The princes' money bags, but they all occupy the entire imperial capital, that is the family that can be called, no one can get away from anyone, it can be said that the entire imperial capital, unless the two are hostile, never buy goods or help sell in each other's homes, and the rest, more or less, will have all kinds of business involvement.

Originally, I was suspicious of Zhou Lingmo, but I didn't expect that the second prince's money bag, Li Tianyi's matter, it is said that the right minister had already gone to Zhou's house to lower his face and pulled down his face, but Zhou Lingmo still didn't help.

In the end, it was the people in the rivers and lakes they were looking for, that is, the pavilion master of the Wuyue Pavilion, who took over this mess. So much so that the entire imperial capital's winery has now become a moonless pavilion.

People in the rivers and lakes do business, and they pay taxes in their own right, but because they are people in the rivers and lakes, they can't be restricted from anything, as long as they don't evade taxes, they don't know the boundary, it's easy to say.

Originally, the emperor wanted to find out if the Wuyue Pavilion had crossed the line, such as bribing the government, evading taxes, etc., but it didn't. Find out if you are harming good people, but it doesn't.

The only thing that can make people in the rivers and lakes wanted by the government is to kill good people, and there is a conflict of interest with the imperial court.

The emperor glanced at Liu Heng, Liu Heng understood what the emperor meant, so he smiled and said: "County Lord, then according to what you say, if you give this price lower and don't buy it out, won't it benefit more people?" ”

Zhou Huanchun smiled slightly, "What you think is simple, I guess it's impossible." At that time, she sold it to me, and she didn't tell me that it was a buyout, otherwise I misunderstood? She's a very inscrutable person, and I sometimes can't understand her.

Anyway, don't we just have no problem with this medicine? ”

Liu Heng continued to ask: "Then county lord, do you remember what this Wuyue Pavilion Lord said to you when you bought medicine?" ”

Zhou Huanchun shook her head, "I don't remember, it's been a long time." Besides, it's been a long time, and I don't remember what I said yesterday. ”

Liu Heng smiled, "Then in this case, the county lord can ask, let's buy things, in the end, we also want to buy peace of mind." ”

Zhou Huanchun frowned, "Why do I have to ask so much, in fact, isn't it good to sell it to me?" Besides, our Zhou family is not short of money, so sell it to me and sell it to me, what's wrong?

Actually, I didn't understand what she was supposed to say at the time. Anyway, I don't understand what Wen Crepe said! If you sell it, you will sell it, and it will only be sold to me in the future, which is fine.

If nothing else, what if there are more people who buy it, and they don't have that much time to do this for me, or don't want to do so much? ”

Liu Heng sighed and smiled, "What the county lord said is that the Zhou family has money, and it is not bad for the money to buy out." Fortunately, in this way, this medicine can only be supplied to the emperor, if it really catches up with the quantity limit, I am afraid that the emperor will not enjoy it. ”

Zhou Huanchun snorted, "That's it, so, I don't think there's any need to ask." Since it's a buyout, it's a buyout. My father is the only one in the world, so why can't he enjoy the only privileges? ”

"Hahahaha......" The emperor was in a good mood when he heard this.

Zhou Huanchun smiled, "By the way, I heard the maid of Wuyue Pavilion seem to say that the elixir of immortality has eyebrows, is there really an elixir of immortality in this world?" When I went back to talk to Lingmo, he didn't believe it. ”

Although Zhou Huanchun didn't look at the emperor, when she said this, she could already feel that the emperor must be interested in this matter.

So, she raised her eyes and looked at the emperor with a puzzled expression.

"Did you really hear that?" The Emperor eagerly put down the fold in his hand.

Zhou Huanchun snorted, "My ears are okay, not to mention that the maid said it at that time in a very close place, the Lord of the Moon Pavilion was face to face with me, and the maid said it in her ear."

However, even if you hear it, what can you do, this thing, hehe, the eight achievements are used to deceive people, it must be to deceive some high-ranking officials, after all, everyone is afraid of death! ”

The emperor pondered for a while, glanced at Liu Heng, and Liu Heng continued to smile: "County Lord, you can buy it and let the imperial doctors help take a look at it, see if this medicine is really immortal." ”

Zhou Huanchun waved her hand, "Oh, forget that thing, Bacheng is a lie." Even if the imperial doctor checks it, I guess it's non-toxic at best. ”

Liu Heng didn't say much, he gave the emperor a look, and the tacit understanding between the emperor and Liu Heng was still very high. He understood what Liu Heng meant, so he didn't ask.

After greeting for a while, Zhou Huanchun said that he was leaving, and then asked Liu Heng to send Zhou Huanchun.

