Wearing a secret agent with many tricks, the cold and proud prince flirts easily

After visiting Jinwei City for several days, the group headed to the capital the next day.

The carriage stopped at an inn to feed the horses, and Murong Hao received the news reported by the secret guard at the carriage window.

"Your Highness, Concubine De was given poisoned wine and died in the Tianlao. The entire Wang family was executed, and the three tribes were exiled to the southwest border three thousand miles away. The nine tribes were not implicated." A secret guard in the dark reported quietly outside the carriage window.

"Where is Prince Jin's family, are they implicated?" Murong Yuan continued to ask the secret guard.

"Back to Your Highness, Prince Jin's family was not involved in this matter, and the Emperor did not convict Prince Jin's Mansion." The secret guard said respectfully.

"Well, I know it, please step back."

Murong Hao and Lin Yunxi were both in the carriage. Now Murong Hao did not avoid Lin Yunxi in many matters. Lin Yunxi naturally heard the news.

"I never thought the Wang family would end up like this." Lin Yunxi lamented the fall of a family.

"That's because the Wang family is too greedy. Greedy people usually don't end well." Murong Hao felt that the Wang family deserved their punishment.

You must know that selling state secrets is treason. It is a favor to the Wang family that my father did not punish the nine clans.

After a day and a half of journey, the group returned to the capital.

Not long after the two had lunch, Eunuch Li, who was beside Murong Yuan, came to the Prince's Mansion in person.

"I have met His Highness the Prince." Eunuch Li saluted Murong Hao in the front hall of the Prince's Mansion.

"Eunuch Li, there is no need to be polite. I wonder why Eunuch Li came to the Prince's Mansion in person?"

"Your Majesty invites the Crown Prince and Crown Princess to come into the palace at four o'clock and have dinner in the imperial study." Eunuch Li respectfully conveyed the message.

"Thank you Eunuch Li. I and the Crown Princess will enter the palace on time." Murong Hao agreed.

After meeting Eunuch Li in the front yard, Murong Hao returned to Dongyuan.

When I entered the main room, I saw that Xi'er had already washed herself and fell asleep.

In order not to wake her up, he went into the science and technology library to take a bath, then took a bag of refined salt from the kitchen of the villa and left the science and technology library.

He came to the desk and sat down. He was going to meet his father today and he needed to prepare something.

He opened the bag of salt, poured the salt into the paper bag commonly used in Dongsheng Kingdom, and then picked up a pen and paper to write something.

After writing four or five pages eloquently, Murong Hao glanced at his watch and realized it was time to wake up Xi'er.

"Xier, get up. You are going to the palace to meet your father tonight." He called her, patting the quilt gently.

"Murong Hao, are you going to the palace again?" Lin Yunxi had been sleeping for nearly two hours. He was awakened and woke up soon after.

"Be good, I still have half an hour for you to get ready." He said warmly, arranging the messy hair on her head.

"Do you want to take Ze'er with you?" She sat up and asked without staying in bed.

"Father should have something serious to discuss with us today, so Ze'er can stay in the mansion." Murong Hao said, tying up her messy black hair.

"Okay, get up." Lin Yunxi stretched and stood up quickly.

Lin Yunxi went to the closet to pick out clothes and saw the salt prepared by Murong Hao on the desk and a few pages of what he had written.

"Husband, are you going to discuss the salt-drying technique with your father tonight?" She turned around and asked him.

"Well, it's time to talk. The people are waiting for cheap salt to eat." Murong Hao said warmly.

"Husband should also bring the gray-white salt we dried from the sea with us, so that there is contrast." She remembered that she gave the unrefined table salt to Tianyi for safekeeping.

"Xi'er is so thoughtful." Murong Hao forgot about the salt.

After a while, the two of them got dressed up and went out. After Wentian picked up the bag of unrefined salt, they got on the carriage and went to the palace together.

