Lord Zhou's face immediately turned white.

Yes, this matter is also related to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

He thought about it, no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't think of what mistakes he had made, so he could only clean up and follow Lord Ye to the palace.

Along the way, his heart rose to his throat.

When he was brought to Chen Mu by Lord Ye, he didn't say a word and knelt down.

Seeing him like this, Chen Mu sneered.

"Knowing in front of me that I'm afraid, isn't it very majestic outside?"

The meaning of these words was meaningful, and Lord Zhou's eyebrows jumped.

He looked up at Chen Mu and hurriedly shook his head.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, I ...... I don't know what you mean by this, I have never punished the prestige outside, the reason why you say this, is it because you have heard some rumors! ”

"I can guarantee that I have never done anything that is not good for the government and not good for you!"

"There must be someone who has a grudge against our Zhou family to slander our Zhou family!"

Lord Zhou seemed to remember something.

He narrowed his eyes slightly and scolded angrily, and when Chen Mu saw him like this, he sneered and said.

"What you sent someone to do, there are all the human and material evidence, do you dare to deny it?"

After saying this, he waved his hand at Lord Ye.

Seeing this, Lord Ye immediately responded and hurriedly retreated.

A moment later, he marched into the main hall with a small young man, who was terrified.

It was the first time in his life that he had entered the palace, and he didn't know if he would ever make it out of it alive.

He was so frightened that he trembled, and when the young man looked up, he saw Lord Zhou kneeling not far away.

The young man was excited, and immediately pointed at Lord Zhou and said.

"My lord, several adults, it's him! He was the one who told me to do something about the shop! ”

As soon as these words were spoken, Master Zhou was stunned at first, and then immediately frowned.

He was about to refute the other party, when he suddenly remembered something,

The young man looked a little familiar, and he remembered that this man was not the same man that the butler had brought to him before.

He ordered this man to do something about the newly opened shop in the city, why did this man appear in the palace!

Wait, can't it be......

That shop has something to do with His Royal Highness the Prince?!

This thought flashed through his mind, and Lord Zhou was excited, and he looked up in the direction of Chen Mu violently.

Facing Chen Mu's smiling expression, Lord Zhou gasped, and immediately realized that he had created a catastrophe.

"Looking at the look on Lord Zhou's face, I'm afraid you also remember what you have done, are you willing to admit this mistake now."

"If you don't admit it, I don't mind calling the shopkeeper in my shop and confronting you!"

When Lord Zhou heard this, he wanted to cry without tears.

Yes, that shop is really His Royal Highness the Prince!

He hurriedly bowed to Chen Mulian.

"I don't know...... Didn't know the shop was yours! I beg your forgiveness, Your Highness the Prince, if I had known that the shop was yours, I would not have been able to do anything to it. ”

"Whoever owns this shop, you shouldn't do anything to it."

Chen Mu's eyes were heavy, and Lord Zhou shuddered and nodded in response.

Seeing this, Chen Mu pursed his lips, he glanced at Lord Ye and asked Lord Ye to lead people to retreat.

Lord Ye stepped forward and left the main hall with Lord Zhou, and escorted the person into the dungeon.

Lord Zhou's accident was suppressed by Chen Mu and Lord Ye.

Although the people in the family in the capital also knew that Lord Zhou had been arrested, they didn't know what the reason for Lord Zhou's arrest was.

The Zhou family was also quite surprised, and the Zhou family entered the palace to meet and wanted to ask the truth of the matter, but they were all blocked by Chen Mu.

The Zhou family was panicked, for fear that Lord Ye's affairs would affect them.

They didn't dare to go to Chen Mu frequently to inquire, so they temporarily suppressed their thoughts and only sent people to inquire in Beijing.

While learning about the Zhou family, the family in Beijing is also inquiring about the situation related to the mysterious shop.

Knowing that the equipment sold in the shop was extremely useful, some people who had never bought equipment before also moved their minds and prepared to let people buy some equipment and come back to have a look.

Within a few days, most of the families in the capital had already bought equipment.

Instruments are no longer rare, Chen Mu saw this, groaned slightly, and directly ordered the shopkeeper on duty in the house to lower the price of the equipment.

The equipment that was originally ten taels of silver has been reduced to eight taels, and the price of some cheaper equipment has also dropped a lot.

When the people of the city heard this, they were shaken.

Some people who had been eyeing the equipment for a long time and were about to move, intending to buy the equipment, immediately poured into the shop, bought the equipment from the shopkeeper, and carried it back to their homes.

After using it themselves, the people knew how good it was and immediately spread it in the city.

All of a sudden, people who could afford to own equipment became highly sought after.

The people in the city were curious about the equipment, and some people would borrow it from their neighbors.

Chen Mu heard that the equipment was widely acclaimed, and nodded with satisfaction.

Seems like a good idea.

When a new device is researched and ready to be promoted in the future, it can also be done by the shop first, rather than directly issuing a government order.

Although the direct issuance of the decree is conducive to the promotion of the device, it is not conducive to the recognition of the device by the people.

Only when the people have tried and accepted the instrument will they be willing to spread the word to others.

Most of these instruments are beneficial to the lives of the people, and they are not agricultural and textile instruments that must be promoted among the people.

Therefore, Chen Mu did not force the people in the city to have such equipment in every household.

If you don't have the financial resources, it's not impossible to live without the help of these devices.

The lords who studied the government also knew about Chen Mu's plans and arrangements.

In the past few days, they have also heard about equipment-related matters, and those officials who have developed laundry equipment and other equipment are even more proud.

The people did not know that the instrument was made by them, and they did not have a preconceived rejection of the instrument.

After receiving the device, they also saw how good it was.

"We also have to work hard to study more equipment, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has distributed the money from the sale of equipment to those people, tsk, they have been rich recently."

Li Mao couldn't help but sigh as he watched several adults who were studying the government walk past the courtyard.

Those adults also heard Li Mao's voice, and they greeted Li Mao with a smile.

"Hahaha, Master Li, envy, it's okay, when we finish studying the equipment at hand today, we will invite you to go out for a drink."

"This device can be successfully researched, and there is also your guidance, we will not forget this kindness."

When Li Mao, Lu Wen and others heard this, they also smiled and responded.

After everyone was busy in the mansion, they left the mansion and chose a restaurant, ready to relax.

While talking and laughing, Li Mao caught a glimpse of a figure walking by outside the door of the private room.

Li Mao didn't take the man to heart, but he didn't think about it, but after taking a few steps, the man turned around and came back
