Jian Wu's family was pregnant in the fall of last year, and in a blink of an eye, Jian Xiaoling was admitted as a martial arts scholar, and Xiaonian also left Tianjing for several months because she wanted to send Liu Yu to the north.

In the past few months, Xiaonian communicated frequently with his family. Although he was able to know the big and small things in Jian's house, and he was able to share his knowledge and experience with his grandfather, but after all, he hadn't seen his family for a long time, so he couldn't help but miss him.

When he left the capital, he was looking forward to his unborn little cousin or little cousin, so whenever he came across something novel and interesting during the trip, he wanted to keep it first.

In addition to the things for grandfather and the elders, and those suitable for children, Xiaonian will keep a copy for the little tiger cub, and a copy for Xiaoling and the little baby. When they arrive in a bigger city, let Yu The people entrusted by the Prince's Mansion helped to take it back.

In this way, they accumulated over time, and indeed sent a lot of things back. Even Xiaoling expressed his taste in the letter, and asked Xiaonian if he was still the most beloved person of his cousin.

Xiaonian could imagine his swollen face, couldn't help laughing, and immediately became happy.

Upon seeing this, Prince Yu was very satisfied with his ability to please his little doctor in time.

Xiaonian and Liu Yu went to Prince Yu's mansion today to show the eldest son Liu Kui the wound and change the medicine.

After Prince Yu escorted the people, he went to Liu Xuan's courtyard, while Xiaonian stayed in Nanyuan to deal with the matters that should be dealt with.

After a month of recuperation, Liu Kui gradually regained his complexion. Coupled with the relief of his illness, his whole body began to rejuvenate, as if he was alive again.

Considering the degree of people's acceptance at this time, after thinking about it, Xiaonian asked Mrs. Wang to perform a small ceremony for Liu Kui so that they could feel at ease.

Anyway, there will be no recurrence, let Liu Kui and Wang think that this can eliminate the evil, and it is also a kind of psychological comfort, which is beneficial to the patient's physical and mental health.

However, out of consideration for the future of the northern border, Xiaonian still hinted to Liu Kui to some extent, hoping that he would be a good person who would fulfill his duties and love the people in the future.

——If it can lead people to be good, it is not a bad thing to have this kind of causal cycle in mind...

Mrs. Wang has been eating vegetarian food and praying to Buddha for 20 years. She was originally very devout. Now that her son can get rid of his illness, it is of course a thousand thanks, and he is determined to continue accumulating blessings for Liu Kui.

"The eldest son's affected area has recovered very well, you two can rest assured." Xiaonian smiled at Wang Shi and Liu Kui after checking.

Strange to say, when Liu Kui met Xiaonian brothers for the first time, he was a little disappointed in his heart, because they were too young.

But when the other party said that he could be saved, he seemed to grasp the straw of life-saving, and had endless expectations for the two doctors.

Later, he received diagnosis and treatment, and the initial period was extremely difficult. His mother, Mrs. Wang, was by his side and supported him, but the presence of a doctor by his side gave him a different sense of security.

So after getting along for a while, he found that he was already very dependent on the two Doctors Jane.

The older doctor Jian was not good at speaking, and he was more cautious and introverted, while the young doctor Jian in front of him was a little more amiable, plus he was handsome and handsome, with a smile on his face from time to time, so he was amiable. So Liu Kui wanted to talk to him every time.

But later Liu Kui discovered that if Doctor Jian came to change his dressing, His Royal Highness Prince Huang Shuyu would sit together in the room, which made him a little nervous.

Thinking about it later, Doctor Jian is Prince Yu's doctor, and he can cure his nightmares, so it's normal for the emperor to take him seriously.

It's just that he didn't expect that His Royal Highness Prince Yu, who seemed serious and serious, would be jealous of the doctor in private, which was a bit childish, and Liu Kui immediately felt a lot closer to him.

