But it was not Li Yishu or her people at the door, but two old men in rich clothes.
The old man stood outside the door, breathing heavily, as if he had just arrived in a hurry.
He glanced around and saw Xia Zhaoyi and Zhili in the room. The two old men came in uninvited and walked over: "Two old friends are here so early!"
Zhili and Xia Zhaoyi looked at each other, not familiar with them at all.
Zhili cleared his throat and followed his words: "Yes, you are here too..."
He looked at Shen Lie, wondering whether he should be called Mr. Shen or Mr. Zhi.
"Yes, we are also looking for Mr. Shen." An old man said first.
"Well, we just came out from Zhiye's place. I didn't expect our two old friends to come earlier."
"Two seniors, sit down," Shen Lie said, "I've been waiting for a long time."
Zhili didn't know what was happening now and looked at Xia Zhaoyi.
Xia Zhaoyi lowered his voice: "Master Zhi is going to take over all the property in Mingtai County."
"How much does that cost?" Zhili's eyes widened.
"So, let these gentlemen in the city come together."
"Will they?"
"Princess Yangping charges low and sells high, earning a huge price difference, so they might as well collect it themselves at a fair price, right?"
Zhili suddenly realized: "Yes, in this way, we can kill two birds with one stone. Those farmers will not lose money, and they will not have to waste money. But, do they have enough money?"
"Give it to the farmers first, and I'll write the IOUs."
"Then, is it easy to explain to the princess?"
"She is a bitch, no one has to answer to her," Xia Zhaoyi said, "It is difficult to offend when people are angry. If she dares to offend, others will dare to be angry."
Zhili covered his lips with his hands, widened his eyes, and exclaimed in a low voice: "Senior sister, you are talking dirty."
Xia Zhaoyi blinked: "Did I say that?"
"I told you," Zhan Ning whispered from behind, "it's all General Xia Xingming's fault. He led you astray."
Xia Zhaoyi looked solemn, sat upright, and said to Zhili: "Don't be afraid, I will change it."
Zhili bowed his head in her ear: "It's okay if you don't change it. It's nice to say bad words occasionally."
Xia Zhaoyi was amused and smiled lightly.
After everyone laughed, they looked towards Shen Lie and the two old men over there.
The three of them looked at each other eye to eye.
"Well," a wealthy businessman said, suddenly smiling, "it seems that some are chatting, and some are chatting..."
Xia Zhaoyi looked calm and raised her hand to him: "You go first."
With a smile hidden in his eyes, Shen Lie took a deep look at her dressed as an old man, then turned around and continued.
After a while, more and more people came to see Shen Lie.
Seeing that Zhi Ye's party was about to end, Xia Zhaoyi stood up, said something to Dai Yu, and left with Zhi Li.
"Senior sister, since Mr. Zhi and Brother Shen have come forward, why do we still come?"
"He's responsible for theirs and we're responsible for ours."
"Are we and Brother Shen going to be like this?"
"Zhi Ye is a faction, your brother Shen is a faction, and we are also a faction, that is, the three factions," Xia Zhaoyi patiently explained, "The court may not take it seriously if one party has people, but if there are more than three parties, in the eyes of anyone, they will be ignored. It will definitely become a trend.”
"I understand, it's the same as the saying "three people become a tiger".
Xia Zhaoyi paused for a moment: "It's okay for you to understand it this way."
"Don't blame Senior Sister for saying that we are for Ganlin. It seems that is indeed the case. We are helping them," Zhili laughed, "Let's go!"
·
After Li Yishu and Qian Ri'an rushed to Ding Mansion, they stood under the sun until the end of the day.
Princess Yangping was sitting in the room, with porcelain cups broken on the huge ink embroidered felt. In addition to the tea set, the vase was also smashed by her.
Li Hao clasped his hands behind his back and stood with serious eyes, his eyes cold and full of disgust.
Apart from the two of them, there were three maids kneeling in the room. One of them had blood on her arm, but she didn't dare to move.
A fast horse originally stopped outside the mansion. The soldier dismounted and hurried in: "Princess!"
Princess Yangping looked up and was about to get up.
Li Hao stretched out his hand to stop her.
"Step aside!"
"You're not allowed to go anywhere, except follow me back to Hejing."
"If you don't let me, then get out!" Yang Ping stretched out his hand to push him, but he couldn't push him away no matter what.
"Princess!" the soldier rushed in.
Li Yishu turned around and yelled angrily: "How unbecoming is it to yell and scream!"
"Princess," the soldier knelt down and gasped, "those honey farms and candy workshops had already agreed, but now they all regretted it. During the dispute, the owner of an apiary suddenly drew his sword and committed suicide.
I want to die in my own honey farm, instead of being snatched away by the princess in the future..."
"Shut up!" Princess Yangping shouted loudly in the room, "I have never taken advantage of you. Don't insult me with these derogatory words!"
The soldier lowered his head and stopped talking.
"Continue." Li Yishu said.
"When he died, everyone became angry. Now...it's hard to end it."
"This is unreasonable. It seems that I have to take action personally." Yang Ping walked out, but was stopped by Li Hao again.
"Brother Three Emperors, you must go against me!"
"Follow me back to Hejing." Li Hao said in a deep voice.
"My father is angry with me because of the search for the mountain. Didn't I just tell Bi Xiao in front of you that if you can't find it at the same time, you will pay for the troops and withdraw. But for me to collect the property and then sell it to another person, father
The emperor will not be dissatisfied at all."
"Don't tell me anything else," Li Hao looked at her, "You just need to follow me back to Hejing."
Yang Ping thought for a while and his voice became calmer: "Okay, Brother Sanhuang, if you insist that I go back to Hejing with you, I agree, but I have a condition."
Li Hao raised his eyebrows, waiting for her to continue.
"I can ignore the others, but I will eat the mulberry farmers in Liujia Village, the honey farm and glutinous rice workshop in Mingnan District, and the rice merchant Mao Dafei in the city. If I don't eat them, you can tie me back to Hejing.
, I will try my best to escape."
"Why do you want to eat them?"
"I can't get over it." Princess Yangping's eyes were fierce. "Sang Nong and the people in the honey farm went back on their word and teased me. Mao Dafei's son insisted on looking good with me without giving any honor to the royal family! I didn't want them to die. I have done my best to be benevolent and righteous.
"
Li Hao pondered for a while and looked at Li Yishu outside the room.
Li Yishu nodded lightly.
"Okay," Li Hao said, "I promise you these three things, and you will come back to Hejing with me immediately."
"I'm going to Mingnan District now," Yang Ping said coldly, "Brother Three Emperors has been traveling all night, so it's better to rest."
After saying that, he raised his feet and walked outside, finally bypassing this barrier.
Li Hao thought for a moment, then turned around and followed.
Several carriages set off and headed straight out of the city. Everyone they met on the road gave way.
Yang Fugui and Li Man, who were standing near the county captain and were watching, saw this and Li Man immediately turned around and headed towards Fengyang Tower.
Two-quarters of an hour later, Chen Dingshan and Xia Songyue, who were watching outside the city gate, also saw them. Chen Dingshan put on a bamboo hat and drove the bullock cart to follow, leaving marks along the way.
Xia Songyue continued to sit in the teahouse and was responsible for communication.
