Heavenly Dao Formula

Chapter 79 The Only Reliance

Outside the reception hall, Wang Yi'an finally got permission to meet with him.

He followed the guards into the hall, and then bowed down in front of the young woman on the main seat.

"Grassman Wang Yi'an, pay homage to Her Royal Highness Princess Guangping!"

"Get up."

"Thank you Your Highness!"

Wang Yi'an stood up slowly, and only then did he have a chance to look at the princess' true face.

And the other party was indeed just a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl as I had inquired about. Although she pretended to be majestic and behaved well, she still couldn't make up for the lack of age.

However, he will not underestimate the other party because of this. His eldest son, Wang Qingzhi, also made his mark at this age.

"I heard that His Highness was in danger in Gaoshan County, and I was really worried. Now that you are safe and sound, I am really relieved." Wang Yi'an said in the most candid tone, "Please forgive my presumptuousness, and wait for the official document Come and see me before you arrive."

"It's okay, didn't I also arrive at Jinxia City before the document? I even experienced the life of an alchemist for a few days." The other party replied with a smile.

As soon as this was mentioned, Wang Yi'an became very angry-it can be said that when he received the letter from Huzhi County, his only thought was to break Wang Renzhi's legs. What a bad thing to do, but to investigate the source of the evil in Gaoshan County, and even want to stab it to the State Shepherd's Mansion, it is simply absurd!

Could that be something he could touch!

After receiving the news that the princess appeared in Gaoshan County pretending to be an alchemist, Wang Yi'an knew that his second son's "delusion" had been shattered. After following the princess for more than ten days, he didn't realize the identity of the other party at all. In addition to the girl from the Luo family who was mentioned from time to time, Wang Renzhi's debauchery might be seen by the princess. Why did the other party hide their identity? It was not because they wanted to play a secret observation game. The most important thing in this small game was the first impression, and the second son's performance can be imagined.

It's not that I haven't given him a chance, but he will only disappoint me!

Wang Yi'an even had some doubts, whether it was a mistake to let him be his way since he was a child, never let him touch family affairs, and want to keep him away from the open and secret struggles under the salt industry.

Despite the many thoughts in his heart, Wang Yi'an's face was still full of sincerity, "The experience is the experience, and please take your own safety as the most important thing, Your Highness! Your presence is the blessing of all people in Jinxia City, and everyone is looking forward to the early arrival of this day." , there can be no mistakes!"

"Well, I see."

"Your Highness has come from afar. It would be impolite for me not to go out of the city to welcome you. Therefore, before the meeting, the Wang family specially prepared a small gift to apologize to His Highness. I hope His Highness will not blame you."

Wang Yi'an clapped his hands, and a servant bent over and walked into the hall with small steps, and placed the three rolls of red paper in his arms under the main seat one by one.

He unfolded the scroll with his own hands.

The first volume contains the names of people on the entire page.

The second volume contains silk and satin of various colors.

The third volume is about gold, silver and jewelry.

Whatever life the princess led in the palace was a thing of the past.

A girl who was born in an emperor's family suddenly bid farewell to the comfortable and comfortable palace walls and came to this strange city. What is the most missing thing?

Nothing more than people, things and wealth.

And these royal families can make up for it.

In Jinxia City, the Wang family is the biggest backer the princess can find.

"I hope you will like this small gift." Wang Yi'an bowed and saluted, "When the canonization official document is officially delivered, the Wang family will send you another big gift."

"You have a heart."

This answer was a bit too casual, which made Wang Yi'an stunned.

He raised his head and found that there was not much joy in the other party's eyes.

What's happening here?

Didn't she realize that this was the Wang family showing their favor to her?

But even so, the door-to-door meeting gift is something that can really alleviate the princess's current situation - from the information obtained from Gyeonggi, the princess's travel and personnel are extremely limited, and she should not reflect so little in the face of this gift.

"In addition, if His Highness has any other needs, you can also tell them here. As long as the Wang family has the ability to do it, we will do our best to meet it."

"Oh?" Finally, the princess's eyes became brighter, "If I want a salt field, will you give it to me too?"

