"No matter what the emperor's intentions are, it's not a bad thing for you, if it becomes a heavy blow to the queen and Mrs. Ru, anyway, haven't you and them already started a head-to-head showdown? There's nothing to be afraid of. Shen Xi just made a bold guess, "Maybe the emperor is using you to slowly eradicate the power of the He family?" ”

"It's not impossible, he must have his own thoughts." Lu Qingyi frowned slightly, "It's just that I went to Changzhou, and I am also in danger in the capital, such as Mrs., they will definitely take this opportunity to strike hard." ”

"It's not easy, find someone to keep an eye on Mrs. Ru at all times, leave Feng Sheng and Fu Chuan in the capital, find a few shopkeepers you trust, and explain to them, the point is that once something happens, notify you immediately, even if she has great ability, she can't forcibly change your person, even if she changes, when you come back, you can change it back."

Shen Xi is still very good at this, she is really suitable for business, and she arranged everything properly for Lu Qingyi.

After Lu Qingyi arranged everything, he, Chang Yi and Shen Xi immediately set off, claiming that they were all going to Changzhou to play.

Shen Xi was not idle along the way, she understood all the information of those businesses clearly, after all, she knew herself and her opponent, and she would not be defeated in a hundred battles.

After arriving in Changzhou, they went directly to the official mansion in Changzhou and lived in their mansion with peace of mind.

Where would the prefect of Changzhou think that Chang Yi would suddenly visit! Although he is not favored, he is also a prince after all, and he is still entertained with good wine and food.

During the meal, Chang Yi suddenly looked at Chang Zhifu, "Do you know what happened to this prince's visit to Changzhou this time?" ”

Chang Zhifu shook his head and smiled at Chang Yi, "It is said that the three princes came to Changzhou to play, presumably the three princes have been in the capital for a long time, and if they want to come out to breathe, they will find Changzhou." ”

Chang Yi suddenly leaned over to the prefect's side, and then laughed softly, "Do you really think that this prince is here to play?" Then you really think wrong, this prince is here this time to get together with your merchants in Changzhou, so you have to trouble the prefect to call them all over tomorrow and get together together. ”

Chang Zhifu looked at Chang Yi with a deep expression and frowned slightly, "These merchants have a bit of a big temper, and I'm afraid that they won't come." ”

"It's okay, if you don't come, you tell them that the prince will come to visit in person, but at that time, it will not be as simple as eating." Chang Yi's face was as usual, but anyone could understand the meaning of his words.

Chang Zhifu nodded with a pale face.

"Don't think about writing to tell the He family, you have to think about whether your people can enter the capital safely." Chang Yi looked at Chang Zhifu and smiled again.

Shen Xi suddenly had a new understanding of Chang Yi, who was usually gentle and elegant, and liked to talk and laugh, and she couldn't help but want to say a word of domineering, this is the temperament that a prince should have.

The sudden arrival of Chang Yi and Lu Qingyi kept the merchants and prefects of Changzhou awake at night, and they were all wondering what he was doing to form this bureau?

Some even want to donate money overnight to escape, but the world is so big, everywhere is their territory, where can they run?

Chang Yi set up the dinner in the largest restaurant in Changzhou, and he specially chartered the entire restaurant and ordered good meals to invite them to eat.

After the time came, there was still a vacant position, Chang Yi smiled slightly, "The princes who didn't come have all remembered it, and I'll go to them after dinner." ”

Chang Yi laughed, and everyone present shivered. Lewen

At this time, Lu Qingyi stood up again, his tone was cold, and his gloomy face was even more frightening, "Do you know why the third prince asked you to come to dinner today?" ”

Everyone shook their heads, saying that they didn't know, but they all had a bottom in their hearts, and it must not be a good thing.

"You are all businessmen, including myself is also a businessman, I don't know what your criteria for doing business are, but in my case, the first thing to do business is to call conscience, and then to make money, if the conscience is gone, what else to make money?" Lu Qingyi said and scolded again, "It's the Lu family's industry that stands up." ”

The merchants present were all frightened by Lu Qingyi's move, and they shook their heads one after another, but no one was willing to stand up.

"Don't think I won't know who you are until you don't get up." Lu Qingyi's eyes were like wolves, staring at everyone motionless.

As soon as Lu Qingyi said this, many people stood up, and they didn't know what Lu Qingyi was going to do, so they were also very nervous.

"You belong to the Lu family's industry, I don't know who the Lu family is docking with you, and who gave you the courage to do these things, but since I am here, you all have to honestly hand over the property to me." Lu Qingyi's words were sharp, like a devil from hell.

"Why should it be in your hands? It's all our hard-earned earnings. Eventually, some people were not convinced and began to refute it.

"It's your hard work, but does the industry belong to the Lu family? Since it is, is there any problem with handing it over to me, the eldest young master of the Lu family? If you haven't done anything sorry for the Lu family, after the matter is clarified, all the property will be returned, and I don't want to swallow anything from you. ”

Lu Qingyi knew that the people here were all connected with Mrs. Ru, and they would definitely not hand it over to him so easily.

"If Madame doesn't come, no one in our industry will want to move." Another person was anxious, "You say that we are corrupt, and that we make false accounts, must it be true?" Everything has to be proven. ”

Lu Qingyi just smiled, "You all want evidence, don't you?" The day after tomorrow, at the same time and in the same place, I will tell you what the evidence is. ”

Originally, the purpose of today's banquet was just to know who the people who didn't come, and most of the people who didn't come had a very strong background, otherwise they wouldn't dare to be disrespectful to the prince even if they did a big business.

After the meal, those merchants who did not go to the banquet received the news that they were going to the government to have a cup of tea, and they naturally refused to go, and scolded the officers and soldiers, but Lu Qingyi said that if they refused to come, they would break their legs and just carry them over.

So those officers and soldiers also used ruthlessly.

After arriving at the yamen, some of those people had blue noses and swollen faces, and some of their legs were lame, but Shen Xi smiled happily when he saw it, "If you are disobedient, you should be beaten." ”

"Third prince, what are you selling?" Someone recognized Chang Yi at a glance and asked directly.

"It doesn't matter what we sell." The corners of Lu Qingyi's mouth curled into a smile, and said, "Now this is the yamen, and there is still a prince standing in front of you, don't you all kneel?" No humility at all? Come to think of it, royal prestige is not worthy of respect in your eyes, is it? ”

"It's not that we don't respect the three princes, let alone the emperor, but you beat us up for no reason and arrested here, isn't there a little explanation?" Someone said indignantly.

Those who dare to speak like this are mostly backed by queens.
