To support exiled officials, start by worshipping the God of Wealth

Xu Qihuai's tone was full of praise: "To say that she is beautiful is a bit vulgar. It is better to say that she is kind and gentle, and as tough as bamboo and cypress. She is a rare and extraordinary woman."

Qiu Ying chuckled.

Li Qingcheng asked sourly: "Your Highness, is she married?"

"No." Xu Qihuai was silent for a while. Does it count if you've been married?

The guard pushed the door open and brought Jiusu and Jiang Jing. He bowed slightly to the prince and went back. Jiang Jing bowed and said, "I greet His Royal Highness the Prince."

Jiusu followed behind him and bowed slowly.

Xu Qihuai raised his hand, "This is not Shengjing, no need to be polite, sit down."

The spicy taste of the hotpot made it impossible for the prince to talk about business. After he had eaten and drunk his fill, the spicy taste in his mouth dissipated. He turned off the fire, watched the boiling hot pot gradually subside, and then he looked at Jiang Jing.

He said, "I came here for three things. I was ordered by the Emperor to shut down the place where soldiers were secretly training in Wutie County and to recall Lord Yang to supervise the production of fine salt."

Jiu Su: "..."

Telling them such a secret is probably to get their assistance. It's like if you eat the court's food, you have to work for the court.

The mission to infiltrate Wutie County was assigned to Jiang's father.

It is not difficult to call back Lord Yang.

Xu Qihuai was more concerned about the production of fine salt. He asked, "Master Jiu, please make fine salt quickly. If you can't make it in one day, I may not be able to go back to Shengjing in one day."

In front of the emperor, I acted as Jiusu's guarantor.

After a moment, Jiusu asked, "May I ask Your Highness, there is a cost for making fine salt? Uh, didn't the court allocate funds for me?"

"Five thousand taels were transferred, didn't you receive it?" Xu Qihuai asked puzzledly.

Jiusu shook his head.

This is strange. Yang Xu is upright and honest. He would not be greedy for even a copper coin, let alone five thousand taels. Xu Qihuai's face darkened and he said, "I will investigate this matter myself."

Anyone who dares to delay the country's livelihood is simply courting death!

Jiang Jing's eyes darkened slightly, and he said, "To embezzle this money is like putting your head under the guillotine."

Xu Qihuai looked at his wrist, which still had a scar on it.

"You don't look like you have a broken tendon, do you?"

"It's healed." Jiang Jing pressed down his sleeves. He didn't explain much, so the prince didn't ask any more questions. He just said, "Do you need revenge?" He shook his head, "Chen Zhao's right hand cut the tendons and veins."

Xu Qihuai's gaze moved between the two of them with a burning look in his eyes. He was really lucky to have two such talented people.

Li Qingcheng straightened up and asked in a bad tone.

"Miss Jiu, huh? You are so talented, why don't you marry into the Crown Prince's mansion and become a concubine? Maybe you can even become an imperial concubine in the future."

She played with her nails, her eyes full of sarcasm.

The temperature in the box dropped by almost three degrees. Perhaps it was because autumn was in full swing and the leaves in the courtyard were rustling. No one made a sound, but everyone shivered when the draft blew through the hallway.

You looked at me, I looked at you, and neither of us said anything.

Jiusu held the man's hand that could not hold back. There were some things that men said that were too straightforward and too serious, which could easily offend the prince, but it was okay for her to say it.

Because she was really angry.

She asked back, "Oh? Then may I ask, Concubine, when will the Crown Prince ascend the throne?"

Li Qingcheng frowned instantly. Only then did she realize what she had said. She gritted her teeth and said, "I don't know, but the prince will ascend the throne one day."

Jiusu chuckled.

"Fortunately, there are no outsiders here."

If anyone outside spreads this news, he will surely be killed.

Xu Qihuai's eyes were grim. He raised his hand and slapped her in the face.

"If you keep talking nonsense, I'll sell you out!"

