Chapter 502: Relief to the Capital (4)

On the throne, Chongzhen also frowned, and what Cai Guo said was not unreasonable.

Now people can still buy high-priced rice, but if the rice shops don't sell rice because of the price limit, then it will be a big deal.

Liu Ximing immediately grabbed the handle in Cai Guo's words at this time, and attacked vigorously:

"Da Situ's words are wrong, the dynasty has educated the world with benevolence, righteousness and morality for three hundred years, and the lower officials firmly believe that there must be people who are interested in the country among the merchants in the capital, and the court shows its authority on the one hand, and influences it with virtue on the other hand, how can there be stubborn people who do not know how to experience the holy grace and insist on going their own way."

Besides", Liu Ximing smiled and put the finishing touch: "As soon as this order came out, the people of the capital knew that the imperial court was also thinking about them, if something really happened, it was also the crime of those businessmen who hoarded Juqi, what does it have to do with the imperial court." ”

Cai Guoyong was silent when he heard this, he thought that this new Amberdo was a person who had military exploits, but he was just a nerd.

Among the courtiers, Liu Zongzhou, the squire of the Ministry of Works, that is, the teacher of Huang Zongxi and others, stood up with laughter.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that what Shao Zhan said makes sense, I am a pure moral teacher, and the people are all edifyable people, and Shao Zhan's theory of moral influence is quite reasonable."

Liu Zongzhou opened his mouth, and the "gentlemen" of Donglin in the court immediately followed suit and stood up.

"The Ministers Think They Are Justified"

Anyway, these people in Donglin are all based in the southeast, and there is no interest for them in the capital, so they are naturally happy to talk about benevolence, righteousness and morality.

Among the relatives, Xu Zhen, the Duke of Dingguo, gently stabbed Zhu Chunchen's arm, but saw him open his eyes slightly and shook his head.

Seeing that these princes didn't speak, Xu Xideng, Marquis of Wuding, Xue Lian, Marquis of Yangwu, and others, who were anxiously scratching their ears and cheeks in the queue, could only stare dryly.

When Chongzhen saw that such a person in the court agreed, he immediately smiled and said: "Okay, since Xin'an Bo is full of confidence, then this matter will be handled by you, and you must restore peace in Beijing as soon as possible." ”

Liu Ximing sighed in his heart, whoever comes up with the idea will do it, this is a big taboo in management.

However, this matter was quite agreeable to him, and at the moment he bowed solemnly, "Your Majesty has an order, and the ministers should obey the order." ”

The officials below the household department all looked at Liu Ximing's back gloatingly, calling you kid to be in the limelight, I see what to do about this.

"However, as the minister said, the minister asks His Majesty to allow the minister to act cheaply."

"I'm right", Chongzhen waved his hand, and now the capital camp is under the control of the internal prison, and he is not afraid of someone making trouble.

When the next dynasty walked out of the imperial pole, Xu Zhen, the Duke of Dingguo, grabbed Zhu Chunchen, the Duke of Chengguo, and said in a low voice: "Why don't you stop it by speaking out, do we still want to make this money?" ”

Later, Xu Xideng and Xue Lian looked anxious.

Zhu Chunchen sneered, "What's the hurry, is this matter up to his little new Amber, let's not open our mouths, just wait and see him punished by His Majesty." ”

"You forgot, he also has a lot of rice shops", Xu Zhen said a little anxiously.

Zhu Chunchen looked at Xu Zhen like a fool, "Is it our rice or his family's rice more, there are more than one million people in the capital, and it costs two or three hundred thousand stones a month, except for us, who can provide it." ”

At this time, Liu Ximing also walked out from behind the crowd, and Zhu Chunchen stopped him with his left hand.

"The new Amber is dedicated to doing things, which is rare."

Facing Zhu Chunchen's hypocritical smile, Liu Ximing looked stupid and smiled: "Where is it, since Your Majesty trusts the lower officials, the lower officials can only be fooled." ”

"Hehe, then I wish Shao Zhan a smooth errand."

Xu Zhen said with a sneer, pulled Zhu Chunchen and the others and left.

Liu Ximing watched with a smile on the corner of his mouth as this group of Zixungui went together, and did not turn to find Wang Chengen until he couldn't see his back.

The matter of the transfer of troops in the Beijing camp still needs the nod of him, the commander of the Beijing camp, Rongzheng.

Liu Xi's fate is naturally Zhou Yuji, Jiang Deshen and others, in the last war, the thousands of people in Jingying were successfully gathered by him.

It is naturally impossible to make these people loyal to him like the Dragon Master, but it is very convenient if they are only used for one purpose.

