A special forces soldier traveled through time and space to become a genius of literature and martia

The night was as dark as ink. In the study of the Ministry of Revenue of Yuan Ying, she tightly grasped the heavy stack of evidence. The evidence she had found and the evidence submitted by Luo Huaian showed that the amount of corruption in the Ministry of Works in recent years had reached more than 7.8 million taels.

The Ministry of Works was the most corrupt department. Some of the positions might not be very prominent, but they were considered lucrative by others! One of the officials in charge of the Ministry of Works was only a seventh-rank official in the Ministry of Works, but he actually embezzled more than 700,000 taels of silver.

The Ministry of Industry is in charge of engineering construction, palace construction, official road repairs, water conservancy and canal construction, etc. It is the top priority of national infrastructure, and most of the annual funding falls into the hands of the Ministry of Industry...

The flickering candlelight illuminated her resolute face. In her heart, there was a blazing flame of justice, but also a quietly spreading darkness of the unknown.

She stepped out of the Ministry of Revenue, intending to personally hand over the evidence to Lord Chu of the Censorate. At the critical moment of heading to the Censorate to reveal the truth, a burst of hurried footsteps broke the silence of the night.

Dozens of dark shadows approached silently like ghosts, the sharp blades in their hands glowing coldly in the moonlight.

Yuan Ying's heart trembled, and he reacted quickly, drawing his sword and engaging in a fierce fight with the sudden assassin. The sword flashed like lightning, cutting through the darkness, and every clash was accompanied by the harsh sound of metal colliding.

At the same time, Murong Xuanyi's carefully deployed secret guards appeared one after another at the same time.

Instantly, the sound of swords clashing filled the air, and the night was illuminated by the light of fierce battle.

Yuan Ying cooperated with the secret guards tacitly. His body was as agile as the wind and his sword skills were as sharp as thunder.

The assassins gradually fell into a disadvantage. Seeing that the situation was unfavorable, they gave a secret signal and tried to retreat.

However, Murong Xuanyi would never let them escape so easily. He led more guards to rush in from all directions and surrounded the assassins. A thrilling encirclement and suppression began, with swords and shadows, and blood everywhere.

In the end, all the assassins were subdued and the sudden crisis was resolved.

Yuan Ying panted, looked at Murong Xuanyi, pointed at the ten shadow guards and asked: "Your people?"

Murong Xuanyi smiled and said, "They are all your people now."

When Yuan Ying heard this, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then turned into deep gratitude. He actually did so much for her silently.

Murong Xuanyi said to Jiang Chong in a deep voice: "Take these assassins away and torture them severely. Make sure to force out the truth about the mastermind behind this."

As he finished speaking, the assassins bit the poisonous pills hidden between their teeth one after another and died instantly from the poison.

Obviously, this group of people are all well-trained Deadpools, which shows how strong the man's determination to kill Yuan Ying is.

Yuan Ying and Murong Xuanyi looked at each other and realized that things were far more complicated and difficult than they had imagined.

"Now that we have alerted the enemy, he will definitely take action." Yuan Ying analyzed.

"No matter what, I will protect you." Murong Xuanyi said in a firm tone.

The two men personally handed over the evidence they had to Lord Chu of the Censorate.

There will surely be a violent storm in the court tomorrow.

Compared with the calmness in the imperial palace, many officials in the capital were extremely terrified.

Especially those from the Ministry of Industry, they were almost scared to death.

…………

In the court

"I have a starting point."

Lord Chu from the Censorate was the first to step out.

"Accurate."

Emperor Kang Ren said softly, and Fu Quan beside him shouted sharply: "Approved!"

Lord Chu said in a loud voice:

"I impeach Minister of Works Li Zhengcheng and others for embezzling project funds!"

The Minister of Works, Lord Li, suddenly stood up in the queue and said, "You are slandering me! Your Majesty, I am innocent!"

Yuan Ying and Murong Xuanyi seemed to be watching this show coldly from the sidelines.

The memorial in Lord Chu's hand was handed to him by Yuan Ying himself. All the evidence of embezzlement was collected by him and Luo Huaian at the risk of their lives.

"Your Majesty, I have evidence of nine corrupt officials' corruption and embezzlement of money. Please judge!"

