asked Chen Chong to help prepare some musical instruments, clothes, and accessories, and Lin Qingran found someone to bring them over. The others were also very excited to try it out when they saw something brought over, but only these two women stood in the corner without saying a word.

Lin Qingran took some clothes and accessories and walked over.

"Do you like these clothes?" She asked.

"It's pretty." One of the women said.

"Is it for us?" Another woman said.

"Yes! In this way, if you can tell me why you came here, I won't let you perform in front of the little marquis. Lin Qingran wanted to get closer to each other first.

"Is it really possible to perform without us?" The two asked.

"Yes, as long as you tell the truth." Lin Qingran felt that there was a play.

"I ...... He came to Yangzhou City to look for his relatives, and was later arrested by them. They asked me to serve the little marquis, and said that if I was disobedient, they would sell me to a brothel. One of the women said pitifully.

"I'm different from her, I was bought by them when I was a child, taught me to play the piano and sing. Today is the first time I have come out to serve others, and I ...... Afraid. Another woman said.

Oh. I see, it seems that the atmosphere of this Yangzhou City is really bad.

On the way back to the room, Lin Qingran lowered his head and thought about the words of the two women just now, thinking about what solution there was. I vaguely felt that there was a person in front of her, so I wanted to move left and right to get out of the way, but that person just kept stopping in front of her. She looked up and was about to say something, when she saw that it was Li Mingyuan.

"You asked Chen Chong to prepare so many musical instruments, what are you doing?" Li Mingyuan saw that she had finally found herself.

"Pretend, if you don't want to get it, then I'll do it." She said helplessly.

"You're trying to confuse the people out there?" He knew that someone was watching them outside, "still...... Want to confuse me with a beauty trick? As he said this, he drew closer and closer.

What's the situation, why is he so close to me, Lin Qingran subconsciously ran away immediately, and stammered: "When... Of course not, little... Xiao Hou Ye is so easily confused, of course, he is to confuse people outside. After saying this, Lin Qingran realized why she was so nervous.

Li Mingyuan was very interesting to see her expression, it turned out that she would also be nervous, "That's good." With that, he turned and left.

Am I being tricked by him?

After arranging the lobby of the inn, let these women play the piano, sing songs, and dance in the lobby. Although it is confusing to people outside, this scene is indeed quite provocative.

"Don't say it, it's really beautiful! Look at these women, they are worthy of Jiangnan women, they can sing and dance, this figure and this appearance are really good! Liu Wei looked at these and said happily.

"You're not afraid that Qin Yu will kill you?" Chen Chong didn't want to pay attention to him.

"Everyone has a love for beauty, don't you see that the little marquis is also here?" Liu Wei found that the little marquis also came over.

"Little Hou Ye!" Chen Chong immediately walked over.

"This Lin Qingran is quite decent." Li Mingyuan looked at it and said.

"The subordinates also think it's okay, and it should be more than enough to deal with those people outside." Chen Chong said.

"Okay, let them do it first."

"The subordinates are worried that this will not be conducive to the stability of the military." Chen Chong voiced his concerns.

"Yes...... Then arrange them in the nearest rooms around this lobby, you find someone to keep an eye on the outside, and as long as they are gone, let these people disperse. Li Mingyuan knew that his subordinates were all hot-blooded young men, and if something really happened, it wouldn't be good.

"Wang Li is also very strict in managing the affairs of the army in peacetime, so leave the rest to him." He continued.

"Yes!"

Lin Qingran looked at this scene, déjà vu, especially the piano, in order to learn the piano back then, she practiced morning and evening, and the master said that she was very talented, and a song played by Guangling was even more glamorous in the capital. But since she went to Yunzhou, she has never touched the piano again, and her perennial abacus has also made her hands calloused, "Alas......" she sighed quietly.

Of course, Li Mingyuan saw Lin Qingran's behavior.

When everyone dispersed, Lin Qingran walked to the piano and plucked the strings with his hand, but he no longer had the feeling of playing the piano in the past.

"Play it if you like." Li Mingyuan suddenly appeared behind her.

She was startled by the sudden voice, "Why are you here?" ”

"Come and see how you get it." He wanted to pretend that nothing had happened.

"What else is it to see, they're all gone."

"Do you know how to play?" He asked softly.

"I used to, but now I can only play the abacus." Lin Qingran suddenly felt that the atmosphere was a little weird, and hurriedly said loudly: "I have come up with a way!" You can smelt those salt merchants. ”

Li Mingyuan was taken aback by her words, "Okay, let Chen Chong and them all come to my room to discuss it later." "It's a little reluctant, but it's really important right now.

"Tell me, what can you do to smelt those salt merchants?" After everyone arrived, Li Mingyuan asked.

"This has to start with the women sent by the salt merchant." Lin Qingran said.

