Chapter 220: Conspiracy? Plot against?
Get into a jam?
Zhao Shan'er hadn't met such a person yet, so she didn't hear what the other party meant, but stood at the door of the restaurant and hesitated between the seller outside.
But just because she doesn't know doesn't mean others don't know!
In particular, the person who accompanied Zhao Shan'er was still the prince, Zhao Zilin.
When the prince heard this, he sneered, took a step forward, and snorted coldly at the other party.
"Can't eat and walk around? Lonely, this son wants to see, after I bought it, how can I not eat and walk around. ”
After saying that, he turned directly to the side and greeted him.
"Come on, buy me all the meat buns and roast duck in their hands for my son. I want to see what the shopkeeper of this restaurant can do to make me unable to eat, so I will go around! ”
As soon as he said this, many people next to him directly gathered around him.
Recently, there have been a lot of low-cost meat buns and roast duck on the street, as well as some other foods, and the people have naturally bought a lot of them when they see that the prices are low and delicious.
At first, these stores didn't react, and they didn't pay attention to them at all, and it wasn't until they found out that business had completely failed recently, and they became anxious.
It's just that the price they sell is not as low as others, and the taste is not as good as others, so naturally they can't compete with others, so they began to desperately think of other ways, such as threatening others.
It's just that what they were invincible before kicked to the iron plate this time.
"Hmph, I'll see who dares to move. Do you know who is standing behind our restaurant? This is a restaurant of a member of the imperial court, can you afford to provoke it? ”
A big deal?
There seemed to be only a few first-class officials in the court, and the prince sneered and raised his eyebrows to ask.
"Oh? Really? Which one of the top players still opened a restaurant? How did I not know? ”
When the shopkeeper of the restaurant heard this, he frowned and glanced up and down at the prince and Zhao Shan'er, faintly puzzled, after all, Zhao Shan'er didn't show it just now, but the prince's extravagance was inevitable.
He was now a little apprehensive and wanted to back down, arching his hand towards the crown prince.
"Forgive me for being clumsy, may I ask ...... you are this son?"
No matter how sluggish Zhao Shan'er was before, she found out what this shopkeeper meant, but at this time, she sneered.
"Who do you care who we are? Isn't my brother asking you? Who is your master? Wasn't it still very powerful just now? You who open a restaurant, you still dare to buy and sell. Isn't there a royal law? ”
The shopkeeper's heart is also angry, recently there are obviously people targeting their own shops, everything their shops sell, there must be people outside to sell, and the price is low, the things are good.
At first, they really didn't take it seriously, but when they were at their door, they panicked.
But people don't have a store, and they are still casual, so you don't let people here, okay, change places and continue.
They changed a lot of ways to deal with them, but without exception, they were all dodged by them, so they could only let the shopkeeper guard them, as long as people came, they would coerce and lure, it would be better to pull back their own restaurant, and if they couldn't pull them away, they would have to scare them away, and they couldn't let them sell if they didn't sell for money.
"Hmph, since you don't buy food, let's take a walk, don't stand here and be an eyesore. Xiao Er, send off. ”
The shopkeeper didn't want to entangle with them, so he turned and left.
Zhao Shan'er was angry and wanted to catch up, but was stopped by the prince with his hand.
"Big brother, why are you stopping me? You didn't see him, it's just too much! This is simply bullying, this is still us, what should the people do? Maybe there is a bitterness that you can't say! ”
When the melon-eating crowd on the side heard this, they all spoke to Zhao Shan'er.
"Two little boys, you better hurry up, this one, but the restaurant of the first member of the court, that Lord Hu, you should know, right?"
Lord Hu?
Who's that?
Zhao Shan'er couldn't help but turn her head to look at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, she didn't know, her imperial brother should know, right?
Sure enough, when the prince mentioned Lord Hu, his eyes flashed, and he had a plan in his heart.
It turned out to be him!
"Shan'er, aren't you hungry? How about my brother inviting you to dinner? ”
Zhao Shan'er didn't know what her imperial brother was doing here, but she nodded happily, but after turning her head and seeing the meat buns and roast duck in the hands of the guards behind her, she couldn't help but baffle.
"Good! It's just, we just bought so many meat buns and roast duck, what should we do? ”
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince turned his head to look at the people around him who had just persuaded them to leave, and he kept some buns and a few roast ducks for himself, and gave them all the other things, which was regarded as repaying them for the kindness they had just worried about.
They turned around and went into a nearby restaurant, but the business was not affected in any way, but was still overcrowded.
"Xiao Er, what's going on with the restaurant opposite you? Have you offended someone? ”
After ordering the food, the prince stopped Xiao Er, threw the other party a piece of silver, and raised his eyebrows to ask.
Xiao Er subconsciously took his teeth and gritted it, then he smiled, and after bowing his hand to the prince and Zhao Shan'er, he spoke.