——Because of the grace of saving his life, he is very dependent on the two Doctors Jian, and he wants to get close to them from the bottom of his heart... From this point of view, he is the same as Uncle Huang!

I don't know that I have already guessed the truth to some extent - Liu Kui is guarding Xiaonian secretly, Liu Kui only acts as the relationship between Prince Yu and Doctor Jian, who is also very innocent and naturally close to the doctor and the patient. relation.

However, after observing for a period of time, Mrs. Wang seemed to see something different.

It's not that she thinks how close the two are, it's just that a woman has a delicate mind, so she will inevitably notice some details.

For example, the tone and attitude of Doctor Jian and Doctor Jian when they spoke to Prince Yu were both respectful, but Doctor Jian's words obviously worked a lot for Prince Yu.

It is also asking Prince Yu to avoid him. After Doctor Jian’s request, if Little Doctor Jian is present, Prince Yu will definitely look at him first and then leave. Move first, "obedient" very much.

Combined with the medical skills demonstrated by little doctor Jian some time ago, Wang finally believed that this young doctor did not rely on his grandfather's name to stay with Prince Yu at all.

——Being able to make Prince Yu "obey" the doctor's words, except that Doctor Jian really has the ability, there is nothing else to think about.

Xiaonian told Wang Shi and Liu Kui some things that need to be paid attention to, waiting for Prince Yu to drink the full moon wine, so he told them about his aromatherapy.

Essential oils can be used after pioneering wound healing. The more common compound essential oils are mainly composed of lavender, tea tree, and chamomile essential oils.

Xiaonian has lavender seeds, which can be grown by himself. Without Roman chamomile and German chamomile, chamomile can be used instead. The taste and effect are similar to Roman chamomile, but tea tree is not easy to get.

Although the tea tree is called a tea tree in China, it has nothing to do with tea at all. Its plant has long branches and white flowers.The vitality of the tea tree is strong, and the tea tree essential oil obtained by distillation has many functions such as antibacterial and anti-inflammatory.

So far, Xiaonian has not found similar plants in Jizhou, so he has not been able to get a substitute.

However, there are always thousands of combinations and countless changes in the prescription of essential oils. Xiaonian feels that everything is good, as long as it has an effect.

He prepared two bottles of compound essential oils for removing scars for Liu Kui, and also prepared essential oils for maintenance for the Crown Princess Wang. Since it is not easy to preserve, it is impossible to store them for two or three years like in Huaguo. , but it will be fine after a year.

Both Liu Kui and Wang Shi were very interested in this kind of medicinal oil with a special aroma, and they chatted around Xiaonian for a long time, and the time passed before they knew it.

When Prince Yu came to pick up his little doctor home, he found that he had two more loyal "followers".

Glancing at Liu Kui and his mother, whose eyes were shining brightly at Xiaonian, Liu Kui walked over calmly and took Xiaonian away.

——His little doctor is really likable, if you can hide him as well as the little boy hides the Jade Rabbit under his stomach, how great it would be...

……

Returning from Prince Yu's Mansion to Dudu Mansion, Xiaonian did not receive a warm welcome, but he was neither disappointed nor surprised, because he knew that the little tiger cub was on the "road" to meet him.

Sure enough, as soon as he got to the gate of the courtyard, he saw Jiang Changshi standing by the gate, and the two little guys were clinging to the big locust tree in the corner, going backwards and struggling down the tree. he.

As it was getting late, although there were lights in the courtyard, it was still dark under the locust tree, so Xiaonian saw four round light spots at the beginning—the reflection of the little guy's eyes in the light. Be careful of being seen by strangers, it is indeed a bit scary.

Of course, Little Doctor Jian, who is not used to being weird, was not afraid at all. He walked straight over, but did not hug them immediately, but let them continue to move down slowly like this, but there was an unstoppable look on his face. smile.

The little tiger cub who has arrived in a new environment but has an older brother to accompany him, so he doesn't recognize his birth, has recently been keen on some new games, such as house demolition, such as climbing trees.

