[The Left Assistant Minister holds an important position and manages the purse strings for his father and the Great Feng Dynasty. How much trust does this have? ]
[In front of the superior officer and colleagues, he always behaves incorruptibly...]
Make… pie?
Many officials, upon hearing this word, knew that something bad was going to happen and that there was something fishy going on!
He turned around and looked sideways at Zuo Lingshan with a surprised expression.
Lord Zuo usually keeps himself clean, does not visit brothels, does not form cliques for personal gain, and is honest and dedicated to his work. What could go wrong?
[Lord Zuo often invites his subordinates or classmates who missed their meals to his home for a simple meal...]
[The furnishings of the Zuo family were neither too shabby nor luxurious. There were only two courtyards, and they had mostly been in the rooms...]
[They publicized Mr. Zuo’s good reputation for being honest and self-disciplined. Little did they know that they were being used...]
[They are Mr. Zuo’s publicity props! ]
[The entire Zuo Mansion, perhaps all the rooms, they may have set foot in...]
[Kitchen, utility room, even toilet...]
[But there is one place they will definitely not set foot in...]
[Master Zuo's bedroom! After all, it is also where Madam Zuo rests, no one will go in! ]
[Who would have thought that the incorruptible Lord Zuo would have a screen behind his wife's dressing table, covering the wall...]
The courtiers opened their eyes wide, as if they had guessed something.
[Ahem...]
Without the emperor's order, the prince stepped forward, took the cup from the side door, and handed it to the emperor.
Jun Baozhu drank two more sips of water. The prince saw the clever look in Jun Baozhu's eyes and smiled and retreated.
【Wow! Thank you, Prince Brother! 】
【Thank you, Father! 】
The courtiers gritted their teeth and said, "Your Highness, you can't hold back when you speak, don't you know that?"
Then I realized, yes, the little princess is still young and we can’t ask too much of her.
Jun Baozhu sighed with satisfaction and continued in her heart:
[Tear off the outer wall, and the whole wall is full of gold bars! ]
There were gasps everywhere in the hall!
A whole wall!
bullion!
How much money should it be!
The court officials looked at Zuo Lingshan in shock and anger!
Many of them may not have the original intention of doing so for the national treasury...
The national treasury is only so big, and others have made too much money. No wonder others can only starve!
Zuo Lingshan remained calm and looked at the swaddling clothes in the emperor's hands with a deep gaze.
It seemed to be expected that he could not make peace with it, so there was nothing to estimate.
[I can’t believe that Mr. Zuo’s acting is so good...]
[A wall full of gold bars, I dare not show off my wealth outside, I dare not live lavishly in food, clothing, housing and transportation, I am sorry for you! ]
Everyone thought that, like the three people before, the emperor would call for someone to investigate immediately...
But Jun Baozhu's voice didn't stop, and we still have to wait for such a long time!
Just like that? How boring!
So, I asked Huo Feng, "Are there any other melons?"
[Such a good acting skill, is this all? No way? ]
To the emperor and his courtiers, it sounded like they were talking to themselves.
After Huo Feng searched for a while and answered, Jun Baozhu was surprised...
The hearts of the court officials were lifted again.
【What? 】
[Huh?]
[So disgusting! ]
[I previously thought that Zuo Lingshan was a Jinshi after all, so he must have outstanding abilities and was selected through various levels before he was appointed to the Ministry of Revenue...]
Isn’t it…?
The courtiers in the front row all turned around.
I completely forgot about the anger I just felt.
Are they going to hear some extraordinary history of rising to power?
Excitement took over everything.
On the high platform, the emperor looked cold.
The childish voice continued.
[Who knew, he turned out to be a cunning and scheming man! ]
[Most of the Jinshi scholars of the same year were sent to other places and started as county magistrates. Very few stayed in the court...]
[Zuo Lingshan's family was poor. He knew that even if he was chosen as a son-in-law, other families might not have the power to keep him in the capital...]
[He had his own plans from the beginning. He took office as Prime Minister Jiao, and he only had one daughter...]
[Prime Minister Jiao was a simple man who valued talent. He had sent a visiting card, but there were too many students who came to see the Prime Minister, and he did not stand out.]
[Therefore, he set his sights on the daughter of the Jiao family. He had already found out that the daughter of the Jiao family would go to the Kongchan Temple on the outskirts of the city to worship Buddha every month...]
The court officials' lips moved; the melon-eating had reached a critical moment.
[He bribed someone to create a robbery incident, and the result was...]
[Of course, a hero saves a beautiful woman. Zuo Lingshan is seriously injured, and the daughter of the Jiao family falls in love with him secretly...]
[She is worried that Jiao Xiang may not be impressed by his background, so she will marry her only daughter to herself and find other ways to repay him...]
[So... eh, that's despicable! ]
When the emperor heard this, his eyebrows jumped suddenly, and for the first time, he wanted to interrupt his daughter's voice.
