Chapter 29 Salt Road
Author: Feng Si Niang
"This, how could this happen? How could my cousin be so bold and have a relationship with Fei Lu..."
The prince couldn't sit still on the recliner and was pacing back and forth.
Zhou Xian felt increasingly headache when he saw the prince like this.
"Father, the matter has come to an end. It is meaningless to pursue the relationship between Fei Lu and my cousin now. The key is now!
If it is true that he and the Fei Lu Snake Rat Nest did such a shameful thing, the East Palace will definitely be implicated!
And what’s even worse is that in the past three years, he has never used the convenience of the salt channel to start a flower photography business like this!"
Zhou Xian said in his heart that he was not in a hurry, but that was a lie. Human trafficking has been a huge profit since ancient times.
His cousin was no longer fooled by Fei Lu into boarding the pirate ship. The emperor's grandfather deposed the prince as well!
Moreover, this time, the eighth uncle behaved openly and openly. It was obvious that he didn't know much about Fei Lu. Maybe Fei Lu was just being smart;
Moreover, the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment even took on the posture of a gecko with its tail cut off, as if he was willing to sacrifice the layout of the Ministry of Punishment in order to clear his reputation.
The third uncle was grounded from the beginning, but the imperial grandfather did him a big favor and stayed away from this muddy water.
On the other hand, at the East Palace, the theatergoers somehow got off the stage...
Zhou Xian felt as if his head was going to explode. He looked at his father who was pacing crazily and talking to himself, and suddenly remembered that he would usually discuss this kind of matter with his uncle Lin Junyun.
Zhijun doesn't want to hear it, but she always pulls her away. Although she always listens with a smile, sometimes when she hears something, she can't even hide it with her eyes...
Zhijun, I miss you very much...
"Xian'er, I'm talking to you, did you hear me?"
Zhou Xian adjusted his expression:
"Father, before my cousin went to Guizhou to take office, my son had already checked his resume. There was no record of committing any crime, and his talents were acceptable;
There are no major omissions in the transfer process from the civil service department, so you can rest assured."
The prince was speechless when he was answered. It turned out that this son had already done the finishing work three years ago.
"I personally sent people to Guizhou. I can only catch up with my eighth uncle. As for the rest, it depends on what my cousin has done in the past few years."
After that, he kowtowed to the prince.
The prince sat back in his chair silently. He really wanted to ask why he didn't send a letter to ask. Did he send his cronies to kill the person?
What if he has run away now...
The prince's mind is full of chaos now, but he is convinced of the abilities of this legitimate son, and Xian'er must have made the best arrangements.
As for him saying to leave it to fate, then he can only leave it to fate...

"The salt merchant's wife,
Lots of gold and silk,
Don't worry about farmers and silkworms.
Every year when Yan Li becomes an official,
Spend less time in officialdom and more in private life.
The official family is less profitable than the private family,
The Minister of Salt and Iron is far away from me."
"Miss, what poem are you reading?" Jingse served the tea, listened to it, and asked Du Heng curiously.
Du Heng smiled and said, "I just remembered it suddenly."
Guizhou does not produce salt. The Sichuan-Guizhou Salt Road not only transports salt, but also all kinds of wood, local products, oil, and silk are transported along that road.
The prince treated his cousin very well. Such a good job could be sold for a lot of money.
I wonder if the prince can escape unscathed this time?
Du Heng was quite surprised at the direction of development of things.
The original plan was for Zhou Pan and Zhou Si to fight to the death, but unexpectedly, Zhou Pan was banned first, and Zhou Yan stepped in and pulled the prince into the water. The commotion suddenly became ugly.
But to her, it doesn't matter if they beat you to death with the surname Zhou. She is enjoying it, and you can only fish in troubled waters, right?
Her top priority now is to immediately see the documentary evidence of her grandfather's liaison with foreign enemies.