Since tearing up the house might upset the older brother, most of their energy is spent climbing trees.

After the surgery on Liu Kui, Xiaonian and Liu Yu lived in Prince Yu's Mansion for four days. The little tiger cub hadn't lived such a life without an older brother or a "big guy" for a long time. , They began to vent their inexhaustible energy, causing harm to the yard of the back house of the Governor's Mansion.

Although Zheng Rong, Jiang Zhi, and Fudong were watching over him, there were no people who could really control the young master, and no one else could control him at all.

So, when Xiaonian and Prince Yu returned to Dudu's Mansion, what they saw was the appalling yard and house.

It is obviously the season of blooming flowers, but it seems that there are not many flowers left in the yard. Only the shadows of the near summer can be seen on the trees growing on the trees, while the lower flowers only have branches, leaves, and flowers. Remnants of calyx faintly visible.

Due to the short time, it was not easy for Jiang Changshi to ask the gardener from the Governor's Mansion to come to the courtyard to tidy up, so he left behind a dejected scene.

As for the inside of the house, the things they knocked and smashed these days have been "destroyed" by Jiang Changshi, but the red sandalwood furniture that the little guy messed up is difficult to repair and restore immediately.

Especially the chair that Prince Yu likes better, the tiger head on the armrest is almost bald.

Xiaonian knows that the little guy likes to find things to chew on after he grows teeth, and also likes to sharpen his claws. If he is by his side, he will never allow them to chew on unclean things.

So when he came back and found that they were disobedient, Xiaonian lost his temper very seriously, and confiscated the jade rabbits and let them sleep by themselves as punishment.

The little tiger cub was still angry at the fact that his brother and the "big guy" went out for a few days and only came back, but he was overwhelmed by Xiaonian's rare temper, he didn't dare to make trouble at all, he was very honest.

In fact, Xiaonian just stopped smiling, and his tone and expression were more serious, which was enough to make the little tiger cub obedient, more useful than making Prince Yu cold-faced.

After this lesson, they have been honest for a while. Although Xiaonian put them to sleep the next day, the cubs are still well-behaved.

Later, they became enthusiastic about climbing the pagoda trees in the yard, and successfully climbed to the lower branches several times.

And because the elder brother would not allow them to go up again, they began to explore the tree-down skills after they easily obtained the tree-up skills.

Although the little ones are a bit slow to get down to the ground, Xiaonian can't help but sigh in his heart when he sees them climb up the tree with a few babbles every day: No wonder people say that when they meet a tiger in the wild, they should not think about climbing trees or jumping into the water to escape, but should pull up their legs Just run, anyway, as long as you run past the slowest person, you can hope to survive...

Such a small guy is not a real tiger, but he has already fully demonstrated his omnipotence. Thinking about their appearance when they grow up, Xiaonian can't wait.

During the day today, the little tiger cubs knew that their elder brother and the "big guy" were going out and would not be able to come back until after dinner. They took a rest obediently after eating the milk, and then, accompanied by Jiang Jiang, started a new round of games.

When Xiaonian was about to walk over, they had already noticed it. If they were playing in the yard as usual, they could run directly to meet his brother, and ask for a hug and a hug by the way.

But just now they were tigers in the trees, and it was not so easy to get down, so they failed to squat.

"Aww ow~" "Aww~"

Realizing that his elder brother saw them moving slowly but standing beside them indifferently, and had no intention of helping them at all, the cubs immediately scrambled to call out, trying to express their inner dissatisfaction.

Xiaonian finally moved when he heard them acting coquettishly, but he just stretched out his hand to pat their little butts, which meant taking advantage of the fire.

He really wanted to be serious, but the corners of his mouth were still raised slightly. In order to prevent Kuaiai and Zaizai from blowing their hair, he immediately said: "Baby is so good, he can climb trees and come down by himself, even my brother can't do it!"

