Chen Jingchuan, lying on the ground, was frightened. He replied, "your Highness the Prince, Cao Min."
"according to the Daqin etiquette system, the commercial register is the cheapest, the palace must not be more than three meters high, the staircase can only be used four steps, and the door nails can not exceed 36 at most. You are not allowed to own land in the capital. Chen Jingchuan, are you treading on the Daqin etiquette system as if it were nothing"
Li Chen interrupted Chen Jingchuan directly and said calmly.
although the tone of this remark is indifferent, it contains an extremely cold opportunity.
under the cover of killing opportunities, there are dozens of Jinyi Wei eyeing covetously. It seems that as long as the prince orders, the Chen family will immediately become a pool of meat mud.
Chen Jingchuan was frightened. He was told to ignore the prince's banquet, but he didn't want to be sandwiched between the crown prince and the imperial court. He became a victim in the struggle between the imperial power and the subject power.
although at the beginning of the dynasty, no one dared to exceed the etiquette system, but now that the dynasty has been open for more than two hundred years, the court is becoming more and more decadent and corrupt, and usually no one cares about this at all, but if the crown prince gets hold of it, it is a great sin.
nothing else, power.
he explained in a trembling voice: "the grass people are wronged. This house is rented by the grass people, not bought. The grass people are willing to give up the rent immediately."
"trampling on the rules laid down by Taizu, can you just give up the rent"
Li Chen sneered, stared at Chen Jingchuan and said calmly, "I don't want to hear your explanation, nor do I intend to know who gave you the courage to brush my face. I would like to lend you the first use of the Chen family to show them what happened to me."
Chen Jingchuan heard that the liver and gallbladder were split.
looking at the ferocious Jin Yiwei of the east factory around him, he knew that the prince was definitely not talking about it.
at the moment, regretting getting involved, he hurriedly said, "ask the prince for mercy, beg his Royal Highness for mercy!"
behind Chen Jingchuan, the woman was so frightened that she cried out on the spot. A teenager immediately stood up and pointed to Li Chen's anger and said, "although you are a crown prince, our Chen family is also a law-abiding businessman. If you disagree, you want to fight and kill. How can the world be convinced like this" Don't forget that the people of the capital are watching you behind you! "
when Chen Jingchuan saw his son jump out and say this, he was so furious that he immediately slapped his son in the face and scolded, "shut up, you rebellious son!" Do you want us to die all over the Chen family "
with that, Chen Jingchuan knelt down to Li Chen and cried, "under the Crown Prince's Hall, Cao Min has no way to teach his son. Ask his Royal Highness for mercy."
Li Chen looked at the teenager who had been slapped in the face and became more and more unconvinced, and said faintly: "Yes, he has courage."
"the Chen family, as one of the largest grain merchants in the capital area, is now suffering from disasters all over the world, and countless victims have changed their sons to eat, that is, the people in the capital who have worked hard for three meals a day at the foot of the son of Heaven. What can they get in return It is you grain merchants who would rather get moldy when they hold grain than sell it at a normal price. Whose fault is it that the price of a jin of white rice on the market has increased tenfold It is the sin of you grain merchants! "
"since ancient times, when merchants have valued profits and trampled on the righteousness of a gentleman, when you have made a lot of national disaster and wealth and sucked the people's fat and ointment, why don't you know that the people are watching Now that retribution has come, you are using the people as a shield Do you think people are stupid "
Li Chen's words were resounding, and countless people who were watching the hustle and bustle were filled with enthusiasm one by one.
Grain merchants have money and grain, and they can only sell their household property in exchange for less food, so public grievances have long been boiling, but there is no outlet.
now that the crown prince is here in person, these words come to their hearts.
(adsbygoogle = indo.adsbygoogle | | []). Ush ({});
"his Royal Highness the Crown Prince is kind, the Crown Prince is kind!"
in the crowd, several old men immediately knelt down and shouted excitedly.
then, the people knelt down on a large mass, all shouting the prince's mercy.
seeing Li Chen's words occupy the great meaning and the hearts of the people, Chen Jingchuan's liver and gallbladder are all split, and he only feels that disaster is imminent.
is it possible for him to deal with such a means of playing with people's hearts
"the man, the merchant of the Chen family, and the owner of the family, Chen Jingchuan, ignored the imperial etiquette, exceeded the rules, did not know how to sympathize with the blood and sweat of the people in times of national disaster, did not know that the court was difficult, made a fortune of national disaster, and committed heinous crimes, and his son even collided with the prince of the state, which was disrespectful."
"according to the imperial edict of the Crown Prince of this palace, the three families of the Chen family should show their heads to the public, leaving nothing of their property to be charged into the state treasury for disaster relief."
when Li Chen gave the order, he was rolling his head.
Chen Jingchuan only felt black in front of his eyes. He was so frightened that he pounced on him to ask for mercy, but was stopped by two Jinyi guards with a knife on his neck.
"his Royal Highness the Crown Prince spared his life, and Cao Min was only helpless. Cao Min was willing to donate all his wealth, only to spare his life, and to beg his Royal Highness for mercy out of the law!"
Li Chen just didn't hear it, turned the horse's head and walked towards the next house.
this time, the people spontaneously gave way and lined the streets to welcome them.
Chen Jingchuan's screams gradually faded away. As he approached the second Hu's house, Li Chen glanced at the pale Xu Changqing and said faintly, "are you afraid" Or do you think I'm too tyrannical "
Xu Changqing dared to tell the truth, but said with a wry smile, "Weichen, Weichen just think that these three grain merchants themselves are nothing, but the reason why they dare to unite and refuse his Royal Highness's invitation must be that someone is in the way. In this way, his Royal Highness will kill him easily, but he may be right in each other's hands."
"Yes, I know I'm on my side." Li Chen said with satisfaction.
Xu Changqing smiled bitterly.
his Royal Highness has come out with so much fanfare, isn't it just to let everyone see his means and bring himself with him this is to let everyone know that he is already a man of the crown prince, and this trace cannot be washed away even if he wants to, it means that Xu Changqing now has no choice but to follow the prince to the dark.
"it's not what I'm thinking about right now, whether it's exactly what they want or what they didn't expect. All I have to do is use the sharpest knife to chop up the mess of the capital in the shortest possible time."
"I don't have the time and time to work slowly with those demons, intrigues and intrigues in the court. I will cut down whoever stands in my way in order to break the law. I am the legitimate heir in this world, and now I am in the prison state. If I don't take advantage of this special advantage, do you want me to endure the death of that old thing like Zhao Xuanji"
"look at his spirit, he still has more than ten years to live. By that time, I will be 30 or 40 years old. Even if I can survive, the empire will not survive, and I will not have the patience to endure it. I am even more lazy to play these intrigues with them. I will kill them all neatly."
when Li Chen finished his words, he grabbed the horse's belly lightly. The horse was so intelligent that he immediately speeded up and left Xu Changqing behind.
Xu Changqing looked at the back of the prince in a daze and felt that the prince thought things were too simple. If only one killing word could solve everything, the emperor would have solved all the troubles.
regardless of Xu Changqing's thoughts, Li Chen has arrived at Hu's door. be surprised by his sister after saying this, but it turned out to be an eerie silence in the bead curtain.after waiting for a while, Zhao Tailai couldn't hold back any longer. He asked, "Sister, are...
