Next to Li Chen's hand lay a note written by Nangong Shouzhong himself.
The above content is simply one sentence: No matter how much other people contribute, ordinary people are willing to help, but they only want to see His Royal Highness.
It was these words that saved Cao Kun and his gang from a bloody disaster, and also allowed Nangong Shouzhong to successfully appear in front of Li Chen.
After listening to Li Chen's words, Nangong Shouzhong buried his head deeply on the ground and said in a trembling voice: "Please, Your Highness, save the lives of the grassroots and the whole family!"
These words made Li Chen focus on Nangong Shouzhong.
"Where do you start talking about this?" Li Chen asked, "Your boss, Nangong, is the richest man in the south. This is to say modestly, but he may also be the richest man in the entire Qin Empire. He has thousands of fertile fields and gold and silver wealth that he will not be able to eat in a few lifetimes.
After all, who else could offend you?"
Nangong Shouzhong was completely willing to give up at this time. He said without hesitation: "Reporting to Your Highness, the property of the grass people is indeed rich, but to be honest, everything about the grass people seems to belong to the grass people, but in fact it has nothing to do with the grass people.
The real master of guanxi is King Wen."
"The Caomin family is just a facade that King Wen put up on the outside for outsiders to see. If the Caomin has any disrespect at all, King Wen can destroy the Caomin family in an instant."
"For more than ten years, the grassroots people have been fighting in fear every day. It is not a pity for the grassroots people to die. However, the children are young and the wives and daughters are innocent. The grassroots people really can't bear to see their families living in a precarious environment every day, so they mustered up their courage.
, please have mercy on Your Highness!”
Li Chen's face darkened and he said coldly: "That's nonsense!"
"King Wen has a reputation as a virtuous man, and he is also my uncle. Not only is he deeply trusted by his father, but his good reputation has been passed down word of mouth among the government and the public, and among the people for many years. How can he be the cruel and ruthless person you say?
man of?"
"If you slander the emperor's relatives again, you will be killed without mercy!"
Li Chen's words made Nangong Shouzhong's heart sink to the bottom.
But now things have come to a head, and it is impossible for him to turn back even if he wants to.
"Your Highness, Cao Min knows that Your Highness is suspicious of Cao Min's purpose, but please take a look at this. After reading this, Your Highness will no longer suspect that Cao Min is a spy sent by King Wen."
As he spoke, Nangong Shouzhong took out the small black box that was hidden deep in his arms and raised his hands above his head.
Li Chen said nothing.
Xiao Chuanzi, who was waiting next to him, was very clever and immediately ran over quickly to take the black box from Nangong Shouzhong's hand.
It's just that he didn't present it directly to Li Chen. Instead, he faced the box towards himself, then closed his eyes and opened the box.
Facing himself, he opened the box to prevent any mechanism inside from hurting Li Chen.
Close your eyes so as not to see the secret inside.
After a while, there was silence in the box, and no mechanism was triggered. Only then did Xiaochuanzi bring the box to Li Chen's desk.
Li Chen saw that there was only a piece of yellow silk with a sense of age in the box. It was densely written with words, but the specific content could not be seen clearly because it was not opened.
But just seeing this yellow silk fabric, Li Chen realized that he might have caught a big fish tonight.
This kind of bright yellow silk seemed to be at least several decades old at first glance, but the color was only slightly dull and not faded at all, and the overturned shading was very familiar to Li Chen.
This kind of yellow silk is only used by emperors when drafting imperial edicts.
If others use it without permission, it will be regarded as treason.
