Eunuch Xi brought a big golden basin.
Place it on the table in the middle.
The two adults looked as if they had seen a ghost.
Such a big golden basin...
These ten princesses are indeed the emperor's favorites.
[Ha! Scum dad, you brought my big golden basin here]
The big tyrant coughed lightly and said, "Abao, don't worry, watch daddy fill this big golden basin for you. After all, this is the treasure basin that daddy gives you!"
Gotta live up to its name!
"This is the Tenth Princess's treasure bowl. Put the gifts you brought in there."
Lord Zong originally thought that giving a piece of gold leaf was both sincere and nice, but when the gold leaf was put into the big golden basin, it seemed that his action was particularly greedy.
If I had known this earlier, I would have given the Tenth Princess a few more gold leaves.
"Lord Lin, have you also prepared a gift for the Tenth Princess?" asked the tyrant.
Lord Lin frowned and lowered his head, "I have prepared a night-shining pearl for the Tenth Princess."
The tyrant was quite surprised, as things like night-shining pearls were extremely rare even in the imperial palace.
"My best friend once traveled to the East China Sea and gave me a night-shining pearl. I really don't have anything else, so I..."
[Night-shining pearls are good. When I grow up, I can exchange them for gold at a pawnshop.]
[Scumbag dad, although Lord Lin and Lord Zong are both the Minister and Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, and are fourth-rank officials, Lord Lin's family is really poor, and you can say he is incorruptible.]
[He was able to take out the Night Pearl, which was enough to show that his heart was as bright as the moon and full of sincerity]
[But this Lord Lin will die tonight. ]
[You will receive a secret letter reporting on Lord Lin in a moment, and then you will chop him off]
[Although Lord Lin has a straightforward personality, he is well-educated and good at commanding and fighting. He is a rare military talent! ]
[What a pity! Our Tiansheng Dynasty is about to lose a loyal minister.]
The great tyrant suppressed his shock and looked at Lin Xuanzhi, "My dear Lin, you don't have to be polite. Gifts are a token of your thoughts. Even if you don't give me anything, I won't fight for it. Please take your seat first.
Today, there are only three of us, the king and his subjects, and you can speak freely about anything you want to say."
Lord Lin Xuanzhi was somewhat overwhelmed by the favor.
In the past, the emperor always spoke to him in a flattering manner.
On the contrary, I think highly of Lord Zong.
The Emperor also accepted many of Lord Zong's opinions.
Why does it feel like the emperor seems to be much gentler towards him today?
cough.
After the two adults sat down, Lin Xuanzhi had no intention of picking up his chopsticks. "Your Majesty."
Lin Xuanzhi stood up and saluted the great tyrant, "Your Majesty, the plague in Lingnan is imminent. I request your permission to go to Lingnan——"
Lord Zong also saw the opportunity and stood up to ask for permission, "Your Majesty, I also ask for permission to go south. Although the epidemic area is full of dangers, the people have already rioted. I am willing to go to the front line to quell the riots."
"Your Majesty." Eunuch Xi stepped forward and presented a secret letter.
【Here it comes! 】
[Master Lin, your head is no longer safe]
The great tyrant unfolded the secret letter with a sullen face.
Lord Zong slowly lowered his head, waiting for the tyrant to fly into a rage.
Of course he was the one who arranged the secret letter.
The content in there is naturally also for the purpose of getting rid of Lin Xuanzhi.
In the Ministry of Personnel, he is the boss!
This Lin Xuanzhi is causing too much trouble in the Ministry of Personnel.
"How can this be possible!" The tyrant's face darkened and he slammed the secret letter on the table, with suppressed anger in his eyes.
[Scumbag dad, don't get angry yet. You must keep your mind clear and don't kill Lin Xuanzhi.]
【Lin Xuanzhi is a loyal official, and the one with the surname Zong is the corrupt official.】
The tyrant snorted coldly, it was all thanks to Abao.
"Master Lin, do you know what is written in this secret letter?"
Lin Xuanzhi looked bewildered, "I don't know."
"Seventy percent of the money the court transferred to Lingnan actually flowed into your pocket, Lin Xuanzhi."
Lin Xuanzhi was shocked and knelt down immediately, "Your Majesty, I am innocent. This matter..."
The great tyrant looked stern, but his tone was much softer. "Of course I don't believe this."
Lord Zong who is feeling extremely proud:?
What?
The Emperor said he didn’t believe it—
No way?
Lin Xuanzhi, who was kneeling on the ground in fear, suddenly raised his head, "Your Majesty..."
"You stand up first." The tyrant calmed down. "How could I execute Lord Lin just because of a secret letter? That would make me look foolish and arbitrary."
[Bad dad, you're smart now]
[I also know that I am stupid and arbitrary]
[It's rare that you reflected on yourself 666]
ah?
Lin Xuanzhi's heart was in turmoil.
"I have another secret letter here." The tyrant took out the second secret letter.
Lin Xuanzhi and Lord Zong were both very confused.
Especially Lord Zong.
Not true.
Things shouldn't have turned out this way.
He asked someone to prepare a secret letter, how come two appeared?
"Lord Zong." The great tyrant's eyes fell on Lord Zong.
Lord Zong: ...Suddenly you have a premonition that a disaster is about to happen?
"This secret letter impeached the flow of funds from the epidemic area into the clan's mansion, and listed the evidence one by one."
Lord Zong was so scared that he almost peed his pants. Any evidence?
Could it be that I didn't do things cleanly before and left a small tail?
[Scumbag dad, all the stolen money was hidden by Master Zong in the cellar in the yard of the No. 3 pharmacy under the name of his legal wife.]
[Over the years, all the benefits that Master Zong had gained were hidden under the guise of the pharmacy]
[It's called a pharmacy, but it's actually a place to cheat people]
"Your Majesty is very insightful..." Lord Zong's eyes turned red, and he became dramatic and prepared to cry.
The tyrant didn't buy his tricks at all and interrupted him directly, "Come here! Go to the cellar in the yard of the No. 3 pharmacy under the clan's name and dig for me! You must dig out all the stolen money for me!"
sky!
Lord Zong was so shocked that his eyes almost popped out of his head.
The Emperor... the Emperor actually knew where he hid his money? ?
The Imperial Guards worked very quickly.
A reply came back after a while.
"Your Majesty, the things have been dug out by Lord Xu and his men, and I have sent a subordinate to inform Your Majesty."
Thanks to Abao, otherwise he would have really become a tyrant who favors villains and alienates wise ministers.
"No, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I am innocent, Your Majesty—"
The great tyrant was furious, and threw the teacup on the table directly at Lord Zong who was kneeling below, "Unfair? Do you think I am blind and deaf? If you are wronged, then I am a tyrant!
Also, I have found out that you were the one who sent people to send this first secret letter. Do you still want to frame Lin Xuanzhi?
Come here! Immediately seal off the Zongfu from today, exile all the men in the Zongfu, and send the women to Ninggu Pagoda as slaves!
As for you, Lord Zong, you may be spared the punishment of living, but you cannot escape the death penalty.
Tomorrow at noon, he will be beheaded and displayed in public at the market!"
Lord Zong was so frightened that he fainted.
【Get first blood! Scum dad, 666】
[Bad father, tyrant character remains intact! Traitors must be killed]
[Bad dad, please turn on your super god mode! ]
The big tyrant's mouth twitched. How come the little girl has so many strange words in her mind?
