"What's the matter?" Princess Yangping asked, putting down the book in her hand.
As long as she has some free time, she can read. The fact that she was able to get the first prize among women fully demonstrates that her hard work and intelligence are not inferior to those of men.
Moreover, Princess Yangping also has a lot of research on the art of scholarship and governance. If Meng Xing wanted to discuss these with her, she would definitely not be as good as others.
He was just a porter, so it was okay to copy poems from his previous life and talk about some of his views. If he wanted to discuss academic matters with the princess, he would only be crushed.
The only female number one scholar in the Qin Dynasty was by no means a vain person.
"I would like to ask the princess if she knows anything about the Liu family in Qiongzhou?" Meng Xing asked.
Before going to the Liu family, he must make complete plans and learn more about the Liu family, lest he meet the Liu family ancestor and have to expose his true identity to deal with him.
And probably no one knows more about the Liu family than the imperial court.
"Qiongzhou Liu family?" Princess Yangping's delicate eyebrows moved slightly.
"right."
"Soul Angel's spies actually have a lot of detailed knowledge about Qiongzhou. As far as I know, Qiongzhou is basically controlled by the Liu family. Various businesses and the rampant bandits in Qiongzhou are all closely related to the Liu family.
"Princess Yangping, who has a cold temperament, said.
"When did the Liu family begin to rise? Why didn't the imperial court destroy the Liu family?" Meng Xing asked.
Princess Yangping said: "The Liu family began to rise eight or nine years ago. At that time, the ancestor of the Liu family broke through to the fourth-grade divine realm and began to become unscrupulous. However, my father had just ascended the throne and was busy stabilizing the government, so he had no time to care.
.The Liu family took this opportunity to take control of Qiongzhou, an area near the sea."
Eight or nine years ago? Senior Sister Liu, who was about fifteen years old at that time, had just been sent to the Zhenwu Sect. Obviously, major events also happened in the Liu family during this time.
However, it still needs to be checked whether Senior Sister Liu is from the Liu family.
Meng Xing was thinking in his mind while listening to Princess Yangping continue: "Five years ago, my father sent people to annihilate the Liu family, but there were many bandits in Qiongzhou. Those bandits were ordered by the Liu family to plunder the surrounding areas, which also caused great harm to other areas.
Big damage.”
"The army sent by my father had to exterminate these bandits, but these bandits were familiar with the area and roamed around, making it extremely difficult to exterminate. Instead, the army suffered heavy losses and was tired of coping. In the end, due to the lack of food and supplies, the extermination was extremely difficult.
The banditry has been going on for more than a year and it has to be terminated."
So that's the case, no wonder the Liu family wants to control these bandits in Governor Qiong. These bandits are equivalent to the Liu family's private army and the Liu family's money-making tools. The abacus is really loud. Anyone who wants to attack the Liu family will encounter these bandits first.
But the Liu family can arrange things calmly.
However, if there is a powerful person who directly kills the ancestor of the Liu family, the Liu family will become a piece of loose sand and there is nothing to fear.
However, people like Jueshen Sect and Dao Sect Lei Sect may not easily accomplish this for the imperial court, because the existence of the Liu family may actually be a check on the imperial court.
Moreover, every fourth-grade master is extremely precious, and the death of one will have a great impact on the sect. Third-grade masters and second-grade masters are even rarer, and they are already sect master level figures. To be
To kill a fourth-level master like the ancestor of the Liu family, one must be at least a third-level master, and one must also be prepared for possible losses. Therefore, the strong men of these top sects will not take action easily.
Meng Xing thought for a while and asked: "In addition to the Liu family of the martial arts family in Qiongzhou, is there any Liu family from a scholarly family?"
Princess Yangping shook her head: "I have never heard of the Liu family from a scholarly family."
She picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip of tea, and said, "Why are you asking about the Liu family? Why are you suddenly interested in this kind of family?"
"Because my fellow disciples from the Zhenwu Sect and I were in Qiongzhou and encountered bandits from the Liu family, so I wanted to know more about the Liu family," Meng Xing said.
"Then be careful! The strength of those bandits is not weak. Most of them are masters of the martial arts system and have become bandits. Even the court has a headache for them, and it is difficult to exterminate them. Those of yours
My fellow sect's cultivation level shouldn't be very high, right?" Princess Yangping said.
"Their cultivation levels are all in the seventh-grade God Refining realm, so they can still protect themselves," Meng Xing said.
"Who are you lying to? At the seventh level of the God Refining Realm, you still want to protect yourself in a bandit's den? Even I, a sixth-level Yin Shen realm, dare not say that I need to protect myself in a bandit's den." Zhuo Lingyan sneered.
"Isn't there a formation disk you carved? I've presented the formation disk, and with the protection of the formation, who dares to come in?"
"That's true. It seems that our Taoist formation is useful, and it is invincible in terms of defense." Zhuo Lingyan said quite proudly.
Princess Yangping said: "You are living a very carefree life these days! When will you find that fifth-level master of the Demon Sect for me?"
"Well! I've been here for the past two days and will follow Zhong Patou to search. In fact, I asked Zhong Patou to relax the search and only investigate in secret, in order to let the masters of the magic sect relax their vigilance and come out to do some activities.
This will increase our chances of finding them."
Princess Yangping nodded and said, "You can take care of this yourself. Find them out as soon as possible to prevent them from causing great damage to the capital."
At this moment, a guard came in, raised his hands and said: "Princess, the young master of Marquis Jingyuan is here to visit, do you want to invite him in?"
Princess Yangping frowned slightly and said, "Invite him in."
After a while, a handsome young man wearing Confucian robes walked in. He looked majestic and energetic, and looked very elegant when he walked.
"See you, Your Highness, Princess!" The handsome young man bent down and held his hands in a polite manner.
Princess Yangping nodded slightly and said: "No need to be polite! Why do you come to me to see me?"
"Lu wants to invite the princess to go for an outing and play in Qingyun Mountain outside the city the day after tomorrow. I wonder if the princess is willing to reward her? Well, I also invited some princesses and young princes to go too. There are more people and it will be more lively." Jingyuan
Hou's young master said.
"I will think about it. If you want to go, I will send someone to inform you! You should go back first." Princess Yangping gave the eviction order.
The handsome young man glanced at Zhuo Lingyan, his eyes suddenly lit up, shining slightly, but quickly hid them. He glanced at Meng Xing again, sitting next to Princess Yangping, drinking tea slowly, and couldn't help but frown.
With a smile on his face: "Which family are this young prince and this girl the young prince or princess of? How about we go on an outing with the princess then?"
Are you trying to highlight your superiority as a prince? You know that we are not wearing the clothes of nobles like you, but you still ask like this? Meng Xing felt a little bit grumpy in his heart.
However, usually those who can be with the princess so casually are usually noble princes or have very great power in the court. The other party is actually right to ask this. And those noble princes may not necessarily know how to wear it.
Clothing that symbolizes privilege.
Princess Yangping looked at them and asked, "Are you going?"
"I have been bored in your princess's mansion these days, and I have long wanted to go out for a walk." Zhuo Lingyan said.
"I still want to investigate the case, so I won't go with you." Meng Xing said.
Investigating the case? Which yamen arrester is this? The handsome young man raised the corner of his mouth slightly. His goal has been achieved, and naturally he hopes that this annoying guy will not go.
Wouldn't it be beautiful to have two stunning beauties accompanying you?
