Chapter 773: Brother Nine is not a hero
Chapter 773: Brother Nine is not a hero
Although Li Muran has his own ideas, he still hopes to get Yu Bai's support, after all, Yu Bai knows more about the emperor than himself.
And with Yu Bai's support, then his own ideas are estimated to be better!
Li Muran clearly explained to Yu Bai what he had encountered with Wang Yu today, of course, he was beaten for no reason, and then mentioned Wang Yu's bribery to himself, but this amount was not detailed.
Yu Bai listened to his words, his brows furrowed slightly.
"Master Li, that Wang Yu is not an ordinary family, you must already know it!
Even if he was beaten, at most it would only make Wang Yu suffer some punishment, after all, Lord Li was standing here safe and sound, wasn't he? ”
"Father-in-law Yu, I naturally know this information, but I'm curious, why is everyone so afraid of this Wang family, just because they are an old family?"
Listening to Li Muran's inquiry, Yu Bai smiled slightly, then shook his head and said
"There are so many old families, but there are a few really like the Wang family, this Wang family was not visible when the family was in the middle of the family, but when the saint ascended the throne today, he was on the right team, do you understand?"
The royal battle cannot say whether it is right or wrong, it is nothing more than the winner writing history, and the Wang family must have made a lot of efforts when the emperor seized the throne today, so it was able to develop and grow, and became the first family of the Han Dynasty.
The children of the disciples are all over the Han Dynasty.
"I understand, but I want to make a big use of this bribe of silver" After speaking, after whispering a few words to Yu Bai, the latter's eyes gradually lit up.
"Li Gongzi, high, really high!
The emperor is still in the imperial study and has not rested, and I will take you to the side hall to wait! ”
As he spoke, he took Li Muran to a courtyard.
"Master Li, you just wait like this, I'll come when I go!"
After that, turn around and leave!
After Li Muran heard this, he looked at the disappearing back, turned around and entered the door of the courtyard.
The room was very tidy, there were no luxuries or other things, and he sat down bored and waited quietly.
Suddenly, I saw a calligraphy and painting in the corner of the wall, and I couldn't help but stand up.
In the middle of the cliff, a woman dressed in white looks like a fairy, and next to this fairy is a man, the man seems to be lifeless, and the woman looks very sad.
After Li Muran saw the picture scroll in front of him, he was dumbfounded on the spot.
Isn't this the scene when he was kidnapped and fell off the cliff with Liu Yan when he was in Luzhou City?
He was stunned.
"The emperor has arrived!"
Just as he was stunned, a shout suddenly came from outside the door, and then the lights outside the door were bright.
As the door opened, I saw an old man in a yellow robe walking in, and Yu Bai was following him!
"Li Jiu, come to look for me late at night, if you can't tell why, don't blame me for curing your crimes!"
Before the old emperor began to speak, the rules were set first, and after he listened, he finished his salute and said to the old emperor
"Your Majesty, you also know that I, Li Jiu, am a lazy person. I won't come to you until I have to, after all, it's too much trouble in the middle of the night, isn't it! ”
When the old emperor heard this, his face immediately changed and he said
"What you, mine, there are only me and Li Jiu here!"
Li Muran smiled when he heard it
"Your Majesty, if you come to talk to me today as a monarch and minister, I don't think you will get anything, but if you are a friend, we will have a good relationship!"
"Bold!" Yu Bai, who was on the side, hurriedly scolded after hearing this, but the old emperor didn't seem to buy it
"Okay, what a Li Jiu who is not afraid of heaven and earth, I am very curious, what can you dare to do with me today!"
Seeing Li Muran talking to the emperor like this, the look on Yu Bai's face was tight, and he secretly said in his heart: Lord Li, Lord Li, do you know that what is in front of you is a tiger!
"Your Majesty, do you remember the task given to me?"
When the old emperor heard this, his face suddenly changed, and then he glanced at Yu Bai, who had followed the old emperor for not a day or two, so he naturally understood what he meant, and let all the guards and eunuchs withdraw.
After there were only three people left in the room, Li Muran suddenly saluted
"Your Majesty, the minister is guilty, the minister accepted a bribe today!"
"Bribes?" When the emperor heard this, he was immediately stunned, he thought that Li Muran was going to talk about the family, but he didn't expect that he would come to ask for guilt!
Therefore, he said with a stunned face
"Taking bribes? Who's been bribed, tell me quickly! ”
"The minister received a bribe from Wang Yu, the squire of the Ministry of War, today, a total of two million taels!"
"What?" When the old emperor heard this, his face immediately turned black, but he sent here to check these families, but he didn't expect that the family hadn't found out the reason, but he first accepted bribes from others!
"Li Jiu, are you here to talk to me about this today? Do you know how many guards there are outside the door right now, and if I give you an order, your head will fall to the ground in no time! ”
Listening to the old emperor's words, Li Muran's expression was a little nervous and uneasy, but he smiled
"Your Majesty, I have received two million taels of silver, can I temporarily relieve the drought in the north?"
Li Muran's sudden words made the old emperor react a little, but he couldn't speak
"What do you mean by this, do you want to donate those two million taels?"
Seeing that the old emperor said this, he said with a righteous face
"Born as a Han, I am insignificant, but born as a Han, I know my integrity, today these two million taels are my acceptance, yes as an official I took bribes, but I hope that my bribes are only borne by me, and the million taels of life-saving money can be transported to the north as soon as possible.
The world is the world of the people, the Han people should think about the Han people, I, Li Jiu, am not a hero, but I will definitely not do anything bear.
Your Majesty, two million taels are already at the gate of the palace, and you can take them at any time as long as you want, but I hope you can use these silver on the edge of your knife to make the people suffer less.
Today, even if you let the guards outside the door hack me to death, Li Jiu and I will be blinded to death! ”
After Li Muran finished speaking, his hands were burdened, and his face was full of generosity.
The old emperor didn't expect him to suddenly say such a thing, and the majesty just now was instantly gone.
"Li Jiu, if all the officials in the world are like you, then I will be much easier!"
Looking at the old emperor's emotional expression, Li Muran smiled slightly, he was retreating as advancing, and it seemed that the effect was not bad.
Yu Bai, who was on the side at this moment, asked respectfully when he saw this
"Your Majesty, then how to punish here"
