She never expected that after her own son became emperor, he would actually confiscate her family's property. Although no one was killed, it would have been better if someone had been killed!
The money is gone, the official position is gone, the Wuya family is finished!
Enraged, she couldn't help but burst into a tirade: "I knew he was heartless and ungrateful, even ruthless towards his own mother's clan! If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have given birth to him! I wish I could strangle him to death..."
Yinzhen heard these words as soon as he entered, but his expression did not change. His tone was unhurried, casual and relaxed, comparable to the current speaking speed of Emperor Kangxi: "Empress Mother is tired of talking. Nanny, why don't you quickly pour her a cup of tea so that she can moisten her throat before continuing to scold?"
The Empress Dowager, the person involved: ...So angry!!!
The surrounding palace servants: ? ? ?
"Yinzhen, you...you are being insolent."
Yinzhen looked at her with a smile: "Why are you angry, Your Majesty? Tell me where I have done wrong, and I will listen."
But they won't change! Ha!!
It's just for fun.
The Empress Dowager stretched out her hand, pointing at him tremblingly: "You confiscated the property of the Uya family. Do you know that they are my maternal clan?"
Yinzhen said sincerely, "I know! It is precisely because I know that I have shown extra leniency. Even though Wuya Yunyue was causing trouble in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, I did not take her life. I have already sent people to release the Wuya family. What, Mother, are you dissatisfied with the laws of the Qing Dynasty?"
The Empress Dowager was so angry that she couldn't speak.
Yinzhen offered another round of "comfort" before leaving.
As for Kangxi, he didn't say anything. Kangxi knew about the problems with the Imperial Household Department, but he didn't know the problems would be so big. This time, Yinzhen confiscated only a few households in the Imperial Household Department, but it directly increased the national treasury by half. Even Kangxi couldn't say anything, and even hated him to death.
I know you're greedy, and I even allow you to be a little greedy occasionally, but I didn't know you were this greedy.
The Imperial Household Department was responsible for the royal family's food, clothing, housing, and transportation. They embezzled the emperor's property, which was essentially his property.
If Emperor Kangxi hadn't been too weak to lift a sword, he would have loved to personally behead two of them; it was truly despicable.
