Chapter 224 The undercurrent is surging, and the killing machine is complete!

······

The reason why Chen Chao asked Erhu to say whether to go or not was because he knew that Erhu would definitely say that he would go.

After all, for Erhu, winning silver is one of the few things that can make him excited.

Of course, Lin Ziying didn't have to object, he was just worried that the Chen Dynasty was in danger.

When Chen Chaozhen decided to go again, all he had to do was protect Chen Chao, and secretly arranged some of his subordinates.

······

Silver Hook Casino and Jiangnan Pavilion are not very good.

Because Chen Chao gambled in the Silver Hook Casino, although Jiangnan Ziyi and the others seemed to be unsympathetic, but there was no way, who called Chen Chao thick-skinned.

She could only deal with Chen Chao in person.

However, although Chen Chao was not her opponent, every time she couldn't hear the points, Chen Chao not only bet on one or two silvers, but sometimes even didn't bet at all.

In this way, Jiangnan Ziyi has no way at all, it is too difficult to win against the Chen Dynasty, and at most he can only guarantee not to lose.

And because of the appearance of Chen Chao, other gamblers also followed Chen Chaozhao.

The casino's business was greatly affected.

Jiangnan Ziyi's strength was limited after all, and she couldn't hold on for too long, so after she couldn't hold on, Chen Chao fought back.

In this way, there is nothing she can do.

And when all the energy in the dantian is consumed, it will take at least a day to recover.

Therefore, she had to call the other sisters of Jiangnan Pavilion to help her.

As a result, the Chen Dynasty was resigned, but the business on the Jiangnan Pavilion side was somewhat affected.

The dignitaries and dignitaries went, and the Jiangnan sisters who wanted to watch the performance were not there, so they were naturally unhappy.

Moreover, more people heard that the Jiangnan sisters came to the Silver Hook Casino, so all of a sudden there were more people in the Silver Hook Casino.

Of course, casino revenues didn't come up as a result.

On the contrary, the income of Jiangnan Pavilion is declining.

As for the Jiangnan sisters and Chen Chao said, we are also acquaintances, why did Chen Gongzi rush to kill them all like this, when he was so ruthless, Chen Chao's answer was extremely lethal.

There are no brothers at the table.

Therefore, the Chen Dynasty still kills and kills.

······

"Eldest sister, if Chen Chao continues like this, our business will be affected too much, do you want to?"

In the Jiangnan Pavilion, Jiangnan Lingyu frowned coldly, stretched out his snow-white neck, and made a killing action.

"I'm afraid that he is waiting for us to do this, and after a few contacts with the Chen Dynasty, I found that he is completely different from the Chen Dynasty that we originally knew, if it weren't for the fact that they all looked the same, I suspect that the Chen Dynasty is not the original Chen Dynasty at all.

However, no matter who he is, at least the Chen Dynasty we are facing now is very difficult to deal with.

He must not have done this to win money, he must have some other purpose, and we will bear with it for the time being. ”

Jiang Nanyue still said calmly.

However, only she knows that she is only calm on the surface, not on the inside.

The appearance of Chen Chao made her finally realize that she had a real opponent.

This opponent is very tricky and difficult to entangle.

"But eldest sister, there is a need for silver over there, and if the silver can't be supplied, something big will happen. ”

Jiang Nan Lingyu said a little worriedly.

"At least we can hold on for a month, and with the help of that giant businessman, we can only hold on for another four months, and then we will be able to make it easier with the tax money." ”

Jiang Nanyue said lightly.

"Hopefully, I just don't know when Chen Chao will be like this?" Jiang Nan Lingyu sighed slightly, his eyes full of murderous intent.

Jiang Nanyue said, "I'll go to see Shang Qianxue tomorrow, if Shang Qianxue speaks, Chen Chao may listen." ”

Jiang Nan Lingyu nodded and said, "This is also the reason why the eldest sister Shang Qianxue treats her face injury, right?"

Jiang Nanyue said, "Chen Chao loves Shang Qianxue, so let Shang Qianxue owe us a favor, it will always be useful at a critical time, but I didn't expect it to be used so soon."

I didn't expect that at least we were already friends of Chen Chao on the surface, but he still didn't show mercy, he was too terrible.

He cannot be judged by the way a normal person acts, and we must be careful. ”

······

"Smack!"

In the prince's mansion, Qin Yuanzhao was furious, his eyes were cold and stared at Shang Xun and said, "Shang Xun, this prince doesn't care how much you lose, but the silver you promised to give this prince is not a little less, otherwise, this prince will not spare you." ”

Shang Xun knelt in front of Qin Yuanzhao, and he said, "The grass people understand, the grass people will definitely not delay the prince's affairs, but the grass people hope that the prince can slow down the grass people for some time.

But who would have thought that the dozens of ships transporting Nanmu would actually sink.

This time, the grass people suffered huge losses.

Moreover, contracts have been signed with some timber merchants in the north, and compensation for breach of contract has to be made.

