Chapter 190: Something Happened at Customs

The weather is getting warmer. Leng Yanxi's injuries are slowly healing. The most noticeable change after the injury is healed. It's Leng Yanxi who has returned to his busy life before. It's not something you can see anymore. It is even more impossible to be at home every day.

Su Yirong was not too disappointed. After all, she knew that almost all of them were stolen these days. It's normal now. Because I understand this. I don't feel sad in my heart. Then he went back to the days when he was alone and found happiness.

But this time it's different. Leng Yanxi fulfilled his promise. Some important things will be discussed with her. Except for not being able to tell her.

But as long as it is related to Su Yirong. and will not hide it from her. If time is in a hurry, discuss with her. If she is not in a hurry, someone will notify her.

Moreover, Leng Yanxi believed in Su Yirong's judgment ability and strategy. There are even some big things that will pull her to discuss together.

Su Yirong also used the insights of his previous life. Helped him a lot. Although she does not like to compete for power. Can be cold Yanxi wanted. I helped him with all my heart.

With the help of Su Yirong and the Thirteen Princes. Leng Yanxi's forces are also getting stronger and stronger. And the cold tide is powerful. But it has attracted the dissatisfaction of many people. Because his strength is affecting the interests of most people and even survival.

So in the middle of the court. A conspiracy has unfolded against him.

On this day, Su Yirong was in Su Yixuan. I'm feeling a little uneasy. But I don't know what's wrong. I didn't understand it, but I saw the thirteen princes walking in hurriedly. There is no usual joke on his face. With a serious expression on his face, he knew that something must have happened.

"What's the urgency of this?" Seeing this, Su Yirong knew that his hunch must be right. And he didn't make any jokes anymore. Stood up with a cold face.

"Sixth sister-in-law. Something happened to the customs yamen. This is no small thing. If we don't handle it well, we're all in big trouble." The Thirteen Princes came in to see no one else. and they will not hide it. He spoke out.

"Customs." Su Yirong felt a stirring in his heart. You know, that's the root of the cold tide. If something happens there, it means something happens to Leng Yanxi. I couldn't calm down in my heart.

The Thirteenth Prince nodded. Just wanted to explain something. But after thinking about it, he took her hand and walked out." Walk. Let's go to the study and say. Now one sentence or two is not clear. The sixth brother is also there. Let's get there and say."

Su Yirong forced himself to calm down. He nodded at the Thirteen Princes. Follow him out. But as soon as the two of them went out, they ran into Yue Ruru and walked over. The two couldn't help but be stunned.

"You guys..." Yue Ruru saw the appearance of the two. His face also changed.

Su Yirong reacted at this time. His own hand was still in the hands of the thirteen princes. This is not a past life. Men and women holding hands is a big taboo. What's more, it was also seen by the princess of the Thirteen Princes. Even if it was fine. But it's easy to misunderstand when seen like this.

I was shocked. Hurriedly pulled out. But this kind of performance has become a weakness in the eyes of others. Just wanted to say what caused. But he was preempted by the Thirteen Princes." How did you get here?"

"Why can't I come? I can't come to you because of you." Yue Ruru listened to his stiff tone. His face turned even worse. Even the gaze that looked at Su Yirong was no longer so friendly. There was even some hostility too.

Su Yirong felt the change in her. I'm in a hurry. Busy explained. Ru Ru. You listen to my explanation. Not what you think. We...

"What is that like?" Yue Ruru asked. But the voice was cold. It's long since I lost my usual happy appearance." You're trying to tell me it's just a misunderstanding."

"This..." Su Yirong still has something to say. was interrupted by the Thirteen Princes.

"Alright. Say no more. Don't look when." As he spoke, he looked at Yue Ruru. You go back first. We have important things to do. Don't get down to business. I'll talk about it when I get back to it."

"What do you mean I'm delaying business?" Yue Ruru listened to him not only did not explain. He still says that about himself. A moment of anger is more than that.

The Thirteen Princes didn't care to explain to her. Besides, there are some things that I can't tell her. After all, she is not as good as Su Yirong. I know most about the cold and hot tide. And Yue Ruru not only didn't know. I don't have Su Yirong's mind. I won't say anything to her.

"Sixth sister-in-law. It's important to put things first." So saying, he walked forward. Su Yirong hesitated a little behind him. Think about it. I still think that the matter of Leng Yanxi is more important. He gave her an apologetic look. He left behind the Thirteen Princes.

Seeing that the two of them left without hesitation. Yue Ruru was suddenly stupid there. The whole body is like falling into the water in the middle of winter. I won't move for a while.

Although Su Yirong also kept up quickly. But I still have some hesitation in my heart." The Thirteenth Prince. Is it okay to just throw her in there?"

"It's fine. Wait until I go back and talk to her slowly. Don't worry about it." The Thirteen Princes saw that she was worried. Then he turned his head and comforted her.

