"Your Highness!"
Outside the door, the old beggar's voice sounded.
"What's the matter?" Zhou Che asked.
"A lot of people came outside the door and wanted to storm the Qian Mansion, but Madam is stopping them." The old beggar's voice was a little panicked.
He didn't know the specific relationship between Zhou Che and Huangfu Yun, but he just thought they were husband and wife.
There was a brief silence inside.
Immediately, the door opened and Zhou Che walked out.
Behind him, Qian Hongxue was lying on a chair, his hands still bound.
After the door closed, the old beggar quickly followed Zhou Che: "Your Highness, that Qian Feng confessed about the Zhen family."
"What did he say?" Zhou Che asked.
"He said that the amount of salt sold by Zhen's family did not match the output of the salt mine leased to him by the imperial court."
"After the fifth prince sent someone to conduct a secret investigation, they obtained the shipping account book, which can prove that the Zhen family opened a private salt field."
"So, Mrs. Zhen has no choice but to submit and obey the fifth prince's words."
Zhou Che's eyes flashed: So that's it!
In Daxia, salt fields were owned by the royal family and managed by the court. Private individuals could mine and sell them, but they had to obtain court approval first and pay the corresponding rent.
To put it bluntly, the owner of the salt field contracts the salt mine to private development.
Among them, the royal family is the owner and takes the largest share; the court is the owner and takes the management fee; the private developer and seller is the production and sales end and takes the last payment.
However, if anyone dares to bypass the court, develop privately and obtain profits, he will be punished by confiscating his home and exterminating his family!
These days, there are actually quite a few people stealing salt mines from salt fields.
But those who can do this kind of business are all powerful men. They can manage relationships from top to bottom and work with local officials to deceive the royal family and the court.
Zhen is just one of them.
On weekdays, if there is any problem, they can overcome it with their energy.
The mistake this time was that Zhou Ming took the evidence and a prince who had established an heir stabbed him out. Who dared to carry it for Zhen?
After clarifying all this, a smile appeared on Zhou Che's face.
door.
Although the troops arrived, they did not dare to enter by force, and the conflict had not yet broken out.
Zhou Ming was worried and came to the scene in person.
However, he was in the rear and did not come to the front to show his face.
"What's going on? Why don't you go in? Call Jiang Hanlong over here!"
"yes!"
After a moment, a tall man with a height of eight feet and a majestic body walked up to Zhou Ming.
This person is Jiang Hanlong, Zhou Ming's confidant, who is responsible for commanding the martial arts for him.
"I have met His Highness."
"You idiot!"
Seeing Jiang Hanlong, Zhou Ming scolded him: "Standing at the door and refusing to go in, are you here to guard the door for him or to take a dump?!"
"Your Highness, the Sixth Prince is inside." Jiang Hanlong looked confused: "Are we going to do it directly and kill him now?"
"Stupid!" Zhou Ming kicked him: "Can't you just find two people to control him and kill the others!?"
The struggle to establish an heir in Daxia was almost obvious.
But there is a red line that must not be stepped on - that is to directly draw a sword and fight!
If you don't engage in a struggle, you'll end up stabbing your brothers with a knife, but you'll end up angering the emperor and being pinned to death by your father.
Unless, you can send your brother and dad on the road together.
"yes!"
Jiang Hanlong waved his hand and shouted directly: "Come in!"
At the door, the conflict finally broke out.
But Gai Yue was not someone to be trifled with. He kicked one of the leaders away and unsheathed his sword: "If you come any closer, don't blame me for being rude!"
"Everyone else is just a mob, just kill this person first!" Jiang Hanlong shouted.
Among the crowd, a dozen strong people walked out, and another dozen people dressed as rangers walked out.
Obviously, he is the elite of this group of people!
Huangfu Yun frowned.
The group of people brought by Zhou Che dared to attack the Qian family because they were supported by deep hatred and the Qian family was relatively weak.
If they really had to fight against the group of professional warriors in front of them, there would be a huge gap in courage, ability, and numbers.
In fact, this is also true.
The people blocking the door, who looked like a gang of beggars, looked nervous and subconsciously crowded together.
Zhou Ming sat on the horse, took a look with the torch, and couldn't help but laugh: "Where did Lao Liu find a bunch of beggars?"
"Qian Ting is incompetent! He actually let a group of beggars do it for him!"
After these dozens of elites, someone else took out a long bow and secretly aimed at Gai Yue.
"Whoever dares to take a step inside, I will kill him!"
Inside the house, a loud shout sounded.
Zhou Che connected the tail of the Jiuge sword to its sheath, turning it into a long weapon.
Huangfu Yun and Gai Yue turned around at the same time.
"Everyone get behind me!"
After Zhou Che said this without turning his head, he walked to the front and blocked the door.
Huangfu Yun's beautiful eyes widened, and a rare charming smile appeared on her little mouth: "This boy has really grown up~"
Gai Yue accompanied him with his sword.
The others looked ashamed.
Keng!
Zhou Che put Chang Ge on the ground and looked at the hundreds of warriors in front of him:
"Why, are you coming here now to have fun with His Highness?"
"Come! I know there are archers hidden in your crowd, just shoot me in the chest!"
"You guys are carrying swords, feel free to hit me on the head!"
Crunch——
Someone subconsciously tightened the bowstring.
"I'm your mother!"
The leader next to him slapped him with his backhand: "You don't want to live anymore, don't drag me with you!"
If you really want to take action, you have to wait for Zhou Ming's order.
"how?"
Zhou Che saw that everyone was motionless and sneered: "Don't you dare to shoot? Then why are you holding your bows?"
"Don't you dare to chop? Then what are you doing with swords?"
"One by one, put your hand into your crotch and touch it to see if the guy is still okay!"
After saying that, he held Jiuge and moved forward.
Jiang Hanlong frowned: "Your Highness, Sixth Highness, if you..."
"go away!"
Before he finished speaking, Zhou Che scolded: "Who do you think you are? Are you worthy of talking to His Highness? Let your master come!"
Zhou Che raised his head and looked at the back of the crowd: "Brother Five Emperors, I know you are here, don't sit back and be a bastard!"
"Your good-for-nothing sixth brother dares to stand in front of others, but you hide behind and eat shit, do you agree with your identity?"
Zhou Ming's face suddenly fell.
Now that Zhou Che has called his name, he can't make sense if he hides anymore.
Patting the horse, You walked out under the protection of a group of soldiers, and said in a calm tone: "Sixth brother, you are doing these dirty deeds because of your status as a prince, aren't you afraid of being expelled from the clan?"
"Is fear useful?" Zhou Che laughed back: "I used to be so scared that I didn't dare to touch a woman's buttocks, but you said that I raped your fiancée and wanted to depose me and send me to the army."
"Now I'm brave enough to touch her all over her body in front of my father and you. Can you bite me?"
"I came to the Qian Mansion to collect debts openly and honestly."
"As for bleeding and all that... you are still a prince after all. Don't you know that the court never cares about such things?"
Zhou Ming's nose was almost filled with smoke.
No matter what, if Zhen Wan suffers a loss in public, it must be him who is embarrassed.
This matter cannot be argued over, and the more we argue about it, the more embarrassing it becomes.
He could only shout: "It's good to know that the court doesn't care. What are you waiting for? Just give it to me!"
"Yes!" Jiang Hanlong and others rushed behind Zhou Che.
Zhou Che swung his long song and killed him.
"Soldiers, come forward!" Zhou Ming shouted.
"Here!"
The guard soldiers raised their shields and swords to directly surround and control Zhou Che himself.
Gai Yue and Huangfu Yun jumped into the battle and protected him: "What should we do?"
