Chapter 27 Clearly marked price
When Li Di walked into the backyard, Zhao Zhen was practicing "Sports of Physical Fitness".
This physical fitness technique is one of the big gift packages he has obtained for beginners!
At first, Zhao Zhen didn't care.
But during this period of time, he was a little bored in Pingshan, so he began to practice this physical fitness technique. He practiced for half an hour every morning and evening. After a few days, he felt refreshed, clear-headed, and his body became stronger and stronger.
So Zhao Zhen insisted.
Li Di walked in and saw Zhao Zhen’s moves soft, and thought to himself that it is a good thing for Your Highness to practice martial arts, but it is useless to have such a fancy move. Another day, I will ask the Wang Shi to invite a military teacher to Your Highness!
Although Li Di is a civil servant, he is both civil and military. Otherwise, he would not dare to beat Ding Wei and a group of people in the court.
Therefore, he looked down on Zhao Zhen's moves at all.
In addition, Zhao Zhen looks thin with his arms and legs, so he is not as good as the weather!
He walked behind Zhao Zhen and said, "Your Highness, I have..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhao Zhen, who was immersed in physical fitness techniques, was startled and turned around subconsciously and punched him.
Li Di raised his hand in a hurry to resist.
Bang.
A dull sound.
Rush and rub.
Li Di couldn't help but take several steps back, and fell to the ground with a horror on his face.
Zhao Zhen hurried over, helped Li Di up, and asked, "Sir, are you okay?"
Li Di was indeed surprised and said, "Your Highness, what martial arts are you... practicing?"
Just now, Zhao Zhen's seemingly casual punch was extremely powerful, and he beat him who thought he was good at it and fell to the ground.
Zhao Zhen said a little embarrassedly: "Sir, I laughed at you. I was just trying to figure it out, and it was impossible to do anything."
Li Di scratched his head awkwardly, still feeling a little unbelievable. The prince is still a child, and he has such strong explosive power.
He said, "I came here to ask Your Highness when will the problem of manpower be solved. Those of Cao Bi are not useful, and the three of them are not as good as a farmer. They are better than anyone else in their meals. I advise Your Highness to drive them away as soon as possible!"
Zhao Zhen asked with a smile: "Have Cao Bi and others ever thought about escaping? Or sending out messages secretly?"
Li Di's eyes widened: "They dare... under my nose, no one can do small moves."
When Zhao Zhen heard this, he immediately looked dark.
No wonder I said that there has been no news in the past few days.
It turned out that it was delayed by Li Di!
He looked at Li Di helplessly and said, "Sir, you have ruined the big affairs of my palace! I am now ordering you to relax your supervision of Cao Bi and others. If they pass the message out, they can turn a blind eye."
"Ah? Your Highness, why is this?" Li Di was puzzled.
Zhao Zhen waved his hand: "Sir, don't ask. I have my own arrangements. Do what I said. In less than a few days, Pingshan's manpower problem will be solved."
Li Di retreated in confusion.
...
When he returned to the lime factory, Li Di called his subordinates and explained it.
That night, the lime factory monitored Cao Bi and others less guards.
Cao Bi, Lin Cheng and others passed on the news that they were detained to work in Pingshan Lime Factory.
...
Cao Mansion.
A servant ran into the main hall in panic and said to Cao Yong: "Master, the young master has found it!"
Cao Yong stood up and asked anxiously: "Where is Bi'er?"
The servant said, "Master, the young master sent someone to send a message saying that he was forced by the prince to sign a contract for sale. He is burning lime at Pingshan Lime Factory. He asked the master to send someone to rescue him soon, otherwise he will die!"
Bang.
Cao used a punch to hit the table and said angrily: "It's outrageous. A few days ago, I heard that the prince kidnapped Ding Xianggong's son Ding Buju and asked him to pick up manure in Bianjing City. Now, the prince is becoming more and more arrogant, and he dares to imprison even my grandson! I will go to Pingshan early tomorrow morning to ask the prince for an explanation!"
...
Lin Mansion.
After getting his grandson Lin Cheng was detained in Pingshan, Lin Te started smashing things, and the best porcelain in the entire study was thrown all over the ground by him.
"What is the prince going to do?"
"Does he want to be an enemy of the important officials in the entire court?"
"Aren't he afraid that we will join forces and impeach him in front of the official?"
"It's simply unreasonable!"
...
The palace.
backyard.
The little maid ran into the boudoir and said in panic: "Miss, the master is furious outside. He said that the prince sent someone to kidnap Mr. Wang Yuan and asked Mr. Wang Yuan to burn lime. I heard that the kidnapped together were Cao Bi of the Cao Mansion and Lin Cheng of the Lin Mansion... Miss, the prince likes to kidnap people. In the future, if you marry into the Eastern Palace, will he tie you up and play..."
The woman in her fifteenth and sixteenth year rolled her eyes and said to herself: "The prince has kidnapped so many people at once, and they are all noble in their identities. His purpose is probably not to let these people stay in Pingshan to work, but... Oh my God, he actually wants to..."
The maid asked, "Miss, what do the prince think?"
The woman stood up and said thoughtfully: "It's nothing. I told you, you don't understand either. If it's really like I thought, then the prince of our Song Dynasty would be really terrible!"
...
early morning.
Luxury carriages came out of the Northwest Water Gate one after another.
Look at the marks on the carriage, including Cao Mansion, Wang Mansion, Lin Mansion, etc. More than a dozen mansions are among the best in Bianjing City.
The city gate official was confused, thinking that some grand event was held outside the northwest water gate today, which attracted so many people from famous mansions to leave the city.
If he knew that there were Wang Qinruo, the Chief Minister, Cao Yong, the Third Session envoy, and Lin Te, who were sitting in the carriages, he would be frightened.
These carriages left the city gate, followed the Jinshui River, and headed straight northwest, and finally arrived at Pingshan.
In the lobby.
Cao Yong, Wang Qinruo and others sat upright.
More than a dozen people were all important figures in the court.
At this time, the King of War walked in, bowed his hand, and smiled and said, "Sir, Your Highness and Mr. Li have gone to inspect the progress of land reclamation. Let me come down to entertain you. Please forgive me if you don't have any questions!"
Cao Yong and others immediately showed displeasure.
They are important officials of the court, and Zhao Heng must be treated politely.
But the prince didn't even show his face!
This shows that the prince didn't take them seriously at all!
Cao Yi said bluntly: "Wang Binke, I won't go around with you anymore. Today, we are here to pick up people from the mansion. You can bring people here quickly. For the sake of Your Highness's young, we will not pursue this matter."
Wang Shu smiled slightly: "Super Cao, Your Highness said that Cao Bi and others were completely voluntarily working in Pingshan, and they signed a letter of commitment. You can pick up people, but there are conditions."
“What conditions?”
Wang Shu stretched out two fingers: "The first condition is that you must rent all your land in Pingshan to the East Palace for a lease period of 100 years. The second condition is that now Pingshan has cultivated land and lacks manpower. Each of your houses must send at least 30 servants to help. These people eat and live in Pingshan, but the expenses are expensed by each of them!"
After saying that, he added: "The price is clearly marked and the same person is not deceived!"
