"who?"
Yang Zhao did not hesitate.
Yun Xiaozi stared into her eyes and slowly uttered two words: "Xu Xuan."
Xu Xuan?
Yang Zhao raised his eyebrows slightly: "The Sixth Young Master of the Xu Family?"
"yes."
A flash of anger flashed in Yun Xiaozi's eyes, but he immediately regained his composure. He looked at Yang Zhao and said seriously, "As long as you can give him to me, I don't need your support to become the second Duke Yang of Qi. You just need to give me the method of making sea salt, and my life will be yours from now on. I will also find the person you are looking for for you."
Yang Zhao was silent for a few seconds before he raised the corner of his lips and said, "I agree to your condition."
After Yun Xiaozi was taken away.
"Nannan, are you planning to attack the Xu family now?" Yang Tiejiang asked only after there was no one else in the house.
Yang Zhao picked up the wooden cannon on the table and stroked the two traditional Chinese characters engraved on the handle with his fingers.
"Dad, you just saw it. This wooden warehouse wasn't destroyed, but someone deliberately dismantled it. No one except my eldest brother could have done that. He must still be alive. He must be trying to spread the news that he's still alive by dispersing the parts of the wooden warehouse. Someone has imprisoned him."
The wooden cannon is the life-saving weapon left to them by their mother.
Apart from the father and his son, no one knew about it, let alone dismantled it intact. The bullets in the shells were gone, which meant that his eldest brother had used up the bullets and still could not escape. In the end, he could only dismantle the wooden warehouse to pass on the message to the outside world.
Yang Zhao felt very bad.
In her previous life, she never received any news of her elder brother's survival until her death, which meant that her elder brother had never returned from Qi State. In this life, dealing with the Shen family triggered a series of butterfly effects, allowing Xiao Ba to survive and reach the capital, and now she has obtained her elder brother's wooden warehouse from Yun Xiaozi.
She felt that if she didn't hurry up, her brother might not be able to wait for their rescue...
"Daddy, we have to hurry."
Yang Tiejiang's eyes flashed with anger, "Okay, then let's not wait, let's go ahead and get rid of as many as we can."

Qi State.
In a secret cell.
Ding Ding Ding
"Hey, wake up, it's time to eat." The jailer knocked on the iron door a few times with a large spoon, then scooped a spoonful of porridge from the bucket and put it into the broken bowl on the floor of the cell.
Most of the porridge was spilled.
A few grains of rice and broken vegetable leaves could be seen in the porridge, and it also had a sour smell. It was obvious that this food was worse than pig food. Soon, a lot of flies were attracted to the porridge.
In a dark corner of the cell, there was a man lying.
Long iron chains were put on his limbs, and a chain was pierced through the scapula behind his back.
People don't know whether to live or die.
The jailer knocked on the iron door several times. Seeing that the figure inside still did not move, the jailer spat on the ground in anger: "You ungrateful thing, you are pretending to be dead again. Fine, if you don't want to eat, then starve. I want to see how many meals you can endure."
The jailer went back outside.
He threw the poke into the corner and cursed.
Another jailer swept the bucket and said while cracking some sunflower seeds, "The food in this bucket has been there for two days. It's all rotten. It's a wonder people can eat it. If you want him to eat, why don't you go to the Jiuxianlou and buy some good food!"
"Bah."
The jailer spat, "What about the Jiuxianlou? I can't even eat there, how can he deserve it! If the master didn't want to keep him alive, I wouldn't even give him this porridge to drink."
