    "Calling injustice?" An Si's face sank, and he said to the guards, "Call Wei State Governor over here."

    It was already dealt with leniently yesterday, but never thought that still have the face to come here to complain?

    Where does injustice come from?

    Seeing those people just refusing to leave, Ji Yu was very upset. The shipyard still had matters to deal with, so it was impossible for him to stay in the mansion forever!

    Thinking about the drawing appointment with the master yesterday, Ji Yu resolutely went out.

    No matter, these people are left to the fourth brother to deal with, he has to go.

    But as soon as he went out, he was entangled.

    Those people cried: "Princess, you can't put my girl/brother to death just because they offended you!"

    Their cries attracted many people to stop and watch, and these melon-eaters who didn't know the truth actually pointed at Ji Yu.

    "I really didn't expect the princess to be such a person..."

    Ji Yu: "..."

    How can you beat back like this?

    An Si was furious, and scolded: "It is a serious crime for your children to break into the military base without authorization, so what does it have to do with the princess?"

    Wei State Governor rushed over and scolded: "It's obviously your fault, but it's on the princess? It's unreasonable."

    An Si's face was gloomy, and he said coldly: "Wei State Governor, while the common people are here, today the king will try the case in public."

    If you want to slander and corrupt his brother Yu, don't even think about it!

    Seeing that the prince neither chased them away nor comforted them, but tried the case, the group of family members were stunned and didn't know what to do for a moment.

    How come it doesn't work if they cry, make trouble and hang themselves in public like this?

    An Wu led the guards and immediately set up a seat outside the courtyard. An Si sat behind the case table, looked at the guilty family members and asked coldly, "Did your children ever enter a military important place yesterday?"

    The family members looked at each other in blank dismay, not daring to speak.

    At this time, someone in the crowd shouted: "Go. The little one saw it outside, and three of them went, all dressed up."

    An Wu scolded: "My lord is asking you something! Did your children go to a military important place yesterday?"

    Wei State Governor looked at the yamen servant.

    The yamen servants beat their killing sticks: "Take it seriously."

    The family members were trembling with fright, and quickly knelt down and said, "Enter...in..."

    An Si asked again: "Do you have my king's permission?"

    The family members were so frightened that they lay on the ground: "Never...never..."

    An Si snorted coldly: "If that's the case, then it's trespassing in the military. Can this king and Wei State Governor be wronged?"

    But there was a stupid one who retorted: "Why trespassing? It was obviously brought in by the chief of the barracks..."

    The people next to her hurriedly covered her mouth, but the onlookers still heard her.

    Ji Yu secretly sighed.

    What are these people trying to do?Unreasonable to make three points?

    An Si's eyes darkened, and he asked, "Which officer in the barracks brought it in?"

    The family members didn't dare to speak anymore, but the yamen servant's killing stick was about to hit the upper body, and the timid one hurriedly said:

    "It's my cousin."

    "And my third son."

    An Si asked again: "What positions do they hold in the army? Did they lead them into an ordinary barracks or a military center?"

    "No...not an ordinary barracks..."

    An Si slapped the table angrily: "It's not an ordinary barracks, it's a military important place. Since it's a military important place, what is it if the entry of idlers is not trespassing? They bring people in without authorization, but can they get the consent of the king? Can they get the consent of the military commander?"

    "Never...never..."

    "Okay!" An Si patted the gavel: "Since this is the case, the officers who led the people knowingly committed an unforgivable crime, and they were expelled from the army and exiled for three thousand miles."

    He looked at Wei State Governor again: "How to deal with those few civilians who trespassed on the important military sites?"

    Wei State Governor hurriedly said: "Go back to the prince, according to the Great Kang law, the staff will be fifty years old for three years."

    This punishment was even more severe than the previous ones, and the family members were immediately overwhelmed with thunder.

    Forget about the girl and brother, why did you implicate the man in the family?

    Dismissed from the military and exiled for three thousand miles, wouldn't this life be over?

    All the family members burst into tears immediately: "My lord, please forgive me!"

    "Isn't the concubine also a brother, why can he enter? Why is he fine?"

    An Si stood up abruptly and looked at State Governor Wei.

    Wei State Governor angrily said: "The princess is an imperial envoy appointed by the emperor. In the three eastern states of our country, there is no obstruction from the government office of the State Governor down to the military camp. The treacherous ministers can be killed at the top, and the rogues can be killed at the bottom."

    "Come here! Those who slander the concubine for no reason will be given twenty sticks."

    The onlookers looked at Ji Yu, and this time they didn't dare to criticize loudly anymore, they only dared to whisper: "Is the concubine really an imperial envoy?"

    "Yes! I heard that the salt was made by the emperor's order!"

    "It's more than that! I heard that the cannon that blasted the pirates to the ground was also made by the princess."

    "Really?"

    "Of course it is true. Do you think the princess is an ordinary brother? If he has no ability, how could he be named a super princess by the emperor..."

    No matter how quiet the discussion is, but there are many people talking, Ji Yu can still hear it.

    He turned to look at Tong Jingyuan.

    Those who spread the word among the surrounding people are Brother Jing Yuan's people, right?

    Tong Jingyuan smiled.

    If he dares to criticize his sister-in-law, he will not allow it.

    After the board was beaten, the family members were forcibly dragged away by the yamen servants, and the onlookers gradually dispersed.

    An Si held Ji Yu's hand and sighed, "Brother Yu, it's because I failed to protect you."

