Chapter 140: Shady

Yu Yu simply told the story of the encirclement and suppression of the three thieves' nests, but the last sentence made several people silent. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info five days off for five hours, and you don't have to think much about it to know how these people have spent these days.

Li Xinrui got up and said, "Young Master Yu, we won't bother, you have a good rest!"

Yu Yu said, "I have already said, the things I brought back, everyone can choose the same, if you are interested, you can choose anything, of course, you are not short of good things!"

"If I don't take it, I'll have to hand it over to the treasury!" Yu Yu added.

Chi Weihua and Zuo Xiaoyong squeezed their eyebrows, Fu Linghua and Li Xinrui glanced at each other and said, "Yu Yu, don't you know that those ministers in the court have a lot of opinions on your 'private' division of property?

"How can you not know, let them participate. I should take yours, there will be no such shop in this village!" Yu Yu said.

In the end, Zuo Xiaoyong and Chi Weihua chose a very good inner armor. Chi Weihua took the inner armor in his hand and said, "If you want to participate, let them participate with me."

Yu Yu sent a few people away with a smile, and immediately rushed home in a hurry.

As soon as he got home, Lu Bin stepped forward and said, "The New Year is coming, and the people from the Ministry of Industry have come several times, saying that they are going to move to 'handover' the Hou Ye's Mansion, you see?"

"Move now, you guys start acting, if there are not enough people, you go to the Praetorian Guard to call people, I want to sleep first!" Doudou had already brought hot water, Yu Yu burned his feet, washed his face and fell asleep.

At noon the next day, Yu Yu got up from the 'bed', finished washing, and came out to see that the house was empty and everything had been moved.

While eating, Doudou said, "Young master, what about the teahouse, and how many months of rent are left?"

Yu Yu thought for a while and said, "The teahouse is put away first, there are still a lot of things in it, and I can't move it away for a while." I'll wait until I'll find a suitable shop. ”

Xiao Baiyu pouted, "I still open your teahouse, I really don't know what you're thinking, you can make money by selling tea, I think it's a loss of money!"

"You know, it's called production creating demand. If I open a teahouse in a prosperous area, it will naturally be different, you look at it, I have counted it in my heart!

Doudou nodded, "I've put it away!"

"By the way, Doudou, have you seen the Hou Ye Mansion, how is it?" Yu Yu remembered about the house and asked Doudou.

Doudou shook his head, "I haven't seen it yet!"

While he was talking, Yang Hong came in from outside, "My Hou Ye, you are back, Your Majesty is waiting for you!" Yu Yu was stunned for a moment, and then smiled and said, "I'll go with you!"

"Nothing will happen, will it?" said the little white fish with a frown. Doudou was also a little nervous, after all, Yu Yu made a bit of a fuss this time, and he took so many Praetorian Guards out, this was the first time since the founding of Yan Guo.

"Don't worry," Yu Yu wiped his mouth and left with Yang Hong.

In the imperial study, the emperor and Xi Jian, Sanfa, and King Weinan were talking. The emperor asked, "Yang Hong, how is the investigation in the inner court, I don't believe it, there is no clue at all!"

The emperor was naturally referring to the assassination of Yu Yu. Yang Hong whispered on the side, "Back to Your Majesty, there is news from the inner court that those people may be from other places, not like people from or around the Holy City. There was also news from Zhan Batian's side that it was not from Nancheng. ”

"Outsiders?" the emperor waved his hand, "You go down, you go to the Marquis of Zhongyi later, and let him come for a trip!" Yang Hong retreated, the emperor looked at the high chapter on the bookcase, and said with a wry smile, "This Yu Yu can really find trouble for me, in such a short time, he actually let so many ministers in the court participate in him!"

"The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will blow it. As soon as this little guy took office, he managed the Praetorian Guard in an orderly manner, and his combat power increased so quickly in a short period of time, many people were a little jealous. Sanfa said with a smile.

"This time, he went to Mouse Mountain, Zipeng Mountain, and the encirclement and suppression of water bandits, which may have a greater impact!"

"What's more, he stabbed the hornet's nest" The emperor shook his head, "Those water bandits have long heard of it, and they have been operating for several generations, so he killed them all overnight, and this Yu Yu did things, which is really amazing." ”

"This kid's methods are even more incredible, I heard that he killed a lot of family members, and those water bandits were 'forced' by him to cry in the sky, but there was no way at all!"

"What surprised me the most was the battle he had with Hibiki Ma, and I heard that he had invented a powerful crossbow that could fire twelve times in a row, five thousand Hibiki horses, and he had to kill them cleanly. It's appalling, and it's less than a hundred people lost. It's hard to imagine such a battle!" said King Wei Nan with emotion.

"I heard that he brought back a lot of gold and silver treasures?" said the emperor.

King Weinan nodded, "Xinrui has been there, I heard her say that it is about 20 million taels of silver!" Xi Jian and the others' faces changed, and they looked at each other, "Why are those robbers so rich?"

"This is also incomprehensible!" the emperor said, "If some time ago he knocked out the lair of dozens of thieves and obtained so much wealth, it would be reasonable, but this time he went out and only captured three thieves' 'dens' and obtained such treasures, how can he not make people suspicious? How can these thieves gather so much wealth? How did they do it? Although I have heard that they have accumulated for a long time, I also know that the expenses of the thieves are also very large, and it is not easy to accumulate wealth, how did they do it?"

