(Cat flutter Chinese) "If you don't know, don't disturb, just step aside, Yunxiao, you talk about it carefully. (Fengwu Literature Network)"

"The women of the people obey." Yun Xiaofu broke out a big case that shocked the government and the opposition: the emperor, the people's daughter reported that Wei Yaozu and his subordinate officials embezzled 8 million taels of national silver for disaster relief, and collected countless amounts of people's wealth. ”

"Ah, eight million taels?!"

As soon as Yun Xiao's words came out, not only the emperor was surprised, but the ministers all gasped, but such a major corruption case was exposed from the mouth of a little woman, is this true?

"Xiao'er..."Xuanyuan Rui was shocked when he heard this big case, and he broke out in a cold sweat.

Yun Xiao glanced at Xuanyuan Rui secretly, a sneer was imperceptibly hooked at the corner of her mouth, she turned her eyes to look at the emperor, and asked with a serious face, "Your Majesty, the Yellow River is seriously flooded this year, has the imperial court allocated three million taels of silver to build an embankment to prevent disasters and relieve the victims?" ”

"Well, the flooding of the Yellow River has displaced tens of millions of people, and I have allocated three million taels of silver to the households, which is the silver taels allocated for the construction of the river embankment and the relief of the people." The emperor nodded yes.

Yun Xiao's momentum is still unabated, "After the flood, the heat plague spread widely in the Yellow River area, and the imperial court has allocated two million taels of silver to relieve the disaster and eliminate the epidemic?" ”

"I have allocated the money from the treasury to the household department for disaster relief."

"The south is suffering from a drought that has not been seen in a century, and the imperial court has allocated three million taels of silver to help the victims?" Yun Xiao's inquiring tone became more and more urgent.

"Dial." The emperor also raised his voice to answer Yun Xiao's inquiry, and a wave of anger rose in his heart.

"The 80,000 taels of disaster relief silver did not save the people from suffering, Wei Yaozu and local officials deceived the court, greedy for the eight million taels of silver, a few days ago, the folk girl happened to meet a thief, bought a few letters from him, these letters turned out to be Wei Yaozu and his subordinates unevenly divided the spoils of each other for the accusation of scolding, the folk girl was shocked, followed the clues of these secret letters, found out Wei Yaozu's major crime of embezzlement of the national bank."

Yun Xiao has been looking for an opportunity to escape from Xiangwang's Mansion, so she hid these letters on her body, fortunately when Wen Xuan stunned her, she only changed her coat, otherwise she would lose this excellent opportunity to sue. Yun Xiao took out the relevant letter and presented it with both hands, and Father-in-law Wan came over to take the letter and handed it to the emperor.

Xuanyuan Guang read the letter, and fell on the dragon case in annoyance, his phoenix eyes sank, and he drank coldly, "Wei Yaozu! ”

"Minister, minister, minister deserve to die." When Wei Yaozu saw that the matter was revealed, his legs trembled with fright, and he knelt on the ground like a garlic emperor, "The old minister has made remarkable achievements in managing the river embankment, this is a fact that is obvious to all." ”

Yun Xiao sneered and revealed: "Your Majesty, although Wei Yaozu's embankment is built strongly, but all the silver used to repair the embankment is collected from the people, and they forced officials at all levels to increase taxes, and mobilized the people of various states and counties and the wealthy gentlemen to donate silver to the disaster area in the name of disaster relief. ”

"Wei Yaozu, what Yun Xiao said is true? If there is any falsehood, you will refute it with proof. Xuanyuan Guang glared at Wei Yaozu and asked angrily.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your ......" Wei Yaozu knelt on the ground, and a big drop of cold sweat dripped down his forehead. After reading those letters, the emperor will definitely investigate the case thoroughly, and the paper cannot contain the fire, and it is difficult to hide the corruption.

