"Ladies and gentlemen, please. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 At this time, Liu Ji appeared and greeted the remaining merchant owners.

Most of the people around the shop and the market dispersed, although everyone was still talking about the lack of silver with Yusheng, but at least everyone put down more than half of their hearts, regardless of the lack of silver, at least the capital here is not refused, everyone lined up for an afternoon, and the people who watched and Yusheng kept moving silver out throughout the afternoon, and this heart was gradually put down.

Liu Ji came out at this time, the timing was just right, he smiled and arched his hand to everyone, and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, you originally came to pick up the silver like this, no matter what, we also have to pay the silver clearly, but you see, this day is dark, our silver vault is locked at a fixed hour every day, and then there is a special person to check and count, and then open the warehouse again the next day, check it clearly and then open the warehouse and release the silver, the amount and time of daily entry and exit are regular, you are in a hurry to take the silver, in the heart is also clear, But even if you make an exception to give silver, it's not safe to walk with a big stick of silver after dark, isn't it? Besides, there will be a curfew in a little while. If you are not at ease, you can find a place to live on Zhengyangmen Street, and you can send someone to keep an eye on here, we and a few shopkeepers of Yusheng will not leave tonight, just stay in the store, tomorrow it will be time to open the silver warehouse, everyone will take the silver with the silver ticket, can you? ”

Everyone looked at Shi Congbin silently, today's matter, Shi Congbin is actually the person who picks the lead, his eight thousand taels have already been paid, but Shi Congbin did not leave, but encouraged everyone to continue to withdraw silver, at this time he also felt embarrassed, reasonable, and there was no way to persevere.

At this time, there was the sound of eating and drinking outside, and then everyone saw a sedan chair parked at the door of He Yusheng, and then saw a young eunuch wearing a black three-mountain hat stepping off the sedan chair and hurriedly entering the store.

"Grandpa Cao." Liu Ji was a little surprised, but he hurriedly gave it up.

"Don't gossip." Cao Huachun nodded, and said with a little embarrassment on his face: "We believe that there are five thousand silver in the existence of the royal palace, and His Royal Highness ordered our family to come and mention it immediately." ”

"Father-in-law," Liu Ji said helplessly: "The five thousand taels are explained by the palace to be exchanged for copper coins, and it is agreed to be paid next month. ”

"There's no way." Cao Huachun grimaced, shook his head and said: "This is His Royal Highness's personal decree, and it is very strict, our family has no choice!" ”

Liu Ji felt speechless for a while, the silver of King Xin was indeed used to exchange for copper coins, and it was indeed five thousand taels, but two thousand five hundred of them were the festival of Yusheng's statement, and the palace of Xinwang was only half of the silver, even if this half was a temporary debt, the silver ticket was taken away first, and Yusheng did not want to offend His Royal Highness King Xin, who was very small-minded, for this small amount of money again, but this prince actually took the silver ticket that day and ran to ask for money, this face is really too big.

Of course, Cao Huachun also understood Liu Ji's feelings, and he himself was a little embarrassed, but eunuchs have always acted in a way that has never been cheeky and tricky, and this matter is clear that King Xin wants to take the opportunity to take revenge and Yusheng, so he can only continue to be cheeky.

And the last time he gave gifts and borrowed money, Cao Huachun played a very bad role in it, and more than half of King Xin's anger was caused by him, and of course he had to do his best on this errand.

"Of course five thousand taels must be offered, do you have a silver ticket?" Liu Ji suppressed his anger and said: "But Gonggong Cao is so deceitful, he and Yusheng will never take the royal mansion in the future." ”

Cao Huachun was silent with a straight face, Liu Ji ordered someone to go to the back house to move the silver taels, and the number of one hundred ingots of silver was clear, and it was handed over to the people brought by Cao Huachun.

"Let's take our leave." Cao Huachun said embarrassedly: "I wish to have a prosperous business with Yusheng." ”

Liu Ji sneered and said nothing, usually Cao Huachun came, and when he left, Liu Ji always had to give a silver ingot, not to let this old man run in vain, today the two sides are torn faces, of course Liu Ji will not send silver again.

After Cao Huachun left, all the other businessmen left, and after the guys got on the door panel, Liu Ji said to Wang Faxiang and Li Guobin worriedly: "This disaster is not small. ”

Li Guobin paused and said: "Five thousand silver is a trivial matter, we can still survive the first few days according to the original plan." But King Xin's doing this is undoubtedly to show his dissatisfaction with us and Yusheng, in this way, the nobles of the capital and we have money exchanges, and most of them will come to settle tomorrow and tomorrow, which is really a lot of trouble! ”

The status of King Xin has been higher than a year a year, and the reason is simple, although the Emperor of the Apocalypse is still only a young man in his twenties, the emperor has been on the throne for nearly five years, and no prince has survived for so long, the previous two princes have died young, and the queens and concubines of the harem have completely lost their movement in the past two years, Empress Zhang is very virtuous, and has a very good reputation among the officials and people in the court, and people are privately rumored that Wei Zhongxian and the Hakka clan bullied the queen in the harem, and even Wei and Ke secretly killed the prince, even caused Empress Zhang to have several miscarriages, and even never gave birth to a prince.

There is a lot of knowledge in this rumor, although it is caused by the fact that the people have always had a bad opinion of eunuchs, I am afraid that more will fall on Wang Wenyan and other Donglin party members.