"What do you mean by that?" Li Mingyuan didn't quite understand.

"The experience of one woman among those people made me think of a solution." Lin Qingran continued.

"Oh?"

"One of them originally came to Yangzhou City to join relatives, but they arrested him, and now he has been sent over by salt merchants, which shows that these salt merchants are connected to human traffickers in Yangzhou City." She continued.

"Selling salt, selling people, it's possible." Li Mingyuan thought for a while and said.

"Selling salt is legal, but trafficking in people is a felony. If they can find evidence of human trafficking, they will naturally be sent to the court. She explained it carefully.

"But now the officials of Yangzhou City are all their people, and this is not a free gift." Chen Chong said.

"The officials of Yangzhou City can't do it, but the officials of Huizhou City can, if the prefect of Huizhou City is allowed to try this case, it will be justified. Even if the Jiangnan salt transport envoy wanted to be partial, but the evidence was conclusive, and it was the prefect of Huizhou who tried the case, then he had no choice, and he would implicate himself if he didn't do it. Lin Qingran gave them a brief analysis.

"Now among the officials in Huizhou City, there are still some old departments of the Dingwang Mansion, and they should be able to contact the Huizhou Governor's Mansion through them." Li Mingyuan thinks this method is feasible.

"Yes! The prefect of Huizhou can't control Yangzhou now, maybe there will be some festivals with this Jiangnan salt envoy, as long as we make good use of the relationship between the two of them, we may be able to suppress this Jiangnan salt envoy. Lin Qingran continued with Li Mingyuan's words.

"In this way, Chen Chong, you can find an opportunity for me to meet the prefect of Huizhou." Li Mingyuan felt that he could give it a try.

"Yes, little marquis." Chen Chong said.

"That's a good idea!" Li Mingyuan said praisefully.

"Don't think about it so well, maybe the prefect of Huizhou has a good relationship with the Jiangnan salt transporter. Even if you find evidence and the officials protect each other, you have no power to punish the crime, so in the end, it may be impossible to do it, and you will not be able to move this salt envoy. Lin Qingran voiced his concerns.

"I'm not interested in this Jiangnan Salt Transport Envoy, as long as I can restore some of the power of the Dingwang Mansion in Yangzhou City. This will help in rescuing my father in the future. Of course, Li Mingyuan knew the relationship behind this Jiangnan salt transport envoy.

"Now it's time to find these salt merchants, the evidence of human trafficking. In this way, Liu Wei, you ask the guards who originally disguised themselves to enter the city to inquire about this news. ”

"Yes, little marquis!" Liu Wei said.

"Yo, it's amazing, I've arranged for someone to come in first." Lin Qingran didn't know that he had already made arrangements.

"Of course, how can you not make some preparations for entering Yangzhou City." This is also a mistake.

"Okay, then let's do this today, you go down and prepare first."

"Yes." The crowd said.

After everyone went out, Lin Qingran didn't plan to leave, she wanted to talk to Li Mingyuan about Shangjing.

Li Mingyuan saw that she had no intention of leaving, and was very curious.

"What? You're not the fastest runner on weekdays, so why don't you want to go today? Li Mingyuan thought to himself, what is she trying to do?

"Well, can you let me meet Shang Jing?" She wondered what was going on with Business Scene.

"He's fine now, eating and drinking." It turned out that because of this, Li Mingyuan was not very happy.

"I want to say, isn't Shang Jing's mother a commercial prostitute? Maybe there will be news of this. Lin Qingran is actually not sure that they will have a relationship, but now, there is only this reason to meet with Shang Jing.

"They are in Yunzhou, and this is Jiangnan, how can it matter."

"They're in a caravan, and this caravan often travels north and south, maybe."

"That's how you want to see him?" Li Mingyuan was jealous.

"I said that I would take him to Jiangnan safely, and if you can't talk, it won't count." Lin Qingran actually didn't mean anything else.

"That's it?"

"Otherwise, you think that's the case."

"Alright then, I'll have someone bring him over in a few days." After Li Mingyuan finished speaking, he paused and said: "Actually, ......" In fact, he wanted to say that he also hoped to go to the capital safely with her.

"Actually, what?" When did this man speak so much?

"Nothing!" Forget it, let's not talk about it.

The salt merchant contacted the officials in Huizhou, and the officials there also replied.

"Little Marquis, this prefect of Huizhou, he doesn't want to come over, saying that this Yangzhou City does not belong to the management of Huizhou." Chen Chong said.

"It seems that this matter is not as simple as I thought." Li Mingyuan knew that the Huizhou prefect didn't want to get into trouble, "In this way, I will write a letter to the Huizhou prefect, and you will personally bring the letter to invite him over." ”

"Yes!" Chen Chong said.

"Be careful, stay out of sight." He told him again and again.
