After being dressed as an old lady and having her mind read, the capital city went crazy
Chapter 51 Leaving the Palace and Donating Again 52
[Your Majesty, are you trying to steal the compensation that the He family gave me? This is the compensation that my Mingyu got for ruining her life. You shouldn't do this to me if you are a human being!]
In the court...
It was so quiet that you could even hear your heartbeat.
The legs of all the civil and military officials were trembling, for they were afraid that Emperor Wu would not kill Shen Yunyue, but would use them, the old Karas, as a scapegoat.
Emperor Wu pressed his eyebrows.
He was afraid that he would not live long enough to see the day when others would plot against him.
I'm going to be pissed off to death by this hateful woman before the Spring Festival.
Could it be that this woman attracted my attention?
Think of it...
He comforted himself with a few words because Shen Yunyue was the wife of his most beloved younger brother He Jinnian.
"Minister Lin, settle these accounts."
After Emperor Wu comforted himself, his voice became much softer.
"Master Shen must not suffer any loss."
The Minister of Revenue Lin Muyou hurried forward and responded. He picked up the list of accounts and read it again and again.
Good guy...
Today I finally got my eyes opened.
It was the first time in my life that I saw so many strange expenses, and I couldn't help but want to pull Shen Yunyue to work in the Ministry of Households.
Even a temporary job is not bad.
...How many names can be inventable with this mind?
Other officials from the Ministry of Revenue also helped to settle the accounts.
There was a smile in Emperor Wu's eyes.
"Master Shen, are you satisfied now?"
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Shen Yunyue smiled with a flattering look on her face.
When the prince saw that Shen Yunyue had finished her business, he stepped forward and said:
"Father, will He Desheng continue to beat me?"
Emperor Wu's face turned cold.
"Take him away. The Black Armor Guards will be in charge of the investigation."
There was no need to explain clearly, the Black Armor Guards naturally understood what the emperor meant.
The prince nodded.
He cleared his throat and recounted the disaster situation in the capital and its surrounding areas.
The words have not yet fallen.
The old officials all breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately they wore patched clothes in the morning.
I’m afraid they’ll be asked to donate again.
The prince looked at Shen Yunyue thoughtfully, "Father, I suggest that you raise funds from the ministers in the court."
There was silence in the court.
No one’s money comes from the strong wind.
People were even more reluctant to spend money.
Long Yizi took the lead in donating 5,000 taels of silver.
Shen Yunyue gritted her teeth and said, "Your Majesty, I am willing to donate half of the compensation in the name of He Mingyu."
"We will donate another 5,000 taels of silver to the palace."
Emperor Wu's eyes lit up.
"Well done, I said Lord Shen is indeed the mascot of my Great Zhou."
"What about the other beloved ones?"
After Emperor Wu called out, all the other ministers remained silent, as if they were deaf and dumb, holding their breath for fear that Emperor Wu would call out to them.
And posed at the same time.
When Emperor Wu got angry, several of the most senior dukes and marquises collectively banged their heads against the pillars.
Others can then donate some money appropriately.
The routine is too familiar.
Shen Yunyue picked her ears, and no one spoke.
She couldn't help but complain:
[Alas. I think the emperor is handsome and has the majesty of an emperor. But his method is not cruel enough. When the country is in trouble, every citizen has a responsibility. These ministers are all pretending to be deaf. ]
Guagua disagrees, [Maybe there will be difficulties?]
Emperor Wu sighed softly.
The ministers in the court did not dare to say a word, and were annoyed at Shen Yunyue for being too talkative.
[Is Xia An Taifu in trouble? ]
【Yes, I have. 】
Xia An was so touched, this little melon is a good one.
Emperor Wu felt a sinking feeling in his heart, it seemed that his subjects were indeed in trouble.
[What's the problem?] Shen Yunyue asked curiously: [Is the concubine asking to buy jewelry, or is the shop at home not enough?]
[The concubine did not make a fuss about buying jewelry. But his son hooked up with the housekeeper and secretly took away all the silver and valuables.]
【This kid is a talent. 】
Guagua agrees:
[Who made Master Xia a miser? If he doesn't spend money, someone will naturally spend it for him.]
[The accounts in the mansion are all fake, the boxes in the storeroom are all empty. The valuable ornaments in the house are all defective. ]
Xia An was shocked by this.
He looked at Shen Yunyue with resentment.
That look seemed to make Shen Yunyue swallow back what she had just said.
[What are you looking at me for, old pervert? Can you see a flower or a silver ingot? If you have the time, you might as well donate some silver to please the emperor. Leave a good impression in front of the emperor.]
[Your daughter was soon given a slash of scarlet by the Emperor.]
[It was her bad luck that she was foolishly instigated to give the emperor a love drug. The emperor was unable to get out of bed.]
Emperor Wu stared at Xia An thoughtfully.
Xia An's heart skipped a beat.
"Your Majesty. I am willing to donate two thousand taels of silver."
[Teacher Xia really had no money. These two thousand taels of silver were his private savings. His wife and children teamed up to steal from his private storehouse, leaving only half a basket of copper coins.]
Emperor Wu nodded, thinking that Xia An was sensible.
[But he has food.] Shen Yunyue lied again. [Enough for the Xia family to eat for twenty years.]
Xia An's heart was in pieces.
He is so miserable.
Couldn't Shen Yunyue say a few less words?
Emperor Wu immediately pricked up his ears and stared at Shen Yunyue like a dog staring at a meat bun.
【Taifu Xia hid a lot of food in his farm in the suburbs.】
[You don't want to make money from the national disaster, do you? ]
Master Xia was so frightened that his knees knocked against the floor. "Your Majesty, I still have some food to donate."