Wang Yi'an didn't react for a while, "Your Highness?"

"The salt in Yancheng is managed by the Wang family, right? So, dedicating the salt field to me is something within your power?"

"This...you're joking," he said with an embarrassed smile, "The Wang family has been in charge of Jinxia City's salt industry for decades, so a sudden replacement may make it difficult to operate. The loss of the Wang family is small, and the set output cannot be completed. If you can’t pay enough taxes, that’s a big deal! The Wang family dare not disobey the mission entrusted by the imperial court, so it’s not that they don’t want to do this, but they can’t.”

"Indeed, I'm just joking, you don't have to pay attention." The princess waved her hand, "Even if you offer it to me, I don't have so many people to cook the salt."

"Your Highness is right."

"By the way, I remember that there is an alchemist in your family named Wang Renzhi. I don't know what is going on with him now?"

Wang Yian cheered up, "The dog was accidentally injured because he was running around late at night, and is currently recuperating at home."

"Did you fall..." The princess was silent for a moment, "I hope he can recover soon and return to the Privy Council."

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your concern!"

"After all, I have been a colleague for several days." She yawned, "I'm a little tired, if there is nothing else, let's stop here today."

Wang Yi'an couldn't help being stunned, is this over?

However, he found that he really had nothing else to say after giving the gift, so he could only bow and salute, "Then the grassroots will leave."

...

After confirming that the person left, Ning Wanjun stretched her hands.

"I really still have a lot of shortcomings."

"Your Highness, why did you say that?" Qiuyue immediately came up to her and squeezed her shoulders, "The maid felt that you were very imposing just now, and completely suppressed the other party."

"But the niceties got me so upset that I made childish remarks."

"You mean... the saltworks?"

"That's right, since you didn't intend to borrow the power of the Wang family from the very beginning, why do you need to make such a meaningless temptation?" Ning Wanjun shook her head and put this paragraph of distracting thoughts behind her. Compared with dealing with these people, chatting with Xia Fan is much easier, "I'm going to the bedroom again."

"Yes, which bedroom? The servant girl will immediately arrange for someone to take care of it."

"The previous room."

"I understand——ah, Your Highness, are you going to find that alchemist again?"

"Since the first goal has been achieved, it is natural to discuss more plans for the future." Ning Wanjun pointed to the maid and said, "And this time you don't have to follow in, just stay at the door."

"Your Highness—don't!"

...

Back on the carriage, Wang Yi'an faintly felt that something was wrong.

Generally, it is quite normal for this kind of door-to-door visit to invite the other party to have dinner in order to get acquainted with each other.

Although he doesn't have an official status, ordinary local officials can't compare with him at all. Even if the state shepherd comes, he will have an equal relationship in private.

Was the princess's reaction too flat?

But if you think about it carefully, you can't find any problems - after all, such a thing as inviting a party to a banquet depends purely on the mood of the other party. She said she was tired, and naturally she was beyond reproach.

Wang Yi'an took out a note from his pocket, which recorded the life of the third princess.

In order to get this news, he spent more than ten thousand taels of money, and it can be said that every word on it is enough for an ordinary family to live a lifetime.

The third princess, Ning Wanjun, was the only one among all the descendants of the Holy Majesty who was born to a woman from a non-family family, and her mother died early, so she was not favored in the palace. There are even clues that she is not only unfavored, but also often squeezed out by many parties. The remote Jinxia City as the fief can also prove this from the side.

If I switch places with the princess, it will undoubtedly be the best result to get the full support of the largest wealthy family in the fief.

Apart from this, what else can she get, or what else does she want?

Wang Yian couldn't think of an answer.

Even if she is a princess, it is impossible to return to the prosperous Gyeonggi.

Isn't it the only choice to live the rest of my life carefree in the fief like other princesses and princes who canonize different places?

Maybe I was worrying too much.

Wang Yian thought, after all, His Highness has just arrived.

Even if she hasn't gotten rid of the novelty now, she will understand one day in the future.

The Wang family is her reliable support.
