Chapter 380: Accepting Bribes

Zhao Shangshu's complexion changed a few times, but it was not so obvious on his big black face.

"Why did Cheng Engong say this?"

"I've been walking around the antique market a few times in the past few days, and your money can't afford to support your preference at all."

Cheng Engong stared straight at Zhao Shangshu, as if he wanted to find something out of his face.

Zhao Shangshu's expression returned to calmness, and he said slowly: "The grange in my house, the shop, and my wife's dowry, all of these add up, as long as I can find a treasure, I can make ten or ten hundred." ”

Before Cheng Engong came here, he had already thought that this person would be difficult to deal with, and now he didn't panic, but asked calmly: "Zhao Shangshu, is this really the case?" ”

"If I had found someone to check it, I would have found something."

Zhao Shangshu just smiled: "Chengen Gong must have a reason to verify me, but you can't say that you will raid your house, and if you say that you will seize it, you will seal it." ”

Cheng En looked at Zhao Shangshu for a while, and suddenly laughed, and in the end, he even laughed so much that tears flowed out.

"Zhao Shangshu, Zhao Shangshu, do you know why I came to you after so many days?"

"Because I finally figured it out in the past few days, I am the regent of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and I am the uncle of His Majesty today, Your Majesty is not sensible now, who is the real master of the Great Zhou Dynasty?"

"It's me, I said I want to investigate you, I want to investigate you over there, I said I want to raid your home, then I want to raid your house, and you dare to say a word to me?"

"As for Lu Chengan, that hairy boy, don't you have to listen to me?"

"This king has never put his position right, and it seems that you are not aware of this king's status."

As soon as Cheng Engong's words came out, Zhao Shangshu only felt a little sweaty on his forehead.

Cheng Engong is indeed the same as before, saying that he is a gentle and humble person, so that people can't feel that he is already in a high position, and above him, there is only a little emperor who is not sensible at all.

Zhen Guogong is still young, Chen Juma is his nephew and son-in-law, and Imperial Envoy Li and Jiang Ge Lao are close friends with him for many years, if he insists on investigating and punishing himself, these people should be biased towards him in the end.

Careless!

"What Cheng Engong said is that the lower officials have never dared to disrespect Cheng Engong."

Zhao Shangshu bowed down to explain, while reaching out to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead.

Cheng Engong snorted from his nose and said, "Then you can say, where did the silver you get for playing antiques come from?" ”

Zhao Shangshu hesitated a little, his lips moved a few times, but finally he didn't speak.

Cheng Engong smiled coldly: "Zhao Shangshu, the objects of the Great Zhou Dynasty are all surnamed Zhou, and they don't follow my surname Song." ”

With just this sentence, Zhao Shangshu only felt suddenly enlightened.

It turned out that Cheng Engong had such an idea.

"Since Cheng'en has an order, the lower officials dare not disobey."

Zhao Shangshu thought that after figuring out the key points, his mind became more active.

Does Cheng Engong mean to overthrow the little emperor and succeed to the throne himself?

Then I may have the opportunity to sit on the dragon chair, but if I can't sit on it, it is also the number one hero.

After the establishment of the new dynasty, the position of a prince of the country is indispensable!

However, if you can really intervene when Cheng'en Gong is planning this matter and ascend the throne smoothly, then everyone will be happy......

Thinking of this, Zhao Shangshu hurriedly bowed down to Cheng Engong's ear and told him about the coal mine in Anxi.

After hearing how much money they had earned, Cheng Engong only felt his brow jump a few times.

This group of scum, the silver taels they collect from reselling coal are enough for the people of the whole Great Zhou to eat for a year!

Zhao Shangshu looked at Cheng Engong's expression, thinking that he was feeling sorry for those silver taels, so he hurriedly said: "Xia Guan is not talented, I am willing to give those silver to Cheng Engong." ”

Cheng Engong was silent for a moment and nodded: "I don't want all of them, you can just give me half." ”

Seeing that Cheng Engong was willing to accept those silver taels, the big stone in Zhao Shangshu's heart finally fell to the ground.

accepted his own bribe, and Cheng Engong didn't want to get off the boat.

"When does Cheng Engong have time, Xia Guan is willing to take Chengen Gong to Anxi to have a look, and also get to know our own people."

As soon as Zhao Shangshu said this, Cheng Engong frowned tightly.

"What, do you want me to go there myself?"

"Isn't this taking advantage of the fact that the imperial court has not yet sent soldiers, we have to step up mining, if it is late, then the silver will not be able to enter our pockets."

Zhao Shangshu explained with a smile.

Rao is Chengengong looked displeased, but he still made a decision with Zhao Shangshu to set off two days later.

Before leaving, Zhao Shangshu handed Cheng Engong a box, and bluntly said that it was a small meeting gift, and that half of the silver would be sent to Cheng Engong's house before leaving.

After hearing that the little servant came to report that Cheng Engong had left the house and went to Wanqingxuan to buy a few extremely valuable jewelry and returned home, Zhao Shangshu squinted his eyes and smiled.

Hooked.

********

Cheng Engong, who left Zhao Shangshu's mansion, sat in the carriage with an expressionless face.

Why is the last hook so slow, Lao Tzu has put on the name of the first life, and this is a little progress.

I just don't know how I will write down this in this account.

********

"Cheng'an, you don't have to follow me this time, both of us left, it's too eye-catching."

In the council hall, Cheng Engong said to Lu Cheng'an.

Lu Chengan frowned tightly when he heard this: "Then how can it be done?" I don't have to worry about you going by yourself. ”

Cheng Engong looked at him with a smile: "What, do you really think that I don't have the power to protect myself?" ”

"If you really don't feel at ease, just send me a few powerful secret guards around you to protect me."

Lu Chengan also knew that it was not a good thing for the two of them to leave Beijing, but he was really not at ease if he wanted Chengengong to wade through this troubled water by himself.

After weighing it, Lu Chengan asked Lu Yi and Lu Ba to follow them from a distance, and selected a few skilled people from his guards to act as Chengengong's servants.

Chengen Gong knew that Lu Chengan was worried about him, so he didn't shirk and accepted all the orders.

********

"Master, you have to come back well." Duchess Chengen earnestly instructed her husband while preparing her husband's bags.

Cheng Engong nodded in response: "Don't worry, I have a group of elites with me." ”

Duchess Chengen sighed: "Why is this thing coming endlessly?" ”

Cheng Engong stretched out his hand to wrap his arms around his wife's shoulder, and was silent for a long time before saying, "Since we have chosen this path, we must be ready to face all this. ”

"If we want to be idle, can Your Majesty's seat be kept? Can we keep the Cheng'en Mansion? ”
