Jiangnan is an important source of salt, and the salt shipped to various places is registered every year, but after checking the records, Teng Yu found that the amount of salt was much less in each place he went.

The official explanation is the loss of the road. If the salt is not sealed, it will be a great loss, and such a large amount of salt cannot be packed every time. The salt in the bag is broken, spilled, and volatilized on the road. It is possible.

There is a lot of room for fuss here. If each boat or truck of salt is reported to be [-]% more wasted, the salt accumulated in a year will be a terrible figure.

What's more, he also found that some salt ships even sank or disappeared, which usually happened in spring and summer when there was heavy wind and heavy rain.

Teng Yu kept a straight face for several days. Every time he found a clue, he was not only unhappy but became more depressed.

"Damn Tang Jian!" Teng Yu slammed an account book dug out from the Tang family on the table, and walked around the study room twice angrily.

Everyone in the Tang family has been arrested and imprisoned, and the family property has been counted and confiscated. Teng Yu really dug three feet to find this account book this time.

Probably when Tang Jian was transferred to Kyoto, he didn't expect that he would never return, so the information at home was kept quite complete.

After his crimes were announced, the officials of Yunjin City also tried to plot against the Tang family, but when Tang Jian left home, he spent a lot of money to hire many nursing homes to protect the safety of his family, so no one else succeeded.

This account book is very thick, and it was bound by human beings. Each page records the benefits Tang Jian has collected from the salt business over the years, as well as his share with others.

Among them, the Mu family shared the most spoils with Tang Jian, and the Xiao family ranked second.

Teng Yu had expected that Tang Jian's affairs would not have gone so smoothly if the magistrate of Yunjin City hadn't agreed. What's more, the note that read "Middle Section of Yunqiao Wharf" appeared in Mu Zhifu's study.

"Your Highness, the news is here." Han Qing walked in quickly, and whispered something in Teng Yu's ear.

Teng Yu threw the account book into a box, asked Han Qing to lock it, and ordered with a cold face: "This time, the surname Mu may not go out in person, you lead people to intercept those ships, and take all the people involved in this matter." Capture all that fall!"

"Yes, that Mu Zhifu..."

"This hall will naturally find a way to hold him back!"

"What if someone resists?"

"kill!"

"Yes."

In the afternoon, the sky darkened, dark clouds rolled, thunder bursts, and there was a lot of autumn rain.

Yin Xu had just finished reading the letter from Kyoto, and turned to Teng Yu and said, "My young apprentice asked when we could go back, and he completed the task I gave him."

Teng Yu was still looking at the information in Kyoto, raised his head when he heard this, and smiled, "You have taken in a good apprentice."

"Of course, my young master has a discerning eye!" Yin Xu glanced at the letter with messy handwriting, and felt that this apprentice was not only like him in understanding, but also wrote like him, which was equally ugly!

Teng Yu took a glance at it, and said with a snort, "I have to hire a teacher for him when I go back, even if I dare to write such a doggy word, it would be embarrassing! Don't say that he walked out of the Third Prince's Mansion in the future, it's embarrassing!"

Yin Xu frowned, and retorted: "There is nothing to be ashamed of. There is a specialization in calligraphy. If you have that time to practice calligraphy, it is better to spend more time learning useful ones. You just need to know how to write."

He didn't intend to let Wang Ren become an official. Who should he write such a good handwriting for?

Teng Yu couldn't resist him, so he had to go back and do Wang Ren's ideological work quietly.

"Did something important happen in Beijing?" Yin Xu remembered that there was a thick stack of letters when they arrived, and the letter Wang Ren wrote to him was only two pages long.

"Zuo Shaotang and Xiao Feng also left the day after we left Beijing. Qingsheng also wanted to follow, but without your consent, no one was released from the mansion."

Yin Xu nodded. He hadn't planned to imprison those two people. He arrested them just to go to the main altar of the Devil's Cult, first to meet the leader, and second to see if there are any treasures to pick up.

He has already met the former. It is said that the old guy retreated as soon as he returned, and he will definitely come to him after he leaves the customs.

He is not in a hurry for the latter, some of the magic medicines left by the Demon Cult may not be attractive to him, and they are not attractive enough.

"If Qingsheng wants to leave, let him go." Yin Xu said generously.

Teng Yu was stunned for a moment, and asked, "Are you willing to let him go?"

The thief Yin Xu laughed, "If you don't let him go back to feel the warmth and warmth of human feelings, how would he know that my master is good?"

