Quick wear: after the villain heroine reaches full level

Chapter 88 The Crown Princess Quit (24)

He has been scolded in the past two months more than he has been scolded in a year.

After the people scolded the ministers, they scolded them.

The minister scolded the emperor after scolding.

Participating in his papers are almost full of dragon cases.

If this goes on like this, Zong Wu feels that his East Palace is about to disappear.

Hua Wu comforted him: "It's okay, we will solve the dragon case soon."

Zong Wu: "..."

……

……

Jiahe 17th year, autumn.

King Jin was greatly rewarded by the emperor for being a salt merchant.

However, the prince was fined by the emperor because he was not good at handling affairs, and the East Palace was deserted like a cold palace.

Because of this matter, the prince seemed to restrain himself a bit, and his subsequent actions were much lower-key.

Of course, this low-key is only compared with his previous style.

Compared to others, that's still...

……

……

Jiahe 18th year, autumn.

The emperor fell ill in early autumn and couldn't afford it.

Doctors from all walks of life came to see him, but no one dared to say that he could make the emperor get better.

The emperor's time is numbered.

The imperial city, which seems to be calm and calm, is secretly undercurrents.

The battle between the prince and King Jin has been completely put on the bright side.

At this moment, someone suddenly came to Beijing, beating drums and complaining, suing Linzhou salt merchants for neglecting human lives, colluding with local officials to oppress salt farmers, and driving them to death.

For some unknown reason, this matter suddenly became a big deal.

People were killed, and they couldn't be suppressed even if they wanted to.

Then the common people also began to complain that the salt they bought was mixed with impurities, which was not as good as before, and it was much more expensive.

Today's salt industry is a real imperial merchant, and this matter naturally has to be counted on the royal family's head.

And this matter was organized by King Jin Zongqi...

It is definitely impossible for the salt merchants to hand over their family business directly.

Therefore, we can only cooperate with salt merchants to make these salt merchants become real imperial merchants.

The royal family intervened, and the profits of the salt merchants were reduced.

They can only find it elsewhere.

For example, buying at low prices, squeezing salt farmers, and then selling adulterants at high prices.

It is not a day or two to do this.

It's just not as serious as it used to be.

Ordinary people at the bottom, knowing that they are not the opponents of these salt merchants, dare not sue at all.

In the Salt Merchant Chamber of Commerce, a few middle-aged men with big bellies were sitting together to discuss countermeasures.

"The supplies in the imperial city are all the best... how could there be impurities?"

"Before I came, I asked someone to buy some... It's really not right." One of the salt merchants took out a bag of salt and put it on the table, "There is something mixed in it."

After everyone passed it on one by one, their faces became even more ugly, "Could it be that the people below sent it by mistake?"

At the feet of the Son of Heaven, they still dare not do such a thing blatantly.

But elsewhere...the sky is high and the emperor is far away.

As long as the local officials are bribed, no news will come out.

"How could such an important matter be mistaken... I feel that this matter was planned by someone!"

How many years have they been doing this?
At the beginning when King Jin facilitated this matter, no one dared to come forward and complain.

Why did you suddenly jump out now?

There is no one here to instigate, those people have such courage?

"..."

Everyone looked at each other and thought of the recent situation in the court at the same time.

"Everyone, don't worry, first find out the specific situation."

They thought there was still time.

But they didn't expect that the development speed of this matter far exceeded their expectations.

The next day, a group of people jumped out and jointly sued them for their various evil deeds.

Everyone in this group has a reason for what they say.

Some even have evidence.

This matter was too much trouble, the emperor sat up in shock in his dying illness, and angrily reprimanded Queen Jin for fainting.

After the emperor woke up, he saw the prince.

When the prince came out, he had an imperial decree in his hand, and he would thoroughly investigate the matter.

……

……

into the night.

On the pitch-black pier, shadows swayed.

"Quickly, move these all into the boat!"

"hurry up!"

The man in charge kicked and punched the porter and yelled at him.

One of the porters accidentally fell to the ground, the bag on his shoulder was cut by a sharp object next to it, and the contents inside were scattered all over the ground.

"Damn, what are you doing!"

The steward rushed over with just a few feet.

"You can't do this little thing well, why don't you die!"

"What are you doing in a daze! What are you looking at, work!"

The steward yelled twice, only to find that none of these people moved.

With a flick of the whip in his hand, he swung it towards the nearest few people.

However, the whip did not fall, but was pulled by a force.

The steward's body suddenly flew out and smashed into the piled up salt bags.

The salt bag rolled down and buried the steward in it.

From the gap in the salt bag, the steward saw a slender figure standing not far away.

The moonlight brushed over the hem of the clothes, revealing pale golden embroidery patterns, causing the panic in the steward's heart to spread.

Prince...

"Catch them all."

Zong Wu's voice resounded through the night.

"Forgive me..."

"Excuse me, sir."

"They made us do this..."

Begging for mercy came and went one after another at the pier.

Some people jumped into the water, trying to escape from the water.

It's a pity that he will be caught back soon.

The noisy pier quickly quieted down.

The book-checking lantern illuminated Zong Wu, and Zong Wu cut open the salt bag with a dagger and grabbed a handful from it.

These salts are mixed with white sand.

Mixing white sand is considered good, and some are directly mixed with river sand and gravel.

Zong Wu clapped his hands, "Send them all back."

"Yes."

Zong Wu made a surprise attack that night, leaving the salt merchants with no time to deal with the criminal evidence.

So the salt merchants were all sent to prison that night.

……

……

Zong Wu was busy with this matter for several days and did not return to the East Palace.

After finally resting for a while, Zong Wu asked the examiner: "What has the Crown Princess been doing these two days?"

"...didn't do anything." Checking the book said: "basking in the sun, playing chess, drinking tea..."

The tea in Zong Wu's hand suddenly tasted bad.

Zong Wu threw the teacup on the table, "She really knows how to enjoy it."

"..."

That's not.

"Your Highness... Do you think the Crown Princess..." Chase asked tentatively, "What is she planning?"

Zong Wu: "..."

How does he know.

Checking the book: "You said, she is a spy, but for so long, she has not done anything to harm you except helping you. But you said she is not a spy, why has there been such a big change?"

Zong Wu has been waiting for his crown princess to show her feet.

But she likes to advise him all day long, urging him to ascend to the throne of God.

Other than that, she does nothing.

It seems that she really wants him to be the emperor, so that she can be the queen, and give him a son to inherit the throne... Something is wrong with her brain!
"Recently, the number of guards in the East Palace has increased, so that some people will not jump over the wall in a hurry."

This case involved not only those salt merchants, but also many officials.

"Wu He is staying in the East Palace. He will take care of it. Your Highness doesn't have to worry about the Crown Princess." Jianshu felt that if someone really took the risk, it wouldn't be the Crown Princess who was unlucky.

Zong Wu sneered, "Who is worried about her."

"..."

Don't worry about what the princess is doing under martial law?
You are not in the East Palace. Apart from the Crown Princess, the East Palace is just an empty palace!

I don't dare to say in the book inspection, I can only answer it.
