The prince is very cruel

Some of the disobedient troublemakers were beaten up and cried out in pain.

"Yes!"

Guan Ning came to Lou Xinyue and asked directly, "How is it?"

"Something happened." Lou Xinyue's face darkened slightly, and Guan Ning's heart sank slightly as well.

"Deng Laogui's informant found out that Roland seems to have been detained."

"Withheld it?" Guan Ning narrowed his eyes, his gaze gradually becoming unfriendly. Roland and the Phoenix Leaf Chamber of Commerce were his backers, and now they had developed into the driving force behind the entire Shu economy. The food, clothing, housing, and transportation of 30,000 dragon riders still depended on the Phoenix Leaf Chamber of Commerce, so their importance was self-evident.

"Who did it?"

"Where's Yan Qing?"

"He couldn't even protect Roland?"

Lou Xinyue shook her head: "It's still unclear what's going on in this short period of time."

"But according to intelligence, this matter is related to the Third Prince."

"The third prince? The third prince?" Guan Ning raised his eyebrows. How could he be related to the prince again?

Lou Xinyue opened her red lips and said, "He is one of the most favored princes in the world, Li Si. He was born to the old emperor and Concubine Zhen. He left the capital for his fiefdom two years ago and has since disappeared."

"But now the emperor is in poor health, the crown prince is no longer capable of being used, and the court is unstable. Li Si was suddenly recalled to the capital. This is still top secret."

"And this Li Si happened to be passing through Xingyang, and it's certain that he met with Roland."

"After that, Roland disappeared from public view. Even some of the Chamber of Commerce's affairs were communicated via letters. I don't know what happened."

"Also, this Li Si doesn't seem to be in a hurry to return to Beijing. He has been living in Xingyang the whole time."

"Bastard!" Guan Ning cursed with a bad look on his face, guessing that it was Li Si who was causing the trouble.

"Go prepare two fast horses. I want to go to Xingyang immediately!"

"Okay." Lou Xinyue understood that nothing could happen to the Huangye Chamber of Commerce. If anything happened, the supply of 30,000 dragon riders would be cut off.

Afterwards, Guan Ning quickly handed over the military affairs in his hands to Shen Lei and Li Ji to manage them. He also sent someone to inform Nie Nan that he was going to Xingyang.

Then, he set out overnight and went to Liuzhuang with Lou Xinyue, and then took the water route to Xingyang.

The two of them traveled day and night, galloping all the way, and arrived at the city of Xingyang in less than three days.

It is bustling with traffic here. The former Zheng family has collapsed, and various forces have come on the scene. The largest of these forces is the Huangye Chamber of Commerce.

With Guan Ning's secret support, the Chamber of Commerce grew step by step on the basis of Zheng's industry. There were twelve large warehouses in the city alone, and the logo of the Huangye Chamber of Commerce was hung in front of many shops. It was a prosperous time and flourished everywhere.

Guan Ning found the headquarters of the Huangye Chamber of Commerce as quickly as possible. It occupied a large area with two stone lions standing at the entrance. The vermilion gate was very grand, but it was closed and no one came in or out.

Bang bang bang!

Guan Ning knocked on the door.

After a long time, footsteps were heard from inside the door.

creak...

The door opened, revealing a middle-aged man with gray hair and an uneasy look. He forced a smile and said, "Who are you?"

"I'm looking for Roland." Guan Ning went straight to the point.

When the man heard this, his expression changed immediately and he quickly closed the door: "Sorry, the Chamber of Commerce is not accepting customers these days."

boom!

Guan Ning held the door with one hand, leaving a large gap.

He said coldly: "Why doesn't a good chamber of commerce open its doors for business?"

"This..." The middle-aged man was anxious and kept looking back, as if he was afraid of something.

Such an expression and such an abnormal situation all proved that there might really be a problem with the Phoenix Leaf Chamber of Commerce.

boom!

At this moment, the door was pushed open by a huge force, and the middle-aged man with gray hair was almost knocked over.

"What do you want from Roland?"

Four tall men came out, with swords on their waists and unfriendly eyes, staring at Guan Ning with an inherent arrogance.

"You two, let's go."

The middle-aged man cried out in sorrow, as if he didn't want to implicate Guan Ning.

At this moment, Guan Ning roughly guessed what was going on. The four people in front of him probably had some identity background, and most of them were not from the Chamber of Commerce.