The little guy was mesmerized by his sincere compliment, and immediately forgot the "evil deed" of someone who stood by and watched, and was determined to climb down the tree by himself. They turned their heads and continued to climb along the trunk. , It is simply moving.

Xiaonian was standing beside him with his little tiger cub, and Prince Yu was standing behind him with his little doctor, and the courtyard was quiet and peaceful again...

When the cubs "landed" smoothly, they immediately jumped on Xiaonian, and were picked up by his brother as they wished.

The little guy has been separated from Xiaonian since the afternoon. Although he has always had things to do (play), he still misses him very much. He leans on his chest and uses his little claws to fiddle with the few strands of hair that hang down.

Xiaonian didn't care how dirty their little paws were, anyway, they wouldn't hurt him, so he let the cubs twirl his hair and talk to them in a low voice.

Regardless of whether the little tiger cub understood it or not, he would hum and chirp a few words, as if "echoing" what he said, and it was quite natural to ask and answer.

Because it was getting late, he didn't intend to let the little ones stay in the yard, so he carried them to the house.

Jiang Changshi saw the little doctor Jian carrying the young master into the house, and looked at his highness half a step behind.

Liu Yu withdrew his gaze from Xiaonian, and said to Jiang Zhi, "Let's go in." Then he walked into the house with his two confidants.

……

Xiaonian took the cub to the clean room to wash himself, while Liu Yu stayed in the hall to talk with Jiang Zhi and the others.

"Where are the people in the palace?" Liu Yu knew that Jiang Zhi had something to tell him.

Jiang Zhi really said immediately: "Reporting to Your Highness, Doctor Feng from Angel and Tai Hospital has entered Xing'an County, and will arrive at the county government at the latest the day after tomorrow."

Once the people sent by the imperial court arrive in Xing'an, they will cause a huge shock in the northern border, and they must be prepared before then.

Liu Yu asked again: "How's the matter with Chunhe going?"

Zheng Rong stepped forward and replied: "Your Highness, we have already found Songnan from Chunhe via Hemu."

Chunhe is where the Yuan'an Palace is located, and it is the only city near the sea in the northern border. The sea salt drying field here is the largest salt farm in the northern border.

When Prince Yu took Xiaonian and Xiaohu Cub to Chunhe, his people discovered the source of illegal salt in the northern border, and secretly investigated, and finally discovered a bigger secret.

"From Hemu to Songnan, you can travel by water. It seems that this line of salt transportation is very mature,"

Jiang Zhi heard the words and analyzed carefully: "Hemu is not far from Yuan'an, and it is also where the Miao family is. With this as the center, the Miao family can firmly control this line of salt transportation."

He looked at Prince Yu with a serious expression: "Besides, it is near water, so it can also transport iron."

The entire Kyushu and Five Kingdoms have implemented the national policy of salt and iron being monopolized by the imperial court, and set up special management agencies.

Set up Yantie Cheng under Da Si Nong to take charge of the salt and iron related affairs in Jizhou.

Among them, the production of salt generally followed the model of civil system, government revenue, official transportation, and official sales.

That is to say, the government recruited people to dry and cook salt near the sea or in places with salt wells, and the government provided the main production tools, such as iron pots and shovels for cooking salt, to achieve the purpose of indirectly controlling its production.In theory, the salt obtained by the salt workers is completely handed over to the government for purchase, and organizes transportation and sales. The income from salt sales is often an important part of local tax revenue.

From the salt field where the salt is sun-dried, to the process of government purchases, transportation, and sales, there are many opportunities to take advantage of. Benefit.

Miao's family is in Chunhe, and there are more than one small drying grounds, which are distributed on the coast of Jinghai Sea, and the location is very hidden. In addition, the local salt workers have to support their families, and they go to different salt farms to work. Don't talk about private salt.

They were afraid that they would be implicated if things were revealed, so they dared not speak out about such things.

