Chapter 1575 Sweeping the black and eradicating evil
Zhu Shenxuan came back a little late, but not too late. Seeing that Chang Yu and Shi Kefa had been waiting for a long time, he was a little apologetic, but it was even harder to hide his joy. Chang Yu couldn't help but asked: "Look at the expression on the prince's face, what's going on today?"
It’s over”.
"Talking while eating," Zhu Shenxian laughed, and served wine and food. There was no one else at the dinner, just the three of them: "Let's not talk about it. Everything goes well today. I'm in a good mood."
"Let's talk about it to make our family and Mr. Shi happy," Chang Yu said with a chuckle. Zhu Shenxuan then talked about his business experience. He just signed a supply and demand agreement with the rich gentry in the city and then promoted him.
Briquettes and a set of facilities: "This winter, instead of burning charcoal, they will burn briquettes. I will open a shop as you said and promote it to the whole city..."
Shi Kefa was not interested in this kind of business experience and rarely interrupted. Chang Yu chatted with Zhu Shenxuan and repeatedly told him to pay attention to ventilation when burning coal to avoid poisoning...
"By the way, I have already borrowed the one hundred thousand capital, and the remaining matters will be handed over by Chang Shisi and Octopus." Zhu Shenxuan said and took a long breath: "I hope that I can get my capital back in half a year as you said."
Chang Yu chuckled and said: "The prince is really powerful. He raised a hundred thousand in one day. The wealthy gentry in Taiyuan City really have a profound background. In the big war at the beginning of the year, our family was not hurt even though we borrowed money and forced donations."
"The fundamental reason" he couldn't help but said sourly: "At that time, donating pay during the war was not so exciting."
Cough, Zhu Shenxuan sighed: "Is borrowing the same as donating... I don't know whether they were injured or not, but the Jin Palace has bottomed out, but after all, there are many wealthy gentry in the city. The day is declining, and only a few households are still alive.
There is some strength, but after all, a skinny camel will always have some left over when compared to a horse. No matter what, they will give it some face to the Jin Palace. One hundred thousand is not one million, so it won’t be too difficult.”
"Listening to what the prince said, could it be that these 100,000 are just cobbled together here and there? That's a lot of favors owed." Chang Yu raised his eyebrows, and Zhu Shenxuan rolled his eyes: "When I beg for food, I will eat the food of hundreds of families and go around begging."
Well, this one hundred thousand was borrowed from a relative and friend."
Chang Yu was startled and then came to his senses: "Yang family!"
Zhu Shenxuan has a fiancée named Yang Jingxiu who is as beautiful as a fairy and is one of the richest men in the city.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Shenxuan shook his head: "No, how can we borrow money before we meet each other? They are from another family. We are related to the Yang family and will soon become in-laws with the Jin Palace."
Oh, Chang Yu nodded and was suddenly startled: "What, in-laws? Could it be that he has decided to marry the princess, and the prince wants to marry them all at once?"
Zhu Shenxuan almost burst into tears: "I don't have such a big face. I walked in the door sideways. I told Zhi'e that I was my in-laws..."
Ahem, cough, cough, now it was Chang Yu's turn to be choked: "Oh, it turns out he belongs to His Royal Highness the Princess. I wonder which high family he belongs to?" Chang Yu asked, barely concealing his expression and pretending to be nonchalant.
"The Zhao family in the city is said to be related to the Yang family. Aunt Yang Jingxiu's son calls my father-in-law his uncle. Years ago, he wanted to propose marriage, but he caught up with the intruders and besieged the city and couldn't do anything. Today, my king
I brought it up again when I went to borrow money and agreed, and a few days later I formally came to propose marriage."
Zhao family? Chang Yu was startled and said casually: "It can't be the Zhao family of Zhao Yaozong, right?"
"Hey, you know Zhao Yaozong, it's him!" Zhu Shenxuan was a little surprised.
no!
