2073 I Don't Blame You
In the study room of King Huan's mansion, the eldest prince Ji Biao was discussing with his military advisor Tu Song.
Their plan to take over the two major cash cows of the Haiyuan Marquis, the Ancient Shift Formation and the Haiyuan Port, died because of Ye Zhen, and let Ye Zhen directly put his power in the Haiyuan Marquis Kingdom to the bottom.
This has a great impact on King Huan Ji Wei, who has already participated in the succession.
Even if it didn't completely take over the port of Haiwon before, the business house of the great prince still had a high income in the port of Haiwon.
Most merchants have to rely on the nobility, otherwise they are fat pigs to be slaughtered.
The main reason is that when doing business, you will encounter all kinds of extortion and normal taxes.
However, tax collectors at all levels in Dazhou have a certain discretion in this tax fee.
Depending on various factors, a minimum of 30 taxes can be taxed, and the highest can be 10 taxes or even 8 taxes, the difference between which is as high as three times or more.
And those caravans that were attached to the nobility were to avoid being extorted by the tax collectors and to collect taxes at the highest rate, and to avoid all kinds of extortion.
But even so, it also depends on the energy of the nobles behind them.
If there is a prince standing behind a caravan, then according to the power and influence of this prince, the tax rate may be fifteen or thirty.
However, if you rely on the gold-lettered signboard of King Huan Ji Biao, no matter where it is, there will be a minimum tax of thirty and one.
The port of Haiyuan directly transports goods to the major bazaars in Beihai, with huge shipments and extremely high profits.
Since the prosperity of Haiyuan Port, the caravans here have always been one of the important sources of wealth for King Huan's Ji Ao.
This is also the reason why King Huan Ji Biao has always wanted to completely occupy the ancient Nuo Movement Formation and the port of the Haiyuan Marquis of Haiyuan.
These two places are the best combination of cash cows.
But who knows, not only did it not succeed in taking over, but even the caravan that could have contributed huge benefits was completely wiped out.
This piece of income is gone, and it immediately makes Huan Wang Jiqiu's financial resources a little unturnable.
At this moment, he is discussing countermeasures with Tu Song, the military division of Tsing Yi.
"Your Highness, the Marquis of Haiyuan, we don't want to restore it for the time being. For the sake of today's plan, we can only open up sources and reduce expenditure.
Open source, first of all, the transaction volume with the Taimeng Demon Realm, which can be increased by more than two percent, and some subordinates Guan said that the Taimeng Demon Realm can consume this batch of goods......."
While discussing, Zhao Yu, the chief manager of King Huan's Mansion, stepped forward with a strange face and handed a famous thorn to King Huan Ji Biao.
Just glanced at the famous thorn, Huan Wang Ji Biao slammed the table, "What a big thief, dare to come to the door at this time, is there really no way to cure the king of this deception?"
"Your Highness, that Ye Zhen, not only handed the famous Thorn Marquis outside the door, but also brought two carts to give to His Highness. It's just that on those two big cars, it's all ......." The next words, Zhao Yu, the chief manager of the Huan Wangfu, didn't dare to say it.
"What is all?" Huan Wang Ji Wei's face sank sharply.
"It's all ......." Zhao Yu, the chief manager, glanced up at Ji Yu, and then said in a very low voice, "Jingguan!"
"It's all the heads of the samurai and domestic slaves who were killed in the Marquis of Haiyuan to form a Kyokan!"
In the next moment, Huan Wang Ji got up suddenly, and the murderous spirit rushed to the sky, "It's against him!"
"Put Jingguan in front of a prince's palace, is he going to rebel?"
"Go, please ask the worshippers in the palace to take action, and kill this madman who dares to rush into the majesty of the palace on the spot. Tell them that the king will take care of everything!"
"A little patrolman, even if it has something to do with it, but this king is the emperor's nobleman, killing him is like killing a dog!
Even if my father knew, he would just reprimand me a few words. ”
Saying that, King Huan Ji Wei sneered, "If you don't know whether you live or die, you can send it to the door yourself, but don't blame this king for being ruthless." ”
King Huan's order was given, but Zhao Yu, the chief manager of King Huan's Mansion, was motionless.
This made King Huan's eyelids suddenly raised, "If you don't give the order yet, what are you doing?"
Zhao Yu's face was a little pale at this time, and he bent over there and said slowly, "Your Highness, before you came, Ye Zhen had already filed with the Heaven Survey Division and the Military Department.
It is said that these rebellions who plotted to rebel and occupy the ancient Nuo Shift Formation actually bit His Royal Highness King Huan one by one, so they specially brought the heads of these guys to make an explanation to His Highness!"
Huan Wang Ji raised his eyebrows, "What is this?"
"Desperately suffer and fall, behead him, what else?"
"But Your Highness, just now, news came from the palace, Yan Bian, the deputy head of the palace that you sent to the Haiyuan Marquis this time to discuss important matters with Guo Zhang, the monarch of the Haiyuan Marquis, has been sent by Ye Zhen to the Internal Supervision and Criminal Division. ”
"In less than an hour, the deputy governor Yan Bian sentenced him to death by the Prudential Criminal Division, and it is said that there was the approval of the chief of the fish. ”
Hearing this, Huan Wang Ji Ji was furious, "Yu Chaoen, this old thing, his ass dares to sit crookedly here to Ye Zhen?"
