Dahan first prince

Chapter 154 Alas~ Siblings cannibalize

Listening to Chen Ping's secretive conclusion, Liu Bang's expression changed all over the place, and finally he raised his head with a gloomy face.

"In addition to this memorandum, Marquis Feng also said that he asked the postmen to ask me: how should I deal with King Zhao."

"Yesterday, King Lu Wan of Yan came to report: In the first month of spring, Chen Xi sent envoys north out of Yanmen, please lead the Huns cavalry southward as foreign aid."

"If King Yan's investigation is true, and the Xiongnu really sent troops south, I'm afraid that the war on behalf of Zhao will not be settled in March or May..."

Sighing slightly gloomyly, Liu Bang shook his head again, staring at Chen Ping with dark eyes for a long time.

When Chen Ping couldn't help feeling guilty, Liu Bang pursed his lips and nodded, and sat back on the soft couch again.

"Changling is the place where my body will rest forever after a hundred years. If the crown prince and Changling are assassinated, I must ask!"

"However, the battle between Dai and Zhao is continuous, and I have no skills to avatar, and the class teacher is nowhere in sight."

"I want to send Marquis Qu Ni back to Chang'an, and pass my word to the crown prince: This time, the Tian clan in Changling raised grain prices, the Marquis of Huaiyin assassinated the prince, and the ambiguity between King Zhao and the Tian clan will be dealt with by the prince!"

"During this trip, Marquis Qu Ni should always remember: the crown prince will reply immediately when he hears my dictation; if he gets the crown prince's reply, Marquis Qu Ni will return immediately!"

"Don't let the prince ask the queen and Marquis Feng to teach you about this matter!"

Saying this with a solemn face, he waved Liu Bang to the side lightly, and immediately a soldier stepped forward and handed a scepter with a yak tail to Chen Ping.

"minister!"

"I would like to accept the edict!"

After solemnly bowing to Liu Bang, and bowing deeply to the stick, Chen Ping stretched out his hands with a solemn face, and took the stick.

However, after receiving the scepter, Chen Ping did not rush out of the military tent, but looked at Liu Bang with hesitation.

"I would also like to ask your Majesty to show you: what should be the outline of my trip?"

Asked with a guilty conscience, Chen Ping hurriedly added: "Changling Tian's family has copied all the families for the queen, and the crown prince Yu Changling Tian's..."

"Could it be that what your majesty wants to ask is this time, the prince's strategy of promoting the 'grain market' to stabilize the price of grain in Guanzhong?"

After Liu Bang nodded his head indifferently, Chen Ping asked hesitantly: "Marquis of Huaiyin..."

"When His Majesty was about to set off for the expedition, he sent Marquis Jiang back to Chang'an to inform Marquis Feng about the Marquis of Huaiyin."

"This time, the Marquis of Huaiyin sent his men to assassinate the crown prince. If we talk about the law of the country, the Marquis of Huaiyin will rebel against us, and he will be the clan!"

"However, the crown prince is still young. If the crown prince is asked to kill Huaiyin himself, he may be stigmatized as 'killing heroes', or it may be detrimental to the crown prince's prestige..."

Asking this question with a little confusion, Chen Ping looked at Liu Bang with hesitation.

"If your majesty has no intention of being easy to store, then he will protect the prince from this stigma."

"However, if His Majesty still wants to change the reserve, why did he say 'Let the crown prince decide how to deal with King Zhao'?"

After expressing all the confusion in his heart, Chen Ping shook his head and bowed to Liu Bang again.

"Your Majesty is stupid, please make it clear..."

But seeing Liu Bang heard this, he let out a long sigh with a desolate expression, narrowed the corners of his eyes slightly, and was dazed for a long time with dilated pupils.

In the end, there was a 'crack' sound from the burning firewood in the fireplace beside him, pulling Liu Bang back from his thoughts.

Seeing Liu Bang shaking his head and sighing again, he got up and put his hands behind his back.

"The matter of easy storage is related to the foundation of the country. The war is not yet settled, so it is not appropriate to act too hastily."

