"It's unlikely that these businessmen are having fornication with foreigners, right?"

"Yes, they are so rich, why would they have an affair with a foreigner? They couldn't be wronged, right?"

"That's not necessarily true. If it wasn't for having an affair with a foreigner, how could they have gotten so much money!"

"What Xiongtai said makes sense, but these businessmen have backers in both the government and the government, so I'm afraid it won't be easy to solve."

"That's wrong. I didn't understand that this was an order from the prince. Could it be that those ministers are older than the prince?"

As soon as they heard Qin Hu tell the reason for the siege here, the people started talking a lot, and all kinds of speculations came. Some were good and some were bad, but they were different anyway.

However, the comments of the people could not hinder the actions of the officers and soldiers. People from the thirteen merchant families who were mentioned were soon arrested in front of Qin Hu and the other five. Of course, they certainly could not catch everyone. After all, these

Businessmen do not stay at home, most of them still have to sell goods outside.

"My lord, this is unjust. How dare ordinary people have fornication with foreigners!"

"Yes, even if you give us great courage, you don't dare to have an affair with a foreigner!"

"Sir, Cao Min is just a responsible businessman. We have paid all the taxes and money that the court asked us to pay in time. It is absolutely impossible for us to have an affair with a foreigner!"

"My lord, this is unjust, my lord..."

There were dozens or hundreds of people in the families of these caught businessmen, and they all knelt on the street. It was very spectacular. Especially when so many people were shouting that they were wronged, everyone within a kilometer radius could hear them.

arrive.

"Shut up! Anyone who makes a loud noise again will be beaten with fifty sticks!"

Qin Hu's eyes widened and his eyes slowly swept over these people. Qin Hu had killed many bandits and bandits. How could the coldness radiating from his eyes be resisted by these businessmen who were used to a prosperous life? Hearing Qin Hu's

After a while, they all shut their mouths honestly.

"Thirty days ago, Zhang Datong of the Zhang family, under the protection of his home guard leader Zhang Erniu and fifteen guards, escorted 500 kilograms of salt and 1,500 kilograms of grain for trade with Turks; twenty-five days ago, Zhang Dameng, ten Under the protection of famous guards, 400 kilograms of salt and 1,100 kilograms of grain were transported to Tibet for trade; Zhang Huize, twenty days ago..."

"Twenty-nine days ago, Xu Shengchang of the Xu family, under the protection of the family's head guard Xu Dakai and thirty guards, escorted 350 daggers and 3,200 kilograms of iron and steel for trade with the Turks; Xu Shengrong, 22 days ago, in Under the protection of forty guards at home, they escorted three hundred daggers and two thousand five hundred kilograms of iron to be traded with Tibet; Xu Shengqian, fifteen days ago..."

"The Liu family..."

"The Xu family..."

"Wang family..."

Qin Hu unfolded the evidence in his hand and read it out one by one. Those whose names were read out suddenly turned pale and lost six of their seven souls. The guards whose names were read out were also frightened. At this moment, Qin Hu has evidence in his hands. The crime of liaison with foreigners can range from death to death to confiscate the family and exterminate the clan. Who wouldn't be afraid!

"My lord, this matter has nothing to do with me. It was done by them. Sir, we are innocent!"

"My lord, this is unjust. I didn't know about this either. Who knew they would do such treasonous things!"

"Sir, we are innocent, sir, we have been wronged!"

At this time, those whose names were not read out shouted innocent, while those whose names were read out were abandoned mercilessly. These are businessmen, who use the phrase "they fly away when disaster strikes" to describe them. It couldn't be more appropriate.

"I didn't expect these businessmen to actually have fornication with foreigners. They are really a group of people who only have interests!"

"These businessmen are really hateful. They have fornicated with foreigners. They should all be killed!"

"Fortunately, His Highness the Crown Prince was wise and caught all these businessmen who were having liaisons with foreigners!"

"His Royal Highness is so wise!"

Seeing Qin Hu presenting the evidence and reading it out, while the businessmen were biting each other, the people watching also knew that these businessmen were indeed having fornications with foreigners, and they all showed a look of disgust. Scholars, farmers, workers, merchants, and businessmen all His status is already low, and now that something like this has happened, he is even more looked down upon.

"Whether you are innocent or not, His Highness the Crown Prince will find out. The innocent people will be given justice, but no guilty person can escape the net!"

Qin Hu looked at these loudly mumbling businessmen and said viciously. The five Qin Hu people were originally soldiers from Taiyuan. They also experienced the war of Turks siege the city, and they also knew the bravery of the Turks very well. Therefore, for these handlers, Selling military supplies to Turkic businessmen is not a good idea at all.

"Come here, take all these people into prison and wait for His Royal Highness to deal with them."
