The little princess' mind was read, and the court and harem were eating melons

Compared to glass, salt is obviously more important to people's livelihood.

After asking Wang Xuan, Li Qingyi asked the system to quickly confirm the price of the glass formula and the salt-drying method, which were energy and 1000 energy respectively. He left Wang Xuan and ran to the East Palace to inquire about the current method of making salt.

Wang Xuan: “…”

Wait, teacher, are we still working on the glass?

Li Qingyi: First figure out whether you need to buy a salt drying machine!

Don't ask, the question is, if the salt drying method is not popularized, maybe she can use this to turn merit! Of course, this is more important!

When Li Qingyi arrived at the Eastern Palace, the Crown Prince was discussing with the people in the Zhanshi Mansion the new accounting method and Arabic numerals that had been temporarily shelved. Although Li Zhu was ultimately unable to implement these two matters before the Crown Prince left Beijing, the Emperor allowed him to sort out the accounts in his own way instead of enduring the headache of following the old rules.

This made Li Zhu feel that his work was a lot easier - although the workload was still huge.

However, because of this, Li Zhu's accounts were too clear and concise, allowing the emperor to see very intuitively in the past few months how large the accumulated amount of the so-called default gray income was.

emperor:……

Want to curse.

"This method is clear and straightforward. If it is promoted, it will definitely be able to curb some people with bad intentions, but..."

The man had only said half of his words when someone came hurriedly to report that the eleventh princess had come to the East Palace to look for the prince.

Upon hearing this, the people who were discussing the matter looked at each other.

The prince was a little surprised, but he still stood up and said, "Everyone, please sit down for a while. I will go and take a look."

Li Qingyi seldom comes to the East Palace to disturb the Crown Prince. This time he came suddenly without any prior notice or anything. It is likely that something happened.

Most of the people from the Zhanshi Mansion were here today, including the Left and Right Zhanshi, the Co-director of the Zhanshi Academy, the Deputy Zhanshi, the Zhanshi Secretary, etc. They were all serious officials, and some of the officials in the Zhanshi Mansion were actually part-timers and had their regular jobs in the court. Several of them at the table had indirectly come into contact with Li Qingyi.

Well, I haven't seen it up close, but I heard the little princess chatting with the system during court, so how can it be considered an indirect contact?

If it were someone else, when they were discussing important matters and a child suddenly appeared and interrupted them, they would definitely think that the child was ignorant.

But if it’s Li Qingyi who comes, that’s a different story.

Although the officials did not say it openly, they all conceded in their hearts that their eleventh princess... was extraordinary.

Maybe it really is a fairy descending to earth.

Why do no one think Li Qingyi is a monster?

Well... anyone who has ill intentions towards Li Qingyi, or is judged as an enemy by certain implicit rules, has now been cleared out of the court.

Qingyi Guard: Thank you for your gift, Your Highness. It saves us a lot of work!

"Since it is the young prince who has come to look for His Royal Highness, Your Highness, please go first. I cannot wait any longer."

"That's right, we can discuss it further."

"Your Highness, there is no need to be polite with me..."

The prince bowed and left in a hurry.

After the person left, Zhan Shicheng whispered, "That person came here suddenly at this time. Could it be that he knows what we are going to do and has some ideas?"

The Left Secretary glanced at him, thinking of what the Right Secretary had just said, and looked at him: "You wanted to persuade His Highness to give up?"

Right Chancellor: "No, no, how can you say I'm giving up? I just feel that the timing is not right. This matter has a ripple effect on the entire body. Now, our Daning is facing internal and external troubles..."

When Li Yu walked into the main hall, he saw a small figure sitting on a chair, with its little feet wiggling up and down, looking very smart.

He stepped forward, quickly glanced at the snacks brought by the palace servants, smiled and gently scratched Li Qingyi's nose: "Yier, why did you suddenly come to the East Palace at this time? Are you bored?"

Li Qingyi touched his nose, wrinkled it, and said directly: "Royal brother, I am here for serious business!"

Then, Li Qingyi got straight to the point and asked Crown Prince Li Yu directly if he knew how official salt was made, how it was sold, and what the price was...

Since Li Yan had long known about Li Qingyi's extraordinary qualities, although he was a little surprised why his sister suddenly paid attention to this matter, he did know something about it.

but……

Li Yu only knew the legal provisions related to salt, as well as the salt officials, salt inspectors, and other related content. As for how salt was made, how it was sold, and how much it cost...

be thrown off balance.

Li Qingyi: "...Brother, can you find someone who knows about this?"

Li Yu nodded shyly, "Of course, but why are you asking this, Yi'er?"

Li Qingyi thought about it and made up an excuse: "I dreamt last night that someone was making salt by the sea. It looked very relaxing. I wanted to know if everyone really did that."

Li Yu: “…”

At this moment, Li Yan's thoughts coincided with the queen's - Sister, you... are really not good at lying.

Forget it, Li Lu just pretended that he was blind and deaf, and didn’t see anything, so he believed it.

"If you just want to know how to make salt, it's not difficult. Is there anything else you want to know? Why not arrange it all at once?"

Li Qingyi shook his head: "No, I just want to know this."

Li Yu nodded: "Okay, I'll send someone to look for him."

"Sister, are you going to sit here and wait for a while, or?"

Li Qingyi thought for a moment and said, "I'm a little tired. Can I sleep for a while here, brother?"

Li Yu nodded without hesitation: "Of course."

After settling his sister, Crown Prince Li Yu returned to the meeting place. Before he even entered the room, he felt that the atmosphere in the room was a little off.

But his expression remained unchanged. He put on a gentle smile and pushed the door open. "Sorry to have kept you waiting for a long time. I wonder if you can discuss a set of rules?"

Before, he said that he wanted to discuss whether or not to implement the new accounting method and certain numbers, but now he directly asked if there were any rules. The prince's attitude was obvious.

Everyone looked at each other. Those who held opposing opinions felt their scalps tingling for some reason when they thought about who the prince had just gone to see. They looked at each other and then at the Right Chancellor.

Right Secretary: “…”

He sighed in his heart, but he also knew that he couldn't directly ask the Crown Prince what he had said to the Eleventh Princess at this time. After pondering for a moment, he quickly constructed a general plan in his mind and stepped forward: "Your Highness, I..."

So, the other people stopped saying anything and began to give advice to the prince, either actively or passively. Things seemed to be going quite smoothly.
