Chapter 85 Don’t you want to see him?
Hui Chengyuan looked at her drooping eyes and pink earlobes, then sat down with a smile.
Seeing the prince smile, Ling Yang, who was setting up breakfast, widened his eyes.
It had been a long time since he saw the Crown Prince smile.
He also noticed that His Highness treated this girl differently, so he collected the lunch box, stepped back to Ling Feng, poked him with his hand, and whispered, "You hid it so well that you didn't even say anything."
Ling Feng glanced at him, lowered his eyes and said nothing.
"Your Highness must have been interested in this girl for a long time. Tell me, how long has it been? Who is this girl?"
Ling Yang didn't expect that after just two or three months of not being with His Highness, a beautiful girl would appear by His Highness' side.
"Do you need me to explain something to you?" Hui Chengyuan looked up at him and said.
Ling Yang immediately stood up and shook his head, saying, "No need, Your Highness. I know I was wrong and I will never do it again."
He forgot that His Highness had great internal strength, and no matter how quiet his voice was, His Highness could still hear it from such a close distance.
Yuanman glanced at them while eating wontons, then lowered his eyes.
After breakfast, Yuanman took Yuaner and the others up the mountain.
Hui Chengyuan first wrote down the matter of the granary according to his own ideas, and then elaborated and made assumptions.
After writing down his thoughts, he followed Yuan Yi to meet the village chief and Tong Liyang.
Yuan Yi had naturally reviewed everything that could be reviewed, so it was obviously useless to review it again.
However, we did find out some things from the two women.
One was the former madam of the brothel, and the other was the former owner of a rouge shop, but they knew very little about it.
The three children knew very little and asked nothing.
He wanted to save the village chief's child before because he was afraid, and also because the village chief threatened him with his eyes when he was taken away, so he went to save him.
As a child, naturally no one would care too much about him.
Hui Chengyuan sent Ling Yang and Ling Yun, one to investigate in Xizhou and the other to investigate in Wangdong City.
Originally, Ling Yang wanted to go to Wangdong City to investigate, because it was closer to His Highness and he could read more gossip about His Highness and the girl.
However, His Highness specifically asked him to go to Xizhou.
"Before you go to Xizhou, send a message to Gu Cheng and ask him to set out from Mingzhou City and ask him to cooperate with your investigation."
"Yes, Your Highness." Although Ling Yang loves gossip, he is never careless when it comes to serious matters.
"Your Highness, there is a letter from General Gu." Ling Feng handed a small note to Hui Chengyuan.
Hui Chengyuan unfolded it and saw the two words on it, and threw it away immediately.
"What is the relationship between Wangdongcheng County Magistrate Luo Zikun and the Luo family?"
Ling Feng glanced at the words on the note and said, "Luo Zikun seems to be a member of the Luo family's side branch."
Hui Chengyuan continued to ask: "Is it someone from the Luo family in Mingzhou City?"
Ling Feng shook his head, "No, he is considered a branch of the Luo family in Mingzhou City. Although he likes to beat up the sons of the Luo family in Kyoto, he has no connection with the Luo family in Kyoto."
"Although we are considered to be of the same clan, we are already beyond the five generations of kinship and are no longer among the nine clans."
Hui Chengyuan looked at the list on the table and wondered who was behind it to list these people so accurately.
He also perfectly avoided Prince Duan's people, which led to Prince Duan being demoted, and then he received the letter.
He naturally knew that the people here were not Prince Duan's men, because Prince Duan had already called out all his men in order to save his life.
He also checked them one by one and made no mistakes.
It seems that there is something even more hidden within this clan.
As Hui Chengyuan thought about it, his eyes involuntarily turned to the mountain behind him.
After looking for a while, he stood up, walked out of the yard, and headed straight towards the mountain.
At this time, Yuan Man was playing with the strange white bear, while the others were picking peppercorns.
What Hui Chengyuan saw when he came up was that the white bear dug up a bamboo shoot and she hid one.
"Ari, bamboo shoots don't taste good at this time."
Yuan Man saw him coming and smiled and said, "I know, I was just playing with it."
"Are you done so soon?"
Hui Chengyuan: “…”
Don't want to see him?
Yuan Manshi only remembered after he went up the mountain that he had not given him any evidence, so he said, "Here is the evidence that Luo Zikun colluded with the prefect of Lingchuan City to sell official positions. I'll give it to you when we get down the mountain."
Hui Chengyuan: “…”
He now had some free time, waiting for the results of their investigation to come out, and she found another job for him.
"No hurry, they can't run away."
"Roar, roar..." The strange white bear retrieved all the bamboo shoots and put them back to Yuan Man, then roared at Hui Chengyuan twice.
Yuan Man raised his hand and patted its head, saying, "Xiao Bai, he is one of us, recognize him, and don't call him that next time you see him."
The strange white bear glanced at Hui Chengyuan, turned its head and lay down on its butt towards him.
Hui Chengyuan looked at Yuan Man in surprise and asked, "Have you tamed it?"
Yuan Man rolled his eyes at him and said, "How can I tame a wild beast?"
"This polar bear is very smart. As long as you don't have any bad thoughts towards it, it won't attack you."
Although Hui Chengyuan nodded, he knew that there was not much difference between polar bears and big brown bears. They were carnivorous and would attack humans.
But she didn't want to say more, so he naturally didn't ask any more questions.
Yuan Man stroked the strange white bear and saw that he didn't say anything, so he asked, "By the way, do you want to go see the purple quartz mine?"
Hui Chengyuan nodded, "Let's go and take a look." Since she had brought it up, he naturally had to go with her.
Yuan Man patted the white bear lightly, stood up and took him to where the purple quartz mine was.
"The hole was only dug a short distance before amethyst appeared. I think the amethyst mine must be quite large."
"Do you have any ideas about Amethyst?"
Hui Chengyuan thought for a moment and said, "If this thing is used well, it is a good medicine, but if it is used poorly, it is a poison."
“So, I don’t want to over-mine, I want to buy the mountain.”
Yuan Man looked at him and said, "This Lianyun Mountain is mine now."
Hui Chengyuan also looked at her, "Did you buy Lianyun Mountain after discovering the purple quartz mine?"
After asking, I felt that something was wrong. If this mountain was so easy to buy, those people could have bought the mountain and then slowly mined it. In this way, even if someone discovered it, there would be nothing.
But those people didn't buy it, which means that the mountain has already had an owner.
Yuan Man shook his head, "Before that, I didn't know about the purple quartz mine until I came here."
"Since you don't want to mine the amethyst mine, arrange to fill up the cave tomorrow to prevent anyone from accidentally discovering it when they go up the mountain."
"Okay, I'll let Lingkong bring people to fill it." Hui Chengyuan had just finished speaking when he arrived in front of the cave.
"Let's go in and take a look." Yuanman walked in first.
Hui Chengyuan smiled and followed her into the cave.
When Hui Chengyuan saw the purple quartz exposed on the wall, he knew that this mine was not small, and was even bigger than what she said.
"Ari, this mine is huge. It's bigger than I imagined."
"There are such dense purple quartz just outside the mountain. There will be more if we dig deeper."
"Don't you want to avoid excessive mining? If there is more, it will have to be sealed off." Yuan Man said and walked out.
