The Emperor's Phoenix: The Divine Doctor and the Abandoned Concubine 521 Major Events, the Ninth Prince's Generous Move (Fifth Update)

As soon as the queen entered the palace, she found that the atmosphere inside was not right. She suppressed her uneasiness and was about to pay her respects, but the emperor suddenly grabbed the memorials on the table and threw them at the queen. The queen did not dare to dodge, and her forehead was bruised by the memorials.

"Your Majesty, please calm down." The queen didn't know what had happened, she only knew that the emperor was in a bad mood. It seemed that she had come at a wrong time. She secretly blamed the eunuch for not informing her in advance. She hurriedly grabbed the memorial and knelt down with a thud.

"Calm down? My dear queen, how can you ask me to calm down?" The emperor's eyes were red, and it was obvious that he was very angry and he didn't even try to hide it.

"Your Majesty, what have I done wrong to make you so angry?" The Queen looked aggrieved and thought to herself that she was unlucky. She came not earlier or later, but when the Emperor was in a bad mood.

"What mistake have you made? You still dare to ask me what mistake you made? Open the memorial and take a good look at it. My good queen and my good Yue family!" After the emperor finished speaking, his face turned red, his breathing became unstable, and he held the armrest and gasped heavily.

The chief eunuch quickly calmed the emperor down: "Your Majesty, calm down and take care of yourself."

The ministers also knelt down hurriedly, and each of them sincerely called on the emperor to take care of his health.

The Queen opened the memorial in great confusion. Her face turned pale instantly, and she kowtowed before she finished reading it: "Your Majesty, please calm down. Please investigate. My father and brother would never do such a thing. Someone must have framed my father and brother. Your Majesty, please understand."

The Ninth Prince was right. The Queen and her gang were busy taking care of their own affairs, so how could they have the time to care about the affairs of the menagerie, let alone accuse the Ninth Prince of being disrespectful to the Emperor and the Queen.

"Framed? I hope someone framed you. If General Meng had not come to the capital to report on his work and encountered this incident, I would not have known that my father-in-law and uncle were so bold. Queen, there are witnesses and evidence. Who do you think framed them?" The emperor was very angry and disappointed. After all, the queen's father and brother were royal relatives. Doing such a thing was undoubtedly a slap in his face.

"Your Majesty, my father and brother would never sell grain and pig iron and do things that are harmful to the country. I beg Your Majesty to investigate." The queen kowtowed desperately despite the pain.

Once this crime is proven, there will be no way to recover.

Because of the vicious competition among several large merchants some time ago, the price of grain remained high. Although Dongling had not yet experienced a serious food shortage like Xiling and Nanling, because of that incident, the emperor attached great importance to food and repeatedly ordered the ministers in the court not to allow the private sale of grain.

However, the private sale of grain has been rampant despite repeated bans. The difference in grain sold to Nanling, Beiling and Xiling can be several times or even dozens of times. With such huge profits, many people take risks, but the quantities are not large and they are done in secret. The emperor cannot catch them or find evidence, and he can do nothing to them.

The emperor could barely tolerate the small amount of grain trade, but he would never allow the trade of pig iron. Pig iron is the raw material for making weapons. Once it leaks out, it will increase the national strength of other countries, which will really shake the foundation of the country.

Although the profits in this industry have always been dozens of times higher, once caught, the crime is death and the entire clan will be executed. Except for those who are willing to sacrifice their lives for money, ordinary people will never touch it.

This time, the Queen's father and brother not only got involved in the grain business, but also the pig iron business. The most important thing is that the quantity was not small. Judging from the account books presented by General Meng, in just two months, more than one million silver coins were in and out. The amount was astonishing.

This time, the queen’s family may not be able to be saved.

"No way, the father-in-law and the uncle are too bold. How could they touch such a business? This is courting death. They are not so short of money." When Feng Qingchen heard what the Ninth Uncle said, his mouth opened wide and it took him a long time to close it.

In modern times, this is the arms trade. Although those who can engage in arms trade are all high-ranking officials, if the father-in-law of the emperor does this, isn't this poaching his own son-in-law?

"Nothing is impossible. As long as there is enough profit, they would dare to sell not only pig iron and grain, but also the country. Don't forget that they are damaging the interests of the country, but they are the ones who benefit.

The interests of the country belong to the emperor, not the father-in-law. Only what is in your own hands is yours. Besides, the father-in-law wants to support Prince Luo in his bid for the throne. How can he bribe someone without a lot of money? "

Feng Qingchen's surprised expression was so adorable that the Ninth Prince wanted to reach out and pinch her, but when he got halfway through, he realized that his hands were still chubby. He had to withdraw his hand in frustration, secretly blaming himself for acting too impulsively and injuring his right hand so badly.

There are parasites everywhere. Feng Qingchen thought of some dark things in the army in his previous life and smiled bitterly: "I really can't understand it. They are already in high positions and have much more than ordinary people. Why are they still not satisfied? Is it true that more money is better?"

Is it interesting that those corrupt officials embezzle so much money that they can’t spend it in several lifetimes?

“People are greedy, and no one would think that money is too much. Only with money can one accomplish more things, have greater power, and provide shelter for future generations, so that they can live a prosperous life.

Accumulating a large amount of wealth can ensure that future generations will have no worries and become an everlasting family. Qingchen, human ambition can never be satisfied. After getting one thing, they will want more.

When a prince wants to be a crown prince, when he is a crown prince, he wants to be the emperor. When he is the emperor, he wants to unify the country. After unifying the country, he wants to be immortal, and his descendants can protect the country and be emperors from generation to generation. The human heart is very small, but that small heart can have endless desires. "At the end, the Ninth Uncle sighed deeply.

He is also very ambitious!

"Okay, even if that's the case, how could it be such a coincidence? Shouldn't such a thing be done secretly? How could it be discovered by a military general who had just come to Beijing to report on his work? Even the account books were found. The father-in-law and the uncle of the emperor can't be so stupid." Feng Qingchen absolutely did not believe that the Ninth Prince was not involved in this matter.

Otherwise, why didn't they find it earlier or later, but today? Judging from the time, it should have been after the incident at the zoo.

"I knew I couldn't hide it from you. Well, I arranged this matter secretly. In fact, the Queen's father and brother didn't even know about the pig iron business.

They thought this was a private sale of salt, tea and grain. I had people secretly put the pig iron in the grain and private salt and shipped it out. If the Queen's father and brother knew there was pig iron in it, they would definitely not get involved." The Ninth Prince narrowed his eyes, and a mischievous smile flashed across his narrow eyes.

"It's you, I knew it. Without you, how could the Queen's father and brother have done such a large business? It's not easy to find sources of pig iron and grain. Now the only person who can come up with such a large amount of grain is Su Wenqing.

As for pig iron, unless someone wants to die or cannot survive, ordinary people will never touch the pig iron business. The queen's father and brother did not have the courage to touch pig iron, and even if they did, they could not come up with such a large batch of goods.

The Queen's father and brother are really unlucky this time. You have targeted them. Even if they don't die, they will be skinned alive. No, they will definitely not escape this disaster. This matter has touched the emperor's reverse scale. The emperor would rather kill the wrong person than let them go."

Feng Qingchen was satisfied after getting a positive answer, and he finally figured out what he had been puzzled about.

With the Ninth Prince around, everything is possible. The Queen's father and brother are really miserable this time. The Ninth Prince will hit the target with one strike. They can't wash themselves clean even if they jump into the Yellow River...
