I'm playing tricks in Daqin

These words seem to be persuasion, but they are actually a threat. The emperor goes out to play in the palace. No matter who is right and who is wrong in a conflict, it will only be the emperor's fault in the end. Rushing the emperor to gain reputation is the biggest hobby of the speaker.

With the banker's financial resources, he can definitely buy all the speakers and a large number of officials. If Li Wei doesn't want to be overwhelmed by the memorial, he'd better choose to calm down.

"You threaten me?"

"Don't dare, it's just persuasion."

Zhuang Yunxiao sneered.

"Okay, let's forget about it."

Hearing Li Wei's words, Li Chang and Zhuang Yunxiao looked at each other and smiled, so what about the emperor?Didn't he submit obediently under their strong alliance?

If he can convince Li Wei once, there will be a second time. In the long run, he will be more comfortable than Li Wei, the real emperor.

When they were full of ambition, Li Wei suddenly asked: "The matter of grabbing my box can't be forgotten like this!"

From the two people's ears, it was nothing more than that the emperor was not convinced after being deflated, and wanted to find fault. Li Chang asked Mei Shan, "What kind of box? Whose is it?"

Mei Shan immediately understood the hint, and said, "It belongs to Master Zhuang."

Zhuang Yunyi on the side also nodded desperately.

"Little Wei, how old are you, and you still steal other people's things? It's not good to spread the word, so let's forget it."

"Really forget it?"

"Naturally forget it."

Li Chang laughed.

With a long sigh, Li Wei said with pity on his face: "Uncle Huang, you are my own uncle. I can't think of anything, but you want to conspire to usurp the throne!"

Hearing this, Ding Xi drew out his waist knife directly and pointed the knife point at Li Chang. As long as the emperor gave an order, he would rush up and chop off King Kang's head.

"Xiao Wei, what do you mean by that? Are you going to frame your uncle?"

Li Wei didn't speak, but directly opened the box, took out the jade seal inside, and said with a sneer, "What do you mean by asking me to give the jade seal to Zhuang Yunyi?"

No one would have guessed that there was a jade seal in the box, and this time Li Chang did not dare to pretend to be a senior.

"Here, why is Yuxi inside?"

"I am the Son of Heaven, shouldn't I carry the jade seal with me?"

That is to say, but Yuxi is so big, why would he carry it with him when he goes out of the palace?

Zhuang Yunxiao immediately realized that this was a trap. The eyeliner told him that Ding Xi had obtained the order to arrest Zhuang Yunyi for the crime of treason. Zhuang Yunxiao immediately panicked and didn't have time to find out what happened. He helped intercept Zhuang Yunyi.

After he came, he didn't expect that his fourth brother would have a conflict with the emperor, let alone that the emperor would use himself as bait and use the jade seal to launch a fatal blow.

Li Chang even wanted to scold the street, his nephew was too bad, he deliberately used a broken box to store the jade seal, and set up a language trap, making him think that Li Wei and Zhuang Yunyi had a conflict because of grabbing the box.

When dandies rob things, what they rob is not the things, but the face. This kind of thing Li Chang did not do less, he never thought that there would be jade seals in it.

Knowing that he has fallen into a trap, Li Chang will speak well, and he neither calls himself "the king" nor dares to call Li Wei by his nickname.

"Your Majesty, the old minister didn't know that there was a jade seal in it. Your Majesty atones for it!"

"I don't care about anything, but can I not care about snatching the Jade Seal of Chuanguo?"

Such a blatant plot of rebellion, even though he knew that Li Wei planned to set him up, but Zhuang Yunxiao had nothing to say, the emperor started playing hooligans, who can do it? "Your Majesty, aren't you afraid of the world's criticism for doing this?"

"If a person is shameless, he is invincible in the world."

Li Wei said proudly.

Well, the emperor is shameless, Zhuang Yunxiao is completely convinced, and the next step is naturally the negotiation.

"Your Majesty, you are a sensible person, let's just say it."

"Okay, I won't embarrass you, I will clear Shang Kaiping's grievances, and you will personally invite Shang Kaiping out of prison."

Zhuang Yunxiao wanted to refute, but after taking a look at Zhuang Yunyi, he could only admit it, it's nothing to lose his younger brother, and he would be happy to see it succeed if he could lose a share of the family business in the future, but if he tried to commit treason, the Zhuang family would be in trouble.

The emperor wants to eradicate the banker on the grounds of obstructing the reform of the currency system. The officials will protect the banker to the death, and they can commit the crime of treason. The officials will only regard the banker as a fat pig and sharpen their knives and forks.

