The front of the grain shop was full of people. Everyone was afraid that the price of food will increase again, so they were hurrying to pay. But the next moment, an official beat the gong in the street and said: “Reporting back from the front line, Xiao Wangye came back safe and will return with his army to the front line. They will soon face the Northern Army, everyone, be at ease!”

*Dong * After he finished, he beat the gong again to remind the people along the street.

“Everyone, be at ease. Xiao Wangye brought back his army in the front line. We will win this battle!”

The imperial court was so active to make an announcement. After all, some unscrupulous businessmen made use of Xiao Tianyao’s disappearance to make a fortune in war, forcing the emperor to take a shot.

Well, these unscrupulous merchants, one of them was Su Cha!

It’s not that Su Cha was shameless, but all the businessmen were. Su Cha was actually pretty kind. The price of the Su Family’s grain shops has the lowest price compared to others. And today, the price of their grain returned to the normal price, which helped a lot more families.

As soon as official news came out, what else people should be worried about?

“Traitor, treacherous trader, you treacherous trader, even after learning that Xiao Wangye is safe, you still raise the price of food. Smash them, everyone, let’s smash this shop altogether that took our money.”

The people, who busily bought grains in front of the grain shop, when they heard the official news, they felt wrong. They spent a lot of money, so they immediately get angry. Whether it was against the law or not, they smashed the shops and grab the grains.

The law was there, these profiteers cheat them first, so even if they smashed the shop, they will only be jailed for a few days, but robbing the grain was a big deal... ...

When someone took the lead, the others immediately followed. The big grain shops in the capital were smashed and robbed. Su Family’s grain shop was no exception, but their shops slightly look much better. Their grains outside were robbed, but the rest remained intact.

The incident was too big, several people died during the robbery. When this news reached the palace, the emperor was furious and ordered the officer to severely punish the merchants, who raised prices arbitrarily, and at the same time locked up the people who caused trouble.

Such an event happened at the foot of the emperor, so naturally, it attracted the imperial court’s attention. The next day, there was an impeachment event happening in the imperial court, saying this incident was caused by Xiao Wangye’s willful behavior and corrupt officials. So they asked the emperor to punish Xiao Wangye to serve as an example.

Xiao Tianyao was on the front line. How he will be severely punished?

Of course, some also came forward to speak for Xiao Wangye and said it has nothing to do with him. Obviously, the court officials didn’t try to appease the people, making them scared and panic by the sudden disappearance of Xiao Wangye.

As soon as the emperor heard of this, his face drastically changed. He withdrew the man’s official position on the spot and ordered to be punished by twenty boards.

To say that the imperial officials didn’t appease the people, does it mean that he was an incompetent emperor? He, the dignified emperor was sitting in the capital, but he cannot appease the people near him?

The emperor knew very well that Xiao Tianyao’s disappearance was to bring his army out in the dense forest. The emperor was originally very dissatisfied with Xiao Tianyao’s behavior. So when the palace officials mentioned it, his dissatisfaction became twelve points.

Regardless of whether the emperor was being unreasonable, he immediately sent a decree to reprimand Xiao Wangfu, all the responsibility of merchants increasing the price of foods and the people’s responsibility for looting food will be shouldered by Xiao Wangfu. Xiao Wangfu has to pay 200,000 silver... ...

When the eunuch finished reading the imperial edict, Lin Chujiu was stunned.

The price of food increased. What did the other people in the front line do? Their wangye only has gone missing for a few days. How will he know that those unscrupulous merchants will use this to increase the price and people will rob the food?

It’s not like they didn’t encounter trouble before, but it wasn’t serious like this.

Is this a premeditated plan?

Emperor, you are too cruel!

This kind of charge, isn’t he trying to ruin their wangye’s reputation?
