Heaven's Formula

"I can arrange a meeting for you." Xia Fan raised his head, "But we have to wait until this covenant is verified."

"Verify... what?"

"Of course it's the content above, you don't think anyone can understand it, do you?"

"Why...?" Wu Yueyao said intermittently, "Isn't this the secret language that you alchemists... have used?"

Did the former alchemists have to learn one more word?Even Luo Qingqing didn't mention this information.Xia Fan said calmly, "Maybe it has nothing to do with practicing alchemy, so let's cancel it. After all, this was all a hundred years ago."

"How long will it take for verification?"

Her voice was getting lower and lower.

"Hey, are you okay?" Xia Fan noticed that the other party's face was rosy and something was wrong.

Following his question, Wu Yue shook twice and tilted her body to one side.

"Master Wuyue, Lord Miko!" The man next to her hurriedly supported her and shouted anxiously.

"What's going on?" Xia Fan frowned.

"Master Wuyue was infected with wind and cold earlier, and he has not recovered, and his body is almost unable to hold on!"

He got up and walked to the other side, reached out to touch it, and found that the other side's forehead was as hot as a boil.

"She must be treated as soon as possible."

"But we lost all our belongings when we crossed the sea, and—" the man hesitated, "and you always only kill the aliens."

Aliens?

Xia Fan was startled, and stretched out his hand to lift the opponent's hood.

A pair of short pointed ears appeared in front of him.

Chapter 88 replaces

"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 monsters, 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."

"Leader!"

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 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 Yi'an 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 term."

"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 divide people to chop firewood and burn charcoal. Do you think you can get it by taking out a talisman and casting a 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!"

Chapter 89 Secrets

Back in the bedroom, Qiuyue finally couldn't hold back anymore.

"Your Highness, I have an opinion!"

"Oh?" Ning Wanjun glanced at her sideways, "Tell me?"

"Xia Fan obviously has a problem! Not to mention that he has no resistance to monsters, he can even say things like burning salt without common sense. He is not like a normal person at all! Not to mention that he is in front of you. Acting recklessly and without courtesy, you asked me earlier whether I was questioning your judgment or targeting Xia Fan, and now I have the answer!"

The princess sat on the bench with great interest, "The answer is?"

Qiuyue puffed up her cheeks, as if she was gathering courage, and after a while she said loudly, "Both!"

"I am questioning your judgment, and I also feel that there is something wrong with the other party. Since you have observed him closely, you have paid too much attention to him. If you are not also a person who is sensitive, I doubt that you have been attracted by some kind of spirit Art!" she said in one breath.

"Isn't it normal?" Ning Wanjun raised the corners of his mouth, "It's not normal - that's how he should be."

"My servant doesn't understand what you're talking about," Qiuyue gritted her teeth and walked up to the princess, then knelt down and said, "But my servant wants to know why you did this."

"What if I don't say it?"

"The servant girl is always hard to be at ease!"

The princess looked at her for a long time before sighing slightly, "I know that you are loyal to me. You have also blocked a fatal attack for me on the battlefield before, so I don't want to tell you. This is related to the Privy Council. It’s a big secret, it’s understandable for the royal family to know, but it’s different for you, it might harm you if you tell it.”

"The servant girl is not afraid!"

"Forget it," the princess stretched out her foot, "Actually, I've wanted to say it a long time ago."

"Eh?" Qiuyue looked surprised, but her movements did not hesitate at all. She supported the sole of the opponent's foot with one hand, and massaged it skillfully.

It was the princess's favorite way to relax when she was in the barracks.

"You know a secret, and there is no need for you to keep this secret. Isn't it a kind of torture? It's so interesting, but no one can share it. It's really a pity."

"Uh..." Qiuyue couldn't help but wonder if she still had the choice to go back on her word.

Looking at the posture, the princess seemed to have been waiting for her to ask.

"Have you ever heard of a listener?" Ning Wanjun closed her eyes comfortably, "A kind of incredible qi-sensing person who can hear messages that don't circulate in the world."

"The listener?" Qiuyue repeated subconsciously, "Are you sure it's not an auditory hallucination?"

Snapped!

The princess slapped her on the back of the head, and leaned back on the chair back again, "Will the auditory hallucinations make the Privy Council take strict precautions, as if they are facing an enemy?"

"Wow, you're right."

"Some of these messages are spells, some are secrets, but without exception, they are all valuable, and can even cause great disturbances in the world. Because the source of the messages is strange and incomprehensible, the listeners are not like ordinary people, but they are also very normal. "

"You mean, Xia Fan is the listener?"

"He once said that if he hadn't seen something else, he would have made the same choice as me." The princess smiled lightly, "Most people just think it sounds a little strange, but to listeners, this Word becomes a statement of fact.”

"Is it too hasty to rely on just one sentence?" Qiuyue was still a little skeptical, "Your Highness, you haven't met a real listener before, have you?"

"Of course, are you the cabbage that grows in the field?" Ning Wanjun rolled her eyes, "Besides, what I care about is not a title, but the changes he can actually bring about. For example, the problem of the salt industry , since he said he wants to solve it by himself, what can I veto? Just because he can't do it, do you think others can't do it?"

"Since the listeners are so unbelievable, why did the Privy Council ban their news?" Qiuyue asked puzzled, "Can't we call them together and work for the Privy Council?"

"Because it is rumored that the listener will lead to the subjugation of the country." Ning Wanjun wrote lightly.

The maid took a deep breath, "Perishment, subjugation of the country? Isn't that—"

"Isn't it what?" She grinned, "For me, isn't that just right?"

Qiuyue was silent for a moment, and then said with difficulty, "This... should be a rumor."

"Indeed, I think so too." The princess's answer made the maid greatly relieved, "The rise and fall of a kingdom can only be determined by one person. The reason for saying this, I guess, is because His Majesty... no, it should be It is the six kingdoms in the world, none of them want to see another Yongguo again."

Qiuyue looked confused.

Seeing her like this, Ning Wanjun shrugged, "Forget it, I will tell you another secret." She said word by word, "It is rumored that the last emperor of Yongguo is the listener."

The latter was dumbfounded.

"Now that the secret has been heard, it's time to get down to business." Ning Wanjun retracted her feet, "Go and get the pen and paper ready, I'm going to write a letter to Gyeonggi."

……

"Miss, what are your orders from Her Royal Highness?" the guard who was called asked politely.

Although Qiuyue is a maid on the surface, everyone around the third princess knows that the relationship between the two is not ordinary, so no one will really treat her as a slave.

"This letter, Your Highness requests that you send it to the Gyeonggi Privy Council as quickly as possible, and hand it over to an official named Luo Shiqi."

Qiuyue handed him a tightly wrapped paper bag, "After that, you will wait in Gyeonggi, and once the other party gives a reply, you will immediately bring the news back."

"Understood, this matter is easy to handle." The guard carefully put the paper bag into his waist pocket.

"Besides, I want you to deliver a letter along the way."

"Oh? No problem. Who do you want to give it to?"

Qiuyue took out another letter, "Young Master Yun from the Ministry of Industry."

"Young Master Yun...don't have a more specific name?" the guard asked a little surprised.

"You only need to go to the Ministry of Industry for a while, and someone will naturally tell you who Mr. Yun is." Mentioning Mr. Yun, Qiuyue's tone became lighter, "This person is the treasure of the Jizao Bureau, and even Ba Xingtian is right. He was full of praise, saying that the young master can stand up to an army."