At the beginning, Qingsheng worshiped him as his teacher, but he informed the martial arts. It is not necessary to know how those people in the world will look at him, and the Wanmo sect he founded has also been passed on. Qingsheng, as a member of the Wanmo sect , it is impossible to have a bright future in the orthodox martial arts.

Qing Xiaoyan is quite savvy. I heard that he accepted the closed disciples and even sent someone to send congratulatory gifts. His words contained the meaning of taking his son back. How could Yin Xu compromise so easily, and just blurted out the matter with a few words? pushed.

Teng Yu pinched his nose, laughed and cursed: "You master is really poisonous!"

Yin Xu patted his hand away and asked, "Is there anything else? Has the medicine made any progress?"

Teng Yu's face became serious, and he showed the letter directly, "There is progress, the medicine is not owned by Daliang, it should have flowed in from overseas, the symptoms will not be too obvious in the first month of taking it, after that it will gradually make the user's pain worse. Damage to the five viscera, especially the liver, leads to irritability, dreaminess, and lack of energy in the user, and slowly erodes the body and spirit of the person. They have developed an antidote and asked me if I would like to present it to the emperor."

"What do you mean?"

"It's not the time yet!" Teng Yu's eyes flashed, "The emperor has been poisoned for two or three months, don't worry, just wait for news from the palace, if that happens, the emperor himself will definitely find someone to develop a cure Medicine, just let them disclose the prescription when the time comes."

Anyway, the person who developed the antidote was originally an imperial physician from the imperial hospital, and the emperor would definitely not leave the imperial hospital to find the antidote by himself. At that time, the two imperial physicians only need to pretend to spend some time developing it and submit the results.

"Then you have to send more people to keep an eye on the King of Qin. If he gets in the way, this matter will not be so easy to solve." It's not that Yin Xu underestimated Teng Ji, but that Teng Ji is still too tender compared to King Qin's scheming fox. up.

Teng Yu directly turned to the last page and asked Yin Xu to read it for himself, "He really doesn't stop. He proposed at the court yesterday that the emperor should establish a reserve as soon as possible, lest there will be no successors in the country."

"Well, your father must be very angry." Yin Xu suppressed a smile.

"This matter has been brought up several years ago. King Qin is in charge of the clan mansion, and it is normal for him to propose a crown prince. The emperor is not too angry, but he will definitely not be happy."

As an emperor in his prime, who would like someone to think about finding someone to succeed him all day long, thinking about his glory after death.

"This time, our hall will force him to show his feet!" Teng Yu mocked: "His manpower, financial resources, and military strength are not very strong. The Xiao family and the Tongtian sect are just cooperative relationships for him, and they will not Do your best to help him, and when it comes to critical moments, these people will run the fastest."

King Qin must not stay, this is a poisonous snake hiding in the dark, it may come out to bite someone at any time, while he is still fledgling, pull out his fangs, or simply pinch his seven inches, so as to eliminate the trouble forever .

Teng Yu didn't like that a fisherman appeared in the final battle for the throne.

"You should also be careful of Lai Jiquan, this man is very skilled in martial arts, if he turns against him, the emperor will be very dangerous." Yin Xu reminded.

Teng Yu nodded. It's not that he hadn't thought about this, but unless he and Yin Xu went out personally, or sent a hundred or eighty hidden guards, it would be too difficult to get rid of Lai Jiquan.

"Let's leave this matter to fate. The emperor is very suspicious. As long as he is on guard, it will not be so easy for Lai Jiquan to succeed. Besides, this hall does not think he will take action."

At the same time, Dang Xiao also received a letter from Kyoto. He sat alone in the study and read the letter carefully twice.

After reading it, he sighed and thought for a moment.

It is undoubtedly dangerous to get on the boat of King Qin, but he wants money and people, if he doesn't fight hard, he will end up like this in his life.

Even if it's not for himself, but for the descendants of the Xiao family, he doesn't want to be able to get rid of his identity as a businessman for the rest of his life.

It's not that I haven't thought about choosing one of the three princes, but with their identities, I can't even touch the door, so even if I spend money and effort, I may not be able to please them.

But King Qin is different. I met him by chance, saw his ambition and ambition, and happened to have what he lacked, and he was willing to give what he lacked, so we hit it off and got together.

The benefits of joining the big boat of King Qin are obvious. With his protection, Tongtian Pavilion's business has improved a lot, and the Xiao family's shop in Kyoto has also made a lot of money.

Although the money ended up in King Qin's pocket, as long as it succeeds, it's all worth it!
