Kidnapped by Princess Changle at the beginning

Page 310

Zhang Shigui smiled slightly: "His Royal Highness King Jing, what you said is wrong."

"Huh?" Li Yuanjing frowned, "No? What's wrong?"

Zhang Shigui explained: "His Royal Highness, Chen Chu's title and fief have been taken back by His Majesty. He is now just a commoner son-in-law, not a Ping Xibo. In addition, His Majesty sent the Western Tang Dynasty to punish Chen Chu for deceiving the emperor. All the coal mines of the company have been taken over by the imperial court, that is to say, Meishan Coal Mine is also among them. The final general is ordered by His Majesty to assist the Ministry of Civil Affairs in managing the Meishan Coal Mine. Without His Majesty's order, how dare the final general evacuate people? Please forgive me, Your Highness."

what?

Li Yuanjing was taken aback.

He stared at Zhang Shigui, and asked coldly: "Zhang Shigui, do you know what you are talking about? How could the emperor take away the coal mines of the West Datang Company, this West Datang Company belongs to me."

Zhang Shigui still kept smiling: "Your Highness, when the coal mine was taken away, the West Datang Company still belonged to Chen Chu. By the way, don't you know what happened in the morning today?"

Li Yuanjing's face was dark.

As an idle prince, of course he didn't have to go to the morning court.

Moreover, he met with Chen Chu today to discuss the purchase of the West Datang Company, and he has arranged many people to report back what happened earlier at any time.

Xu Wei did not disappoint him, news came soon.

Later, when Chen Chu suddenly agreed to sell, Li Yuanjing was so excited that he didn't think about why there was no news from the palace.

Now that I think about it, everything is a little bit out of the ordinary.

A burst of cold sweat trickled down Li Yuanjing's back.

He turned his head and met Wang Qinian's eyes.

Wang Qinian, who was so smart, also guessed something, and his face was shocked.

Li Yuanjing waved his hand: "Let's go, go back to the West Datang Company first... Wang Qinian, please send someone to contact Xu Wei quickly to find out what happened."

"Yes, my lord!"

Wang Qinian hurried to make arrangements.

……

……

After half an hour.

West Datang Corporation Headquarters.

in the conference room.

The atmosphere was depressing.

Everyone's face was gloomy.

Especially Jing Wang Li Yuanjing, whose face was so gloomy that he could squeeze out water.

Everyone looked up from time to time, as if waiting for someone.

Not long after, there were footsteps at the door.

Wang Qinian opened the door and walked in first, followed by Xu Wei with a mournful face.

Xu Wei was trembling, and when he came in, he knelt down in front of Li Yuanjing.

"King Jing, I deserve to die!"

"I messed things up!"

Xu Wei burst into tears.

boom.

Li Yuanjing got up and kicked Xu Wei to the ground.

He shouted and asked: "Trash, you are still crying at such an age, what use is this king wanting you... Hurry up and tell this king what is going on."

But Xu Wei just kept crying, sobbing so much that he couldn't say a word.

He originally had a bright future, and he was ready to serve as the governor of Tongzhou.

Who knew, everything would be destroyed in an instant.

He knew that he had ruined all of King Jing's plans.

Xu Wei was speechless.

Wang Qinian said from the side: "My lord, the ins and outs, on the way here, I have already asked Master Xu, the matter is probably like this..."

He briefly narrated everything that happened in the court today.

Li Yuanjing was dumbfounded after hearing this, his face full of disbelief.

Did Zhao Chao actually make it look like this?

Of course, he didn't care about why Li Er suddenly went crazy, he would care about Xu Wei, and he also wanted to entertain the ministers in the Liangyi Hall.

What he cares about is the future of West Datang Company.

Li Yuanjing Nuonuo said to himself: "So, the cotton, caravans, etc. of the Western Datang Company in Shanzhou are gone, and the salt wells and salt mines of the Western Datang Company are also gone, as well as the most important coal mines. , and even one of them is gone..."

Wang Qinian nodded cautiously: "My lord, we really took advantage of this time. No one expected that His Majesty would be so angry and punish Chen Chu so hard in a fit of anger. Chen Chu had nothing to lose, but what he lost was Let's."

Snapped.

Li Yuanjing picked up the teacup on the table and slammed it on the ground, breaking it into pieces.

Li Yuanjing raised his head abruptly, his eyes were bloodshot and full of anger: "Chen Chu, Chen Chu must have done it on purpose to get Chen Chu back. I won't buy this broken West Datang Company."

Without Shanzhou's caravans, cotton and manpower, without coal mines, without salt wells and salt mines, the West Datang Company is just an empty shell.

What's the use of me, Li Yuanjing, wanting an empty shell!

Li Yuanjing was furious in his heart!

……

Chapter 395 Can't find Chen Chu, can't I still mess with you?

Li Yuanjing's first reaction was to find Chen Chu and refund the money.

He doesn't want this empty shell of Western Datang Company.

Seeing him walk out with people.

Next to him, Wang Qinian shook his head and reminded, "My lord, it's useless even if we find Chen Chu..."

Li Yuanjing turned his head and asked curiously: "It's useless? Why is it useless? Chen Chu, a liar, when I find him, I will not only ask him to refund the money, but also teach him a lesson. How dare I lie to my head?" ..."

Wang Qi smiled wryly, and said: "My lord, speaking of it, it's not Chen Chu's fault. After all, we were the ones who rushed there and even forced Chen Chu to buy the West Datang Company. Have you forgotten the initial share, my lord?" A signed contract?"

contract?

Li Yuanjing's complexion changed.

He suddenly remembered something, and quickly took out a piece of paper from his sleeve.

