“…Good! Very good!”
When Emperor Tianwu heard that the Shen family had also been punished by heaven, a huge stone fell from his heart.
I wish it wasn't because of the Shen family.
But apart from the Shen family, what other big thing could have angered God and made him bestow his talent?
Emperor Tianwu was puzzled and his brows were furrowed so much that they could kill a mosquito.
The throne was gone, the imperial seal was gone, and not even a piece of paper was left for him.
It’s cruel, so cruel.
Emperor Tianwu frowned and walked towards the Golden Throne Hall.
Su Huaizhong was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly trotted after him.
Looking at Emperor Tianwu's bare feet covered in mud, he felt uncomfortable.
He had followed Emperor Tianwu since he was a child, but he had never seen Emperor Tianwu be so mean.
Su Huaizhong lowered his eyes and looked at the cloth shoes on his feet, touched the shoes in his arms, and sighed softly.
He bought this from a small vendor after leaving the palace.
You can’t say he bought it because he didn’t pay.
Seeing so many imperial guards following him, the small vendor trembled as he gave him the shoes.
"emperor!"
Su Huaizhong hesitated for a moment, but still called out to stop Emperor Tianwu who was walking with big strides.
Emperor Tianwu paused and looked back at Su Huaizhong, "What's the matter?"
Su Huaizhong pursed his lips and took out the pair of cloth shoes from his arms.
"Your Majesty, please put on these cloth shoes for now."
"The palace is full of mud pits. I'm afraid there might be gravel in them, which could injure the emperor's body."
Emperor Tianwu frowned and looked at the black cloth shoes in Su Huaizhong's hand. After a while, he nodded.
"Well, why bother with all that now?"
When Su Huaizhong heard this, he nodded excitedly.
“Hey hey hey…”
As he spoke, Su Huaizhong knelt at the feet of Emperor Tianwu, picked up his muddy right foot, lifted a corner of his underwear, and carefully wiped Emperor Tianwu's foot clean.
Then he put the black coarse cloth shoes on Emperor Tianwu's feet.
Emperor Tianwu glanced at the black cloth shoes that fit him perfectly, curled his lips, and strode towards the Golden Throne Hall.
As soon as he stepped into the Golden Palace and looked at the empty throne, Emperor Tianwu almost couldn't breathe.
He took a deep breath and stepped onto the messy throne platform under the gaze of civil and military officials.
The official, who was kneeling crookedly, straightened his body when he heard Su Huaizhong's call.
Emperor Tianwu glanced at the ministers whose faces were pale. When his eyes saw the two words "Heaven's Punishment" on the huge stone, his heart suddenly ached.
Emperor Tianwu closed his eyes, took a deep breath and said,
"Is the Minister of Works, Tian Shixuan, here?!"
Tian Shixuan was slightly startled, then he quickly knelt down and crawled forward a step, kowtowed, and said,
"Your servant, Tian Shixuan, pays homage to His Majesty."
Emperor Tianwu said sternly, "You must have the Ministry of Works complete the construction of the Golden Throne Hall and the Palace of Heavenly Purity as soon as possible."
"The construction of other palaces in the imperial palace was carried out in order of rank."
"Deal with it quickly!"
"...I obey your order!" Tian Shixuan climbed up with trembling legs and limped out of the Golden Palace.
This is really a difficult task. A good cook cannot cook without rice. He was not even given a piece of wood. It is really difficult.
However, no matter how difficult it was, he had to quickly gather people to get it done.
No matter what, the Golden Palace must be restored to its original state tomorrow morning.
Thinking of the huge stone of divine punishment in the middle of the Golden Throne Hall, Tian Shixuan felt a throbbing pain in his temples.
It's difficult~
The voice of Emperor Tianwu continued to ring out in the Golden Palace.
"Where is the Minister of Revenue, Kong Zongli?"
Emperor Tianwu frowned as he looked at the ministers under the throne who were all wearing their underwear. It was a sea of white, and with the sun shining directly above their heads, he couldn't see where the ministers were kneeling at all.
"Your Highness, I, Kong Zongli, pay my respects to His Majesty!"
Kong Zongli took a deep breath, kowtowed and shouted.
Emperor Tianwu looked at Kong Zongli with his hands behind his back.
"Have all parties pay this year's taxes immediately!"
The national treasury was always empty, which made him feel uneasy and restricted in doing anything.
Kong Zongli looked at Emperor Tianwu in surprise.
It's only June, and it's not time to pay taxes yet.
"Go quickly!" Emperor Tianwu shouted sternly.
"...I obey your order!" Kong Zongli agreed reluctantly and left the Golden Palace trembling.
Looking at the bright sun in the sky, he felt a chill in his heart.
Emperor Tianwu stood on the tattered throne and continued to issue orders.
"The Imperial Observatory..."
“.......”
Soon, most of the ministers who had been kneeling in the Golden Throne Hall for the whole morning were assigned tasks.
Those who were not assigned tasks also had things to do. They had to go to the surrounding cities to find merchants and raise money to fill the empty treasury...
........
All the civil and military officials in the capital were overwhelmed and extremely busy.
Originally, the confiscation of property and exile of the Duke of Huguo’s mansion today was a big event, and many people would definitely go to see them off.
I don't dare to go myself, so at least I have to ask the servants at home to send him off.
As a result, who knew that when I woke up, the sky had fallen and my home had collapsed.
They are so busy with their own affairs that no one can remember the exiled Shen family.
When the ministers came out of the palace one after another, the Shen family had already left the city gate.
"Okay, we can only take you here."
The tall imperial guard put Chen Yong down from his back.
Lu Man and Meng Yunfei hurried forward and supported the limp Chen Yong together.
"Thank you, you've worked hard."
Old Madam Shen knelt down and saluted to express her gratitude to the tall imperial guard.
"You can't do that!" The palace guards hurriedly moved half their bodies to the side.
Although Shen Yong was a worthless person, he admired General Shen from the bottom of his heart.
Old Madam Shen was a first-rank lady before, and every time he entered the palace, he would bow to her.
Now that Old Madam Shen suddenly saluted him, he was very nervous.
"I am a criminal now, how can I not do anything?"
Old Madam Shen smiled bitterly.
Qian Erliang gave the imperial guards a disdainful look, then smiled and walked up to Ding Zhenhao and the imperial guards and said,
"Thank you for your hard work..."
“Let’s say goodbye…”
Don't waste time, let's go quickly and don't delay his work.
Qian Erliang smiled on the surface, but he was feeling impatient inside.
Look at how badly the Shen family is doing. There is not even a single person coming to see them off at the city gate.
This was the first time he had encountered such a thing.
In the past, no matter how poor a person was when he was exiled, there would always be one or two relatives or friends to see him off.
I always give him some silver or something and ask him to take care of me.
The Shen family is not even a ghost away.
Oh, no, there was a problem that he took care of.
That is Yi Zhengjin, the commander of the Imperial Guards, but there is no benefit in taking care of him.
Ding Zhenhao pulled the corner of his lips,
"Well, let's get on the road."
He had wasted the whole morning in vain, he had to hurry back to his adoptive father's house to check on the situation.
I took a quick look this morning and my adoptive father seemed to be seriously injured.