It took a lot of effort for Prince Yu's people to find the unnamed and unofficial private salt farm.

With production, it means that the source is guaranteed... The sea salt that the Miao family obtained from Chunhe was transported to Hemu through their way, and then took the waterway to the upstream and downstream, and finally relied on the "salt salt" of various counties and counties. Help" distribute it, and you can get huge wealth in exchange.

However, salt is just a condiment in the final analysis, no matter how essential it is, a little more private salt will not choke the throat of the entire northern border.

If it was just producing and selling private salt, it would not be enough for Liu Yu to take the initiative to intervene in the affairs of the northern border. What they did not expect was that they followed the vines and discovered that the Miao family was secretly doing even more "rebellious" things—— iron.

Like salt, it is also under the direct jurisdiction of the imperial court, and the official camp of iron is more tightly controlled.

In areas with iron ore, the local government will directly organize mining and smelting, casting and sales of utensils, which is equivalent to controlling the entire process of production and circulation.

Such strict control over the process of iron smelting is firstly to ensure the country's fiscal revenue, but the most important reason is to ensure national security and suppress the emergence of riots.

Theoretically, when clans with fiefdoms and local wealthy families need iron weapons, such as weapons and armor, and buy what they need from the government, it means that their every move is "monitored" by the court and cannot be overstepped.

But if someone smelts iron privately and sells it, those who are able to buy iron tools can avoid the control of the imperial court and establish an armed guard.

As for whether there are hundreds, thousands, or ten thousand of the guards, unless they are exposed for some reason, it will be difficult to be discovered.

On the side of the bed, how can others be allowed to sleep peacefully... Allowing these people to have hidden and terrifying power is obviously what the court does not want to see, and it is also a great hidden danger to the stability of the entire Jizhou.

So knowing that the Miao family not only sold salt, but also smelted iron secretly, Prince Yu couldn't let it go easily.

While Liu Yu sent people to step up the investigation, he took advantage of the urgent battle between Liu Kui and Liu Xuan to repeatedly target the eldest son to confuse the northern family headed by Liu Xuan and the Miao family. In fact, his people were already intensively collecting evidence , ready to catch them all.

In this matter, Liu Yu did not take charge of the matter by himself. The Emperor of Jizhou knew the whole story immediately, so he did not continue to be "ill" and sent people along the way when the Miao family sent the news to Beijing. On the surface, he went to see the eldest son Liu Kui, but in fact, he cooperated with Prince Yu and focused everyone's attention.

Liu Xuan and Miao thought everything was under their control, but they didn't know that their secret actions had gradually been exposed.

Their ambitions have reached the point where if they are not controlled, the northern border will be shaken.

It is also unexpected.

In the beginning, Liu Yu came to the northern border because the Emperor Jizhou and the Queen Mother Xu did not want him to be in Beijing, so they worked together to invite Prince Yu to Xing'an to "preside over the overall situation."

He didn't want to get involved in the affairs at all, he just wanted the heirs of the three counties of Huai'an to be settled quickly so that he could bring Xiaonian, who often missed his family and was not very happy, back to the capital.

Although it was not entirely for this reason, the idea of ​​taking his little doctor around still occupied Liu Yu's heart, so he made an excuse to go around, then went to Ning'an to pick up Xiaonian, and took them to Spring River.

In order to find a secluded beach for Xiaonian and Xiao Zizi to play openly, who knew that by accident, they found a private salt farm.

Subsequent things continued like this one after another, until it developed to this point, people can't help but sigh: everything is too coincidental!

But no matter what the process is, the turmoil in the three counties of Huai'an is imminent. Those who have already grasped the opportunity should not take it lightly, and must be extremely vigilant.

Prince Yu told his confidant: "In two days, there will be chaos in Xing'an, the Dudu's Mansion must make proper arrangements, and all the people in Wuyuan stay in the Dudu's Mansion."
