Chapter 564 Anger
The setting sun is like a golden brocade, covering the earth with a gorgeous dress.
In the imperial palace, the meeting hall.
In front of the Vermilion Palace gate, the attendants and guards all stood stiffly with their heads bowed and their hands hanging. The air around them was stagnant and silent. The beautiful sunset in the sky seemed to be completely isolated from this world by something, making it feel depressing and unsettling.
Until a sexy yet teasing low chuckle was heard from the deep hall, and the temperature in the space dropped another three points.
Following the sound, I looked inside and saw officials kneeling on the marble floor, many of them with sweat on their foreheads.
Sitting on the high seat, Ning Cuo was wearing a gorgeous crimson robe inlaid with gold patterns, and a large number of pearl and jade accessories on his chest. His robe swayed gorgeously as he threw the folded paper after he sneered.
His lips, now extremely beautiful, were filled with mockery. "I remember I was only away for half a month, right? How dare you bring anything so filthy and smelly to my desk?"
As he said this, he flipped open a book with his long fingers, sneered again, and said slowly, "Let's take a look at this first. The defense forces of Lin'an City fought with the garrison. The cause was that Shangguan was drunk, and more than 20 people died.
Oh, good, very good, you are worthy of being my soldiers, how come you didn’t die completely? What are you looking for me for? You still have the nerve to complain. Since you like fighting so much, send all of you to the border to serve as the death squad~"
After saying that, the man threw the paper lightly, and it landed in front of the people kneeling on the ground again.
Seeing this, everyone began to sweat even more.
Ning Cuo continued with the next book, and laughed again. "The silver used to bribe the superiors was intercepted by bandits. Do you want the court to send troops to suppress the bandits and recover the lost silver? Haha, it's the prefect Minshan, right? You want to recover the silver from the bandits, right? If you like the silver so much, why not send your family to the bandits as well and let him reunite with the silver~"
"Pah." Another folded book was thrown down.
Ning Cuo continued reading the next book. After finishing it, he was once again amused by this group of talented people. "This one is even more interesting. When distributing food for disaster relief, due to improper handling, it directly caused the victims to riot. They were beaten and bleeding. Haha, very good. Why did such a talented official return to Beijing to report on his work? Wouldn't it be better for him to stay there and vent the anger of the rioting victims? Let them be tied up and sent back. That would just quell the public anger~"
“Pah.”
The memorial was thrown down again, and the officials, with sweat on their heads, lowered their kneeling heads even lower.
Meanwhile, on the high throne, Ning Cuo was holding another memorial and laughing, and this time he laughed out loud, "Hahaha, good, good. An official went to a brothel during his inspection, and had his penis bitten off by a prostitute he had a grudge against. He reported it to the court as a work injury and wants the court to support him? You want support, right? Support him, have someone cut off all the rest of his body, and I'll support him~"
“Pah.”
When the memorial was thrown over again, all the ministers' heads hit the floor.
Xiao Lezi, who was standing aside, was also wiping his sweat constantly, cursing in his heart the local officials as a bunch of bastards. They were lining up to make their master angry!
Ning Cuo picked up the book again and opened it, and laughed again. It was not a playful and sarcastic laugh, but a real laugh, accompanied by a terrible and gloomy aura flowing from his body.
"This is well written, with such brilliant literary talent. Wow, he's a real talent, right? He's even praising my wife to bits. Look at this, he's even overstepping his authority and acting like a hen crowing the brood. How do you think I should reward him? Huh?"
