Immediately, Ying Lan said lightly, "It seems that the offering is not enough, let's add another [-]%."

Regarding this request, the Peacock King didn't feel that there was anything wrong with it, but nodded repeatedly, "What you said is true! What you said is true!"

He is also aware of his situation now, money is just floating clouds, and it is true that he can survive safely!

Chapter 293 Dare to Snatch Lan'er's Things

Xianyang.

early morning.

"There is a performance!"

As the slightly feminine voice sounded, all the officials held their breath, and the atmosphere above the court began to become cold.

From above, Ying Zheng's eyes also fell on Baiguan indifferently.

Soon Wang Jian stood up, but his expression was very serious, he cupped his hands and said, "Return to Your Majesty, the old minister has something to say!"

Seeing that it was Wang Jian who spoke, Ying Zheng did not hesitate, and said directly, "Speak."

Wang Jian frowned, "Return to Your Majesty, the salt delivered this time is gone again."

Ying Zheng frowned, "It's gone again?"

Wang Jian was slightly ashamed, "The old minister is incompetent!"

Ying Zheng sighed softly, and then his eyes fell on Wang Jian, "Didn't you say this time is the bait? Why is it gone again?!"

This is the third time to throw salt.

The matter started a long time ago. The army that transported salt in Daqin had been safe and sound, and the income from selling refined salt was also very considerable.

Two months ago, a group of very daring bandits appeared, and they even made up their minds about Daqin's salt.

Although elite soldiers were sent to guard it, all of Daqin's refined salt was stolen.

The refined salt is very valuable, and it will be a huge loss for Daqin.

Ying Zheng attached great importance to it, and directly sent a wave of elite soldiers to encircle and suppress, but to no avail.

Then he was robbed during the second delivery, so Wang Jian took the initiative to request to be dispatched.

Thinking that his dispatch should be stable, Ying Zheng gave him refined salt as bait, but he didn't expect this to be the result.

Facing Ying Zheng's question, Wang Jian frowned, "If it's a frontal battle, those thieves are definitely not our opponents!"

"But when the old minister led his soldiers and horses to kill, although those guys carried refined salt on their backs, they were extremely fast!"

"They are agile and fled like mice, and they are very familiar with the terrain of the forest. Even if the elite soldiers tried their best to chase them, they still disappeared into the dense forest at an extremely fast speed."

"It will soon disappear without a trace, even the veteran has nothing to do!"

Hearing Wang Jian's explanation, Ying Zheng was also taken aback, his brows furrowed, "Is their speed really that fast?"

Wang Jian looked solemn, "Judging by that speed, they must have received professional training, and it was extremely strict training!"

"So although the thief is not good at fighting, his speed is absolutely unparalleled!"

Hearing this, Ying Zheng's eyes were also slightly cold, "It seems that they came prepared, otherwise they would never have been so well prepared!"

Just because the bandit had received professional training, Ying Zheng also knew that the bandit was definitely not an ordinary person.

After all, they were not only elite soldiers, but even Wang Jian was a helpless bandit, so it goes without saying about his strength.

And the appearance of such a powerful bandit is absolutely impossible to be a coincidence.

Obviously someone did it on purpose and came prepared.

Hearing this analysis, Wang Jian nodded again and again, "I think so too, but I don't know which force is so bold and dares to oppose Daqin!"

Now that Wang Jian was helpless, Ying Zheng also knew that this matter was difficult to handle, so his eyes fell on Baiguan, "Do you have any good ideas to solve this matter?"

Soon Li Si stood up, cupped his hands and said, "If you can't deal with the bandit, how about changing lanes?"

"If you avoid that bandit, it must be able to temporarily solve this problem."

Hearing this, Wang Jian frowned, "But that's the shortest road. If you change lanes suddenly, it will cost more manpower and material resources than 01:30."

On the top, Ying Zheng's eyes also changed slightly, "If they exist only to grab salt, do you think changing lanes will be useful?"

After the words fell, Ying Zheng's eyes also fell on Li Si, thoughtful.

Hearing this, Li Si frowned slightly, and fell silent for a while, as if he was thinking about this matter carefully.

After a while, Li Si opened his mouth, cupped his hands and said, "It's my humble minister who didn't think about it."

He also heard Wang Jian's speech just now, so he naturally knew that the bandit was unusual and definitely existed to target Daqin.

This kind of well-prepared, well-organized and disciplined team must not escape their claws if they only talk about changing lanes.

After all, with their speed, they can definitely catch up again.

Hearing this, Wang Jian stood up directly, cupped his hands and said, "This time it was the old minister who was careless, and that's why he suffered an unfamiliar loss and let those thieves escape!"

"Your Majesty, please give the old minister one more chance. If the old minister regroups, he will definitely be able to take down those thieves!"

Up above, Ying Zheng didn't rush to express his opinion on this proposal, but his eyes were slightly contemplative.

After a while, Ying Zheng said, "These batches of refined salt are worth a lot of money, right?"

Hearing this question, Li Si was taken aback.

But since it was asked by Ying Zheng, although he was puzzled, he continued to speak, "The first batch is worth 500 million taels of gold. If you add up the second and third batches, the total is more than 1000 million taels of gold!"

Hearing this, Yingzheng's gaze also changed slightly, "It adds up to 500 million taels of gold?"

Li Si nodded again and again, "That's right! This fine salt is much more refined than the salt of the Maurya Dynasty before. Because of this, its value is also much higher than that of the Maurya Dynasty. It can be said to be immeasurable!"