"Wei Yaozu, you are really bold, you have embezzled a huge amount of national bank in one year. will, put Wei Yaozu in the prison, raid the house and file a case, and destroy the nine clans. ”

"Your Majesty, for the sake of the minister's meritorious work in managing the river embankment, spare the minister. The emperor, the emperor, the emperor forgives the sin. Wei Yaozu was dragged away by the Imperial Forest Army.

"Zhao'er, have you checked?" The emperor turned his eyes to Xuanyuan Rui and asked in a deep voice.

"Erchen and Xiao'er ......" Xuanyuan Rui glanced at Yun Xiao, hoping that she could lend a helping hand and save some passive situations for him, however, Yun Xiao threw him away coldly and pushed him into the abyss.

"Your Majesty, the people's daughter investigated the case on her own, and King Zhao did not participate in the investigation."

"The son's supervision is unfavorable, please punish my father." Xuanyuan Rui's heart was torn. Xiao'er, you are so ruthless that you have to kill this king?!

Xuanyuan Rui once inspected the Yellow River embankment, and the officials under the household department did their best to rest the embankment, and the embankment was reinforced very strongly, and the achievements were indeed remarkable, however, the strong embankment strictly covered the crimes of Wei Yaozu and his ministers who were corrupt and perverted the law, and also covered the clarity of Xuanyuan Rui's eyes.

"You are in a heavy position, and you have dereliction of duty and did not investigate such a big case in the household department, so you govern the country like this?" The emperor's face was dark, his fingers pointed at Xuanyuan Rui angrily, and a wave of anger surged into his heart, arousing Xuanyuanguang's coughing and wheezing, so that he almost lost his breath, and Gonggong Wan hurriedly stepped forward to serve the emperor.

"Ahem...... cough cough ...... "The emperor coughed sharply, his face turned purple, and the ministers were shocked, all worried that the emperor would go west, and the emperor's body would reach such a weak state.

"Father's anger is at ease." Xuanyuan Wei and Xuanyuan Mo paid worried attention to their father.

Xuanyuan Guang finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the whole person leaned weakly on the dragon chair, his back was no longer able to straighten up, even though he was still concerned about state affairs, "Zhao'er, what are you busy with, ...... Ahem...... You've disappointed me so much. ”

"Father..."Xuanyuan Rui was terrified, and promised, "Father is angry, Situ Feng went to the south to investigate the case and has not returned, presumably a corruption case has been found, Erchen personally investigated the case thoroughly, recovered the embezzled national silver as soon as possible, and gave an explanation to his father and the people." ”

"Ahem...... How can I trust you again? The emperor coughed fiercely, and the body of the wind candle in his last years sat on the dragon throne and looked thinner and thinner.

After coughing and wheezing, the emperor raised his head and glared at Xuanyuan Rui, using this reason to weaken the prestige of the third prince, "Zhao'er, I am not worried about your position as a prisoner, and I will remove you from the post of prisoner." ”

"Father, the father forgives the son for his mistakes, please give the son a chance to make amends, father!" Xuanyuan Rui was heartbroken when he heard this, and knelt on the ground and kowtowed. He boasted that he had always been calm and scheming, and he had worked hard for many years to win the country, however, Wei Yaozu's greed for the world knocked down the laurel crown that had fallen on his head

His father ruthlessly removed him from the right to supervise the country, and his father's cold eyes glared at him with anger, making him embarrassed, unable to raise his head in humiliation, and wishing that there was a crack in the ground for him to fall into.

What a great shame!

Yun Xiao glanced at Xuanyuan Rui on the side, a touch of happiness flashed across her lips, and Xuanyuan Rui caught her instant pleasure and suddenly felt like a knife.

If Yun Xiao revealed some information about this earth-shattering case in advance, he would personally recover the stolen silver, save the passive situation, and keep his right to supervise the country, but she just fell into the well at this critical moment and announced this epic case to the public, which was clearly intended to kill him and push him into the abyss, and there would be no return!
