However, Lin Xing reacted quickly and raised her eyebrows and asked: "So my guess is right, that thing is the fairy ointment, right?"

Xiao Yi fell silent again and then went offline directly.

"You actually have a temper." Lin Xing couldn't help laughing.

Lin Xing breathed a sigh of relief when she was sure that it was what she thought and that the future would not develop in the direction she was worried about.

The most important thing now is to find out who brought that thing to Qing Dynasty.

Early the next morning, before Lin Xing woke up, she heard Zhao Jie's voice, "Mom, wake up quickly, the prince is here! Something has been found at Dongling Pharmacy!"

As soon as she heard the words Dongling Pharmacy, Lin Xing immediately rolled out of bed. With Chun Mian and Chun Xiao waiting on her, she washed, changed clothes, dressed up, and ran out quickly, asking, "What did you find?"

"Sister-in-law, please slow down, don't be in such a hurry." Zhou Yan looked at the moth hair crown flapping on Lin Xing's head, and a smile appeared in the corner of his eyes.

Zhao Jie stared at her hair crown and asked: "Why are you wearing such a childish hair crown?"

"What do you know? This is an antique made in imitation of the Southern Tang Dynasty. It's expensive." Lin Xing rolled her eyes at him angrily, then turned to ask Zhou Yan, "Persimmon hasn't had breakfast yet? Go to the flower hall and talk while eating."

"

With that said, she asked Chun Mian to arrange the meal, while she led a group of people to the flower hall.

After sitting down, Zhou Yan saw that Lin Xing was anxious and said bluntly: "Zhang Ping squatted outside Dongling Pharmacy all night and found a pair of carriages and horses passing by Dongling Mausoleum late at night and entering the backyard of Dongling Pharmacy.

There are also many boxes in the car, and I'm afraid they contain the fairy ointment you mentioned."

"Is there anyone who can find out who the carriage and the horse are?" Lin Xing asked after thinking for a while.

Zhou Yan had already sent people to keep an eye on Dongling Pharmacy before, but never found a large amount of fairy ointment coming in, indicating that they delivered the fairy ointment very far apart.

But Dongling Pharmacy obviously doesn't have that many manpower, which means they have other helpers in Yuzhou.

Hearing this question, Zhou Yan raised his lips and smiled, "It sounds like you know this man. Not only do you know him, but you also have an old relationship with Young Master Zhao."

Lin Xing glanced at Zhou Yan strangely, unsure whether he was talking about the original owner or herself.

But after thinking about it, I realized that if it were the original owner, he probably wouldn't have said this, so I only came into contact with him after I got to know him...

"Could it be the Nian family?" Lin Xing suddenly realized.

When Zhao Jie heard the name of the Nian family, he immediately gritted his teeth angrily: "If it's really those bastards, I will definitely kill that turtle son Nian Ruipeng!"

"If it is really the Nian family, then they are absolutely to blame for their death." Lin Xing's voice also turned cold.

"I only had time to find out that those carriages and horses were sent by the Nian family, but I didn't have time to investigate more. Zhang Ping is still outside. He will return to Nanluogu Lane a little later. We will know then." Zhou Yanbu

He said calmly.

"How did the Nian family come into contact with something like fairy ointment?" Zhao Jie was full of curiosity.

It's not his boast, the Zhao family is involved in all the businesses that can be done in Yuzhou City, but they have never even heard of the fairy ointment, let alone being involved in it.

"Maybe it's not that the Zhao family hasn't contacted him, but that your father refused." Zhou Yan stared at Zhao Jie solemnly and said.

He did not elaborate, but Zhao Jie soon understood that since the Immortal Ointment did not belong to the Daqing Dynasty, it was transported from the sea.

If merchants want to open sea routes, they need the approval of the government. The Zhao family has never opened sea routes. Firstly, because his father is unwilling to take risks, and secondly, because he once rejected the prince. Even if he wanted to apply to the government, he would be rejected.

He refused, so my father simply stopped touching this soft nail.

After these days, Zhao Jie has learned a lot from Zhao Zhong, knows a lot of past events, and his mind is more flexible than before.

Having already thought of this step, we can naturally deduce the relationship between the Nian family and the prince.

"It seems that the Nian family has surrendered to the prince." Zhao Jie said thoughtfully.

"The prince will not pay attention to a mere Nian family." Zhou Yan smiled and shook his head.

Even though the Nian family is considered rich and powerful, compared with the Zhao family, it pales in comparison. The prince tried so hard to chew off the bones of the Zhao family, but how could the Nian family satisfy his appetite?

However, Zhao Jie's words also made Zhou Yan think of something.

For example, who opened the sea route for the Nian family?

Who was the matchmaker for the Nian family and let him start the fairy ointment business?

They can't rush into investigating the things behind this, otherwise they will arouse the prince's suspicion. When the time comes, they will alert the enemy. Even if they sue the emperor, they have no chance of winning.

Chunxiao took the tea cup and retreated, leaving only the three of them in endless silence in the flower hall.

After a while, Zhao Jie looked up at Zhou Yan, then at Lin Xing, and said: "This matter has to be started from the Nian family. The two elders of the Nian family are vixens. The only one who can start is

It’s smaller.”

"Nian Ruipeng?" Lin Xing thought of the young man who was as thin as a bamboo pole, "What are you going to do?"

"Nian Ruipeng has a special liking for Xiao Hongxiu in Chunfeng Tower. Xiao Hongxiu will receive guests for the first time in Chunfeng Tower in three days. Nian Ruipeng will definitely go." Zhao Jie said, rubbing his chin maliciously.

, "Nian Ruipeng has always felt that our Zhao family has declined to this point. When the time comes, if I and him bid wildly, he will definitely be fooled. But since Nian, the old fox will never give him money, so he can only beg me."

Lin Xing glanced at Zhao Jie and said with a smile: "Now he is the only one who feels that the Zhao family is in decline? Since the family division, who in the entire Yuzhou City does not feel that the Zhao family is in decline?"

That being said, Lin Xing still asked: "How much money are you going to pay to challenge him?"

"Nian Ruipeng can't use more than three thousand taels of silver, but if he fights against me, he will have to at least double it." Zhao Jie leaned back on his chair with a smile, looking arrogant.

, eliciting a warning look from Zhou Yan.

In front of Zhou Yan, Zhao Jie did not dare to get carried away, so he had to maintain a straight posture and said: "Don't worry, I will handle this matter for you without spending a penny!"

Lin Xing didn't believe it, but seeing Zhao Jie's promise, she asked him to go ahead and do it. If the money was not enough, just go to Zhao Ji Bank to get it.

Zhao Jie got the right words and immediately left with a smile.

Seeing him leaving without even eating breakfast, Zhou Yan raised his eyebrows and asked, "Do you believe he can settle this matter?"

"Zhao Jie is not a fool." Lin Xing propped her forehead and looked at the door, "I also want to know if he can get this done."

If it can really be done, I should also consider hiring a husband for him to guide him on the right path.

Thinking of what Xiao Yi told her about Zhao Jie's fate, Lin Xing sighed deeply.
