Chapter 25: The Wise Bustard
Lin Nuo saw a vendor selling clay toys on the side of the road, a pair of navy blue tigers, with white and yellow patterns painted on their bodies, a circle of white fluff embedded in their necks, and tiger teeth, and fierce milk - this appearance is quite similar to that of a girl.
"Boss, how do you sell this?" Lin Nuo picked up the two tigers and asked.
"A Jiuwen!"
"Okay, I want two!" Spend money on Lin Xi, and Lin Nuo never hesitated.
"Okay! I'll wrap it for you! β
"Lord Lin is so interested!" A female voice came from the tavern.
Lin Nuo looked up, by the window on the second floor, Murong Shu shook his wine glass at him, although he was a little lazy, it was difficult to stop the compelling heroic spirit between his eyebrows, but the haze under his eyes revealed that she was not a chic red makeup with fresh clothes and angry horses.
Lin Nuo's pupils shrank suddenly, and his memories were filled with the ups and downs of the turbulent past, the southern dishes dancing on the bonfire, the youth of the horses in the Xinjiang over there, the broken walls and mountains full of wolf smoke, the strange hometown of thousands of miles of red land, and the dying entrustment of crying blood and burning himself......
==========
"Bang!" The emperor slapped his palm on the golden case, and the hall was silent for a moment, and the ministers were silent.
"Lucky smuggled salt? Making moonshine? Don't you want to live? The emperor was not lightly angry, and directly swept his knife-like eyes to Chen Guogong, "I remember that Wuling is your fiefdom, Chen Guogong?" β
Chen Guogong broke out in a cold sweat on his back: "The minister is incompetent and couldn't find out early, but please let Your Majesty calm his anger, and the minister will immediately investigate this matter thoroughly!" β
The Emperor snorted coldly.
"Father's anger is at ease." The crown prince stood up, "Illicit salt and moonshine, from the production of raw materials to the transportation and sale, this is an extremely long chain of interests," Seeing that the emperor's face softened slightly, the prince continued, "We should brake quietly, investigate secretly, and then catch it all!" β
"Good!" The emperor's eyes deepened: "Then according to the prince's opinion, who should be sent to be in charge of the investigation?" β
The prince bowed his head more respectfully: "I have a perfect official system in Nanzhao, a clear division of labor, and each department is responsible for its own responsibilities." When the salt and iron division regulates and stabilizes the market; Dali Temple investigation, Wuling and the local departments of the counties cooperated with the assistance, sent additional envoys, inspected the conduct and governance ability of officials, and cut off the top interest chain; Strengthen legislation, tell the people, so that the people do not dare to sell; Holding the wood and establishing the letter, the report will be rewarded, and the cover up and participation will be severely punished. β
"Accurate!" This set of measures from the central government to the localities, from the nobles to the commoners, from the law to the feelings, made the emperor very satisfied.
"Thank you, Father!" The prince saluted back, his eyes a little proud.
Chen Guogong's face was not very good.
After retiring from the court, Chen Guogong visited the East Palace.
"Don't worry, we can't meddle in this matter, otherwise it will make people grab the handle." The prince reassured.
"How can I rest assured? Who can afford this crime? Chen Guogong was still anxious, "Besides, that old man in Dali Temple is old-fashioned and ruthless!" β
"Now let our men retreat to the rear at once, and all actions must be more careful than before!"
Chen Guogong's eyes darkened, "That minister's family ......"
"I've already acted, and the previous dethroned envoy will get into trouble, so I don't have a chance to get involved in this matter."
Chen Guogong's face was slightly better, and he said, "No matter what, I hope the prince will protect the old minister's family." β
"Father-in-law, where is this, Yu'er is my beloved wife, how can a family talk about two families?" The prince smiled.
"Don't dare, don't dare." Chen Guogong still understands the boundary between monarchs and ministers.
==========
The beauty is out of the bath, and the fragrance is charming.
The prince hugged the red candle and kissed it, "Today you have merit!" β
The red candle smiled coquettishly, and the prince's bones were about to be crispy. "The slave father is a strategist, this kind of carving insect skill, I'm afraid His Highness is tired of listening to it, right?"
"How so?" The crown prince smiled and kissed her cheek, but a suspicious look flashed in his eyes, "As long as you say it, this palace loves to hear it!" β
"Huh!" Red Candle chuckled and lit the prince's lips, "Your Highness, the slave family still has a question, you can ...... it only after you answer it"
The prince's lips pressed against her slender jade fingers, and there was a hint of gloom in his smile: "What's the problem?" β
Red Candle looked into his eyes, and her eyes were so beautiful that they seemed to have stars twinkling.
Then his lips lifted lightly and asked, "Who is Qin Shuang from the Ori Pavilion?" β
It turned out that the woman was jealous, and he thought it was......