"Okay, Cao Min agrees."

"I was surprised this time."

"Caomin is willing to spend 50 taels to atone for his younger brother."

"Okay, do you remember the previous bet? Let Lin Qianru be the young master."

Zhuang Yunxiao didn't expect Li Wei to mention this matter, he had to bow his head under the eaves, he could only grit his teeth and say, "Okay."

"Then it's all right. When Shang Kaiping will be released from prison and when Zhuang Yunyi will return home, let's go."

Walking in front of Li Chang, Li Wei said coldly: "Uncle Huang, you just gave security to a traitor who snatched the jade seal, and asked me to hand over the jade seal to him?"

"I dare not, I have been deceived, Your Majesty atones for my sin."

"Don't call me Your Majesty, call me Xiaowei, it's pleasing to the ear."

"His Majesty……"

"Things are rare and precious. You are my only uncle. The late emperor also entrusted me to treat you kindly. I really can't help you. But your son, I have many cousins, and it doesn't hurt to die a few. Don't worry, I will remember the brotherhood and leave an incense for you."

Li Wei patted his shoulder, but before Li Chang could react, Ding Xi walked up to him.

"Kang Kang, no one dares to punish you for what you do, but His Majesty will not cover up the bad things your sons did. This is the "Illegal Affairs of King Kang's Sons" compiled by the general. The general has a bad temper, and you dare to call your majesty by his nickname again." , the last general will kill your son."

When Li Gang was alive, Ding Xi was Wei's sharp blade. For Li Chang, his words were more intimidating than Li Wei's.

Chapter 585 Loyalty to the King and Serving the Country

"Lord Ding, don't worry, your majesty is the Ninth Five-Year Honor, your majesty's pet name, whoever dares to call it again, this king will not."

With a cold snort, Ding Xi passed by.

"His Royal Highness, what happened today is over?"

Zhuang Yunxiao asked tentatively.

"How does this king know? Talk to His Majesty about enough money. The money you gave before is not enough. I will make up the money you owe to this king. I won't ask this king for anything in the future!"

As soon as Zhuang Yunxiao reached the corner in a daze, he was stopped by Lin Qianru.

"Brother, I saw the emperor just now, and I have advised you that this is not an easy matter, you must...how is it now?"

"Why don't you know? Don't call me big brother, I can't afford to be called that by He Shengchang's young master."

"Brother, what do you mean by that?"

With a cold snort, Zhuang Yunxiao said with disgust on his face: "From now on, you will be He Shengchang's young master. We are not done with this matter."

Seeing the back of Zhuang Yunxiao going away, Lin Qianru stomped her feet angrily, "Damn Li Wei, your trick has succeeded! This matter is not over, don't even think about reforming the currency system!"

After the banker was cheated, he immediately began to transport away. The "criminal evidence" of Shang Kaiping that day became unsubstantiated, and he was released.

This made Li Wei heave a sigh of relief, but at the same time he was filled with anger. No wonder everyone called Zhuang Zhiming the Gold and Silver Emperor. This emperor had greater power than himself.

The courtiers were united to fight against the emperor. Annoyed, Li Wei directly refused to go to the court to protest.

By this time, both parties knew that the reform of the currency system had entered a feverish stage. If Li Wei lost, not only would the reform of the currency system be impossible to talk about, but he would also be stigmatized as a fool like Emperor Wanli.

The more this is the case, the less likely the opposing courtiers will compromise, as if they want to fight Li Wei to the death.

Seeing Li Wei directly throwing the memorial on the ground, Tian Ce said in embarrassment: "Your Majesty, how do you approve these memorials?"

Now not only the six works, but even the localities have put up memorials requesting funding, and big projects are being launched everywhere, and some people even ask Li Wei to take out internal funds.

"No money."

"Your Majesty, it's fine if the court has no money, but if the reform of the currency system is implemented, I'm afraid it will cause... discussions."

To implement currency reform, the imperial court must have enough start-up funds. At least it must first use silver to make silver dollars before it can be exchanged for silver among the people, and then the exchanged silver is cast into silver dollars to ensure circulation.

But after checking the accounts today, Li Wei discovered that the silver exchanged for silver dollars had been withheld by the household department and had been used for other purposes. Now the mint has stopped working because there is no silver.

Before Li Wei's order for the Ministry of Finance to transfer the money was issued, the frowning Tian Ce came to him with a pile of memorials.

"I'm not even allowed to use the imperial court's money, am I still the king of a country?"

"Your Majesty, if it is used for other purposes, the courtiers will agree, but if it is allocated to the mint, they will definitely not agree."

"They are determined to obstruct currency reform!"

