One Piece of Song Dynasty

Chapter 166 Kidnapping (9)

Li Xin nodded and said: "Well, the sales of glazed products will continue to be like this. It's not yet time for large-scale supply. However, our store can open an appointment mode so that people who want to buy glazed products can register and pay a deposit first, and then Wait for the goods in order, and of course the quantity of glass products ordered by each person must be controlled."

The housekeeper thought for a moment and said, "Well, this is a good idea."

Li Xin added: "Uncle An, after the shipyard completes the order for one hundred ships, you will order another hundred ships, forty sand ships with a load of ten thousand stone and sixty fortune ships with a load of eight thousand stone." .”

The housekeeper nodded and said: "Okay, a certain family knows, how long will the husband plan to stay when he comes back this time?"

Li Xin replied: "About a month or so. I will leave as soon as I receive the second lady."

The housekeeper pointed at Li Xin and said: "You, you, you actually kidnapped a girl to be your wife. The first one was bought by the husband, the second one was kidnapped by the husband, and the latter planned to use it." How can we get it together? When will the husband find out that the matchmaker is marrying a wife?"

Li Xin thought to herself: I'm afraid it will be impossible for me to find out that the matchmaker is marrying me in this life.

Li Xin smiled and said: "Uncle An, there is nothing we can do about it. This kidnapped woman will be of great help to me in the future. Okay, Uncle An, let's not talk about this anymore. You can rest early. I have been sitting here all day." The boat has also gone back to rest, and I will go to the county town tomorrow to have a look."

The housekeeper sighed: "Okay, now that I've been kidnapped, Langjun must treat me well from now on. Don't treat me too slowly. Okay, Langjun, go and have a rest."

Li Xin nodded and said: "Yes, Uncle An, I remember it, and I will treat her well."

Early the next morning, Li Xin went to the county seat after breakfast. After walking around the county seat without incident, she went to the Xiang Barracks to find Zhang Hu.

Li Xin met Zhang Hu and said, "In the past few months since I left, the situation in Hui'an has been pretty good."

Zhang Hu replied: "Thank you, everything is fine, except for the fact that I was a little nervous when I first left. After all, the peasant riots in the southeast had not been suppressed at that time. However, after the peasant riots failed, everything returned to normal." .”

Li Xin nodded and said: "Well, that's right. How are you doing with the investigation into the whereabouts of the Zhao family's royal members?"

Zhang Hu whispered: "Some of them among the people in Jiangnan have been found. However, since we do not have a list of royal family members, it is not easy to find them, so the progress is not fast."

Li Xin said thoughtfully: "Well, let's monitor the part we found first. The royal family surnamed Zhao is divided into three branches, Taizu Zhao Kuangyin, Taizong Zhao Guangyi, and Zhao Tingmei. Most of the descendants of Zhao Kuangyin and Zhao Tingmei are scattered. Among the people, you should search carefully. Taizong's branch is currently in power, but it is easier to find. We still have plenty of time. In short, all members of the royal family in Jiangnan must be found."

Zhang Hu replied: "Yes, Sir, I understand."

After giving instructions to Zhang Hu, Li Xin returned home. In the following days, Li Xin waited for the arrival of Yelu Yuliyan while making her presence felt in the county town.

Twenty days later, Yelu Yuliyan, who had been drifting at sea for more than twenty days, was finally arriving in Hui'an. After boarding a big ship in Dengzhou, Suo Tao untied the rope from Yuliyan's hand and returned to Hui'an. Hai Suotao was not afraid that Yu Liyan would escape. Besides, Yu Liyan had already given up on escaping. Now she just wanted to see what kind of person Li Xin was who kidnapped her.

This morning, Yu Liyan finally saw the pier. Yu Liyan sighed: "There are many ships at this pier, and it is no worse than the pier in Dengzhou."

Suo Tao, who was standing next to Yu Liyan, said: "Princess, this pier is our master's pier. Presumably the master's family is already waiting for the princess's arrival at the pier."

Yu Liyan asked: "Are all the boats on the pier owned by your master?"

Suo Tao replied: "That's not true, because our master's family is still an imperial merchant, so there will be ships from the court at this pier to load tributes. Princess, please see, any ship flying the flag of An Li is our master's family." The family’s ship, and all the others are the imperial court’s ships.”

Yu Liyan looked at it and said: "Then your master's family has quite a few ships. I see that many of those ships are flying the flag of An Li. It seems that your master's family is really rich."

Suo Tao said: "Princess, I'm not sure about this. After all, it's been two years since I went to Cangzhou with Shopkeeper Qian. When I first left, my master's family didn't have that many ships."

After a while, the boat carrying Yu Liyan docked at the dock. Suo Tao and others escorted Yu Liyan off the boat. At this time, Li Xin also stood at the dock to welcome Yu Liyan's arrival.

After Suo Tao and others escorted Yu Liyan off the boat, Li Xin saw Yu Liyan who was already dressed in Hanfu. Yu Liyan was more beautiful and more elegant in Hanfu. Li Xin was stunned. She is worthy of being one of the two beauties named by Wanyan Zongwang in history. The other one is Maode Diji, the daughter-in-law of Song Huizong's daughter Cai Jing.

When Suo Tao saw Li Xin, he came forward and knelt down and said, "My subordinate Suo Tao has seen the master's house, and Princess Yu Liyan has already arrived."

After hearing Suo Tao's report, Li Xin reacted and said, "Well, you have worked hard all the way. Let's escort the princess back home first."

Yu Liyan saw Li Xin stepping forward and said, "You are Li Xin."

Li Xin replied: "Yes, I am Li Xin, the magistrate of Hui'an County, Quanzhou Prefecture, Fujian Road, Song Dynasty. If the princess has something to say, please go to Li's house first. This dock is not a place to talk, and Li is not in the house." A banquet has been prepared for the princess."

Li Xin signaled to Suo Tao and took Yu Liyan back home without waiting for Yu Liyan's reply.

After returning to the house, he brought Yu Liyan to the banquet. Li Xin said: "Princess, please sit down. Suo Tao, please take the people to guard the surrounding area. No one is allowed to enter this courtyard without X's order. X and Princess have something to do with each other." Let’s discuss important matters.”

Yu Liyan sat down obediently, and Suo Tao replied: "Yes, the master's house."

After Suo Tao led the people away, Li Xin sat down and said, "Princess, you can say whatever you want to say."

Yu Liyan said: "Li Zhixian, a small county magistrate, dares to do such a big thing behind the imperial court's back. Aren't they afraid that the court will hold them accountable after the incident? When Li Zhixian kidnapped me, aren't they afraid of triggering a war between the two countries?"

Li Xin smiled and said: "A few years ago, I would not have dared to do what I am doing now, but it is different now, and the princess does not need to be brave anymore. You and I both know what is happening in Daliao now. A few months ago you Your father ordered your mother to death because of rumors about traitorous ministers. The princess and your brother, Prince Jin, probably have little status in your father's eyes now. Even if your father finds out that someone kidnapped you, someone will probably He has no intention of starting a war with the Song Dynasty, let alone the Liao Dynasty now having a hard time facing the Jin Dynasty."