    Ji Yu was very upset: "The persimmons are always soft. They don't dare to do anything to you, they can only do it to me."

    he at this time

    For the first time, thanked the emperor for naming him a super prince and concubine.

    If the emperor hadn't favored him so much, I'm afraid that today's matter would not be able to stop everyone's mouth.

    Fortunately, with the severe punishment of the fourth brother this time, all kinds of attempts to covet the fourth brother Xiao Wu stopped for a long time.

    On the day of Liqiu, the first batch of salt was finally collected.

    The An family brothers specially brought the army to help. Looking at the endless salt fields, An Si's always serious face couldn't help laughing at this moment: "How much salt do you have to charge?"

    Ji Yu smiled and said, "Let's wait and see!"

    The salt workers shoveled the white raw salt onto a wheelbarrow, and the soldiers pushed it into large wooden boxes, and then transported it to the processing factory for refining.

    When the first batch of sea salt was refined, An Si took a handful and tasted it, and then laughed endlessly: "Salty, salty enough. Besides, it's neither bitter nor astringent."

    An Wu also tasted it, then gave a thumbs up and said, "It is purer and tastier than the salt we usually eat."

    Even those princes and princes who eat special salt say that sea salt is better, let alone the common people.

    People from the Salt Chamber of Commerce tasted it, and they were all full of praise: "Good salt."

    Not only is the salt good, but the yield is also high!

    After the first batch of raw salt from the salt field is harvested and refined, it will be weighed, and there will be a total of 100,000 shi.

    And this is only one-third of the entire Yantian.

    An Si was naturally overjoyed with such a high output, and quickly ordered the Huaishan Army to personally escort Haiyan to the pier, and specially sent An Wu to send Haiyan back to the capital.

    An Wu was going to the capital, so Tong Jingyuan naturally had to go with him.

    He also has to go back and have a look at the shops in the capital, not to mention that he is now the biggest salt merchant in Great Kang, why can't he go back to Beijing to thank the emperor?

    Now that the salt field is full of harvests and salt is no longer a problem, Ji Yu shifts his work focus to the shipyard.

    In addition to the ordinary warships used for training in An Siping, he also wanted to build warships with a larger tonnage.

    He has seen pirate ships before, they are small and flexible, and there are many of them, it is best to bombard them with artillery.

    Ji Yu's idea is to build a giant iron-clad battleship, and equip it with artillery.Therefore, not only a skilled navy is required, but also a gunner.

    This is all a big project.

    Fortunately, the navy has become more and more stylish under the training of An Si, and the gunners have Lao Hei and the others!

    But sea battles are not land battles. Even though Lao Hei and the others are veteran gunners, they still have to board the boat, and they have to go to the seaside with the An family brothers to practice on the boat.

    On the first day of training at sea, except for the soldiers who grew up by the sea, everyone else, including An Si and Lao Hei, vomited upside down.

    Ji Yu got the news and hurried back to the mansion, looked at the person lying on the bed and asked quickly: "Fourth brother, what's the matter with you?"

    The heroic man like An Si also turned blue at this time: "I thought it was similar to a passenger ship in the canal. But it's not like that at all. The storm on the sea..."

    Before he finished speaking, he vomited again holding the spittoon.After vomiting, he covered his head and said, "I still feel like I'm on the boat, it's shaking a lot."

    Ji Yu comforted: "Don't worry, fourth brother, these are small boats that naturally shake a lot. When I build a big ship, they won't be shaking like this."

    An Si shook his head and said: "Isn't the boat of the pirates smaller? Don't they seem to be safe on the shore? If you want to defeat them and break down their old nest, you have to practice with a small boat and get used to it before boarding a big boat."

    Ji Yu couldn't help but reminded: "Fourth brother, then you have to be mentally prepared, this time the storm is not big enough, if you encounter a storm, it will be fatal!"

    But he underestimated An Si, he was a real man.No matter how uncomfortable it was, he carried it over. When An Wutong Jingyuan came back from the capital, he could already walk on the sea boat as if he was walking on flat ground.

    An Wu had never been out at sea, so he naturally didn't know how difficult it was, so he didn't take this matter to heart, and happily talked to them about returning to the capital this time.

    "Sister-in-law, the sea salt you made is really good! Not to mention those salt merchants, the boat just arrived at the pier, and the sea salt was taken away by Brother Jingyuan before he disembarked. Even the emperor was full of praise after tasting it.”

    "Sister-in-law, you solved the salt shortage, the emperor was very happy, and gave you a lot of things!"

    Ji Yu was not interested in rewards, so he nodded lightly: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

    These utensils given by the emperor can neither be pawned nor sold for silver, but can only be offered. What is the use?

    What he needs now is silver, white silver.

    An Wu laughed again: "Sister-in-law Fulang, the emperor even rewarded you with a Shangfang sword!"

    Then Ji Yu's eyes lit up: "Really?"

    An Wu got up and looked behind him.

    A servant came in with a long object in his hands, and said in a shrill voice: "Prince Rui accepts the order."

    Everyone quickly knelt down.

    The servant said again: "Princess Rui, the Ji family is intelligent, benevolent and filial. She makes salt and boats to benefit the Great Kang and the common people. She bestows a sword on Shangfang. Seeing this sword is like seeing me. With this sword, Princess Rui can kill the emperor's relatives and relatives.You can get rid of the treacherous villain..."