When did the inner eunuch dare to favor the foreign minister in the battle between the prince and the foreign minister?"
"Your Highness, the innate soul of Yan Bian, the deputy chief who was executed, was then sent to the Ancestral God Temple Barbarian Spirit Hall to make weapons, and it is said that Her Royal Highness Princess Changle personally spoke. ”
When Zhao Yu, the chief administrator of the Huan Wangfu, said this, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes.
For their internal prisons, don't look at the fact that following behind Huan Wang Ji Biao can call the wind and rain, but the Inner Prison Shen Punishment Division is a sharp blade hanging above their heads that can kill them at any time, and this point, even Huan Wang Ji Biao is useless.
And Princess Changle has a very close relationship with Yu Chaoen, the chief manager of the internal supervision, and the relationship between Ye Zhen and Princess Changle is extraordinary.
In this case, this combination is a very terrifying deterrent to them eunuchs.
"Changle?"
Huan Wang Ji's pupils shrank suddenly, "This slut with his elbow turned outward! ”
"I heard that this Ye Zhen is the person this slut wants. With a sneer, King Huan Ji Wei ordered again, "Since this is the case, then the king will simply fulfill you." ”
"It's okay, continue to pass the order, order the worshippers to leave the house immediately, kill Ye Zhen, and take his head to make wine vessels for this king! ”
Regarding this order of Huan Wang Ji Biao, Tu Song, the military division of Tsing Yi, gave an opinion in favor.
That's right, anyway, Her Royal Highness Princess Changle has already stood on the opposite side of us, so it would be more beneficial to simply kill this Ye Zhen and get rid of this scourge first. ”
To the surprise of the two, the chief manager Zhao Yu still stood there and did not give orders, but had a bitter face.
"What's going on?" asked Tu Song, the Tsing Yi military advisor who saw that something was wrong.
"Mr. Hui, at this moment, the frame of Her Royal Highness Princess Changle is just around the corner of the street outside the palace, if we do it, ....... it"
"Changle, this slut, deceives people too much!" King Huan Ji slapped the table and shouted angrily, and the precious table made of purple dragon colored wood that had grown for thousands of years was immediately shattered.
"Your Royal Highness, now that Princess Changle is present, it is impossible to kill Ye Zhen on the spot. After all, Princess Changle's strength and identity are there.
That Ye Zhen, let people pass away, and look for opportunities to deal with it in the future!" Tu Song suggested.
After pondering for a long time, Huan Wang Ji Wei finally sat back in his chair and said helplessly, "Mr. Lao will send this thief first." ”
As Tu Song, the military advisor in Tsing Yi, left in a hurry, the sound of a broken teacup came again in the study of King Huan Jiqiu.
In just two days, Huan Wang Ji Biao suffered two extremely aggrieved defeats, which was something that had happened in the future before.
That feeling made King Huan Ji depressed and wanted to bleed.
The two carts that Ye Zhen sent to the gate of King Huan's Mansion full of people hitchhiking on the head disappeared in an instant after being received by Tu Song and sending Ye Zhen away.
Before and after, he appeared at the gate of King Huan's mansion, but it was less than a quarter of an hour.
But what is Luoyi in Da Zhou?
The cardinal of the world!
A certain minister of military aircraft can eat two more bowls of rice and become a place for gossip.
Not to mention the explosive news that the Jingguan car, which was hitchhiked by people, appeared at the gate of King Huan's mansion, and instantly spread throughout Luoyi.
At first, many officials thought that Ye Zhen would be unlucky.
But as Ye Zhen left safely, the expressions of countless officials and followers became extremely surprised again.
For a while, there was a lot of speculation.
Such a slap in the face, can Huan Wangfu endure it?
This makes people with a keen sense of smell, or those with a long-term vision, see a faint signal.
And this incident, in the future, was called the landmark event of King Huan Ji Biao embarking on the road of destruction.
It is also a milestone event for the Great Zhou Dynasty.
.......
"Why are you here?"
In front of people, Ye Zhen did his duty as a courtier and walked on the side of Princess Changle's frame, but secretly, he communicated with Princess Changle's spirit.
"I'm a little worried, my eldest brother, I'm going to do things, but I'm a little desperate, so I'm here to pick you up. Changle Gong said.
These words made Ye Zhen's face a little helpless, "It's not so easy to kill me." But if you do this, you will completely tear your face with King Huan. ”
"So what?"
Princess Changle in the frame looked indifferent, "Back then, weren't you desperate to protect me?"
"That's different, that's my duty?"
"Is it just a duty?"
Ye Zhen was speechless again, and just after the atmosphere between the two fell silent, Princess Changle's divine soul transmission sounded again, "Have you prepared any gifts for me after leaving for so long this time?"
"This ......" Ye Zhen fell into embarrassment again, "You know, this time I went out to kill step by step, so I didn't ......"
"I know, so, I don't blame you, but you have to make it up to me. Princess Changle chuckled.
"And how do you want me to compensate you?"
"Do you remember when you and I were in the demon territory, I couldn't eat the food there, and the meals you made for me yourself?"
"I want you to make it for me again. ”