When he walked out of the door, Liu Heng looked around, sighed and said, "County Lord, what are you doing with this elixir?" ”

Zhou Huanchun smiled slightly, "This elixir of immortality is ready to be dedicated to him." Innocuity. ”

Liu Heng was stunned, "This ...... Why? ”

Zhou Huanchun smiled, "Didn't you say that I have chips?" ”

Liu Heng smiled, "Okay, the county lord has the style of the county lord doing things." ”

Zhou Huanchun snorted, "Two months later, Gonggong Liu may have to do something, the princes are about to move, and they won't last a few months, according to the current situation of the Zhou family, the new emperor will succeed to the throne in the past few months."

Father-in-law Liu, how did you choose, two months is enough for you to figure it out. ”

Liu Heng was stunned, although he had been prepared in his heart, he didn't expect time to pass so quickly.

He sighed, "The old slave has already figured it out, county lord, what you want to do, just give orders." ”

Now that he calls himself an old slave, he has already made a statement. It means that he is loyal to Zhou Huanchun. Because no matter which prince the Zhou family supports, he is still a slave.

If you cling to the big tree of the Zhou family, no matter what benefits the new emperor can give to the Zhou family, or what you can do to the Zhou family, it will take more than ten or twenty years.

As soon as he took the throne, he made a move on the Zhou family, so there is no doubt that the throne will not be stable, and it can only be silently weakened in the future, but it depends on the ability of the new emperor.

Liu Heng also knows that he has been in the West for more than ten or twenty years, and he is afraid that he has already returned to the West, so he is not worried about this, anyway, he is currently taking refuge in the Zhou family, and he can watch the sunrise for a year, and he will also earn money.

With his understanding of the emperor, the Zhou family must be eliminated, not far away, just near, and now this emperor is waiting to get rid of the Zhou family after he is immortal.

Because of the economic interests of the Zhou family, they can already compete with the empire. If it is the new emperor, if he has a little brain, he will also get rid of the Zhou family.

Because, since the Zhou family can support him to become the emperor, they must also be able to support other people to become emperors, because the Zhou family is rich, as long as they can grasp the economic lifeline, they will definitely control the court.

Zhou Huanchun smiled slightly, "Gonggong Liu just chose the right path, don't have such a tragic feeling." When the time comes, no one will know anything, because we will not mention you. It will only be said that this is our own handiwork. ”

Liu Heng smiled, "So, thank you to the county lord." ”

He is a human spirit, how could he not understand what Zhou Huanchun meant? She wants to protect his reputation, even if he has to retire in the end, he will end up with a good reputation.

In the intelligence network sent to the emperor, to put it bluntly, it was all information that he trusted, and he also collected a lot of information, bits and pieces, including the Zhou family.

It's just that I didn't think about it at the time, and I always felt that whatever the Zhou family did seemed to be very normal. But it is impossible for people to be without weaknesses, and the biggest weakness of the Zhou family is that Zhou Lingmo is a person, who basically does not leave a way for people to live.

Of course, this is also the information that Zhou Lingmo asked people to investigate, a lot of information is false, it is all his own shop, arranging people by himself, fixing himself, directing and acting by himself, and there are just some rumors.

For those real business transactions, he will leave people behind. As for these people's questioning, they said, "It's just a rumor."

Anyway, true or false, in the end, it can only cause one phenomenon, that is, people who really know him will know that this rumor is false.

People who don't believe it, when they hear this rumor and hear Zhou Lingmo say that it's just a rumor, they will think that this is his quibble!

Therefore, Liu Heng at that time really thought that it was just a quibble, and he didn't need to care too much, so he would never mention Zhou Lingmo in front of the emperor.

Unless the emperor asked, he would tell the truth, of course, the information given was just not to be afraid.

This, in the emperor's place, played a great role.

What the emperor knows, he doesn't know the first bit of information, Liu Heng picks the important ones, and what he says is not detailed at all, so the emperor will not think of this.

On the other hand, when Zhou Lingmo made a move, the first person to react was Liu Heng, combined with the bits and pieces that he knew were particularly specific, he understood that everything was a layout.

A person can have such an overall situation, it has taken so many years to work step by step, counting Zhou Lingmo's age, he is only twenty years old, and these industries began to develop when he was fifteen years old.

If an industry wants to develop, it is impossible to develop it in an instant, no matter how capable you are, you must have time, so Zhou Lingmo can't just be ready for everything at the age of fifteen, and then start the layout.

At first, everyone thought that he was just using the power of the royal family.

However, they won't know that in fact, the palace of the imperial capital is also Liu Heng's people, and Liu Heng's people came to report the information of this separation, which has so many industries, Liu Heng has the impression, and initially thought that it was the Zhou family.

Unexpectedly, it turned out to be early in Zhou Lingmo's own name. And looking at the time of the transfer, it was just right, five years ago.

