Chapter 41 Grain Merchant
In the front hall of the mansion, Bei Jinchuan looked at the grain merchants.

The leaders are the Liu family and the Li family. Recently, Linzhou did not know where the news came, saying that the imperial court was going to force the purchase of grain merchants to lower the price of grain.

All the grain merchants panicked. If the imperial court takes away all the grain in their hands, they will die.

Early this morning, they heard that the entire Shu family had been arrested, and immediately couldn't sit still. They quickly found the Liu family and went to the magistrate to meet King Qi together.

All the grain merchants sat down anxiously. They looked at King Qi's expressionless face and secretly guessed what King Qi meant.

The Patriarch of the Liu family, Liu De, smiled with his face close to him.

"I don't know that the king of Qi came to Linzhou. I didn't pay a visit in time. I hope His Highness will forgive me."

Liu De and all the grain merchants apologized to King Qi for replacing wine with tea.

Bei Jinchuan looked up at their hypocritical faces and smiled lightly.

"Is there anything important for the Patriarchs to find this king?"

Seeing that King Qi was so straightforward, everyone looked at each other, hesitated and no one spoke.

Liu De stepped forward, "I heard that the Shu family offended His Highness, and they have been arrested now?"

He carefully looked at King Qi's expression, and asked insincerely.

Bei Jinchuan fumbled for the plate ring on his thumb and looked up at the expectant eyes of everyone.

"The lower members of the Shu family committed crimes and despised the emperor's prestige. Naturally, they should be punished."

Alarm bells rang loudly in everyone's hearts, and many grain merchants panicked.

King Qi is killing chickens to scare monkeys? !

"Your Highness is wise."

Liu De immediately flattered her.

"The Shu family deserved what they deserved. Your Highness executed it well."

Only then did the crowd react and echoed repeatedly.

Then, Liu De rolled his shrewd eyeballs, revealing a flattering smile.

"Your Highness, I came here today to help His Highness and solve his problems."

Li Yi, the owner of the Li family, also hurriedly followed up.

"Your Highness, my Li family is willing to listen to His Highness's orders."

Both the Liu family and the Li family expressed their views, and the other grain merchants echoed to express their loyalty.

Bei Jinchuan sat on the top and watched the grain merchants below, who were very boring with what you said and what I said.

At this time, Liu De cupped his hands and said.

"To show the sincerity of my Liu family, I specially prepared some gifts for His Highness, I hope His Highness likes it."

As he spoke, a faint light flashed in his cloudy eyes, he clapped his hands, and a group of graceful young girls and handsome young men filed in.

They are not very old, and they are all good-looking. They are all young and ignorant, standing in the room with their heads down, a little at a loss.

Liu De stroked his beard, looked at the expressionless King Qi sitting on it, and said triumphantly.

As for men, they just like women and money. No matter what, King Qi is just a vigorous young man. Seeing these beauties, although he doesn't say anything on the face, he must be happy in his heart.

"These are gifts I carefully selected for His Highness, I wonder if His Highness will be satisfied."

He bowed his hands and waited for a compliment from King Qi, and then he took the opportunity to make a few requests.

The grain merchant next to him didn't expect Liu De, an old fox, to secretly give Qi Wang Saimei behind their backs, beating their chests and stamping their feet one by one, making a mistake, a mistake.

A handsome young man plucked up his courage and stepped forward, wanting to serve King Qi.

Du Ruo stopped him expressionless, a cold light flashed from the sword at his waist, and the boy was so frightened that he collapsed on the ground.

Bei Jinchuan sneered, unable to tell what expression was on his face, his deep eyes gradually turned cold, he fumbled for the ring on his hand with his thumb, and looked at Liu De playfully.

"Do you know what crime the Shu family committed?"

Liu De's heart skipped a beat, and the smile on his face froze, with a bad premonition in his heart.

"The Patriarch of the Shu family framed the prince, and the Shu family's daughter-in-law secretly raises male pets, according to Bei's law, she will be executed."

