Until this time, Li Wenchong confessed that he would find out about lake salt at the beginning, which was also reminded by the old lady.

At that time, Old Lady Yao really didn't know that people in this world had discovered "hu salt". She just made some "speculations" based on the descriptions in those strange books.

Then when Li Wenchong went to verify, he found that a noble family secretly used lake salt but did not inform the court?!

This is not a trivial matter. Without saying a word, he wrote a letter to Emperor Mingguang.

"At that time, I had some speculation in my mind. Since the 'lake salt' that the old lady speculated was true, what about the well salt and sea salt?"

"But everything was still under investigation at that time, and I was afraid that the emperor would be disappointed, so I didn't dare to mention it. Until now, I have confirmed with my own eyes that the sea water can indeed discharge salt, so I rushed over and told you that I want you to be happy."

"Brother, think about it, if salt making becomes so easy, what would the salt merchants in the world view the Yao family? What would those who benefited from the salt merchants think of the Yao family?"

Li Wenchong said with a sincere look on his face, "That's why I said, if the old lady hadn't trusted me and the emperor's brother, would you think she would tell me about this?"

Emperor Mingguang didn't expect that he asked him what reward he wanted, and Li Wenchong said so much, and he was a little helpless.

He did not doubt the Yao family.

The Yao family's background was that when Li Wenchong revealed that he was going to marry Lao Madam Yao, Emperor Mingguang had already sent someone to find out.

The Yao family may have secrets, but they do not involve imperial power.

"Okay, since you don't want to give it to the Yao family, I'm just giving it to the Yao family. Is that kind of person?" Turning back, Emperor Mingguang praised the Yao family, "The Yao family is really worthy of fighting with the late emperor. They are loyal and dedicated, and have no intention of being disobedient. If there are more ministers like this, I can be more relaxed."

"Brother, haven't you asked what reward the Yao family wants yet?" Li Wenchong said disgustingly.

Emperor Mingguang was helpless: "You didn't even ask the old lady, how do you know what rewards they want?"

"Isn't this obvious?" Li Wenchong said, "Everyone in the capital knows that Yao Anxin, the eldest daughter of the Yao family, was beaten by your son. He is a dignified daughter, and no one is provoking anyone, and a prince runs to whip them in front of so many people. They have become jokes in the capital. I don't know if there is any face to see people in the future... The emperor's brother will not know that Mrs. Yao will pick up Yao Anxin into Beijing at this time just to tell her to kiss her? Now, if she doesn't make a kiss, she will lose her face."

"Do you want me to point her a good family? This is easy, I..."

Before Emperor Mingguang finished speaking, Li Wenchong quickly interrupted: "Hey, brother, let it go, don't mess with each other. Whether they want to marry or not, it's better for them to decide who they want to marry. If you really want to reward the Yao family, you can reward Yao Anxin, a princess."

"Princess?"

"Yes, since Yao Anxin has suffered such a great insult in the royal family, so many people pointed and pointed at her behind her. When she became a princess, I think anyone else dared to underestimate her."

"It's not difficult...but, don't point me to her? In view of the fact that Old Lady Yao has made such a great contribution, I will definitely point me to Yao Anxin as a good family. If anyone dares to let her suffer, I will ask that family to come and see her." Emperor Mingguang wanted to persuade again, "Are this girl, who doesn't want to marry a good family? Otherwise, I will reward you later, please write a letter to ask..."

"No, I know the old lady. Instead of letting her baby granddaughter get happiness by marrying a good man, I believe she is more willing to stand up by her granddaughter." Li Wenchong said, "If a princess can't stand up her baby granddaughter, I think no matter who she wants to marry, she will not be happy."

Emperor Mingguang stared at Li Wenchong in surprise and looked for a while: "What you said... Why do I feel a little wrong with it? Since ancient times, women have regarded their husbands as the most. After you say this... women can survive without men, so why do they need men?"

Li Wenchong blinked: "It was, otherwise, why did you think the old lady refused me? He was free and comfortable, and his life was not too comfortable. Why did he agree to my brother's marriage?"

Emperor Mingguang: "..."

Then, in the end, did you agree?

However, the old lady’s children don’t know about this, so...

Emperor Mingguang said: "When are you going to make this public to her children? It's not a solution to keep dragging on it like this, right? The old lady is not young anymore, and you are not young anymore..."

Don’t stop after just nodding and you’ll be resting when you enter the door. Wouldn’t Li Wenchong marry him for nothing?

Emperor Mingguang was also worried that Li Wenchong was deliberately hanging there, otherwise he would not agree, but he was unwilling to make it clear to his children and kept dragging him.

"It's almost done. I've already swayed the city on the Jinling realm with the old lady. Is anyone interested in it? But the line we should buried is also buried, just waiting for everyone to react. This kind of thing must give everyone some time to adapt to it."

Emperor Mingguang was speechless and asked him to do it himself.

Anyway, it is Li Wenchong’s own business to marry or not. Li Wenchong will also suffer any crimes. Apart from that imperial edict, he should not let him interfere.

Li Wenchong rolled his eyes: "Don't worry, I won't bother you."

Anyway, with the imperial edict of Emperor Mingguang, it already represents the attitude of Emperor Mingguang.

Whether or not there is anything else is important.

Li Wenchong was a pawn and came back to report a letter to Emperor Mingguang. The subsequent matter was handed over to Emperor Mingguang, and he ran back to his mansion to "rest" openly.

He did not come back alone, and there was a convoy behind him. The convoy quietly drove into the Royal Manor in the name of the Royal Manor.

At the end of the second hour, the royal feast officially began.

Emperor Mingguang invited the prince's clan to have a reunion dinner together. Because Li Wenchong came back a little suddenly, the Ministry of Internal Affairs was not prepared, so he had to order a table to add a table and move the order of the prince's clans backwards.

No one dares to complain about this outstanding job. They just hope that there will be no difference, otherwise it will be a little heavier, and the heads may fall to the ground.

The royal reunion dinner was very grand, and it could be placed from the main hall to the eaves outside the palace. Because there were too many clans attending the banquet, they would sit on both sides of the long table in advance according to the pre-arranged rank order. This is why Li Wenchong had to add a table to him after he returned to the capital.

Because according to Li Wenchong's favor, he must be sitting closest to Emperor Mingguang.

This is true. Li Wenchong hurried back to the house just to clean up and attend the afternoon banquet.

Yes, yes, it's afternoon, not evening.

It was said it was supper, but it actually started around 1:30 pm, so there was no need to worry about them getting hungry or something. That is to say, let’s continue eating when I got home.

The focus of a reunion dinner is not "eating", but whether you have received the invitation and where you sit. If you have not received the invitation, it means... it is out of favor.

In the royal family, "falling out of favor" is a terrible thing.