But if it's just like this, forget it, what the grass people didn't expect is that because they offended the Chen Dynasty, the grass people's business in the Changlin fiefdom was all suppressed, and the loss was not small.

In addition to these, the grass people's business in Gangnam Province also lost many customers at once for some reason, and the business in Gangnam Province was almost completely impacted. ”

Shocked across the board!

Qin Yuanzhao snorted coldly and said, "I'm afraid that you Shang Xun has offended someone, otherwise, how can this be?"

Shang Xun said, "The grass people don't know, but at the moment, the grass people still hope that the prince will give the grass people some time, so that the grass people will hand over the silver later." ”

"Okay, Shang Xun, I'll give you half a month, if you can't pay the amount of silver I want in half a month, don't blame me. ”

Prince Qin Yuanzhao drank coldly.

Shang Xun Xie En left, and not long after, Zhao Chuan, the head of the household, appeared in the prince's mansion, he was summoned by Qin Yuanzhao.

"The prince doesn't know why, so displeased?"

Zhao Chuan couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw that Qin Yuanzhao's face was not good.

Recently, King Ling was punished and lost a member of the Ministry of Rites, so it stands to reason that Qin Yuanzhao should be happy.

Moreover, recently, Xu Guanzheng found some corruption evidence of Zhu Yu, the secretary of the Criminal Department, as long as the time is right, and the evidence can be brought down, so that King Ling will lose a big help.

These are all good things.

"Shang Xun has an accident over there, and the amount of silver promised to the prince will be later. Qin Yuanzhao snorted dissatisfiedly.

"This"

Zhao Chuan was taken aback.

He said, "What if he can't take it out later? Our current silver can only last for one month, and it will take at least four months for the new tax money of our household department to start collecting, and it will take more than three months to do it in between?"

Prince, you should find a way as soon as possible, once the salary is not paid in time, but something big will happen. ”

"This prince naturally knows, but Shang Xun is a huge businessman after all, and his family property is rich, if he can't get the silver by then, this prince will sell his family property, in short, he won't make a mistake. ”

Qin Yuanzhao said coldly.

"That's fine. ”

Zhao Chuan breathed a sigh of relief, as if he remembered something, and he asked, "His Royal Highness the Prince, the old minister has a sentence that has been pressed in his heart, and I don't know whether to ask it or not." ”

"It doesn't have to be that way, just say anything. ”

"Yes. ”

Zhao Chuan bowed slightly, then looked at Qin Yuanzhao and said, "The minister wants to know, if the crown prince has always been the crown prince, will we never do it?"

Qin Yuanzhao listened to Zhao Chuan's words, and couldn't help but sneer, "Zhao Chuan, do you think I can always be the crown prince? Even if it is, how aggrieved this kind of day is, don't you see it, my father has been balancing the power between me and King Ling, and I am in the name of the prince, but my father does not regard me as the real prince and the future prince in his heart."

Once one day, he finds out that this prince is not as good as King Ling, King Ling will replace me.

So, Prince Ben won't let this kind of thing happen to me.

It's just that the time is not yet ripe, our momentum is not yet stable, and it will take at least three or four months for that side to form an effective combat force. ”

"I understand. ”

Zhao Chuan didn't say more.

Then, he said, "I heard that Chen Chao has been gambling recently, and the Yingou Casino has been restless, which has caused the Jiangnan Pavilion owner a headache, not only the Silver Hook Casino has been affected, but also the Jiangnan Pavilion has been affected. ”

Zhao Chuan told him what he knew in detail.

After hearing this, Qin Yuanzhao snorted coldly, "What's more, Shang Xun's business in the Changlin fiefdom has also been affected.

This bastard, Prince Ben really wants to kill him. ”

Zhao Chuan frowned slightly, "Did he know something, or was it just out of revenge against Shang Xun, and here is just because he loves to gamble?"

Qin Yuanzhao snorted coldly, "Whether it's a coincidence or what, let's be careful, don't have any more incidents, some time ago, Chen Chao checked your accounts, you have to be careful, lest something happen to you over there, then it will be fatal." ”

"The prince can rest assured, the account of the household Chen Dynasty is tired to death and can't find anything, although some of the things Chen Dynasty has done recently, they are all extraordinary, unlike the original second ancestor, but some things, no matter how he is, it is useless.

The household department also asked the prince to rest assured, and the minister promised that nothing would happen. ”

Zhao Chuan said solemnly, "It's Shang Xun and her side, the prince should be more careful, lest small things turn into big things in the end." ”

He's a bit of a credit grabber.

On the one hand, he said that there was absolutely nothing wrong on his side, and at the same time reminded Qin Yuanzhao to be careful, on the other hand, he was telling Qin Yuanzhao that he was the most capable.

"Don't worry, Lord Zhao, when we have a big deal, this prince will not treat you badly. ”

Qin Yuanzhao was not good at scheming, but he could still hear this kind of words, and he couldn't help but say.

