Chapter 540; Future
"I'm afraid you can't do it this time."
As soon as Lu Yaoyao said these words, the person in charge of the Luo family opposite was slightly startled, frowned and asked cautiously, "Has the princess heard anything?"
To be honest, the Luo family did a lot of things like collecting grain to make the country rich, otherwise Emperor Hongwen wouldn't have hated the people of the aristocratic family so much at the beginning.
Although the Luo family and the Dong family are now pro-emperor faction, Emperor Hongwen temporarily gave up his suppression and plans against them.
But that was only temporary. Now they would seek refuge with the imperial court. To put it bluntly, it was because the imperial court had something in its hands that could suppress them.
But if these things cannot suppress them in the future, it will probably be another situation.
Therefore, Emperor Hongwen will never let the aristocratic family have an easy time. Even if he has no intention of touching the Dong family and the Luo family now, he will never let them have an easy time in the future.
"Do you need to hear anything else?"
"Don't you know what your situation is?"
Hearing this, the person in charge of the Luo family was startled. Lu Yaoyao on the other side continued, "You should have seen the emperor's actions now. He is taking back the military power bit by bit."
"The Duke of Zhenguo probably won't be able to stay alive for long. I'm afraid the military power will soon be returned to the emperor's hands."
"As for the current situation in Northern Chu and Southern Xinjiang, Mr. Luo should have heard some rumors."
"There will inevitably be a war, but before that, Dongzhou must be stabilized. Will the emperor, who has military power, allow such unstable factors as yours to exist?"
After hearing this, the person in charge of the Luo family suddenly looked a little ugly.
He naturally knew what Lu Yaoyao was talking about about Northern Chu and Southern Xinjiang, and he also knew that a war would inevitably break out in the near future, otherwise they wouldn't be stocking up on grains to prepare for the country's difficult fortunes.
However, they did not think too deeply, or they all had too much trust in Zhen Guogong, thinking that if the emperor and Zhen Guogong clashed, the winner in the end would be Zhen Guogong.
After all, the past performance of the Duke of this town really made them a little too optimistic.
And what about Emperor Hongwen? In the past ten years or so, he has been almost dominated by the Duke of Zhenguo, so in their hearts, they don't take Emperor Hongwen too seriously at all.
But at this moment, when Lu Yaoyao said these words, the person in charge of the Luo family had to reconsider.
First of all, as far as Lu Yaoyao is concerned, this is definitely a master with extraordinary ability. He has changed so many places in Dongzhou by himself, and now he has business and industry. Although he is not a noble family, no other noble family can.
Dare to underestimate.
Even the Duke of Zhen Guo was extremely afraid of her. Perhaps it was because of his trust in the strong and capable. The person in charge of the Luo family believed what Lu Yaoyao said in his heart.
Of course, not only did he trust her completely because he admired her abilities, but more importantly because Lu Yaoyao had no reason to scare him with such alarmist remarks.
First of all, she has neither money nor resources. Even if she wants to buy food this time, if she really speaks seriously, even if the Luo family can only sell food for 50,000 taels, what if she finds other aristocratic families or businessmen?
?
Who can't give her some face?
If the whole family gets a little, they can fully achieve the quantity she needs, so there is no need to scare him by saying these things.
"The Duke of Zhen is now in the north, and that is his territory, he."
"What about his territory? Bei Chu is eyeing it. Once Bei Chu launches a full-scale attack, he will definitely bear the brunt. Do you think the emperor will fully support him by then?"
Hearing this, Mr. Luo was about to say something when he was interrupted by Lu Yaoyao.
"You will definitely say that he can still seek refuge in Beichu."
"But don't forget that Beichu and Dongzhou are feuding. Let's not talk about anything else. As for the soldiers and generals in the north, how many of them had their fathers, brothers, friends, and relatives killed at the hands of the people from Beichu."
"The Duke of Zhen Guo wants to defect to Beichu, but what about these people? Will they?"
"There is a blood feud. As long as the emperor incites it a little, many people under Zhen Guo Gong will probably defect. Duke Zhen Guo knows this very well, so he used Bei Chu to leave the capital and immediately kept a distance from Bei Chu.
"
The person in charge of the Luo family was silent.
"I won't say more. As for the food, I want that amount. Mr. Luo will go back and think about it. It would be best if he can give it. If he can't give it, that's okay. I can find more people to help."
"Well, I have to discuss this matter with my family. It will take a few days. Please be patient, Princess."
"Ten days, Mr. Luo can give me an answer after ten days."
"good."
Mr. Luo nodded and stood up, cupped his hands and said, "I'll take my leave now."
"Qiu Shuang sees Mr. Luo off for me."
Not long after, Qiu Shuang came back.
"Miss, will the Luo family agree?"
Hearing this, Lu Yaoyao shook his head and said, "I'm not sure yet, but if they are smart enough, they should agree."
"But I'm not sure. After all, money is attractive to people. What if they want to be greedy this time? It's hard to say not."
"Then if they want to be greedy this time, what will be the result?"
"result?"
"Once the emperor takes back the military power, their life will not be easy. I'm afraid that after the Han family and the Wu family are dealt with, the Luo family will also be dealt with."
In the past, Emperor Hongwen had no military power, so he was hampered everywhere. When he had military power, the aristocratic family still dared to jump around, and no one could kill you.
On the other side, the person in charge of the Luo family who returned to the capital immediately wrote a letter and arranged for you to rush back to the family.
Time was tight. Although Lu Yaoyao gave him ten days, it would still take three or four days if he didn't rest on the road.
Moreover, this matter is of great importance and always needs to be discussed by the important figures in the family.
After finishing everything, he went to the person in charge of the Dong family, and then went to the home of Prime Minister Dong.
"What the princess said makes sense. Today is different from the past. Some things cannot be handled the same as before."
Hearing this, the person in charge of the Luo family asked with an even more ugly expression, "Is it impossible to escape the fate of being settled by the emperor?"
"There are several ways to settle accounts, but since the princess asked the Luo family to help, it is considered a favor from the Luo family. Maybe she can help the Luo family by asking."
"Of course, it's impossible not to be completely settled. In the future, I'm afraid I won't be able to do the same as before, and I will lose something. But in terms of business, there shouldn't be too much loss."
"It also depends on the choices of the elders in your family."
The person in charge of the Luo family nodded.
On his way back just now, he thought about this matter over and over again. The score would definitely be settled.
But to what extent this is the key. To be honest, he definitely doesn't want the Luo family to suffer any losses, and he came to see Dong Xiang for this purpose.
But now that Dong Xiang has said this, he has already made a plan in his heart. If the family has less things, they can have less. If there is no problem in the business, they can continue to be rich.
There is no chance in the future.
