Father, I am back to fight!

Chapter 96

Shangguan Xiong's fists clenched so tightly that they made a crackling sound. The sword was already broken, so he definitely couldn't return it. Doesn't this mean that he would have to compensate Qin Yu with 100,000 taels of silver!

He is really frustrated!

"The minister obeys the order!"

No matter how angry Shangguan Xiong was in his heart, he could not show it on his face and accepted the order respectfully!

Emperor Liang then looked at Zhao Feikun, who was kneeling beside him, and said in a cold voice, "The Zhao family has committed treason and defrauded the court. Their crimes are unforgivable! I hereby decree that the Zhao family be exterminated and all the proceeds be confiscated!"

"Ah! Your Majesty, please spare me! Your Majesty, please spare me! The Zhao family earned all their money through hard work. Most of the money was divided among the Prime Minister and the other gentlemen!"

When Zhao Feikun heard that Emperor Liang was going to execute the entire Zhao family, he screamed and roared.

He was being targeted by people all around him, so of course he wouldn't cover up for Shangguan Xiong and the others anymore.

"How dare you! You're about to die, yet you dare to frame an official from Daliang? Come on! Drag him down!"

Shangguan Xiong immediately pointed at Zhao Feikun and scolded him, then ordered the guards to drag Zhao Feikun away.

"Your Majesty! I propose that the matter of confiscating the Zhao family be handled by Prime Minister Shangguan!"

Qin Yu then continued, "Prime Minister Shangguan, the Zhao family has earned no less than 50 million taels of silver from the imperial court over the years. Even if they spent some of it, they would never have spent it all. Therefore, when you confiscate the Zhao family's assets, you must be very careful and cautious. Don't miss any silver!"

Ah!

Shangguan Xiong was stunned and looked at Qin Yu in shock!

The Zhao family earned no less than 50 million taels of silver from the imperial court. If I only seized 10 million taels, I would definitely not be able to report it!

This is forcing me to spit out all the silver I had swallowed before, and I have to find a way to make up for what other officials took!

"Your Highness! You!"

Shangguan Xiong looked at Qin Yu with gritted teeth.

Emperor Liang understood Qin Yu's intention and immediately ordered, "Let's do this according to the Crown Prince's wishes. I'm tired and I'm leaving!"

After saying this, Emperor Liang announced the adjournment of the court session and left with Kou Ying and the others.

At night, in the restaurant where the Beiliang delegation stayed.

"Imperial Master! Do we in Beiliang really have to hand over 100,000 war horses and Lake Bekaa to Daliang?"

Tuoba gritted his teeth.

"Shut up! I've taught you countless times that you're the Crown Prince of Beiliang. No matter what you do, you must be calm and composed. How can you handle such a big responsibility if you're so impulsive?"

"Compared to 100,000 war horses and Lake Bekaa, the most important thing is that we can return safely!"

"The people of Daliang are short-sighted! They have no grasslands, and the daily rations for 100,000 war horses are a terrifying number. If they take these 100,000 war horses, not only will they not be able to train powerful cavalry, but they will be dragged down by the war horses, further weakening the national strength!"

Hu Yanqing said coldly.

"I still refuse to accept this. That Qin Yu is a loser. If it weren't for his conspiracy and trickery, he would never be my opponent!"

Tuoba Meng said coldly.

"You are right, Qin Yu is indeed a waste! Your Highness, look at this!"

Hu Yanqing said coldly, then handed a secret letter to Tuoba Meng.

When Tuoba Meng saw the contents of the secret letter, his eyes were filled with shock and resentment. "Huh! This abominable Qin Yu, the poems he recited in Jinghua Palace were actually written by people like Li Bai, Du Fu, Bai Juyi, and Xin Qiji. He actually had the audacity to say that these poems were written by him!"

"Haha! Your Highness, you only noticed that Qin Yu's poems were fake, didn't you see anything else?"

Hu Yanqing asked back with a sneer.

"Emperor Master, what else?"

Tuoba Meng looked confused.

"This secret letter suddenly appeared in this restaurant. Although I don't know who sent it, I know that there is no unity within Daliang. The officials are scheming against each other, and the princes are also calculating against each other!"

"Such a Daliang is definitely not a match for my Beiliang!"

"Last time in Jinghua Palace, I didn't disrupt the political situation in Daliang. This time, I will definitely cause chaos in the political situation in Daliang!"

Hu Yanqing said coldly.

"Emperor Master! What are you going to do?"

Tuoba Meng asked in a deep voice.

"According to the timeline, the 100,000 war horses and Lake Beka should have been delivered to Daliang. Someone, hurry and deliver a message to the palace. The Daliang Crown Prince won the contest against our Beiliang with someone else's poetry. It was an unfair victory, but I, the Lord of Beiliang, will not take it to heart!"

"However, Daliang wants to have another competition with Beiliang!"

Hu Yanqing said coldly.

The person who sent this letter hoped to make a fuss about the competition in Jinghua Palace and severely attack Qin Yu!

But he refused to do so. Instead, he openly told Emperor Liang that he knew Qin Yu's poems were forged, letting Emperor Liang know that someone was secretly having an affair with him!

Then, he proposed to compete with Daliang again. This time, he was sure that he could defeat Daliang completely!

Once he captures Hutou Pass in Daliang, he will take out this secret letter, which will definitely cause an uproar!
