In the face of Yu Hopeless's death threat, Chu Mingxuan behaved very calmly, as if he was sure that Yu Hopeless would not be ruthless to himself, and said calmly: "Since the grass people dare to come to this Taishou Mansion, they are already fully mentally prepared, if one of the national teachers wants to get rid of the grass people, then no one can stop them." ”

Yu Wuwang pursed his lips, he really wanted to know who gave Chu Mingxuan such a big confidence.

"The destruction of one granary and the loss of another silo may sound like a difficult task, but it is not a difficult solution. The National Teacher has been in Jiangcheng for so long, so he must have figured out the situation in Jiangcheng, right? Do you know whose industry is the largest grain store in Jiangcheng? ”

Without waiting for Yu Hopeless to speak, he said to himself: "It is my Chu family." ”

Jiangcheng is located in the middle of nowhere, and the merchants and visitors are far less than the endless flow of the capital, so there is not much commerce, here, the most profitable industry is grain trading, and the Chu family is the leader in this industry.

When there was an accident in Jiangcheng and the price of grain soared, many merchants sold their inventories, but the Chu family's business bank never made any movement. Turns out they were waiting for him here!

Jade Hopeless tapped on the table, and her mood suddenly became a little more irritable.

The Chu family deliberately kept the inventory in their hands, and the granary was suddenly destroyed, these two things happened one after another, making it difficult for Yu to be hopeless and not want to suspect Chu Mingxuan.

"You deliberately hoarded grain because you had expected that Jiangcheng's granary would be destroyed by someone with a heart?"

Chu Mingxuan realized that the other party had misunderstood him, and waved his hand again and again to explain: "Things are not what you imagined, Master Guoshi, my Chu family is just a merchant in Jiangcheng, how can I have such a great ability to avoid the heavy guards and attack the granary of Jiangcheng?" ”

"Then why are you hoarding food?"

Chu Mingxuan said with a complicated expression: "In fact, the Chu family's hoarding of food is not a matter of one or two days, a long, long time ago, when my father was still alive, the Chu family had this kind of thought, but for various reasons, it was not possible. Later, the first emperor died, and you and Her Royal Highness the emperor raised an army in Broken Leaf City, and the grass people really moved this kind of thought. If the national teacher is willing, all the food hoarded by my Chu family, including all the wealth and property of the Chu family, can be sent to the army for the army to use! ”

Yu Wuwang was really stunned this time.

He had heard of the reputation of this Chu Gongzi, it was said that his family was entangled, but he was never extravagant and wasteful, and on weekdays, a copper plate fell to the ground, and he did not hesitate to condescend to pick it up, why did he ....... today

Could it be because of the wind?

Thinking of this, he furrowed his brows, feeling a little uncomfortable: "I want to know the reason." ”

The objects that were delivered to his hands without knowing it were really unsafe to use, although Chu Mingxuan's conditions were very attractive at the moment, but Yu Wuwang did not rashly agree.

You have to understand the cause and effect before you can make a choice.

Chu Mingxuan was not discouraged, he had long expected that his words would be suspected by Yu Wuhope, but fortunately, he had already prepared his words: "Caomin is a businessman, and there are naturally conditions for doing this. ”

"Tell me what you think." Yu Wuwang was a little curious, he wanted to know what kind of reason he was able to change a person who was stingy by nature into such a generous appearance, and he also wanted to know if Chu Mingxuan would be heartbroken when he gave these promises.

Chu Mingxuan's eyes were full of sincerity: "Actually, the grass people only have one small request, just ask that after the National Teacher and His Royal Highness conquer the capital, they can help my Chu family overturn the case." ”

"Oh?"

Yu Wuwang raised his eyebrows slightly, looking up and down at the person in front of him, and the confusion in his heart deepened.

This kind of thing about overturning the case is often something that can only be said by the criminal or the criminal after the criminal, this Chu Mingxuan is glamorous, except for the unusual people who are not ordinary people in terms of money, there is no place like a criminal minister, or the appearance of being implicated, try to ask which criminal minister's family can live a prosperous life: "Whose case do you want to overturn?" ”

Chu Mingxuan's expression was as gloomy as iron, and he slowly spit out a life in his mouth.

Coincidentally, when Bai Huan rebuilt Meng Liguo, everything was in ruins, and Yu Wuhope, as a national teacher, had to help when there was a shortage of manpower, and he had seen the dossier of the person Chu Mingxuan said in Dali Temple. At that time, he just felt that the case was closed too quickly, and he was afraid that there was something strange in it, but he didn't ask much, after all, this is an old case, who will pursue it? I never expected that there would be family members of criminals in this Jiangcheng. Let's go slightly

Yu Wuwang's expression was slightly moved: "What is your relationship with him?" ”

