Chapter Eighty-Eight: Instead

"Your Royal Highness, it's night. Qiu Yue reminded.

"I know. Ning Wanjun's footsteps didn't stop.

"Evening is not a good time to meet guests. ”

"Because it is not a good time, he must have something important to do at this time. ”

"But you are the princess of Guangping, how can you say that you can see it. Even if the squire and Shangshu want to see you, they will make an appointment in advance. ”

"Because they don't come to me for business at all. Ning Wanjun squinted at the maid, "Are you questioning my judgment, or are you targeting Xia Fan?"

Qiu Yue suddenly shrank her head, "The servant doesn't dare." ”

"Then shut up for me. ”

Ning Wanjun walked downstairs quickly, passed through the long pavilion corridor and stairs, and finally arrived at the gate of the manor.

She had already told the guards before, if Xia Fan came to visit, she didn't need to give another notice, just bring him in. But unexpectedly, his first visit was not only himself, but also brought three other suspicious "weirdos". Even according to the messenger guard, Xia Fan himself hoped that the princess would come to see it in person.

When she saw the "weirdo" in the guard's mouth, she suddenly understood why Xia Fan said this.

Because it was three youkai.

If you add the previous fox demon, there are four in total.

"Where did you find so many monsters?" Ning Wanjun pulled Xia Fan aside, glared and asked, "Just one, I can pretend that I didn't see it, but now there are three more, you don't plan to use my mountain villa as a hiding place, right?"

It's also incredible, not only are the number of demons extremely rare, but they are basically not close to populated places, how did he attract so many monsters?

Not to mention that among the four demons, three are women.

Thinking of what Luo You'er had said, her eyes when she looked at Xia Fan changed.

"The situation is a bit complicated," Xia Fan coughed twice, and explained the ins and outs of the matter in detail, "In short, for the people of the Evil Horse Kingdom, the demon is not rejected because of its special appearance, but because of its special ability, it is generally regarded as the guardian of the Great Witch. ”

"There is still such a custom. Ning Wanjun frowned slightly, and called the guards, "You go and call Doctor Xie and let him see the woman's condition." ”

"Yes, what about the others?"

"Let them all in, and put them in the side hall, and put them to guard them. No one is allowed to enter or leave without my orders. ”

"Command!"

After arranging for the evil horse envoy, Ning Wanjun asked Xia Fandao, "Do you think these people are credible?"

"Further verification is needed, but judging by its performance, it is very likely. After all, it is difficult for ordinary people to think of camouflage from this angle. ”

"That's right. If the sea route can be opened, it will definitely be good news for Jinxia City. The princess nodded, "That's itβ€”I'll expedite the piece of leather paper to Gyeonggi, where there are people who can read the words." ”

"Gyeonggi Privy Council?"

"Well, the only one who can study these things is the Records Department Fangshi. ”

"What are you going to do after that's confirmed? Introduce them to the Imperial Court?"

"What are you kidding," Ning Wanjun put her hands behind her back and looked to the north, "Aren't they going to renew the covenant? ”

"You?" Xia Fan couldn't help but be a little amused, "You only have one city, and you haven't held it in your hands!"

"But isn't it true that only Jin Xiacheng can do it to solve the matter of private salt?" Ning Wanjun turned around, her eyes burning and said, "You did a good job, Xia Fan." I wasn't mistaken about anyone. If this matter can be controlled by us, then the control of the Wang family will also fall into our hands - and Wang Yi'an's attitude will affect the entire city and even the governor's mansion. If it can be further found out that these officials have an affair with external forces, I will have the opportunity to pull them out one by one!"

"Wait......" Xia Fan interrupted, "You want to keep Wang Yi'an? ”

"I know what you think," the princess said slowly, "but you can't move, Wang." ”

His expression sank, "This is not the same as what you said before. ”

How dare this guy speak to His Highness like this? Qiu Yue was shocked in his heart, did he know what the gift of the monarch was?

Just when she couldn't help but scold, a cold look from the third princess held back the words that came to her mouth.

"It's my problem," Ning Wanjun said frankly, "Of course, it's also for your sake. ”

"How?"

"Jin Xia can't go without salt for a day, even if the sky falls, the salt must be burned, and anyone who threatens the salt production of Qiguo will not end well, even the princess is no exception. As long as the Holy One wills, I will be exiled and you will be beheaded, there is no second possibility. So Wang Yi'an couldn't move. ”

"But the Wang family is selling salt privately and using it to collude with external forces, this will not offend His Majesty the Emperor?" Xia Fan only felt incredible.

"If you put it in the past, it is indeed a big taboo. Otherwise, who do you think was in charge of the Jinxia Salt Industry before the Wang family?" Ning Wanjun sighed, "However, the recent situation is special, the impact of the locust plague has intensified the friction on the border between Qiguo and Fengguo, and I have inside information in the army, and the war is likely to break out after the autumn harvest." At such times, the Holy One does not consider such trivial matters. Don't forget, although the Wang family is selling illicit salt, he has paid enough salt. ”

She paused, "Of course, if it can be tolerated now, it doesn't mean that it can be tolerated in the future, if this matter is poked out, the Wang family will definitely be in danger, so it is the most advantageous handle for us." As for the alien forces, kill them all. In this way, the witch of the Evil Horse Kingdom can also be satisfied. ”

"Without the Wang family, wouldn't this salt be produced?"

"Organization, manpower, process, experience - these are all in Wang Yi'an's hands, and the breaking of a link will greatly affect it, let alone directly uprooting it?" the princess shook her head, "so this matter can only be discussed in the long run." ”

"What if we could produce salt ourselves?"

Ning Wanjun was stunned, "We?"

"It takes a lot of people to burn salt, not only depends on the weather to arrange the burning, but also divides people to chop wood and burn charcoal, you should take out the talisman and put a spell...... Qiu Yue muttered quietly.

She didn't know what the princess had taken a fancy to the other party, and she could say such outrageous words.

But Xia Fan looked unmoved, "That's right, us." With fewer people, more salt is produced, and the Wang family is completely overpowered in terms of output and price, so can he still stand?"

Ning Wanjun blinked, then grinned, "Of course not, as long as you can do this, you can replace it immediately!"