In the barracks, under the witness of the celebrant and eunuch Li Guofu, Zhou Yuji, the chief officer of the fifth military camp, clenched his fists and listened to the order, "Please give the order." ”

"Send all the soldiers to the streets, on the one hand, control the order on the streets, and arrest those who dare to smash, loot and burn, and in addition, order people to hold the official's notice along the street to announce that those who dare to sell rice shops at high prices will also arrest the shopkeeper for me."

"Obedience"

Zhou Yuji and the others moved quickly, and the people of the capital woke up one night to find that the streets and alleys were full of heavily armed soldiers from the Beijing camp walking around on duty.

Surprised to hear the order issued by Liu Ximing, most of the capital was boiling, and for a while, everyone was transmitting Chongzhen's benevolence, and even Liu Ximing was stained with a lot of light.

It's just that the people in the city soon discovered that the order issued by Liu Ximing sounded good, but it did not alleviate the actual situation.

Originally, there were still many rice shops selling rice in the city, but since this order came out, basically all of them have been closed.

The Han Yuan shop under the name of Suo Liu's family was still selling rice, and there was a long queue in the capital again.

In the Chengguo Mansion, a man in a long shirt who looked like a steward ran into the mansion sweating profusely.

"Grandpa, something is wrong."

Zhu Chunchen was playing chess with his staff, and he was immediately displeased when he heard this voice.

"What are you panicking about, what kind of system is it?"

"Grandpa, the new Amber's house not only opened up to sell rice, but also directly reduced the price of rice to one or two or eight yuan, and almost all the people in the capital went to grab rice!"

for

Zhu Chunchen's face suddenly changed and he stood up, thought for a moment and sat down with nothing to do.

He said with a smile while playing with the jade flag in his hand: "This kid surnamed Liu is starting to panic, my father wants to see how much grain he has enough to sell at such a low price." ”

In Chongbeifang, the outer city of Jingshi, there was a long queue in front of a shop that was very different from the appearance of the shops of this era.

This shop is actually made of pale green transparent glass as the window, and the window edge is all pale yellow wood tones, which is particularly chic.

"Don't worry, don't worry, my family has enough rice, don't worry."

Naturally, this shop was a shop under the name of Han Yuan Firm, but no matter how hoarse and loud the guys in the store shouted, the number of people in line still did not decrease.

What are you kidding, one tael and eight dollars and one stone, this price is only half more expensive than a year ago, and the people in the capital who have just experienced the sky-high price of rice have just risen to six taels of silver and one stone, and they are all frightened, so naturally they can hoard as much as they want.

Chengguo Gong and Dingguo Gong originally planned to watch Liu Ximing's troubles, but who knew that for two days in a row, the Liu family's rice shop was open for sale as if it was not out of stock, and now these nobles couldn't sit still.

After two days, Zhu Chunchen and others estimated that the Liu family had already sold more than 30,000 stones, and if they sold it for a few more days, they would no longer have to sell the rice they and others had hoarded, because the people in the city had already bought enough.

Outside the Xin'anbo Mansion, Zhu Xinjue, the prince of Chengguo, was once again ushered in, but this time he was not alone, but brought more than a dozen teenagers who were also dressed in gorgeous clothes.

In the main hall, hearing Zhu Xinjue introduce these people one by one, what is the prince of the Duke of Xuguo, the prince of the Marquis of Wuding, Liu Ximing was shocked in his heart, this is the joint pressure of the nobles in Beijing.

But he was not afraid at all, not to mention that he was a civil official, and the nobles would not be able to get him on his head.

Besides, the nobles of the Chongzhen Dynasty are really not good, if it is beneficial to themselves, what if they step on the throne.

Liu Ximing's thoughtful appearance made Zhu Xinjue think that he was afraid, and smiled proudly at the moment:

"Xin Amber is really a talent, even my father is full of praise for you, now I won't talk nonsense, we have so many noble children gathered together, you have to sell some face to us, otherwise, hum."

"I don't know what kind of face the little grandfather wants this official to sell?"

"Let your rice shop close immediately, and you are not allowed to sell rice at a low price", Xue Qi, the Marquis of Wuding, said with a vicious expression.

"Hehe, this is impossible", Liu Ximing laughed and shook his head, completely ignoring Xue Qi.

"Since Your Majesty has appointed me to settle the dispute between Beijing and China, if I don't do something, how can I give an account to Your Majesty?"

"You don't have to worry about this kind of thing", Zhu Xinjue frowned and said, "Since we let you close the door, there is a way to protect you in front of Your Majesty, you just say if you want to." ”

"Little grandfather, what nonsense to talk to him, this shop has to be closed if it is not closed today."

"That's right, we really can't set it up."

A few noble sons stood up impatiently and threatened.

Waving his hand to signal Li Biao and the others who rushed up to retreat, Liu Ximing smiled and stood with his hands in his hands.

"You still think that this is your mansion, and if you want to use force, how can this official be afraid of you."
