On the second day when An Jiuchen announced that he would personally go out to fight against Huailiang, the imperial study was full of opposing folds, and An Jiuchen was furious and smashed the imperial study angrily.

There was a mess in the imperial study, An Jiuchen kicked away the folds scattered on the ground, and said angrily: "A bunch of useless waste! I want to open up the territory, but they actually obstruct it in every way, they are all cowardly as rats, and they threaten me with some rumors, I really deserve to die! ”

Gonggong Huai, who was waiting beside him, hurriedly knelt down and begged him to calm his anger: "Your Majesty, you are angry, I think those adults are also worried about the emperor, after all, the Holy Lord personally drove out on the expedition, and the risk is not ordinary!" ”

An Jiuchen was angry, where could he listen, not only did he not listen, but he kicked on the body of his father-in-law, and said angrily: "Go!" Suppress all those rumors! Anyone who spreads rumors will be killed! ”

It is rumored that this locust plague is God who wants to punish them Cheng'an, if it is not for the new emperor who only cares about his own pleasure after ascending the throne and angers the heavens, how could he suddenly suffer such a disaster? In the final analysis, it is the fault of the new emperor, if they don't ask for forgiveness from God, then they will never have a good life.

Or, An Jiuchen stepped down from this position and abdicated to make way for Xian to appease the wrath of heaven.

Such rumors undoubtedly made An Jiuchen angry, and directly ordered to kill all those who spread rumors, to see if they dared to talk nonsense again.

Father-in-law Huai was so frightened that he picked up the dust whisk on the ground and climbed out with his hands and feet, until he crawled out of the imperial study for a long time, then he dared to wipe the cold sweat on his head and stood up.

Listening to the sound of ping-pong smashing things in the imperial study behind him, Father-in-law Huai had tears in his eyes, and he couldn't help but think of a sentence that the old emperor had said privately before his death.

"I want to have a group of children, I should have enjoyed the joy of family, but I didn't want to raise a white-eyed wolf for myself, and now the prince is pressing like this, I'm afraid that in the future, I ...... Alas......"

The old emperor's sigh seemed to ring in his ears, and Gonggong Huai couldn't help but be gloomy.

This is not a prophecy, when An Jiuchen was still the crown prince, he was sharp, acted quickly and ruthlessly, and even spoke to the old emperor step by step, and finally successfully usurped the throne and ascended to this supreme position.

Father-in-law Huai originally followed the old emperor to serve, but An Jiuchen was very smart when he was a child, and he was very loved by the old emperor, so the old emperor pointed him to An Jiuchen, hoping to have him by his side to serve him well, and guide An Jiuchen to grow up. Once the old emperor also really loved this son, not only did he set up An Jiuchen as the crown prince, but also gave him the best palace, but later with the exposure of An Jiuchen's ambitions, it completely chilled the old emperor's heart. Father-in-law Huai was anxious in his eyes, and often persuaded An Jiuchen to pay attention to his words and deeds, after all, people's words are terrifying, if an unfilial person ascends the throne, he will be punished by God. But how has An Jiuchen ever heard of it? Not only did he not listen, but he also intensified his efforts, until he finally forced the old emperor to die in front of him.

Looking over the high palace walls, the locusts outside wanted to rush in and wreak havoc, so you can imagine how miserable the scene outside the palace must be.

Father-in-law Huai thought sadly, although he is a eunuch, but he also has a passionate patriotic heart, although he can't lead the troops to fight and charge into battle like a general, but he also wants to follow a hard-working Ming Jun, instead of following an increasingly tyrannical faint monarch to help the abuse......

"Emperor Taishang, if you have a spirit in the sky, bless and bless us to become an country and get through the difficulties smoothly......"

Gonggong Huai knelt down in the direction of the imperial study, his expression was sad, but his eyes were calm, he kowtowed three times, and said: "Your Majesty, forgive the slaves for not being able to continue to be by your side, I hope you will come out of your obsession as soon as possible, protect the people of Cheng'an, protect well, what is the country that the Emperor Taishang exchanged for his life......"

Father-in-law Huai got up and walked without hesitation.

A quarter of an hour later, a little eunuch ran to the imperial study in a panic and cried: "Your Majesty! Oh no, he committed suicide with his father-in-law! ”

Hearing this, An Jiuchen was only stunned, and then frowned: "A minion, it's worth shouting like this?" ”

The little eunuch who came to report was kicked out of the imperial study, and he couldn't help but feel worthless for Gonggong Huai. Emperor Shanwu didn't say how to settle it, so they had to scrape together some silver to buy a thin coffin for Grandpa Huai, and buried it quietly.

Cheng'an is a mess, and Huailiang is also a chicken, flying and jumping.

The reason is that some people are blatantly grabbing business in Huailiang, not only occupying the casinos that can make the most money, but also occupying three, you know, there are only five casinos in Huailiang Imperial City. Not only occupied the casino, but also robbed the restaurant, the cloth business, and even the only two flower buildings left in the imperial city.

And the person who grabbed the business was Su Nuoer.

is still covered by General Sima Liang Yan.

For a time, there were complaints in the court, and eight out of ten ministers had to stand up and accuse Su Nuoer of "evil deeds." ”

A minister was robbed of two casinos, and he cried in the court regardless of his image, talking about Su Nuoer's evil deeds of bullying others one by one, and talking about it was a tearful story.

