Chapter 317 The Widow and the Prince’s Riddle
Is it possible that there is such a person in the world? Who can do everything that others cannot do even after spending their entire lives?
But she couldn't help but not believe it.
Just the books displayed by Yuwen Chengxin made her shocked by papermaking and printing, and those beautiful poems made her even more amazed. Even the fried tea and snacks were delicacies she had never tasted before...
And all of this, as Yu Wen Chengxin said, was all done by the young king.
When Yuwen Chengxin really started to show her the arithmetic he had learned, she already believed 90% of Yuwen Chengxin's words.
Ba Qing, the richest man in the world, who had always been calm and calm, was completely shocked by this prince's knowledge.
As for Shang Dao, Yu Wencheng was worried that he had not received the authorization from his master and did not say much. However, Ba Qing and others were deeply shocked by what she inadvertently revealed in just a few words.
Ba Qing even felt that he couldn't digest it for a while, so he stopped Yu Wencheng's endless talk.
"Cheng Xin, don't say too much for now. Auntie, you have to think about it carefully. This person is too unbelievable."
"Hmm, um." Yu Wencheng was not surprised. He was feeling dizzy at first.
"Speaking of which, aunt, please eat something first, but don't eat too much, otherwise you will regret it during dinner."
"Dinner?" Ba Qing said calmly, "That's your business."
Yu Wencheng thought to himself: "Auntie, the master is not that kind of person. You will know it gradually. In fact..."
Her eyes flashed: "Actually, I think the master has a big idea in bringing you back..."
Ba Qing said: "There are only three reasons. One is to seek the wealth of my Ba family, the other is to use my aunt to do things, and the third is to weaken the opponent's power."
Yu Wencheng also calmed down at this time: "Wealth is not necessarily the same. The master once said that if he wants to earn wealth, he must be the best in the world. Although my aunt may not like to hear it, this is the truth. Everything in the hands of the master is
It’s a huge amount of wealth.”
Ba Qing rather agreed. The scaled claw mentioned in the conversation just now can already explain a lot of problems.
"Secondly, it's hard to say if I want to use my aunt to do things. The master has always said that he has big ideas and needs someone to help him take care of them."
"What exactly does he want to do?" Ba Qing said with a hint of doubt: "This man has already become a king, and his fame and wealth have reached the pinnacle.
What else can you ask for?"
Yu Wencheng shook his head heartily: "I don't know about this either. Although the master is approachable and easy to get along with, he is very mysterious. No one can really see through his thoughts and purposes."
"Standing at such a pinnacle, he still wants to reach higher. His plans are very big..."
Yuwen Chengxin nodded: "But my aunt said that in terms of weakening the opponent, Chengxin thinks it is very possible, but it is not comprehensive..."
Ba Qing asked curiously: "Oh, what else?"
"Master rarely takes the initiative to find trouble for others. If he takes action, someone will definitely target him, so..."
She looked at Ba Qing and said, "So, the master is probably collecting debts!"
"Debt collection?" Ba Qing was stunned. How bold does this person have to be? To actually collect debts from the Supreme Emperor? Although the Supreme Emperor no longer cares about government affairs, he is after all the nominal pinnacle figure in Da Qin, the father of the empress, and the former ruler of the empire. This young man
The king actually asked him to collect debts, and succeeded, even forcing him to give himself away. You know, what an amazing wealth and huge network of people he represents.
Why did he do it? Was it with the Empress or with himself?
The words of the empress meant that she was involved in the most pinnacle political struggle in the Qin Dynasty, and she was on the losing side. The words of herself... Her heart was up and down, this young king was a bit too scary...
But... Ba Qing narrowed his eyes slightly: Even so, do you think it is so easy to swallow me, Ba Qing?
Jiang Fan naturally knew that it was not easy. Sure enough, although the news of Ba Qing being brought back was secret, it still set off an astonishing undercurrent.
First, at the court, a high-ranking official impeached him, saying that King Xiaoyao had acted wildly and rebelliously. He had arrested celebrities all over the world without any reason and set up private prisons to imprison him. He was arrogant and domineering and inconsistent with the law. He requested your majesty to severely punish him and give an explanation to the people of the world.
This move was actually approved by nearly 30% of the court officials.
Then thousands of merchants gathered in Yangdu, sat in meditation at the place where the Lord Shang had set up a pillar, and begged Great Qin for an explanation.
Soon, news came that the Nanchu envoys were on their way and would arrive in Daqin soon to question the unreasonable detention of Ba Qing, a citizen of Nanchu.
This was not over yet. News came from Xia, Wei, and Jin. Many celebrities and high-ranking officials were running to appeal, saying that the Qin Dynasty governed the country by laws but did not act according to the laws, and strictly demanded Ba Qing's release.
What’s more, thousands of shops in Qin State have closed down.
, to denounce King Xiaoyao. More than 300 people were involved in Yangdu alone.
The most outrageous thing is that there are tens of thousands of people in the Qin State who claim that their families were taken away for no reason, their livelihoods were cut off, and they complained to the officials in various places.
In short, in less than ten days, one Ba Qing caused countless riots.
"As expected of Ba Qing..." Jiang Fan pinched his chin, his eyes filled with admiration.
"Master, why did you arrest my aunt? Please tell me."
Yuwen Cheng was also full of doubts. Especially since Ba Qing was brought here, the master had not seen her for more than ten days. But he did not embarrass her. The whole palace went with her as long as she did not go out. But at night Ba Qing
Qing still consciously returned to the dungeon to spend the night.
Seeing the master smiling silently, Yu Wencheng felt helpless. The master's work was unpredictable, but didn't he understand the influence of his aunt? What good would it do to him to get to this point?
"Master, you have been indifferent for so many days. What are you thinking about? There is such a turmoil outside."
Jiang Fan waved her hand and said, "Let them go their own way. Have you had a good chat with your aunt these days?"
"Well..." Yu Wencheng nodded heartily: "As the master told me, I have said everything I can say."
"How did she react?"
"My aunt has always been a very reserved person. Some people call her Shi Guanyin. However, she has been acting a bit strange recently. She seems to be in a trance all day long, as if she is thinking hard about something."
Stone Buddha, Stone Guanyin... The Supreme Emperor is called Stone Buddha, and this wealthy widow is called Stone Guanyin. Does the Buddha sit under Guanyin?
Jiang Fan smiled lightly: "Did she ask you to tell her about the system you learned?"
Yu Wencheng shook his head heartily: "No, and every time this topic comes up, she interrupts, as if she doesn't want to talk in depth."
"Haha, interesting. It's just as I thought." Jiang Fan clapped his hands and was very happy.
Yu Wencheng became more and more confused: "Master, what kind of riddle are you two playing?"
Jiang Fan looked at her: "Cheng Xin, you are now on your own. You can use your brain to think more when something happens."
Yuwen Chengxin pouted: "Others are easy to guess and think, but Master, Chengxin can't do it for you."
Jiang Fan just shook his head and smiled: "Think slowly. Okay, let's not talk anymore. I'm going to see Fuyao."