"Qu Nihou, but go, and hear the crown prince face-to-face with my mouth, and get the crown prince's countermeasures and return it."

"No matter how the crown prince deals with the matter of sending soldiers to assassinate in Huaiyin, Marquis Qu Ni only needs to hear about it, turn back, and present himself to me."

"And King Zhao..."

Speaking of this, Liu Bang paused for a while, and sighed again.

"Ugh······"

"Brotherhood..."

"Brotherhood..."

After pondering for a while, Liu Bang sighed with vicissitudes on his face, and looked at Chen Ping with a faint tiredness.

"If the crown prince wants to offend the king of Zhao, or if he doesn't, and spreads scandalous rumors in Chang'an, Qu Nihou will take Zhao Wang and Qi Ji back to Handan on the Son of Heaven's Day."

"If not guilty, Qu Nihou will report to Fenghou: the matter of King Zhao's alliance with the Tian family must not be discussed in the theory of things."

"If the prince is not guilty, he will defend King Zhao..."

After speaking, Liu Bang paused again, and shook his head with a self-deprecating smile.

"Hey······"

"The queen is here, and the king of Zhao ordered the Tian family to interfere with the grain price in Guanzhong. How can the crown prince not offend?"

After saying these words as if talking to himself, Liu Bang raised his head with a sneer: "In short, Qu Nihou only needs to keep these three things in mind during his trip."

"One: Ask the prince face-to-face about the detailed strategies and strategies for stabilizing grain prices, and present them to me face-to-face."

"Second: According to my oral instructions, Prince Xu will personally judge Huaiyin's crime, and observe the prince's countermeasures, and present it to me face-to-face."

"Third: Order the crown prince to decide the matter of King Zhao and Tian's sticking together; if the crown prince wants to offend King Zhao, he will bring King Zhao and Qi Ji back to Handan in the name of 'Your Majesty orders King Zhao to return to the country'. If the crown prince does not commit the crime, Let it go."

"Regardless of whether the crown prince has committed any crimes against the King of Zhao, Xiao He must be told clearly: this matter must not be spread to the outside world!"

Speaking of this, Liu Bang's face already had a hint of warning on it.

"Qu Nihou, do you understand everything?"

Hearing Liu Bang's extremely specific mission description, Chen Ping repeated it silently several times before finally giving Liu Bang his hand.

"Sir, take orders..."

Liu Bang nodded slightly with a gloomy expression, sat back on the soft couch, and rubbed his forehead wearily.

"In addition to this, when Qu Nihou returns to Chang'an, he can also explore the water conservancy renovation in Guanzhong, and what the prince has done since I went to war."

"If there is anything wrong, you can tell Xiao He alone; if there is nothing, everything will be as before..."

After saying this, Liu Bang couldn't suppress the tiredness that came like a tide anymore, and he floated back and lay down.

After Liu Bangping lay on the soft couch and waved his hands feebly, Chen Ping bowed deeply to Liu Bang, straightened his waist, and left the hall with a scepter in his hand.

The maids and eunuchs who were waiting beside the soft couch retreated quietly, and Liu Bang, who was paralyzed on the soft couch, finally let out a long and exhausted sigh.

"Easy Storage..."

"Abandoned..."

"Hey······"

·
The screen turns back to Weiyang Palace in Chang'an, and Phoenix Palace in the Crown Prince's palace.

As expected by Liu Ying, Xiao He sent someone into the palace almost immediately when he heard Liu Ying's announcement that "I plan to come to visit", and told Liu Ying, "Don't!I will do it myself! '.

Under Xiao He's "pretty hard to turn down", Liu Ying had no choice but to change into a more formal dress, and waited for the arrival of Xiao He and Yang Chengyan in the side hall of the West Hall of the Crown Prince's Palace.

After the monarch and his ministers bowed to each other and sat down again, Liu Ying expressed her thoughts almost immediately.

"Yesterday, I heard Shaofu's words: In the past ten days, when Shaofu was selling rice to the people in the grain market, the people asked about 'buying Shaofu's grain with three baht'."

Saying that, Liu Ying did not forget to glance at Yang Chengyan, then turned her head and looked at Xiao He with a little force.

