The little Fubao in the deserted village made all the dignitaries in the court go crazy with envy
Chapter 57 Poison Scheme
"Master, the Jin family is rich and powerful. They want to help the Lin family. If we go against them, I'm afraid—"
Chen Hongyang looked worried and didn't dare to say the rest of the words.
The Chen family is well-respected in Ma County, but it is not good enough in front of a business giant like the Jin family.
If anyone wants to deal with the Chen family, they only need to move their fingers.
Just like this time, without even showing up, the Jin family made the county magistrate, who had been on good terms with the Chen family for many years, reject the Chen family's dinner invitation. People in the circle heard the news and changed their minds, trying to guess the county magistrate's thoughts, and also distanced themselves from the Chen family.
The Chen family, which had always been doing well in the upper class circles of Ma County, was stranded for the first time.
This is just a warning from the Jin family. If the Chen family refuses to restrain themselves and the Jin family takes real action, Chen Hongyang dare not think about it. He is afraid that the glory of the Chen family in Ma County will become history.
Chen Xing glanced at him, his expression even more sinister, "Who said I want to go head-to-head with the Jin family? I can't touch the Jin family, but it's still easy to touch the small Lin family! Merchants pursue profits, the Jin family will take action just for the Hundred Xiang Grass, let them be proud first! I'm afraid that in the end, even if the Hundred Xiang Grass is delivered to the Jin family's mouth, they dare not lower their heads to eat it!"
Chen Hongyang's mind moved slightly, and his eyes lit up, "Master, have you thought of a solution?"
"If the Lin family becomes criminals, do you think the Jin family will still dare to get involved with them? If they dare, we don't need to do anything, there are plenty of people to bring them down! Which wealthy businessman doesn't want the position of the Chamber of Commerce president? It's just that they have no chance to beat the Jin family! If they can catch the Jin family in the slightest, they will bite the Jin family to a bloody pulp!"
"I am stupid, could you please explain it to me, sir?"
"Do you still remember the unexplained pain you felt when you went to the Lin family last time?"
Chen Hongyang was stunned for a moment, then nodded quickly, "Remember!"
How could I forget?
Whenever Chen Hongyang thought of this incident, he always felt it was weird.
He was in so much pain in the Lin family yard that his internal organs seemed to be turning upside down in his stomach. He was almost dead at that moment. However, when he went to the town to see a doctor, the doctor couldn't find anything.
Later, he refused to believe it, and went back to the county to see the best doctor, but he still couldn't find the cause of the pain. It was as if he had seen a ghost. It was in vain that he died in pain! It was in vain that he died!
Chen Xing had calmed down by now and returned to his usual behavior. He kicked away the broken porcelain at his feet and sat down leisurely on the solid wood armchair. "Have you heard about the group of hooligans found on the barren ridge in Wutong Town? They were just like you. They were inexplicably attacked and they couldn't find the reason."
Chen Hongyang immediately poured a cup of Baixiang tea and bowed, "Master, please continue."
Chen Xing took the tea, took a sip, curled his lips and sneered, "Send a message to Jishitang, and ask them to report to the government office. They will sue the Lin family for privately manufacturing poison and harming people. They are disregarding human life and their crime is punishable by death!"
Chen Hongyang was stunned and couldn't react for a moment.
Even if it is a false accusation, you have to give the outside world a plausible reason. The reason given by the master is not tenable.
"The Lin family successfully captured bandits twice and received rewards. This is known to the whole Wutong Town. There is another thing that is also known to everyone. The reason why their family was able to successfully capture the bandits was that they used drugs. This was told to the people in the government office by the Lin family themselves. It is not impossible to have drugs that can knock out dozens of strong men at once and poison that can cause inexplicable pain and rotten flesh. As long as someone believes it, rumors can be spread and falsehood can become true. The government also solved an unsolved case with this. How great is that?"
