"She asked you about me?"

Li Yingxin struggled for a long time and decided to tell Li Shunshui what happened on the carriage alone.

Of course, Xingwang and the others had already been sent away.

"Well, I thought about it, but I still want to tell Brother Shui. Brother Shui, I see, that Jin Yuhou treats you... unusually. He even asked you if you are married and what your preferences are."

The surface of the Lishun water was calm, but ripples were already rising in my heart.

"She...asked me what I like?"

"Yes, I asked you very carefully about what you like, what books you like to read, and what you like to do in your free time. Brother Shui, I see, you and Jin Yuhou are... very familiar?" This kind of thing is really unbearable.

I can't help but want to gossip.

"What did you say to her?"

Li Shunshui knew that this topic should be dropped, but he couldn't help but ask.

Li Yingxin's eyes lit up slightly when she saw this. She had known Li Shunshui's temperament for more than three years. He was usually indifferent to everything, as if nothing could interest him, but now he didn't.

Same.

"I didn't say anything. Brother Shui doesn't seem to have anything special to like, but...I told Marquis Jin Yu that Brother Shui is not married yet."

After saying that, he smiled ambiguously.

Originally, she had considered it, but her grandfather had given up on her long ago, and she would not go down a dead end. It would be better to maintain the relationship as it is now. Her grandfather was optimistic about him, and now he is also the top scorer in high school, so there will be something in the future.

If you have a bright future, you might be able to rely on this brother in the future.

There are only benefits to getting closer now.

Li Shunshui suddenly felt awkward, but he quickly adjusted, "Jin Yuhou is not an ordinary woman. She is asking these questions casually. It's getting late, and Sister Ying has been busy all day. Let's go and rest."

"Well, Brother Shui is resting now. He has to attend the palace banquet tomorrow."

Li Yingxin saw that the time was indeed late and got up.

After watching the other party leave, Li Shunshui tidied up and lay down. He was the only one left in the room, with his head resting on his arms. He was obviously tired, but he couldn't fall asleep.

Random thoughts kept running through my mind and I couldn't stop.

Finally, I simply got up, walked to the bedside in the dark, and opened the window, trying to calm down a little.

But my thoughts became clearer and clearer.

Today, there were many people visiting to congratulate her, and she had been following the old man to deal with it. She knew clearly that she would not come, but for some reason she felt a bit of expectation in her heart, because she had said that she would give him gifts when he reaches high school...

He felt that she was a person who kept her word, so she had something to look forward to today.

But even he himself found this expectation a bit baffling.

He and her are just two or three sides in fate, aren't they?

She couldn't even be called a friend. Besides, given her status, it was already polite to have someone send her a congratulatory gift, so how could she come to the door in person?

He didn't know why he had such expectations.

The cool night breeze disturbed some people's hearts.

The Spring Examination was successfully concluded, and tomorrow was the Palace Banquet. Prince Tian, ​​who was responsible for all matters concerning the Spring Examination, should have breathed a sigh of relief and had a peaceful sleep, but at this moment, in the dead of night, he had no sleep.

He said he didn't believe what the Prince and Princess said, but he couldn't help but think about it in his heart.

God really played a big joke on him.

"Your Majesty, haven't you slept yet?"

Outside the door, the young man who had just received the news looked at the light in the room and asked Tuan'er who was waiting at the door.

Tuan'er pursed his lips and shook his head, "Your Majesty seems to have something on his mind these days." Ever since that night when he went to Jin Yuhou's house after drinking, something has not been right.

After serving him for so many years, no matter how well Jin Juetian conceals himself, it can still be seen.

The young man frowned slightly.

"What's wrong? Is there anything else you can do so late?"

"Well, I just received the news about what the prince asked me to investigate." But it was already late at night, and I was thinking about whether to go in and tell the prince.

"Okay, let's go in. What are you doing here? Anyway, the prince doesn't seem to want to sleep for a while. He was still reading when he went in to serve tea."

What the prince asked Qing Sui to check must be very important matters. Anyway, the prince was not asleep.

Qingsui looked at the light coming from the room and nodded before knocking on the door.

"come in."

Hearing Qingsui's voice, Jin Juetian rubbed his brows, put down his book, and leaned on the chair to relax.

This book has been here for half an hour, and one page has not been touched.

"It's so late, what's the matter?"

Jin Juetian closed his eyes and asked.

"Your Majesty, we have some clues about the water bandits in Jeju and Pengqi."

Jin Juetian became energetic immediately, and his eyes suddenly brightened.

"explain."

"The news came back that there are indeed some water thieves making trouble in these two places, but the problem is not that big."

It's not that it's to the point of suppressing the bandits. Jin Yuhou may have made a fuss out of a molehill. The world is so big, how can there be no such thing.

"Speak more clearly."

The young man then repeated the news he had just received.

"...There are indeed water thieves, but they haven't caused much trouble."

"How big a deal is it? Three years ago, the imperial court began to rectify water transportation. These two places are the most important water passages. Do you know how many ships there are? Those water thieves are trying to save the Baili family's face and not cause trouble. That's

Because the Baili family is an imperial merchant, and you also said that many merchant ships have to borrow the passage and need the Baili family's help in speaking out. Why do those water thieves listen to the Baili family? Why can the Baili family deal with the water thieves? It's nothing more than an exchange of interests.

Those merchant ships who ask for help from the Baili family don’t need to take care of the Baili family? The Baili family helps them selflessly? If this continues, do you know the consequences? "

Qingsui was speechless by Jin Juetian's words. He really didn't think too much about it, because... "Your Majesty, the people below said that those merchant ships didn't have much money, and some merchant ships didn't have any money.

As we passed by, those water thieves were just making a fuss and didn't really make much noise."

"How much is too much? According to you, those water thieves are still kind?"

Jin Juetian slapped him in the face, and the young man didn't dare to say anything anymore.

"She has pointed it out. I'm afraid this matter is not that simple. In recent years, the Baili family has become more and more courageous. It seems that the water thieves are giving the Baili family face. In fact, I am afraid that they have already been with the water thieves.

What agreement has been reached? The Baili family is using the hands of these water thieves to consolidate its dominance in water transportation. The hearts are getting bigger and bigger! Who is in charge of water transportation and water business in the Baili family? "

"It seems... Baili Yongkang." As soon as the name came out of his mouth, Qing Sui realized that something was wrong.

"It's this Baili Yongkang again!"

Jin Juetian frowned and lowered his head, his thoughts racing rapidly.

"Qingsui, please go check on the water transportation. I think the person who supervised this matter in the past was Suo Tu?"

"Yes!" The young man still remembers some of these things.

"Tomorrow, give me the names of all officials involved in water transportation."

"yes."

Who kind of person Jin Juetian is can be revealed at a glance, and he can think of three things after just one sentence.

That's why Chuxue came to find him. It's not impossible to achieve the goal by taking a roundabout way, but it's just a lot more troublesome and a waste of time.

"Your Majesty, it's getting late. Can you rest earlier? We have an early morning court meeting tomorrow."

"I know, you guys should go and have a rest."

She will go to the palace banquet tomorrow.

At this moment, Jin Juetian wanted to see him but didn't dare to see him.
Chapter completed!
