King Jing is really not a coward. When he heard Luo Xin coming, he did not pretend to be sick. He knew that he would not see Luo Xin at this time, and it was not what he said. If he dared not see him, Luo Xin would dare to break in. Didn’t he see Yu Dayou and his soldiers at the prefect’s office not far away?

Didn't you see Luo Xin bringing 100 soldiers from Yu Dayou?

He was just a little anxious. Why didn’t the butler come back with the three hundred dead soldiers?

Luo Xin was taken by someone and walked inward along the bluestone road of the royal palace. Behind him, ten servants and ten Yu Dayou's subordinates were followed. The rest stayed in the front garden of the royal palace. The people of King Jing did not dare to stop Luo Xin from entering with twenty guards. They did not see those people staring at them, holding the hilt of the knife at their waists, as if they would immediately draw their swords and chop them down.

"Mr. Luo, I have heard of the Ming Dynasty for a long time. I saw it today and I have the honor of three lives." King Jing walked down the steps with a kind smile on his face.

"Luo Xin, I have met the prince." Luo Xin bowed to King Jing.

"Hahaha, there is no need to be polite!" King Jing strode forward, grabbed Luo Xin's arm and said, "Please inside."

"Please, please!"

Luo Xin also held King Jing's arm with a smile, and the two walked side by side into the house. The gate was closed, and the twenty people brought by Luo Xin outside the door stood on the left, and one hundred guards from King Jing's mansion stood on the right, both sides were staring at him.

In the room.

There were only King Jing and Luo Xin. After sitting down, King Jing looked at Luo Xin with a smile and said:

"Mr. Luo..."

Luo Xin waved his hand, then took out a stack of paper from the bag placed on the table and handed it to King Jing:

"Prince, take a look first."

King Jing seemed to realize something in his heart, and took the stack of paper with a trembling hand, his eyes fell on the paper, and suddenly looked up at Luo Xin, with fear in his eyes. Luo Xin said softly:

"Prince, don't panic, take a look first."

King Jing nodded involuntarily, then looked down. Then beads of sweat as big as beans flowed down from his forehead.

First, the confessions of the bandits, the water thieves and the horse thieves, and then the confessions of Wang Haicheng, which describe in detail what King Jing has done over the years, and where the dragon robe is placed, it is written clearly.

King Jing put the paper on the table tremblingly, with murderous aura in his eyes. Luo Xin waved his hand gently and said:

"Prince, don't be excited. By the way, I forgot to tell you that your 300 dead soldiers have been killed. And Yu Dayou's 3,000 cavalry are not far away. Once a signal is sent here, they will come immediately."

At this time, King Jing no longer had his original demeanor and knelt on the ground with a thud.

"Mr. Luo, it's Xiao Wang who was fooled by Wang Haicheng..."

Luo Xin stepped forward and helped King Jing up, let him sit on the chair again and said:

"Your Majesty heard some rumors about the prince, so he asked me to come and investigate. The people who investigated and the people who were interrogated were all my confidants, and no one knew. Yu Dayou was only responsible for suppressing bandits, and he didn't know anything he shouldn't have known."

A look of anticipation appeared on King Jing's face and said, "Mr. Luo, what do you want Xiao Wang to do? As long as you can save Xiao Wang's life."

"It is not difficult to save the prince's life, and the prince can continue to be your prince in the future and enjoy wealth and glory. But there is something that requires the prince's cooperation."

"you say."

Luo Xin took out a few pieces of paper from the bag and handed it to King Jing:

"Look at it, Prince."

King Jing took the pieces of paper and finished reading it quickly. His face looked relieved and a little painful.

Those sheets of paper were well written, and he had to hand over the occupied military farmland and take out a lot of food and grass. A rough estimate was half of his family's wealth.

Half is half!

This is to buy money for life and to keep the prince’s position. What else can I ask for?

In fact, Luo Xin left him a way out. According to Emperor Jiajing's wish, it was not only to return the military farm, but also to collect a hundred years of rent, and the entire Jingwang Mansion would go bankrupt.

Can Luo Xin do this?

cannot!

The south is so turbulent. If he really does this, he will force the royal family and aristocratic families to rebel. If his family is destroyed, how can he care about anything else?

At that time, would Emperor Jiajing admit that he gave this order?

Won't!

Then who is being blamed?

Luo Xin!

Therefore, Luo Xin ignored the imperial edicts of Emperor Jiajing, and those imperial edicts were only kept for the trump card that he had taken out when he really had no choice.

Luo Xin took out a few pieces of paper from the bag and handed it to King Jing:

"These people are royal relatives who have occupied the military farm and asked them to hand over the military farm and pay the money and grain as a fine for possessing military farm for so many years. Prince, can you help me with this matter?"

After reading the paper, King Jing couldn't help but smile bitterly: "It should be no problem. The right time you grasp it will hurt us, but you can keep them alive in a basic sense. In the future, let alone no longer have the intention to rebel, even if you want to rebel, you will not have the money.

However, Zhu Yuan is greedy and stingy, and it is probably difficult to convince him."

Luo Xin waved his hand and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, greed will kill them."

"I'm dead?" King Jing looked at Luo Xin in disbelief and asked tentatively: "Mr. Luo, this Zhu Yuan is just greedy and stingy, but is as timid as a mouse, and he has no..."

"Rebel, right?" Luo Xin said lightly.

"Yeah!" King Jing nodded and said, "After all, he is a royal relative..."

"Haha..." Luo Xin smiled lightly and said, "King Jing, do you know why Your Majesty is eyeing you? Do you know why I want to let you go?"

"Why?"

Luo Xin pondered for a moment and said, "I will not admit what I said in this room today."

"I understand!" King Jing looked at Luo Xin's calm expression and felt more and more mysterious. Even the little king dared to call himself and called me. However, Luo Xin didn't care about a prince who was destined to be down and said lightly:

"Although the Ming Dynasty had Southern Maritime and Northern Mutual Trade, the Maritime and Northern Mutual Trade had only been in operation for a few years, and Northern Mutual Trade had just begun. The court's finances can only be said to have just gotten out of the predicament and were not rich.

However, in recent years, it has been a natural disaster for years. Every year, the country has to spend a lot of money and food to provide disaster relief. Moreover, the anti-Japanese pirates in the past few years, and the war with Goryeo in recent years has made the court's finances difficult. Now the rebellion between the White Lotus Sect and Zhang Daoyuan broke out, and the court has no money."

"No money?"

King Jing's expression was stunned, and then his face became very ugly.

The court had no money, so it focused on them, the royal relatives. Do they still have privileges?

Without privilege, what are you doing as a royal relative?
