The most romantic little emperor

Just when Qin Hao was about to accept her invitation, Ah Yue, who was sitting opposite him, reminded him, "Your Highness, don't forget that you have something important to do tonight. You still have to go to see Master Feng!"

Qin Hao was so happy that he almost forgot about practicing martial arts with A Yue in the evening.

So, he tapped his forehead and said apologetically, "My beloved, it's not that I won't go to your place, but I really don't have time. I've been very busy with government affairs recently and have been dealing with government affairs most of the time. I also have very important things to do at night. After a while, I will definitely make it up to you."

Dong Meir glared at A Yue with great dissatisfaction. It was A Yue's reminder that changed Qin Hao's mind.

Naturally, she didn't believe what Qin Hao said, and she looked around at the girls. The meaning was obvious: You have time to eat, drink and have fun here, but you come to me and make excuses. Who are you trying to fool?

But she did not continue to pester him, so as not to cause Qin Hao's dissatisfaction.

She understood men's minds very well, and had played Qin Hao in the same way before.

She was unwilling to be rejected just like that, so she leaned on Qin Hao's arm and whispered in Qin Hao's ear: "Your Highness, if you don't go, you will miss a lot of wonderful stories. I have prepared a special program for you!"

Qin Hao's arms felt the rubbing of her plump soft flesh in front of him, and his earlobe felt her sweet breath. The thing under him swelled instantly, and a desire to conquer her arose in his heart.

He suppressed the desire in his heart, bit his lips lightly, and said calmly: "My beloved, this king..."

Before he could finish, Elder Feng's voice came from outside, "Your Highness, Grand Tutor Xie is waiting for you in the study. He said he has something important to report."

The old wind came at the right time, just like a timely rain after a long drought.

Qin Hao spread his hands and said helplessly, "My beloved, please go back first! I have to deal with some important matters. When I am done with this period of time, I will personally come to Linglong Palace and compensate you. What do you think?"

Dong Mei'er looked aggrieved and disappointed. She forced a smile and said, "Your Highness, I will be waiting for your arrival at any time. I will go back now."

She waited until she had greeted Wang Yourong before turning around and leaving.

Qin Hao breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, Dong Meir's aura was too strong. Just a slight teasing from her almost made him lose his guard.

Looking at Dong Meir's departing back, he was deeply moved for a moment, and thought to himself that he must practice the Pure Yang Wuji Divine Art as soon as possible, otherwise, if he encountered this situation again in the future, he might not be able to withstand it.

Then he asked Xiang Fenglao why Xie An came to the Eastern Palace to seek an audience.

Elder Feng smiled faintly and said, "In addition to Grand Tutor Xie, there are also former Minister of Rites Shi Minghan, Left Vice Minister of Criminal Affairs Feng Huaiyu, and Vice Minister of Revenue Lu Yuanshan who have requested to see me. I believe they must have something important to report."

Qin Hao nodded slightly and then said goodbye to the girls.

When we arrived at the study, Grand Tutor Xie and a few others were discussing disaster relief.

Qin Hao then asked A Yue to invite the adults to serve tea and sit down.

The Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, Lu Yuanshan, was nervous and quickly knelt on the ground to kowtow to Qin Hao to express his gratitude.

What happened in yesterday's morning court still scares him. If it weren't for Xie An's brave words to save him, and if Qin Hao hadn't given him a lighter sentence in the end, his fate would have been unimaginable.

After Xie An's kind advice over the past two days, Lu Yuanshan also faced the reality, so today he came to the Prince's Mansion to express his loyalty to Qin Hao.

Qin Hao walked up to him, personally helped him up from the ground, patted his arm, and comforted him: "Lord Lu, I demoted you three levels, but it was not my intention. It was because Minister Su was aggressive and wanted to kill you. I actually have high hopes for you, and demoted you out of a desire to protect you. I hope you don't hate me."

After listening to Qin Hao's explanation, Lu Yuanshan was deeply moved and immediately expressed his loyalty to Qin Hao.

Qin Hao accepted it calmly and said to him, "Lord Lu, although you have been demoted and can no longer serve in the imperial court, and can only be a small official in the Ministry of Revenue, you must not be discouraged. As long as you can work hard for me and the court, I believe you will be reinstated soon, and maybe even make further progress."

Lu Yuanshan's eyes lit up and he was secretly surprised. He had already become the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, and His Highness said that he could go one step further. Could it be that he could also become the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue?

Wait, is the prince planning to take action against Su Zhengfang to make such a statement?

That must be the case. Considering the news of Su Zhengfang's third son's disappearance this morning, Lu Yuanshan became more certain of this idea. Who would have the guts to kidnap the son of the Minister of Revenue? Maybe it's the person in front of him.

He glanced at Grand Tutor Xie, Shi Minghan, and Feng Huaiyu, and saw that they were drinking tea as if nothing had happened. He thought that they must know something, it must be like this.

The prince has already extended an invitation to him. A huge opportunity is before him. If he cannot seize it, then all these years in the officialdom would have been in vain.

Besides, during the morning court session the day before yesterday, Su Zhengfang had taken advantage of his misfortune and was determined to kill me. He had already been unkind and unjust. Now that the opportunity for revenge was right in front of me, how could I let it go?

So, Lu Zhengfang stood up without hesitation, knelt on the ground again, took out a booklet from his arms, handed it to Qin Hao, and said seriously: "Your Highness, this is some evidence that Su Zhengfang embezzled the national treasury that I have collected over the years. Please take a look."

Qin Hao took the booklet in his hand, flipped through it casually, and found that it was an account book. It recorded in detail the evidence that Su Zhengfang had falsely reported and concealed accounts in the past two years, and even instructed others to falsify accounts and embezzle the national treasury.

The more Qin Hao read, the more frightened he became, his expression changing from gloomy to bright. In the end, he became so furious that he slammed the table, stood up, and threw the account book to the ground.

Xie An picked up the account book from the ground and was shocked after reading it. No wonder Qin Hao was so angry. He then handed the account book to Shi Minghan and Feng Huaiyu beside him.

After reading it, the three of them knelt on the ground and advised Qin Hao to kill Su Zhengfang, the evil villain.

At this time, Qin Hao's anger had subsided a lot. He asked several people to stand up and asked Lu Zhengfang directly: "Master Lu, are the data recorded in the account book true? Also, are you involved in it? Please tell me frankly."

"Your Highness, all the data recorded in the account book are true. I dare not hide anything. However, there may be many things that I don't know, so the actual amount of money embezzled by Su Zhengfang and his people from the national treasury may be far more than this. After all, they did all these things behind my back."

Lu Zhengfang did not dare to hide anything and told the truth: "I did not participate in the embezzlement of the national treasury, I did not collude with Su Zhengfang and others, and I did not embezzle any money from the national treasury. I am not the same kind of person as them."

"When I first took office as the Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, Su Zhengfang sent people to win me over, but I rejected them all. Later, when they saw that they failed to win me over, they began to suppress me. So even though I am the Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, my presence in the Ministry of Revenue is very low."
