    After these officials drank a lot of water, Li Ci finally arrived belatedly.  Before entering the door, her eyes quietly turned around on the faces of these officials and found that some of them looked familiar.  After entering the door, she apologized slightly and said, "Everyone has been waiting for a long time."

    ¡°Have you been waiting for a long time? I have already drank two cups of tea.

    The officials only dared to criticize a few words in their hearts, but on their faces they were frightened and did not even dare to say so.  How come they don't know that King Yong is deliberately leaving them hanging, but even so, they have to wait.

    Li Ci asked them to sit down, and asked the waiter to make a new pot of tea. He picked up the teacup and served tea to them.  The officials' faces turned green when they saw the tea, but they couldn't refuse it and had no choice but to drink it.

    With the water in my belly, I don¡¯t know if there will be any sound of water if I shake it.

    "I wonder what important matters you have come here, sir?" Li Ci asked knowingly, Shishi said.

    The officials knew that she was pretending to be dumb but they had nothing to do. After looking at each other, they revealed that the speaker was the middle-aged official who had just praised the tea. This person was the highest ranking among the officials, and he was Yongzhou Salt.  The chief of the political department, the fourth-grade Salt Minister, looks good.  He stood up, cupped his hands towards Li Ci and said, "Reporting to Your Highness, I am here to ask about salt a few days ago."

    The so-called salt inquiry is that over the years, the Salt Administration Department has identified the quality of the salt entering the salt warehouses in Fuzhou and County, registered it, and then made salt according to the quantity, and then ascertained the qualifications of the salt merchants to sell official salt.  The rules are like this, but in fact it is difficult to be precise in certain operations. For example, there are no clear terms and conditions for the salt merchant's qualifications to sell official salt. What is considered qualified.

    This gives officials a huge room for maneuver, which is extremely vague.  Among the salt merchants who were qualified to sell salt in previous years, who did not have some relationship with the officials in Yongzhou who could speak well?

    But this time there was no ambiguity. Li Ci took action and only asked people to find out whether there were any salt merchants who deliberately raised the price of salt and exchanged inferior salt for superior ones in the past three years. If so, they would be exempted from the official salt sales qualification, otherwise the same would apply.  Past examples.

    After an investigation, it was found that nearly 50% of the salt merchants were unqualified, many of them were famous and large salt merchants.  Li Ci would naturally not show mercy and exempted all these people from their qualifications.

    How long had passed before these people couldn't help but jump out one by one.

    "But what's the problem?" Li Ci pretended to be confused, and she humbly said, "When I first took office, my talents and knowledge are shallow. Your Majesty entrusted the land of Yongzhou to me, for fear of failing. You all are the same.  A talented person who has lived in the south of the Yangtze River for many years and has been an official for many years must have more experience in governing the people than I do. If you are wrong, please speak up."

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????: A humble and courteous attitude, ready to accept loyal advice.

    ¡°These officials just thinkit¡¯s so shameless.

    The officials felt as if they had swallowed a fly in their mouths and had to swallow it, while praising King Yong for his humility.  Even if King Yong is pretending to be stupid with them, they have to go along with it.

    "Your Highness, there is nothing wrong with asking about salt. It's just that if those salt merchants are not allowed to sell official salt, the salt market in Yongzhou will probably be in turmoil." It was the sharp-mouthed monkey-cheeked man who spoke.  An official, this person served in the Salt Administration Department of Yongzhou, and his official position was not low, just under the Minister of Salt Management.

    "How do you say this?" Li Ci showed some doubts.

    The official looked happy and said: "Your Highness has only been sealed for a short time. I'm afraid you don't know that these salt merchants have been operating not only in Yongzhou but also in Jiangnan for a long time, and their roots are not small. If they are completely removed this time,  If they have resentment in their hearts, it¡¯s not a good thing to be afraid.¡±

    After saying this, the remaining officials also agreed one after another.

    Li Ci¡¯s eyes swept over these people one by one, and finally stopped at Yan Zhi, the Minister of Salt, and asked, ¡°Does this mean that Minister Yan also thinks so?¡±

    With these words, everyone¡¯s eyes suddenly focused on Yan Zhi.

    "Your Highness." The man who had been transparent for a while calmly put down the tea cup in his hand and said to Li Ci, "In the past, after Yang Zhuan envoy patrolled the salt, most of the official salt sales in Jiangnan this year were entrusted.  For these salt merchants, as time goes by, people will spontaneously go to their shops to buy salt."

    This was said to a high standard. I neither agreed nor objected to what those officials said. I just told the truth.

    Li Ci understood clearly that the Salt Manager of the Salt Administration Department was not going to stand out today, and he looked like a companion.  As for whether it is true, so what?

    She put away her gentle expression, her eyebrows were cold, and she said with a half-smile: "You are all capable ministers who help the country, how can you stumble over this little stone? If it spreads, wouldn't it be a joke?"

    ???Except for the first few important banquets and a few banquets that everyone was invited to attend, King Yong went to let the upper class people recognize his face. The rest of the people who wanted to see her could only go to King Yong's Mansion.

    But no one can meet King Yong and Princess Yong just because they want to pay a visit.

    King Yong didn¡¯t take action, but when he did, he almost overturned the entire salt market, and the fallen salt merchants were thrown into disgrace.  But for now, the situation is pretty good. At least the officials involved are all minor officials, quite a few important people, and the situation is still under control.

    ¡°Many people are beginning to be on tenterhooks, hoping that the matter will stop here, as it will be bad if it continues.

    After a few days, everything seemed to be calm again, and some people secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

    After a few days of calm, Prince Yong's Mansion became somewhat peaceful.  In the garden, the cool breeze was blowing. Li Ci was throwing a pot. She was holding an arrow. The vase was placed outside the shooting range. The mouth of the bottle was slightly narrow, so it was not easy to hit it. There was already a slap scattered next to it.  Several arrows were shot, but Li Ci failed to hit them.