Hearing this, Chen Hongyang suddenly understood, his eyes lit up, and he gave a thumbs up to flatter, "Great, great! Master, this plan is great! This trick can not only crush the Lin family without bloodshed, but also make the Jin family afraid and dare not continue to help them to avoid damaging their reputation! By then, we will have a chance to get the Lin family's Baixiang grass! First come first served, we will always get a share!"
The Hundred-Angled Grass is becoming more and more eye-catching. It has attracted the attention of the Jin family and will inevitably attract the attention of other merchants as well.
Under such circumstances, it is impossible for the Chen family to monopolize the Baixiangcao, but they can still get a share of it.
Chen Xing lowered his head to drink tea, a dark light in his eyes, "Go and do it quickly. Give those rotten meat people some silver, they will be the best witnesses."
"Yes, I will pass the message to Jishidiang right away!"
After Chen Hongyang left and finished his cup of tea, Chen Xing raised his head with a sinister look on his face.
Let’s deal with the Lin family first.
As for the Jin family, he will not let them have an easy time, but he will take it step by step!
There will always be a time when the Jin family will fall from grace!
Whatever loss Chen Xing suffered today, he will pay back tenfold or a hundredfold in the future!
……
Cascading water canal.
Private luxury cruise ship.
The black-clad guards on the deck had swords hanging from their waists, and they looked murderous.
In the spacious cabin, the young boy was lying on a specially placed solid wood couch, his eyes half open, his face pale and his cheeks thin.
He looked so weak that he seemed about to break at any moment.
"Mother, please don't frown. I feel much better today." The young boy pursed his lips to comfort the noble woman with red and swollen eyes beside the couch.
When he was in a coma, his mother would often shed tears, thinking that he was unfilial.
The Queen carefully wiped the sweat off his forehead with a handkerchief and pretended to be relaxed, "Who said that your mother frowned? I'm happy. At first I was worried that you wouldn't be able to endure the long journey. I didn't expect that you would be awake longer on the boat than in the palace. It shows that the Baixiang Tea is very useful for your body."
Madam Du nodded repeatedly, "Yes, Your Highness. The more you wake up, the happier Your Majesty will be. We are almost at the outer city pier of Yuanzhou. After getting off the pier and taking the land route, we will reach Wutong Town by noon tomorrow at the latest. By then, we will drink Baixiang Tea three times a day, and you will definitely get better!"
The young boy smiled and nodded, his eyes clear, "Madam is right, I will get better. When I get better, I want to eat the stuffed vegetables you made. I ate them once when I was a child and I have never forgotten them. I have always missed your cooking skills."
Aunt Du's eyes were filled with tears. She sniffed and said happily, "So Your Highness still remembers? Good, good! When you get better, I will cook you stuffed vegetables in different ways. I guarantee you won't get tired of them!"
"We are hoping that you will get better, but you are only thinking about the food cooked by Nanny?" The Queen said unforgivingly.
The young man's eyes curved, "I still miss reciting poems and dancing with swords for my mother, and listening to her play the song "Xiaoxiang Water Clouds" again."
A few words of casual chat, just a moment.
The young boy's eyelids soon became droopy again and he couldn't help falling asleep.
The queen gently tucked the corner of the quilt and caressed the child's face lovingly. She stood up and walked across the partition screen in the cabin before whispering, "How much Hundred-phase Grass is left?"
"Your Majesty, there is nothing left. What we brewed at noon was the last bit. If you make tea later, you can only use the tea dregs left over from noon." Madam Du responded.
The Queen frowned and ordered, "Order the helmsman to speed up and make sure we get to Yuxi Village as soon as possible!"
Nanny Du did not dare to slack off and immediately went down to pass on the order.
They didn't have much of the herb to begin with, just a small box, and they used it sparingly along the way, even boiling a handful of the herb into tea three times before they could barely last half a month.
Thanks to the supply of Baixiang Tea, the little prince was able to endure the hardships of the journey without becoming exhausted.
Now, in the eyes of the Queen and all those who care about His Highness, Baixiangcao has become a life-saving straw.
Everything can be missing except the herb Baixiangcao!