"It's fine." Wang Faxiang said very calmly: "The military secretary must have arrangements, don't worry." ”

……

Cao Huachun took the silver and turned all the way back to the palace of the king.

This time the errand was in vain, and King Xin knew that it was a silver ticket of five thousand taels, and it was impossible to be full.

It was dark, but most of the people around the palace were inhabited by rich and noble families, mostly deep mansions, and all the houses along the way were brightly lit, which was very different from those small people's homes that went to bed after dark.

There was a wind lantern hanging outside the palace of King Xin, and after Cao Huachun entered the mansion, several people were waiting with silk lanterns, and when they saw him come in, they immediately took him to a side hall.

King Shin hadn't slept yet, and his face looked leisurely and pleasant, and he was in a good mood.

Because the rules of the palace dinner are the same as those in the palace, dinner will be opened at about four o'clock in the afternoon, before the evening, King Xin will be accustomed to using some delicate and delicate snacks, mostly in the palace dim sum style, King Xin's great-grandfather likes to eat fruit cakes, his grandfather is a drinker, and there is no special hobby in dim sum, his father Emperor Guangzong likes to eat tiger eye candy, his brother Emperor Tianqi likes to eat chowder dishes, and King Xin likes to eat delicate desserts, with carefully boiled bird's nest porridge, which is supreme delicacy in the eyes of King Xin.

It's just that the expenses of the Xinwang Mansion are insufficient, and the pile in front of him looks inconspicuous, at least dozens of taels of silver, even if he is respected by the prince, the Xinwang can't often enjoy it.

Today's happy mood of King Xin is not for no reason, Wang Wenyan visited before, in addition to bringing the news of He Yusheng, but also revealed the news that the Donglin Party must drive out the eunuch party.

For King Xin, his good impression of the Donglin Party is very obvious, of course, he does not appreciate Wang Wenyan's kind of people, this tiny person has no merit, King Xin has never trusted this kind of person, and he is suspicious by nature, he felt happy when he first saw Wang Wenyan, after all, the courtiers of the outer court also respected him very much, and later he suspected that this person wanted to use himself, and regarded himself as a child, for which King Xin felt a little humiliated, but in comparison, After all, King Xin had a very good impression of the benevolent gentlemen of the Donglin Party, which made him very willing to forgive Wang Wenyan's boldness, and as for reporting to the imperial brother about meeting the foreign ministers tonight, King Xin had no intention of doing so.

Although the factory guard is responsible for monitoring the hundred officials of the Beijing Division, but people know that the rules of the factory guard are wasted, almost useless, and even the group of literati of the Donglin Party can't look down on it, not to mention that King Xin is a pro-domain mansion after all, Wei Zhongxian knows the emperor's brotherhood with King Xin, and the factory guard will put a few people far away from the periphery of King Xin's mansion at most, and there will never be internal response or close surveillance, Wang Wenyan also dared to come to the door only after seeing this, otherwise it would be discovered by the eunuch party, and it would be a big trouble.

"The slave has seen His Highness."

Cao Huachun hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to the king.

"Oh, Cao accompanies you." King Xin put down the spoon, and the white melon seeds were full of smiles...... After all, King Shin is still just a teenager, and it is difficult to hide his true emotions.

King Xin said casually: "How's the matter going?" ”

Cao Huachun said respectfully: "It has been done, the silver will be retrieved, and it will be put into the palace treasury in a while." ”

Those who believed in the king's poverty and fear immediately rejoiced when they heard the words.

The 5,000 silver was still Wang Wenyan's idea for him, which was equivalent to snatching it back from He Yusheng's hand...... The matter is obvious, if He Yusheng denies it on the spot, or even quarrels with Cao Huachun Dingniu, as soon as the matter spreads, people will not say that the palace is in danger, but will only say that He Yusheng is indeed a problem with the silver, and even the silver deposit of the palace will be relied on!

"Very good!" King Xin's eyebrows stretched and said: "Cao Ban takes fifty taels, and it is a lonely reward for you." ”

Cao Huachun looked grateful, kowtowed and said: "Thank Your Highness for the reward, but the slaves and maids have no place for money, food and accommodation are in the palace, and the silver is still reserved for His Highness to reward others." ”

"Take the reward." King Xin was really rare and generous tonight, and after someone took the silver, he saw Cao Huachun take it, so he smiled again: "What is the situation with Yusheng?" ”

"There are a lot of people running on it." Cao Huachun said: "The people of the Five Cities Terracotta Division are maintaining order outside, there are too many people, and they are afraid that something will happen. ”

"Hmph." King Xin snorted coldly and said, "Such a bad businessman, it is very important to ask the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division to seal it and deal with their crimes!" ”

"Your Highness is talking about ......," Cao Huachun agreed against his will.

"After all, this Wang Wenyan still has the ability." King Xin muttered again: "Just from a few words, it is analyzed that Heyusheng is not enough to save silver, with this trick, if the snake is beaten on the seven inches, the merchant has a bad reputation, how to do business in the future?" And Yusheng is a businessman, he makes money from his own Ming, but he hides deep misdeeds in his heart, and he is also the emperor's brother and benevolent, if he had changed me, he would have ...... long ago"

Although he was in his mansion and in front of a group of confidants, King Xin still kept his mouth shut and did not continue, but the look of indignation on his face was very obvious.