All the industries, in the name of the Zhou family, rose overnight, this was not just deployed, but before Zhou Lingmo was fifteen years old, I don't know how many years it took to deploy.

As soon as he became an adult, he used this way to announce his adulthood and began to lay out.

Thinking about it carefully, Liu Heng recalled this possibility one night, and he broke out in a cold sweat. He couldn't have imagined that if he hadn't wanted to leave the palace because he was dead set on the emperor, then, perhaps, he would now stand in opposition to the Zhou family.

And with the strength of the Zhou family, I am afraid that without waiting for the emperor to do it, the Zhou family will directly abolish him.

The reason why he thinks this way is because Liu Heng will not think about Zhou Lingmo in a simple way, just because he knows that Zhou Lingmo is actually very close to several officials, to put it bluntly, he is very close to the eldest sons of these officials.

It seems that it has nothing to do with these officials, but if you think about it carefully, it really has something to do with it? What if that's just a façade?

Thinking of this, he glanced at Zhou Huanchun and said with a smile: "I don't know, which side does the Zhou family support?" ”

Zhou Huanchun understood this, she smiled, "The biggest party." ”

Both were vague, but each knew what the other was saying.

After sending Zhou Huanchun away, Liu Heng returned to the emperor's side to restore his life.

"Your Majesty, the people have been sent away, and they should be out of the palace at this time." Liu Heng said with a smile.

The Emperor snorted, "You...... Did you ask? ”

Liu Heng smiled, "Your Majesty, doesn't the old slave know your mind?" Naturally, I mentioned it and asked it clearly, what the county lord meant was that since the emperor liked this elixir, she was bound to get it.

It's just that she said that there is no guarantee for the medicinal properties, and you must let the imperial doctor take a look at it before you can use it. What I told me was to let the old slave mention the emperor. It seems that this Zhou Ningjun Lord still has filial piety. After all......"

He said this, and he didn't go any further.

The emperor's eyes narrowed, and he sighed and said, "But in the end, it's not a kiss." ”

Liu Heng smiled, "The old slave and the emperor are not related by blood, but the old slave feels that the emperor is like a relative of the old slave." To put it bluntly, this Zhou Ningjun Lord, if he has lived a good life since he was a child, he may not be loyal to the emperor.

Even if the emperor behaves on weekdays, at least, the lord of Zhouning County appreciates it. I also told the old slave just now that I rarely saw my father when I was a child, and I didn't have my mother's love. said that the emperor was very gentle and gave her warmth. ”

The Emperor raised his eyebrows, "Oh? Liu Heng, how do I feel, you are acting as a lobbyist for her? ”

Liu Heng smiled, "Your Majesty, how can an old slave be a lobbyist for others?" The old slave wanted to say to the emperor, if you really take advantage of this gap to take down the heart of the county lord of Zhou Ning, then you will be no different from her biological father.

After all, the Duke of Lie Guo saw the Lord of Zhou Ning very rarely, and she didn't have much impression of the Duke of Lie Guo. However, the emperor's kindness to her, even if it was superficial, she didn't see it, and she was moved.

Therefore, if the emperor can take the opportunity to let the county lord of Zhouning treat you as his own father with all his heart, then there will be more benefits to the emperor in the future. ”

The Emperor raised his eyebrows, "Oh? Advantage? What are the benefits? ”

Liu Heng smiled, "With this elixir, the emperor has already thrown a lot of money into it, right?" There is not much silver left in the treasury, and there are still armies everywhere. This army, issued for a month and detained for a month, is already quite complaining.

If this continues, the soldiers will not give their lives? If this fails, even if we have this elixir, the country is gone, and it won't work. The Zhou family is so rich, and now Zhou Lingmo is very fond of the county lord of Zhou Ning, why not take advantage of it?

As long as she is your own father, what you want, you don't need to spend money, let's raise the silver for the army and guard the homeland. Let the Zhou family support you with money, what's more, this is also what the Zhou family should do, isn't it? ”

The emperor laughed, "Liu Heng, Liu Heng, you have a lot of careful eyes!" It's bad! You're right, not only the elixir, but also my body, which has gradually recovered a lot. Sure enough, it's good that I am the king of a country, but in the end, good things are in the rivers and lakes.

We can't get in touch with the people in the rivers and lakes, not to mention, we can't tell more people about this, which causes my body to deteriorate, which is very uncomfortable.

This girl, but a stupid person has a stupid fortune, married Zhou Lingmo, met the master of Wuyue Pavilion again, and bought these medicines by chance, hehe. ”

Liu Heng smiled, "Your Majesty, the luck of fools has always been better. Because, these people have no worries, no scheming, they do whatever they want and like, and they say anything. Even if something is said and annoys people, they won't notice it.