Su Yirong was still not at ease when he heard this. But I'm still thinking about Leng Yanxi in my heart. Where there is a heart to think about something else. I stopped thinking about it right away.

Come to the study. But I saw Leng Yanxi sitting there with a cold face. Su Yirong's heart tightened. What's going on. The two of you are in a hurry. There's always a solution to something."

Leng Yanxi raised his head at this time. looked at her and sighed. Thirteen still got you. But since you're here, let's take a look. It's not a matter of life and death. But it's a big problem."

See the fold he tossed. Su Yirong did not hesitate. I picked it up and looked at it. And the more you look at it, the more ugly it becomes.

It turned out to be a doorman under Leng Yanxi. is the tax supervisor in charge of customs. He has always been a person that Leng Yanxi trusts very much. I didn't expect it to be him.

You must know that the tax revenue of the customs now accounts for more than half of the national treasury. Even if it is to remove the Thirteen Princes and take it to train the navy. Or rich and rich. Even for the country, it's a lot of money.

Anyone who sees so much silver will definitely be tempted. And this official is the one who is tempted. He even guarded and stole from himself. greedy for money to be put into the treasury; And the amount is huge. It can be called huge greed.

Fortunately, the investigation was timely. Otherwise, I really don't know how much corruption will have to be carried out like this. But the bad thing is that this person was not found out by Leng Yanxi.

Su Yirong finally understood why the two were so embarrassed at this time. Because this person is Leng Yanxi's trusted doorman. Since the beginning of his career, he has been under the cold and hot tide. Now he holds such an important position in such an important department of customs.

He did so. It's his personal business. But it will definitely involve Leng Yanxi and the Thirteen Princes. After all, in the eyes of the emperor. This man is a man of cold and hot tides. That's what he did. And the whole navy is cold and hot people. Suspicious of other people. There's no guarantee that there won't be a big investigation into them.

And what's more serious is that you will suspect Leng Yanxi and the Thirteen Princes. Now he relies on Leng Yanxi a lot. That doesn't mean he won't be punished. Really send someone else to check. No matter how clean they are. If someone wants to check, they will always find something.

Thinking of this, Su Yirong raised his head. Will the emperor take this opportunity to cut the power of your navy?"

Leng Yanxi nodded. That's exactly what we're worried about. But I'm not worried about the emperor. With the trust he now has in me with Thirteen. Won't do that. After all, now the Navy is just beginning to build. He's not going to do that kind of messing around.

I'm worried about the other princes. They won't let go of this opportunity. Stick your own people into the navy. Then we are passive."

"And the emperor is too easily shaken now. If someone takes the opportunity to want to make the matter bigger. The emperor may really let them go. Sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. In the way we are so passive now. I can't fight them." The Thirteenth Prince also spoke. At this time, the navy is under his control. But after all, he didn't have the capital to confront the emperor.

Their biggest reliance now is the emperor's trust. If someone replaces their trust in the emperor's heart. No matter how strong the strength is. It's just a paper tiger.

"Who else has the ability to do that. Those princes don't seem to have such ability." Su Yirong said that although he was worried. But they were surprised why they were so worried. After all, in her opinion. It seems that there is no one in the court who has the ability to shake their strength.

"You forgot there's starlings. Though he is not an enemy of us for a while; But don't forget that they are not the same people as us." The Thirteenth Prince said affirmatively. For the Eight Princes they are. Although I let them go before. But whether it's Leng Yanxi or the Thirteen Princes, they. Never relaxed about them.

"And the Five Princes. He won't let this opportunity go. He now looks harmless. But he has been holding back." Leng Yanxi opened his mouth and added. He's been waiting for me and I'm making mistakes. He will create even if he doesn't have a chance. Now there is such an opportunity. How could he miss it."

Hearing this, Su Yirong was stunned. Got what they meant. sighed. The Fifth Prince, the Eighth Prince. Now they are the only ones who have the strength to compete with you. Especially the Eight Princes. There are too many people around him. No one knows which one is his."

The Thirteen Princes were silent. Look at Su Yirong." Sixth sister-in-law. Is there anything you can do?"

"You and I are omnipotent. How can I do such a thing?" Su Yirong said helplessly for a while.

"You didn't always have a way to do everything. I'm sure I'll be able to figure it out now, won't I?" The Thirteen Princes have expectations for her.

It's not just him. Even Leng Yanxi looked at her. Didn't say anything though. But it seemed like waiting for her to say something.

Su Yirong sighed. What are you guys going to do now. I don't believe you have any plans. Did you have an idea before I came?"

"I'm going to go through a plea first. That's my protégé after all. I have a responsibility to do such a thing. As for the next thing, I haven't thought about it yet." Leng Yanxi said. This time it was too sudden. I'm also a little messed up. I really didn't expect my protégé to do such a thing. It seems that the usual restraints on them are still too loose."
