"No."
Mu Jianlin shook his head and said firmly: "Everyone in the Mu family is united and only loyal to you."
"This can be seen from the fact that the prince ascended the throne and our Mu family did not interfere. I think Mr. Lai must have already made a judgment in his mind."
"Then why did your Mu family send people to snatch my acacia wine formula?"
Zhao Ping asked again.
"It's very simple."
"Because acacia wine can make money."
"Our Mu family needs money, so we came up with the idea of cooperating with you to brew and sell acacia wine."
"If cooperation doesn't work, then use force to snatch it away."
Mu Jianlin answered very smoothly, as if he had rehearsed it many times, without any lag.
"Why?"
Zhao Ping said coldly: "Don't you know that this is bullying the people?"
"How can I not know? But I have to do it."
Mu Jianlin quickly answered, "First of all, Acacia wine is too expensive. Whoever can get the brewing formula will be qualified to become the richest man in the entire Dawei Dynasty."
"Of course, you might say, acacia wine is so expensive, how many people can afford it?"
"So once our Mu family gets the recipe, we will definitely limit the quantity of brewing."
"For example, if a hundred jars are produced every year and fifty jars are sold to the outside world, the price will definitely be more than 25,000 taels of silver."
"The other fifty altars are given to His Majesty to maintain the relationship between my father and the royal family."
"Secondly, although you are a seventh-grade wine tasting officer, the main reason is that you can brew acacia wine, which is deeply loved by His Majesty."
"If the acacia wine recipe is taken away and you are killed, I believe that Your Majesty will never stand up for you."
"The tasting officer doesn't have any real power, so he just takes it away."
"Even if our Mu family doesn't take it, other families will."
"Instead of being snatched away by those with disloyal intentions and causing trouble for the imperial court, it is better to leave it to our Mu family."
"At the very least, our Mu family are loyal ministers who sincerely protect the Dawei Dynasty."
"this……"
Zhao Ping's expression turned a little strange.
Stealing other people's things actually became reasonable.
But after thinking about it, I felt relieved.
Let alone a feudal society, even in the peaceful era of the previous life, wasn't it still the big fish eating the small fish?
Didn't you see that some big fish specialize in catching small fish with delicious meat?
Let’s talk about the acquisition first. If the acquisition fails, we will make one by ourselves, seize the market with you by virtue of the advantage of traffic, and beat you out of the blue.
The key is that Mu Jianlin said it so straightforwardly that Zhao Ping couldn't find a reason to refute.
And this kind of temperament that says anything makes Zhao Ping a little fond of him.
Mu Jianlin spoke again: "May I ask Mr. Zhao, why did you come to our Mu family this time?"
"Search Mu Mansion."
Zhao Ping said indifferently: "When the prince ascends the throne and proclaims himself emperor, he is rebelling."
"As the Crown Prince and Tutor, Mu Chen cannot forgive you just because you say a few words without showing disobedience. We must search."
"In this way, I can be worthy of the Shangfang Sword given to me by Your Majesty."
Zhao Ping also drew Shang Fang's sword to demonstrate.
"Mr. Zhao, can I ask one more question?"
Mu Jianlin said.
"Just ask."
Zhao Ping said: "If I can tell you anything, for the sake of Qiaoqiao's sake, I will definitely tell you everything."
Hit a stick and give a sweet date.
First, use Shang Fang's sword to establish his power and let the Mu family understand that he is working for the royal family and cannot be careless.
Then he explained his relationship with Mu Qiaoqiao.
Calling Qiaoqiao means that the two families are related, and as long as what the Mu family does is not particularly excessive, he can turn a blind eye.
"Thank you Mr. Zhao."
Mu Jianlin understood and thanked him in advance.
Then he said: "I want to ask Mr. Zhao, when will my father be released?"
"As long as I can't find any strong evidence in your Mu Mansion today, Master Mu will be able to return to Mu Mansion safely tomorrow."
Zhao Ping said.
"Thank you Mr. Zhao."
Mu Jianlin breathed a sigh of relief and thanked him again.
And he made a gesture of invitation and said: "Mr. Zhao, please search."
Then he ordered to other people present: "Everyone in the Mu family, please listen and do not stop Mr. Zhao and his people from searching Mu Mansion."
"In addition, if we need to cooperate, please be more active."
"This will affect whether my father can be rescued safely tomorrow, so you must be cautious and cautious."
"Anyone who dares to stop him will be charged with betraying the Mu family and be beaten to death on the spot."
"yes."
Everyone obeyed and left.
Zhao Ping also nodded secretly, admiring Mu Jianlin very much.
They are also descendants of the Mu family, and they are also direct descendants.
After looking at Mu Jianzhang, he ran to Xiping Village and saw Mu Qiaoqiao. He still refused to listen and continued to maintain his arrogant, arrogant and mighty attitude.