Therefore, such people are usually taken advantage of, so good luck will be added. ”

The Emperor smiled, "Okay, then according to what you said, I can do some work on the surface." While she is pregnant, it's best to think of a way to make her a man in one fell swoop. Even if she can't have a son, let her have a son. Do you understand? ”

Liu Heng pondered for a while and said: "Your Majesty, the information from the old slave's side says that Zhou Lingmo is Zhou Lingmo's favorite, and it is a daughter, not a son. ”

The emperor was stunned, "What? Does he like his daughter? ”

Liu Heng snorted, "Son, just to pass on the ancestry, there must be one, and eventually a son will be born." However, his favorite is his daughter, and he said that he wants his daughter, like the county lord of Zhou Ning, to be carefree in this life. ”

The emperor frowned, "Another daughter slave?" ”

With a right minister, he knows what a daughter slave is. For the sake of his daughter, the right minister can do anything. Every time Liu Heng sent the information, it was that the right minister began to take revenge for his daughter, and framed King Sanwang in various ways.

If it weren't for the fact that the second prince behind him didn't allow him to do this, I'm afraid that King San would not be able to get out of the predicament so far. But it can also be seen from this point that Zhou Huanchun does treat his fourth son as his own brother.

Moreover, his four sons have a better relationship with Zhou Lingmo. Although he has been guarding for so many years, he really didn't see that these four sons wanted to compete for the throne, so he ignored Zhao Qin for the time being.

However, what should be guarded against, what should be guarded against, and there must still be information that should be available. It's what he does, and there is no need to limit it anymore.

Unlike other princes, if the range of action is larger, there will be restrictions, for example, although the holy decree has been prepared, it has not been sent to the second prince for a long time.

In order to see what kind of level the second prince has, whether it is urgent or stable, whether it can compete with other princes and so on.

If anyone wants to do something to a prince, then he must keep this son and must not break the current situation, otherwise, the threat to his position will outweigh the losses.

The emperor is now waiting for the elixir. Wuyue Pavilion Lord's medicine, he is still quite looking forward to it.

Liu Heng smiled, "Your Majesty, as long as you reward a lot, even if it is just an object, she will feel that this is a recognition." Didn't you give her a wedding gift last time? She is at home every day, just that glass hairpin. ”

The emperor frowned, "Glass hairpins?" How much is that worth? She's offered? ”

Liu Heng snorted, "The old slave has talked to the county lord of Zhou Ning many times, but he didn't tell the emperor in detail, after all, the emperor is so busy, the old slave picked out the important ones, but this is also intelligence, don't talk about it in vain."

If it weren't for knowing this information, the old slave wouldn't have persuaded the emperor like this. Also, the palace maid you sent, didn't she always carry it with her? ”

The emperor nodded, "You're right, maybe it's because she was a palace maid sent by me, so she will always be with her." ”

Liu Heng nodded, and snorted, "The old slave's understanding, this Zhou Ning County Lord, although it is a bit of that...... To put it mildly, it's the villain's face. But this person is quite affectionate and cherishes what he has now.

It's not that after getting it, she began to be greedy and disdainful, but she cherished it very much, cherished her relationship with Zhou Lingmo, cherished the fourth brother like King San, cherished the title of county lord, and most importantly, cherished a father who was the emperor. ”

The Emperor snorted, "I did see that. You're right, when the fourth child was imprisoned in Long Xuansi, she and Lingmo still managed to rescue the fourth child. You must know that I can't even interfere in this place of Long Xuansi.

The rules of this place are ironclad, and no one can get out unless he is acquitted. Of course, those Jianghu masters crossed the line. You have to find out about this, you know? ”

"The emperor can rest assured, the old slave will definitely instruct his subordinates to let them find out." Liu Heng smiled.

The emperor snorted, "Alright, call someone to come and wait, I'm hungry, get some food." ”

Liu Heng bent his body, "The old slave will arrange it, Your Majesty, you wait a minute." ”

After Zhou Huanchun returned to the Zhou Mansion, she was completely relieved.

"Coming back? Come and drink the bird's nest. As soon as Zhou Lingmo asked people to prepare, he estimated that the time was almost up.

I wanted to warm up for a while, but who knew that I just heard the next person report that his woman was back.

Zhou Huanchun smiled slightly and sat down, "Hey, I'm really tired, now that I have a child, I don't dare to eat indiscriminately when I go to the palace." Fortunately, however, important information was sent. The most important thing is that Liu Heng also has a definite answer, and the harvest is not bad. ”

Zhou Lingmo smiled and said: "Then these days, just rest well, don't toss anywhere." I heard that in a few days, the second prince will really marry Zhou Rou. ”

Zhou Huanchun sighed, "This holy decree has been delayed for so long before it was issued?" ”

Zhou Lingmo shook his head, "No, it's ready, but I haven't issued it." ”

Zhou Huanchun blinked, "Huh? Why? ”
