"Um."

After hearing the words of Ya Jiang's performance, Xu Zixian nodded coldly, without saying anything.

Ya Jiang didn't dare to say more, and said again: "Li Fengchang is in the southwest of the village, and there are more than two miles away. His subordinates took the prince over there."

Xu Zixian said: "Okay, go immediately."

This kind of majestic demeanor, this general served two generations of marquis, but it was the first time he saw it in the prince in front of him. He felt a vague aura, which was intimidating. He agreed continuously, although he felt that the marquis's mansion was extremely deficient, and he might not be able to give him much reward.

Qin Dongyang looked slightly from the side and felt something strange.

When the teeth are leading the way, when the distance is a little far, Qin Dongyang said: "The prince is very good at recruiting young people. Although he is also punished, his attitude is always gentle and friendly. He seems to be a bit harsh to these teeth."

"I have to do this." Xu Zixian said: "These people are old fried dough sticks, but they can't trust them. And they can't indulge in it. They dare to slack off in front of their fathers' affairs. I, a young man like me, did not prevail, and I gave me a smile, so these people dared to climb up the rod."

"The prince is brilliant." Qin Dongyang nodded and said no more.

When Li Yi came up, his face was already pale. He was obviously staying in the rain for more than an hour. Xu Zixian said apologetically: "Thank you for your hard work in Fengchang. You have to drink more hot ginger soup when you go back later. Be careful of the cold."

"It's not a big deal." Li Yi was very excited. Maybe the first time he did such a thing, this official who was a bit old-school scholar was actually a little excited.

Li Yi said: "As expected, as the prince did, several young people from the Li family secretly returned to the Lizhuang mansion and set up some gold, silver and copper coins in a hidden cellar. I did not disturb them as the prince told me, and then I saw them coming out of the cellar and going all the way from Sanchuankou to the Pu Family Store in the town."

"Okay, this is sure." Xu Zixian was also quite excited. Li Cheng must have hidden a lot of wealth. After the people ran away, the property could not be given up. Moreover, he might have other places to hide money. Judging from Li Cheng's experience, Qishan thieves were obviously behind him. According to Kong He's investigation, many commercial banks in the town helped sell stolen goods. Li Cheng's local benefits were also handed over to the Qishan thief behind him through the commercial banks.

Xu Zixian's judgment was that the Qishan thief would definitely come, because there must be a lot of money hidden in the town, and the interest line behind it was also very tangled and would not give up easily.

"Pu's business?" Xu Zixian frowned and said, "I know this business, and the business is not small. Is it related to Pu Shougao?"

"It should have nothing to do with it." Li Yi said: "It should be that the Seme people with the Pu surname have nothing to do with the Pu family. Pu Shouchen, the shopkeeper of the Pu family branch in the town, has never been to this business. It's related to selling dog meat with the title of sheep."

As things went smoothly, Li Yi seemed to have become more relaxed.

Pu Shougao was the leading merchant in Quanzhou, Fuzhou, including Zhangzhou and other states. His grandeur is unimaginable. It is estimated that his family has at least 100 ships in various ports, and dozens of sea ships have been commuting for many years. It is absolutely not an exaggeration to describe it as a daily wage of gold.

His family is inherited by Semu people. He has lived in Fuzhou for a hundred years and his family's capital can only be measured with billions of dollars.

There are at least tens of thousands of acres of land everywhere. There are commercial branches and a large number of land and land in wealthy cities such as the capital, Jiangling, and Pingjiang.

Because he has been rich for a long time, although he is just a merchant of Semu, his family also has a deep network of relationships in the capital. Many royal families, powerful ministers, and military generals all have good friendships with the Pu family, and even the relationship between the political and business alliance.

If this business is really related to Pu Shougao, Xu Zixian would not dare to act rashly. It is not a wise man to challenge the forces he cannot afford to attack when he is not strong enough.

"It's fine if it doesn't matter." Xu Zixian smiled and said, "Save it first, wait until the delivery person comes out of the business before arresting him, and get personal gifts."

"Yes, the prince." Li Yi, Qin Dongyang and others agreed with their fists, feeling that the prince's method of dealing with things was really clear.

"Someone went out on a boat?"

"I left yesterday." Li Yi said: "I probably went to report the news."

"Isn't it discovered that the abnormality is discovered?"

"No, don't worry, prince."

"That's good." Xu Zixian's heart suddenly thumped. He tried his best to calm down. Zhan Yan smiled and said, "The next step is to wait and face the enemy."

Xu Zixian pondered again: "If this matter goes well, we will be able to open up here."

Li Yi's eyes shone when he heard this. He felt that the prince was different from usual many days ago. After a little test, he successfully stood on the same boat with Xu Zi first. Now the prince chased Li Tiguan through a small matter, and actually involved another big fish. If everything goes well, the situation in the Marquis's Mansion will really change drastically.

