"In that case, you can keep the money."

Liu Zhizhong was stunned, "How can this be done?"

"Why not?" The deputy envoy of the left court said as a matter of course: "This money is given to you by the prince, and you can spend it on whoever you like, and you don't have to think about whose money it is."

"That's half a million taels of silver." Liu Zhizhong said bitterly, "The prince is not afraid."

"Keep it to yourselves." The left deputy court envoy snorted coldly, turned around and left.

"Ugh."

Liu Zhizhong sighed.

That's when he reacted, like. The emperor didn't intend to pursue their Liu family at all, but gave them a shortcut?

"Father, why does the prince want this money?" Liu Zhizhong wondered.

Liu Yuanhai was silent for a moment, and said slowly, "Maybe the prince was forced to be anxious by that little beast."

"Driven by that little brute?" Liu Zhizhong frowned.

"Father said. His Royal Highness the Prince?"

"Except for him, no one else probably has the guts." Liu Yuanhai said with a solemn face.

"I remember that the prince summoned His Royal Highness the Crown Prince last night, and also called him to the imperial study to talk alone for a long time. Then His Royal Highness the Crown Prince hurried back to the Prince's Mansion."

"It's definitely not that simple."

When Liu Zhizhong heard this, his expression became solemn.

"That. What should I do?" Liu Zhizhong asked.

Liu Yuanhai thought for a while and said, "I'll immediately go to the Prince's Mansion to explore the truth and reality."

After speaking, he turned his head to Liu Zhizhong and admonished: "Remember, no matter what happens later, don't act rashly, don't provoke right and wrong."

Liu Zhizhong nodded and said, "The child knows."

Liu family, prince's mansion.

"Bang bang."

"Your Highness, it's not good." A guard rushed into the hall in a panic: "The head of the Liu family is here."

"What? Why did he come to me?"

The crown prince's brows furrowed.

He had just offended the royal family, and the head of the Liu family actually came to find him?

Could it be that he wants to avenge the royal family?

The crown prince couldn't help but worry.

"Your Highness, what are we going to do?" The guard asked cautiously.

"Don't panic, Prince Ben wants to see what kind of medicine he sells in his gourd." The prince took a deep breath, suppressed the apprehension in his heart, and walked out the door.

In front of the Prince's Mansion.

Liu Zhizhong and the elders of the Liu family waited.

"Brother Liu, are you sure you want to refuse? The prince is looking forward to you sending the money to the border." The left deputy envoy said.

Liu Zhizhong pondered for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "That's it. This matter started because of the old man, and it should be solved by the old man. I only hope that the prince can let go of the rest of the Liu family."

"Don't worry, the prince is merciful and will never kill indiscriminately." Left deputy courtyard envoy.

"Well, with the Zuo Deputy Yuan envoy as a guarantee, I am also at ease." Liu Zhizhong nodded.

Liu Yuanhai also said: "The rest of the Liu family, the prince will also open the net, and he will definitely not harm their lives."

"That's good." Liu Zhizhong nodded with satisfaction.

While they were talking, a carriage stopped in front of the Prince's Mansion.

"Brother Liu." A middle-aged man got out of the carriage, it was Liu Zhiwen, Liu Zhizhong's younger brother and uncle of the crown prince Liu Yuantai.

"Second brother, why are you here too?" Liu Zhizhong said in surprise.

"I heard that something happened to your family, can I not come?" Liu Zhiwen sighed and said.

Liu Zhizhong shook his head and did not speak.

Although the three brothers belonged to the same Liu clan, they were not very familiar with each other.

"Deputy Envoy Zuo, you're here." Liu Zhiwen greeted him warmly.

The left deputy envoy nodded at him.

"Second brother, this is Lord Zuo of the left servant of the Tobe." Liu Zhizhong introduced.

"I'm glad I will." Liu Zhiwen smiled

With a groan, he reached out and shook hands with the left deputy envoy. Z.br>

"The contemptible people have already heard of Lord Zuo's prestige, and it is indeed dignified. By the way, I don't know why Lord Zuo came to me this time?"

"I'm ordered to collect taxes."

Qin Fan turned over and dismounted, arched his hand to the left deputy courtyard envoy, and said after a few polite sentences.

"The prince instructed me to bring a batch of military supplies to the border fortress and hand it over to Liu Zhixiong, the minister of the border garrison, Lord Zuo, please come with me."

"Liu Zhixiong?" Liu Zhiwen was slightly stunned.

Liu Zhixiong is the in-law of the Liu family, and Liu Zhiwen naturally knows him, but he didn't expect Liu Zhixiong to send someone here.

Liu Zhiwen was a little surprised, but he was quickly relieved.

Liu Zhiwen knows very well that Liu Zhixiong's official position is one level higher than him, and the war on the side of the border is tight.

Liu Zhixiong definitely needs assistance, and it is reasonable to allocate military funds to Biansai.

Thinking of this, Liu Zhiwen smiled heartily and said, "That's very good."

The deputy envoy of the left also smiled, he was ordered by the emperor to come to collect the arrears.

This kind of thing is naturally inconvenient to describe Liu Zhiwen in detail.

"Please." Qin Fan turned sideways and led the two of them towards the prince's mansion.

Liu Zhiwen followed Qin Fan, his eyes fell on the prince, and his eyes flashed with essence.

Based on his understanding of his nephew, Liu Zhizhong suddenly offered to borrow five million taels of silver, this matter must not be so simple, Liu Zhixian must have broken the sky.

As for the specific reason, he didn't know, and he didn't bother to ask.

The only thing he can be sure of is. Liu Zhixian is dead this time.

Liu Zhizhong also noticed Liu Zhiwen's strange eyes looking at the prince, he was unhappy in his heart, and secretly scolded a fool, not understanding what Liu Zhiwen was doing.

He only felt that Liu Zhiwen's appearance at this time was really a bad thing.

Soon Qin Fan led the two into a side hall and asked them to sit down and drink tea.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, what about the will of the Prince?" The left deputy envoy said lightly.

Liu Zhizhong's face twitched, and he said, "The will of the prince has been written on the fold, if the left deputy envoy does not believe it, he can check it."

As he spoke, he took out the fold from his bosom and handed it over.

The Vice-Courtyard Envoy Zuo glanced at it, then nodded with satisfaction and said, "Although Lord Liu's method is risky, it is worth trying."

The corners of Liu Zhizhong's mouth twitched, revealing a reluctant smile: "Thank you, Lord Zuo."

The left deputy envoy waved his hand: "No need to be polite."

"Well, since Lord Liu dares to do such a thing, he thinks about it carefully."

"Therefore, we should also take precautions, so that I will give you an excerpt, and you will act according to the plan set forth in the excerpt."

As he spoke, the deputy envoy of the left took out a fold and pushed it in front of Liu Zhizhong.

This excerpt is a strategy that he specially wrote just now and explained to Liu Zhizhong.

The reason why the deputy envoy of the left court is so active is not that he really wants to help the Liu family tide over the crisis, but more because he wants to curry favor with the emperor.

After all, no one knows when the emperor will die. If you can show enough value in this matter.

After the prince who inherits the throne in the future ascends the throne, maybe he can still leave him as an uncle of the country.

Liu Zhizhong took the fold and read it slightly.

"Then I'll take my leave." He stood up and bowed to the left deputy envoy.