Give him a hundred pieces of soap and ask him to sell them within three months and bring back ten thousand taels of silver.
It is said that this is a very easy task to complete.
But what's the result?
The product was tossed around many times, but none of the soap was sold.
If I hadn't met a kind-hearted young lady, I don't know where I would have starved to death.
It's really incomparable.
Zhao Ping regretted that he should not have agreed to Mu Jianzhang and let him become a member of Xiping Village.
In comparison, Mu Jianlin is more suitable for Xiping Village.
Of course, now is not the time to care about this.
Zhao Ping retracted his thoughts and went out to tell Yuan Qing and Gao Meng to conduct a careful search and complete it before dark.
At the same time, he also took Li Hu to start the search.
Whether they have the intention to rebel or whether they have done anything to betray the Dawei Dynasty is not just a matter of words.
There must be solid evidence.
Otherwise, it would be easy to release the Mu family easily, and it would be easy to enforce the truth.
At the same time, it is easy for His Majesty to feel dissatisfied and feel that he is protecting his relatives.
Once there is no evidence, the Mu family will be able to extract from this matter.
As for how it develops in the future, it depends on how the two masters of the Mu family guide it.
At this time, Liu Mansion and Liu Dingbei were on a killing spree.
Liu Dingbei would not let go of any of Liu Lai's wives, concubines, heirs, and collaterals who were related by blood within three generations to Liu Lai.
Caught them all.
"Liu Dingbei, why do you arrest us?"
Mrs. Liu also protested: "Mr. Zhao promised us that as long as we pay the money, he will let us orphans and widows go."
"And my husband-in-law has been released and is now discussing matters with Mr. Zhao."
"You arrest us now. When my husband-in-law comes back, I will definitely ask him to write a memorial and give it to you in front of His Majesty."
"Haha, are you still pinning your hopes on Liu Lai?"
Liu Dingbei sneered, "To tell you the truth, Liu Lai is dead."
"And he was killed by Mr. Zhao himself."
"Why?"
Mrs. Liu kept shaking her head, "I don't believe it."
"Mr. Zhao is such a good person, and he also received money from our family, how could he not do something?"
"He's not that kind of person."
"snort!"
Liu Dingbei snorted coldly, "If Liu Lai doesn't commit rebellion or collaborate with the enemy and treason, Mr. Zhao will naturally be lenient."
"But once the things he did are revealed to the world, let alone Mr. Zhao, even if His Majesty personally promised to save his life, he would not be able to do it."
"What?"
Mrs. Liu was shocked again.
"So, if you want to blame it, it's your fault that you have poor eyesight and picked Liu Lai."
Liu Dingbei said indifferently: "He is the one who caused you trouble."
"Remember, keep your eyes open in the future and don't marry anyone."
"I don't even know how I died."
"Come here, arrest them all."
"As for the irrelevant personnel, all will be released."
"Select a day to go to Chang'an County to find the county magistrate to restore your good status and settle down in Chang'an County."
"Those who are willing to farm should find the county magistrate to lease the land and cultivate it honestly, so as not to cause trouble to the Dawei Dynasty."
"Those who don't want to farm can also go to the northern suburbs to find Meng Jingzhou. He will arrange tasks for you. As long as you work hard, at least you won't starve to death."
As soon as this news came out, the entire Liu family was boiling.
Although the Liu Mansion is large, there are not many people who are truly related to Liu Lai by blood, only a few dozen people.
The rest are all slaves bought by the Liu family.
Of course, there are also some accomplices like Tong Sihai who helped Liu do dirty things. Liu Dingbei found out the evidence and captured them all.
After everything was done, Liu Dingbei dragged these people to ask for execution outside the Meridian Gate.
Although many people in the city fled, there were still some brave people, or those sent by dignitaries to the streets to inquire about what was going on, and they rushed there to watch.
The scene was somewhat spectacular.
At noon, he swung his sword and asked to behead, and blood was sprinkled on the Meridian Gate.
The Liu family died.
All this caused an uproar in the capital.
The level of sensation was no less than when Zhao Ping captured all the officials in the palace.
For a time, people in the capital were panicked. They inquired about the specific truth, consulted with friends to discuss countermeasures, or went to temples to burn incense and worship Buddha to seek blessings from gods and Buddhas.
There are more escapees.
It is not an exaggeration to say that nine rooms out of ten are empty.
The capital, the most prosperous place in the entire Dawei Dynasty, seemed very depressed at this time.
The afterglow of the setting sun shines on the blood on the Meridian Gate, making it more like a purgatory on earth.
After Liu Dingbei finished handling the affairs of the Liu family, he immediately took people to the next house - the Ministry of War Shangshu Mansion without any delay.
All six ministerial books are on the list.
If he wants to clean every house, he will definitely bring peace to the Wei Dynasty.
