Chapter 5 Why is he?

When the king of Chu heard the report of Ruo Ao Ziyan and Cheng Jia, his mouth opened in shock, "What did you say?"

"Father, this is the due amount of the treasury that the tent on the horse's side has counted for the father, but now it has more than doubled. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info" Mi Huang said in a deep voice, and at the same time ordered Mo Lao to present the empty astronomical numbers in the account book to the King of Chu for inspection.

Then he ordered Cheng Jia to take out the disaster relief account books and testimony that he had stolen from Zhou's mansion before, "and this account book is the account book about the disaster relief replacement case that Cheng Si found out, and the evidence that before Zheng died, he pointed out that Zhou Mu instructed him to guard and steal disaster food." ā€

King Chu took them one by one, and the more he looked at them, the more shocked he became.

In the end, I only felt that the sky was spinning for a while, and the sky was about to fall.

"This week Mu, the widow entrusted him with a heavy responsibility, and he managed the treasury for the widow like this?!"

As soon as he slapped the account book on the table, the king of Chu jumped up and walked around the emperor's bedroom, eager to speak violently, "His grandmother's, can the widow's life be better......?" Don't you know that it's not easy for a widow to fight the country, and it also costs money?!......

Zhao Changshou kept persuading the king of Chu to calm his anger, but the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, "Changde, how do you tell me to calm my anger? He is so bold, no wonder he has been arguing about having no money when he was fighting Yongguo before, and he was clamoring for money when he was fighting for disaster relief, and the widow was the one who had the least money! I was kept in the dark, and I spent all the money and grain in the treasury on the first war of Yongguo! After doing it for a long time, he was all secretly swallowed by him......

"No, I'm going to copy his whole family, no, I'm going to copy his ancestors for eight generations! Go, Huang'er, bring someone to copy them all! Tell him to spit out all those things that I swallowed from my father, otherwise the widow will let him die without a whole body." King Chu ordered.

"Yes, Father!"

Mi Huang didn't say anything, gave up his hand, and immediately went out of the emperor's dormitory with the jade decree.

The eyes took a deep look, and the entire Yingdu was falling into a grand carnival.

Slowly tighten the jade decree in his hand.

Along the way, Huang Yuwei followed the woman in front of him like a fire, and rushed to the main city avenue, the north and south streets, which were supplemented by a luxurious red carpet.

What I heard in my ears were the officials, traders, people, and homeless people from all over the city, all of whom poured into the streets to compete for their heads, with ribbons in the sky, ceremonial flowers blooming, and countless singers singing and laughing on the streets, spreading the whole city.

Everyone cheered and shook the sky, and the momentum was amazing.

Such a luxurious scene should have lasted all night, adding another splendid splendor to the Yingdu of Chu State.

But it was destined to come to an abrupt end because of their arrival.

In Ruo Ao's mansion, Li Lao Wang Yin and the others surrounded the two families on the seat, talking and laughing and drinking non-stop, and Zhou Mu was also happily holding Ruo Ao Yuejiao and Ruo Ao Ziliang with one hand, making Yin Zi like chattering about the splendid words of "kissing and kissing, one glory and common prosperity".

The hall was full of laughter and glory.

Just then, the butler stumbled in from outside.

The housekeeper was sent out to pick up people like Yin Zi, and he was also the old man in this mansion, and he was calm, even if the young lady in the mansion saw him, he would give him three points of thin noodles, and he had some guts, but this would be a big mess.

Ling Yin Zi's brows furrowed suddenly, and he reprimanded, "What's the matter with the panic?!Don't you see what this place is?"

"My lord, but the princess and the son, and the adult are here...... Here we are......" the butler stammered back.

"It's coming, it's coming, what's the hurry?"

Qi Huang and Ruo Ao Ziyan, who were supposed to attend the wedding banquet, didn't come, what happened to Yin Ziban?

Ruo Ao Yuejiao, who heard the words, turned cold in an instant, and looked outside Chu Zhongtang, only to hear a shout of "Lady, the horse is here", which came in from Xiao Zhengzi's sharp voice, like an ice rain poured on the already lively and extraordinary Fugui Hall.

The phoenix feather guards in fiery red and angry armor, all holding cold soldiers, strode into the hall with a frost-shrouded phoenix, without the slightest smile on their faces, and even Ruo Ao Ziyan and Cheng Jia beside her were silent.

This battle is definitely not here to drink happy wine!

On the huge Chu Zhong Hall, hundreds of distinguished guests, delicate guests, all exclaimed: What are you doing here?

Cheng Qingqing watched in shock as her second brother and Brother Ziyan walked behind the princess together, and blinked stupidly, "Did what I just thought come true?"

But except for her, the other people in the hall all changed their expressions in an instant.

Everyone's eyes were glued to Mi Huang and Ruo Ao Ziyan, who had a cold face, and they muttered in their hearts.

Mi Huang didn't speak.

Ruo Ao Ziyan glanced at Cheng Jia.