"What does Your Majesty mean?" asked as if he had heard something, and frowned.

"As I said just now, Yu Yu stabbed the hornet's nest, and that's the reason. The Emperor sneered, "How dare they take me for a fool. Now it's okay, Yu Yu came forward to serve their lair, I'll see what they do. ”

"I used to hear that there were people in the court who colluded with bandits and bandits, and I didn't pay attention to it, but now that I think about it, it may be true, otherwise these bandits would not have lasted so long. After all, I, Yanguo Tieqi, am not vegetarian!" Weinan Wang said.

"How dare they be?" "Isn't this the silverfish of the country?"

Xi Jian knew relatively little about national politics, and when he heard these things for the first time, he couldn't help but be surprised.

The emperor shook his head, "Yan is strict in law, and the ministers dare not blatantly greed for ink, so they use the power in their hands to seek 'personal gain', there are many similar situations, I actually know it." Not only is it a holy city, but the feudal officials who are released from outside the country are even more serious. It's just that although they are like this, they have no impact on the foundation of our Yan Kingdom, so our Yan Imperial Court has always had a certain tolerance towards this. First, it is not easy to fight, and second, it is impossible to finish. That's why it's always been there."

"Now that Yu Yu has almost cut off the financial routes of the court ministers, they will naturally unite to fight against him. King Weinan shook his head.

"I can't help it, I know that Yu Yu's approach is right, but I can't be too oriented to him, after all, the handling of major affairs in the DPRK and China still depends on those ministers. Yu Yu is here later, let's listen to what that kid has to say first!" the emperor said helplessly.

When he came to the imperial study, Yu Yu saw the emperor Xijian and others, the emperor gave him a seat, Yu Yu sat down and said, "Long live me to come here, what are your orders?"

"Orders?" the emperor smiled angrily, "You swaggered out with three thousand Janissaries to fight bandits, and each soldier was rewarded with 500 taels of silver in 'private', this happened just yesterday, and today there are so many more twists and turns to participate in you, you can see for yourself" As he spoke, the emperor pointed to the two stacks of music on the dragon bookcase, both of which were nearly one meter high.

Yu Yu said with a smile, "I also heard that the ministers are going to check on me, so let's check, I went with the Praetorian Guard to fight the bandits, but this did not violate the Yan law, the Praetorian Guard has not done this before, it does not mean that this thing cannot be done." Besides, it's normal to march and fight and reward the three armies, I rewarded the army, but I didn't ask those old men in the household department for a penny, and I gave them back the money!"

"Haha" The emperor laughed, and even the three laws were amused by Yu Yu, and the emperor said, "You have provoked the anger of the people." Do you know why?"

"It's not that the interests are colluded," Yu Yu said, "Those bandits, they alone can hold out for so long?" Let's just say that the water bandits on the Wangjiang River, they have existed for more than a hundred years. I've been checking on them for a long time, and they dare to openly collect protection fees on the water, and passing ships have to pay tolls, and they collect them for decades, why? Also, they don't attack the small merchants and peddlers, but when they go out, the fleets of those big merchants are amazing, and every time they get amazing results, how can they be so well-informed? The only explanation is that they have someone in the court!"

Yu Yu did not shy away from it, and directly broke it!

"And the ringing horse. The level of arrogance they have on the ground is simply unbelievable. These people dare to take more than 1,000 people to loot those big merchants, except for the holy city, they dare not come, and they do not patronize the surrounding prefectures and counties, why are they so arrogant but no one cares?

Although I have no evidence, I am sure that most of the money they have obtained will be sent to the important ministers of the court. However, since the property of those ministers was monitored by the imperial court, they did not dare to publicize it too much, and most of the money was deposited with the bandits. That's cheaper for me!"

After speaking, Yu Yu smiled!

The emperor said nothing to Yu Yu's directness, and he didn't feel embarrassed because he broke through the dark side of the court, King Weinan said, "Zhongyi Hou, you still have to deal with this matter properly, after all, everyone is full of gold, and you have to understand this truth!"

Yu Yu understood what he meant, in fact, he wanted to say that he couldn't embarrass the emperor.

Yu Yu nodded, "I understand." I think after this festival, they will start to check me, so let's check, the accounts of my Praetorian Guard, but they are all clear accounts. However, I also want to remind them that not everyone can check the accounts of the Praetorian Guard!"

The Emperor nodded, looking very satisfied, "That's how the Praetorian Guard should be. If Luo Yaocheng had had your enlightenment, there would not have been today's results! I asked you to come here today mainly to say two things, one is how you are prepared to explain to the ministers; the second thing is that the gold and silver you have obtained from going out to attack the bandits in the past five days do not need to be handed over to the state treasury, you can keep it yourself, no matter how poor the country is, it cannot let you 'hand' over all the silver you have worked so hard to get and move it to the treasury.

Yu Yu was stunned, "That's 20 million taels of silver, Your Majesty, isn't this a small amount?"

"Forget it, you can 'spend' as you like, don't you want to improve the armament of the Praetorian Guard, how can you do it if you don't have money, I am very relieved of you here, you just need to think about how to explain it to the ministers!" the emperor said.
