"His Royal Highness, it is night now." Qiuyue reminded.

"I know." Ning Wanjun kept walking.

"Evening is not a good time to meet guests."

"Because it's not a good time, he must have something important to come here at this time."

"But you are the princess of Guangping, so there is no reason to see you as soon as you say. Even if the minister and minister want to see you, they will make an appointment in advance."

"Because they won't come to me for business." Ning Wanjun squinted at the maid, "Are you questioning my judgment, or are you targeting Xia Fan?"

Qiuyue shrank her head suddenly, "The servant girl dare not."

"Then shut up."

Ning Wanjun walked downstairs quickly, passed through the long pavilions and stairs, and finally arrived at the gate of the manor.

She had told the guards before that if Xia Fan came to visit, they could just bring him in without further notice. But he didn't expect that he was not the only one visiting for the first time, and he also brought three other suspicious "weirds" with him. Even according to the rumored guard, Xia Fan himself hoped that the princess would come and see it in person.

When she saw the "weird" in the mouth of the guard, she suddenly understood why Xia Fan said that.

Because it was actually three monsters.

If you add the previous fox demon, there are four in total.

"Where did you find so many monsters?" Ning Wanjun pulled Xia Fan aside, stared and asked, "Just one, I can pretend I didn't see it, but now there are three more, You don't intend to use my mountain villa as a hiding place, do you?"

It's unbelievable to say that monsters are not only extremely rare in number, but they basically don't come near populated places. How did he attract so many monsters?

Not to mention that among the four demons, three are women.

Thinking of what Luo You'er said, the way she looked at Xia Fan changed.

"The situation is a bit complicated." Xia Fan coughed twice, and explained the ins and outs of the matter in detail, "In short, to the people of Yamaguchi, demons are not rejected because of their special appearance, but because of their special abilities. Widely regarded as the guardian of the Grand Miko."

"There is still such a custom." Ning Wanjun frowned slightly, and called the guards, "Go and call Dr. Xie, and let him see the situation of that woman."

"Yes, what about the others?"

"Let's put them all in too. Put them in the side hall and send someone to guard them. Without my order, no one can enter or leave."

"Take orders!"

After arranging for the evil horse to come, Ning Wanjun asked Xia Fan, "Do you think these people are trustworthy?"

"Further verification is needed, but judging by its performance, it is very likely. After all, it is difficult for ordinary people to think of disguising from this angle."

"That's true. If the sea route can be opened up, it will definitely be good news for Jinxia City." The princess nodded, "That's it--I will send the parchment to Gyeonggi immediately, and there are people who can understand these things." people of words."

"Gyeonggi Privy Council?"

"Well, the only ones who can study these things are Lubu alchemists."

"Then what are you going to do after confirmation? Introduce them to the imperial court's Ministry of Rites?"

"Are you kidding me?" Ning Wanjun folded his hands behind his back and looked to the north, "Aren't they going to renew the covenant? I'll give it to them."

"You?" Xia Fan couldn't help being a little funny, "You only have one city, and you haven't held it in your hands yet!"

"But isn't it only Jinxia City that can solve the problem of private salt?" Ning Wanjun turned her head and said with burning eyes, "You have done a good job, Xia Fan. I really did not misunderstand the person. If this matter If it can be controlled by us, then the handle of the Wang family will also fall into our hands—and Wang Yi’an’s attitude will affect the entire city, and even the state pastoral mansion. If I can further find out that these officials have ties to external forces, I will have a chance Unplug them one by one!"

"Wait..." Xia Fan interrupted, "You want to keep Wang Yi'an? He is one of the main causes of the evil incident."

"I know what you think," the princess said slowly, "but you can't move the Wang family."

His expression sank, "This is different from what you said before."

How dare this guy speak to His Highness like that? Qiuyue was shocked in her heart, did he know what the gift of a monarch and his ministers was?

Just when she couldn't help but want to scold, the cold eyes of the third princess suppressed her words.

"It's my problem," Ning Wanjun said frankly, "Of course it's also for your sake."

"How to say?"

"Jinxia must not live without salt for a day. Even if the sky falls, the salt must be burned. Anyone who threatens the salt production of Qiguo will have a good end, even the princess. As long as the emperor orders, I will be exiled. If you cut him down, there is no second possibility. So Wang Yian can't move."

"But the Wang family is selling salt privately and using it to collude with external forces. Will this not offend His Majesty's Ni Lin?" Xia Fan just thought it was inconceivable.

"If you put it in the past, it is indeed a big taboo. Otherwise, who do you think was in charge of the Jinxia Salt Industry before the Wang family?" Ning Wanjun sighed, "However, the recent situation is special. The friction is intensifying. I have inside information in the army that the war is likely to break out after the autumn harvest. At this time, the Holy Majesty will not consider such trivial matters. Don't forget that although the Wang family is selling private salt, the money he handed over Salt is plentiful."

She paused, "Of course, it can be tolerated now, but it doesn't mean that it will be tolerated in the future. If this matter is exposed, the Wang family will be in danger, so it is the most beneficial thing for us. As for the alien forces, it is best to kill them all." In this way, the request of the witch from the Yama country can also be satisfied."

"Without the Wang family, wouldn't this salt be produced?"

"Organization, manpower, process, experience—all of these are in Wang Yi'an's hands. If even one link is broken, it will be greatly affected, let alone uprooting it directly?" The princess shook her head, "So this matter can only be discussed in the long run."

"What if we could produce our own salt?"

Ning Wanjun was stunned, "Us?"

"Salt burning requires a lot of manpower. Not only does it depend on the weather to arrange the firing, but also some people have to cut firewood and burn charcoal. Do you think you can get it by taking out a talisman and casting a magic spell..." Qiuyue murmured softly.

She didn't know what the princess liked about the other party, she could say such outrageous things.

But Xia Fan seemed unmoved, "That's right, we. With fewer people, we can produce more salt and completely overwhelm the Wang family in terms of output and price. Will he still be able to stand like this? "

Ning Wanjun blinked, then grinned, "Of course not, as long as you can do this, you can replace him immediately!"
