In fact, His Highness the Prince sent him here this time not only to tell him about someone coming to spy on the canal, but also to find out whether the recent official salt case had anything to do with him.
Now that he has taken the initiative to speak out, it shows that he is indeed loyal to His Highness the Crown Prince.
"Ling Zhongqing, Ling Zhongqing! No wonder His Highness the Crown Prince relies on you so much! Your future is limitless!" After saying that, he asked with admiration: "Were you responsible for all these official salt incidents?"
"good."
"Where's that stuff?"
"Dry it, separate it, and have it taken to various places by trustworthy people and sold as private salt at a high price. I can't be stupid enough to store those things that have lost their heads!"
After saying that, the two looked at each other for a long time and finally laughed.
After being annoyed by Yun Yue for the past few days, Ling Zhongqing finally felt a little happy. Ling Zhongqing suddenly felt that his illness was half cured.
"So how many are there in total this time?"
Ling Zhongqing made a five with the palm of his hand, and then made a five with the back of his hand.
"Fifty million taels?" Guard Cao asked. But there was obviously some dissatisfaction in his eyes.
Ling Zhongqing knew what he was thinking when he looked at him.
"If it's only 50 million taels, do I have the nerve to say it? It's 250 million taels!"
After staring at Ling Zhongqing for a long time, Guard Cao couldn't help but shake his head.
"If you don't want to be an official, who will?" This was Cao Huwei's heartfelt praise.
"It's easy to say. I just hope that Guard Cao can put in a few nice words for me in front of His Highness the Crown Prince."
"You are so loyal to His Highness, I will definitely say more good things for you in front of His Highness when I go back."
"In that case, many thanks to Guard Cao."
"This is what it should be." Looking at Ling Zhongqing's expectant eyes, Cao Weiwei said:
"That day, His Highness the Crown Prince was still talking about Master Ling, saying how many daughters he has. Don't forget to let them go to school when school starts. He will definitely take good care of all the daughters."
When Ling Zhongqing heard this, he immediately said with a smile: "Yes, my subordinates will definitely let them go to the academy to study."
Guard Cao nodded and said: "Don't worry, if His Highness the Crown Prince inherits the country, your future will be limitless, and so will your daughter's future. What are you still afraid of, the left prime minister?"
"Yes! Yes! When the time comes, we will inevitably need some kind words from Guard Cao."
"You and I are both the Crown Prince's confidants, no matter what kind of words you say. His Highness the Crown Prince will keep your achievements in mind silently. These two bastards should stop worrying about Yan Yan and concentrate on dealing with King Xiaoyao.
Say it again."
"Yes. Just let His Highness the Crown Prince rest assured."
Thinking of King Xiaoyao, Ling Zhongqing asked again: "Xiaguan has never dealt with King Xiaoyao. I only heard that he is a laid-back prince. He usually gets both sides. He has a good relationship with the prince and other princes. I don't know what this person is actually like.
?”
"That's what it means literally. His mother-in-law is just a lowly palace maid beside the Queen. In terms of background and power, he can't compare to the Queen and Concubine Li. In terms of money, he can't compare to Concubine Ning, the daughter of the richest man in the capital.
Among the four princes, although he is the best-looking, his conditions are the worst. If he can't have both sides, he will no longer be able to stay in this palace."
Ling Zhongqing nodded and said: "In other words, although he came to investigate the case under orders this time,