"Please ask the emperor to call the shots! That Su Nuo'er relied on the prestige of the general to swagger and deceive and do nonsense, and he did nothing evil. Please also ask the emperor to arrest her quickly and deal with her crimes! The minister who was robbed of the casino cried like a mourner, and his fat body, which was no different from Senior Brother Bajie, was like a wall, firmly blocking Emperor Huailiang's sight to look outside the hall.

Emperor Huailiang looked impatient, and did not speak, allowing the minister to continue to cry.

The minister cried for a long time, and when he saw that the person above didn't react, he couldn't help but look up, but only to know that people hadn't listened to him at all, and he couldn't help but want to cry even more.

I think the two casinos he worked so hard to run were cheated and abducted...... Ah no, how much effort did it take to successfully squeeze out other families to develop to such a strong point, but now he was forcibly acquired by a yellow-haired girl without any effort, so how could he not be heartbroken? That's white silver!

"Your Majesty, ......," the minister amplified his voice and wanted to cry again.

Emperor Huailiang saw someone coming from a distance, so he spoke: "Okay, I'm not deaf, you cry so loudly, I thought your backyard was on fire." ”

The minister held back stiffly, and there were tears on his oily face, looking ...... emmmm is a little unappetizing.

Seeing that the leader was defeated, the other ministers fell to their knees one after another, and cried together: "I beg the emperor to arrest Su Nuo'er, who has no king's law!" ”

When Liang Yan walked in, when she heard this, she couldn't help but snort coldly, and walked quickly towards Emperor Huailiang.

"Father, the son was ordered to investigate some things, but it was too late, and I hope that my father will forgive me." Liang Yan saluted and said with shame on her face.

Emperor Huailiang frowned, looking in a bad mood: "Get up." ”

Liang Yan got up, still ashamed, and said: "Father, the son has found out a lot of things in the past few days, and I feel unbelievable, so I asked someone to compile it into a book and specially bring it to my father and the ministers to see." ”

Emperor Huailiang nodded, "Then let's present it." ”

Liang Yan immediately clapped her hands and commanded loudly: "Someone! Bring me all the human and physical evidence! ”

For no reason, the ministers kneeling below all jumped their eyelids heavily.

Two women and five servants knelt in a row, and some others presented several thick pamphlets.

Liang Yan said: "Father, these people have grievances to say, and the ministers feel that these things have to be heard by the ministers, otherwise, some people still think that they are wronged, and they still cry in public when they are old." ”

Emperor Huailiang opened the booklet and read it, although he had known the contents of it for a long time, but he still felt that it was hot when he read it again, and after reading two copies in a row, he angrily threw the bamboo book in his hand directly, which happened to hit the minister who was crying the most.

"It's ridiculous!" Emperor Huailiang was angry and reprimanded, "Wang Yi, Wang Yi, I look at all these ridiculous things you have done over the years, but I am not sorry for your 'righteousness' at all!" ”

Wang Yi was the minister who was robbed of the casino by Su Nuo'er, and when he heard the emperor's reprimand, he couldn't help but panic, wiped the sweat on his face and said, "The minister is panicked...... Minister......"

Before he finished speaking, Emperor Huailiang snorted coldly: "You should be afraid, pick up this booklet and take a look!" ”

Wang Yi hurriedly picked up the booklet in front of him, opened it, and when he saw the first page, his face turned pale.

"Wang Yi, as a minister of Huailiang, privately runs two casinos, three restaurants, six cloth villages, the casinos are mainly abducted and cheated, and countless silver has been made in three years, roughly estimated to reach 1.6 million taels of gold. Fake wine is sold in the restaurant, and the price of the meal is as high as 100 taels of silver for a dish, and the amount of silver is roughly estimated to be 1 million taels of gold. Fake cloth is sold in the cloth village, and the ready-to-wear garments are also shoddy, and the price is as high as 200 taels of silver for a ready-to-wear garment, and the amount of silver is roughly estimated to be 2.12 million taels of gold. a total of four million two hundred and twenty thousand taels of gold. In addition, during the tenure of Lord Wang, the rare treasures that accepted bribes were not counted, and the silver bribes accepted alone amounted to more than 3 million taels. Liang Yan repeated unhurriedly, "I want to ask Lord Wang, who gave you the courage to make so much money in just three years, dare to accept bribes from such a harmful venue as a private casino?!" ”

As an official in Huailiang State, the most taboo thing is corruption and bribery.

Anyone who embezzles or accepts bribes will be beheaded and shown to the public. It doesn't matter if it's a tael of silver or a hundred thousand taels of silver.

Wang Yi was directly frightened.

This, this, this, this is impossible! He has been low-key all these years, and he can't be more low-key, even if he receives the benefits of others, he does it seamlessly, and he doesn't leave a trace afterwards, so it's impossible for someone to find out!!

No, it's important to stabilize the emperor at the moment.

Wang Yi simply fell to the ground and cried: "Wronged! Emperor! The minister is wronged! ”

A trace of disdain flashed in Liang Yan's eyes, and she cleared her throat and said, "Since Lord Wang said that he was wronged, let's talk about it?" Where did I wronged you? Did you accuse you that you didn't open the casino, or did you accuse you of embezzlement and bribery? Or did you wronged the people's daughter and robbed the people's lives?! ”
