The eldest son is fierce

There was dead silence in the hall.

***, Qi Wendao and a group of ministers were all dumbfounded when they saw the old man and two children kneeling in front of Tang Yi.

What's going on? Isn't this to accuse Tang Yi and prove that Tang Yi is harming the people?

Why did she kneel down to Tang Yi? Seeing Tang Yi was as exciting as seeing her ancestor.

Even Emperor Yanwen, who was sitting on the dragon throne, blinked his eyes to make sure he was not mistaken.

The witness Jiang Zheng found knelt down to Tang Yi!

Only Tang Yi was not too surprised by this scene.

The relocation benefits are so good, who would be dissatisfied unless some people in the planning area want to raise the price?

Jiang Zheng was quite unlucky. The person he found with great effort was someone who knew what was right and wrong and was grateful.

"Please stand up, old man. This is all due to the grace of His Majesty. I am just doing my job according to your order." Tang Yi winked at the old man and helped him up with a smile.

"Yes, yes, it is Your Majesty's great grace,"

The old man immediately understood Tang Yi's reminder and immediately knelt down in front of Emperor Yanwen with the two young men. "Your Majesty is wise. You sent a good official like Mr. Tang to me. I thank you, Your Majesty. Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The two young men in sackcloth also kowtowed deeply.

Emperor Yanwen subconsciously clenched his fists, thinking, "I didn't do anything, but in the end all the credit was given to me."

This bastard, my love for him is really worth it, he is quite capable.

"No need to thank me, this is all thanks to Lord Tang. I am just the one giving the orders."

Emperor Yanwen immediately put on airs and raised his hand to ask the three old men to stand up: "Stand up and answer. I think the entire court wants to kill your savior now. Now only you can save him."

Hearing the emperor's words, the old man jumped up and stood in front of Tang Yi: "Who? Who dares to touch my master? Whoever dares to touch my master, I will fight him to the death!"

He was very frightened, but having lived and struggled all his life, he knew what opportunity was.

This is an opportunity to follow the dragon, how can I miss it?

When the two young men saw the old man standing in front of Tang Yi, they both stood beside Tang Yi.

Seeing this scene, all the civil and military officials in the court who had come to their senses had ugly expressions on their faces. They looked at the censor Jiang Zheng as if they wanted to cut him into pieces.

Is this the witness you were talking about?

What we want to prove is that Tang Yi is lawless and causing trouble for Kyoto, but you directly prove that he has become the savior of Kyoto!

Jiang Zheng's scalp was tingling as well. He had this man specially selected and captured. Now that he was old, his house was blown up. Who wouldn't be angry?

His purpose was to launch a surprise attack and catch Tang Yi off guard.

However, he didn't expect that the people he called would catch them all off guard.

"Old man, are you mistaken? Yes, you must be mistaken."

Jiang Zheng was already filled with hatred, but now he tried hard to suppress his anger and make his face look friendly.

"Old man, this guy blew up your house and forced you to live in a military tent. How can he be your benefactor?"

"Tell me, did Tang Yi threaten you? Tell the truth, and His Majesty and the officials will make the decision for you."

The old man was quite old and naturally a shrewd man. At this time, he had already realized that they were captured to help the officials deal with Tang Yi.

That is their benefactor, what can they do about it?

He instantly became furious and retorted without giving any face.

"Sir, your words are really interesting. We were captured by you for no apparent reason. We have had no contact with our benefactor, so how could he threaten us?"

"Also, Lord Tang did blow up our house, but he did it well, brilliantly, and with a bang."

Seeing the old man giving Tang Yi a thumbs-up in a flamboyant manner, Jiang Zheng and the other ministers all turned pale as if they had seen a ghost.

Tang Yi blew up your house and left you homeless, and you still praise him for doing a good job?

Crazy? !

"Hey, old man, why did Tang Yi... um, why did he explode so loudly?"

Emperor Yanwen was also very curious.

The elimination of the Three Kingdoms spies in Jixiang Street was a temporary plan organized by Wei Yuan and commanded by Tang Yi. These people were forcibly expelled by the Jinyiwei almost completely without their knowledge.

In addition, seeing their own houses being bombed into ruins with their own eyes would definitely cause public outrage, and even in serious cases, it might even lead to riots.

Jiang Zheng launched a surprise attack because he knew this very well.

But no one expected that Tang Yi would suppress public opinion and anger in such a short period of time, and make everyone go along with it.

How did he do that?

"Your Majesty, my master said that it is because our Jingzhao Prefecture wants to rebuild the South City."

The old man knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to Emperor Yanwen, saying, "Blowing up our house is the first step in building South City. This step is called... yes, it's called demolition."

"Although you blew up our house, you still have to collect three taels of silver per square meter based on the size of each household's house..."

"My house is about 60 square meters, and the demolition compensation is 200 taels."

"That's two hundred taels of silver! I've never seen so much silver in my entire life."

"Because we had no money, my eldest son, who was already 30 years old, still hadn't found a good wife. Now with the demolition compensation, my eldest, second and third sons have found wives together and will be able to get married soon."

"If it weren't for Lord Tang, my Liang family might have been extinct. Your Majesty, do you think Lord Tang is our living Bodhisattva?"

Hearing this, everyone looked at Tang Yi in shock.

Each household cost at least three hundred taels, and if more than three hundred houses were destroyed or damaged, the total would be nearly one hundred thousand taels.

He spent 100,000 taels of silver to appease a bunch of insignificant peasants? Is he really that rich?

Is this a waste of money?

As a result, Tang Yi pointed at them and said to the old man: "Old man, not only should we thank His Majesty, but all the civil and military officials in the court should also thank you."

"They contributed money and effort to the demolition compensation for our Nancheng District renovation."

When the old man heard this, he immediately bowed to the entire court and said, "Thank you, my Lords! You are all good people!"

When the ministers heard this, their faces turned black in an instant, and they were so angry that they almost vomited blood.

I almost forgot that Tang Yi helped the emperor collect the debts owed to the national treasury and got a large sum of money from them.

The money was used here, so they helped a lot!

For a moment, everyone felt extremely disgusted.

In the end, they found out that the people they wanted to deal with were all helped by the enemy!

"Impossible, this is impossible..."

Jiang Zheng's face was grim, his eyes red with anger. "Such an important matter, why wasn't there any news? And you have three hundred taels in your hands, how could you possibly be alive and well?"

Every person in the slums of South City holds three hundred taels of silver. Those people in Kyoto who value money over their lives would have already swept through South City.

The old man glanced at Jiang Zheng and slowly took out a piece of paper from his pocket.

"It's normal that you don't know, because we all signed a confidentiality agreement."

"Right now, only those of us who are in charge know about this. Even our wives and children don't know about it yet."

"Who would go around telling everyone they're rich for no reason? Isn't that insane?"

In the Zi Zheng Hall, the ministers were stunned again.
