Chapter 87 The Prince Confiscated His Property
The prince came out of the palace in a hurry with his men to confiscate the house. They had to hurry. My eldest brother and his men had set out for three days, and there were still two days to prepare food and fodder. The first thing was the issue of money.
Other princes may feel that confiscating property is a thankless and offensive job, but the crown prince is not afraid of offending people! If he can cause dissatisfaction among the civil and military officials in the court, and then report him, he may be deposed by his father. [It is best for the eldest brother to take the throne, after all, he has the best relationship with the eldest brother.]
The prince's first target was the seventh prince's maternal family. The seventh prince's uncle was the Minister of Rites, a lucrative position. If there was no lack of evidence, the prince would not dare to touch him, but the problem was that the evidence was solid.
If the little prince had given the evidence to Emperor Xuanyuan early on, he might have had to think about it. After all, it was the family of his youngest son's grandfather, and he had to handle it privately.
Xuanyuan Ruize knew Emperor Xuanyuan too well, so he didn't plan to tell him whose house he was going to rob from the beginning.
"Everyone, I leave this to you. Whether the soldiers on the frontier can have enough food and win the battle depends on you!" The young prince said proudly to the officials who came with him.
"We obey your order." The little prince's words made those who were careless at first perk up. After all, it was a matter of the border, who would dare to let it go?
Then the little prince had someone tie up a recliner and sat in front of the Minister of Rites.
You can also hear the conversation inside: "How dare you! Do you know where you are? This is the seventh prince's maternal family. Don't you want to live?"
There was a lot of noise inside, but the little prince was unmoved. He just watched the guards carrying boxes of gold, silver, jewelry, and many antique paintings and calligraphy from the mansion, which made the little prince drool.
"Wow, this is almost as much as father's private treasury!" Now it's safe. When father sees these things, he will no longer defend the seventh brother's in-laws. A small minister of rites actually has so many jewels at home. Anyone can tell that it's not normal!
The young prince looked at the pile of treasures in front of him, feeling proud in his heart. He turned to the officials behind him and said, "Send all these treasures to the palace, and there must be no mistakes!" Then, he looked coldly at the residence of the Minister of Rites, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
At this time, the Third Prince of the Ministry of Revenue also rushed over. Seeing so much gold, silver and jewelry, he quickly ordered the people around him to record it.
"You must remember this quickly, and you cannot make any mistakes."
Several officials from the Ministry of Revenue led by the Third Prince quickly took out their notebooks and pens and began to count.
After a while, nothing was lifted out anymore.
"Your Highness, we have fulfilled our mission and seized one million taels of gold, three million taels of silver, 10 boxes of gold and silver jewelry, 5 boxes of ancient books, and finally 100 bolts of precious cloth from the home of the Minister of Rites."
The little prince smiled and said, "This Minister of Rites is really amazing! This storehouse is almost bigger than mine."
"Your Highness, we dug deep into the ground to find these things. We discovered that there is a secret room in the Minister of Rites' house! Most of the things were found in the secret room," an official who went in to work showed off his achievements.
"Oh? Did they really dig three feet into the ground?" The little prince looked at the official who was speaking, with a half-smile on his face.
"Your Highness..." The man was stunned. This was just an exaggeration! Your Highness would not take it seriously, right?
However, the prince ignored him and walked into the Minister of Rites' residence and looked around.
"Isn't there any digging deep into the ground?" the little prince murmured softly as he walked.
Suddenly, he stopped, turned to look at the guard beside him, and said, "Come here, bring me some hoes."
The guards looked at each other, somewhat confused, but immediately carried out the prince's order and quickly ran out to find a hoe.
Soon, the guards came back with a few hoes.
"Your Highness, the hoe is here." A guard respectfully handed the hoe to the little prince.
The young prince took the hoe and said to the other guards, "Come, each of you take one and dig up all the trees and rockery here."
"Yes, Your Highness!" Although everyone was full of doubts, they knew the prince's character very well, and all they had to do was obey his orders. So everyone picked up their hoes and started digging.
In fact, everyone felt that the prince was worrying too much. So many things had already been copied, how could anyone still buy them?
The prince's idea was that not a single tree or stone should be left behind.
It wasn't long before someone started shouting "We dug it up!" It turned out there was a large secret room under the yard, and more things were taken out than before.
The third prince of the Ministry of Revenue was very happy as the food and fodder problem was solved.
The next morning, the young prince presented the evidence he had collected to Emperor Xuanyuan, who was furious and immediately threw the Minister of Rites into jail and ordered a thorough investigation of the case.
Soon after, the entire court was shaken and many officials were dismissed.
The Seventh Prince and others were about to plead with Emperor Xuanyuan, but the Imperial Concubine did not dare to speak!
It’s just a pity that such a good helper wasted. The Seventh Prince’s chances of ascending to the throne will be reduced in the future.
Anyway, no matter what the Seventh Prince and others think, the Crown Prince is happy.
Since the confiscation of the property, the young prince seemed to have discovered a new world, and the third prince also began to get closer and closer to Xuanyuan Ruize. When you come to the East Palace, you can also run into the second prince.
"Hey, third brother! Why are you here again?" The second prince said dissatisfiedly. Why did this third brother start to compete with him for the sixth brother?
