Poor Family Laity

  Chapter 384, surges from all sides

  With the arrival of business leaders from all over the country, all parties in the capital are undercurrents.

  As the crown prince's absolute supporters, the Wei family is the prince's arm in court and his eyeliner in private. After inquiring about the situation of business leaders in various places, Wei Yichen immediately prepared to go to the East Palace to report to the prince.

   Arriving at the East Palace, looking at the East Palace shrouded in a depressing atmosphere, Wei Yichen looked a little dignified.

  Since the prince broke his leg, his temper has become more and more moody. The female family members and servants of the Eastern Palace dare not touch the prince's bad luck, and they speak and act with trepidation.

   It's not a good thing to go on like this.

"You came!"

  The former prince was high-spirited, but now he has become perverse and violent.

  Looking at such a prince, Wei Yichen felt a bit unacceptable, and regretted: "That day, it would have been nice if I had gone to the Millennium Building with His Highness."

  The prince looked at the unconscious broken leg, his eyes were full of evil, he gritted his teeth and said: "The sixth son is dead, and the father sent a navy to wipe out the pirates, but the broken leg was just an accident!"

   "Oh, accident."

  The prince's face became grim: "Gu clearly remembers that Gu was tripped by Juli, but Chu Yao actually said it was an accident!"

  Seeing that the prince was in a bad mood, Wei Yichen quickly comforted him: "His Royal Highness calm down, please bear with it for a while. After the big event is completed, let alone Chu Yao, it is Prince Rong's residence, and it is not all about His Highness's words."

The prince's anger still persisted: "Gu just couldn't swallow this breath. The sixth child died, and a leg was broken alone, but Chu Yao did nothing. It's just that the calculation failed. !"

  Hearing this, Wei Yichen didn't know what to say.

   That’s right, it was clearly the prince’s words that provoked the sixth prince to cuckold Chu Yao, but in the end the prince and the sixth prince suffered disaster.

  If it wasn’t for the exact investigation, Chu Yao rushed to the Millennium Tower after receiving the news that the sixth prince had fallen from the building on the day of the incident, and he would have thought that Chu Yao had schemed against the prince and the sixth prince.

   "Your Highness, there will be opportunities in the future to clean up Chu Yao."

  The prince finally calmed down: "What's the current situation at the Twelve Zodiac Club?"

Wei Yichen saw that the prince began to ask about something serious, his expression relaxed, and he said solemnly: "Everyone who should come has almost come, and the Haixinghang, Guangli Cang, and Dongchanghui in Gangzhao'an, South China Sea have also arrived, but now they are all here. A steward on the bright side."

  Prince: "Isn't there a Baicao Hall?"

  Wei Yichen: "The people in Baicao Hall haven't seen me, so I guess I've gone to Beijing, but I haven't entered the Zodiac Hall."

  The prince frowned: "Other merchants, we know something about the situation, just the four that popped up suddenly, I have never heard of them before, we must find out their details."

  Wei Yichen nodded in response: "Don't worry, Your Highness, the people of the Wei family are watching."

  Prince asked again: "Where is Shennong Hall?"

  Wei Yichen: "The person in charge of the first branch of Shennong Church has already moved into the Twelve Zodiac Hall."

  The prince snorted: "A person in charge of a branch hall cannot represent Shennong hall."

  Wei Yichen showed agreement: "I think so too. Our people have been keeping an eye on Shennong Hall. As long as someone comes, we will definitely receive the news as soon as possible. I'm just worried that they won't show up."

  The prince snorted coldly: "If you don't show up now, you will show up on the day of the imperial business selection. I really want to see who the godly master of Shennong Hall is!"

  Pause, "I don't worry much about the businessman's affairs alone, and they have a higher ability to earn money. If the court wants to move them, they can only obey obediently, and there will be no big waves."

   "What I'm worried about is, what exactly does the emperor want to do?"

   Wei Yichen looked at the prince, waiting for him to continue.

The prince frowned: "Of the top ten imperial merchants before, three were on Gu's side, and two were on the fourth's side. Gu was worried that the emperor would take this opportunity to cut off Gu and the fourth son. purse."

   "Although the death of the sixth child is not a pity, because Gu, the third child, and the fifth child were all present at the scene, his death may have reminded the father, making the father think that the battle between us has involved life and death."

   "The royal family has no family ties. Father may think that one day we princes will raise butcher knives and swing at him!"

  After Wei Yichen heard this, his face became more serious: "Your Highness, it is not a good thing to be suspected by the emperor."

  The prince sneered: "Since Gu became the prince, has Gu received less suspicion?"

Wei Yichen thought for a while and said: "Don't worry, Your Highness, I will contact people from Haixinghang, Guangli Cang, Dongchanghui, and Baicaotang. Even if the emperor really wiped out the imperial merchants on our side, we still have other people." Available."

  The crown prince gave an 'hmm', and said in silence for a while: "Shen Nong Hall probably won't be able to win over, so let's let someone take over it by taking advantage of the gathering of businessmen this time!"

   Wei Yichen felt that this matter was not so easy to accomplish, moved his lips, and wanted to remind the prince, but seeing that the prince's complexion was really bad, he swallowed the words back.

   That's all, no matter how difficult it is, you have to do it.

  The Duke of Ming Dynasty is also having a similar dialogue.

  Ming Guogong looked at Dongfang Changqing: "Dongfang Changhong has entered Beijing?"

  Dongfang Changqing nodded: "Yes."

  Ming Guogong frowned: "What is he doing in Beijing at this time?"

  Dongfang Changqing hesitated for a moment, but still asked: "Father, do you think it is possible that Brother Changhong is the one behind the helm of the four commercial firms in Zhao'an in the South China Sea?"

  Ming Guogong's face turned ugly: "Except for Baicaotang, the four firms have not been in business for a few years, and the other three have been established for many years. If your guess is true, then Dongfang Changhong has deceived us very hard."

  Dongfang Changqing was also heavy in his heart. He was almost sure that one of the four commercial firms in Zhao'an was founded by Dongfang Changhong.

  Before the imperial court suppressed the Sea Turtle Gang and confiscated nearly tens of millions of taels of silver, most likely Dongfang Changhong did it deliberately for the purpose of Zhaoan, and then he could appear in the capital justifiably.

   "Father, brother Changhong is definitely going to investigate Chang Feng's death. My son is afraid that he will have a quarrel with us."

  Ming Guogong rubbed his forehead: "Let's do as I said before. Changfeng died because of the sixth prince. Dongfang Changhong wants to blame us. I still want to ask him why he let Dongfang Changfeng into the capital!"

  Dongfang Changqing intuitively feels that Dongfang Changhong is not so easy to fool, but now Dongfang Changhong doesn't even see their people, so he can only take a step forward and watch.

  In the Fourth Prince's Mansion, the Fourth Prince is also discussing with Lord Liu Hou and his son about wooing businessmen from all over the place.

   "Shen Nongtang really can't be caged, and it can't take advantage of the boss."

  Both Master Liu Hou and his son nodded. There was no other way. The status of the First Prince was too orthodox. He was both the eldest son and the elder. Even if they pulled down the Crown Prince, the First Prince was the most suitable to inherit the throne.

  Fourth prince: "How are the four families in Zhao'an in the South China Sea doing?"

   Master Liu Hou shook his head: "Those who come forward are all in charge, and they can't be the masters at all."

  The fourth prince said bitterly: "These businessmen are not slick. Just wait for me, the prince, and wait for me to make a big deal, and they will look good."