This is the first sale and purchase agreement to be signed.

To be precise, it was Li Yuanjing who was worried that Chen Chu would repent after selling the West Datang Company, so he went to Changsun Wuji, Cheng Yaojin and others, and even Li Erlai to help intercede. Therefore, in order to avoid Chen Chu's repentance, Li Yuanjing first He took out a contract and gave it to Chen Chu to sign.

It is clearly written in the contract that once the two parties complete the delivery procedures, no matter what happens, they must not go back on their word, otherwise they will have to pay three times the amount of the transaction.

In other words, neither Li Yuanjing nor Chen Chu could go back on their word, otherwise, they would have to pay three times as much as 120 million guan, 360 million guan.

The most important thing is that Li Yuanjing forced Chen Chu to sign this contract.

It was not Chen Chu's will.

No matter how dark-skinned Li Yuanjing was, he was too embarrassed to go to Chen Chu to regret it.

Li Yuanjing felt regretful in his heart.

If I had known earlier, I would not have signed this contract.

If that's the case, there is still a chance to go to Chen Chu to discuss it. With Chen Chu's current status as a commoner son-in-law, he would not dare to challenge the king.

But with this contract, it's too late.

Li Yuanjing knew that if he pushed too hard, Chen Chu might make the matter public. At that time, all the good reputation he had built over the years would be ruined.

However, Li Yuanjing was not reconciled!

An old man from the Li family in Zhao County suddenly stood up and said, "King Jing, there may be a turning point in this matter."

"What turning point?" Li Yuanjing asked hastily.

The old man said: "King Jing can go to His Majesty now and explain the matter clearly. Originally, His Majesty took back these things from the Western Datang Company to punish Chen Chu, but now, the entire Western Datang Company belongs to King Jing. Your Majesty did not punish Chen Chu, but instead harmed your interests, King Jing..."

Hearing this, Li Yuanjing's eyes lit up.

He felt it was doable.

He was moved.

But at this moment, Wang Qinian grabbed him by the sleeve and said loudly, "My lord, you absolutely must not..."

Li Yuanjing frowned and said, "Why not?"

Wang Qinian glanced at the old man from the Li family in Zhaojun and others, and said in a low voice, "My lord, please take a step to speak."

Li Yuanjing followed Wang Qinian outside in confusion.

It wasn't until outside that Wang Qinian spoke freely.

Wang Qinian said: "My lord, you must not listen to the words of these people... Think about it, my lord, His Majesty punished Chen Chu before you bought the West Datang Company. The coal mines were all taken back to the imperial court, and you just bought them with money. Even if you make a scene in the Ganlu Palace, you won’t take it seriously... I won’t talk about this matter. If you go to your majesty, you will at most be reprimanded by your majesty. But have you ever thought about what His Majesty is most afraid of?"

"what?"

Wang Qinian explained: "It's the big family like Qiwang with five surnames. In the seventh year of Zhenguan, His Majesty asked Changsun Wuji to be a matchmaker. He wanted the King of Shu to marry the daughter of the Wang family of Taiyuan, but was rejected by the Wang family of Taiyuan. At that time, His Majesty asked In a fit of rage, he swore that he would be at odds with the clan... Your Majesty, if you go to ask His Majesty now, wouldn't you tell His Majesty clearly that you have contacts with people like the Wang family in Taiyuan? At that time, His Majesty will not return the property that was confiscated to Xida Company Tang, I'm afraid you are in danger too!"

Hearing this, Li Yuanjing's eyes widened, and then he limply leaned against the pillar like a deflated pig's intestines.

Li Yuanjing is still very clear about his weight.

Over the years, although he likes to make friends, he also has some outstanding talents like Wang Qinian under his command. He also has a lot of property and accumulated a lot of wealth.

However, these are only superficial. In fact, Li Yuanjing is still just an idle prince.

His Majesty Li Er, who is wise and mighty, is really too powerful.

These brothers are not given any chance to develop at all.

Therefore, if Li Er was really annoyed, Li Yuanjing knew that his death was not far away.

"It's over, it's over..."

"This time, I lost more than 50 yuan. This is my savings for many years..."

"It's all in vain."

"This king is really stupid! It's unreasonable to believe what Xu Wei said."

Li Yuanjing fell into constant self-blame.

Although this incident happened because of Chen Chu, Li Yuanjing didn't have any hatred for Chen Chu in his heart.

Some just blame themselves.

Just when Li Yuanjing was at a loss, Wang Qinian poked his sleeve and said in a low voice: "My lord, this matter is not at the end of the mountain..."

Li Yuanjing's eyes lit up: "How do you say that?"

Wang Qinian looked around and said cautiously: "My lord, the total loss of 120 million guan in the purchase of Western Datang Company, my lord accounted for more than 50 guan, the largest loss. Now, looking for Chen Chu, or looking for His Majesty Impossible, then we can only minimize the loss as much as possible..."

Li Yuanjing still didn't understand: "How to reduce it?"

Wang Qinian sneered: "Naturally let other clansmen take the burden for you, you can do it specifically..."

He clung to Li Yuanjing's ear and whispered something.

The more Li Yuanjing listened, the more excited he became.

Snapped.

After a while, Li Yuanjing clapped his hands and said happily: "Okay, okay, let's do it like this... Huh, these bastards, who follow me to eat and drink hot food, should take some responsibility, me I can't look for Chen Chu, I dare not look for Brother Huang, and I can't deal with you."

Thinking about it, Li Yuanjing tidied up his clothes and expression, and brought Wang Qinian back to the conference room.

The family members gathered around and asked anxiously: "King Jing, what should we do now?"
