    As soon as the father and daughter announced their true rivals, Lin Ruhai's confidant came to report that Jinling was also suffering from a shortage of salt.

    After hearing this, Daiyu said calmly: "Heaven is going to kill Zhen Yingjia. Not only is his wisdom one step behind others, but his luck is also not good." Then she stood up, bowed and said, "My father is busy with official duties, so Yu'er will go down first."  ¡±

    Lin Ruhai glanced at Daiyu meaningfully, nodded and said, "Yuer, go first."

    As Daiyu said, Zhen Yingjia is not as smart as the operators in Suzhou, and his luck is not as good.  Since the issue of lack of salt in Jinling has caused a stir today, it proves that Zhen Yingjia was planning this matter at least when the trouble occurred in Suzhou.

    ¡°It¡¯s just that the riot in Suzhou started only a few days earlier, and indeed the governor of Jiangnan, the prefect of Suzhou, and Lin Ruhai were all forced to scramble for several days.  Jinling was a few days late, but the imperial decree for Lin Ruhai to be re-elected as the salt inspector arrived, and the salt guide from the Ministry of Revenue was also issued.

    Even if those salt merchants wanted to get Lin Ruhai's share of the new salt quota, Lin Ruhai told them to go east, and no one dared to go west.  The Jinling incident didn't cause any trouble at all. To what extent was there no splash?  When people heard that there was a shortage of salt, they went to the shop and asked, and the shopkeeper directly said that there were enough salt tubes and the price would not increase.

    In fact, the news that Lin Ruhai was re-elected and that the imperial court approved the increase in salt quota reached Zhen Yingjia only one day later than it reached Yangzhou.  What does that mean?  That is, if the trouble in Jinling occurs a few days earlier, which is about the same time as Suzhou, Lin Ruhai will have to stabilize the salt prices in the two places, which will greatly increase the difficulty of fighting on two fronts. It may not be so easy to survive safely; if it is one day later, Zhen Yingjia will get  Once the imperial court agrees with the exact information on increasing the share of salt, it will stop at the brink and will not instruct people to spread rumors and cause trouble.

    This is what Dai Yu said about Zhen Yingjia's wisdom chess, which was one move short of success and even bad luck.  With just such a one-day time difference, there was no fuss, and it was a waste of time to add another crime to myself in the future.

    The incident in Jinling did not cause any trouble, and other places became more and more peaceful.  The situation in Jiangnan has been temporarily stabilized.

    Taking advantage of this opportunity to breathe, Lin Ruhai and his daughter rushed into the study to review the civil unrest in Suzhou.

    If Lin Ruhai was shocked when Daiyu saved Lin You for the first time, then after this stabilization of salt prices, Lin Ruhai was impressed by Daiyu's wisdom.  After this incident, Lin Ruhai no longer regarded Daiyu as a daughter, but as a counselor and think tank, and communicated on an equal footing when discussing affairs in the government and court.

    In the words of later generations, the war between Lin Ruhai and the other party over the price of salt was an ancient economic war.  Daiyu had read about the cruelty of economic warfare cases in the books of later generations. Businessmen were called capitalists in later generations. For the sake of profit, capitalists would disregard the wealth and lives of thousands of people and kill without blood.

    In the past, Daiyu was just reading books, which made Daiyu sigh incessantly.  Now that she had personally participated in an ancient version of the economic war, Daiyu felt even more exhausted after the war.

    If the salt price war is not brought under control and affects the subsequent spring plowing, tens of thousands of lives will be paid.  The cause of this cruel ancient economic war was the struggle for power among several princes.  Political struggles have always been so cruel, and everyone involved in the political situation, from high-ranking officials to rich and well-paid people, to the poor and common people, has their own set of circumstances.

    Lin Ruhai saw a look of compassion appropriate to her age on her beloved daughter's face. After waiting for a while, she said, "Then Yu'er thinks who pushed the salt price out of control in Suzhou this time?" As for the scene in Jinling, there wasn't even a splash.  The farce is not worth resuming the relationship between father and daughter.

    Daiyu took two pieces of paper, gave one to Lin Ruhai, and said with a smile: "If there is a motive for doing this, there is one person and one person secret. How about my father and I write it out separately and then exchange the answers."

    Seeing that Daiyu was interested, Lin Ruhai also picked up the pen from the pen holder, dipped it in ink, and wrote a few words.

    Daiyu also picked up a pen to write. The father and daughter exchanged papers and glanced at them, their expressions changed.

    Lin Ruhai saw the words written by Dai Yu, "Destroyed forever"; Daiyu saw the words written by Lin Ruhai, "Dirty direct descendants will be destroyed".

    The father and daughter thought of something, and they looked at each other and smiled. Daiyu put the paper in her hand into the charcoal basin; but Lin Ruhai stared at the piece of paper written by Daiyu in trance for a while.

    My beloved daughter is quick-thinking and has insight into the important affairs of the court. She even writes a single word with great grace, not to mention that it is not as written by a seven-year-old girl. If many students who have read poetry and books are not talented enough, they may not be able to write for decades even if they are not talented enough.  I can practice this stroke of calligraphy.

    Daiyu saw her father staring at her handwriting in a daze, and then she came back to her senses as soon as her beautiful eyes turned.  Life in Rongguo Mansion was difficult in his previous life, especially the three years after his father's death.  In addition to occasionally playing with her sisters, DaiyuAs the emperor reigned for a long time, the other princes gradually became more powerful. The Ninth Prince grew older day by day, and his ambition and ability also became more competitive.

    How does it compare when your sister¡¯s son becomes emperor and when your own biological son becomes emperor?  Little Concubine Zhong is not a saint. Seeing this opportunity, it makes sense for her to turn towards her son.  On the other hand, Your Highness, I would like to say a disrespectful word to my father in private. If Your Highness still feels that Duke Cheng'en is a reliable ally, that is His Highness's own problem.  Today, my father can help the prince to survive this calamity, but there is no guarantee that the prince will not trust the wrong person again in the future.  The crown prince of a country is not worthy of being naive; trusting others is even more taboo.  "

    The more I write, the more I feel that Daiyu like this should be in a temple. Who is the male protagonist?  Does Daiyu still need it?

    Author: I don¡¯t care, there is a male protagonist in this article, although he is not there yet.
