Chapter 346: Cipher
When I returned to Lijiazhuang, it was already early in the morning of the next day.
Li Mingda rubbed his sparse sleepy eyes and followed Li Hao out of the car.
"Can't you stay in the palace for one night? I have to leave at night. By Li Hao's side, Li Mingda, a steady princess, also has a little more coquettishness as a little girl.
Li Hao laughed, but didn't say anything. Along the way, he kept thinking about what Li Shimin said to him when he was leaving.
The inner courtyard of the palace is heavily guarded, but Li Shimin said that it is safest for Li Mingda to stay by Li Hao's side now, what does this sentence mean?
Could it be that the consequences of the chain reaction caused by the change in Longxi are more serious than Li Hao knows?
"By the way, I heard that you captured a princess from the party, but is there such a thing?" As soon as the morning breeze blew, Li Mingda sobered up a lot, and hurriedly frowned and asked.
Looking at her jealous look, Li Hao was a little embarrassed and had a headache.
"Yes, I don't have much time for this expedition to the party, and many details are not in place. It's not enough to convince them. Therefore, they can only take one hostage back and make them dare not make any changes. ”
"So you're going to get a big beauty back?"
Li Mingda stared at Li Hao with a pair of eyes, in this regard, women seem to have a natural instinct and can always grasp the key points to attack.
Li Hao shrugged helplessly: "Won't you know after you see it later?" ”
Saying that, the two came to the Lijiazhuang Medical Department.
"Dang Xiang tart Yan Yan, see Her Royal Highness Princess Jinyang of the Tang Dynasty, Her Royal Highness Sheng'an!"
As soon as the two of them walked into the gate of the medical department, they saw Yan Yan wearing gorgeous clothes and a few of her accompanying maids, saluting respectfully.
The so-called reaching out and not hitting the smiling person, but Tart Yan Yan is respectful to Li Mingda, and the etiquette is very thoughtful, even if Li Mingda has a little resentment in his heart, it is not easy to attack at the moment, and hurriedly returned the salute: "Tart Princess Don't have to be polite, you and I are both princesses, how can you do the courtesy, Mingda can't stand it!" ”
Tart Yan Yan chuckled: "Princess Jinyang is serious, although I am the princess of the party, but now I am just a hostage under the king of Zhen'an, Princess Jinyang is the unmarried wife of the prince, how can I not stand Yan Yan's salute?" ”
Tart Yanyan smiled gently, but with a little delicate, quite a feeling of pity for me. Li Mingda was already kind-hearted, and when he saw her so soft-hearted, he hurriedly helped her up. The two beauties got together and naturally began to talk.
Li Hao stood aside and watched, and sighed with emotion in his heart, she really deserved to be a woman who could control the party behind the scenes, and as soon as she met at the beginning of the year, she had eased her relationship with Li Mingda.
Seeing that the two were chatting speculatively, Li Hao didn't bother, and quietly left to find Sun Simiao.
Sun Simiao was holding a brocade box containing a fire dragon beard, his hands couldn't help but tremble a little, as a healer, being able to see the legendary medicinal herbs made it difficult for him to control himself. didn't have time to care about Li Hao, so he returned to the inner hall by himself and began to dispense medicine for Yan Yan.
Li Hao smiled bitterly and didn't bother, and asked Wan'er beside him in a low voice: "Has anything strange happened in the village these days?" ”
"Strange things?" Wan'er pondered carefully for a moment: "Li Jiazhuang is doing everything step by step, and nothing strange has happened!" ”
Li Hao nodded, and didn't say anything more.
