Chapter 486 Your father, I'm back!

Thunder was rumbling outside.

His eyebrows were bright, his long eyelashes cast a butterfly-wing-like shadow under the lamp, his knuckles were distinct, his wrist bones were like snow, and it was pleasing to the eye to do these things.

Yu Tingwan held an empty jade cup, sat in front of him, and waited to drink.

"Everyone else is old, but you are young and strong."

Wei Zhao raised his eyebrows, and the corners of his lips slightly raised.

"I don't care about being young."

"I admit that you are strong."

Just a few words, you are involved in pornography, right?

How dare you say that Qing Ya is obscene.

Yu Tingwan glared at him.

"Let's talk about serious matters."

"The person in the palace called everyone together. Except for the official Zhu Wei who I have never heard of, the officials who went were clearly arranged by the Taifu. It can be seen that the dog emperor has a plan in mind, but he insisted that the Taifu go to say it. What is his intention?"

She was at a loss: "Do you just want to see the Taifu scold people?"

Wei Zhao was amused by her.

His shoulders trembled slightly, and he laughed muffledly.

"He is indeed mentally ill, but not to the point of   being sick ."

After boiling three times, the fragrance of tea filled the air, and he poured the tea into the empty cup in the girl's hand. Wei Zhao said in a gentle voice: "Although the power of the emperor is supreme, he has always been superficially friendly to officials, and he would not do anything that would offend   people." "During Yang Changzheng's reign, building dams and ditches was not a small project. It involved a wide range of things, and it was not something he could do alone. He put a lot of money from me into his pocket. I'm afraid someone from the Ministry of Revenue helped to cook the accounts."   "The Ministry of Works must be involved in the tofu project." "   Before construction began, the Ministry of Rites had to offer sacrifices to the river god."   It can be said that all six ministries were involved to some extent.   "Even if those ministers were clean and could sit in that position, how could they not see that Yang Changzheng was profiting from it? There was a suspicion of shielding him."   Emperor Ying Qian knew everything from beginning to end.   But who dared to question him?   Wei Zhao: "The dog emperor hates Yang Changzheng to the bone, but he has no way out after imprisoning him. The six ministries are considered Yang Changzheng's territory. He is very vigilant, how can he be at ease? He has long wanted to rectify and establish his authority, but has always suffered from no chance."   The matter of the dikes and ditches has been mentioned in the past few days, and the people have complained. At this time, Yang Changzheng's corruption case will be brought up for retrial, and the officials involved will never be let go. The people don't understand twists and turns, they just think that the emperor is a wise monarch and has given enough explanations.   But according to Emperor Ying Qian's style, the six ministries will not be completely uprooted.   It involves a wide range of things, and Gu Fuju will inevitably be excluded by the court.   It's already this juncture.   Without thinking about the people who suffered from the flood, Emperor Ying Qian is still killing three birds with one stone.   I'm afraid the blood in my bones is cold.   Yu Tingwan was thoughtful.   "Yes, Yang Changzheng is in prison, and the court officials have become mute one by one. No one speaks up to strictly investigate the six ministries and rectify the court."   But soon: "Where is He Xuran?"   Isn't he an imperial censor who enforces the law impartially?   Wei Zhao: "It's obvious that the dog emperor and others will mention it, so he won't be stupid enough to be an executioner."   Gu Fuju obviously didn't want to do it.   But since he entered the palace, the eunuch deliberately mentioned Zhu Wei, which was obviously the intention of Emperor Ying Qian.   Wei Zhao: "Yang Changzheng is a useless chess piece. The disaster area is enough to make the court anxious. Someone must take over the rectification of the six ministries. Emperor Ying Qian promoted someone."   Counting it, it's killing four birds with one stone.   Yu Tingwan:... "That's embarrassing for the master."   "Not really."   "Bao Pu sent a message saying that the master scolded very comfortably."   Yu Tingwan:...   "The dog emperor has calculated everything, but he also missed one."   Yu Tingwan: "What?"   Wei Zhao smiled: "Zhu Wei... is he really still working for him?"   Exciting.   Yu Tingwan was excited.   "Your people?"   Wei Zhao shook his head.   Yu Tingwan was still excited.   "The Grand Tutor's people."   Wei Zhao shook his head.   She continued to guess.   "Xiao Huaiyan or Ying Fuyan's?"   Anyway, these are all his people.   Wei Zhao continued to shake his head.   "Ga!"   A bird called from outside.   It was a blue crow that was thrown out of the house by Ying Fuyan and then rushed back to the Shunguo Mansion.

