After that, Lu Shen continued to work on the recital until the evening.

Twilight.

The fire clouds filled the sky, and it was brilliant.

Walking out of the study, Lu Shen hammered his waist, and then looked at Sande who was waiting on the side and said, "This palace invites several major grain merchants in the imperial capital to the banquet, they should also arrive, right?" ”

Sande bowed his head, and some words were choked; "Back to Your Majesty, there are three major grain merchants in the imperial capital. The Shen family, the Zhao family, and the Zhou family. The head of the Shen family said that he had suffered a stroke and was unable to walk, apologized to His Highness, and could not come to the banquet. ”

"The shopkeeper of the Zhao family said that the head of the Zhao family went out to talk about business and was not in Beijing. The last Zhou family did not reply. ”

"Huh...... All right! ”

A trace of coldness appeared in Lu Shen's eyes: "Even a few grain merchants dare not take this palace in their eyes!" ”

There is no doubt that someone has already greeted these three grain merchants, otherwise Lu Shen believes that these three people are not so bold.

As for who it is, you can figure out who it is with your toes.

"Swing the car, since they don't come, then the palace will come to visit in person!"

Lu Shen waved his robe.

"Yes!"

Sande immediately arranged.

A quarter of an hour later.

The crown prince walked out of the imperial city in a mighty way, and was personally escorted by a hundred of the most loyal brocade guards selected by Sande.

In addition to the Imperial City, the convoy immediately went to the nearest Shen family.

As soon as the convoy left the imperial city, the cabinet got the news.

After Ji Wuye heard this, he just snorted coldly disapprehantly.

"With the temperament of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, I'm afraid that he will kill again, let him kill!"

"The more he kills, the more he thinks this is Liwei? Amusing! Shi Nong Gong Gong, he has already offended the Shi, and now he is going to offend the Shang again, he is stupid! ”

"The new official has three fires, let him play first."

"Yes." The attendant bowed.

……

Soon, the convoy arrived at Shen's house.

And the Shen family had already received the news that Lu Shen was going.

They could ignore the prince's orders, but the prince himself came to the door, and they were not so bold as to turn them away.

When Lu Shen arrived, Shen Wansan, the head of the Shen family, was already waiting respectfully outside with a few subordinates.

"Grass people Shen Wansan, meet His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Chitose Chitose Chitose!"

Shen Wansan immediately led people to kneel down and make a ceremony.

On the chariot, Lu Shen looked at Shen Wansan coldly: "Didn't Boss Shen have a stroke and get sick?" How can you still get up to greet Hongu? ”

Shen Wansan suddenly sweated on his scalp, and replied stubbornly: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has come to make the humble house shine, and the grass people's illness will be cured much immediately, so I came to greet His Highness." ”

Lu Shen smiled: "So, when the palace is coming, can you still treat people?" ”

Shen Wansan felt that it was a sycophant in place, and immediately smiled: "Of course, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a dragon body, and his longevity is extended. ”

However, the moment Lu Shen sank, it was a cold drink.

"Lies and lies! Shen Wansan, you are so bold, you dare to bully you! ”

Shen Wansan trembled, and suddenly approached being scared to pee.

His Royal Highness the Prince, don't play cards according to the routine!

"The grass people don't dare!" He hurriedly fell to his knees and shouted.

"Why don't you dare!" Lu Shen snorted angrily: "Pretending to be sick and deceiving the monarch is one of them, the business status is the cheapest, but you are sitting in the house with three entrances, blatantly violating the Dafeng etiquette system, and treating the Dafeng law as five things, this crime is the second!" Hoarding and gathering, maliciously raising food prices, causing the people to live in poverty, this crime is the third! ”

"Someone, behead this head of the Shen family to show the public, and raid the house to enrich the treasury!"

Shen Wansan was dumbfounded.

Is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince so vicious, he will behead and raid his house when he comes up?

Immediately, he immediately knelt down and begged for mercy: "I beg His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to spare my life, spare my life, how dare the grass people violate the law of etiquette, this house is only rented by the grass people, and the rise of this grain family is also forced by the situation, and the grass people are forced to do so!" ”

Chen An looked at the Jinyi guard on the side: "Didn't you hear the words of this palace?" ”

A group of brocade guards reacted, hurriedly bowed and said yes, and immediately stepped forward to take the person, and the demon knife was unsheathed.

Seeing this, Shen Wansan was completely panicked, this Royal Highness the Crown Prince is going to play really!

"Your Highness spares your life!" He cried, regretting that he should not have listened to those above him.

He obviously didn't go to the banquet and offended the prince.

"Spare your life? Even if this palace can spare your life, how can the people of the world spare your life? As the largest grain merchant in the capital, you hoarded Juqi, so that the people could not afford to eat a mouthful of rice for three meals a day...... Such a crime is unforgivable! ”

A word, impassioned.

The people who passed by on the surrounding streets were shocked, did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince think so much about the people?

With the collusion between officials and businessmen, grain prices have already risen outrageously, and public resentment has already boiled, but no one dares to protest.

"Our Royal Highness the Crown Prince, be merciful...... someone shouted.

"Your Highness's benevolent ......" was immediately shouted, and the people burst into tears of excitement.

Finally someone is willing to think about them!

didn't delay too long, and in the Shen family's crying, Lu Shen went to the Zhao family.

And many people also followed all the way, and Lu Shen's actions are very happy today.

To Lu Shen's surprise, the Zhao family still had its door closed, looking like they were no guests.

"What a guts!" Lu Shen smiled.

He made such a big move, and the Zhao family still dared to have such an attitude, which was relied on!

"Sande, who is the backstage of this Zhao family."

"Back to His Royal Highness...... Sande immediately replied: "The daughter of the head of the Zhao family married the son of Shoufu Ji Wuye as a concubine. ”

"I see, no wonder you have such courage." Lu Shen nodded, and then waved his robe: "Raid the house!" The men are in the army, and the women are in the teaching department! ”

"Yes!" Sande swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and couldn't help smacking his tongue in his heart, this highness's methods are too powerful, kill if you say kill!

Then, Lu Shen went to the last one, the Zhou family.

To Lu Shen's surprise, before he arrived at Zhou's house, he saw a woman wearing a plain skirt, a delicate face, and a dignified and elegant temperament leading people to greet him.

Sande said: "Your Highness, this woman is the eldest lady of the Zhou family and the chief treasurer of the Zhou family. The son of the Zhou family is useless, but the daughter provokes the beam. ”

"The Zhou family is a little different from the Shen family and the Zhao family, the Shen family and the Zhao family were wealthy businessmen, while the Zhou family was just a small businessman at the beginning, and under the control of the eldest lady of the Zhou family, they slowly became one of the three major grain merchants in Kyoto."

"Oh?"

Lu Shen raised his eyebrows, and his gaze fell on this eldest lady of the Zhou family.

I didn't expect that a woman would have such ability.

And the eldest lady of the Zhou family also came to the frame, knelt down respectfully and said: "People's daughter Zhou Qianqian, meet His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a thousand years old and a thousand years old!" ”

"The people are willing to donate all the grain stored in the Zhou family to help the victims!"
