More than 20 water and fire sticks fell together, and the grain merchants cried and cried for their mothers, and at this moment they finally understood how bastard this powerful son from Chang'an City was.

This kind of stubbornness can be handled, and it is said that the fight is a real fight.

In the past, it was notorious in Chang'an City, and it was definitely won by strength, and it was not discounted at all.

Mrs. Han stood in the hall, her face also turning pale.

She thought that Li Qinzai was just scaring the grain merchants and forcing them to lower the price of grain, but she didn't expect Li Qinzai to really dare to do something to the grain merchants.

He...... Have you ever thought about the consequences?

All the grain merchants in the state are here, if they beat the military stick today, how can they be expected to sell a grain of grain in the future?

The grain merchants in the whole city are on strike, the state treasury cannot transfer grain, and seeing that the catastrophe has come, what will the millions of people in the four counties under the jurisdiction of the prefecture eat this year?

With such serious consequences, even if the Son of Heaven favors Li Qinzai, he is afraid that he will not be able to protect him.

In the year of the catastrophe, food was life-saving, involving the lives of millions of Li people, how dare he treat grain merchants like this.

In the front yard of the Assassin's Mansion, a military stick fell on the grain merchants, and many of them had passed out in pain.

Li Qinzai stood expressionlessly under the front porch of the hall, watching coldly as the grain merchants were beaten, his eyes firm and indifferent.

Mrs. Han quietly walked up to him and said in a low voice, "Is Li Tingshi really going to completely offend the grain merchants?" ”

Li Qinzai sneered: "In the year of the catastrophe, it is not a pity to raise the price of food and kill them all, only beating them with a few military sticks is already very merciful." ”

Mrs. Han looked at him deeply: "Have you ever thought about the consequences?" ”

"What consequences? The city's grain merchants went on strike? Li Qinzai smiled: "The people's hearts are like iron, and the official law is like a furnace, since I have become the assassin of the state, I have a way to train the grain merchant ......"

After a pause, Li Qinzai glanced at her meaningfully and added, "...... and, the people behind the grain merchants. A gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way. Some wealth cannot be made. ”

Mrs. Han froze for a moment and smiled reluctantly.

In the front yard, twenty military sticks had been beaten, and most of the grain merchants had passed out, and the rest who were not unconscious were lying on the ground, moaning without a sound.

Li Qinzai walked to the middle of the courtyard and said slowly: "Inviting you to the banquet today is a piece of goodwill, but if you feed my kindness to the dog, you will have to offend." ”

"Today, the official did not kill anyone, he left a line of life, you will reduce the price of food immediately after you go back, and tomorrow the official of the assassin will go to the street to patrol, who dares to deliberately close the door and boycott the market, kill! Who dares not to reduce the price, kill! Who dares to disobey the yang and the yin, deceive and assassinate the history, and kill! ”

"Bring the words to the characters behind you, take advantage of the disaster year to make the country rich, this road will not work!"

"I am the assassin of the state, and I set the rules of the state, including the price of food."

The resounding words made the grain merchants tremble, and they finally discovered that this young gentleman was not as simple as it was rumored.

Arrogant and domineering is still arrogant, but in addition to being arrogant, he is also a decisive court official, and he is domineering enough.

Let the subordinates set up the carriage outside the door of the grain merchants, whether they fainted or not, they all threw out, and the front hall of the Thorn Mansion suddenly quieted down, and only Mrs. Han and Li Qinzai sat opposite each other.

"I didn't have enough wine just now, so I neglected Mrs." Li Qinzai smiled and toasted to her.

After being stimulated by the picture just now, Mrs. Han didn't dare to flirt with the man, and drank a glass with Li Qinzai very decently.

Putting down the wine glass, Mrs. Han suddenly smiled: "Li Tingshi really wants to know if there are any people behind the grain merchants?" ”

Li Qinzai also smiled: "There must be a lady among those people, I just want to know how deeply involved the lady is in this case, if it is so deep that she can't extricate herself, the lower officials will be embarrassed......"