"Your Highness, I was careless and said the wrong thing." Li Qingcheng knelt on the ground, hugged the prince's legs, and tried to atone for her sins, saying, "It is an honor for this girl to be able to enter the mansion."

Jiang Jing rarely gets angry in front of the prince, but at this moment, his face was tense and his eyes were cold.

Xu Qihuai thought, this is bad, this woman has offended two people at once. He glared at Li Qingcheng angrily and kicked her away: "Come here, send her back to Shengjing. She is not allowed to leave the house without my order!"

The woman was dragged away by the guards, still begging for mercy.

He rubbed his brows and said, "Don't mind me, she has always been brainless."

Qiu Ying stood up and said gently, "Concubine Li has always been jealous. Maybe she heard the prince's praise of Miss Jiu, and saw that Miss Jiu was so beautiful, so she said jealous nonsense. Miss Jiu, don't be angry."

"For the Crown Princess's sake, I'm not angry." Jiusu smiled and gave the Crown Princess some face.

At this moment, she had already formed a grudge with the concubine.

According to Li Qingcheng's personality, she would definitely be incompatible with the Crown Princess. How could the enemy of my enemy not be considered a friend? Moreover, they had a close relationship with the Crown Prince, so how could it be considered a 'close relationship'?

Qiu Ying sat down. She didn't expect that the concubine would be defeated this time.

In the past, the prince would indulge Li Qingcheng in all her little things, just because Li Qingcheng was the daughter of General Jinan and the prince needed Jinan's support. At the same time, a layer of cold sweat covered her forehead.

Fortunately, she didn't mention it.

It was Li Qingcheng who first brought up this matter, and she also saw the consequences.

"Father, thank you for dissuading me in time."

Qiu Shishu nodded secretly, indicating that there were many people here and they should talk in private.

At night, all the pedestrians went home.

The prince brought his father-in-law to Jiu Mansion to announce the imperial edict. The matter of investigating Wutie County fell on Jiang Jinyou. This was his first job after regaining his identity.

Very big and heavy.

Jiang Jinyou knelt on the ground and raised his hands: "I accept your order."

Xu Qihuai instructed: "Wutie County is a tough nut to crack. If you are not careful, you will lose your life. Lord Jiang, you must plan carefully and take it down in one fell swoop!"

Jiang Jinyou was already thinking of a countermeasure in his mind.

"Yes, I will definitely live up to the expectations of the Emperor and the Crown Prince."

[Congratulations to the host for passing 'Worship the God of Wealth' and obtaining 5 copper leaves]

The next day, Jiang Jinyou was going to Wutie County. Due to the high risk of danger, Jiang's mother could not go with him. Her eyes were red and her worried expression was mixed with happiness.

"Be careful, I'll wait for you to come back."

"Thank you for your hard work at home." Jiang Jinyou smiled comfortingly, and held her in his arms for a rare moment. He patted his wife's back and said reluctantly.

Jiang's mother hurriedly pushed him away, but the reluctance in her eyes became more intense. Tears fell and were quickly wiped away.

"In front of so many children." She clenched her fingers tightly and stood with her daughter.

Jiang Jinyou patted his son's shoulder and said, "Be extra careful about the fine salt. I'm afraid that the news of the fine salt's release has spread in recent days, and someone will definitely make trouble."

"Yeah." Jiang Jing responded.

Last night, he had a long talk with his father and told him the situation in Wutie County in detail. Hearing is believing, and he only hoped that his experience of going to Wutie County could be of some help.

Jiang Jinyou said again: "Then Su'er, uncle will leave first."

Jiusu took out a large bag and introduced it, “Uncle, this trip is dangerous and I don’t have any trusted people with me, so I hope these can come in handy.

The crossbow can automatically lock onto the enemy when in danger, and can also find the target. No matter how powerful the martial arts master is, he cannot escape. The recorder can record important words. It is very simple, and the instruction manual is inside. The telescope can be used for climbing high and looking far. The parachute can be worn on the body and can float down when falling from a height. There are also instructions.

Wutie County has a unique topography, and all these can come in handy.”
