The young Taoist priest was also very serious when refining the elixir.
The reason why Wei Yunyi came out today.
Not for anything else.
But tonight is the system settlement day.
Judging from the news we received in the past few days, the gentry have already caused a great disturbance in the capital.
Not only officials, but even some ordinary people were opposed to the equalization of land tax and land tax. Although there were some people who supported it, the number was too small.
Wei Yunyi even knew that Zhang Zhengming had submitted a memorial. At this moment, he almost guessed that his father-in-law must be having a headache right now.
He didn't believe that under such circumstances, the fortune of the Wei Dynasty could still rise.
The nobles were causing trouble, and the court was in turmoil.
And I don’t know how many memorials Concubine Ying received.
It just so happens that today is the settlement time, so I’ll go and see how things have progressed.
If the situation becomes unmanageable, I can take action and suppress it.
Especially since the Hunyuan Pill will be ready in a few days, it’s been a lot of happy events recently.
With this thought in mind, Wei Yunyi immediately left the alchemy room.
Go and see Concubine Ying.
Because Wang Jin was on duty these days and was not around, he was served by another young eunuch.
In Jingde Palace.
Wei Yunyi just arrived.
Then I saw Concubine Ying coming over with a smile on her face and greeting: "Your Majesty, I greet you."
This made him very puzzled. Logically speaking, the other party had received so many memorials opposing the reform during this period, and should have been very busy. But it seemed like something was wrong.
For a moment, Wei Yunyi had a bad premonition in his heart, and he couldn't help but say: "My dear, what are you so happy about?"
"Your Majesty, you will know if you follow me." Zhao Lingying smiled and walked in front to lead the way.
When he walked into the bedroom, he took out a memorial from the table.
"Your Majesty, please take a look at this memorial. It's a great occasion!"
As soon as these words were spoken.
Wei Yunyi's expression changed.
Then he took the memorial without hesitation and opened it.
This was presented by my father-in-law today, and the content is not complicated.
The whole article only talks about one thing.
That is, all the Jiangnan gentry who came to the capital were found to have colluded with the Baiyi Sect and committed heinous crimes, and there was conclusive evidence.
After a day of interrogation, all the nobles admitted their crimes!
He is now imprisoned in the Jingzhao Prefecture Prison.
Because so many people were implicated, neither Jingzhao Prefecture nor Song Gongwen dared to act on their own and specifically submitted a memorial asking the emperor to handle the matter himself.
At the same time, this memorial also implicitly suspected that those officials who once supported the Jiangnan gentry were also implicated.
You have to make your own decisions...
Buzz!
When Wei Yunyi saw this, he was completely stunned.
At this moment, he just felt dizzy, and his hands and feet were shaking constantly.
My father-in-law actually arrested all the Jiangnan nobles and found out those who colluded with the White Clothes Sect and committed treason...
Doesn't this mean that his plan to indulge the gentry, stir up trouble in the capital, and shake the Wei Dynasty has completely failed?
Not only that, the other party even dragged in those officials who supported the aristocracy...
this...
Wei Yunyi kept shaking his head in disbelief, and then everything went dark!
"Your Majesty, what is the matter with you?"
When Zhao Lingying saw this, she was immediately shocked and hurried over.
Fortunately, she has been practicing martial arts since she was a child, so her reaction speed is extremely fast.
Cui Guo, who was standing beside her, was also horrified at this moment and shouted directly, "Call the imperial physician! Call the imperial physician!"
The emperor has health problems, which is a serious matter and we cannot be careless at all.
Otherwise, no matter how many people are buried with him, it will not be enough.
This moment.
Everyone in Jingde Palace was shocked and started shouting.
"I'm fine, no need to call the imperial physician." But at this moment, Wei Yunyi came to his senses, stopped immediately, and asked everyone to stop.
The reason he did this was simply because things were completely beyond his expectations.
I originally thought that letting the nobles make some trouble would reduce their luck.
But now it seems that there is no chance.
The nobles were accused of colluding with the White Clothes Sect. Could they still have the power to continue to destabilize the court? It was impossible!
At this moment, Wei Yunyi held the memorial, his hands trembling constantly. First, during the Battle of Gaoyang, his brother-in-law had stabbed him in the back, and now it was his father-in-law's turn.
Why is my life so miserable?
Everything was unexpected...
But soon, he suddenly reacted.
Could it be that the crime of this noble family colluding with the Baiyi Sect was deliberately framed by my father-in-law?
After all, the other party is now in charge of the reform, and if any problems arise, the father-in-law will be to blame.
In recent days, there have been memorials opposing the reform every day. Could it be that Song Gongwen feels threatened and chooses to take desperate measures and fight to the death with the gentry?
Although Wei Yunyi was also very clear that each and every one of these noble families was not clean.
To a greater or lesser extent, they have all violated the laws of the Wei Dynasty.
But things like colluding with the White Clothes Sect are not possible.
It’s too serious.
Immediately, he couldn't help but raise his head, looked at Zhao Lingying and said, "My beloved, is there any problem with this memorial?"
Zhao Lingying, standing nearby, frowned upon hearing this, not knowing what it meant. Her heart was filled with even more doubts.
The arrest of the gentry by Song Gongwen not only stabilized the court, but also calmed the turmoil in the capital. Especially since the crime was confirmed, there would be absolutely no obstacles to the implementation of the land-based tax system in the future.
