Divine Doctor's Daughter: Black-bellied Crown Princess

Chapter 559
There is also a basis for what he said.

After all, when the first emperor was there, even though there were very few struggles, the first emperor did not seem to encounter any difficulties when he ascended the throne, but he was still short of money.

To be precise, the national treasury has never been filled.

In fact, everyone can understand this situation.

The burden of such a big court is on the royal family. If there is a problem here, the royal family will take care of it, and if there is a problem there, the royal family will take care of it. There have been droughts in the past few years. Affected by the snow disaster, coupled with the war, things like food and grass are also a heavy burden.

Although many people contributed to the food and grass this time, everyone knew it in their hearts, but the emperor would not be satisfied with such a result.

Therefore, such a situation makes these wealthy businessmen actually feel uneasy.

It's not because of anything else, but because they are powerless, and there is no one above to protect them, so it is actually very embarrassing for them to face such a thing.

Pay the money, your family will not be able to live after you pay it, if you don’t pay, you won’t be able to resist when someone comes to take it forcibly.

The so-called monarch wants his ministers to die, and the ministers have to die.

That's the truth.

At the beginning, these wealthy businessmen planned to come here to seek opportunities to see if they could free their families from such a fate, but the current situation made them feel desperate all of a sudden.

Now that the situation in the capital is like this, who else can they count on?
It can be said that no one can count on it.

Those people don't think about them at all.

this is the truth.

"Let's go back and wait for the news. In fact, I have always thought that the Eighth Prince is the best person to seek protection. It's a pity that the Eighth Prince is not in the capital at all."

"You're talking about the Eighth Prince's Concubine, right?"

The business of the Eighth Prince's Concubine is actually booming, and they have heard about it since they came to the capital. Compared with the business habits of the people here, the Eighth Prince's Concubine's regular habits are actually very novel, and The eighth concubine is indeed powerful.

"We want to imitate, but obviously, according to the model of the Eighth Prince Concubine, in fact, many people can't learn her way. First of all, not everyone opens a store for the purpose of making money. After that, no one dares to follow Eighth Prince The princess concubine viciously competes, that is, she assumes the status of the eighth concubine."

To open a shop in the capital, as long as you have a status, everything is easy to talk about, but if you don't have a status, it is really difficult to move an inch.

"Let's go."

The more everyone thought about this, the more uncomfortable they felt in their hearts, and the expressions on their faces gradually became a little ugly.

"Actually, there is no need to be so depressed. After all, we still have some uses, so we won't be treated too violently." Someone said in a low voice, who knew that as soon as the words came out, someone sneered and said: "You guys understand it very well."

Everyone was taken aback. They turned around and took a look, only to find that they didn't know when it happened. The place was actually surrounded by officers and soldiers.

These people looked at each other with a little panic.

They came here before because these places will not be discovered by other people now, but now they are discovered. It is not that this place will not be discovered by others. I am afraid that they have been discovered before, but those people have been keeping calm before. .

"Officer, we're just talking here, shouldn't we have done anything wrong?"

These people didn't say anything at first, but seeing these officers and soldiers now, they felt a little uneasy in their hearts, and there was a little apprehension on their faces.

The leading officer smiled and said sarcastically, "Since we know that nothing has been committed, why are we so afraid? We're not looking for trouble with you, it's just a routine inspection. Come with us."

"You also know the current situation in the capital. The second prince said that everyone is not allowed to gather crowds to make trouble. Although you didn't make trouble, who knows what you guys are gathering for?"

He said with a wave of his hand: "Take it away!"

The officers and soldiers rushed forward.

When several people were taken away, their faces were all gray and white.

They knew that if they left with the officers and soldiers this time, unless the family took out all their wealth, they would not be able to go back with their lives.

Cai Jiang said that they might not be able to keep their property, but they never thought that this day would come so soon.

Really angry and powerless.

They are just a group of people with money but no power. Although they also thought about spending money to donate to some officials, who knew that at that time, they happened to meet the eighth prince and won the battle. The emperor was very happy and gave him some rewards. People, those people know the benefits of being an official in the court, how can they be willing to do these good things that are obviously ruining their own future?
Greed for money is temporary, but as long as they are still sitting in their positions, the benefits they will get in the future will naturally be endless.

So these people still did not find a way in the end.

But although they didn't find a way out, they still couldn't resist their hearts and came all the way to the capital.

The current environment in the capital is indeed dangerous, so they immediately wanted to leave, but they didn't expect to be stayed in the end.

People really can't be greedy.

Originally doing business well in my hometown, the family is used to spending the best on food and clothing, and then I have a good relationship with the local prefect to let them take care of me. Isn't this kind of life not good?

Well, why do you want to come to this place in the capital to get a foot in the door?

It's better now, I lost my wife and lost my army.

A group of people huffed and led them away.

Many people in the capital came out to watch the excitement, but when they saw a few well-known wealthy businessmen being taken away, they quickly shrank their heads back.

If they watched such excitement, they would not dare to watch it.

Who doesn't know that there is a lot of turmoil in the capital now, if those princes start attacking the common people, then everyone is in danger now.

"We still have to be careful during this period of time. I never thought that the situation has reached such a bad point."

"Hide away, it will be fine after this time passes."

"Hey, why is it so difficult? The eighth prince over there has just won a battle and repelled the foreign enemies. We haven't had a good time yet. This incident happened again in the capital."

"It's so uncomfortable."

"Don't talk about it, these things are not something we can talk about recently."

What the people in the capital knew, the princes naturally received the news early in the morning.

When they heard the news, they naturally didn't feel empathy, but felt extremely angry.
