The crown prince's favorite girl, she found another good match

Chapter 76 Became a well-known outer chamber

"Change faces?"

Li Baojia almost threw away the handkerchief in his hand.

She had only seen this kind of thing in story books.

The guy laughed awkwardly: "Although it is just a rumor...but this person does have some real abilities."

Lu Yi said suspiciously: "Then there were so many people who went to see Young Master Wang, why did they only mention him?"

"Isn't everyone else here?"

The guy shook his head: "Of course not, but among the original doctors, he was the only one who was more famous. The others have left Yizhou one after another in recent years."

"He has been traveling around Yizhou, and recently returned to Pingcheng. As long as he has money, he will tell you anything."

Li Baojia and Lu Yi looked at each other, and Lu Yi said to the guy, "Thank you."

The two left the small restaurant together.

It seems that if you want to inquire about this matter, you need to go find this person.

I originally wanted to visit Wang's family, but now it seems that I'd better go and meet this person first.

She said to Luyi: "Go and find out where he is first. In the afternoon we..."

Before he finished speaking, a big hand stretched out from a carriage that had just stopped nearby, and Li Baojiati slipped aboard in the blink of an eye.

Li Baojia almost screamed.

Lu Yi tried to pull her by the side but didn't hold her back. His eyes darkened and he was about to catch up when he saw the driver on the carriage and he breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that His Highness is here.

Li Baojia took a steady look and realized it was Zhao Yi.

She asked: "Your Highness, didn't you go to that meeting?"

Only then did she realize that Zhao Yi had changed into another outfit.

The collar and cuffs of the dark red robe are embroidered with gold threads and flowing cloud patterns, and a black narrow-edged fur belt with auspicious clouds is tied around the waist.

Her black and satin-like hair was no longer tied into a silver crown and white jade hairpin as usual, but was tied into a high ponytail with a ribbon and thrown behind her. Her collar was no longer neatly buttoned, but slightly open. It doesn't look very romantic.

In addition, his lips were like red pearls, his face was like a peach color, and his eyes were full of charm, and he actually looked like a ridiculous and dissolute young man.

Li Baojia was stunned for a moment.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty, why are you dressed like this?"

It's not like his style.

He said: "Remember to call me Prince Master when you go down. You and I will go to this cocktail party."

"Ah, ah?"

Li Baojia wanted to refuse: "Why do you want me to go?"

Zhao Yi raised his eyebrows: "Now everyone in Pingcheng knows that you are the concubine of a prodigal son like me who comes here to have fun. You even bring a concubine to the reception. If I don't take you, who will I take?"

No wonder he dresses like this... Zhou Jinan's image outside is so bad?
He himself is not at all exaggerated.

His visit this time has confirmed Zhou Jinan's reputation as this ridiculous prince.

At this time, Zhou Jinan, who was far away on the road, sneezed hard, not knowing that his already precarious reputation was now in even greater disrepair.

"Then I don't want to go either." Li Baojia muttered softly.

Even if it goes to a drinking party, it still serves as his outer room.

Is she shameless?
Zhao Yi was lying lazily in the carriage, pretending to be romantic, "You don't want to find out about your second uncle?"

Li Baojia quickly sat up straight: "Is this related to my second uncle?"

"But didn't that happen in Suzhou?"

Zhao Yi said: "The case of smuggling salt in Suzhou involves not only smuggled salt, but also ores, iron and copper and other mines that have reported mine numbers in recent years."

"It's just that your second uncle is in charge of salt transportation in Suzhou, so he will be implicated."

"According to intelligence, illegal salt is mainly sold to obtain stolen money, while copper and iron are secretly transported to a certain place."

Li Baojia was surprised: "It turns out there is copper and iron... Why didn't I mention it before the announcement?"

Zhao Yi glanced at her and said, "Why do you think this nice guy wants to smuggle copper and iron?"

Li Baojia thought about it, yes.

It’s not like exchanging salt for money…

"Someone wants to rebel?" Her mouth opened wide.

Zhao Yi took a slow sip of tea and said, "They don't think they are rebelling. They think they are getting rid of national traitors."

"Is it related to the previous dynasty?"

She suddenly remembered that about two years after the smuggled salt case, there was a rebellion in the south of the Yangtze River. It was said that some prince from the previous dynasty appeared and wanted to overthrow the Dazhao and ascend the throne.

Zhao Yi personally went down to the south of the Yangtze River. Rivers of blood flowed to the south of the Yangtze River. All the cities occupied by the previous dynasty were wiped out by them, and the people were displaced.

Fortunately, the situation was not developing quickly at the time, and Zhao Yi quickly stopped this so-called restoration of the Holy Emperor when he went to Jiangnan.

So the source of this rebellion started at this time?

She said: "Well, then my second uncle was not involved in this matter..."

Zhao Yi shook his head: "He didn't. But then the drought in Jiangnan became more serious, diseases were everywhere, and refugees piled up in Huicheng, Suzhou. He ignored the dissuasion and insisted on opening the city gate."

"Most of the refugees had died on the road. As soon as he opened the door, a large number of people poured in without checking."

Li Baojia asked: "So those people are all from the previous dynasty?"

Zhao Yi nodded.

She couldn't help but frown. The second uncle let people in, but as the salt transport envoy, there was a secret salt matter under his nose...

Any matter is enough for him to drink a pot.

His release has not yet happened. Although the secret affair will be exposed soon, as long as the secret affair is discovered before then and the truth comes to light, maybe he can atone for his sins and at least avoid death.

Moreover, this matter in the previous life was all blamed on the second uncle. Someone must have falsified the account books.

She asked: "It's not easy to sell private salt in Jiangnan. Salt is plentiful here and easy to find... so they transported it north through the waterway of Yizhou?"

Zhao Yi glanced at her, it was a bit rare that she was so alert today and could make sense at a single point.

"The previous illegal salt incident was only exposed later, and the imperial court sent Dali Temple to investigate the case. The whereabouts of the ore were not found, and your second uncle's account book was full of loopholes."

"This time I only need to be here to uproot those people from the previous dynasty..."

Li Baojia asked: "You didn't come to Jiangnan in person in your previous life, why this time?"

Zhao Yi said: "I originally wanted to come, but then something else happened. Zhao Qiong, he originally no longer existed."

Li Baojia understood instantly.

Zhao Qiong was the eldest son of Prince Liang. He died here as soon as he came to the capital. How could Prince Liang just swallow his anger?
At first he was held back by this matter.

Although the rebellion in Jiangnan was just a farce later, these displaced people and those who died in the rebellion were all real people.

How many families were torn apart. Although the second uncle was not the culprit of this matter, if he hadn't let the people in, there wouldn't have been such a large group of rebels coming to Jiangnan...

But his original intention was just to shelter these refugees.

She knew that her second uncle was not someone who would do anything for money.

This time, she must clear up his grievances and return his innocence.