It was raining outside.

Fu Meng had taken shelter in the house.

But the blue crow was very excited.

It finally came back to live!

It rushed into Fu Meng's house.

Fu Meng was sleeping on his stomach, and the blue crow came close to his tiger's ears and shouted loudly.

"Little bastard!"

Fu Meng:? ?

Before he opened his eyes, he heard the loud cry of this ignorant crow.

"Your father, I'm back!"

Wei Zhao suddenly had a headache.

But he felt that the blue crow should not be able to be stuffed back to Ying Fuyan.

Yu Tingwan couldn't help laughing, but didn't forget the business.

"Why are you shaking your head? Why don't you say it?"

Wei Zhao said listlessly, and then said faintly: "Zhizhi."

Before Ying Zhi's legs and feet were injured, he had secretly saved Zhu Wei's life.

Yu Tingwan almost spit out the tea in his mouth.

"Then he is quite capable."

It was a recognition from Yu Tingwan.

But the next one is smooth.

Yu Tingwan: "Did Zhizhi also sleep with Zhu Wei?"

————

For several days in a row. In teahouses and restaurants

all over Dajin,

people gathered in groups of three or four, listening to each other.

"Have you heard the news? Urgent reports from all over the country have come one after another. The emperor is so worried that he has vomited blood." "

The emperor was originally recovering from his injuries, but how can he take care of it now? I heard that he hasn't slept for several days in a row. It can be seen that he cares about the world! It is a blessing for all people."

"Yes, the court will discuss and solve the good case, open the treasury to provide disaster relief silver, not to mention sending many officials to fight the disaster."

The people are getting more and more excited.

But there is always a Wei family soldier who came from the blacksmith shop in the crowd to pour cold water.

"Really? Is there money in the treasury?"

An auntie carrying a basket told him, "You are not well-informed, young man. The six ministries have started to investigate. In the past few days, many officials have been found to have taken kickbacks. Boxes of silver have been taken out of their houses and all used as disaster relief food."

The people around agreed and sighed again.

"With such a court, why should we worry about not having a good life?"

Wei Jiajun, dressed in coarse cloth, said, "Have you asked the Shunguo Mansion?"

"What...what?"

Wei Jiajun said, "Most of the money that those ministers embezzled was in the hands of General Wei. Now that it has been taken out, it should be returned to its original owner."

It seemed to make sense.

A woman retorted, "The general has always done good things, so he agreed."

The auntie said, "That's right, the refugees must be taken care of first."

She changed the subject.

"However, the court should write an IOU."

There was also endless discussion elsewhere.

"Why is the treasury always empty? We work hard every year to make money, tighten our belts to make ends meet, and still have to pay taxes and grain."

"The court also has its own difficulties, and there are many places to spend money. Not to mention other things, the cost of the imperial examination is a considerable expense."

The people expressed their understanding.

Every family wants to have a scholar.

I don't know who shouted.

"That's right. There are a lot of concubines and princesses in the harem who need to be supported, and their clothes, drinks and daily necessities are also a considerable expense."

"What?"

Some people were not convinced.

"This is also taken from the treasury?"

"Your Majesty uses our money to support women?"

"By this calculation, wouldn't the palaces and mausoleums also be taken from the treasury? By the way, the Yangxin Palace was burned down, and I heard that it needs to be rebuilt."

Everyone began to curse.

"Bah, I was wondering, why is the treasury always empty?"

"We don't get the benefits, but we have our share of taxes?"

"It is said that the funeral of the prince was held with great ceremony. The number of burial objects is countless."

The Wei family army echoed: "Yes! In addition to supporting women, we also have to support dead people."
