Chapter 31 Three Questions

The Zheng Mansion in Yixian County, the prosperity of the past is gone, leaving an empty courtyard alone, and the servants who are running back and forth do not see the leisurely faces. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info five steps and a post, ten steps and a sentry, now there is a big man living here.

The sky is full of stars, the hour is past three watches, and the main house of the Zheng Mansion is still lit up, and the bright and flickering air dead wind lamp is like a small sun, illuminating the whole house through an expensive crystal wall.

A young man in his early twenties, lying lazily on a lazy chair, his hand brushing the fruit plate on the table from time to time, and his eyes never took off the account book in his hand.

"A good Zhao Zheng, he can make a profit of 10,000 gold in just one month, and Tao Zhugong is only like this when he is alive."

The fingers dipped lightly in Dan's lips, and the thin lips were like a steel knife scraping bones, and every time he flipped through an account book, it meant that the Zheng Mansion's industry fell into the bag.

But if you look carefully at the account book in his hand, it is not the independent account book of the Zheng Mansion, but the general account of many joint ventures such as Anyi Rujia.

"Yes, yes, this stove is cleverly designed to drain the carbon toxin, and the rest of the temperature is just right for heating. And to be able to think of iron-making, it is really a genius. ”

A smile crossed the corner of his lips as he spoke, this kind of treasure does not know how to treasure, and it is up to him to do it since it is in his own hands.

"Someone come to return the account books, remember not to conflict with Dongfang Valley, it will ruin the reputation of my Zheng royal family."

Merchants are the most important in business, so the Zheng Mansion also has a copy of the technical secrets of the joint venture, but the reputation of the heavy weapons involving the salt and iron country is a child's play. When the servant carried the book, the top one was noticeably thinner.

The stars are dotted, the bright moon is sneaking, and the noisy call of the summer cicada is in the east gate of Yixian County, and a few acquaintances came to the first person, and without saying a word, he rushed straight to the Zheng Mansion, and walked in with his feet.

"Presumptuous, Prince Po of Zheng Guo is staying here, who dares to go straight ahead?"

The man was not afraid, and his footsteps did not stop, and he had already stepped on the steps, and the guard watched nervously as he took his sword to cut.

"Whoosh~"

There was a hint of murder in the sound of the breaking wind, and the feathered arrow pierced the guard's arm, and then a steel knife rested on his neck.

"I am a guard of the Zheng State Forbidden Palace, a sergeant, are you responsible for killing me?"

The man with the knife kicked him in the crook of the leg, and the blade slashed through his neck.

"Lord, let me kill this bird, and then let's go in and slaughter the bird prince."

The person with the knife is the head of the fish, and the leader is naturally Zhao Zheng.

Zhao Zhengdao: "Let this dog go, follow me to talk to his master." ”

There was no more silence in the courtyard just now, and Zheng Guo's guards gathered around with knives and looked nervously at the Protector Army entering the mansion. There were only fifty of them, and the reason why they had come so far was nothing more than the fear of the common people for the nobility, and once this layer of window paper was broken, it was a panicked cringe at this time.

"Homeinn Dong Zhao is here, I heard that the Zheng Mansion is going to withdraw its investment, so I came down to ask."

Zhao Zheng's tone was leisurely, as if the heavily armed guards behind him did not exist, and they were here to discuss business.

"Bang Bang Bang"

A person walked out of the inner hall, dressed in a brocade robe, with a crown hanging down, and said with a smile: "I heard that Zhao Diandong's style is extraordinary, and I really admired it when I saw it today." ”

He is Zheng Po, the prince of Zheng Guo, who was originally a descendant of the Zheng family with seven surnames, and more than 100 years ago, the Zhou family reverted to Zheng Guo, and his grandfather exchanged ten carts of treasures for the throne.

Perhaps it is because of the restoration of the country, the Zheng royal family is not an ordinary greedy for money, and the high-profit industries of salt and iron are all state-run, and a trading company is built to support commercial development.

It's a pity that disasters often arise within the walls, and the other branch could have become a royal family, but who would have expected that they would become nobles without taking out ten carts of treasure for a while.

So they were even more greedy for money, and sent their family children and grandchildren to do business everywhere, wanting to buy Zheng Guo back. Unexpectedly, the world is impermanent, and the winner-takes-all Warring States era, one wrong step, one wrong step, and finally they were eaten by Zheng Po's branch, and the industry under their name was also taken over.

