Chapter 8 I haven't touched enough yet
As she pressed, her hands became more and more aggressive, finally reaching directly to the tyrant's chest.
His fingers lifted up the water and gently lifted it up. His other hand was not idle either, and continued to move gently on his arm...
[I made a lot of money today. I'm not the one who suffered the loss anyway, so I must make the most of it! ]
Mo Cangyan originally wanted to prove it to her and see her embarrassment, but he didn't expect that she would touch him so vigorously. If it were an ordinary woman, she would have been extremely embarrassed and angry.
"You go out, I'll wash it myself!"
【I haven't touched enough yet! 】
Feng Xiyao curled her lips unwillingly and glared at the back of the tyrant's head.
After taking one more reluctant look, she stood up and prepared to leave, but the floor had just been soaked in water, and her feet slipped, and she fell into the bathtub with a splash.
"Help, I can't swim!"
After falling into the water, Feng Xiyao screamed subconsciously and struggled hard with his hands and feet.
Mo Cangyan held his forehead in silence, he knew he was wrong again this time.
Worried that Feng Xiyao had really drowned here, he walked over and picked her up.
"Shut up!"
After Feng Xiyao stood firmly, he wiped the water off his face. When he saw the scene clearly, he realized how ridiculous he was.
The water in the bathtub was not very deep, just above her waist, not enough to drown her.
She looked at the tyrant awkwardly, and was about to explain, but what she saw was his naked body. Even his lower body that was originally covered by water was vaguely visible, and something under his abdomen was now facing her straight ahead.
“Ahhh~”
Feng Xiyao let out a woodchuck scream, then subconsciously raised her hand to push the man in front of her away, but the height and distance between them caused her to push the wrong place.
"Hmm~"
The tyrant just groaned and frowned in pain.
Realizing what she had touched, Feng Xiyao took a few steps back, hurriedly rolled and crawled out of the bath, and then ran out of the side hall in a flash.
After Mo Cangyan came to his senses, he realized that there was no such a bold woman like Feng Xiyao here. He was so angry that he wanted to kill her.
The news that the empress ran out of the Purple Gold Palace in a wet state spread throughout the palace like a gust of wind.
She didn't dare go out for fear of being caught by the tyrant, and stayed in Fengchun Palace all day.
"My lady, what's wrong with you?"
Ruyi saw that she was listless all day and asked in a low voice.
She shook her head: "…I'm fine!"
Seeing that she was absent-minded, Ruyi walked over and grabbed her hand.
"My lady, being favored by the Emperor is an honor for women in the harem, don't be afraid!"
"What, favor?"
Feng Xiyao's dizzy mind still grasped the key words.
"Yes, you and the emperor took a hot spring bath together in the Purple Gold Palace, and the news spread throughout the harem! Even the maids who often bullied us heard the news and recently they dared not yell at us. The servants in Fengchun Palace were also released. This was not the case before!"
Feng Xiyao frowned. She hit the tyrant's "baby", but he didn't blame her at all!!
…
It’s not that Mo Cangyan didn’t want to blame Feng Xiyao, but he had been busy with government affairs recently and had no time to find her, otherwise he would have torn her guts out!
In the court.
Mo Cangyan looked at the ministers below who were seemingly respectful to him, with an expressionless face.
After the ceremony, Prime Minister Feng stood out from the civil servants and bowed to the emperor: "Your Majesty, I have something to report!"
Prime Minister Feng and the emperor's uncle had always been at odds with each other. He was a loyal and honest man, and many times, there were things that no other civil and military officials dared to say, but he was the only one who dared to say it. Moreover, he often admonished himself not to fight violence with violence, and he nagged all day long.
That's why Mo Cangyan was extremely annoyed with him. If he hadn't known that he was a loyal man who cared about the country and the people, he would have sent him to the Heavenly Prison long ago.
He knew about the Jiangzhou incident and secretly sent people to investigate. Now he is definitely going to target Lin Youquan.
The quarrel between the two of them was a good thing for Mo Cangyan, as he could use Prime Minister Feng to bring up the matter.
"OK!"
After getting the emperor's permission, Prime Minister Feng immediately took out the letter he had prepared long ago and asked Eunuch Hai to present it.
"Your Majesty, this is what my subordinates in Jiangzhou found out. It clearly shows how Lin Youquan colluded with local officials to embezzle silver mines and deceived Your Majesty!"
Mo Cangyan glanced at the letter in his hand, which was similar to what Qin Fang had investigated. He threw the things casually on the desk and looked up at Lin Youquan.
"Your Majesty, I did not collude with the local government. It just happened when I arrived in Jiangzhou. I was not aware of it at first!"
As he said this, he looked at Feng Li provocatively: "Prime Minister Feng, if you want to frame me like this, you must produce witnesses!"
Lin Youquan had already dealt with the person who knew the truth, and he didn't think anyone could find any evidence to accuse him.
Prime Minister Feng spoke again: "Your Majesty, the friend to whom I wrote this letter has been silenced. When he was in Jiangzhou, he saw Lin Youquan spreading false information with his own eyes. When he wanted to come back to report the news, he was silenced by his people. Fortunately, he wrote this letter early and handed it to my men!"
"Otherwise, we still don't know Lin Youquan's evil ambitions!"
"I've already said it. Prime Minister Feng keeps saying that I killed people to silence them. Then you'd better produce evidence, otherwise you're deceiving the emperor!" Lin Youquan didn't have any worries on his face, as if he was not the one being talked about.
Seeing that he refused to admit it, Prime Minister Feng became furious and scolded him.
"I have never seen such a shameless person."
As he said this, he looked towards the emperor who was sitting high on the throne.
"Your Majesty, you must trust me. This is Lin Youquan's conspiracy!"
Mo Cangyan watched quietly, he knew the character of the prince's uncle, unless he could be both the victim and the possessor, he would never admit it.
Seeing that Prime Minister Feng was getting more and more excited, Mo Cangyan was afraid that he might accidentally pout over it, so he spoke.
"I understand. Please leave first, my dear!"
"emperor……"
Prime Minister Feng wanted to say something but the emperor waved his hand, signaling him to leave first.
When the other ministers saw that Prime Minister Feng had produced evidence but it still had no effect on Lin Youquan, they began to discuss the matter in low voices with dissatisfaction.
Seeing that everyone was dissatisfied with Lin Youquan, Mo Cangyan curled his lips and spoke to comfort them.
"My uncle has also seen that the ministers and the people have a slightly extreme view of you. So you should take a good rest in Shangjing recently. Once I have investigated the matter thoroughly, I will definitely give you justice."
Anyone with a discerning eye could tell from these words that the king's uncle was imprisoned, and some of the ministers wanted to applaud.
Lin Youquan didn't expect the emperor to treat him like this, and he raised his thick black eyebrows.
"Your Majesty has made such an arrangement. You don't trust me, your humble servant!"
"Uncle, you are overthinking. I just want to give the people an explanation. Otherwise, everyone will think that I am protecting you. I am doing this for your uncle's good!"
"emperor……"
Lin Youquan was speechless for a moment.
After the morning court session, Mo Cangyan asked all the ministers to stay.
By the way, he ordered Zhou Fuhai: "Bring the queen here!"
The time had finally come for him to use his queen who could foresee the future.