Lord Chu's voice echoed in the hall, and all the civil and military officials held their breath.

Now the Ministry of Revenue, the Censorate, and the Dali Temple have gathered all their strength to punish corrupt officials, and no one in the court dares to say a word.

Fuquan brought a pile of memorials to the dragon table.

After Emperor Kang Ren opened the memorial, a shocking number appeared before his eyes.

Nine corrupt officials in the Ministry of Works embezzled 11.8 million taels of silver...

Outrageous!

Snapped!

"The foundation of Daxia is being destroyed by you, a bunch of parasites!"

Emperor Kang Ren was so angry that he threw all the memorials to the ground and said, "Come here, throw these nine people into the prison and wait for your punishment!"

"Your Majesty, this is unjust! This is unjust?"

This great storm enveloped all officials in the court.

Yuan Ying and Murong Xuanyi looked at each other. They had only checked 7.8 million taels. How could there be an extra 4 million taels?

But they were secretly relieved. They didn't expect it to be so smooth.

The storm has subsided temporarily, but they know that this is just the tip of the iceberg.

…………

Outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation

"Your Majesty...I beg to see...Your Majesty..." There was an imperceptible tremor in the imperial concubine's voice.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor is busy inside and doesn't want to see you for the time being. Please go back..."

For the sake of her brother, she had to fight her way out even at the cost of her life.

"Since the emperor won't see me, I will kneel here forever!"

The imperial concubine's body trembled slightly, and she suddenly knelt on her knees with a plop, and knelt steadily on the hard tiles.

"My Lady Imperial Concubine, the Emperor has asked me to bring you a message. Your status is noble and you are a role model for the concubines in the harem. You really shouldn't ask about the affairs of the previous dynasty. Lord Li is Lord Li. You and him are brother and sister, and more importantly, the emperor and his subject."

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Your Majesty..." After being exhausted both physically and mentally, the Imperial Concubine fainted outside the Palace of Tranquil Longevity.

The palace servants were in chaos, and Fuquan was even more frightened. He quickly invited the emperor out.

Inside Yikun Palace

The Imperial Concubine slowly woke up and saw Emperor Kang Ren sitting beside the bed, holding her hand tightly, his eyes full of pity and helplessness.

"My beloved, although I am the emperor, I also have many difficulties that are difficult to talk about. I hope you can understand the greater good and sympathize with my difficulties."

He had long been wary of the Li family's dominance in the court, but he had been suffering from the lack of a suitable opportunity and leader.

At this time, Yuan Ying stepped forward and took the initiative to take on this important task. After receiving Yuan Ying's confidential letter, he made a prompt decision and secretly dispatched Jinyiwei to sneak into the dark and quietly collect solid evidence that could shake the foundation of the Li family.

Yuan Ying was a smart man. He knew to hand over all the evidence to Lord Chu of the Censorate. This move undoubtedly put Li Zhencheng in an unavoidable dilemma. He was able to withdraw cleverly and stay out of the matter without being criticized by the powerful officials.

The imperial concubine turned her head to the side angrily, with dissatisfaction and determination flashing in her eyes.

Emperor Kang Ren said helplessly: "I promise you, I will spare his life, but you must send him to the border as a punishment."

"The disturbance caused by my beloved concubine in the Yangxin Palace has been known to everyone in the former dynasty and the harem. It is said that you are meddling in government affairs and favoring your mother's family. If this matter is not handled properly, it will probably lead to a lot of criticism." Emperor Kang Ren revealed a bit of dissatisfaction in his words.

The Imperial Concubine could also hear some anger in Emperor Kang Ren's voice: "I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have lost my sense of proportion because of personal feelings. But please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

"I understand your heart, my beloved concubine. But the palace rules are strict and cannot be taken lightly. Since you have repented, I will follow your words. Remember, do not make any more mistakes. You should take good care of yourself! I will come to see you later." After saying this, he left the Yikun Palace.

When the Imperial Concubine heard what Emperor Kang Ren said, she knew that the matter was irreversible. In an instant, her hatred towards Yuan Ying surged like a tide and became increasingly severe.

She secretly swore to herself that she would make him suffer the torture of being torn into pieces to relieve the hatred in her heart.
