In this era, wine needed to be supervised by the court, and things like salt and tea were not allowed to be sold privately. Only salt and tea certificates issued by the court could be carried out.Buying and selling illegal salt and tea, especially selling outside the customs, is a serious crime of confiscating the family and exterminating the clan.But because of the huge profits, there is no shortage of people risking their lives to smuggle, and the collusion between government and businessmen has formed a huge circle of interests.

The thing that Madam Xia handed over was not delivered directly to Yu Cheng, but it was the same as giving it to Shang Yilan.Seeing this, Yu Cheng had to admit that Madam Xia was a smart person. This evidence involved some court officials. She did not come forward rashly, but handed it over to Shang Yilan. There was a prince behind the Shang family, and they were even more harmonious. There is a friendship with the Marquis of Dingguo.

As for whether Shang Yilan should take action after getting the evidence, it was not Madam Xia's concern.

"This Xia family is just a wallflower. It has nothing to do with the people on the Fourth Prince's side. Now it's the Third Prince. Tsk! It's quite in line with the Xia family's temperament." Yu Cheng said mockingly, flicking the paper in his hand. : "There are some shady things about the Shang family here. It seems that you made a very wise choice by breaking away from that branch early."

Moreover, compared with tea and salt, the crime of privately selling ore and privately manufacturing weapons is more serious. These people are really unscrupulous. Even the prince is trying to take advantage of the court. He doesn't care that one day the sky will collapse and he will be used by foreign enemies. The things they smuggled were then used to invade the Dama Dynasty.

Shang Yilan nodded uncomfortably and said, "Mrs. Xia is also very smart. She knows that this thing is hot and difficult to handle." Even he was frightened when he saw it. At the same time, he admired Ms. Xia's ability to get under Xia Chang's eyelids. The evidence was collected below.

After Yu Cheng read it, he returned the things to him. Seeing him looking puzzled, he said, "I thought you should show these things to Yan Zhao. I have nothing to do with the court."

Yu Cheng made his attitude clear, but Shang Yilan could not help it. Before leaving, he did not forget to ask Yu Cheng to go to the tavern to cook a meal of Buddha Jumping Over the Wall when he was free. Although the cooking method was given to the cook in the tavern, the guests did not eat it after eating it. They can't even say it was as good as the first day, but they knew that the first day was done by a novice from the county, and they really couldn't afford such a "chef".

Yu Cheng said "I understand" and asked people to send Shang Yilan away.

Looking at Lu Yanzhao's face when he came back, he knew that Shang Yilan had already handed the account book into his hands.

"Sister Cheng, you don't need to interfere, leave this matter to me." Lu Yanzhao didn't say anything. He beat Shang Yilan and actually sent these things to Sister Cheng.

"Yeah!" What Yu Cheng wants is for the Xia family to be destroyed, and it doesn't matter what the process is.

"By the way, General Han has returned to Beijing."

Yu Cheng was stunned for a moment before he realized who General Han Lu Yanzhao was talking about: "He came back so soon? It seems that he really values ​​Han Haizhu's marriage."

In fact, Mrs. Han gave way to Mrs. Han in everything. Otherwise, with Mrs. Han's identity, Mrs. Han might not even be able to control her.It's just that Mrs. Han doesn't seem to cherish Mrs. Han's respect for her.

Lu Yanzhao thought for a while and said: "Although General Han is good at changing small things, he can still see clearly what is right and wrong. It's a pity that if Madam Han hadn't stopped him, General Han's son would have been sent to the border already." The son of a military general looks down on military men. In Lu Yanzhao's opinion, he deserves a beating. A few more beatings will help him avoid this problem again.

Yu Cheng didn't pay much attention to the affairs of the Han family. During this period, he went to the palace to see the queen and found that the queen's complexion had improved after insisting on taking medicine. The maids who served were also very close to Cheng and said frankly that with the county The queen used more for every meal.

News about the Xia family also continued to come from Shang Yilan. As for Madam Xia's request for reconciliation, Xia Dada and the Xia family were more in favor and less against it. Yu Cheng was surprised at first, but after thinking about it, he understood the Xia family's request. What kind of idea is this?She couldn't help but laugh at Xia Changda's whims, thinking that if she gave up her wife's position now, Aunt Jiang would return to the Xia family and continue to work for the Xia family?

It's just that the Xia family has a dispute over Xia Wei's stay. After all, he is the eldest son of the Xia family. How can he leave with his biological mother?But I don’t know what means Madam Xia used to silence Da Da and the Xia family members.

Shang Yilan told Yu Cheng that all the concubines of the Xia family were very excited. It was their turn that Xia Wei gave up his identity as the young master. Originally, they were suppressed heavily by Lady Xia.

A few days later, a batch of cut transparent colored glazes arrived from the glaze workshop. Yu Cheng did not correct their name, as it did not have to be called glass.This batch of transparent glass was all used in the tavern. Looking at the bright windows, the guests in the tavern were amazed. They did not expect that the three owners of the tavern would be so generous.

There was also the rich man who asked about the price and origin of the transparent glass. When he learned that it was produced in the county owner's private workshop, he wanted to place an order for a batch to also be used as windows. Who doesn't want to make the home brighter?

The arrival of this batch of transparent glass not only amazed the guests, but also the Sixth Prince and Shang Yilan were shocked. He was relieved after learning that it was Yu Cheng's handiwork. At the same time, he complained about why Yu Cheng didn't ventilate earlier. Big things are still hidden.

But Yu Cheng really didn't think of it. For people from the Ohama Dynasty, this thing was very rare, but for Yu Cheng, it was an ordinary item.

Regarding the customer's desire to order transparent glass, Li Dong left the matter in his hands to others and hurried to the Hou Mansion to ask Yu Cheng what he wanted. Yu Cheng was also surprised that these people could not wait to send money. give her?She has not considered selling it to outsiders at this time, because after all, the original purpose was to make drinking utensils.

However, Yu Cheng also knew that since some people started asking for orders, they couldn't stop him, but they couldn't provide such large quantities at the moment.Yu Cheng thought for a while, and after setting a relatively expensive price, Yu Cheng asked Li Dong to declare to those who wanted to order that the supply time was uncertain and that each household would order in limited quantities, so as not to offend most people. And let the second housekeeper take charge of this matter.

Although he had expected it, Yu Cheng was still surprised when he saw the order sent by the second housekeeper. The sixth prince who followed him complained: "Sister Cheng, your workshop alone can earn more money than the three of us." It's a tavern opened by two people. No, you have to cover the windows in my house. You can tell me how much money it costs, but you have to be in front of these people's orders."

Yu Cheng smiled and said: "I don't need your money. I can still afford this glass, but I have to wait a little longer. I haven't even taken care of my own place yet! Tell Shang Yilan that his share is too Will be ready."

Only then did the Sixth Prince leave with satisfaction, and he also guessed that the colored glaze probably wouldn't cost that much. Otherwise, how much money would it cost to make all the windows in a prince's mansion covered with transparent colored glaze!

But Sister Cheng is also very loyal!

The second housekeeper was also delighted!
