The eldest princess pampered the beautiful, strong and miserable proton queen

Fan Siqing returned to the yamen overnight with the secret letter, and together with the officials of Dali Temple, searched all the files about the illegal salt case in Dali Temple, and found some clues from them, confirming the truth of the secret report.

But there was no clue as to where the secret report came from.

But she already had a guess in her mind
"It's not difficult to guess," Ji Ruxuan looked at her, their eyes collided, and an unspeakable tacit understanding flowed, "The spearhead of the private salt case was finally pointed at the clan. This secret report undoubtedly came from the clan, but who made it?" ..."

He smiled meaningfully.

It coincides with Jiang Fuguang's idea: "The old party hidden in the clan."

Ji Ruxuan nodded.

Jiang Fuguang's fluctuating mood gradually calmed down: "From this point of view, the other party's secret report on Prince Chang's birthday is for the purpose of attracting disaster, diverting the target of Dali Temple to King Chang, and taking the opportunity to muddy the waters of the clan. I'm hiding in it to fish in troubled waters."

Recalling that recently, the clan has been in a mess because of the private salt case, maybe the other party has already fished in troubled waters.

Ji Ruxuan laughed: "The more the other party moves, the closer the truth is to the salt smuggling case. At the same time, it can be concluded that the mastermind behind the salt smuggling case is the old party hidden in the clan."

Jiang Fuguang frowned, and his tone became dignified: "They circulated smuggled salt in various parts of the Southern Dynasties. Using their huge profits, they attracted a large number of officials, aristocratic families, and business gentry to join them. While growing themselves, they also took advantage of these people. So over the years, the remnants of the old faction have continued to grow, and the imperial court has not noticed it."

Smuggling is a felony, and it means deprivation or exile.

Marquis Cheng'an came into contact with private salt at first to investigate the old party's forces, but in the end he got stuck in the mud and couldn't extricate himself.

Many people either passively or actively joined the old party forces.

"What exactly do they want to do?" Jiang Fuguang clenched his fingers, "Distribute private salt and gather power to amass wealth. Is it possible that they still want to rebel?"

Since the revelation of the smuggled salt case, the amount of dirty silver, dirty things, and smuggled salt seized has reached nearly 2000 million taels.

The old party has circulated smuggled salt for many years, and the profits it has gained are huge, far beyond imagination. Where is the money used?

win people's hearts?

Forming a party for personal gain?

Or recruit soldiers and bury horses?

The smile in Ji Ruxuan's eyes was thin, and there was a gleam of playfulness on his lips.

Jiang Fuguang gasped for breath. The old party existed for the purpose of overthrowing the current court, establishing a government that they can dominate, revitalizing the family, and keeping the family prosperous forever.

She took a deep breath: "Bringing disaster to the east is not a long-term solution. As long as the private salts continue to be investigated, Dali Temple will find them sooner or later. This time, the dog jumps over the wall and drags Prince Chang into the water. In addition to fishing in troubled waters, there may be more Big conspiracy."

Ji Ruxuan lifted her thin lips lightly: "Military power."

Jiang Fuguang looked at him and said, "It should be more than that, the military power is so important, how can it be easily changed, the king of Changjun has been in charge of the army for many years and has not made any mistakes. If the king of Changjun doesn't participate much, like the Marquis of Cheng'an who fined a sum of money back then, It is not impossible to make up for the shortfall of the salt tax.”

It is not so easy for the opponent to calculate military power.

Ji Ruxuan frowned: "At present we have too little information, let's wait and see what happens."

Jiang Fuguang was also a little helpless: "The throne of Changjun is high and powerful, and he is in charge of the military power. Now the enemy is dark and we are clear, and we can only respond to changes with the same."

There was a moment of silence in the carriage.

Jiang Fuguang couldn't help looking at Ji Ruxuan.

The one sitting in front of her is the leader of the largest remnant party in the Northern Dynasty. With his own strength, he captured the old party forces and made waves in the Northern Dynasty, gradually eroding the Northern Dynasty's regime.