Suddenly, Wan'er seemed to remember something: "That's right! I wonder if that's weird! ”
Li Hao was startled and hurriedly looked at Wan'er: "What's the matter?" ”
Wan'er frowned and recalled carefully for a moment: "Three days ago, a fruit merchant from Hongzhou came to Lijiazhuang and said that he wanted to do business with us. Our Li Jiazhuang didn't have any plans in the fruit business, so we didn't want to receive it, but he said that he was introduced by Young Master Lu Yuchang, so I received him personally. ”
"Hongzhou, Lu Yuchang?" Li Hao muttered, "And then?" ”
"After I met him, he gave me a ledger without saying a word. It's a list of prices, but the prices of all the goods are a bit unbelievable, so the deal was not negotiated in the end. The fruit merchant did not show any regret and left immediately. ”
"Is the ledger still there? Show me! ”
Wan'er hurriedly took out the account book from her arms and handed it to Li Hao, she seemed to feel that something was weird, so she kept the account book with her, but in the past few days, Li Hao has been busy treating Yan Yan's eyes with the tart, and she didn't find a chance to show it to Li Hao.
Li Hao took the account book and looked through it carefully.
"Tangerine peel in the light rain season, six taels of silver and one penny. The plums that ripen in the summer season are ten taels of silver a catty. Layue plum, seven taels of silver a catty......"
Li Hao read a few pages in a low voice, and found that the prices of all the top grades in the account book were unbelievably expensive.
"This merchant claims to be a fruit seller, but his goods are in a mess, selling everything, up to chariots and horses, down to ordinary medicinal materials, and he can't do a good job, which shows that he has no talent for business, so I sent him away!"
If Li Hao didn't know about the Li family in Longxi, he would probably make the same judgment as Wan'er, but now, he didn't dare to underestimate this account book.
"In the light rain season, the rain is sparse and the wind is sudden, and the tangerine peel is six taels of silver and a penny, which is too expensive. Chen Shutai! ”
"In the sixth month of the Great Summer, the son of the Li family, the sixth prince Li Su!"
"The twelfth month is the twelfth, and the twelfth is the day of the week, which is the end of the year and the omen of the beginning of the year. When we first see it, the day of calamity...... Plum blossoms are proud, snow and frost, mountain flowers are splendid, and it is self-flowing! Oh no, Li Ziyin wants to sacrifice herself! ”
"Miss Li Ziyin?" Wan'er didn't know what had happened to the Li family in Longxi, and she couldn't help but be stunned when she heard this: "What happened to Miss Li?" ”
Li Hao clenched his fists and told Wan'er what happened in the palace after finishing it.
Wan'er also broke out in a cold sweat after hearing this: "In other words, this is the code of Miss Li's family?" ”
"That's right! When I went to the palace last night to look for medicine, His Majesty suddenly received a secret report that someone had secretly infiltrated the prison, and it had been revealed that our cooperation with Li Ziyin in Hongzhou had been revealed. Now Li Ziyin has lost power and is under house arrest. According to what is written in this book, the people who infiltrated the prison are really Chen Shutai and Li Su. ”
"The prison is heavily guarded, and you can't enter without a certain skill, if it's the two of them, it's reasonable!" Wan'er reasoned downward along Li Hao's train of thought and said.
Li Hao nodded and continued: "The five surnames and seven hopes are the big trouble in Lao Li's heart, so he formed an alliance with Li Ziyin many years ago. If the Li family in Longxi knew that Li Ziyin and Lao Li were conspiring, they would definitely tear their faces. Now that Datang has just survived the war, if there is internal chaos, it will definitely damage its vitality. In Hongzhou, Li Ziyin cooperated with me and did not involve Lao Li, so she wanted to sacrifice herself to protect Lao Li! ”
"Plum blossoms are proud of the snow and frost, but they don't compete with the flowers, the group is full of beauty, she retreats herself!" Wan'er finally understood the meaning of what Li Hao had just said, and couldn't help but admire Li Ziyin's heroism.
"Young Master, Miss Li is merciful and kind, and cares about the country, we must not let her sacrifice, we must find a way to save her!"
"I know!" Li Hao clenched his fists and pondered for a moment: "Wan'er, let Hei Dan personally lead someone to send the account book into the palace, Lao Li is also waiting for my news at the moment, this matter is very important, and Lao Li must communicate with him!" ”
"Yes, young master!"