Hearing Li Wei's words, Tian Ce couldn't help but smile wryly, you don't realize their determination now, do you?

A combination of punches from the opposing forces stunned Li Wei, and he suffered a lot. Now that he doesn't have to go to the court to listen to the noise of the civil servants, Li Wei's mind has calmed down.

"Okay, one move after another is coming, I will let them know now, who has the final say in this world, you go back first."

"Your Majesty, don't act recklessly."

"Don't worry, I know."

Tian Ce knew Li Datianzi's character too well, and said that he was indifferent to praise him, and looked at him full of worry, Tian Ce sighed, turned and left.

Li Wei also knew that now is not a good time to reform the currency system, but he really couldn't wait and thought too much, so he couldn't do anything in the end. There were always wars in the past, isn't it just to let the people live a better life?

Li Wei had never been cowardly when he met a strong enemy on the battlefield, and now he will not be cowardly when he meets these idiots.

On the same day, a decree was issued to Chang'an City, the Feng River flooded, the victims needed relief, and the remaining seven rivers also needed to be treated to prevent problems before they happened. The imperial court's finances were short, and the emperor issued a national debt for river management, calling on all Chang'an officials and merchants to actively subscribe.

If in the past, the emperor spoke up, everyone wanted to save face, and the family should have taken ten taels and twenty taels, but after the reform of the currency system, the emperor's call has been ignored.

One day passed, except for the common people, small merchants and Tian Ce, the backbone of the imperial party, no official or giant merchant subscribed.

Looking at the pitiful amount in the account, Li Wei gritted his teeth and said, "It's unreasonable, everyone is so full of fat that they can't give up any fat!"

"Your Majesty, why don't you... the servant go to each house and ask?"

The emperor has spoken, no one donates money, and the donated money is too little, the emperor will feel embarrassed.

"Isn't this an excuse for the officials to impeach you? Saying that you are accumulating money and forcing me to kill you, you are my minister, how can I be willing?"

The sixth father-in-law is the chief steward of the palace, and he also has rank, but he is a eunuch, no one treats him as a "subject", but in the eyes of His Majesty, he is not only a subject, but also a minister.

Li Wei's words made the sixth father-in-law burst into tears and kept kowtowing to thank him.

The monarch and his ministers were in the midst of an emotional drama, when a young eunuch suddenly communicated outside, Ding Xi wanted to report to the monarch.

"What happened again?"

"Your Majesty, Kang Wang said that in response to His Majesty's call, he is selling property on the street."

Hearing this, Li Wei shattered the dragon case with his angry palm. The only uncle of the emperor actually sold his property in the street. It was clearly a slap in the face to let the world know how mean and ungrateful he is as the emperor. .

"Your Majesty, let the servants persuade you."

Xiao Liuzi, who had just vowed to sacrifice his life to the emperor, said hastily.

"No, let Tian Ce go and persuade me. Xiaoliuzi and I will watch from the sidelines and see how 'loyal and patriotic' my uncle is."

"Speak up for me!"

Li Chang led a group of servants to find a treasure in the street and spread out the antiques and antiques at home. He sat in the shade with his legs crossed, and the servants gathered around the antiques and shouted loudly. .

"Everyone who passes by, come and have a look. These are all treasures. If you don't buy them, you will regret it. If you buy them, your ancestors will be blessed for generations."

"Everyone, come and take a look, it's genuine, and it's not deceiving."

The servants peddled very hard one by one, attracting the surrounding people to stop. When they saw that it was Li Chang, they consciously backed away. Even the rich dared not come forward to look at these antiques.

"Ma'am, how long have you been looking at it, do you want to buy it?"

Sitting at the side, Li Chang saw a woman walking back and forth with her hands behind her back, blocking Li Chang's view from time to time, so Li Chang jumped up angrily and went forward to ask.

"If you don't buy it, you can't do it? Besides, how can you buy these things when they are so expensive?"

"Hey, you old lady..."

Just as Li Chang was about to speak, there was a commotion not far away. The keen Li Chang poked his head and looked back. It turned out that Tian Ce came here with a group of subordinates.

"If you don't buy it, go away quickly, don't delay the matter."

As soon as the words were finished, Li Chang immediately showed an attitude of sincerity, "Everyone, come and have a look, these things are all treasures. After passing this village, there will be no such shop."

"Give way."

After Tian Ce's subordinates arrived, they quickly made a way out of the crowd. Seeing Li Chang's battle, Tian Ce said dissatisfiedly, "What are you doing?"

Li Chang shrugged innocently, "You have also seen that this king is selling his property."
