Mingruo ordered two bowls of wonton noodles and a few side dishes, and then asked Aqiu and his friends to go down and use some hot food: "Pack up some dry food to make it easier to take them on the way."

"I know." Aqiu took the order and left.

The guy served four plates of side dishes first and then served the steaming wonton noodles. Mingruo picked up the chopsticks and heard a hustle and bustle on the street.

Mingruo opened the window sash and looked at the sound. He saw a group of people gathered at the entrance of the Cao Gang, clamoring, unable to hear what they were saying.

"Is this... a gang fight?" Mingruo couldn't understand what he was going to do, as if his enemy had come to cause trouble.

"I guess another merchant ship was robbed by the water bandits, and the miser came to ask for an explanation." The young man whispered, "Since the canal was uneasy, a group of water bandits who claimed to be the "White Tiger Gang" came out, specializing in robbing the fleet of wealthy businessmen."

"If you encounter robbers, you should report to the official. What's the use of coming to the Cao Gang?" The people gathered in front of the hall, and there were several groups of people wearing clothes.

"Mrs. I don't know that merchant ships that often travel in the canal have to provide the Caogang with annual supply every year to ensure the safety of the fleet. If something happens, I will naturally come to the Caogang to ask for an explanation." The guy quickly explained.

"So that's it." Ming Ruo murmured in a low voice, "This White Tiger Gang should be very annoying..."

"If you want to say that this White Tiger Gang is a thief, he never robs passenger ships and kills people's lives..." The young man suddenly fell silent - he spoke to the bandits, so he would not be regarded as an accomplice.

A smile flashed in Mingruo's eyes: "Go down, I'll call you if you have something to do."

"Yes." The guy ran away quickly.

Mingruo supported his cheek with his hands and looked out the window. Although the door was slapped with a clanging sound, he kept shutting his door: "Why are merchants used to paying to the Cao Gang for the previous year?"

Si Haochen picked up the chopsticks and stuffed them into Mingruo's hand: "Let's have a meal, the noodles will be lumped in a while."

"Hmm?" Mingruo blinked his big black eyes, "There is an ulterior motive between you!"

"Cough cough." Si Haochen coughed lightly, "When the canal was dug out earlier, the Cao Gang also participated. Later, the government office delegated some powers to let the Cao Gang assist in the canal affairs.

In recent years, manpower and material resources have been spent on the news of Beichi and Xikang, and the fiefdom has been slightly relaxed. The Cao Gang and the Zhao family colluded with each other and their power has grown increasingly. Even the government offices along the canal have to avoid their edge..."

"This is..." Ming Ruo suddenly realized, "I only focused on expanding the territory in front, but as a result, a fire broke out in the backyard..."

Si Haochen pinched Mingruo's nose and shook it: "Is it so happy to see the joke of being a husband?"

"Cough." Ming Ruo cleared his throat, "It's rare to see His Majesty Yun Emperor lose his 'hind' hooves... Hahaha..."

His Majesty Yun, who is 'Fearing', has no choice but to treat the queen: "Do you eat your noodles well, don't laugh anymore!"

"I'm full." Mingruo supported the window lattice with his hands and looked at the street scene. He actually saw Bai Shen coming with his people.

"I'll be full if I eat so little?" Si Haochen frowned and looked at Ming Ruo worriedly.

"The carriage was dizzy and had no appetite." Ming Ruo looked at Bai Shen with interest and took the lead in causing trouble.

"Then don't rush to travel today, and repair it in Xuancheng for a day." Si Haochen was not in a hurry to return to Beijing.

"That won't work. I'll go back and add makeup to Yu Ning." Mingruo is very interested in traditional weddings.

"Just just add makeup, just send someone to send something, don't go there in person..."

"..." Well, my husband's only remaining emotional intelligence was used on himself. Mingruo smiled with gratitude. Compared with the "central air conditioner", the gentleness of the "mobile iceberg" is more touching.

Bai Shen, who was "making trouble" in front of the Cao Gang Gang, led his people to open the door and said that he wanted to move something back, which would more or less offset some of the losses.

Although the others came to ask for an explanation before, they did not dare to really make a fuss with the Cao Gang. They only stayed in the "verbal criticism" stage and did not dare to take any "actions".

Stanley's move to break into the door instantly formed a "hole effect". Others were afraid that they would be too late, and all the things were stolen by others, and everyone rushed in...

The Cao Gang has never been so depressed. The hall was demolished and he could not sit still and wait for death. He had to pick up his weapons and start fighting.

However, Bai Shen came to "fight" today, and the people he brought were dressed in a guy, but he was a well-trained secret guard. The Cao Gang's guards were beaten so hard that they dared not show their heads. He watched the hall inside and outside looted, and even the beams were removed and moved away. The roof was shaking, looking like it was about to collapse.

Mingruo's mouth opened into an O-shaped shape, and these people's hands-on ability is too strong. The quick movement of moving things is much better than that of moving companies.

Before everyone left, Bai Shen left in the chaos and was reporting on the progress in front of Si Haochen.

"Before transporting food and grass to the northwest, be sure to solve the problem." Si Haochen buckled the table.

"Yes." Bai Shen thought that he would send more people to other halls tomorrow to "maintain justice."

"Mr. Bai's fleet also needs to provide to the Cao Gang for the next year?" It is also considered a talent to be able to cut out silver from Bai Shen's hands.

"This...of course it's not necessary..." Bai Shen answered very proudly.

"..." The answer is obvious if it is not a surprise, but Stanley's natural attitude seems to be a little beaten up.

"Ahem." Bai Shen saw the Empress's expression and scratched his nose. "We didn't take the Cao Gang's things just now. It was purely 'drawing a sword to help when we saw injustice on the road'."

Ming Ruo clasped his fists at Bai Shen: "Master Bai is righteous!"

"The Empress praised it!" Bai Shen quickly returned the salute.

Si Haochen shook his head speechlessly: "Do you continue on the way or leave after the afternoon?"

"Let's go now, the show is over." Ming Ruo asked Aqiu to set off.

Aqiu wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Master, I am here."

Mingruo fanned Aqiu's forehead with a small fan: "Is this moving bricks?"

"It's not that I'm moving bricks, that Leng Yu is really pretentious. She thinks the food is greasy, and the tea is bland. She's been whispering for a long time before she can tell something useful." A Qiu was so angry that she was very angry, "Oh, by the way, she also said that the old palace master of Ziwei Palace was hidden among the four countries."

Si Haochen narrowed his eyes slightly. Ziwei Palace was in Zhongzhou, so he habitually thought that Huangfu Ye was entrenched there. He sent many people to investigate Zhongzhou, but no useful clues were found.

It turned out that, from the beginning, I found the wrong direction.

"So, she doesn't talk about the identity and hiding place of the old palace master..." Ming Ruo used a statement.

"That's right." Aqiu nodded, "She said she would wait until the poison on her body was completely cured before she could say it."