It has been in Nan'an Hou Mansion for more than ten years, and Li Yi felt that the future was promising for the first time.

...

"Ba!Ba!Ba!Ba!Ba!Ba!Ba!"

The continuous striking sounds and Li Cheng's moans begging for mercy kept ringing. Many thieves around Qishan gathered, all laughing and falling backwards.

Unlike the imagined robbers, these robbers are not as vicious as having a bearded face or with a big and round waist.

They are more typical Fujianese. They are short and not strong in size, and are thin. They all have beards, but most of them have soft beards, which fall softly on their lips and beards.

Judging from the situations of Qishan stealing and walking, they may have better time at sea than on land, and they feel a little dizzy and shaking when walking.

This is true. There are more than 2,000 thieves in Qishan. Most of the time they will take boats to rob the merchant ships passing by the sea, and will also plunder residents along the coast, including clothes, robes, utensils, and of course, they are more valuable goods and cash silver, gold, and copper coins.

Of course, women are indispensable. When Chen Yutai ordered the thief to beat Li Cheng with a big stick, many women around were leaning against the door to watch. Except for a few women who were contented, most of them looked indifferent, and many of them had scars on their bodies. These women were robbed from various prefectures and forced to stay, and they were naturally injured.

Chen Yutai was drinking tea. He heard Li Cheng screaming miserably. He stepped forward a few steps and poured the hot tea on Li Cheng's back, which made the other party scream even more.

"You damn... I told you to receive and sell goods. You shouldn't be careful and not provoke people you shouldn't provoke? What are you going to provoke Nan'an Hou's prince?"

Chen Yutai became more and more annoyed as he spoke. He picked up the stick and waved it hard. Li Cheng was beaten badly, but at this time he was beaten and his flesh was flying everywhere. Soon he couldn't even scream.

Chen Yutai would kill people almost always, and would open his subordinates to his heart. When he was angry, no one dared to persuade him. Even if he knew that it was important to call Li Cheng, no one dared to come forward to persuade him.

"I dare to ruin my affairs anymore, and I will cut off your heart and drink." Chen Yutai wiped a handful of flesh and blood on his face. He didn't care, but just swept his eyes around.

Many people who were swept by him were frightened and everyone lowered their heads.

"Second, you bring two hundred people back with Li Cheng, and raise the deposited silver I put there, 11,700 taels, one tael less, I will cut a finger. Then burn the marquis's villa in the house for me. If that prince is here, kill him for me, and chop his head back, and I will use it as a bean pot."

There were several pots beside Chen Yutai’s bed, and they were all made of the heads of his enemies. In this regard, he was not talking nonsense casually.

Chen Yuyong grinned and said, "I don't want your money, but my own head is also very valuable."

Chen Yutai laughed and said fiercely: "Your head is only worth a thousand guan. Is my brother so worthless?"

Chen Yuyong stood up lazily and said, "It's just a small matter. Brother is waiting for money at home, but it's a big deal. This line is broken..."

"The wind is a little nervous this time. We'll shrink on the island for a while and wait for news from the sea."

Chen Yuyong thoughtfully and said, "I understand."

"Remember, I must have chopped the prince and brought his head back. After all, it was a royal family and a descendant of Taizu of the Great Wei Dynasty. It must be very different to use his head as a chamber pot."

Chen Yuyong responded with a smile, but he didn't care.

Qishan is easy to defend and difficult to attack. There are ports everywhere entering the sea. It is a natural Lianggang Island. Most of the island is surrounded by mountains and dense forests. On one side of the sea is controlled by Chen Yutai, and on the other side is a plain area. There are thousands of islanders and officers and soldiers stationed. Chen Yutai once said that if he really attacks, officers and soldiers will definitely not be their opponents.

To maintain the current situation, he does not want to force the court too much. The premise for everyone to be fine is that Chen Yutai is in a good mood. Whoever makes him feel uncomfortable will naturally chop off someone's head.

The prince of a royal marquis who had not inherited his title was really not taken seriously by Chen Yutai.

...

"Li Fu." Li Cheng, who had just taken Jinchuangyao and looked very upset, gritted his teeth and said, "Whenever you have a chance on the shore, run away quickly."

Li Fu said: "What does Dad mean?"

Li Cheng said: "We are just a use now. We will lead the team to the town to raise money and bring people to the Hou Mansion to kill the prince. After these things are done, the news will be very high, and Boss Chen will also hide in Qizhou and stop moving. So we still have birds? I am over fifty years old and I will live for a few days. If you have the chance, you should run away quickly."

Li Fu regretted, "If I had known that I wouldn't have provoked Xiu Niang, I wouldn't have caused such trouble."

"That's not the case." Li Cheng smiled grimly and said, "If we don't provoke the prince, he will also provoke us! Xiuniang is just an introductory person, and the prince deliberately sold us a flaw. This young man is terrible, so terrible."