"It's the same thing, I also heard that the Zheng royal family is the most greedy for money, and today I saw that it was the case."

Zheng Podeng's face darkened, and he said that he would not hit people in the face.

Zhao Zheng continued: "When I wanted to come to Zheng Mansion in the past, one step at a time, one view at ten steps, the best potted plant for the head of the Zheng Mansion, and it was also known to the celebrities of Quanyi County, but it was empty when I came in today, and it is estimated that they all turned into wealth and flowed to the treasury of Zheng State." ”

The Baomin Army laughed here, the supreme of a dignified aristocratic country would be reduced to selling potted plants, Zheng Po's face was so dark that he could almost drip water, and said coldly: "Zhao Zheng, what do you mean, insult my Zheng Wang family." ”

"That's exactly what I mean."

"Kill him."

Zheng Guo's guards hesitated for a long time, and finally did not carry out the order, fifty people against one hundred, or the field army, they felt that keeping a low profile was the king.

Zheng Po's aristocratic demeanor was shattered by the cowardice of his subordinates, and he couldn't help but remember that he had entered the Zheng Mansion a few days ago by virtue of the Zhou Forbidden Army, and now that they are gone, I am afraid that it will not be easy to use the fox.

Zhao Zheng sneered a few times and said, "I'll ask you three questions, and if you can answer them, I'll retreat..."

"What if this palace can't answer?"

Zheng Po shook his head, and the ribbon fluttered, very chic.

Zhao Zheng snorted coldly: "Waste usually dies. ”

"Huh~~"

Wei Huo didn't need to be instructed, he took the lead in drawing his sword and stepped forward, and the bright Tang knife shone in front of Zheng Po.

"I'm Prince Zheng, you dare to kill me!"

Zheng Po moved out the last killer move, and a few days ago, Dongfang Valley was defeated because of this, and he was willing to sacrifice the key to the account room, so that he could have a look at the account books of the Zheng Mansion.

It's a pity that he miscalculated this time, Zhao Zheng not only won't be afraid of his aristocratic status, but may do something because of it.

"Kill him."

The guards hunted like wolves and surrounded Zheng Po, and it was only then that he realized how disobedient Zhao Zheng was. During the Warring States period, the general of a country who was captured was still treated preferentially, and he would kill him wherever he said he would.

Death shrouded Zheng Po, and he finally relented: "Don't do it, I know about Princess Hongluan." ”

"Say"

Zheng Po swallowed his saliva, scolding Zhao Zheng in his heart, Nuo Nuo still told the matter in 1510 for a long time.

Chunniang, that is, the princess of Hongluan, Ying Qi, was executed because her mother intended to assassinate Zhou Tianzi, and she was implicated and exiled outside the palace. Later, the king of Zhou found out that her mother was wronged, and his shame and pity increased day by day, so he asked the crown prince Ji Zhan to take her back when he lent him to Yan Guo.

The whole thing made sense, an old father took his wandering daughter back to the palace to enjoy her happiness. Observing Zheng Po's expression, there was no trace of lying, but Zhao Zheng just doubted the authenticity of this matter, and the reason why Chunniang said that she was in exile was vague, so there was no need to conceal this reason.

Like the male protagonist in many reasoning dramas, Zhao Zheng held his chin and said: "There must be something hidden here." ”

"Well, what I said is true."

Zheng Po screamed, and it was Wei Huo who put a knife on his neck.

"He didn't lie, but Prince Zhou didn't tell him the truth."

Zhao Zheng pressed Wei Huo's knife, patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, the first question is over, and the second one I ask you where did Zheng Sleeve be taken by you?" ”

"It's... This is a family matter in my clan, so Zhao Gongzi doesn't need to know about it. ”

Zhao Zheng nodded.

Zheng Po was shocked that he actually put the knife back again.

Zhao Zheng smiled and said, "Now you can talk about it." ”

"This bastard."

Zheng Po scolded in his heart, still honestly talking about how he used the power of the Zhou family to break up Zheng Sleeve's resistance, and how he used the patriarch's order to force Zheng Sleeve's father and daughter to give up their family property and return to Zheng Guo.

"Now you can take the knife off, I promise you'll be honest with the third question."

"No, that's fine."

Zhao Zheng smiled and was about to ask the third question, when his footsteps moved behind him, and he shouted: "Zhao Zheng, you are crazy, hurry up and put down your blade." ”