The battle with Marquis Cheng'an last year resulted in the defeat of the Northern Dynasty and the loss of power of the Northern Dynasty Emperor's most trusted Taiwei Liu. After secretly controlling the situation in the Northern Dynasty, he personally sent himself to the Southern Dynasty as a hostage in an attempt to disrupt the Southern Dynasty. Unify the north-south calculation layout for him in the future.

The horror of the remnants of the old school was vividly displayed in him.

Whenever he thinks that the Southern Dynasty also has a group of remnant party forces like Ji Ruxuan, who are dormant in the dark and encroaching on the Southern Dynasty's regime, Jiang Fuguang feels a chill all over his body.

Ji Ruxuan felt chills all over her body, and she felt guilty when she looked at her: "What kind of eyes do you have?"

"You have powerful eyes." Jiang Fuguang looked at him with a smile.

Ji Ruxuan didn't believe it: "Really?"

"Fake." She said deliberately.

"I don't care," Ji Ruxuan came over and put his arms around her waist, acting coquettishly and shamelessly, "Anyway, I take it seriously."

"All right, all right." Jiang Fuguang was so entangled by him.

Ji Ruxuan kept pestering her: "Do you really think I'm amazing?"

Jiang Fuguang said in a bad mood: "Well, the leader of the remnant party, smuggling and smuggling, making money and making troubles, without law enforcement, you are the most powerful."

Ji Ruxuan had a dull expression on her face, rubbed her face vigorously, and looked at her with resentful eyes, this kind of power, don't worry about it.

Jiang Fuguang laughed out loud.

……

Not long after returning to the Princess's mansion, Jiang Fuguang was invited into the palace. Presumably, what happened in the Prince's Mansion of Changjun today had already reached His Majesty's ears.

When Jiang Fuguang came to the South Study Room, Fan Siqing and King Changjun had already arrived.

The candlelight on the lamp tree was scattered and brightly illuminated. Emperor Nanxing stood in the study with a blank expression on his face, and a disturbing air flow flowed in the hall...

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Emperor Nanxing fixed his eyes on King Changjun: "Dali Temple is under the emperor's order to run errands. Under the emperor's order, all princes and ministers must cooperate. Why did you turn people away?"

The king of Changjun couldn't stand it, and defended himself: "His Majesty Wanwang knows that Dali Temple was ordered by the emperor to thoroughly investigate the illegal salt, and there is also Shangfang Zhanmajian bestowed by His Majesty. Logically speaking, the county prince's mansion should do its utmost to cooperate with Dali Temple. When doing errands, Fang Zun has the majesty of the holy order and the majesty of the emperor's order."

He first expressed that he had no disrespect to His Majesty.

"Your Majesty trusts Fan Siqing, that's why he bestowed on Shang Fang the Sword of Slaying Horses, punishing traitors according to the law, which is not only a special privilege, but also acts according to the law. After all, this minister is the king of the county granted by His Majesty, who has received the emperor's great grace. On his birthday On the same day, people from the Imperial City Division brought by Dali Temple came to the door, saying that they had received a secret report and wanted to go into the mansion to check for clues about private salt."

"But the content of the secret report is not mentioned in detail, and the details of the clues are not exhaustive. It is really unreasonable that Fan Siqing, with his red mouth and white teeth, is going to search the county prince's mansion. But Fan Siqing is relentless."

Then he talked about the inappropriate behavior of Dali Temple.

After all, it is a high-ranking county king, even if Fan Siqing carries Shangfang Zhanma sword, the gate of the county king's mansion cannot be entered casually.

Reasonable.

"All this makes me suspect that someone deliberately reported to Dali Temple that I was suspected of private salt on my birthday, and wanted to drag me into the water and completely confuse the clan. If I let Fan Siqing enter Doesn’t it make people speculate that the minister has something to do with private salt?”

Straightforwardly stated the interests and interests, the problems that King Chang can think of, His Majesty can't think of it.
