Chapter 101
"Your Majesty, Prince An's men are almost at the palace gates," Eunuch Liu quickly added.
"How many carriages?" Zhu Jingchen's heart sank to the bottom. He had always thought that Liu Zongcheng had not made any great contributions to the Ministry of Revenue, nor had he made any major mistakes.
Now, a large amount of gold has been found in his mansion. What does this mean?
Zhu Jingchen knew better than anyone else.
Right under his nose, Liu Zongcheng not only embezzled the people's money, but also a considerable amount of it.
"Your Majesty, Prince An brought ten carriages, and each carriage had two large boxes. Someone saw that the boxes were full of gold." After saying this, Eunuch Liu secretly glanced at Zhu Jingchen.
I wonder if the Emperor will be angry.
"What else did Prince An do?"
Although Zhu Jingchen was angry, he was angry that Liu Zongcheng was plundering the people's wealth right under his nose, not that Xu Heming had discovered the matter and exposed it.
"Prince An had someone escort him into the palace with gongs and drums," Eunuch Liu quickly replied.
"This Xu Heming, is he afraid I'll let Liu Zongcheng go?!" Zhu Jingchen was so angry he laughed.
"Your Majesty, what should we do now?" Eunuch Liu asked anxiously.
"Send someone to invite Tang Xiuyong and Li Tianyou from the Ministry of Revenue to the palace," Zhu Jingchen said after his anger subsided.
After all, since this silver was obtained by Liu Zongcheng through extortion, it should naturally be taken from the people and used for the people.
He was already dissatisfied with Liu Ruyan, and now, with the addition of the self-destructive Liu Zongcheng, he was even worse off.
The Liu family has no reason to exist anymore.
However, the news that the Liu family had discovered a large amount of gold and that Prince An had sent it to the palace spread throughout the capital.
When Li Tianyou received the news, he pondered for a while before quickly getting ready and heading to the palace.
"Father, is it alright to go to the palace at this time?" Li Zhiwei now harbors a deep aversion to the palace.
I always felt that the palace was not a good place.
"I'm fine. You and Qingshi stay in the manor and be careful. Qinghua and Qingyue, protect the young lady and the young master!" Li Tianyou instructed Qinghua and Qingyue beside him.
"Don't worry, sir! We will definitely protect the safety of Miss and Young Master!" Qinghua quickly replied.
Originally, she didn't want to change her form of address, but Li Zhiwei said that if she didn't, she couldn't stay in the Li family.
She and Qiuyue then changed how they addressed each other.
“Qingshi, your grandfather is going to the palace. You must take good care of your mother while you are at home, understand?” Li Tianyou was still a little worried, so he said to Xu Qingshi again.
"Grandfather, don't worry, Qingshi will definitely protect Mother!" Xu Qingshi patted his chest and promised.
At this moment, after flying with Wei and Rui for the tenth time, Tianci finally couldn't take it anymore!
Where did this little madman come from?
Ironically, he went along with his crazy antics ten times!
He's not an ox; no matter how strong he is, he'll still get exhausted.
"You are the young master of the Wei family, right?" Tianci looked at Wei Herui with an ambiguous gaze and asked again to confirm.
Tianci was now quite certain that his mother beat him because he was too unruly!
Such a menace should be sent back to the Wei family to wreak havoc on his parents!
In any case, the person I'm looking for isn't him!
After figuring it out, Tianci picked up Wei and Rui and left.
"Wow! I'm flying again! I'm flying again! Uncle, fly higher! Higher!" Wei Herui danced excitedly, completely oblivious to the fact that he had been kidnapped.
