Chapter 125 You are responsible for taking care of her
Wang Xinyao nodded slightly, looked at Zhao Haoxuan and Luo Qing, and said, "This girl is indeed related to you by blood, and her relationship with Brother Zhao is even closer. According to the current test results, she is very likely Brother Zhao's biological sister. Of course, the possibility of her being his aunt cannot be completely ruled out."
At this moment, Zhao Haoxuan fell into deep thought. After a moment, he spoke, "From what I know, this girl looks to be no more than twenty-two years old. Twenty-two years ago, my royal grandfather abdicated the throne to my father, and then he left the palace and traveled around. Unfortunately, his good fortune didn't last long. Not long after, we received the sad news of his passing. So, the chances of her being my aunt are extremely slim."
He then continued to recall, "After my father ascended the throne, he appointed my mother as the current empress. Later, my mother gave birth to three children, and I was fortunate enough to be the eldest. Before this, I had never heard that my father had other children."
After hearing this, Wang Xinyao pondered for a moment and said, "If she isn't the Empress's daughter, then you two are very likely half-siblings. Furthermore, this test result is absolutely accurate!"
"Well, of course I believe you. Since it is difficult for us to figure out the ins and outs of this matter in a short period of time, we might as well put it aside for now. The most urgent thing at the moment is to quickly find a comprehensive and appropriate solution." At this point, Zhao Haoxuan frowned slightly and sighed softly.
Wang Xinyao nodded and said, "Due to her special status, we can't destroy her cultivation for the time being. We can only suppress her cultivation every two days. We also need to find a suitable place to house her and assign people to keep a close watch on her in case she suddenly attacks!"
Zhao Haoxuan also agreed with this view. He then turned to Zhou Yunxi beside him and ordered, "General Zhou, until we find a good way to completely cure her, you will be responsible for taking care of her."
Zhou Yunxi immediately clasped his fists and replied, "Yes, I obey your command!"
Zhao Haoxuan thought for a moment and added, "You must take good care of her, but you must also be extremely vigilant and never allow her to take advantage of any opportunity to harm other innocent people! To prevent any unexpected situations, you can keep her within your sight at night and watch over her personally. As the saying goes, 'A true man does not dwell on trivial matters.' After all, right now, no one except you and me can compete with her!"
"Your Highness, please rest assured. I will definitely fulfill my mission!" Zhou Yunxi looked at Zhao Haoxuan with a serious expression and firm eyes. Then he clasped his hands together and saluted solemnly.
After a night of tossing and turning, daybreak arrived. At this time, Zhao Haoxuan and Wang Xinyao arrived at the salt field together.
This time, Zhao Haoxuan decided to meet his two uncles Yang Chengde and Yang Chenhui in person. They had been worried for so long, and now that the traitor had been eliminated, it was time to meet them.
Since the epidemic was effectively controlled and returned to normal, the salt field has resumed orderly operation.
When Zhou Shen saw Wang Xinyao and Zhao Haoxuan walking towards him from afar, he stopped what he was busy doing without hesitation and walked quickly towards them.
When the two approached, Zhou Shen bowed slightly, respectfully led them into a room, and closed the door.
As soon as he entered the room, Zhou Shen turned around, bowed deeply to Zhao Haoxuan and Wang Xinyao, and said, "I greet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and my benefactor!"
Seeing this, Zhao Haoxuan hurried forward, held Zhou Shen's arms, and said with a smile: "Get up, Mr. Zhou, you have worked hard!" His words were full of gratitude.
Zhao Haoxuan knew that without Zhou Shen's help, he would never have made it to Nanhu County alive, nor would he have had the chance to meet Wang Xinyao. Nor would he have achieved what he has today.
"Hello, Brother Zhou!" Wang Xinyao also greeted with a smile.
Zhou Shen stood up and bowed respectfully to Zhao Haoxuan who was sitting at the first seat, then began to report the recent situation of the salt field in an orderly manner.
"Your Highness, although the salt field has resumed work smoothly and its output is gradually recovering, we have lost a lot of manpower due to the previous epidemic." As Zhou Shen spoke, he took out a thick account book from his arms and handed it to Zhao Haoxuan with both hands.
Zhao Haoxuan reached out to take the account and then began to read it carefully.
After a moment, he slowly put down the account and said in a deep voice, "We can't go on like this. It seems we need to quickly recruit some reliable workers."
Wang Xinyao, who had been sitting nearby and listening quietly, suddenly brightened up when she heard this. She said, "Brother Zhao, we can consider recruiting people from the nearby villages that were hit by the disaster. After experiencing this disaster, the people there must be eager to find a job to support their families. Also, as before, we can accept even beggars."
Zhao Haoxuan's eyes flashed with admiration when he heard this. He said, "Haha, Xinyao, your idea is really brilliant. This way, we can solve the problem of recruiting workers for our salt field, help the villagers affected by the disaster, and eliminate the beggars in the surrounding area. It can be said to kill three birds with one stone."
Just as several people in the house were discussing something heatedly, suddenly, there was a loud noise outside the house.
Zhou Shen's face showed anxiety. He quickly walked to the door, gently opened a crack and looked out.
After a while, he turned around and whispered, "Your Highness, it's the two Lords Yang who have arrived. They're here to buy our salt. Perhaps because of the plague that's been going on for quite some time, many shops have already run out of stock."
The corners of Zhao Haoxuan's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile. He also lowered his voice and responded, "I came here precisely to meet with them. I didn't expect them to show up on their own initiative. This way, we can save a lot of trouble."
Zhou Shen nodded slightly, then walked out of the room and headed towards the weighing area.
He walked straight to where Yang Chende and his group were, and bowed respectfully: "Greetings to the two Lords Yang and all the Lords!"
Hearing Zhou Shen's words, Yang Chende, Yang Chenhui and others quickly responded, "Manager Zhou, you're too polite!"
Yang Chende and Yang Chenhui were also very polite to Zhou Shen. In their eyes, people as capable as Zhou Shen were rare talents, and in their opinion, Zhou Shen's abilities were not inferior to their own.
"Lord Yang, although the plague is over now, I still need your guidance on the details of many tasks at the salt field. Could you please come to my place so we can discuss it together?" Zhou Shen bowed again and said