For the next few words, Bei Jinchuan paused every word, and his tone was calm, but Liu De's heart was inexplicably cold, looking at King Qi's indifferent eyes, panic appeared on his shrewd face.

He kowtowed immediately, and the young girl next to him also knelt down.

"Your Highness, forgive me, the grassroots have no such intention."

The obese body was crawling on the ground, looking a little ridiculous.

He didn't expect King Qi to be so reticent.

The children of big families will more or less have some small hobbies, some people like to get pleasure from abuse, and some people like to raise some noodles.

He had seen a delicate young man with King Qi all the time, and he thought that King Qi was good at it, so he specially prepared a lot of handsome young men for King Qi, but he didn't expect to kick him on the iron board.

Bei Jinchuan walked slowly in front of him and stopped.

"Then Patriarch Liu has to remember, this king doesn't like other people doing such messy things, if there is a next time, he will be beheaded to show the public!"

A cold atmosphere enveloped Liu De, he felt as if someone was strangling his neck, unable to breathe, a strong sense of suffocation.

The powerful aura on King Qi's body made the air thin, and Liu De's head was dripping with cold sweat.

"Yes, yes, what His Highness said is that the grass people will never dare again."

The group of teenagers and girls were hurriedly driven off, at this moment no one dared to touch Qi Wang's head, and the grain merchants looked at each other in blank dismay.

Seeing this, Qin Yang hurried out to smooth things over.

"With everyone's help, the food problem in Linzhou has been solved, but the water source is still a serious problem. There is no food without water, and the refugees will make trouble sooner or later."

Tan Yang said with a heavy face. These days he sent people to search for water sources, but although Linzhou is so big, many rivers have dried up, and there is not a single drop of water.

If it goes on like this, within seven days, Linzhou will become a city of the dead.

The atmosphere in the room was dignified, and everyone's faces were not very good-looking.

At this time, Cixi suddenly broke in.

"Your Highness, it's not good, the young master went to Baicao Forest and hasn't come back yet."

The little girl's face was full of anxiety, her eyelids kept twitching just now, and she had a bad premonition in her heart,

It was dark now, and the young master hadn't been seen yet. She was worried about his injury and worried about his accident, so she hurried in without caring so much.

"What did you say!"

Bei Jinchuan stood up abruptly, his face gloomy and ugly.

"The young master went to Baicao Forest five hours ago, and now it's dark and the young master hasn't come back yet, I'm worried..."

Before the resignation was finished, Bei Jinchuan hurried out like a gust of wind, leaving a group of people looking at each other in blank dismay.

Looking at the darkening sky, Bei Jinchuan felt worried, and soon he arrived at Baicao Forest.

Walking into the depths of Baicao Forest, his heart became more and more heavy. Seeing the traces of fighting on the ground, his eyes darkened.

Following the traces on the ground, he came all the way to the edge of the cliff, and saw a thrilling scene, a boa constrictor attacked the boy with its tail flicking.

His heart seemed to be about to stop, his pupils shrank suddenly, his hands and feet were cold for a moment, and he felt flustered for the first time.

"Be careful-"

He tried his best to run towards the boy, but before he could utter a voice, he watched helplessly as the boy was thrown into the cliff.

The blood froze for a moment, and he felt that it was difficult to breathe at this moment, and the calm on his face was broken.

He jumped up and wanted to catch the boy, who would have thought that the boa constrictor lashed out with its tail fiercely.

Bei Jinchuan was forced to stop, watching the young boy's frail figure falling into the cliff like a butterfly with broken wings, his heart was full of anger.

The murderous aura bursting out from around even the boa constrictor sensed the danger, and it moved quickly and wanted to escape here quickly, but it didn't expect to be chopped off by King Qi's sword.

The people next to him who were shaken by the powerful sword retreated back again and again, and thick smoke rose in all directions for a while.

The smoke dissipated, and Bei Jinchuan walked out step by step with the sword in hand. The boa constrictor fell to the ground, and blood splashed drop by drop along the blade.The ink in his eyes rolled, and the hostility was about to overflow.
