Chapter 142 We must deal with Concubine Liu first!



You know, although my cheap father has many followers in the court, it doesn’t mean that the Liu family has no power!

In fact, there are countless people in the court who change their minds according to the situation. As long as his Xiao family shows signs of decline, these people will become mad dogs and leave him no chance of making a comeback!

Therefore, those with the surname Liu must be eradicated!

Thinking of this, a hint of coldness flashed in Xiao Fan's eyes, but he quickly calmed down.

It is actually not difficult to deal with the Liu family. The difficult part is Concubine Liu!

Xiao Fan thought about it carefully. There was not much description about Concubine Liu in the original book, but every time she was mentioned, people would talk about her cruelty as well as her beauty and charm.

The beauty of Concubine Liu was not inferior to that of Princess Kangding, and her beauty made her almost the most favored in the palace!

But now that I think about it, it's quite strange that Concubine Liu is favored.

After only three years in the palace, she became a noble concubine.

Xiao Fan didn't believe that she didn't use any tricks to meet people!

If you want to deal with the Liu family, you must first get rid of Concubine Liu!

Thinking about this, Xiao Fan felt his brain a little tired.

Now that he put all these things together, Xiao Fan discovered the trouble with these things.

But now that the decision has been made, we have to solve them one by one!

Xiao Fan was thinking about this in his mind, and he stood up suddenly.

"Go to Tianhe Rice Shop!" Xiao Fan spoke directly in the shocked eyes of Tianba and Qinglian.

"Ah?" Xiao Da was stunned when he heard Xiao Fan's words. Then he remembered Xiao Fan's interrogation and that the Xiao family's disaster relief grain was exchanged for silver at the Tianhe Rice Shop.

Now that the young master wants to go to this place, he must have his own ideas.

Thinking that Xiao Da didn't want to waste any more time, he turned around and headed towards Tianhe Rice Shop.

The capital city, which is the foot of the emperor, is a completely different world from the war-torn border.

The people of the capital can almost be said to live a life of luxury.

The streets were crowded with people and looked prosperous.

The Xiao family's carriage was rampaging on the street.

Xiao Fan had already understood that if he wanted to overthrow the Liu family, he couldn't just rely on impulse. Even if he asked Tianba to kill someone secretly, it would only make things more complicated for him!

If this is discovered in the end, it will be difficult to explain to my stepfather, let alone the emperor.

In this situation, if you still want to deal with the Liu family, you can only start with evidence of their corruption.

This Tianhe Rice Shop is the key!

The passersby on the road looked at the reckless carriage and couldn't help but ask, "Whose carriage is it? Are they in such a hurry to die?"

"You're crazy! That's the Xiao family's carriage! Be careful what you say!"

The person next to him quickly spoke up to remind him.

After hearing this, the person who was cursing immediately shut up.

Xiao Fan had been very quiet during this period, and his reputation as a playboy had diminished considerably. However, diminished status did not mean it had disappeared; Xiao Fan's presence still cast a shadow over the common people.

Having said this at this moment, no one dared to complain.

Of course, Xiao Fan knew nothing about these changes.

Only after the carriage had gone far away did the people gradually become bolder.

"Why are you so arrogant? I don't think the Xiao family's complacency will last long!"

"Oh, you're not afraid of being discovered when you say that!"

As it turned out, Xiao Fan's reputation in the capital was completely different from his reputation in the refugee camp.

Soon they arrived at Tianhe Rice Shop.

From a distance, Xiao Fan saw the rice shop that was crowded with people. There were already many people queuing up in the rice shop, and everyone was buying rice.

There were a few servants guarding the rice shop, looking ferocious. Someone was yelling at them.

Faced with these two ferocious men, the people dared not speak out.

The price of rice in the capital was unreasonably high during this period. There were other rice shops in the capital before, but no one knew what had happened, and they all closed overnight.

The only rice shop open in the capital now is Tianhe Rice Shop.

It is precisely because of this that, faced with the repeated price increases of rice, the people dare not say anything even though they are angry.

They are human beings and they need to eat.

At this moment, several servants suddenly came out of the rice shop. Each of them looked ferocious and ferocious, as if they were taking advantage of the power of the tiger.

At this moment, after several people came out, they first glanced at the people, and then one of them said, "Today's rice price is five taels of silver per liter!"

Suddenly the crowd was in an uproar.

"Wasn't it three taels of silver before? How come it has become five taels of silver now? If you do this, will you let us eat?"

"That's right, we're already out of food! Now we've finally managed to scrape together some money, why are prices going up again?"

At this moment, the people all looked malnourished, and there was resentment in everyone's voice.

This sudden price increase is simply bad news for them!

When the servants heard what the people were saying, they stood up and their eyes fell on the middle-aged man who spoke first.

In their opinion, this man was the one causing trouble!

If we want to calm the people down at this moment, we can only... kill the chicken to scare the monkey!

"I think you are looking for death!" One of them stared at the middle-aged man and spoke fiercely.

Suddenly, the middle-aged man's face showed panic. He waved his hands quickly, "Uncle, I, I didn't! I just came to buy rice!"

The middle-aged man was accompanied by two girls who were only seven or eight years old. When they saw their father being bullied, the two little girls rushed up and held the boy's thighs.

"Get out, you little bastard!"

As the man spoke, someone immediately came forward, grabbed the two girls and dragged them back.

The servant who was holding the middle-aged man slapped him in the face without hesitation.

Suddenly half of the man's face became red and swollen.

However, faced with such an outrageous scene, the people still dared not speak out.

Seeing their father being beaten, the two girls' eyes immediately turned red. They grabbed the boy's hands and bit them directly, "Bad guys, let go of your father!"

While they were struggling, the two girls were lifted up high.

An unbearable scene was about to happen.

Suddenly, something unexpected happened.

The man who was about to take action flew backwards in an instant, hit the wall hard and fell to the ground, spurting out a mouthful of blood.

"Who! Who did it!"

All the servants started yelling at once, and then they saw a strong man as big as a mountain.

At this moment, Tianba just stood there, looking at these people coldly.

In an instant, all the servants fell silent.
