hopes that there will be good news from Su Qinglin's side.

Ye Linchen also personally entered the palace to ask Emperor Li for his guilt, and after listening to Ye Linchen's words, Emperor Li not only did not scold Ye Linchen, but praised Ye Linchen and changed his attitude in the past.

Ming Zhaoyi heard that Ye Linchen was overjoyed, and after retiring from the palace maids, she left the mother and son alone. Ming Zhaoyi knew that Ye Linchen had something to say to her, but she didn't say anything for a long time.

But what she didn't expect was that Ye Linchen would say something that shocked her.

"Mother, I have decided to fight for that supreme position. For the sake of those who have been sleeping for the long time. Ye Linchen suddenly got up and stood in front of the window with his hands in his hands, his tone sincere.

Ming Zhaoyi looked at Ye Linchen scrutinically, and said softly, "Have you decided?"

"Yes."

The sonorous and powerful word is like a hammer falling to the ground.

"As long as you decide, the mother will support you at all costs." Ming Zhaoyi hooked her lips and chuckled, with a shallow smile on her face, "You don't have to worry about the concubine here, it's okay." ”

"Mother concubine, rest assured, the son knows it." Ye Linchen seemed to think of something, took out a folded letterhead from between his sleeves and handed it to Ming Zhaoyi.

Ming Zhaoyi glanced at Ye Linchen in puzzlement, and opened the letterhead under Ye Linchen's gaze. The words Shangshan Ruoshui on the letterhead were introduced into his eyes, and a trace of surprise flashed in Ming Zhaoyi's eyes, and then he looked at Ye Linchen in disbelief for a while, but he didn't know what to say.

"Mother, she said you'll understand when you see this." Ye Linchen saw that Ming Zhaoyi's expression was different, and he hesitated slightly.

Ming Zhaoyi stretched out his hand and rubbed the four words of Shangshan Ruoshui, the elegant and chic font seemed to evoke a long-lost memory, and only after half a sound did he tremble: "Who wrote these four words?"

"Xie Yaoguang, I don't know if my mother has ever heard her name." Ye Linchen smiled slightly, and there was a hint of praise in his tone, "She is an extremely powerful woman." Although sometimes Erchen really doesn't like some of her methods, but Erchen can't do without her assistance. ”

Ming Zhaoyi closed her eyes and suppressed the emotions surging in her heart, and looked at Ye Linchen softly, with a solemn expression.

Ye Linchen had never seen his mother's positive appearance, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised. How could Xie Yaoguang's writing make her mother so surprised, could it be that she was the daughter of her mother's deceased? Thinking of this, Ye Linchen had some doubts in his heart.

"Linchen, I want you to promise your mother, everything must be based on this Miss Xie's words, don't go your own way." Ming Zhaoyi's voice was slightly hoarse for a long time before she said, "This Miss Xie is really assisting you, you must treat her well." ”

Ming Zhaoyi's words made Ye Linchen foggy, but in his heart, he became more and more suspicious of this Xie Yaoguang's identity, who was she, why did she make her mother so out of shape.

However, it is impossible to know from the mouth of the concubine, and it seems that it can only start from Xie Yaoguang himself.