"Guji ordered the Shaofu: Don't explicitly refuse to accept the three baht of money, just prevaricate with words such as insufficient sex, insufficient weight, etc., don't accept the three baht of money."

"Marquis Feng thinks, is this possible?"

Seeing that Liu Ying said these words so bluntly without making any foreshadowing, Xiao He was subconsciously taken aback for a moment.

When he saw Liu Ying's eyes, there was a touch of indescribability, Xiao He finally raised his head with an uncertain expression, and bowed to Liu Ying.

"It's very good to deal with it like this at home..."

Seeing that Xiao He said the phrase 'very good' in a nonchalant manner, without any intention of discussing the 'circulation value of three baht coins' in depth, Liu Ying raised her eyebrows a little.

Looking at Yang Chengyan, seeing that Yang Chengyan also lowered his head with hesitation, the faint smile on Liu Ying's face finally turned into nothingness in an instant.

"Could it be that Xiao Xiang still doesn't care about this?"

Asking this question in a slightly reproachful tone, Liu Ying's complexion sank, and she changed the subject abruptly.

"In the first month of spring, Gu wanted to rectify the Tian family in Changling, and shocked the grain merchants in various places in Guanzhong to stabilize grain prices."

"Because of this, I went to Huitianzizhuang alone and was assassinated in Changling."

"At that time, Gu used the policy of stabilizing grain prices to Xiang Xiang, and Xiao Xiang said: Gu's policy is too violent, it is tantamount to killing the chicken and taking the eggs; you can shill the grain merchants in Guanzhong to sell rice at the grain market at the price of [-] yuan."

Speaking of this, Liu Ying's gaze towards Xiao He was already full of sternness.

"Today, ten days have passed, and in Chang'an's grain market, only Shaofu sells the appraised grain and rice for the common people to eat."

As she said that, Liu Ying turned her eyes to Yang Chengyan again, and continued to say to Xiao He: "I got more than 40 stones of grain from the Tian family alone, and the [-] stones used to build the canal with the Shaofu, and lost the father's army with Xiao. The grain and grass are [-] shi."

"The remaining 20 stones were sold in the grain market for the Shaofu. It has only been ten days today, and there are still less than [-] stones left."

After saying these words in a serious manner, Liu Ying leaned her upper body forward a little and stared into the depths of Xiao He's eyes.

"In another ten days, the food and rice bento in Shaofu will be sold out, and there will be no cheap food in the food market set up by Gu."

"Dare to ask Xiao Xiang: Apart from the lonely strategy of 'killing the chicken to get the eggs', does Xiao Xiang have another clever strategy to calm the price of grain in Guanzhong?"

"If you don't see it, in the middle of the year and summer, the price of rice in Guanzhong will exceed [-] renminbi, and there will be nearly a million households in Guanzhong. Don't they all have no rice to survive, and they have to change their sons to eat each other?"

"In this way, when the father pacifies Dai and Zhao, and the class teacher returns to the court, how should I face the father?"

"Xiao Xiang, you have a lot of trust in your father, how can you explain it?!"

After saying that, Liu Ying looked at Xiao He, and there was no trace of respect in her eyes!
That pair of powerful eyes set off Liu Ying's still childish face, which didn't make Xiao He and Yang Chengyan feel the slightest bit abrupt...
Seeing that Xiao He was about to speak, but finally lowered his head with shame on his face, Yang Chengyan couldn't help being a little curious while sighing.

"At home, what strategy do you want to do to equalize the price of grain, but you actually make Marquis Feng, who also said, 'kill the chicken to get the egg'?"

Before Yang Chengyan could figure out why, Xiao He sighed with shame on his face, and solved Yang Chengyan's confusion.

"Today in Guanzhong, except for the households in the grain market, which sell Shaofu's grain to the people at a par price of two thousand renminbi, the price of rice in other places is more than four thousand renminbi."

"I also know that if you sit back and watch the price of grain continue to rise without taking any action, the price of grain in Guanzhong will rise to six thousand or seven thousand yuan in summer and May."

"Even so, I still think what my family said when I came forward..."

