It is easy to get dry firewood, but it will be charcoal after it is burned.

For Su Qingqing, it is actually the same as Wen Yi. It is a must for them to enter the palace and become their concubines through the talent show. But before that, they still need to protect their bodies and not do anything randomly!

I gave up after kissing her forehead. I held back myself, comforted her and sent someone to protect her, and arranged for her to re-enter the palace as soon as possible.

Su Qingqing nodded and obediently did as she did.

As for the godmother, when he saw His Highness the Crown Prince come out with his precious daughter, the old lady knew that his aunt was determined and could be proud in the He family. He even thought that his daughter was the queen, so he didn't say anything nonsense and followed her girl quietly. When he saw the Crown Prince, he was respectful and no longer doing anything nonsense.

When I came out of my home, my mood became even heavier.

It’s not easy to attack the Xu family.

Ordered that one would take over the city defense camp in full and a curfew would be started at night.

When it comes to real action, it often depends on hard power. The Xu family has been in the capital for more than 30 years, with strong capital and developed roots. It is not easy to solve the problem.

It shouldn't have taken action in advance, but there was something that made the prince's son feel like he was in his throat and he was very concerned.

Is the Xu family related to the thief?

If so, this is dangerous!

"Your Highness, I searched, but I didn't find it!"

"Um……"

Confused emotions filled my heart. Su Qingqing said before that Liu He left a letter to him, which was very concerned. I think Liu He was an extremely cunning person. The purpose of leaving a letter to him was very obvious, in order to leave a way out for himself.

So!

This letter must be extremely important, and he did not explicitly state where the letter was, but said that he knew where he placed it?

This made Zhao Xiaonian confused. He once thought that the letter was in Liu He's mansion, or even under his bed, but his subordinates searched through Liu He's house and found no letters. So where did Liu He put this thing?

"Continue to search, don't let go of any clues!"

"yes!"

In the next few days, the capital city seemed to calm down. Perhaps it was because of the ban or the excessive reaction of the official made the thieves sensitive, so all parties began to calm down and the activities were no longer so blatant.

Of course, in this wave, the one who suffered the biggest losses was definitely not Zhao Xiaonian, but the rebels.

In just three days of confrontation, the thief head killed one person, and the remaining thiefs were killed more than 400, and more than 300 were captured. Every day, thieves captured from all over the capital were taken to Jingzhao Prefecture.

Even the people in the capital said that in the prison of Jingzhao Prefecture, they screamed in tears every day, and I wonder how many people were imprisoned in that prison.

Every time Li Xiuyun came to the Prince's Mansion to report the interrogation results, he could see Xiao Guodong's excited and excited expression.

In the past, he always looked careless and didn't seem to be very interested in anything, but now he is overworked and is even more excited.

Zhao Xiaonian asked him in confusion: "Isn't you tired after the third update last night?"

Unexpectedly, he said excitedly: "I'm not tired, I feel very satisfied now... No, it's special..."

“Full?”

"Yes, I just like this feeling of being busy!"

"Um……"

Everyone has a passion in their body. When the passion is ignited, they become a workaholic!

Youth is so good!

Seeing that he was so motivated, His Royal Highness was also very satisfied. It was obvious that he did not say this to please him. He truly felt the joy and excitement of being in Jingzhao Mansion.

"By the way, Your Highness, tomorrow is the autumn auction. I heard that the palace is ready?"

"Um,"

Li Xiuyun's eyes flashed slightly, as if he wanted to speak but stopped.

Seeing him like this, he signaled and asked him to say.

He clasped his fists and started, "I heard that Xu Ying from the Jiafangsi will be auctioned this time?"

"Yes!" Zhao Xiaonian nodded slightly, glanced at Li Xiuyun with a light look, and said, "I'm going to buy that girl... No, you want to buy her?"

When talking about Xu Ying, I couldn't help but think of what happened the night before yesterday.

The day before yesterday, I went to the palace to do some things. By the way, I went to Jiaofangsi to have fun before going back. I was so skewed by the fact that the essential oil was really good. I saw a palace maid rushing in the palace, and finally ran to Jiaofangsi to make a big fuss in Huaguo Mountain, which moistened the women of Jiaofangsi. When I left in the morning, they lined up to serve the door, yelling at His Highness, and shouting so moisturized.

Especially Xu Ying, when she heard that someone in the Xu family had been arrested one after another recently, she felt fear that Zhao Xiaonian would cause trouble for her, so she did her best to serve her and did not dare to be negligent.

Thinking of her rich charm, it still makes people linger!

Speaking of this, Zhao Xiaonian was also very sure of her. I wonder if it was because she was serving the Queen, compared to other women, Xu Ying had a special temperament, and her characteristics were incomparable to others. Otherwise, Li Tong and Li Xiangye would not have gone to Jiaofangsi all day long, and even plotted against her to make her body fall.

As soon as I talked about her, I instinctively reacted to essential oils. Zhao Xiaonian made a mistake in his tongue and actually said what he wanted to buy her.

Li Xiuyun had no choice but to smile and hold his fists: "Your Highness the Crown Prince is wise!"

"Hey, your father wants it!"

"Well……"

Seeing his smile, I knew that I was not wrong.

This matter is reasonable, and I nodded slightly and agreed.

Then, Li Xiuyun added: "She was shameless when she entered the prime minister's mansion. He asked Li Wen to buy her and put it in the courtyard next to Si'an Hall on the West Street. If your highness misses her, then go!"

"Um."

It’s indeed the son of Master Li, and his level of doing things is beyond the reach of ordinary people. He reacts very quickly!

Everyone has their own advantages and disadvantages, so for the king, employing people should be to judge the situation, vary from person to person, and adapt to local conditions, so that the greatest power of talents can be exerted!

"Tomorrow's auction must ensure the principles of order, fairness and fairness. Don't let everyone feel that they are forced to take money. My father hates this the most!"

"Yes, Your Highness has said a long time ago, and I have told everyone this. They all know that they all have their own favorite things and have prepared the money!"

"That's good!"

This autumn auction is related to the expenses of the internal affairs of the DPRK this winter, so it is very important.

In fact, if the father had not dragged the treasury empty because of the war on both sides, he would probably not have been willing to go to the northwest to see him. It was really time to be unable to hold on. Zhao Xiaonian still knew this.

If Lu Zeyuan continues to spend like that in the northwest, this winter, the army in the northwest alone will need 6 million taels of silver. Xu Ruping in the east will need another 6 million taels, which will be 12 million taels at once. Besides, the expenses in the palace, the expenses in one winter alone will require at least 8 million taels, not to mention some other expenses, including all kinds of disaster relief preparations in winter, some activities, repairs, etc., spending them, 40 to 50 million taels a year, where does this money come from?

Relying on the tax revenue of Liangjiang alone, the input to the court was less than 10 million taels, and the silk trade at sea was about 20 million taels. With some additional inputs, it was only more than 30 million taels per year. If this spending was done, the treasury was not enough to emptiate the national treasury every year, and the east wall had to be demolished and repaired the west wall. The father had no choice but to develop the method of autumn auction, and he could only barely maintain balance.

However, the generals on both sides had a growing appetite, and the military expenditure was increasing every year, which was already at the point where they could not be compensated. Then they forced their father to go to the northwest to find his precious son who should have been the emperor and start working.

Otherwise, how could the father be reluctant to attack the Xu family until now?

While still thinking about these things, someone came outside to report: "Your Highness, Master He Ge is asking for a meeting."

With a slight frown, Zhao Xiaonian said, "Please rest in the side palace, I'll be here soon!"

"yes!"

Li Xiuyun held his fists and said withdrew.
Chapter completed!
