Chapter 12 Military Expenses
"Yes." Liu Jin nodded, and said again: "By the way, the eyeliner who was staring at the eunuchs has sent a message back, and the new location of the group of women has been revealed. It is in Changle Square, next to Lingchan Temple."

"I remember that there are high-ranking officials and aristocrats around that place, and Kangchengfang can't be compared with it." Li Shengxi raised his eyelashes slightly as he scraped the froth from his teacup.

"Yes, I wanted to come to Chen Run to change this place, but I felt that if the Jinwu Guard had any doubts, they would not dare to search easily." Although he knew that he was very powerful, but Chen Run was different, so he naturally had to find someone to rely on to deter him.

"There are many dignitaries there, and there are more eyes and ears of others. He hides the woman there. If he accidentally sees the light, he can't hide it." Li Sheng raised his eyebrows and looked at Liu Jin. .

"The Commander thinks..." Liu Jin frowned slightly.

"We're keeping secrets, others may not be able to invite you into the urn." Li Shengxi slowly put down the teacup in his hand, "Let's wait for Zhao Yu to pass the news back. After all, she is in the enemy's camp, so she knows where the enemy's camp is, doesn't she?" ?”

"However, if they take the initiative to pass the news to Mrs. Zhou to lure Mrs. Zhou into the game, Mrs. Zhou will fail the inspection this time, and it will be difficult for Mrs. Zhou to act next time." Liu Jin couldn't help but worry.

Li Sheng shook his head, "This matter has now come to the Zhou family's direct branch, so every move of the Zhou family must be discussed and measured, and will not be so easy and reckless. Before we don't know the truth, let's hold on. The Zhou family won't make it easy."

"Yes." Hearing the words, Liu Jin felt a little more at ease, and said again: "These subordinates have asked people to keep an eye on the traces of those people who went to Xiangyunfang to seek pleasure all night these few days. The whereabouts of the Xirong people have already come to fruition, and they live in a house in Pingkangfang."

"Live in Pingkangfang? No wonder you couldn't find any traces in the West Market in the past. There are many brothels in Pingkangfang, mixed with fish and dragons, but it is indeed a good place to hide." Li Sheng raised his eyebrows, but she was very happy. Soon he realized something, looked at Rujin seriously, "Is it a house instead of an inn?"

"Correct."

"You bought it after you came to Wangjing?"

Liu Jin shook his head, "The commander may know that this courtyard is where Feng comes to live."

Li Shengxi heard the sound familiar, and it took a while before he said: "Isn't that... isn't that... Zhao Changtong's former house?"

Zhao Changtong's current wife was born in Fengyue, and when she raised a concubine, she simply raised her in Pingkangfang.After all, the merchants in Wangjing mostly come and go in Pingkangfang in addition to the east and west cities.

Liang Yin would not be surprised that Zhao Changtong went to Pingkangfang in the name of entertainment.

"This house was owned by Zhao Changtong before, is it still under Zhao Changtong's name now?"

Guessing Li Shengxi's question, Liu Jin nodded, "It's still under the name of Zhao Changtong. The subordinates ordered someone to check again. Zhao Changtong has earned a lot of money over the years, I'm afraid he has a lot of money." It's not easy to see. Moreover, Zhao Changtong is strongly recommended by the internal guard, and he is afraid that he has also caught the line of Guan Zhi."

"My Dynasty cut off trade with Xirong because of the war with Xirong, but the Northern Dynasty still does business, and they can do business in an open and honest manner. But if they still have shady silver income, it means that the goods they exchanged are shady. The Xirong people colluded with the servants of the Honglu Temple, and there must be someone to bridge the gap, and this person is Zhao Changtong?"

"The commander expected well." Liujin nodded.

"So that's how it is." Li Shengxi murmured, his expression adding a bit of seriousness, "In other words, Yuhua Pill is definitely not the only thing that is not seen in the Northern Qi Dynasty and Xirong's exchanges. I know that this is to lure wolves into the house... Seriously. Some of them can also be regarded as collaborating with the enemy and treason."

Liu Jin looked at Li Shengxi, "What do you want us to do?"

Although this is a hidden danger of Northern Qi, Liu Jin has always known Li Shengxi's deep hatred for Yuhua Pill, and she has always understood that even if Yuhua Pill is allowed to flow into Northern Qi, it will be enough to bring down Northern Qi in a few years, but Li Shengxi is still the same. Will not let this matter go.

"We don't need to do anything. Let it go out."

"Give it to Mrs. Zhou?"

"The Zhou family only has a short-term advantage. As long as they can kill the eunuchs, they will be happy with anything. The matter of the Yuhua Pill is not a small matter, and it cannot be resolved by the Zhou family." Li Sheng said seriously.

If the Zhou family is to deal with it, the first goal of the Zhou family is to kill the eunuch, and they will put profit and loss first in every move. After that, they may not take over the business themselves.

This is the most frightening thing. The eunuchs' foundation is not deep, but the Zhou family's foundation is huge. If they are allowed to take over this business, the disadvantages will only become more serious.

If the Northern Qi was allowed to be poisoned by the Yuhua Pill, even if the North and the South were reunited in the future, this disease would not be eradicated, and it would even drag down the entire dynasty, allowing the Xirong people to reap the benefits for no reason.

Perhaps this is the real purpose of the Xirong people to smuggle Yuhua Dan.

Eunuchs who can sit in Guan Zhi's position are not fools, but Guan Zhi still does this business with them, which shows that in his eyes, under the interests of others, he can ignore the overall situation.

"In a country, there are politicians who fight for power and profit, and there will naturally be honest and upright ministers who look up to the mountains. Let them do it, and they will be more measured."

"Then shall we do nothing?" Relying on others has never been Li Shengxi's style. Even this time, Li Shengxi used the Zhou family and the eunuch dog to bite the dog, and she would still control the overall situation. Make some adjustments.

Li Sheng shook his head, and his lips curled into a beautiful arc, "Of course not. Didn't you just say that Zhao Changtong has earned a lot of shameful money over the years?"

Liu Jin nodded, "The people under his command roughly estimated that if Zhao Changtong really smuggled, the money he earned these years would be no less than 500 million."

Li Sheng's smile deepened, with a sly look on his face, "When I was in war, my military expenditure was only 500 million guan a year, but now the world is peaceful, and the military expenditure is only 200 million guan. The money he has earned all these years, as soon as he earns it, I have earned it. Military expenses for two or three years."

"The Commander wants to..." Liu Jin's eyes lit up.

"Who doesn't love money! There is no such thing as a free business in the world. I have devoted myself to clearing up the troubles of the Yuhua Pill for the Northern Dynasty. Isn't it reasonable for him to subsidize my military expenses for two or three years?" Li Sheng tilted his head. , very bright, she put down the teacup, and leaned on the beauty's couch, looking extremely lazy, but her tone was unremarkable, "Plan well, I want Zhao Changtong's money."
