Several people turned out of the forest, and Erya patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief. Lin Wan glanced into the forest, paused, was silent for a moment, and ordered Qiu Zi: "Go back and ask, are there any people near us?

What Zhuangzi are there?”

"You don't have to go back, ask me, ask me! Just ask me!" Erya came up to Lin Wan excitedly and smiled widely. "There are several Zhuangzi around our Zhuangzi. The closer ones, well, there are two

Family. I heard from my mother and others that one family belongs to the prince’s family in the capital! There is another family, which also belongs to a high-ranking official!”

Prince? Lin Wan raised her eyebrows in surprise. The only person in the capital who could be called a prince was the Prince of Xining.

The few people returned to Zhuangzi and packed up. Lin Wan went to Liu's place to stay for a while. When they returned to the house, Qiu Zi had already inquired about the good news and came back to report it.

"The Zhuangzi to the east belongs to the Xining Prince's Palace, and I heard that the one to the south belongs to the Gu family. There are two more Zhuangzi, a little further away, one belongs to the Chen family, and the other belongs to the Yuan family."

Lin Wan nodded. The two people he met today were either from the Xining Palace or the Gu family.

Just as she was thinking about this, Grandma Cao hurried back from the front yard. When she entered the door, she said to Lin Wan: "My wife is looking for a girl! A few women came to the door just now. It was Princess Wei of Xining Palace who sent someone to send a message. Please come."

Madam and girl, please come over and sit down when you have time! I just found out that the Zhuangzi to the east of us belongs to the Prince of Xining’s Palace!"

Lin Wan was so shocked that she forgot to drink tea for a moment. She blinked at Aunt Cao, frowned and asked with some uncertainty: "Prince Xining's Mansion? Our family has never had any contact with them!"

"That's right!" Grandma Cao sighed, with a puzzled look on her face. "My wife also said so, so I asked the girl to go over and discuss it!"

Lin Wan frowned and tapped her fingers on the table with her right hand twice. Then she jumped up from the couch, put on her shoes, turned around and told Yuzhu: "Please sort out the account books first, I'll look at them later!"

"Why did their family think of sending a post here? We have stayed in this Zhuangzi in the past years, and no one has sent a post!" Lin Wan frowned, grabbed Mrs. Liu's hand, and was lost in thought.

"I don't have a clue. I guess Princess Wei happened to be on Zhuangzi and wanted to talk to someone." Mrs. Liu stretched out her hand to stroke Lin Wan's brow and sighed softly, "Anyway, it's not a big deal, so why bother thinking about it?

Think about it! You're young, don't frown all day long."

Lin Wan relaxed her brows and smiled at Mrs. Liu. "I didn't think anything of it, but I just thought it was a bit weird. Think about it, mother, Princess Wei wanted to find someone to talk to, and many people came forward to talk to her! Thinking about it in the capital

There is a whole street lined up to get to Xining Palace! Why did you find us? Is mother planning to reply to this post?"

Ms. Liu looked at the post on the table, frowned and thought over and over again, and finally sighed: "Let's go there. After all, we bumped into each other. If we don't go, we can't do it! It would seem that we are a little too arrogant!"

Princess Wei had an arrogant impression in her heart. Mrs. Liu herself didn't think anything of it, but her late sister was still planning to get married! She couldn't leave such an impression!

Lin Wan clasped her fingers and nodded, leaning against Mr. Liu, biting her lips, her eyes wandering, lost in thought.

In the afternoon, Lin Wan was lying on the couch tossing and turning, feeling that she couldn't sleep. Finally, she simply sat up and asked the little girl to move a stool and place it under the big locust tree in the yard. She held the chess box in her arms and the chess pieces in one hand.

There are unconscious drawings on the chessboard.

The current emperor is the youngest son of the late emperor. King Xining was indispensable for his ascending to the throne. King Xining’s ability to lead troops in war is unmatched. He has made numerous military exploits in the past thirty years. The most rare thing is that after the emperor ascended the throne, he

He was able to retreat bravely and gradually faded out of the government over the years. Only the military power in the northwest was firmly in his hands. The emperor had no choice but to do so. There was Beiyan in the north. Without the king of Xining in charge, Beiyan would be even more unscrupulous.

