"Gu Shichong is good at calculation, how could he so readily agree to unconditionally share forty percent of the profits from trading with the moonfall to the prince? If this business is really done, forty percent of the profit should be a lot of money, right? ”

Reflexively returning to the man's side, Qin Yuning said with a puzzled expression, Gu Shichong's sudden generosity always made him feel that there was something wrong.

"Gu Shichong is cunning and cunning, how can he do a loss-making business, this move is of great benefit to him!" His eyes were deep and he stared at the back of the master and servant leaving, and the corners of Bei Mingchen's lips hooked slightly.

"In addition to silk and tea, there is another thing that Gu Shichong didn't say, but the most important thing is ......"

"Iron?" Qin Yuning suddenly realized that iron tools could be used to cast weapons, so it seemed that Gu Shichong's wolf ambition was already obvious.

"Yes, it's iron! Doing business with the Moonset Country, making a profit is only one of them, Gu Shichong's main purpose must be to take advantage of the opportunity to transport the goods to smuggle the ironware back! ”

"The Fen River is an important gateway for waterway transportation, and the profits given to this king are exchanged for the free passage of ships in the Fen River, this business, Gu Shichong does not lose! And ......"

His eyes sank a little deeper, and after a moment's pause, Bei Mingchen continued to analyze: "For business reasons, he can also wait for the opportunity to win over Ye Tingxuan!" Even under the pretext of talking about business, he went to this king to test this king! ”

"The prince knew that Gu Shichong was plotting against him, why did he agree to cooperate with Gu Shichong?" Qin Yuning was puzzled.

"Interests are the first priority, how can this king have a reason to refuse? What's more, the silver spent in vain is not earned in vain! This income is used to fill the treasury, which is not bad! Xiu raised his eyebrows lightly, and Bei Mingchen said disapprerovitically.

Looking at the man's appearance, he should have already made a plan for trade with the Moonfall Kingdom, so Qin Yuning changed the conversation and asked, "Then how does the prince plan to deal with this assassin matter?" ”

"You go and check the death row prisoner who has committed a lot of crimes, find someone who has good skills and a young family, and bring the secret to this king!"

It is absolutely impossible for Bei Yingchen to hand over He Muwan, but if he doesn't give an explanation, Gu Shichong will definitely not give up, and the only way to abuse the number without harming the innocent is to find a death row prisoner to pay for this assassination.

Knowing what the man meant, Qin Yuning immediately took action, but in about half an hour, he returned to the palace with an unkempt young man.

Walking into the study, Qin Yuning replied: "Lord Wang, this person's name is Er Mazi, he is a habitual thief, about a month ago, when he was robbing money, he saw that he wanted to rape and then kill a wealthy lady!" ”

"After being arrested by the government, after trial, he confessed to his crimes, and the government sentenced him to behead him after the autumn!"

"Who else is in his house?" After listening to the basic situation of the prisoner, Bei Mingchen asked lightly.

"He has both parents, his mother is still healthy, but his father is seriously ill and bedridden all the year round, in addition to his parents, he also has an eighty-year-old grandmother and a younger sister who is still in the boudoir!" Qin Yuning truthfully replied to what he had found in the file.

"What are you going to do? All the sins were committed by me alone, and have nothing to do with my family, and now that I have fallen to the law, I beg you, don't embarrass my family, they are all good people! ”

was suddenly taken away by Qin Yuning, Er Mazi was already suspicious, and now when he heard the two of them mention their relatives, he was even more panicked.

"Don't be afraid, this king has no malicious intent, this king came to you just to make a deal with you!"

"Deal? What is the deal? His eyes were full of fear, and Er Mazi said vigilantly.

"Use your life, which is no longer yours, for a lifetime of prosperity for your family!"

"What do you mean?"

Bei Mingchen said vaguely, Er Mazi didn't fully understand what he meant, but the conditions offered by the man were tempting enough for him, and he relaxed a little, Er Mazi asked further.

"Eat this!" Taking out a black pill from his arms, Qin Yuning handed it to Er Mazi and said.

"What is this?" In fact, there is no need to ask, Er Mazi also knows that this medicine must be something that can kill him.

"Poison!" His eyes were cold, and Bei Mingchen said bluntly: "This king doesn't hide it from you, today, Gu Xiang was assassinated in this king's palace, and this king needs an assassin to give Gu Xiang an explanation!" ”

"So I'm the one chosen by the prince?" Understood what the man meant, Er Mazi took over and said.

"Not bad! As long as you do what this king says, this king can ensure that your family has no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives! ”

Staring at the black pill in Qin Yuning's hand, Er Mazi frowned slightly, seeing that he was still hesitating, Bei Mingchen continued to add: "This matter shouldn't be difficult for you to choose, right?" ”

"But if you die a few days early, in exchange for the health of your relatives for a lifetime, you can also keep the whole corpse, this deal, this king thinks you are not a loss!"

"This poison ......"

Seeing Er Mazi staring thoughtfully at the pill, Qin Yuning immediately understood his concerns, so he took over and explained: "Don't worry, this medicine is extremely toxic, when the poison occurs, it will kill instantly, and there won't be much pain!" ”

"After you take it, I will count the time and send you to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Gu Shichong will not have a chance to interrogate you, so you don't have to worry about suffering from flesh and skin!"

As long as he has money, his sister can marry in style, as long as he has money, his father will have money to treat his illness, after thinking about it, Er Mazi finally made a decision, just ......

"Why should I believe you, and what if you don't do what you say after I'm dead?" Suspicious, Er Mazi asked the man in the seat.

"It's just to support your family, for this king, it's just a gesture, do you think this king has to break his promise?" Bei Mingchen raised his eyebrows and asked rhetorically.

"The prince asked me to be a scapegoat, in order to protect the real assassin, I think the prince is also a person who values love and righteousness, for the sake of my family, I will believe in the prince once!"

When the words fell, Er Mazi no longer hesitated, took the black pill in Qin Yuning's hand and put it into his mouth.

"Take him down!" Bei Mingchen commanded softly, and there was a little sigh in his tone.

Although these two pockmarks robbed and murdered people, he also had parents and family, and his death was a great joy for those who were killed by him, but for his family, it was a bolt from the blue.

Qin Yuning was about to turn around and leave when he suddenly heard the man add an order: "Send someone to send a thousand taels of silver to his family immediately!" ”
