Chapter 358; Don't give an inch
"Hmph, that's enough."
Emperor Zhaowu snorted coldly, his gaze swept over the crown prince and the king of Chu, and finally fixed on the king of Qi.
"Tell me, what did you ask that man to do for you? And what is the thing that has been removed? ”
Emperor Zhaowu didn't care who made the first move, anyway, since both the crown prince and the king of Chu had already made a move, they would be punished together.
Therefore, he was even more curious about what could attract the crown prince and the king of Chu to make a move.
Originally, I wanted to watch the two younger brothers peck each other, but I never thought that my father would pass by directly.
This made him a little overwhelmed for a while.
Seeing that he was silent, Emperor Zhaowu's face sank, and he asked in a deep voice; "Could it be that you have done something shady and dare not let me know if you can do it?"
"No, my father is angry, how dare my son do anything unseemly."
"Erchen just wants to do some small business, but it is really inconvenient for Erchen to come forward in person as a prince, so I let Zhao Sanshun handle it on his behalf."
"The sons didn't dare to say it, because they were afraid that their father would punish them."
"Doing business?"
Emperor Zhaowu raised his eyebrows slightly.
"The son is guilty, and he shouldn't do this inferior business in vain for the prince's respect."
King Qi hurriedly surrendered his hand to plead guilty, as the son of Emperor Zhaowu, although he didn't know this father very well, he still knew many things.
Their family has been an aristocratic class since their ancestors, and it was the mansion of the state in the previous dynasty, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they have been hairpins for generations.
Therefore, there are also some habits of the aristocracy, and Emperor Zhaowu did look down on merchants and craftsmen very much before, which is also the fundamental reason why the Yu Dynasty was so poor in front of him, and Emperor Zhaowu was desperately clinging to the strategy of heavy agriculture and suppressing business.
This is also the emergence of Huo Junyao, which made Emperor Zhaowu have a lot of changes in business.
Huo Junyao is quite special, and even said that if he is replaced by someone else and engages in business, he may not be able to pull Emperor Zhaowu together.
Because of her identity, in addition to the matter of the crown prince, Emperor Zhaowu owed some debts.
This allowed Emperor Zhaowu to give the greatest tolerance and make up for it.
And it was precisely because of Emperor Zhaowu's choice that he could see the great benefits of commerce, which is why he often said that the lord of Zhaode was the lucky star of the Yu Dynasty.
There are a lot of factors that go into this, and it's not as simple as it seems.
On the other hand, Huo Junyao's business empire can be built so easily, although there are some plans of Huo Junyao, but it is more because of the acquiescence and support of Emperor Zhaowu.
Just kidding, this is an ancient imperial feudal society, and the imperial power is greater than the sky, without the acquiescence of the emperor, many things will not be so easy to succeed.
To put it simply, those guys of the Shi clan have been working hard for so many years, would they not think of building a business empire?
That must have been thought of a long time ago, but why can't they do it?
It's not because they suffered from the jealousy of Emperor Zhaowu that they couldn't do it, and they didn't dare to do it rashly.
But Huo Junyao's situation is very special, not only because she owes a debt, but also because she is a woman, but also because of the eldest princess of Ningyang and Huo Jingzhi, the prince of Ji Guo.
"I'm curious, what business do you want to do?"
King Qi was silent for a moment, and hurriedly spoke; "During this time, Zhaode's cousin made the hot spring villa company is very good, and Erchen happened to hear some time ago that a businessman was in urgent need of money and wanted to sell the two small shares he owned for money."
"It's not good for Erchen to come forward by himself, so he will hand it over to Zhao Sanshun to negotiate on his behalf."
"Fortunately, the negotiation was successful, and Erchen also deliberately went to his grandfather's family to help raise money, and he was worried that others would buy it, so he ordered Zhao Sanshun to take 20,000 yuan to finalize the matter first."
"But Erchen never expected that Zhao Sanshun had just gone out not long ago, and he was attacked and killed by the crown prince and the king of Chu."
"For the sake of these 20,000 yuan, Erchen almost hollowed out the family foundation of the Qi Palace, and never thought that he would kill innocent people."
As he spoke, he turned his head to look at the crown prince and the king of Chu rather sadly and angrily.
"Why do you kill innocent people if you just snatch the money?"
"The prince of a country, the prince of a country, is actually under the nose of the father and emperor in the capital, killing innocents so indiscriminately, you are really."
Later, he didn't say anything, but turned directly to Emperor Zhaowu and bowed.
"Please ask your father to make decisions for his sons and ministers, and avenge innocent people."
Emperor Zhaowu didn't get angry when he heard this, but turned his head to look at Jing Zhaoyin, who was shrinking his head and head like a quail on the side.
"Jing Zhaoyin, how do you think this case should be handled?"
Suddenly being named, Jing Zhaoyin trembled, and hurriedly walked out in small steps, bowing down to Emperor Zhaowu.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty. The minister thought that he should first investigate the specific situation and recover the money. ”
Oh, this Nima and the three of them are fighting back and forth, why do you want to let your old bones suffer?
"Investigation? What else needs to be investigated? Didn't they all admit to making a move just now? ”
Emperor Zhaowu sneered and raised his hand to point at the crown prince and the king of Chu.
"This, this, this"
"Since it has been admitted, what should be done with it, the murderer will hand it over, as for the lost money of King Qi."
He looked at the crown prince and the king of Chu and said; "Since both of you have identified each other as having taken the money, and I don't bother to investigate, then each of you will take out 20,000 guan and hand it over to King Qi."
"As for King Qi, your people are dead, and they need to be compensated."
"Do you have any opinions?"
King Qi naturally has no opinion, lose 20,000 guan and come back 40,000, although his father told him to take care of the pension, the big deal is to take out one or two thousand guan to pay for the pension, then he has to earn.
He wants shares very much now, so naturally the more money the better, not to mention that the money is still from the two competitors of the crown prince and the king of Chu.
"Father, the son is not convinced, the son did not snatch the 20,000 guan from the king of Qi, why do you want to take out 20,000 guan, it is unfair for you to do this."
The king of Chu was directly unhappy, and he didn't grab the money, so why should he follow the money?
Obviously, the crown prince took 20,000 yuan, and now his father is dealing with it like this, the prince is just handing over what he grabbed, but he has to pay for it himself.
People don't kill themselves, and they don't rob the money themselves, but they want to take 20,000 yuan plainly, there is no such reason at all.
"Father, the son is not convinced, and the money is not robbed by the son, why should the son pay 20,000 yuan?"
Seeing that the king of Chu had spoken, although the prince was relieved at this time, he still shouted, joking that if he didn't shout, wouldn't it be tantamount to telling others that he had robbed the money?
The ghost knows, the father did this, not to find out the person who robbed the money, he had to call for humiliation.
If you can get rid of this punishment, you don't have to pay, and you can get more than 20,000 yuan.
"Since that's the case, let's check it, find it out clearly, so that everyone in the world can see how the prince of my Yu Dynasty and the king of Chu are careless about people's lives."
"Cha, Erchen agrees."
The king of Chu was the first to approve, anyway, he didn't kill people, and he didn't rob the money, what was he afraid of?
"The sons are also in favor."
The prince was not to be outdone, and when he came to this point, he couldn't retreat, and he couldn't even show a little weakness.