Cheng Xi nodded slightly, took out the jade decree of the king of Chu and held it in his hand, with a pair of eyes that had never been light and light, seeing that the century-old wealth and glory of the Zhou family that Zhou Mu had painstakingly saved was about to turn into droplets, he silently sank his eyes and preached loudly, "The king's jade decree has arrived, and Zhou Mu has accepted the decree!"

All the guests who came to congratulate were shocked, even Ling Yin Ziban was not happy, and asked in a deep voice, "What is the king's decree to proclaim, to use such a battle?"

If it is the will of the reward, it is not this posture at all.

Huang Yuwei replied to Ling Yinzi's words with actions, crossed his sword, and rushed to Chu Zhongtang.

Chu Zhongtang, which was originally noisy, immediately heard the sound of people turning over their horses.

The ministers kept looking at each other left and right in shock, and conveyed the news with their eyes: Could it be that the disaster relief case has been found out?

On such a good day, this wouldn't have happened.

No way?

Is it really in response to the old saying - blessing and misfortune!

Zhou Mu was escorted out by several Jingwei of the Phoenix Feather Guard, kicked his military boots hard, and immediately knelt on his legs on the ground, looked at Cheng Jia standing in the hall, and asked, "Nephew Chengxian, what are you doing here?"

Cheng Jia didn't say anything, just glanced down at him lightly, and slowly unfolded the jade decree in his hand.

Qingsheng preached: "The war of Chu has just been peaceful, the family is stabilized, and the rest is imminent, but some people use their power for personal gain, bully the king, do not pay attention to the family and the country, form a party for personal gain, and encroach on the public weapons of the country, causing great disappointment to the subjects of the world, and the people are deeply suffering. Today, it has been verified by the Criminal Prison Department that the left disciple Zhou Mu has rebelled against all kinds of evils, committed serious crimes, and is heinous. The widow hated him to the bone, and he couldn't be angry, so he ordered the whole family to be taken into custody immediately, and the family property was confiscated, so as to fill the treasury, exterminate the three clans, and all of them will be beheaded at noon tomorrow!

Chin!"

As the elder of the Three Dynasties, the old man Zhou, sitting in the hall and hearing the words, his weak body trembled, glanced at Zhou Mu, the only son in the hall, and then looked back at the children and grandchildren present up and down, and the black heads looked at him in horror and panic.

A mouthful of sweet blood welled up in his throat and he fainted.

Ling Yin Ziban was in front of him, and when he saw this, he immediately ordered Doctor Xuan, but the treatment on the spot was ineffective.

Zhou Mu screamed and wanted to pounce.

But the long sword in Huang Yuwei's hand was on his neck and could not move.

All the descendants of the Zhou family hurriedly gathered around, and suddenly there was a festive hall, mourning everywhere, how could there be any joy just now.

Huang Yuwei rushed to the hall again, and escorted out the men, women and children of the Zhou family who participated in the wedding banquet one by one, all adult men were stripped of their clothes on the spot, took off their crown belts, stripped off their silk shoes, and wore only a profane dress, put on chains and shackles, and more than 50 catties of iron chains, and the sons and daughters of the family who were originally high in the family suddenly bent their backs, couldn't raise their heads, and could only look at everyone in horror.

Just now they were still in the splendid clouds, and in the blink of an eye, they were shackled.

Things are really unpredictable.

Seeing this, several elderly ministers changed color one after another, and retreated from the Zhou family with a frightened face, as if they were some terrible rebellion.

Zhou Mu wore shackles, raised his hand and pointed to the ministers who were usually good friends with him and said, "Elder Li, Lord Wang, you have a word for me............ and finally slowly turned his head to look at Ruo Ao Yuejiao, "Virtuous son-in-law, Lord Sima, Lord Ling Yin, save me! A ...... of all the glory"

"Bold, traitor!"

Yue Jiao's eyes sank when he heard this, and he snorted, and said to everyone in the direction of Zhu Palace, "Lord Zhou, you have embezzled the Great King's Treasury, even if you are now my Yuejiao Lord Yueshan, but this official, as the Captain of Tiger Ben, has a holy grace, and will never shield you!

Then Lu Yi stepped forward and immediately removed his jaw, leaving him speechless at all.

He could only keep shaking his head, glaring at Yue Jiao, and making a "woo ......" cry from his mouth.

The ministers breathed a sigh of relief.

for fear that he would bite someone.

The Treasury case was different from the disaster relief case, it was enough to rob the family and destroy the clan a hundred times, and it was not enough to eliminate the great sin that their king hated.

If Ao Ziliang had ever seen such a scene, he was stunned for a while before he woke up suddenly, and said in surprise, "Yue'er, how can you be so right...... but looking at Ling Yinzi's eyes like looking at him, he finally accepted the words behind.

Ling Yin Zi's face was obscure and he grabbed Ruoao Daliang, who was about to speak, and said loudly, "Big brother, this is the king's holy message, we will definitely obey!"

It's just that his eyes are looking past everyone to look at his son who has been standing by the gate.

Didn't speak for a long time.

This kind of thing of catching people and robbing their homes!

It never happened to them in the Ao clan.

Now it was his son who rushed in with someone, calling him the first order of the Chu State, Yin, in front of the Manchu Dynasty, where would he have face?

