At night, Qiantang County ordered Chen Qi to hurriedly enter the palace of Yuhang County, with a sad face, like a deep resentful woman.

Chen Xianling is also familiar with the way, and was directly led to Zhao Zongyong's study, where only Yuhang County Wang's father and son were there.

"I've seen the prince!" Chen Qi behaved very politely and respectfully in front of the noble King of Yuhang, but from the moment he entered the door, he felt that the atmosphere seemed to be a little wrong.

Zhao Zongyong nodded and said, "Chen County Order doesn't have to be polite!" During this period of the king's absence, some things have been tired! ”

"It's an honor to share the worries of the prince, I don't know why the prince came to the next official late at night?" Chen Qi was guessing that Zhao Zongyong came to him overnight, it wasn't as simple as praising himself for a few words because he hadn't seen him for a long time, right?

Zhao Zongyong said: "Naturally, there is something important to come to you, to tell you that the merchants of Jinghu South Road and Jiangnan West Road have arrived!" ”

"Huh? What does the prince mean? Chen Qi was taken aback, he had already understood seven or eight points, and he was still inquiring in a whisper, and at the same time, an ominous premonition rose in his heart.

"You also know that it is not easy for us to build this signboard with hard work, so we can't destroy it ourselves!" Zhao Zongyong sighed lightly and already showed his attitude.

Although he had already guessed, Chen Qi was still shocked and hurriedly said: "Now is an extraordinary period, the case in Fangjia Village is in the limelight, Lin Zhao is staring at it from the side, Su Shi and Shen Kuo are also coming......"

Zhao Zhongye said in a deep voice: "Is Chen County Ling afraid? ”

Chen Qi was indeed a little scared, but he naturally couldn't admit it, and said: "That's not it, it's just that you should be careful to sail a 10,000-year-old ship, whether you should avoid the limelight and act carefully, please think twice." ”

"But if the delivery is delayed, this year's business will be over, will anyone believe us in the future? It's hard to build a reputation, and it's a big hit. Zhao Zhongye was obviously unwilling.

Although Zhao Zongyong did not make a clear statement, he seemed to approve of it from his expression.

Lose your marbles!

Chen Qi's first reaction was exactly like this, Zhao Zongyong and his son are typical of asking for money and not dying!

At present, the most sensitive thing in Liangzhejiang Road is the word "salt", the emperor is staring closely, and several cronies are looking at this Hangzhou, and they dare to commit crimes against the wind? I've made a lot of money in the past few years, and I still refuse to stop?

However, it makes sense that Zhao Zongyong is not afraid, after all, he is the emperor's uncle, the descendant of Taizong, and the royal nobles, even if the case is reported, there will be no major incidents, and it is relatively safe.

As for himself, although the dynasty has a tradition of not killing scholars, if he commits a shocking crime, it is unknown what the result will be after Long Yan is furious. Even if you are sentenced to exile to an island in the South China Sea, it is better to live than to die!

How could Chen Qi not be afraid? Ever since Lin Zhao came to Hangzhou, he has been unstable in his heart. Especially the inexplicable murder case in Fangjia Village a few days ago, which evoked memories of the past, and it was even more difficult to sleep all night.

The more money you make, the more nightmares you have, to be honest, Chen Qi desperately wants to stop it as soon as possible.

But Zhao Zongyong and his son have no intention of withdrawing at all! Can you walk on your own? It's easy to get on a thief ship, it's easy to get off a thief ship, the truth that has remained unchanged through the ages!

Helpless, now Zhao Zongyong's father and son are still going to commit crimes against the wind, and it is light to be frightened.

"The reputation that has been accumulated over the years cannot be ruined!" Zhao Zongyong sighed lightly, which can be regarded as an expression of attitude. To put it mildly, in Chen Qi's heart, it was undoubtedly a huge stone falling from the sky, almost out of breath.

"Isn't the prince worried about security?" Chen Qi wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked in a low voice, he wanted to know why Zhao Zongyong was so sure. Is it hubris, or is there a foolproof plan? This will be an important criterion for his judgment, and maybe it will be a little more reassuring!

The arrival of the merchants means that the sea salt of the white flowers will be converted into a lot of gold and silver. Zhao Zongyong loves money, this is not false at all, he used to collect money to support his thirteenth brother Zhao Zongshi to ascend to the throne of the crown prince.

Later, it was because his title was lower than that of other brothers, and his heart was unbalanced. Maybe only a lot of money can be more comfortable and fill the sense of loss in my heart.

Over time, subtle changes have also taken place in the psyche. In the end, even Zhao Zongyong himself didn't know why he had such a love for money.

It is precisely for this reason that it is difficult for him to give up these merchants, and he is even more afraid of ruining his own gold-lettered signboard, so that he dares to take risks under the emperor's nose. Of course, he is not untargeted, bold, and dares to do this for a reason.

Up to now, Zhao Zongyong still doesn't think that the emperor's nephew dares to do anything to him, maybe the emperor is dissatisfied, at most it is just a warning. It's a big deal, just leave more for his kid in this year's salt tax.

Otherwise...... More than 20 princes of Pu Wangfu have made great efforts to ascend the throne for his father, and such a favor will take revenge, which will inevitably chill the hearts of uncles. Although that kid is the emperor, he doesn't dare to risk the world's condemnation like this, right?

King Pu is his most advantageous support, and the stupid thing of cutting off his arm will not happen.

What's more, there is also the Empress Dowager Gao who sits firmly in the harem, this woman is not simple, at least she will be more sensible.

The letter to the Empress Dowager had already been sent to Bianjing, so Zhao Zongyong was bold and did not feel dangerous. It is precisely because of this that he has the confidence to commit crimes against the wind!

Chen Qi was relieved to see that Zhao Zongyong was so confident and confident, but he was still beating the drum in his heart and trembling.

Zhao Zhongye instructed: "According to the common sense in the past, Chen County ordered to prepare the goods!" ”

"It's not difficult to prepare goods, the key is how to transport them?" Chen Qi said: "No matter what, you have to avoid everyone's sight." Especially those sent by the government. ”

"You don't have to worry about this, this king will figure it out!" Zhao Zongyong seemed to have a bamboo in his chest, calmly picked up the teacup, and drank it all. Then he asked, "By the way, how is that case investigated?" ”

"I've been dragging it out, but as soon as the new general verdict arrives, it will definitely not be able to be suppressed, and sooner or later Tang Qingyuan will be implicated." Chen Qi replied in a low voice, this was the biggest source of his troubles.

Zhao Zongyong said: "Don't you think this happened strangely? Didn't you think to find out who was behind the design? ”

Chen Qi shook his head and said, "If your subordinates make mistakes, you will start when you go back." ”

"By the way, where has the new Su Tong judge gone now?" Zhao Zongyong seemed to ask casually.

"When I encountered a big flood in Suzhou, I was delayed for a few days, and it is estimated that I can get there in a few days!"

"Well, I know, Su Zizhan is famous all over the world, when will this king take the wind and wash the dust for him, hum!" Zhao Zongyong's expression was gloomy, and no one knew what he was thinking.

The news that Su Shi was the general judge of Hangzhou had already come, but he had been nowhere to be found, and he waited for almost a month before he came out.

After receiving the news of Su Tong's imminent judgment, officials from all walks of life in Hangzhou, as well as many scholars and celebrities, all rushed to the dock to greet them. Lin Zhao, who is a promotion officer, naturally also went, and the demeanor of Su Dacai's son is really exciting!