Mrs. Han's eyes rolled: "Why are you embarrassed?" ”

Li Qinzai said lightly: "If the lady is too deeply involved, the embarrassment for the lower officials is whether to kill or stay the wife." ”

Mrs. Han's eyelids jumped: "You dare to kill me?" ”

Li Qinzai smiled: "Dare." ”

"Are you going to kill me, or Chang'an City, ......" Mrs. Han couldn't go on, and her beautiful appearance had lost her color.

"It has nothing to do with Chang'an City, I don't treat people right, the fate of my wife only depends on whether you deserve to die, you are the wife of the country who is enshrined by His Majesty, you should know the truth that the water also carries the boat, and the water also overturns the boat, in the year of the catastrophe, the price of food is raised, and the people are exploited, but it is about millions of lives."

"If I find out that my wife is too deeply involved in the case, then I can't help it, I want to give an explanation to the people, you cysts that suck the blood and sweat of the people are dead, which is a good thing for Datang."

Hearing Li Qinzai's cold tone say this, Mrs. Han's body couldn't help but tremble.

She was really scared, because she was sure that Li Qinzai really dared to kill her.

The dewy relationship with the Son of Heaven can no longer be her bargaining chip, Li Qinzai said very clearly, he only looks at the facts and argues guilty.

…………

Mrs. Korea left in despair.

Li Qinzai sent her out of the Assassin's Mansion very graciously, and watched her car disappear into the middle of the street, and Li Qinzai's face showed a satisfied smile.

Today's Hongmen Banquet, fighting grain merchants is one of the purposes, but it is not the only purpose.

What he had to do was to kill a chicken and show it to the monkey, whose name was Mrs. Han.

He knew that Mrs. Han was involved, and he needed to open a gap from Mrs. Han and take care of those people who were hiding in the shadows in Bingzhou City.

Liwei, Huairou, abolished her chips, and after some operation, Mrs. Han was obviously shocked by him.

The next day, the officials of the Assassin's Mansion went out into the streets.

In accordance with Li Qinzai's instructions, the officials specially inspected dozens of grain shops in the city, and then reported that all the grain shops in the city had opened their doors and were honestly selling grain at last year's grain price.

It was good news, but Lee wasn't too happy.

He knows very well that the nature of capital is bloodthirsty, and it is basically impossible to expect the grain merchants to be honest after beating the board, and they must have a back-up trick waiting for him.

"Ah Si, send people to garrison outside the city, and send people from all four directions out of the city to keep an eye on the convoys of those grain merchants." Li Qinzai commanded.

Liu Asi was stunned for a moment and said, "What does Fifth Shaolang mean ......"

"That's right, they will transfer the grain." Li Qinzai smiled: "I forced the price to cut the price, and I didn't dare to close the door, but they still want to make huge profits, so they can only quietly transport the grain out of the city and sell it at a high price in another place." ”

"If there is no food in Bingzhou City, I will be embarrassed by this assassin history, the people don't know what to do, they will only blame me for being a assassin who has no way to govern the city, and the grain merchants kill two birds with one stone, why not?"

Liu Asi was suddenly furious, gritted his teeth and said: "The villain will lead people to guard the main road outside the city, whoever dares to secretly transfer the grain, the villain will screw his head off." ”

Li Qinzai shook his head again and again: "No, no, I mean, let them go." ”

Liu Asi was stunned again: "Let them go?" Grain is also released? ”

"Yes, let the grain go, and your task is to keep an eye on the convoys carrying the grain, and roughly estimate how much grain they have carried."

"What do you mean, Fifth Young Lang?"

Li Qinzai blinked: "Yesterday, I watched the stars at night, pinched my fingers, and found that the people of Bingzhou can actually drink the northwest wind to fill their stomachs, and there is no longer any need for food in the city, and it doesn't matter if the grain is transferred, the northwest wind is free." ”

Liu Asi looked at him speechlessly: "Fifth Shaolang, if you don't want to say it, you can not say it, why bother to fool the villain with this reason, the villain is not so stupid......"

"Well, I don't want to say."