Speaking of this, Xiao Heman shook his head in uncertainty, and bowed to Liu Ying again.

"It is true that the family wants to sell cheap grain with Shaofu."

"However, today's Shaofu has no food and rice to sell, and the treasury is used for conquest by His Majesty's army, so it is unable to help the family's strategy."

"Even so, shouldn't the family act as the heir apparent to commit banditry and robbery, robbing grain merchants of rice to sell people's food?"

As he said that, Xiao He also became a little emotional.

"Your Majesty once clearly ordered the world: Jia people are not allowed to wear silk, ride in cars, and pay heavy taxes to humiliate and slander merchants. This is indeed the foundation of our country."

"Ranchen, dare to ask your family: If there are no merchants running in Guanzhong and Guandong, if there is always something, and there is nothing when it is easy to go, how will the world's goods be circulated?"

"How do the money from the Qi land, the utensils from the Chu land, and the salt from the Jing land enter the Guanzhong?"

"And why should the rice and grain from Guanzhong and the brocade and silk from Shu land flow to the east of the Guandong for the people to use?"

"If today, because of the high price of grain, the family seizes the rice from the grain merchants by force, all the merchants in the world will be saddened by rabbits and foxes, and they will stop doing business?"

Saying these words in a serious tone, Xiao He finally bowed to Liu Ying with a firm face.

"Chen, please think twice!"

"At worst, the family should pay the money from the Shaofu to buy rice from the grain merchants, and then sell it to the people in Guanzhong."

"In this way, the principle of clearing the property and goods will be combined without damaging the family's prestige..."

Hearing Xiao He's words, Liu Ying's expression did not change, but her heart kept sneering.

Buy grain from those grain merchants who drive up grain prices, and then resell it to the people?

Thanks to Xiao He who can tell!

——Nowadays, the price of grain in Guanzhong has been driven up to about [-] yuan per stone by this group of street lamps!
If you don't kill pigs for the New Year, do you still want Liu Ying to suffer from this stupid loss, buying it from a grain merchant at a price of [-] yuan per stone, and then selling it to the people in the entire Guanzhong at a price of [-] yuan per stone?
Not to mention whether Liu Ying is so stupid, whether she would do this kind of loss-making business of "changing hands and losing half", even if Liu Ying really wanted to, there is no money!
——In the past ten days, the Shaofu sold [-] shi of grain, and only collected less than [-] million yuan, and the remaining [-] shi can be sold for about [-] million yuan.

But with these 10,000 million yuan, plus Shaofu's inventory of less than [-] million yuan, they can also buy [-]+ stones of grain from those grain merchants.

With this 10,000+ stone grain, do you want to stabilize the price of grain in Guanzhong?
——There are more than [-] households and millions of people in Guanzhong, and the annual grain consumption is at least ten million stones!

Counting the entire population of Guanzhong, one hundred thousand shi of grain would not be enough to feed these millions of people for a day!
However, after a short moment of thinking, Liu Ying looked at Xiao He with a little cunning without warning.

"No money..."

"Hey hey..."

"Young mansion, there is plenty of 'money'..."

Slandering with malicious intentions, Liu Ying did not forget to put on a 'confused' expression on her face, and in the end, it was extremely 'difficult' to nod to Xiao He.

"What Xiang Xiang said is true."

"Gu also thought that the grain in the hands of grain merchants should be bought with money."

"However, that's all. I'm afraid there may be bad businessmen with malicious intentions who want to continue to raise the price of grain, but refuse to sell grain to the Shaofu."

Speaking of this, Liu Ying finally nodded with a 'stern face', and looked at Xiao He with a hint of prayer in her eyes.

"I also ask Xiao Xiang to write a decree and issue it to Guanzhong;"

"—For those who are merchants, the grain storage should not exceed a hundred stones; if there is any violation, all the grain in hand should be sold on the market before the Jiawu (first day) in the spring and March."

"Wait until Jiawu in spring and March, if there are still households with commercial registration who store more than a hundred shi of rice privately, all of their stored grain will be lost. In addition, for every shi of extra rice stored, they will be fined forty taels of money!"