But just like this, it was not a three-division trial at all, and the files would not be found in any yamen;
She also went through Du Shengping's study with hope, but the result was naturally unsatisfactory.
Just when things were at a deadlock, Du Heng never imagined that this person would break the deadlock.
She also accidentally heard Lin Ling mention it. That day, she, Lin Ling and Xiao Zimei were called to a gathering at the Sheng family.
Na Sheng Yu married Du Ruolan according to the scheduled time.
Although she was newly married, she still harbored an undying desire for Lin Ling and often went to Sheng's house to harass Lin Ling.
Du Heng's face darkened. She was not that worried about Sheng Yu.
Since Du Zhilan's biological mother, Mrs. Du, is willing to let Du Ruolan marry Sheng Yu as a legitimate daughter, she must have some plans. The only problem is time;
But at Sheng Ruchi's house, my aunt's mother-in-law obviously allowed Sheng Yu to do this.
The little aunt must have chosen not to tell Sheng Ruchi patiently, so that Sheng Yu, who had the habit of being a thief, was so unscrupulous.
That Madam Sheng is really a disaster that comes from time to time, and something bad might happen one day.
Just when Du Heng narrowed his eyes and thought about how to make Mrs. Sheng "honest", Lin Ling said again:
"That Sheng Yu is really hateful! Last time, he threatened me to report on my husband, saying that I saw a letter from my father in his study that showed his collaboration with the enemy!
He also said that your husband must have tampered with the evidence in the imperial case and had evil intentions!"
"Then aunt, you..."
"I'm not stupid, so I didn't believe his lies about trying to trick me.
But after all, it was related to my father. I also went to the study to look for it quietly, but couldn't find it.
Later, I asked my husband in a circumstantial manner, and he said that such a thing had never appeared in his study. He also said that the matter was over, and he asked me to let go of the Lin family matter. Trying to overturn the case would only cause trouble..."
Lin Ling's voice became smaller and smaller, and the final voice was filled with infinite annoyance and sadness.
Xiao Zimei said:
"My uncle, it's true. There is obviously a secret behind the death of my grandfather's family, but they are so secretive. Why can't my uncle be considerate of your feelings as a daughter?"
"Okay Zimei, I know that my husband is also doing it for my own good, but even if I don't have the ability to find out the truth, when this matter suddenly appears in front of me, I can't help but look for as many clues as possible.
Even though I know that all this is in vain, there is no one left in the Lin family..."
Lin Ling smiled and had to comfort Xiao Zimei.
When Xiao Zimei saw something was wrong, she quickly changed the topic.
"Stop talking about this, auntie, how did that scoundrel Sheng Yu get into my uncle's study?"
"Mrs. Sheng, be careful about your mother-in-law."
Du Heng listened to their conversation for a long time before speaking.
Xiao Zimei and Lin Ling looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
Xiao Zimei digested it for a while:
"Auntie, Miss Du is right. Although Mr. Shanda is proud of his officialdom, he has become lame recently for some unknown reason and has been raising his leg. He must not be thinking about the affairs of the back house."
Du Heng, who knew very well about Shanda's injured leg, picked up the tea cup and took a sip as if nothing had happened.
"I also heard about the incident between Mrs. Sheng's uncle and his cousin that was so publicized last time. The person involved was Shanda's niece.
Mrs. Sheng's original candidate was her niece. She has always complained about this matter, and now she is jumping up and down.
Maybe Sheng Yu is in the inner courtyard with her acquiescence, so please be very careful, auntie."
Lin Ling felt relieved and patted her hand.
"Zimei, don't worry about me, little aunt. Look at you, why are you looking so bad recently? Is it because of the incident between the Crown Prince and the Eighth Prince? Is Master Xiao on which side?..."
Xiao Zimei touched her face and smiled forcefully,
"It's nothing, little aunt. I just didn't sleep well last night. Don't worry. I'm leaving. I'll come and play with you in a few days!"