In the imperial study room, the two of them entered the door and bowed respectfully.

"My son (daughter-in-law) has met my father."

"Get up and sit down." Seeing the two people saluting, Murong Yuan stood up from the dragon chair above and walked down.

The two of them waited for Murong Yuan to sit down before sitting down.

"Haoer's poison has been cured?" Murong Yuan glanced at Murong Hao.

The reason why he asked the two people to come here today was to see how his son was doing. Moreover, he also heard about Li Mai's case in Jinwei City and wanted to ask them what was going on.

"Go back to Father, it's all settled." Murong Hao replied respectfully, and the two of them glanced at their father guiltily.

"It must be solved, otherwise I wouldn't have the energy to go out and play." There was something in Murong Yuan's words.

Murong Hao didn't answer this time.

"Have you heard everything about the Wang family?" Murong Yuan saw that the two of them were silent and continued to ask.

"Go back to my father, I heard about it." Murong Hao replied with just a few words.

"You two can create a shocking case as soon as you show up."

I don't know if it's a coincidence or something, but as long as the son and daughter-in-law fight against people they don't deal with, those people's crimes will always surface from the dark. This was the case with the Gao family before, and it is the same with the De Fei family today.

The two of them didn't know how to answer the conversation and continued to remain silent.

"What have you gained from going to Jinwei City this time?" Murong Yuan continued to ask.

"Back to my father, I went to Jinwei City to listen to a case of mountain bandits. From that case, I came up with an idea. This is my proposal, which is about to be submitted to my father."

Murong Hao knew that he couldn't hide the incident at the Jinwei City Yamen from his father, so he simply mentioned it first.

With that said, he handed a stack of paper in his sleeve to Murong Yuan.

Murong Yuan took the plan he wrote and read it.

After reading it, he raised his eyes and looked at his son.

"Almshouse? This will increase the pressure on the treasury. Has Hao'er ever thought about this problem?" Murong Yuan looked at Murong Hao with his deep eyes.

"Father, the Almshouse is what the people want. Only by taking good care of the orphans and elderly people in the city will the people not feel cold towards the court. Of course, those who can enter the Almshouse must go through strict screening. They must He is an orphan without a father and a mother, a lonely old man without a child,

As for the pressure on the treasury, I have also thought about this issue. Some of them are actually capable of working, but they just can't find a way to make a living.

The court can assign some simple tasks to them. For example, some of them can embroider, some can make clothes, and some can engrave. They can let them do these trivial tasks in many logistics branches in the army, and save the need to recruit others. other labor costs,

In fact, the most important thing of the nursing home is to consider the people, consolidate the people's hearts, make the people appreciate the court, and then avoid civil unrest in some places. "

Murong Hao spoke a long paragraph of his simple thoughts, and Murong Yuan listened carefully.

This son rarely spoke such long words in front of me. It seemed that he was very concerned about the construction of the almshouse, otherwise he would not have written such a thick stack of paper proposals.

"Well, Hao'er's idea is very good. Let my father think about it and discuss it with the officials tomorrow morning. If it is feasible, it can be implemented in the prefectures and counties near the capital first."

Murong Yuan did not immediately agree to the proposal. After all, this was a matter that required money from the treasury. He had to discuss it with hundreds of officials before making a decision.

"My son understands that it is indeed necessary to discuss with the officials." Murong Hao also knew that his father would not agree to his proposal immediately, so he was not in a hurry.

The few of them chatted about other household matters, and Eunuch Li reported outside the hall that dinner was ready.

Several people had dinner again in an atmosphere of silence.

After dinner and several people washed their hands, Murong Hao and Lin Yunxi said to the side.

"Princess, we haven't paid my respects to the Queen Mother for a long time. Why don't you go and pay my respects to the Queen Mother on my behalf tonight?"

Lin Yunxi knew that Murong Hao was going to talk about the salt-drying technique next, so she wisely agreed and exited the imperial study.
