Li Zheng saw that the atmosphere was tense, so he calmly walked forward and said hello with a smile, trying to ease the atmosphere.

"Haha... Isn't this the steward of Young Master Lin? Why are you bringing so many people here this time?"

When Yu Xiao saw that the person coming was the leader of the group, the disdainful look on his face softened a bit. "I don't want to be a steward. My name is Yu Xiao. I am just a follower of our young master.

This time I came here for the sake of leeks. Our household consumes a lot of food ingredients, and the demand for leeks is even more urgent.

The leeks I bought from you a few days ago are very fresh and delicious, and the young master likes them very much. So I was sent here this time to buy some more. "

Li Zheng sighed inwardly after hearing this. It's not that they don't want to make money, it's just that there is no sun in this weather. Leeks are a food that can grow continuously without the sun.

So everyone relies on leeks as food to fill their stomachs. Everyone has already agreed that the leeks will not be sold until the sun shines.

Another important reason is that I have made an appointment with Li Qingxiu before planting leeks. This kind of leeks can be grown without the sun, which is also one of the planting techniques.

No one outside the Lihua Valley should know this. If it were leaked, Li Qingxiu would really break their legs and feed them to the wolves.

With a smile on his face, he said tactfully: "Brother Yu, you also know that the growth of this leek requires sunlight, but now that it has not seen sunlight for a long time, the leek cannot grow.

The ones we sold to Mr. Lin before are all ours. Yesterday we went up the mountain to look everywhere, but we couldn't find even a single chive. "

Yu Xiao has lived in the palace for so many years and has never seen any conspiracy. The middle-aged man in front of him just now had his eyes evasive and pondered for a while. Now, if he says there is no chives, he will not believe it even if he is beaten to death.

He believed that these untouchables were unwilling to sell leeks either because they wanted to raise the price or they were living on leeks.

Originally, he didn't want to reveal his identity, as it seemed that Prince Zhao's palace was using its power to suppress others, but in the end, the ignorant pariahs in front of him didn't know how powerful they were unless they were given some color.

Yu Xiao snorted coldly and said: "Huh, I see you don't have chives. Don't think I don't know. You must be hiding it and want to take the opportunity to raise the price!"

Hearing this, Li Zheng couldn't help but feel a surge of anger in his heart, but opposite him was a servant from the second generation of an official.

He still suppressed his anger and explained: "Brother Yu, you have misunderstood us. We are all honest country people and we definitely have no such thoughts."

Seeing how aggressive Yu Xiao was, Li Erzhuang couldn't help but stand up and said: "If we say no, it means no. You are so arrogant and unreasonable. Are you trying to buy and sell by force?"

Li Zheng was startled, and he quickly signaled Li Erzhuang to stop talking. In front of him were the servants of the magistrate, and they, the powerless people, could not afford to offend him.

When Yu Xiao saw this, his eyes became fierce and he threatened: "How impudent! It's your blessing that Prince Zhao's Mansion likes your chives! If you don't sell it to us, don't blame us for being rude!"

Everyone was confused when they heard the word "Prince Zhao's Mansion". How could the group of guards opposite be from King Zhao? Last time I heard Li Zheng say that it was sold to the magistrate.

Li Zheng suspected that he had heard wrong, and asked with an ugly face: "Brother Yu, you just said that your residence is Prince Zhao's residence, are you sure you are right? I remember that we sold the chives at the magistrate's residence."

Yu Xiao slightly raised her chin and said arrogantly: "That's because the magistrate's mansion happened to be vacant, so our young master moved in. Do we want our young master to live in a dirty inn?

To tell you the truth, our young master is the future heir apparent of the Zhao Palace! So those of you who are sensible should obediently hand over the leeks. "

Li Qingxiu sneered in her heart. Good guy, after showing his trump card, it turned into a robbery. Before, he said he wanted to buy it, but now he wants them to hand over the leek directly.

However, Li Qingxiu didn't care what the other person's background was or whoever liked it, she wouldn't give it to him anyway.

Li Zheng and Li Dazhuang looked at each other and saw shock in each other's eyes. They never expected that the gentle and polite Mr. Lin Zhe from last time would be the future heir apparent of Prince Zhao's palace.

At this moment, Li Zheng felt regretful in his heart, why would he sell such good leeks to the ruthless son of Prince Zhao?

When Yu Xiao saw that the untouchables opposite did not dare to say a word, he knew that they must be afraid.

The smile on his face became more and more proud: "Have you thought about it clearly? If you think about it clearly, hand over the leek obediently, so as not to ask for trouble."

It's just that he thought wrong. No matter whether he was from King Zhao or not, Li Zheng couldn't sell him the leek. First, I originally said there was no chives, but now I bring out the chives. Isn’t this a slap in the face?

Second, after selling the leeks, how can he explain why there are still leeks in this situation?

Moreover, if they sell it this time, they will come again next time, and the old and young in the Pear Blossom Valley will not have enough to eat.

So, Satoshi held back his nausea and showed a flattering smile on his face. "Brother Yu, I didn't expect you to be from King Zhao. You have a bright future. It's just that we don't want to sell it.

We really can’t provide leeks. In this kind of weather, leeks won’t grow at all. "

Yu Xiao's face sank. He didn't expect that these people would not give Prince Zhao's house any face. "You said it so categorically, can you let us search it?"

Everyone's hearts tightened. They didn't expect that the scoundrels from Prince Zhao's Mansion actually wanted to search their home.

How can you search for these losers? Their cured meats and pickles are not for everyone.

There are also chickens, rabbits, pigs and so many horses in the backyard, as well as vegetables in the greenhouse. What if they are spotted and snatched away by these weaklings?

Yu Xiao clearly saw a layer of cold sweat breaking out on Li Zheng's forehead opposite him. He smiled and said, "Oh, Li Zheng, why are you sweating? You can rest assured that we only want leek, and we won't do anything else." Thinking about it."

"You are just a servant of Prince Zhao's Mansion, not the master of Prince Zhao's Mansion. You have no right to search our house!"

A female voice with a childlike voice suddenly sounded, causing everyone to react. That's right, the group of people opposite are just a bunch of losers, why should they be allowed to search as they please? It's not like King Zhao or some heir apparent.

Li Zheng felt another thump in his heart. Although what Li Qingxiu said made sense, he still hoped that Li Qingxiu wouldn't say anything because he didn't want Li Qingxiu to get into trouble.

Yu Xiao heard the voice coming from the mouth of an eight or nine-year-old girl behind Li Zheng.

He looked Li Qingxiu up and down, and said with disdain in his eyes: "What do you know, a girl? We people from Prince Zhao's Mansion can search whose house we want. Do you think our master will do it for you guys?" Do the bitches uphold justice?”