Hearing this, Ying Zheng nodded slightly, "This thing is very valuable! So it is!"

Seeing Ying Zheng's appearance, the officials were also slightly puzzled.

Immediately, Ying Zheng said directly, "Forget it, this matter will be resolved by the widow!"

Seeing this, the officials were a little puzzled, but Ying Zheng wasn't going to explain anything, and the officials didn't dare to ask more.

Only Li Si frowned, "Then do you still ask about this?"

Ying Zheng shook his head slightly, "No need, let's go to court!"

……

After the morning court, Ying Zheng did not return to the palace in a hurry, but stopped Li Si.

Seeing that Yingzheng kept him secretly, Li Si was stunned for a moment, and looked at Yingzheng with even more doubts, "What orders does Your Majesty have?"

Ying Zheng's eyes fell on Li Si, and he said directly, "Is there any news about Lan'er recently?"

Li Si frowned, "This... I don't even know about the young master's actions recently..."

Ying Zheng frowned slightly, "Is that so..."

Then his eyes did not change, "Go and inquire more, the widow has something to do with him!"

Li Si cupped his hands, "Yes!"

It wasn't until he left that Ying Zheng muttered, "Lan'er, Lan'er, you can't just sit idly by when someone robs you?!"

After thinking about it, Ying Zheng felt relieved.

After all, among other things, if Ying Lan makes a move, the matter will be settled!

Chapter 294 Is Your Kid Misunderstood About Not Handling?

After finishing the matter of the Peacock Dynasty, Ying Lan had just returned to Xianyang, before he had time to rest, Li Si hurried over.

When he entered the palace and saw Ying Lan, Li Si was overjoyed, "That's great! You are finally back, my lord!"

Seeing Li Si, Ying Lan was also taken aback, and couldn't help frowning slightly, "Is Prime Minister Li doing something?"

Li Si said with a slightly strange expression, "Your Majesty has been looking for you for a long time, and has been asking if you are back. My ears are callused from being asked, and you are finally back!"

Hearing this, Ying Lan was also taken aback, with a slightly puzzled look on his face, "What is Father looking for from this Young Master?"

Li Si didn't know much about this question, so he could only shake his head slightly, "I don't know the specific minister, son, you should go and see His Majesty quickly!"

Seeing Li Si's anxious look, Ying Lan also guessed if Ying Zheng had something urgent, so he said directly, "I see, my son will go!"

······

Under the leadership of Li Si, Ying Lan didn't write any ink, and ran directly towards Ying Zheng's palace.

All the way was unimpeded, and he came directly to Ying Zheng.

Seeing Ying Lan, Ying Zheng immediately put down the memorial in his hand, and his eyes fell on Ying Lan with even more joy.

Ying Lan clasped his hands in salute, "I have seen my father!"

Ying Zheng waved his hands, his expression slightly agitated, "Lan'er doesn't need to be too polite! No need to be too polite!"

Seeing Ying Zheng's appearance, Ying Lan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he began to think in his heart.

[Father looks like this, is it possible that there is something that I can't do? 】

[But it doesn't feel like a good thing...]

Hearing that voice, Ying Zheng was also a little speechless.

What is this brat thinking?

Anyway, being a father is also your father, so can it still harm you?

When Ying Zheng was muttering in his heart, Ying Lan also said directly, "I heard that the emperor is looking for my son?"

Regarding this question, Ying Zheng didn't have any ink marks, and said directly, "That's right! The widow really has something to ask you for!"

Hearing this, Yinglan's gaze also changed slightly, and he began to mutter in his heart.

【Isn't the father asking me to solve some troublesome matter again? 】

[I wasted a lot of time on helping Su last time, I don't want to bother with these troublesome things anymore! 】

[If the emperor asks me again, then I will find an excuse to push it away! 】

Hearing Ying Lan's heartfelt voice, Ying Zheng was not in a hurry, but muttered lightly.

Brat!

As a father, I want to see if you can push this matter today!

Then Ying Lan asked, "I don't know why the father is so anxious to find his son, why is there something important?"

Ying Zheng also said lightly, "Actually, it's not a big deal, it's just that there's something wrong with the refined salt, so I want to ask Lan'er if you can do anything about it?"

Hearing this, Li Si's eyes changed slightly, and he also took a slightly shocked look at Ying Zheng.

At the same time, I also muttered about Kari.

Your Majesty can't be serious, can he?

A problem that even General Wang Jian can't solve, and you want to find Gongzi Lan to solve it?

Li Si still felt a little surprised by this choice.

After all, this is not a simple problem, but a difficult problem that even a veteran like Wang Jian could not handle well.

Although after observing for a period of time, he also found that Ying Lan didn't seem to be as simple as it seemed, and secretly had some strength.

But if it is possible to easily solve this kind of problem, then Li Si thinks it is still very difficult.

Ying Lan who was at the side was also taken aback when he heard the words, "Is there something wrong with the refined salt?"

Regarding Ying Lan, Ying Zheng did not hide anything, and said directly, "That's right! The refined salt that was originally planned to be sold was stolen! This is the third batch!"

Ying Lan's eyes changed slightly.

[Who is so courageous to even steal Daqin's refined salt? ! 】

Although slightly puzzled, Ying Lan didn't want to pay any attention to it, but said lightly, "Since it was stolen, it's fine for the father to be found back!"

"The most indispensable thing in the palace is talents. Those fierce generals can just find any one. If you give them some more soldiers and horses, won't they be able to get them back?"

Ying Lan still has confidence in the strength of General Daqin.
