Chapter 243
"The person who chased me down was not the emperor." Shen Yaokang's tone was very affirmative.Because this is a deep mountain, there is no taboo when speaking.

Qin Miao couldn't figure it out: "More than half of your family's property has been promised to the emperor in the form of a treasure map. If the person who chases and kills you is not the emperor, then that person will kill you and the emperor will not get your family. Family property, why aren't you confronting the emperor! Besides, your Shen family is also a big family, with a business network that spreads all over the world and is deeply rooted, so if you offend your family like this, won't you be asking for trouble for yourself?"

Shen Yaokang smiled slightly: "If there is such a person who is neither afraid of offending my family nor afraid of what the emperor will do to him, but also has great ambitions, and wants to plunder a large amount of money from my family quickly so as to achieve great things?"

Having said that, Qin Miao was even more confused.She is just a little country girl, and she thinks about how to open a shop to make money, how to practice space skills so that the space can be upgraded quickly, and she really doesn't know anything about this high-ranking figure in the feudal society. .

So he asked Shen Yaokang: "Please tell Mr. Shen, I really don't understand."

Shen Yaokang responded: "Don't call me Mr. Shen, just call me Akang. I don't have a word yet, and everyone who is close to me calls me Akang."

Qin Miao smiled awkwardly, she didn't realize how close she was to the young master of the Shen family, she would never be able to call him by his nickname.

Fortunately, Shen Yaokang did not force her, and continued on the topic just now: "Little genius doctor, do you still remember the person who appeared with me in Xiaotang Town last time?"

Qin Miao suddenly realized: "Oh, I see, you mean the fourth prince? He is not afraid of your Shen family, nor does he have to worry about what the emperor will do to him, because he is a prince, a nobleman of the Tian family, so naturally he has nothing to fear Well, the emperor is his own father, so naturally he is not willing to do anything to him."

Shen Yaokang shook his head slightly, and smiled lightly: "It's not the fourth prince, he doesn't have that great ambition, even if he does, it won't be revealed for the time being." He didn't let Qin Miao continue to guess, but directly gave The answer, "The person who set up a trap to hunt me down these days is the elder brother of the fourth prince, the eldest son of the current emperor, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Daxi Dynasty."

Qin Miao suddenly realized again, this time she really understood: "Could it be that His Royal Highness wants to plunder your family's property so that he can gather people and seek power to usurp the throne? In this way, I can figure it out. One-third of the money corresponding to the treasure map donated by the emperor was given to the emperor, and has nothing to do with his prince, so he will not care about your life or death. However, he killed you and became an enemy of your family. Wouldn't it be even more impossible to get money from your family?"

Shen Yaokang sighed: "A senior manager under me betrayed me and took refuge in the prince. The seal of the business under my management was dedicated to the prince by the senior manager. As long as I die, the prince secretly blocks the news of my death, and the prince can With that seal, he collected money. Speaking of which, he didn't dare to pursue me blatantly, so he trapped me in Tang County and wanted to kill me secretly."

Qin Miao immediately asked back: "Since it was to kill you secretly, why did you send out the government's soldiers and servants?"

Shen Yaokang replied with some emotion: "I'm afraid that the county magistrate of Chu Yuan and Chu will not escape death this time."

Qin Miao was shocked: "How do you say this?"

Because the two of them are in the deep mountains and old forests at the moment, they don't worry about any taboos in what they say.Shen Yaokang said directly: "Most of the life of the current emperor has been leading soldiers and fighting, and he is determined to seize the vast land and resources of the Central Plains. Finally, in his later years, he finally got his wish and sat on the throne. But... he's getting old, and he doesn't have many years left, but the struggle between his sons for the throne has become more intense."

"The Holy Majesty had few children in his early years, and he began to have sons one after another after he passed middle age. Now, among the emperor's children, except for the princess, there are only three princes in total, namely the crown prince, the third prince and the fourth prince."

"The crown prince was born of Shengshang Weishi's original wife, who was also a heroine. Unfortunately, when he was fighting with Shengshang, he was seriously injured and died of serious injuries. Because the son born to his wife It is very fancy, after winning the country of the Central Plains and establishing the Daxi Dynasty, he made the son of the main wife the crown prince."

"Speaking of which, with such great attention from the Holy One, the crown prince's position as the crown prince should be very solid. Unfortunately, his two younger brothers are really outstanding. When the prince was crowned prince, those two younger brothers were still young. What do you think, but in the past few years, with the growth of those two younger brothers, their talents have become more and more outstanding, and the prince panicked. He can't wait, and he dare not wait any longer. After taking the throne, he is afraid that after his two younger brothers mature, he may not be able to keep his crown prince position."

Hearing this, Qin Miao had a better understanding of the general members of the royal family.Speaking of which, the life-and-death drama of the members of the royal family fighting for the throne was indeed very exciting, but what did it have to do with her, Qin Miao?What she wants to know most now is why Shen Yaokang said just now that even the county magistrate of Chu would not escape death this time.

So he asked him: "What does this have to do with the Chu county magistrate?"

Shen Yaokang smiled slightly, and an inexplicable cold light flashed in his eyes: "The Tianhuang nobles above fight, and many people below are affected. Except for the county magistrate of Chu, I am afraid that Mr. Zhu, a great Confucian of that generation, will have a clean life soon. It's over."

"How did you get involved with Mr. Zhu again?" Qin Miao's train of thought that had just been clarified just now was a little confused again.

The shrewd and murderous look in Shen Yaokang's eyes has faded away, and there is still a gentle and soft smile on his face, and he explains: "If you really want to talk about the festival between the crown prince and the county magistrate of Chu, you have to start with the new food from your family. Let’s start with the seeds.”

Qin Miao had been chatting with Shen Yaokang in the heart of listening to stories and watching the fun, thinking that these big shots would have nothing to do with her as a little village girl.Now when I heard Shen Yaokang mentioning her family's new grain, I couldn't help but tremble. There is also something about her family?
Seeing the doubts on Qin Miao's face, Shen Yaokang didn't hold back anymore, and said directly: "The fourth prince was ordered by the emperor to come to Tang County to verify whether the new grain species listed by the Chu County Magistrate was true, and returned to the capital after finishing the errand. The harvest was not good at that time, and several carts of new grains were brought back to Beijing, and the emperor was curious about it for a while, so he sent people to try planting."
