Chapter 1056: Let them steal the chicken but lose the rice
Xiao Chongyuan was silent again.

His Adam's apple rolled up and down.

If he didn't exercise any restraint, he might jump up on the spot and dance.

After a moment of silence, he chuckled and said, "You must have learned this mouth from me."

Bai Mingwei's eyebrows arched: "That's natural. It's called red when you're close to vermillion, and black when you're close to ink. You're so smooth-tongued, and I've also learned a lot of tricks with your words."

Xiao Chongyuan pursed his lips: "Should I be happy after hearing your description? Or should I be disappointed?"

Bai Mingwei couldn't help laughing: "It's the sudden distance and sometimes closeness that makes you scratch your head and make you desperate, don't you think so?"

Xiao Chongyuan said: "This is called giving a sweet date a slap. But as long as you eat the sweet date, no matter how painful the slap is, you will forget it."

Bai Ming cleared his throat slightly and was about to speak when there was movement from outside.

"Your Majesty Ninth Prince, you can't go in."

It was the voice of the guard in the courtyard.

The two of them suppressed their smiles at the same time and faced the direction of the courtyard entrance.

Liu Yao pushed away the guard and raised his eyes to look into the courtyard.

What caught his eye were the figures of Bai Mingwei and Xiao Chongyuan sitting together at the stone table.

Bai Mingwei was sitting on the stone bench, while Xiao Chongyuan was half-leaning on the wicker chair.

The two of them did not speak or make any unnecessary movements.

Just sitting like that made Liu Yao narrow his eyes——

It's so familiar, this scene is so familiar.

He stared intently at Xiao Chongyuan, a man who had nothing to do with Master Feng.

Even though their styles and temperaments were completely different, he was still asked to associate the two people with one another.

At the palace banquet, Xiao Chongyuan and Feng Military Master appeared at the same time.

Of course he knew about it.

However, despite this, the idea that Xiao Chongyuan was the Feng Military Master still lingered in his mind and could not go away.

Bai Mingwei stood up and held his hands in his hands: "Your Highness."

Liu Yao glanced at Xiao Chongyuan coldly, and then waved: "Come out, I have something to ask you."

Bai Mingwei walked towards the entrance of the courtyard.

Liu Yao glared at Xiao Chongyuan's guard: "You lookless guy, I am talking to the general, why are you so close?"

The guard retreated silently.

Liu Yao looked around and saw no one was approaching. He lowered his voice and said, "What's wrong with being drunk today? How can you say that you just disappeared?"

He also dug deep into the ground and couldn't find any useful information, so he came here to seek Bai Mingwei's help.

When Bai Mingwei heard the words, he couldn't help but frown: "Why did Your Highness ask this question? Now that I have disappeared drunk, how do I know the reason for this?"

Liu Yao put his hands on his hips: "Don't give me the wrong look. Who doesn't know that you are closely related to Jin Chaozui? You must know some inside information."

Bai Mingwei suddenly looked up at him, and he was so frightened that he immediately took a few steps back.

Bai Ming asked quietly: "Who asked His Highness to come to see you?"

Liu Yao spoke seriously: "No one really tried to persuade me this time. I saw that you were able to provide so many kinds of wine for the envoys of the two countries to taste at the palace banquet, so I feel that you have a lot to do with Jin Chaozui."

"If those sample wines hadn't confused Beiyan's envoys, Yuanxun's signing of the transaction contract wouldn't have been so smooth. If you can get the wine, you can help me find them."

Bai Mingwei said: "I can't do anything about this matter."

Liu Yao gritted his teeth and took a few steps closer to Bai Mingwei: "Old Bai, just think that I am asking you to help me with this. My father has given me a strict order. If I can't find him, I have to raise my head to see him." .”

Bai Ming said slightly: "Your Highness is here to ask the minister. It is better to ask His Highness the Crown Prince. He has a fine private room today."

"If we didn't have any special relationship with Jin Chaozui, how could we enjoy such treatment?" At this point, Bai Mingwei said no more.

Liu Yao touched his chin and said, "I understand," and then turned around and left.

After seeing Liu Yao off, Bai Ming slightly turned around and returned to Xiao Chongyuan's courtyard.

Xiao Chongyuan asked: "Can that kid understand what you mean?"

Bai Ming smiled and said: "His Ninth Prince is very smart, so he can naturally understand what I mean. I didn't want him to fight the prince so early, but this is a good opportunity."