"He was the grandfather of the grass people. At that time, the emperor was still in the court, and his grandfather was framed by thieves because he was upright and refused to accept bribes. They forged letters of collaboration with the enemy and branded my grandfather as a traitor, but I pity my grandfather, a man of letters, who has a proud backbone, where did he suffer such torture? Committed suicide by taking poison that night! Unexpectedly, it was not enough for those traitors to force their grandfather to die, and they insisted on blaming his grandfather's death as suicide in fear of crime! Fortunately, Her Royal Highness the Emperor at that time, that is, the first emperor, was kind enough to intercede for my people in front of the Emperor Taishang, and saved my family from the fate of beheading. The crime of burning to death can be avoided, and the crime of living cannot be escaped, and the whole clan of our Chu family is exiled to the northwest, and we will never be able to return to the capital. ”

Yu Wuwang said thoughtfully: "I didn't expect such a thing in the world. ”

"Does the National Teacher think that this is the end of the matter? Far from it! On that day, our clan was exiled to the northwest, and on the way to escort us, in order to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots, the slanderous people actually sent people to pretend to be mountain bandits to kill them all! Pity more than 100 members of my Chu family, but only my father is left, and he was left in Jiangcheng, and he was taken in and helped by others, so he changed his surname and name to have the current situation. Chu Mingxuan's face was painful, when the Chu family was in a desperate situation, although he was not born, his father often mentioned the prosperous situation of the Chu family in his ear, and when it came to the uncomfortable place, he even couldn't help but hug him and cry bitterly, even when he was dying, he also talked about this matter.

"My father wanted to be buried in his homeland and return to the capital until he died, and the grass people, as his only descendants, naturally had to do his best."

After listening to his narration, Yu Wuwang understood the reason why his family had a lot of money, but he never spent as much money as other young gentlemen, I am afraid that he had been dormant for a long time ago.

Seeing that Yu Wuxuan was slightly relieved, Chu Mingxuan realized that his opportunity had come, and knelt on the ground without hesitation: "Ask the National Master to agree to this small request of the grass people!" As long as the case can be overturned, my Chu family will not only contribute all the food to the army, but also give the family property with both hands! From now on, it will be the head of the National Teacher and His Royal Highness! ”

It can be seen that his desire to overturn the case is very urgent.

Yu's hopeless mind was indeed shaken: "You trust us so much that we will definitely be able to defeat the enemy army and return to the capital?" ”

The corners of Chu Mingxuan's lips were the same, and complex emotions emerged in his eyes, and a thousand words converged into one sentence at the corners of his lips: "Your Highness is the chosen one." ”

Others trust him so much, Yu is hopeless and not easy to live up, and nodded: "All the property of your Chu family is enough, and I am not the kind of person who rushes to kill everything, I just need to provide grain and grass to the army." What you ask for, when I return to the capital, I will naturally do it for you. ”

The father and son waited for many years, and finally waited for a chance to overturn the case, Chu Mingxuan's excitement was overflowing: "Thank you, Master Guoshi!" ”

In order to prove his determination, on the way back to his home, Chu Mingxuan directly instructed his cronies: "You go to the granary later, see how much food we have left, leave some, and send all the rest to the barracks." Also, from now on, all my grain stores will no longer be open, and all my goods will be supplied to the barracks. ”

The cronies gasped, and their eyes widened!

Although it is not a good way to make war money, but at present, the price of grain is when the tide rises, and the grain hoarded by their Chu family shop is sold at the current market price, I don't know how much input can be made, the eldest prince said to sell it, I'm afraid it's a little unsuitable!

"Childe, such a big matter, shouldn't you discuss it with Madame and the elders of the Chu family before making plans?"

Chu Mingxuan glanced at his cronies and sneered: "Are you doing things for me or for them?" Just do what I tell you to do and talk less nonsense! ”

This is the opportunity they have been waiting for with great difficulty, and they must not be buried because of indecision, all the obstacles in front of them, he Chu Mingxuan will have to sweep them one by one sooner or later!

The cronies said: "The little one is just worried about the ....... of the child"

"Hehe, those moths think that they helped my father back then, they are the elders of my Chu family, and they have begged for retribution for decades, and what my Chu family owes them has already been cleared. Only my mother, she is a confused person, but fortunately, my mother believes in Buddhism, and only recites sutras and prays in the ancestral hall all day long, just hide this from her. He paused, and then said confidently, "What is my father's wish before he dies, my mother knows better than me, how can she not understand after listening to him talk about it for so many years?" If you know my intentions, you can only support them. ”

"The small ones understand, and the small ones will do it."

Chu Mingxuan's heart moved slightly, and he couldn't help but admonish: "This is my biggest gamble, you should wake up and don't make any mistakes." If things are done, there will be a reward. ”

A gleam flashed in the cronies' eyes: "Don't worry, the little one will never make any mistakes!" When the food is ordered, the account book will be sent to the son immediately. ”

"There you go."

The cronies took the order and left, looking at his back in a hurry, for some reason, a delicate face appeared in Chu Mingxuan's mind.

He frowned, casually brushed the picture from his mind, and when the smoke disappeared, he secretly said to himself in his heart, it is not your thing, don't worry about it, even if you don't have the slightest thought.