Two people said in unison, one was Chang Yu, and the other was Zhu Zhi'e who suddenly rushed in. After dinner, she sent Kun Xing and others back to the other courtyard. She passed by here and learned that Chang Yu and Shi Kefa were eating here, so she wanted to come and take a look. It happened to be
When I heard it, I couldn't help but rushed in immediately.
"Why, why not?" Zhu Shenxuan was startled by the two people's reactions. Shi Kefa next to him knew that there was a good show. He picked up the tea cup and took a sip, with a faint smile on his lips.
"I, I, I don't want to get married!" Zhu Zhi'e looked aggrieved. She glanced at Zhu Shenxuan and then at Chang Yu, tears welling up in her eyes: "I want to spend more time with my mother."
"Here, you go back first. Mother knows this, don't let others laugh here." Chang Yu was fine, but Shi Kefa was still making Zhu Shenxuan feel that outsiders should pay attention to the influence.
Zhu Zhi'e glanced at Chang Yu and turned away.
"Why do you think it's not possible?" Zhu Shenxuan turned to look at Chang Yu.
"Because that fellow is not of good character and is an evil force that bullies the market and bullies men and women. Please don't push the princess into the pit of fire!" Chang Yu snorted coldly, and Zhu Shenxuan laughed: "The rich and powerful will always be punished by others.
It is objectionable, in your words, it is called hatred of the rich. Ordinary people will always think that rich people are bad people, and even the slightest thing will be infinitely magnified and become unforgivable. The Zhao family, a big family, runs various businesses. If you say
It’s impossible to do nothing, but it definitely won’t reach the level you mentioned. It’s nothing more than robbing other people’s business and being jealous and throwing dirty water behind their backs.”
"Really?" Chang Yu sneered: "Today our family was stopped by Zhao Yaozong and asked us to kneel down and call him Master Sheng, otherwise we would not be able to leave Taiyuan City. The most unacceptable thing is that our family did not provoke him at all.
, It’s just that he doesn’t like our family! If he treats our family like this, how can he be so domineering on a daily basis?”
"Uh... This, no way, such a thing happened." Zhu Shenxuan looked astonished, and a sneer appeared at the corner of Chang Yu's lips: "Does the prince think that our family is just talking nonsense?"
"No, no, I have trusted you." Zhu Shenxuan frowned and said with concern: "He didn't bother you much, did he... No, you didn't bother him much, did he?" He secretly cursed Zhao Yaozong in his heart, why was he like this?
If you don't have the eyesight to offend this master, he will probably shed his skin even if you don't die.
"Maybe I can still breathe." Chang Yu chuckled and stood up to add tea to Shi Kefa: "Our family is ordered to patrol the border to inspect not only military affairs, but also government affairs and people's sentiments. The military should be investigated for being paid for free, and officials should fight against corruption.
To do this, the same dark forces that bully men and dominate women must be swept away."
It's over, the blind Zhao Yaozong touched the little eunuch's bad luck, and the Zhao family was going to be in trouble. Zhu Shenxuan was about to smooth things over when he suddenly saw the steward of the palace rushing over: "Your Majesty, the Zhao family has sent someone to help.
You go to put out the fire, and they say that people from the Yamen ransacked the Zhao family!"
Zhu Shenxuan stood up with a roar: "Which yamen..." Then he reacted and looked at Chang Yu with a wry smile: "I haven't calmed down yet, but I won't be ransacking my house."
Chang Yu smiled: "Your Highness, do you think our family will be as knowledgeable as that guy?"
"Then why..." Zhu Shenxuan frowned.
"Crack down on gangsters and eliminate evil! This matter is not aimed at the Zhao family, but Zhao Yaozong is indeed a seducer. Now in the entire Taiyuan City, all gang-related forces that bully the strong and bully the weak will be arrested. There is no need for the governor's yamen or the guards. We are
The two battalions of my men will arrest him personally." Chang Yu smiled faintly, and Zhu Shenxuan's frown deepened: "It seems that I have to ask for a favor from you today."