Xiao Chongyuan nodded: "Liu Hong is selfish and arrogant. On the day of the palace banquet, Liu Yu had already made him suspicious. If we add fuel to the fire at this time, he will definitely suffer a heavy loss."

Bai Ming raised the corner of his lips slightly: "The account books that I collected so hard before are of use now. The prince has eaten so much black money through Qin Fengye, and this time I want him to spit it out to provide more food and clothing for the soldiers on the frontier."

It turns out that the last time Bai Mingwei searched for seeds for several border cities, he cut off one of Qin Fengye's income chains.

Afterwards, she ordered people to investigate along the chain and found evidence that the prince was also profiting from it.

This order to close the door was not only to cope with the imperial court's intention to end everything, but also to force Liu Yu to bleed.

Xiao Chongyuan leaned back: "After all, Liu Yu has been in business for many years, and now he has just suffered a loss, so he must be very vigilant."

"Liu Yao is a stupid young man. He is a little clever, but he doesn't have much experience in fighting. I'm afraid he will suffer a loss."

Bai Mingwei said: "So, we have to help secretly. As long as he dares to fight against the prince, we can naturally let him find out that the prince is actually related to Jin Chaozui."

"Then I asked him to discover the prince's black money. The prince did not dare to explain the origin of the money. He could only grit his teeth and admit that the money was the dividend he earned as a drunken shareholder."

After all, doing business to make money is a much less sinful crime than tearing meat from dad's body and eating it.

According to Emperor Yuan Zhen's temperament, he could tolerate his son secretly doing business to make money, but he could not tolerate his son's plans for him.

So if he had to choose one of the two, Liu Yu could only choose to admit the appearance they wanted everyone to see - money was earned through drunkenness.

Xiao Chongyuan immediately understood: "Liu Hong checked around and found that Jin Chaozui was related to his son, and he made a lot of money."

"And just when the ministers were busy with the delivery, Liu Yu didn't say a word. Liu Hong must have thought that Liu Yu had second thoughts, and his anger cannot be underestimated."

Bai Ming nodded slightly: "In order to maintain his position, the prince will find ways to calm Emperor Yuan Zhen's anger."

"But in fact, he has nothing to do with Jin Chaozui. He can't let Jin Chaozui help the court prepare enough goods for Beiyan."

"And the emperor's purpose in trying to correct the drunkenness is money, so the prince can only send money to appease Emperor Yuan Zhen's anger and ensure his own safety."

Xiao Chongyuan patted his thighs contentedly: "In this way, Liu Yu will be able to spit out the black silver he ate, and maybe he will have to put in a lot more."

Bai Ming nodded slightly: "Exactly."

Xiao Chongyuan's slender finger bones traced the corners of his thin lips: "When the time comes when the prince cannot deliver the goods, even if Liu Hong knows that he is innocent, he will not return the money to him."

"What's more, they will also doubt the source of his money, which will make him even more suspicious. As long as he becomes suspicious, he will slowly lose his sacred heart."

Bai Ming's smile deepened: "And we need to make an appropriate contribution to the situation. First, we should push the Ninth Prince to bite him and force him to admit that he has something to do with Jin Chaozui."

"Then let him think that everything will be fine if he pays the money, so he obediently gives the money; then he is made unable to deliver the goods, so that the courtiers have hope in him and then be disappointed."

"In the end, it's not a good thing if he loses the money. But there are some risks in this process, because I can deliver the goods that the prince cannot deliver, which will cause a stench."

Xiao Chongyuan smiled so calmly: "Then we have to work hard on the details. First, let people think that the prince has something to do with Jin Chaozui."

"Then let everyone know that Liu Yu came up with the argument that he took Jinchaozui's dividends in order to find a reasonable source of income for his huge wealth."

Bai Ming's slightly raised lips never fell. She was determined to win: "Then, everyone will think that the prince must be covering up some shady activities."

"The more he conceals it, the more curious everyone will be. The more curious they are, the more they want to find out. Then the prince will be busy."

Xiao Chongyuan liked Bai Mingwei's reaction that he was confident of winning.

If he could see it, there must be a sparkling light in those beautiful eyes.

He couldn't help but chuckle: "Qin Fengye wanted to provoke Emperor Yuan Zhen because of his drunkenness, but the final outcome was that their ancestors and grandchildren's family fortunes were wiped out a lot. I believe he would like this outcome."

Bai Mingwei gently tapped his chin with his finger: "We have taken action here, and Miss Jianjia can't fall behind. It's time for her to take action."
