fake prince

Chapter 1063
"Ugh!"

Zhao Buwei glanced at the shivering maid who was kneeling on the ground, shook his head, and directed the servants to carry a plate of silver straight to the courtyard where he lived.

A slight breeze passed by, and after walking halfway, I felt a sudden silence, and when I saw it, the singing on the stage disappeared, obviously knowing that King Qi was furious again.

Zhao Buwei ignored it, went into his room, asked the servant to put the silver plate on the table, and then let it go away.

Two candles were lit in the room, the flames were faintly shining, and the ingots were shining brightly, making people look straight, but Zhao Buwei walked around and sneered.

"I don't know how much eyeliner is in the mansion. I can spend this money, but I can't take it away."

As he said that, Zhao Buwei took a book from the bookshelf, opened it, and the inside was actually hollowed out, leaving only a thick stack of banknotes. Only by being prepared and safe from danger can these silver coins escape the eyes and ears of the King of Qi."

The king of Qi started black hands, plundered and plundered, and his property was not small, and Zhao Buwei, who was in charge of this matter, naturally had a lot of money. into bank notes.

"Besides, they are all the ones that are cashed at sight."

Dazheng followed the Wei system, and the capital designated [-] banks to allow the issuance of bank notes, but they were divided into two types, one was actually a money order.

This is for large-amount transactions in different places and to avoid transporting silver. The units are 100 taels, 500 taels, and 1000 taels.

To give a simple example, the Jiangyou Chamber of Commerce has a relatively large transaction volume. In order to avoid frequent transportation of money, it has specially agreed with the bank on the delivery of bills of exchange. If it is captured, anyone who resists arrest can be killed.

After all, the government expressly stipulates that forgers of bank notes will be hanged at ten taels, so they can be killed directly.

Only the second young master of the Jiangyou Chamber of Commerce, who is in charge of this matter, can deliver this kind of money order.

The ticket is redeemed at sight, and there are those who recognize the ticket but not the person. It is the second type, which not only uses special paper, but also uses a special pattern, as well as the original watermark. In order to prevent forgery, the denomination is very small, and the highest is only 20 taels. , In this way, even if there is a master who can forge, the cost of a whole set of forgery may be more than 20 taels, which ensures that there are almost no counterfeit bills in the market.

Therefore, the 2 taels of silver bills that were exchanged at the sight of the bills are out of their minds. Do you want to send money to the counterfeiters?
Therefore, this thick stack is actually only seven to eight thousand taels of silver.

But Zhao Buwei was already quite satisfied. Touching these banknotes, for some reason, he suddenly remembered something.

"I heard before that when Taizu seized the world, he killed too much, so he was cursed. Not only did he become abnormal in his later years, but even the clan was unavoidable. I thought it was a slander from the people."

"But now it seems that King Qi is also like this. It may not be groundless. Even today, when he was a prince, he was gentle and refined, and he forced to kill the prince as soon as he got the throne, which is very suspicious."

"The king of Shu is just learning from today, so it doesn't matter, even the most promising acting king, maybe he will get sick."

"Should I retire directly, or switch to other kings?" Zhao Buwei couldn't help being entangled when he thought of this.

Shu Palace
At this time, the Palace of the King of Shu was brightly lit, and the West Flower Hall illuminated by a row of palace lanterns was as bright as daytime. Dozens of guests, staff and officials in the mansion surrounded the King of Shu on the table like stars holding the moon, and they staggered toasts and gongs, and played in unison.

The twelve female actresses are all graceful and graceful, with jingling steps, looking at each other, and dancing lightly. There are also female singers who dance out and sing in a clear way.

The jade candle tunes Yuan, and Emperor Xining arrives for the first time.

The auspicious smoke is ethereal, pointing to the south.

Since it is the Jun family, the virtue is high in Huaxia.

After weighing the cup, the clothes are like embroidered clothes, and they live a long life in Xishan.

As soon as the singing stopped, everyone immediately applauded and praised. Ma Youliang, the mastermind, sighed: "It's really a perfect poem. I don't know which celebrity wrote it?"

For some reason, an imperceptible smile flashed across the corner of King Shu's mouth, and he smiled: "This is what Dai Wang planned. On the day of Qianqiu's birthday, the father heard that Dai Wang was good at poetry, so he ordered Dang to start writing it. As a result, Dai Wang was really five years old. Step by step into a word, although it is not perfect, it is not ordinary."

"Dai Wang Wencai is indeed rare in this world."

Hearing the praise of the king of Shu, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay. The previous generation of kings was famous in the capital. Although the king of Shu promised himself to be elegant, he never sang these poems. Why has it changed now?

However, Ma Youliang realized that the previous generation of kings still had momentum, so they naturally confronted each other and defended them strictly. Now that the power of generation kings is gone, the king of Shu will naturally be magnanimous and praise him more.

This is not just the fault of the King of Shu. Most important ministers like this set very much. It has become an iron case, and they will be beheaded tomorrow. Indicates gas volume.

Knowing this, Ma Youliang smiled: "Dai Wang is indeed a generation of poets, come, let's congratulate this Ci."

After hearing this, the King of Shu drank it happily, and everyone immediately understood that the King of Shu was calm when facing others, but in private he was so happy that he was going crazy.

Originally, there were only three people left who could fight for the heir apparent, no, two and a half to be precise.