"The minister thanked the prince. ”

Zhao Chuan solemnly bowed, and then took his leave.

······

The Chen Dynasty finally waited for the good news, and the King of Qin took action, and the people of Yingzhou and other places who had been overtaxed stood up under the mobilization of Lin Ziying, reported to the King of Qin, and signed the complaint.

The king of Qin was already on his way back to Mingdu with the people who had filed these complaints.

During this period, he was robbed by many unknown people, and several people died, but fortunately, the king of Qin was prepared, brought a thousand soldiers, and finally killed these people.

And King Ling also gained something, and caught the person who came to report at the city gate, of course, the crime of arrest was that he was suspected of assassinating King Ling, and was finally taken to King Ling's mansion and locked up.

Except for Chen Chao and King Ling's side, Zhao Chuan and Qin Yuanzhao's side didn't get any news at all.

······

Jiang Nanyue not only went to the General's Mansion, but also sent 200,000 taels of silver to the Chen Dynasty.

Of course, it was for Shang Qianxue, and asked Shang Qianxue to pass it on to Chen Chao and tell her what she said.

"Chen Chao, you really don't want to gamble?"

Shang Qianxue told Jiang Nanyue's intention, and handed the silver ticket to Chen Chao, after getting Chen Chao's meaning, she couldn't help asking.

Chen Chaodao said, "No, the matter has already been done, there is no need to go again, and besides, we owe Jiangnan Pavilion a favor here, and this time we should repay her favor, lest there be anything in the future, and everyone is really difficult to handle." ”

Shang Qianxue understood what Chen Chao meant, and she also understood Chen Chao's suspicion of Jiang Nanyue and them, and now she can return this favor, so she is also less worried about Chen Chao.

Otherwise, she knew that once Jiang Nanyue opened her mouth to ask Chen Chao for something else, or to beg her, Chen Chao would finally agree.

It's good to pay it back like this now.

As for the 200,000 taels of silver, the Chen Dynasty sent Lin Ziying to return it.

······

"Eldest sister, what does he mean by this, do you still want to continue going to the casino?"

Receiving the silver returned by Lin Ziying sent by the Chen Dynasty, Jiangnan Lingyu was a little displeased.

Jiang Nanyue said, "No, he won't go to the casino, Chen Chao is too clear about his work, and he returned the silver to us, which means that he promised us, but at the same time, he is also telling us that he is clear with us."

In the future, if something happens, we will have no mercy to go to him. ”

"Eldest sister, did he find something? Why else would he do this?"

Jiangnan Lingyu still has doubts in this regard.

Jiang Nanyue said, "In the eyes of others, Chen Chao went to the Silver Hook Casino because he loved gambling, but we can't think like this, and Chen Chao is definitely not because he loves to gamble, I have a faint uneasiness, something will definitely happen recently." ”

"About him?"

······

The King of Qin had already returned to the Ming capital with his people, and the city he entered at night did not attract anyone's attention.

And sent someone to inform Chen Chao.

He not only brought back the people who had complained, but also led troops to raid the Futai Mansion in Yingzhou, and obtained all the evidence.

Zhao Kang, the governor of Yingzhou, had already explained everything to him and wrote a confession.

Moreover, from Zhao Kang, Qin Yuanheng also had an unexpected gain, that is, when he checked Futai, he found out the account books that Zhao Kang had bribed Xu Guanzheng, the secretary of the ministry.

There were more than 300,000 taels of silver.

······

After receiving the news brought by the King of Qin, the Chen Dynasty was extremely happy.

He knew that the time had come to bring down Zhao Chuan, and even to bring down Xu Guanzheng in one fell swoop.

······

Mingdu is still so calm.

This is especially true in the early morning.

It doesn't seem to be anything wrong with the past, but it's a hidden murderous motive.

······

King Qin packed up in the mansion, with a faint killing intent on his resolute face.

······

King Ling got up earlier than King Qin, and more early than usual, in his words, today this king has to cooperate with King Qin to fight a big battle, and if he doesn't eat enough, he will make a mistake.

······

The crown prince Qin Yuanzhao was as usual, but he was also slightly excited.

Today, Xu Guanzheng is about to play, although Zhu Yu's corruption in the Criminal Department cannot be brought down all at once, but as long as the monarch orders a thorough investigation, Zhu Yu will definitely be over.

In less than a month, Qin Yuanzhao was naturally happy to bring down the two members of King Ling in a row.

One day, once he masters the ministers of the court, no matter how extraordinary Qin Zheng is, he will be hollowed out by himself.

And his other force is also gradually growing, and it won't take long to pay tribute, and at that time, even if you don't do something in advance, you will have a hole card in your hand to fight.

Today is destined not to be peaceful, and above the court, there will be a bloody storm!

Qin Yuanzhao looked at the bronze mirror, a knowing smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then slowly cooled down.

That means, as if to say that the one who stands in my way - death!
