Wuxian understood very well why Xing Tianze did this, since those grain stores had a connection with the Xue family, then they must be Schrödinger's people.

Therefore, if you only need to exert coercion, you will definitely be able to dig out the flaws of the Xue family.

As the so-called hundred secrets will eventually be sparse, since the Xue family has grain and grass to sell, it means that this disaster is completely manipulated by them behind the scenes.

As long as the Xue family, a big fish that has been precipitated underwater, can be caught, this drought can be easily resolved, and even the food for the march is enough.

But at present, Xing Tianze is most worried about the problem of time, the 450,000 army has been assembled, and three days later will be the auspicious day of the zodiac, when the emperor will personally set up a handsome altar on the school field to bid farewell to the soldiers of the three armies who went to the front.

Xing Tianze didn't have much to worry about this battle, although Lin Yan was a young handsome talent in Fuyang Kingdom, he was not the opponent of the Fifth Prince and Traceless.

It's just that if the Xue family is not eradicated as soon as possible, Xing Tianze will inevitably have endless worries, since Schrödinger has already dared to perform something as rebellious as making money in drought, what else does he dare not do?

As the saying goes, those who are barefoot are not afraid of wearing shoes, and if the Xue family, who has mastered the intelligence network for so many years, fights back with all their might, it will definitely be a worrying thing.

Half an hour later, more than ten men in their forties and fifties came to the Five Princes' Mansion, and they were all the owners of grain stores that still had grain stores for sale in the grain market today, but judging from the information given by Murong Yu, they were all people from the Xue family who secretly placed them in the capital.

When they saw Xing Tianze with a gloomy face on the first seat, these grain store owners looked a little at a loss, even in the Xue family, they were just subordinates, the shadow of a famous tree.

The prestige of the five princes is well known to passers-by in the entire Xingzhao Kingdom, and after getting along with each other at such a close distance, these people can clearly feel the majesty emanating from Xing Tianze's side, and they are almost out of breath when they are oppressed.

After glancing coldly at this group of people, the expression in Xing Tianze's eyes became even colder: "You are really the good people of my criminal Zhao country, taking advantage of the severe drought in Nanjun County, you actually wantonly raised the price of grain, and wanted to make a fortune in the country and rare ill-gotten gains?" ”

Xing Tianze's tone was mixed with a very strong threat, and the faces of more than a dozen grain store owners turned white in an instant.

One of them finally mustered up the courage to stand up, and first bowed respectfully to Xing Tianze before speaking: "Lord Wang Mingjian, we are all businessmen, and you should understand the truth that you don't run a soldier and don't do business." ”

Just when this person's words landed, Xing Tianze slapped the table fiercely: "I don't know if you are not afraid, you dare to use words to offend this king?" Pull it out, and the weight is fifty large boards. ”

At this moment, two guards immediately walked into the front hall, ignoring this man's plea for mercy, and pulled him out directly by the shoulder.

When the rest of the grain store owners saw this, their whole bodies began to tremble due to the fear in their hearts, and cold sweat the size of beans dripped down their foreheads.

"I think you all know that the enemy army of Fuyang Kingdom is coming to attack, and this king will lead his troops to the front line in a few days." Xing Tianze said coldly: "As the so-called soldiers and horses go first before the grain and grass are moved, why this king called you here today, I think you should all know very well. ”

Traceless gaze scanned back and forth between them, and suddenly he jerked the teacup off the table, and his heart struck one of them in the chest.

The man fell directly to the ground and let out a painful wail, and it was just like this that he broke two of his ribs without a trace.

Then he walked quickly to this person and squatted down, and took out a token from his arms, which was engraved with a boxy Xue character, which was officially the signature of the Xue family.

"Where did this thing come from? Can you explain it to me? Traceless looked at the token carefully, a look of determination flashing in his eyes.

As soon as these people stepped into the front hall, their traceless eyes looked back and forth on them carefully, but whether it was the person who was heavily punished by fifty boards before, or Xing Tianze's coercion, except for this person, everyone else was pale and broke out in a cold sweat, and some couldn't help but tremble.

Only the expression on this person's face did not change from beginning to end, and he deliberately avoided Xing Tianze's scrutinizing gaze.

In addition, the most noteworthy thing is that in less than half an hour, this person actually inadvertently touched his chest four times with his hand, and this person had a calloon on his mouth, and his breathing was calm and extremely even.

Therefore, without a trace, he directly concluded that this person was a person who practiced martial arts with a sword, but his internal skills were not very solid.

"The prince spares his life, the traceless son spares his life, the villain really doesn't know anything." The man pressed his chest, a look of fear on his face.

"I didn't even say my name, how do you know my name is Traceless?" A hint of banter appeared on Traceless' face.

"Answer the king's question honestly, if you don't get it, the king promises that you won't be able to leave the palace upright." Xing Tianze spoke coldly again.

"Lord Wang, you just spare the villain, now that the treasury is short of food, the villain is just doing things for others." The man's heart was already filled with fear.

However, the man's words are enough to prove his identity, and even Xing Tianze only knew about the specific situation of the treasury today, where did this person know about it?

If the Xue family naturally makes sense, if the family, as the owner of the intelligence network, doesn't even know the situation of the treasury, then Schrödinger can really return to his hometown.

Moreover, Xing Tianze also dared to guarantee that the matter of these people coming to the Five Princes' Mansion would be known to the Xue family in less than two hours at most, so Xue Dinger would definitely be prepared.

As long as there is any disturbance in the Xue family, then they will definitely leave indelible traces, and for Xing Tianze, there is a lot of room for him to send someone to investigate.

At the same time, in the imperial garden in the palace, the emperor sat alone in the pavilion and frowned, the situation of the treasury was the dark disease in his heart.

Probably no one would have thought that the dignified treasury of the Xingzhao Empire had actually been depleted, and if there was no income to replenish, the imperial court would definitely be unable to support it alone.

And what worries the emperor the most is the matter of this campaign, if there is not enough grain and grass to come out, Xing Tianze will definitely investigate clearly.

Although he strictly ordered several officials in charge of the treasury not to divulge the depletion of money and grain, paper could never contain fire.

When the treasury is only made public to the world, it will inevitably attract the shock of the Manchu Dynasty, and the number of officials who support him will decrease more and more, and everyone will think that he is a mediocre king, on the contrary, Xing Tianze's reputation will become wise and martial in their eyes.

Emperor Liangjiu sighed deeply, he had already sent someone to Shuzhong to dispatch grain, at this time he only hoped that this batch of grain and grass could reach the capital within three days.