His heart is bleeding...
Cursing silently:
Shen Yunyue!
You old shrew are so wicked.
His eyes were so resentful that even Shen Yunyue became suspicious.
[Who is Xia Taifu doing this for? It's as if I'm a heartless man.]
Guagua is very gossipy:
【Old Xia likes you. 】
[Eh. I am sorry. Am I crazy? Is it that Master Long is not young enough? Is it that Governor Ling is not cool enough?
Or is it that the young man is not passionate enough? He has to act passionately in love with the old man who looks like an old man. 】
Following her soul-searching.
The courtiers didn't care that there was a knife hanging over their heads and began to pinch themselves to hold back their laughter.
Hu Yong was almost injured from holding it in.
Master Xia's face suddenly turned dark. Why would he fall in love with Shen Yunyue at his age?
But no one heard his voice...
Blood loss.
Emperor Wu frowned, he had never felt so happy.
These old foxes.
Shen Yunyue would have to take charge of it. He thought that He Jinnian might have been unable to bear it and let his wife get the order from Longge to help Da Zhou.
"Minister Lin, please write down the amount of donation made by Master Xia."
"The minister obeys the order."
Minister Lin immediately took the pen, ink, paper and inkstone and began to calculate.
Someone nearby handed over an abacus.
The sound of him fiddling with the abacus fell into the ears of civil and military officials, and it sounded like a death threat.
"Duke Zhang."
Duke Zhang is old, with white hair and beard.
Relying on the fact that he had followed the previous emperor for a long time, he was able to make the emperor speechless.
He shrugged his shoulders with a poor look on his face, "Your Majesty, this is all I have. If Your Majesty likes something, feel free to move."
His family is different.
Everyone knows that Duke Zhang’s mansion is extremely poor.
Even the mice passing by couldn't bear to eat it.
"You don't have to." Emperor Wu did not intend to ask him to donate money, after all, his family was large.
Have children when your children and grandchildren are fine.
There is no ambitious descendant, and all of them are here to make up the numbers.
Everyone thought:
Now Shen Yunyue has nothing to say.
[Oh my, the Zhang family is all pale and skinny. What are they eating? The watery soup is deadly.]
【So pitiful. 】
Duke Zhang proudly concealed the look in his eyes.
The court officials showed rare confusion.
Why does Duke Zhang live his life like this? What is he trying to achieve?
Emperor Wu sighed softly, "Cao Dechong."
[Wow. This old guy is a pervert among perverts.]
What……?
Cao Dechong: “…”
Is he hallucinating?
Shen Yunyue called him a pervert.
Everyone stared at Cao Dechong with scrutiny, thinking, "You, the Imperial Censor, are always the one impeaching people whenever you disagree with me."
Hum hum……
Today, you wait.
The ministers who were watching the show all pricked up their ears.
[The old man lives such a poor life that he has laid all his silver under the bluestone floor. Even the cracks in the wall are filled with gold and silver. Wow, he is simply the best of the perverts. ]
Duke Zhang’s eyes went dark.
In my entire life, I have never been belittled like this.
Today I am speechless. His mother opened the door for me and I am speechless. I am home speechless.
How... did she know that?
Guagua let out a shrill scream:
[Host. You have discovered the secret of Duke Zhang's family. You are so greedy and have no sense of public morality. Will you go to the Duke's mansion to dig the ground in the middle of the night? If you are discovered by Duke Zhang, will he kill you to death? ]
Emperor Wu took a deep breath.
With Shen Yunyue's untouchable style, she would definitely be able to climb over the wall in the middle of the night.
Shen Yunyue pursed her lips and smiled:
[It doesn't matter. He's dying anyway, so he can't do anything to me? ]
Guagua nodded.
[Yes. Let's see, Duke Zhang will die tonight.]
Duke Zhang is most afraid of death.
People who love money usually fear death.
When I heard this, I was stunned.
His throat was beating like a bellows, and he pointed in the direction of Shen Yunyue. His eyes were bigger than copper bells.
Shen Yunyue didn't notice and continued to ask Guagua:
"Is he going to die tonight?"
Guagua screamed:
[That's not right. I'm going to die soon. What should I do...? ]
As soon as Shen Yunyue looked up, she saw Hu Yong rushing over. Duke Zhang fell to the ground, and Gao Wuyong hurriedly shouted, "Call the imperial physician over."
The black-armored guards carried Duke Zhang out.
After a while, someone came in.
"Your Majesty, Duke Zhang has passed away."
All the civil and military officials were shocked. What was going on between Shen Yunyue and this idiot?
...The God of Dragon Pavilion.
Why are you so generous to them? Can't you share a little of your spying skills?
Everyone line up to even out...
[Tsk tsk. Guagua, Duke Zhang is dead. I hope it won't delay my climbing the wall and digging the ground at night.] Shen Yunyue said with a half-hearted regret, [He died without pain.]
[Luckily I died today. If I had died tomorrow I would have died in uneasiness.]
【Why? 】
While dealing with Duke Zhang's affairs, Shen Yunyue continued to watch melons.
We have to earn points for eating melons.
Be a melon eater, a melon eater soul, a melon eater master...
[Because his family was too stingy. They had money but were reluctant to spend it. They cooked mushrooms picked in the fall at night. Everyone was knocked down and poisoned by the mushrooms. More than half of them died. A small number of people were catching ghosts...]
Civil and military officials:...
It seems that Duke Zhang only makes money but doesn't spend money.
The people are down there, and the money is underground.