"Who's to say it isn't? Bad luck! In the past, they relied on the support of Master Hu behind their backs, and they didn't take us seriously at all. But a few days ago, you didn't know that the son of Master Hu's family was arrested and imprisoned, and he has not been released until now. ”
As he spoke, Xiao Er also turned his head to look behind him, approached the prince, lowered his voice, and said in a sly manner.
"I heard that I offended King Qingyang. Even the four princes were also affected. ”
What the? The Four Princes? Isn't that the fourth brother?
Zhao Shan'er looked at each other with a blank expression, her brows furrowed.
"What does this have to do with the fourth brother, no, the fourth prince? Could it be that Master Hu's son-in-law brother is on an errand under the fourth prince? ”
Xiao Er shook his head.
"No, no, no! Just that gentleman, what can he do to go to the fourth prince on an errand? He just has a good father and a good sister. Relying on the power of his father and the four princesses, he used to bully men and women, and bullied the market, but now after being arrested, he is very happy. ”
Zhao Shan'er gasped.
That Master Hu is the father of the fourth sister-in-law?
Zhao Shan'er couldn't help but turn her head to look at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince beside her, but saw that the other party was already smiling knowingly.
As expected.
He waved his hand at Xiao Er, asking people to step back, and then looked at Zhao Shan'er.
"You're right, it's your fourth sister-in-law's maiden family. Presumably Shan'er also knows that her father has been angry with the four recently, right? ”
Zhao Shan'er nodded, her eyes still blank.
Could it be that it has something to do with this?
The crown prince became more and more curious about Zhongli, who he had never come into contact with, who dared to do something to the princess's maiden family at this juncture?
Even if she was wronged in that matter, so what?
He was a member of the imperial court, and Zhongli was just a farmer and landlord.
"Hehe, that Zhong Gongzi of yours, he is not a big person, but he is quite bold! Eat quickly, wait until you finish eating, and Lone will meet him! ”
At this time, Zhongli was in the house in a good mood to teach the cooks in the house to study new food.
When Zhao Shan'er and the others passed, Zhongli was holding a black box and didn't know what he was doing.
"Young Master Zhong, take the liberty of disturbing!"
Zhao Shan'er looked at Zhongli and spoke softly, her cheeks crimson made the prince exclaim that the woman was not left.
"What do you think is presumptuous? The Seventh Princess and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came to the Humble House, which was a blessing for Zhongli. ”
The crown prince raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhongli with some surprise.
"Oh? You just said the prince? Do you know Lonely? ”
The prince originally wanted to pay a private visit to Weifu, but who knows, Zhongli found out his identity, and he suddenly became curious.
After Zhongli asked for peace, he straightened up and looked at the prince with a smile.
"Originally, the grass people didn't dare to recognize each other. It's just that he can be with the Seventh Princess, and he has an extraordinary demeanor and bearing, and his age is just right, so naturally there is only His Royal Highness the Crown Prince alone! ”
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhongli with a sneer.
"You've seen the third and the fourth, so you know it's not them, but why isn't it the second?"
Dick?
Zhongli narrowed his eyes and shook his head at the prince with a smile.
"Forgive the grass people, I heard that the second prince likes to chant poetry and paint, and he naturally has extravagance, and he must also be full of books, not as domineering as His Royal Highness the Prince."
As if hearing something funny, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince laughed, reached out and patted Zhongli's shoulder, and bowed his head with satisfaction.
"Haha, good! is worthy of the person who is the seventh child of our family. It's just Zhongli, I heard that a few days ago, you had some unpleasant trouble with the son-in-law of Lord Hu's family? ”
Zhong Li's head is neither humble nor arrogant, and there is no intention of evasion.
"Yes, Hu Gongzi is not a good thing, and it is not necessary to be easily misled by some people."
"So, why don't you let Gu say a favor and let Hu Gongzi go back to reunite with his family?"
The prince looked at Zhongli with a smile.
Zhongli's face remained unchanged, and he knelt directly on one knee to the ground and explained to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
"If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince insists on this, Zhongli will not dare to disobey. But the country has national laws, and the family has family rules, whether it is Hu Gongzi who listens to slander or beats people on the street, the emperor and Lord Hu have already made their choice, right? ”
Is this a rejection?
Zhao Shan'er saw that her imperial brother narrowed his eyes, and the cold air all over his body became cold, and he suddenly jumped out, smiled, pointed to the things placed next to Zhongli, and gaged.
"Young Master Zhong, hurry up and answer Princess Ben's question. What's that thing around you? ”
However, Zhongli did not answer Zhao Shan'er's words, but arched his hand towards His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and continued to speak with a firm expression.
"The grass people have heard a sentence before, repay grievances with virtue, how can they repay virtue? He injured the grass people's housekeeper and hurt the grass people's face, how could the grass people not care? If you really don't care, that person must be a person with a sweet mouth and a sword. But recently, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince oppresses the grass people as the prince and forgives him, the grass people will not dare to disobey. ”
