Chapter Seventy-One: The Temptation Who Can Refuse
Zhong Zili is a small businessman in Yangzhou City, and on weekdays, his business is not bad, but a flood and a war have dealt an unprecedented blow to his business.
Fortunately, he is not usually a random spender, he likes to save money, and after this catastrophe, he still has some money in his hands.
Today, Zhong Zili opened as usual, waiting for business to come to the door, but he didn't expect to usher in the prince.
Thinking of what the prince called them over a few days ago, I couldn't help but feel a tense in my heart.
It shouldn't be because everyone disagrees, so the prince is unhappy, so let's take these small families!
Thinking of this, Zhong Zili felt a little painful.
Ji Zijun looked at the shop and was very satisfied, he did come to operate today, but it was not the overlord who made a bow.
"Boss Zhong's shop is good, and the things he sells are also good."
Ji Zijun took the lead in praising it, who doesn't like to listen to nice words, Zhong Zili is naturally no exception.
He listened to the praise with a smile, and his heart was very happy.
"However, I think there is still something missing in Boss Zhong's shop!"
Immediately, the prince suddenly thought: "There is a lack of a brand!" ”
"I also have an inscription on this brand, which reads that Boss Zhong's shop specially donated fifty taels of silver in order to sympathize with the suffering of the people!"
In an instant, Boss Zhong's eyes lit up instantly.
This is an opportunity to promote your store for free, or the prince himself mentions the words, how honorable!
With the deeds of the crown prince in Yangzhou, it will not be a problem to ascend the throne at that time!
For a while, Boss Zhong was a little moved.
He has heard about the prince's deeds in the past few days, and if he can really get the memorial arch written by the prince himself, wouldn't it be ......
Boss Zhong's face was full of smiles, "Your Highness, this is what we should do for the benefit of the people, fifty taels of silver is too little, and the old man will donate one hundred taels!" ”
Saying that, Boss Zhong was about to go to get the silver, but was rejected by the prince.
"Wait a minute, such an important thing naturally has to be known to everyone!"
After the prince finished speaking, Boss Zhong was confused and didn't understand what he wanted to do.
Half an hour later, there was a sound of banging and banging, and then, many people were attracted to the door of Boss Zhong's shop.
The prince appeared and solemnly thanked Boss Zhong for donating money to the people, and for a while, he became famous!
In just one afternoon, Boss Zhong's donation for the people spread throughout Yangzhou City.
Many people with a little money in their hands came to Boss Zhong's shop to spend, in order to support him in this way.
Seeing that the business in his store was doing very well, Boss Zhong's face smiled, even if he was busy, but his heart was unprecedentedly satisfied.
At the same time, I was glad that I had made the decision.
When the time comes, even if someone follows suit, it will definitely not achieve such an effect as itself.
He was happy, and so was the prince.
Because, in front of him are now sitting the three largest wealthy businessmen in Yangzhou City.
They didn't have the sad faces they had before, but with a somewhat flattering smile, the meaning was self-evident.
Immediately, the three wealthy businessmen each donated 500 taels to express their sincerity.
Ji Zijun was also very intimate, saying that the plaque was already ordered to be done, and at noon tomorrow, he would pick an auspicious day for the zodiac and send the plaque.
The next day, the prince looked at the mountains of silver and was slightly stunned, but soon came back to his senses.
He divided the use of the money and used all the money for the construction and maintenance of Yangzhou.
The long night was long, the prince sighed slightly in his heart, and felt sorry for Su Fei, from potatoes to advice, this princess who used to grow up in a poor place really broke the prejudice against people in his heart.
If only the other party were a man!
In this way, the ambition that can be carried out will be greater.
A month later, Yangzhou had completely restored its previous prosperity, and the prince took the sinners and Su Fei and his party this time and set off for Beijing.
Prince's Mansion.
After returning, the prince first went to the emperor to tell him about the situation, and then reported his safety to the queen.
After returning home, I went to find Su Fei as soon as possible.
"Is there something wrong with Your Highness?"
Su Fei knew the other party's character, since her last refusal, this prince would never set foot here except for something.
"You can see what these are? Then, make your next decision! ”
The prince took out a box of letters and pushed them in front of Su Fei.
When the letter was opened, the handwriting of the dragon flying and phoenix dancing made people recognize whose words it was at a glance.
Look at the content in it again, which one is not a major crime of killing the head and punishing the nine clans.
After Su Fei finished reading all the content, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
Which of these can be sentenced to death.
"What does Your Highness want me to do?"
Su Fei only glanced at it a few times and tossed the letter aside. Since the other party has laid out all the evidence, it is not just as simple as letting her see it.
"If the prime minister wants to live, he will go to confess by himself, plus what you have done for the people during this time, you can live."
"The concubine understands."
Following.
Su Fei came to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and as soon as he entered the door, he met the Prime Minister who was about to go out.
"Baoyu? Why are you here. ”
"There's something important to tell Daddy, and it's up to you to make a judgment."
"No time!"
The prime minister's face was slightly impatient, and he felt even worse when he thought of the money he was forced to donate last time.
"Daddy, let's take a look at this!"
Su Fei took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it over.
Looking at the familiar notes on it, the prime minister's face instantly became ugly.
"How can you have this thing!"
After speaking, he quickly tore up the letter and tried to cover up the evidence.
Su Fei didn't stop him, and smiled faintly, "The Prime Minister tore this one, did you tear up hundreds of thousands of envelopes?" ”
There was a deathly silence in the air, and the once powerful prime minister had a rare look of tiredness.
He let out a long sigh, knowing that he had nothing to fight back.
"What do you want me to do?"
"If you want to live, take the initiative to admit that there is still a glimmer of life. The prince has all the evidence, how to do it, presumably his father already has the answer in his heart! ”
Following.
In the Jinluan Palace, hundreds of civil and military officials gathered together.
After listening to some trivial matters, the emperor looked at the princes present and said lightly, "If there is nothing to do, then retreat from the court!" ”
The prime minister gritted his teeth and stood up, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the minister is guilty. ”
As soon as these words came out, the ministers were in an uproar and looked at him one after another.
"Oh? What are your sins? ”
"Because of greed, the minister embezzled two or three hundred thousand taels of disaster relief silver, which led to bandits in Yangzhou, and the people could not survive! The sin deserves death! ”
In an instant, everyone present was stunned, and everyone subconsciously recalled what they had just said, wondering if their ears had heard it wrong!
