e Prince.""I, Jiang Zhou, pay my respects to Your Highness."The Ninth Prince swallowed nervously. Thankfully, he hadn't forgotten basic etiquette and said with a fist clasped humbly, "This prince gree...Chapter 593 is good, very good.
“Good, very good, excellent!”
Xu Changqing's attitude completely embarrassed Li Yuhou and thoroughly enraged him.
He pointed at Xu Changqing's nose, his anger reaching its peak as he laughed, "You may have the backing of the Crown Prince, but I am still a prince of the Great Qin court, the Crown Prince's half-brother. You dare to defy me like this Today, I shall take your head, and no one will dare speak out for you."
After finishing his words, Li Yinhu roared, "Come on!"
Behind Li Yinhu, an eager guard stepped forward and responded loudly, "Yes, sir!"
In a fit of rage, Li Yinhu didn't care who stepped forward. He directly ordered: "Tie this dog up and beat him thirty lashes before throwing him out onto the street!"
Although enraged, Li Yinhǔ managed to retain his composure.
He was responsible for suppressing the White Lotus sect in the Jing-Ji region. Using this as an excuse, he raided the Liu family. Now that he has received so much silver, as long as he satisfies the prince's appetite, even teaching Xu Changqing a lesson wouldn't be a big deal.
Ke Xu Changqing, after all, was the prince's confidante. Killing him would be unthinkable.
The guard immediately took orders and strode forward, pressing down on Xu Changqing to carry out the punishment of thirty lashes.
In the midst of his struggle, Xu Changqing’s official hat fell to the ground. He looked up and roared, “King Zhao, this silver was indeed handed over by Liu using above the national treasury. After being counted by the Ministry of Revenue, it was used to establish banks. I wouldn't dare speak falsely even if I had the guts in the world! King Zhao, if you don’t want to cause trouble, just stop!”
Although Xu Changqing struggled and resisted with all his might, he was after all just a frail scholar. How could someone who couldn't even lift a chicken be a match for the heavily trained guards Before anyone could finish the thought, he had been pushed to the ground, his official robe lifted to reveal his undergarments.
The guard was eager to prove himself, and didn't even bother listening to Xu Changqing. He raised his club and smashed it down hard.
Xu Changqing's cry of "Ah!" and Li Yinhu's shout of "Wait a minute!" came at the same time.
Li Yinhou's swagger was allowed before Liu's family and Xu Changqing, but he had to be humble and cautious before the East Palace.
So when he heard this involved silver and the moneychanger, he immediately spoke up to stop it.
But this blow has already been struck.
At that moment, Xu Changqing's waist split open, blood seeping through his white undergarments, a horrifying sight.
The zealous guard, eager to impress Li Yinhu, put all his strength into the blow.
Suddenly, everyone was stunned.
Xu Changqing was in so much pain that sweat beaded on his forehead. He clenched his fists tight, gripping the fabric of his clothes, and glared at Li Yinhǔ with eyes blazing with hatred.
Li Yinhu felt things were getting out of hand.
He never could have imagined that this money was really going to be sent to the Ministry of Finance.
To my surprise, the money was used to set up a bank.
Setting up a bank, within the imperial court, with Dantang Jing's proposal taking center stage. The East Palace exerted its full influence to bring it about, even Zhao Xuanji, his own patron, yielded and agreed.
Li Yinhu, having suffered numerous losses, knew that if something was so important to the East Palace that it received such painstaking attention and effort, then it must be a matter close to the prince's heart.
Now that I've brought the money here and even beaten up Xu Changqing, things are really serious!
"Why didn't you say so earlier!" Li Yinhǔ glared at Xu Changqing, exasperated.
"I told you so!"
Xu Changqing was drawing cold air with every word he spoke, but then, he gave a strange smile, his face full of hatred as he said: "King Zhao, just wait for the imperial edict from the East Palace!"t's just that you arrived suddenly, and I didn't want you to see it, so I called him in."Zhao Tailai's mind, which had been clouded by anger, calmed slightly, but he still didn't believe it. He said...