All the eyes were condensed on Ling Yin's body in an instant, and he saw Zi standing on the high sixth-level jade steps, his face gloomy, and his eyes were brewing an unprecedented storm, but he just didn't say a word.

Ruo Ao Zike stood on the lower steps, touched his chin without smoothness, and smiled slyly, "It seems that there is a good show to watch this time." ā€

On Chu Zhongtang, the sound of crying, arresting, and exclamation were intertwined.

In the end, there is a great silence.

Ruo Ziyan stepped forward without fear and said to Ling Yin, "Father, Lord Zhou has a negative grace, so let it be handed over to Lord Cheng and Huang Yuwei here." ā€

Ling Yin Zi didn't care about Zhou Mu, just looked at his son and asked, "I hope you can give your father a satisfactory answer later." ā€

Then, without waiting for his son's answer, he walked out with a flick of his sleeves, and at the same time said to the other ministers, "Ladies and gentlemen, let's go out first! ā€

Li Lao and the others naturally shook their heads, "Lord Ling Yin, no one wants this kind of thing...... Let's get out of here, everybody!"

The housekeeper was busy with the people who invited all the guests out.

Li Lao stroked his gray beard, looked at Zhou Mu who couldn't speak on the ground, and sighed, "The king must be heartbroken!"

Gong Yijin, who had not been very happy tonight, passed by his side and spat heavily at Zhou Mu, who was rolling on the ground in pain.

He scolded disdainfully, "You are a fool of the skin, just loot the people's fat and ointment, and dare to be greedy even for the king's treasury, it is really bold! Sure enough, God is long-eyed and will not let anyone go!"

Wang Yin looked at Ruo Ao Ziyan and praised him, "Horse, princess, Lord Cheng's move has done a great harm to my Chu country!"

So passing by the courtiers beside Zhou Mu.

Look at him again, the eyes have changed.

There was no longer the initial compliment and intimacy, and they all expressed their severance of friendship with him in righteous words.

This is the friendship in the court!

When you fall into the clouds one day, you are only worthy of them to look at them as dust.

There are only eternal interests in the world, and there are no eternal allies.

Mi Huang stood in the crowd, his brows furrowed, and he always maintained a kind of staying out of the matter, looking at everything coldly.

Nothing more was said.

************

In the backyard of Ruoao's big house, Xiao Jiang, who heard the news from the Zhou family in front of him, rushed into the marriage room in a panic and cried, "Miss, it's not good...... Cheng Gongzi and the concubine, the princess just rushed into Ruoao's mansion with Huang Yuwei and arrested the master, our Zhou family was sentenced to be beheaded, and we will be executed tomorrow!"

"What?"

Zhou Jinghua lifted the veil and asked.

"Say it again! I don't believe it!"

Zhou Jinghua was wearing a red wedding dress, and her hands were tightly grasping Xiao Jiang's shoulders.

"Miss, Miss...... I said that the master and they were arrested by Cheng Gongzi on the charge of embezzlement and disaster relief in the treasury of the king of ink...... The old man passed away on the spot......"

Xiao Jiang was tightly clasped by Zhou Jinghua's slender jade hand, with tears in his eyes, and replied tremblingly.

"Why did he do this...... Why ......"

"I don't believe it!"

Zhou Jinghua's eyes were stunned, and she repeated a sentence repeatedly.

Then before the bride had time to react, she suddenly carried the red skirt, pushed open the door of the wedding room and rushed out, pushing down the maids in the cloister all the way, and the female guests and guards who greeted her stumbled into the square in front of Chu Zhongtang.

At this time, most of the people had left, only the Zhou family was gathered together, and some young ladies who were bold enough to pay attention to the development of the world were standing around and did not all leave.

"What are you doing?"

Zhao Ming looked at Zhou Jinghua who suddenly appeared in surprise, frowned and asked.

Even Ye Xiangru looked at her in embarrassment, "At this time, you still don't want to go in!"

They didn't expect that Ruo Ao Ziyan and Cheng Jia would join forces this time and actually target the Zhou family.

All were taken aback.

All the noble girls who were envious before looked at Zhou Jinghua with a kind of pity and ridicule in their eyes, "I'll just say that there is no such cheap thing in the world, eighty percent is that Zhou Mu knows that he has committed a big crime, and wants to use money to trap Ruo Ao's family and save his life!"

The women smiled and looked at the woman who was standing on Chu Zhongtang in a big red wedding dress with messy hair, how could she still be half graceful and luxurious just now.

"It seems that someone's blessing is still not enough!"

"I can't be the first lady of Ruo Ao's anymore!"

"None of you are allowed to stop me today!"

Zhou Jinghua looked at Zhao Xiaohou Ye Xiangru and them with gloomy eyes, the nobles in the hall who looked at the excitement with a mocking smile, and her brothers and sisters in the hall, her father and mother, and even the aunts who used to be the most hated, are now shackled one by one and have become prisoners.

Then wave their hands away.

looked straight at Cheng Jia, who was ordering someone to arrest the Zhou family in the hall, and pointed with his jade hand, "I want to ask him for clarification!"
