Chapter 23: The Salt Well in the West of the City

Xie Qinglin's men discovered the location of the salt well.

At this time, he was sitting in a chair with a rosewood inlaid stone, listening to the report with a blank face.

"Your Excellency." A young man in a strong suit knelt down on one knee and clenched his fists and said, "We have found that all the illicit salt comes from a salt well in the west of the city. ”

Xie Qinglin raised his head and glanced at him, his tone was as usual, "I have been tracking for so many days without results, why did I suddenly have a whereabouts?" ”

The young man's face froze, and he couldn't say why.

Qu Bo is an ordinary official in Dali Temple, and he was temporarily sent over to follow this master to investigate the case, he didn't know what Xie Qinglin came from, but seeing that the person serving him was actually a eunuch, he already had a guess in his heart.

He knelt on the ground, sweating from his forehead in such a cool weather.

It felt as if it had been a long, long time before I heard the man speak, "You go and make arrangements, I plan to go and see for myself." ”

He replied with a nervous "yes" and quietly withdrew.

He was an extremely calm and self-contained person, but he was so out of shape in front of this person.

He usually looks gentle and kind, but once he gets serious, his momentum is extremely terrifying.

Xie Qinglin got up from the chair, walked a few steps and moved his hands and feet, this matter suddenly had an eyebrow, at this moment, it is not necessarily a good thing, but in any case, even if it is a trap given to him by others, this opportunity must not be missed.

Lin Ying was very dissatisfied, he felt that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was too capable of messing around, and he didn't take his safety seriously at all, but because of his identity, he couldn't directly accuse him, so the expression on his face was particularly tangled.

When Xie Qinglin saw him like this, he knew that he had something to say again, so he simply opened his mouth to block his words first. "Don't worry, what else can I do?"

Lin Ying still frowned, "Master, you must be careful yourself, if something happens to you, we will ......"

Xie Qinglin tapped his forehead with a fan, "Shut up!" You just can't think of something good. "He's a personal eunuch who is good at everything, but there is a little, sometimes it's too much for his mother-in-law.

"Ouch." Lin Ying exclaimed exaggeratedly, "Master forgive your sins!" The slave knows it's wrong! While covering his head, he made a small bow.

Xie Qinglin was amused by him, and the gloom in his heart dissipated a little.

Xie Qinglin took Yun Shen with him, led the way by the taciturn Qu Bo, and got into a carriage and headed for the west of the city.

Qu Bo's heart has already turned a thousand times, and this master's style of acting is really unexpected to him.

All three of them changed their clothes and dressed up like local farmers.

After their observations, a large number of workers came and went in and out of the place every morning and evening, so they planned to mix in and touch it. At this time, the sky was not yet bright, the sun was only showing a corner from the east, and the dew in the forest had not yet dried, and it was still a little wet.

Sensing that they were almost there, they tied their horses to a tree and walked over on foot.

Along the way, he saw many people who were in the same direction as them, and they were all silent, Yun Shen wanted to chat with them for a few words, but they either ignored him, or they didn't know what to do. I had to do it.

None of them paid too much attention to the matter of disguising their identities, because they felt that in this barren mountain and wilderness, so many people would go in together, who would notice them.

However, when I arrived at the gate, I was stopped.

"Stop! What are you doing, what are you doing? "There was a yellow-faced and skinny old man squatting on the stone at the door, they didn't take him seriously, but he saw through it at a glance.

The old man leapt from the stone, his nimble form extremely incongruous with the wrinkles on his face.

I didn't expect this beggar-like person at the door to be hidden.

Yun Shen smiled and said, "A few of us are newcomers, you may not have seen ...... old people."

"Fuck it!" The old man glared at them viciously, "Lao Tzu has been squatting here for many years, and there is no one who works inside that I have not seen." ”

Only then did the three of them see that the old man's eyes were shining, and they didn't come up with anything to refute for a while.

"Who the hell are you three? What's sneaky is He Juxin! If you don't make it clear today, don't even think about going back with all your mustaches. "At some point, a circle of people gathered around.

Yun Shen habitually pressed his hand to his waist, but he didn't touch anything, and then he remembered that he didn't bring a knife out today to hide his identity.

He couldn't help but glance at the prince nervously, thinking to himself, even with his bare hands, it is not difficult for him to protect the prince from here, His Royal Highness the prince learned martial arts when he was a child, and now he also fights with them from time to time, and his skills have not fallen behind at all.

What's more, there is another person here, he glanced at the thin and cold young man's face like ice and snow from the corner of his eye, and he still looked like that, but he didn't know how to do it.

Qu Bo is also ready to do it.

Xie Qinglin's face sank, and he couldn't imagine that there were such poor people in the poor countryside.

He didn't want to hurt the innocent, in case someone knew that he was a bully, but the current situation seemed to be unbearable for him.

More and more people gathered, all of them looking at them with wary eyes.

The sun leaped out and shone brightly on the ground.

It seems that they are about to face a fierce battle.