Kissing her lips, the prince coaxed: "This palace is just socializing with the courtiers, you know, officialdom always needs connections!" β
Red Candle snorted unhappily.
The prince unbuttoned her red shirt, "How do you know?" β
"The Red Silk Pavilion and the Zhuli Pavilion have a quarrel, I went to visit the sisters in the Pavilion today, they all complained that the prince didn't help the Red Silk Pavilion, and said that you prefer Qin Shuang!" The red candle is coquettish.
The prince hugged her with pity, and coaxed: "Of course this palace likes you the most, and if this palace comes forward, it will not be good for the Red Silk Pavilion, and the enemies of this palace will find their ......"
A bunch of stupid women! How could he destroy his reputation for a small Qinglou?
It seems that he overestimated the Red Silk Pavilion.
The kiss was hot, and suddenly someone knocked on the door, and the voice was urgent: "Your Highness, Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess has a headache again, can you come and take a look?" β
was disturbed, of course the prince was not happy, "She really fell ill a few days ago, go call Lang Zhong!" β
"But ......"
"That's it! I'll go to the main palace in a while! The prince was impatient. Now that you need to appease Chen Guogong, you will tolerate Song Wanyu first.
A relaxed look flashed in the red candle's eyes, which was immediately covered by deliberate displeasure, and she hugged the prince and said, "No! You've been with her for a few days! β
"Okay, okay," the prince patted her on the back and coaxed, "After a while, this palace will definitely come to you every night to spend the night." He said a lot of sweet words before leaving.
After the prince walked for a long time, the beauty of the candle shadow was slightly bright, his wrist was lightly raised, and the tip of the pen was tossing and turning, as if he was pouring out his sorrow and longing, but:
βDea
Ye,

========
Yuesheng rolled up the secret letter and sealed it in a bamboo tube.
On the owl's leg, the real secret letter of the moon can only be understood by those who have been specially trained, and the English she has learned for so many years is not covered!
If the enemy hires an Englishman, won't it be troublesome?
Don't worry, just to be on the safe side, there's a mix of Chinese English, Martian script, and Chinese pinyin......
If Lin Xi heard this sentence "just to be on the safe side", she would definitely scold her for being hypocritical, and she didn't learn English well and found the reason so fresh!
Anyway, Yuesheng is in charge of writing and teaching ciphertext, and she can teach it however she wants.
Baa hahaha!
This owl, which takes off when night comes, is called Ash. All departments of the moon are kept with carrier pigeons, peregrine falcons, and owls at the same time. Most of the carrier pigeons are used to deliver fake secret letters to lure and manipulate enemies - anyone who can read can understand it: peregrine falcons fly extremely fast and are used to deliver long-distance or urgent letters; Most of the secret messages of the moon are delivered at night, and this is the owl's job.
She had just received the secret letter from the red candle, and she sorted it out and handed it to the master and the executors of the moon in duplicate.
Heh, it turns out that Qin Shuang is the intelligence person of the Chali Pavilion!
Oh, the master's plan to ban salt and alcohol was recognized in the imperial court!
Oh, it's time for the red candle to show a little flaw!
Oh, she wise old bustard!
=========
"I really don't know anything, don't embarrass me!" Lin Xi was really going to cry. She was strapped to a chair and couldn't move.
How can these people ask so much? I've been asking for a day, and I said I don't know if I still chatter!
"Girl, you tell us not to embarrass you, can you not embarrass us too? Say whatever you want. The big brother of the dark guard said earnestly.
"I've said everything I should have said, don't you don't believe it?!" Lin Xi really has nothing to love.
Brother Dark Guard picked up Lin Xi's confession and read the contents of the paper:
"You and Zhang Jingye are not familiar with each other."
"That book was thrown to you by Zhang Jingye - girl, do you know how valuable that book is? On the rivers and lakes, in the black market, there are more people who are reading this book, and it is worth tens of thousands of gold! You said that he threw it away and you took it casually, who do you think will believe it? β
"You say you're the attending doctor, but the people here don't know you at all."
"Tell me who usually wears a hood and knows two people in the whole house?"
One of these two people is the master, and the other is Jiang Lou: this kind of trivial matter can't alarm the master, Jiang Lou's predecessors have something to go out.
"Also, you said that Zhang Jingye refused to treat his master, and ruthlessly and cruelly threw this pot to you."
Lin Xi nodded and nodded again.
"Then he just doesn't want his master to recover soon, so why do he want to give you the medical book? This is also clearly illogical. β
Lin Xi was really loveless, she struggled, roared, and was held down by a few men with tigers' backs, and the chair almost collapsed.
At this time, the Twin Peaks Bridge came in, "Haven't asked yet?" β
"The subordinates are incompetent."
Fengqiao glanced at Lin Xi meaningfully and said, "I'll come." β
Lin Xi stared at Fengqiao so much that his eyes were about to pop out.