Thinking of this, Lin Wan's eyes dimmed, she slapped the chess piece in her hand on the chessboard with a "pop" sound, and shouted into the room: "Yuzhu! Go call a boy and tell him to go to Lan Yue Tower."

Shopkeepers Hu and Min, please come over! Forget it, let Yue Liu go! Just invite Shopkeeper Hu!"

Yuzhu stared with confusion on his face and quickly responded.

As soon as it got dark, Yue Liu carried the panting Hu Wanda into the village. Lin Wan hurriedly ordered her servants to prepare tea soup. After Hu Wanda had taken a breath, she did not turn around and said directly: "You are so anxious to call Hu Wanda."

The shopkeeper is here because he has something urgent to ask. You have a sip of tea first and have a rest, and we'll talk later."

When Hu Wanda heard that something was urgent, her heart skipped a beat. She had no intention of drinking tea. She quickly threw away the tea bowl in her hand and asked Lin Wan, "What's the matter with my boss? Just ask!"

Lin Wan signaled to Yuzhu and sent a room full of girls out. He knocked on the table and paused for a moment before asking, "How many of our medicinal materials are on the way? Have they entered the customs?"

Hu Wanda was full of doubts. Looking at Lin Wan's face, her mind wandered several times. "Only 30% of it has been shipped back, and 50% is still outside the customs."

"Do many outsiders know that we are doing this business? I mean, do they know that the owner belongs to the Lin family?" Lin Wan frowned slightly, feeling irritated.

Hu Wanda was unsure, and his face became serious: "My boss has previously told me that this trade route should be hidden, so we have divided it into several routes, using different names. What the outside world can know is that

We have some relationship with the Chen family and the Liu family."

The Chen family and the Liu family! Lin Wan let out a long breath, put her hand on her forehead, and cursed herself feebly in her heart. When she first started this business, both the Liu family and the Chen family had interests. She originally wanted to

Let’s take advantage of the power of Uncle Cheng’s family and the Chen family. After all, as the business grows, someone has to support it, and everyone has their own place. But if outsiders can find out the Chen family and the Liu family, they may not be able to find out the Lin family! Although the people who came forward in the first place

It was Hu Wanda, but it was grandma, Mrs. Wang, who persuaded the Chen and Liu families! The business has grown so fast in the past two years that even grandma may not have thought of it! I only blame myself for being too confident and greedy for not stopping in time.

"Which general is guarding the gate in the north?" Lin Wan took a deep breath, looked at Hu Wanda again, and asked in a calm voice.

"It's General Meng!" Hu Wanda paused, then continued, "The deputy general is Lu Junzhao, the second son of King Xining. I heard that he was summoned back by the Holy Lord a few days ago. There are rumors that it is for marriage."

Xining Palace! Lin Wan's heart sank, and her face became a little ugly. After thinking about it, the only thing that could connect Xining Palace to them was the matter of Beiyan. The Holy One had plans to attack Beiyan, so the army would definitely go out.

You need food, grass, and medicinal materials!

She is not afraid of asking for things, she understands how to spread wealth and avoid disasters. What is scary is that the court will want more than these things! She has spread a piece in the north. If the court wants to use it, these people... She is a girl living in the inner house, this

If word of the business spreads, it will be a disaster! Military and state affairs are not something she should know about!

And those two people I met today!

I wish she had thought more!

Lin Wan closed her eyes, clenched her fists, and ordered to Hu Wanda: "I'm afraid our business is too big! Bring the things back as soon as possible, and those who can evacuate will also evacuate! Evacuate in a secret way! I always feel uneasy!"

A flash of panic flashed in Hu Wanda's eyes. He could find out a lot of news about the imperial court. The Holy Lord should have the intention of attacking Beiyan. Seeing the boss's behavior, he might really want to fight!