Chang Yu waved his hand: "Your Majesty, you don't have to do this."
"I have just borrowed one hundred thousand taels of silver from the Zhao family and agreed to marry someone else. Wouldn't it be reviled if I stood idly by and watched!" Zhu Shenxuan was anxious: "You don't even have this kindness for me."
.
"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious." Chang Yu walked up to Zhu Shenxuan and pressed him down: "Not to mention in Taiyuan City, even in the entire Xuanda University and the entire Shanxi Province, anyone who doesn't give face will have to give it to you, Prince Jin. Our relationship is
Do you need to say this?"
Hum, Zhu Shenxuan curled his lips arrogantly: "Since I want to be a peacemaker, how about you let him go and let him kowtow to you and apologize?"
"Your Majesty is still too young," Chang Yu chuckled, "Since it's a favor, it must be valuable. If you just let it go with a casual comment, it doesn't reflect the value of the favor."
The value of favor? Zhu Shenxuan was a little dazed by Chang Yu's attention, but Shi Kefa, who was listening in, showed a playful smile. He knew Chang Yu too well and knew that this little eunuch would take the opportunity to act like a monster again.
"This favor must be worth at least one hundred thousand taels." Chang Yu smiled. Zhu Shenxuan was stunned. He was not stupid. He guessed Chang Yu's thoughts after a second thought: "Isn't this bad? It will make others misunderstand me."
The game is made by the king."
Chang Yu shook his head: "Whether the prince does this or not, some people suspect that it was you who did it, so..." He shrugged and said, "Since it's smelly, just drink this bowl of mutton soup. The mutton soup is big."
It can also warm up the body.”
Zhu Shenxuan lowered his eyebrows and thought for a moment: "What are you going to do?"
"I give you a favor, but you can't let it go so quickly, otherwise it won't be worth anything!"
"Then what?"
"The marriage with the Zhao family has been cancelled. Zhao Yaozong is not worthy of the princess." Chang Yu seemed to be casual when he spoke, but he was filled with emotion in his heart. Could it be that it was a coincidence? There was such a coincidence.
opportunity, otherwise he really wouldn't know how to intervene in this matter.
"This..." Zhu Shenxuan looked a little embarrassed: "Except for the uncles and cousins of the Zhao family and the Yang family, it is a huge favor at this time to receive one hundred thousand silver..."
"That's why I asked the prince to return a huge favor to him, and let him owe the prince a favor!" Chang Yu laughed, and Zhu Shenxuan couldn't help laughing: "That's not true."
"Isn't that so?" Chang Yu's face darkened: "Yu privately, Zhao Yaozong had a conflict with me and humiliated me. For this reason, our family sent him to prison and no one had any objection. Secondly, the Zhao family bullied men and dominated women in the village of fish and meat.
What's the problem for our family to confiscate his family and destroy his ancestors? If the prince doesn't rescue him at this juncture, his family will be ruined. Isn't this a favor as great as the sky?" He said and smiled at Zhu Shenxuan: "Our family doesn't need it.
If you frame him and ask for witnesses and physical evidence, you can bring a car with him within an hour, do you believe it?"
Of course Zhu Shenxuan believed it. There were many people from Jinyiwei and Dongchang in Taiyuan City. They usually hung out in the city and had close contact with the three religions and nine streams. Which land in the city belonged to whose family, and what scandalous things had been done by that family?
It's crystal clear.
That night, the city of Taiyuan was really turned upside down. Lao Jiu and Jia Waixiong led their men, led by Jin Yiwei spies, to arrest people everywhere. All gangs, organizations, or families with notorious reputations were arrested.
I heard that the jails of several yamen were filled overnight, causing countless people to be frightened, fearing that they would be next!
The first to bear the brunt of this was the Zhao family, a wealthy family in the city. In addition to the women and children, all the men in the family of more than 40 were arrested, including Zhao Yaozong, who had his leg broken!