What happened to King Qi, the King of Shu actually had some vague guesses, but there was no concrete evidence.

However, judging from the recent changes in the attitude of the father, King Qi, it can be seen that the importance that the emperor attaches to King Qi has declined.

Under such circumstances, although King Qi would not be kicked out of the team fighting for the heir apparent all at once, he certainly couldn't be compared with himself.

The King of Shu was a little uncertain about his father's attitude towards the grandson of Dai Wang before. He said that he valued it. The King of Shu knew that his father ordered the prince to be killed. This happened first, and his father was very suspicious. Personality, can you really choose to be the king?

Aren't you afraid of turning up old scores after taking over the throne?

You know, even if the emperor was not overturned during his lifetime, he is not dead after his death. A new emperor's evaluation can make the buried emperor's life in the ground miserable.

There was an example in the previous dynasty. Emperor Taihe had no son, and was succeeded by the clan king of Jinyang County, Emperor Xing'an.

Emperor Xing'an was not the son of Emperor Taihe, and as a vassal king to succeed him, he had neither good opinion nor direct blood relationship, so it happened naturally to belittle him in order to highlight his sageness.

Emperor Xing'an gave Emperor Taihe a coffin to discuss the timing, and said: "Taihe Yuyu 15 years, no sutra banquet, indulge in pleasure and play, close to the small group, the country's power has weakened!"

This is a definite theory, those who are good at looking at the qi will say, add one-third of the gray and black qi!

You must know that the treatment of the emperor is mainly based on historical achievements, but it is also somewhat due to the evaluation given by the successor.

Therefore, the emperor must attach great importance to the choice of the new monarch.

Although the King of Shu had never been the prince most favored by his father in the past, he was well-behaved, and there was no blood feud with his father. In this case, shouldn't he be the only choice?

And Dai Wang was suddenly involved in the matter of "appearing in the daytime", isn't this the same as being completely forced to withdraw?
The king of Shu didn't think that the father could continue to tolerate the acting king!
How much the father likes the prince, the King of Shu can see it. At that time, although he was also the son of the father, compared with the prince, he was almost like the son raised by his stepfather. The treatment was a heaven and an underground. , I am the underground.

But when the prince threatened the status of the father, didn't the father force the prince to death?Even wiped out the whole family of the prince!

Under such circumstances, how could the father let go of the acting king?

Dai Wang completely withdrew, Qi Wang seemed to be faintly given up by his father, Ninghe County King probably would not have a chance to stand up, and he was the only one left in the end?
Therefore, it is safe to do things, and it also has the advantages of being safe. Even if you are a dog, you can still fight until the end!
Thinking of this, the King of Shu laughed with his lips, chatting and laughing with the staff and officials of the palace who gathered in the hall.

The people below are all toasting and congratulating, and even talking boldly. They are all from their own family. The door is closed, so you can talk about it in depth.

"Dai Wang will definitely die this time. It is not a death sentence, but also a reduction of the title and confinement."

"Your Majesty, you can sit back and relax once you replace the King!"

"Stop talking nonsense, you've had too much wine." The king of Shu said this, but his expression clearly felt that what this person said had reached his heart!

When other people saw this look, who didn't understand, the atmosphere in the hall had reached a climax, and suddenly someone hurried in from the outside.

"Report, Your Majesty! The big thing is not good!" The person who came in staggered, almost fell to the ground, but kept talking, and continued: "The emperor sent a decree to canonize the acting king as the grandson of the emperor, and the decree has reached Prime Minister Zhao. hands!"

"What?" This sentence immediately silenced the entire hall!

How can this be?

At this moment, not only the King of Shu was shocked, but also the guests and staff officials of the King of Shu were all shocked, as if in a nightmare for a while.

Especially the King of Shu, whose face was originally flushed, turned pale and trembled slightly, but murmured: "No, this is impossible...how could this be, I am the son of the emperor..."

The ignorant are fearless, the closer they are to the center of power, the more they understand the horror of power.

Ma Youliang saw that King Shu's face was blue and white, and he was stunned like sleepwalking, so he immediately got up and asked, "How is King Qi doing?"

The visitor hesitated for a while. Obviously, he came to report to King Shu immediately after receiving the information, and he didn't know what happened to King Qi.

"Quickly find out about King Qi!" Ma Youliang ordered.

"Yes!"

There was a buffer, and the king of Shu jumped up: "No, it's impossible, prepare the car, this king is going to see the father!"

"Your Majesty, at this critical time, if you lose your sense of control, thousands of people in the palace will be crushed!" Ma Youliang said sharply.

Shocked by this, the King of Shu couldn't help but backed up a few steps, fell silent for a while, finally came to his senses, and smiled wryly: "I'm sorry, I just lost my sense of proportion."

As he said that, perhaps he was prepared, the person who ordered to inquire about King Qi's news had already received the information, and came back to report it in a hurry.

"What? King Qi has gone?"

Hearing the news that King Qi had gone to the palace, King Shu immediately breathed a sigh of relief. It was impossible to just sit idly by and ignore such important matters as the canonization of grandson.

But if he had the guts to argue with his father, the King of Shu really didn't dare!
The father was also very ruthless when he attacked his son, he was a little confused about what the father was thinking at this time, it would be good if King Qi took the lead to test the situation.
