The most romantic little emperor

When Lao Wu heard about Su Yong's hidden power and wealth, his eyes lit up and he immediately came up with a plan.

This time they failed in their mission and had to flee in panic. If they returned to King Ning, they would be badly injured if not dead.

Now he finally caught a big fish. As long as he could seize Su Yong's hidden power and wealth, he might be able to redeem himself with merit.

After a moment's silence, the fifth and ninth brothers exchanged a glance and said indignantly, "Mr. Su, the dog emperor has ruined your Su family. With such a deep hatred, can you swallow this?"

Seeing that the other party had taken the bait, Su Yong gritted his teeth and said, "If I don't avenge this, I, Su Yong, will not be a human being!"

After saying these harsh words, he was like a deflated ball, dejectedly saying: "Now that my Su family is broken up and everyone is dead, it is almost impossible to seek revenge on the dog emperor."

Seeing that he was somewhat discouraged, Lao Wu took the opportunity to say, "Master Su, I have something to say, but I'm not sure if I should say it or not!"

Su Yong pointed at the humiliating words carved on his face and said dejectedly, "This was cut on my face by the dog emperor himself. Now I am a useless person. There is no place for me in this world. What else can I say?"

Lao Wu didn't see the words carved on his face clearly, but he looked a little ferocious. He said seriously: "I advise you to surrender to King Ning. King Ning is the only one in the world who can help you avenge your hatred!"

Su Yong's expression changed, and he said nervously, "Are you saying that Prince Ning will rebel in the future?"

Lao Wu's face was gloomy, and he stared at him meaningfully, saying, "I didn't say that! It's just that the power and wealth you've hidden in Hedong..."

He didn't finish his words, and Su Yong had to speak the rest himself.

Su Yong saw that this guy was also a man who would not release the eagle until he saw the rabbit, so he said frankly: "Fifth brother, if my power and wealth can catch the eye of King Ning, I swear to follow him at the cost of my life!"

"From now on, you are my good brother. I hope you can speak well of me in front of Prince Ning."

"Okay, okay!" Lao Wu patted his chest and agreed.

After saying that, the group disappeared into the night and rushed to Hedong overnight.

……

At night, Qin Hao had just fallen asleep when he was quietly awakened by Wang Yourong's personal maid Yan'er.

At this moment, Wang Yourong was lying in his arms, sleeping lazily and tiredly.

Qin Hao couldn't bear to disturb her, so he carefully pulled out her fair and tender arm and gently walked down from the bed.

Yan'er blushed when she saw Qin Hao naked, and quickly helped him change his clothes.

When I walked out of the bedroom, Old Feng had been waiting outside for a long time.

Arriving at the Imperial Study, Elder Feng respectfully reported, "Your Majesty, the Shadow Guard has reported that Su Yong has successfully joined the game and has already made contact with Prince Ning's adopted son. They are on their way to Hedong."

"In addition, the Jinyiwei received a letter via carrier pigeon, saying that Mu Wenyuan has successfully returned to Prince Jin and is now being punished by him. However, it is unknown whether this has alerted Prince Jin!"

Qin Hao nodded and warned: "Don't let Concubine De know about this first."

"Also, notify the secret agents hiding around Prince Jin. If Mu Wenyuan's life is in danger, they must risk their lives to rescue him. I would rather the mission fail than have him make any mistakes!"

"Alas! This is my fault too. I shouldn't have let him go back in the first place. It really gives me a headache."

Elder Feng nodded in agreement and continued to report, "Your Majesty, there is one more thing. Li Shishi's identity is indeed not simple."

"Tonight, she went to see a man in black. I was afraid of alerting the enemy, so I had the shadow guards keep a close eye on her and the thief."

"Master Li is hiding very well. This old servant speculates that she is most likely an undercover agent sent by Prince Ning."

Qin Hao frowned thoughtfully and said, "I didn't expect that she was actually Prince Ning's person."

"By the way, I'm afraid that Liu Xiangxiang and Qi Shanshan are not simple people. I need to tell the second and eighth brothers about this so that they don't fall into other people's traps."

Seeing Qin Hao's meticulous thinking, Feng Lao was very pleased and bowed and replied, "Your Majesty is wise. I will arrange it right away."

Qin Hao thought for a while and asked softly, "Have those wealthy families made any moves recently?"

Elder Feng frowned and said, "Your Majesty, because of the Su family's rebellion case, many children from aristocratic families were implicated. After your punishment, they have been quiet for a while."

"Recently, they seem to have become active again. They even dared to secretly communicate with the King of Jin, the King of Wu, and the King of Ning. In addition to reselling grain, they also smuggled salt, ironware, knives, etc."

"Furthermore, in the urgent report from the Northern Frontier, Grand Marshal Wang Jian mentioned that many merchants in the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun were secretly trading with the Liao people."

"In addition to trading daily necessities like tea and silk, there were also grain, illegal salt, ironware, knives, and other items. It's difficult to disassociate this matter from those aristocratic families."

Qin Hao slammed the table and angrily asked, "How dare they?"

"Selling grain is one thing, but smuggling salt, ironware, and knives is a serious crime punishable by beheading."

"It seems that I only saw the capital, and didn't see the territory of Daxia thousands of miles away."

"Master Feng, send someone to investigate this matter immediately. I want a complete report."

Feng Lao bowed and said respectfully, "Yes! I will do it right away!"

After Old Feng left, Qin Hao fell into deep thought.

The aristocratic families privately own ironware and sell illegal salt, which is a huge problem!

After a moment, Qin Hao muttered to himself, "You aristocratic families, you'd better not play with fire. Just because I don't touch you doesn't mean you can shit and piss on my head!"

"If you don't know how to restrain yourself, I will crush you sons of bitches, even if it means risking the wrath of the world!"
