The ministers were silent, not even daring to breathe.

"Snapped!"

The emperor angrily threw these letters at Liu Yuanwailang, "The witnesses and material evidence are all there, what else do you have to say?!"

Liu Yuanwailang looked at these things in shock and collapsed on the ground with weak legs.

He had never exchanged letters with Xu Yuandao. Everything they did was agreed upon on the spot!This was clearly someone who was deliberately trying to kill him!

He looked at King Yu pleadingly, hoping he could give him a hand.

Unexpectedly, King Yu didn't look at him, as if nothing happened, he casually fiddled with the jade pendant hanging on his waist.

It was a jade pendant engraved with fish playing lotus, and it was a personal belonging to my mother.

Liu Yuanwailang instantly turned pale.

Mother and him can only live together.

Liu Yuanwailang took a deep look at Taifu Liu's tall back and smiled to himself.

He kowtowed, his voice hoarse, "I did all of this. I caused these things in the name of King Yu."

The emperor's face was as cold as a layer of ice, "Why are you doing this?"

"My lord, I just can't get used to Beixiu Yan always looking aloof and condescending!"

"For so many years, every time I went to the military camp to deliver food and grass, he never looked at me. Last year, I just miscalculated and delivered less. He immediately made up for it, and he still did it in front of all the soldiers. I reprimanded my minister!”

"Chen, I really can't swallow this breath!"

This statement is full of errors.

But at this time, no one in the court cared about the truth or falsehood behind this sentence.

The emperor's tone was cold, without any warmth, "Come here, take him down and behead him!"

After Liu Yuanwailang was dragged down, the emperor looked at Taifu Liu. His sinister eyes made people shudder, but his tone was gentle and powerful.

"What do you think of my decision?"

Taifu Liu immediately knelt down to apologize, "Your Majesty is wise."The wicked son paid no attention to the laws of the court and deserved his death.The family is unfortunate, but I didn’t manage it well. I feel unworthy of the emperor’s kindness. I ask the emperor to punish me! "

His face was sad, but his heart was not panic at all.

He is just a son born from a concubine, and he will die when he dies, and he does not lack this one.On the contrary, it was King Yu, who owed him a big favor for this matter!

The emperor waved his hand to signal Taifu Liu to get up.Then he silently stood up from the golden throne, looked into the distance with empty eyes, and sighed secretly.

After the dynasty dispersed, Beixiu Yan returned to the military camp.After Commander He heard about what happened in the court, he hesitated and couldn't help but ask.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Liu has always been a coward. He always found ways to deprive us of our food and enrich his own pockets. This man doesn't look like a loyal person. Why doesn't he bite out King Yu?"

"There must be something in someone else's hands!"

Qin Ming was also angry, but after all, he had been investigating this matter, so he naturally saw it more clearly than Commander He.

Commander He let out a long sigh, and there was endless regret in his words, "Alas! If you miss this opportunity, it will be difficult to deal with King Yu again."

Bei Xiuyan took a sip of tea with a calm expression and said nothing.

In the court hall, the emperor looked at King Yu with extremely disappointed eyes.

How could you really escape unscathed after doing something like that?

Bei Xiuyan lowered his eyes and looked at the chessboard in front of him. Heizi already showed signs of defeat, while Bai Zi's offensive became more and more fierce.

When Shen Ruzhou heard that Beixiu had returned to the military camp after a banquet, he quickly took care of the matters at hand and went to the main military tent.

As soon as she entered the door, she couldn't wait to ask: "How is the situation in the court today? How did the emperor deal with Prince Yu?"

Bei Xiuyan sipped his tea lightly and said nothing.

Qin Ming saluted Shen Ruzhou and said angrily.

"It's really unfair! Before the people were in turmoil, the courtiers stood up and clamored to hold the prince responsible and share his power. Now anyone with a discerning eye can see that Prince Yu is causing trouble behind the scenes, but no one dares to say anything!"

Qin Ming became even more unhappy when he thought that so many innocent people had been infected and almost died, "The emperor only punished Liu Yuanwailang and Xu Yuandao. But he didn't punish King Yu at all!"

Is it so cheap, King Yu?

Shen Ruzhou's anger rose instantly.

However, she didn't seem to be in a hurry when she saw Bei Xiuyan, and was even watching the chess game in front of her with interest.

This calm and calm demeanor does not seem like a failure.

This is the Beixiu Banquet, how could Prince Yu escape so easily?

Shen Ruzhou looked straight at the Beixiu Banquet and made a bold guess, "I remember that Liu Yuanwailang is the deacon in charge of money and food in the Household Department. This position is very important. After his death, has the regent figured out who will fill it?"

Beixiu Yan paused for a moment and raised his eyes to look at Shen Ruzhou, a hint of admiration flashing across his eyes, "Hu Zhiyi has been in the Ministry of Household Affairs for many years and is quite diligent in his work. This time it is suitable to fill the vacancy of Liu Yuanwai."

Shen Ruzhou had a suspicion in his mind, "Hu Zhiyi, he is from the regent, right?"

Although she knew that Beixiuyan's rebellion would happen many years later, she must have planned it early and placed her own people at key positions.

The management of power is not something that happens overnight. Even Xiao Chenyan took many years of hard work to save enough capital to seize the throne.

Bei Xiuyan's thin lips curled slightly, his expression remained the same, "As an official of the imperial court, you should do your best to conduct political affairs and strictly abide by the law. The Ministry of Revenue is the place where money is managed, and integrity is the most important thing."

"Liu Yuanwailang wasted his time and enriched himself, so he is not suitable for this position. Hu Zhiyi is an upright man and has a clean mind. I am just following the trend and making the best use of him."

"As long as it doesn't make Prince Yu feel better."

Shen Ruzhou nodded. She understood that Beixiu Yan had a big plan and would not reveal too much easily. It was good to be able to tell her this today.

In the past few days, the plague was raging in the military camp and the people were rioting. It was really an eventful time. Shen Ruzhou was as busy as ever and felt exhausted. Now it finally came to an end.

She clasped her hands together and muttered silently: "Amitabha, it's finally over."

Seeing Shen Ruzhou praying devoutly, Bei Xiuyan's handsome face became much more relaxed, and there was a trace of amusement in his eyes.

"Don't you believe this? You don't even want to wear an amulet, so why are you here praying to God and worshiping Buddha?"

"what?"

Shen Ruzhou suddenly remembered that when Miaodong gave her the amulet that day, her refusal must have been heard by Lu Huaining. He never thought that Lu Huaining would detail everything and tell Beixiu Yan everything.

This big mouth!

She scolded Lu Huaining in her heart, and said bravely: "That is actually not a talisman, it is just an object that can bring good luck, so Miaodong asked me to take it with me, hoping that it can ensure everything goes smoothly for me."

Beixiu Yan rarely became interested, "Oh, what object is so magical?"
