The eldest son is fierce

Emperor Yanwen's eyes suddenly lit up. This is possible. I can make money again.

Qi Wendao and other ministers found Tang Yi's confident look ridiculous.

It's already this late, why are you still pretending?

Want to scare us? Make us back off? Dream on!

You want to raid our house? We'll kill you next!

"Oh, even at this time, the loyal and brave marquis can still remain calm. I admire you, I admire you."

Jiang Dong sneered, then bowed to Emperor Yanwen and said, "Your Majesty, now that everyone is here, please issue an order to begin inspecting all warehouses in the South Granary."

However, before he could finish his words, Tang Yi's voice came over: "Wait."

Everyone looked at him, only to see him raise one hand with a serious expression.

He swept his eyes over everyone and then said righteously, "Everyone, to be honest, this is a trap I set, but it's not for you. I set it for ***."

"You are not the prey I want to catch. I really don't want to see you fall into my trap."

"Really? You're helping *** avoid disaster, you know?"

"Take my advice, apologize to me and beg for mercy, how about we just put this matter behind us for now?"

It is impossible to reveal it. The show has already begun, how can it be revealed just like that?

What's more, this group of old thieves are determined to kill him, so why should he be polite?

He said this solely to stabilize the resolve of these old villains, because he had long seen that many of them were already guilty and did not dare to get too close.

How does this work?

In order to kill me, you even used this idiot scumbag dad. Would it be unfair of me if I don't make you suffer?

Sure enough, after hearing his words, the ministers who were originally a little wavering became firm in their minds.

Haha, this guy is really bluffing!

He was scared, he was cowardly, he began to show weakness and beg for mercy!

"Lord Zhongyong is wrong. We are doing this for the people of Jingdu and the country of Da Yan. We are not targeting any particular person."

"That's right. Nancang is the largest granary in Kyoto. It concerns the lives of millions of people in Kyoto. There must be no mistakes."

"Your Majesty, please issue an order to open the warehouse for inspection immediately."

"If I don't go to hell, who will? If I die for the people of the world, it will be a worthy death!"

"..."

When Tang Yi provoked them, a group of ministers immediately became full of fighting spirit and vowed to kill Tang Yi while the opportunity arose.

Emperor Yanwen was a little confused when he saw the high morale of his ministers, and he looked at Tang Yi speechlessly.

He is worthy of being the person I favor. He can not only boost the morale of his own people, but also the morale of the enemy.

With just a few words, he made these ministers, who were originally feeling guilty, cry out in anger.

"In that case, then we will open the warehouse and inspect the grain."

Emperor Yanwen looked at Qi Wen and said, "Lord Qi, this warehouse inspection will be jointly conducted by the Censorate, the Ministry of Revenue, and the Imperial Court. You and Lord Jiang will personally oversee it. Tang Yi and I will not interfere and will only await the results."

"Don't worry, just make sure that the grain in the 132nd warehouse of the South Warehouse today is all dirt."

"Today, I will execute Tang Yi!"

"Otherwise, those of you who wish to share the same guilt as Lord Jiang, please prepare to have your property confiscated!"

After he finished speaking, Emperor Yanwen turned around and went into the South Warehouse.

"Your Majesty, we can't let them check!"

Tang Yi immediately started acting out, pretending to be extremely panicked. He followed behind Emperor Yanwen and said anxiously, "Your Majesty, Nancang is an important place. I don't trust them!"

"What if they check and it turns out to be fake, but the poisoning is real?"

"Your Majesty, this concerns the lives of millions of people in Kyoto. Please be cautious!"

Seeing Tang Yi following behind Emperor Yanwen, jumping up and down in anxiety, Qi Wendao and his group sneered.

"I was anxious. Haha, now I know I was anxious, but it's too late."

Jiang Dong sneered and said, "Everyone, whether we can kill the Tang thieves today and restore peace to Dayan is entirely up to us."

"Time waits for no man. The Ministry of Revenue, the Censorate, and the Imperial Court, three hundred men, divided into groups of thirty, must immediately conduct a comprehensive inspection of the 132 warehouses of the Southern Granary."

"If you find any granaries mixed with dirt, report it immediately."

After giving the order, Jiang Dong looked at Qi Wen and said, "Old Qi, let's go in too. With people from the Censorate following us, the Ministry of Revenue and the Imperial Court won't dare to make any moves."

"Now, we just need to keep an eye on His Majesty and Tang Yi. As long as nothing happens to His Majesty and Tang Yi, we will be victorious."

Qi Wendao and the Prime Minister's party all laughed when they heard this.

Tang Yi used the imperial guards to transport soil as food. He used the imperial guards that the emperor trusted the most. Who would believe that Emperor Yanwen was unaware of this?

They were not targeting Emperor Yanwen, but only Tang Yi, because they wanted Emperor Yanwen to use Tang Yi as a scapegoat.

A group of people immediately entered the South Warehouse with smiles on their faces.

However, as soon as they entered the South Warehouse, everyone was stunned.

In the Nancang courtyard, there was a pile of mud that was more than sixty or seventy feet high and more than ten feet wide.

It was all yellow mud brought back from dozens of miles outside the city.

"Damn it, the evidence is right in front of us. This time, thief Tang is dead."

"This is a trap set for the ***, and we're told not to fall into it? Bah!"

"Haha, let's see how he explains this time. I will definitely try my best not to laugh out loud."

"..."

In an instant, the group of people laughed even more happily.

Especially when they saw Tang Yizhen and Emperor Yanwen desperately explaining not far away, and Emperor Yanwen's face was so gloomy that water almost dripped out of it, the group of people suddenly became more cheerful.

As they approached, Tang Yi ran over to them, scratching his head and saying, "My Lords, please help me explain this to His Majesty."

"I brought this soil in to repair the South Warehouse..."

A group of people stared at him, their smiles full of amusement and mockery.

"Really? So Lord Tang is here to repair the South Warehouse."

"Oh, that was a misunderstanding. I thought this was the food that Lord Tang gave to the people of Kyoto."

"..."

A group of people were mocking him, their voices joking.

Do you believe that Nancang will be repaired?

Besides, why should we help you? We're waiting to kill you!

At this time, Emperor Yanwen stared at the mud mountain in front of him for a while, turned his head to look at Tang Jing who was standing timidly behind him, and spoke coldly.

"Tang Jing, tell me, has Tang Yi done anything truly treasonous?"

"What did he do... to the point where you, as his father, want to get rid of him at all costs?"

Tang Jing was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, I only do this for the Great Yan Empire..."

"Shut up!"

Emperor Yanwen interrupted coldly.

He turned around and stared down at Tang Jing. "Tang Jing, there's no need to flatter yourself. I know you better than you do."

"If it weren't for you and your precious eldest son, the trust between me and Tang Yi would be even deeper."

"Because of all the shit you two did, there's a huge rift between Tang Yi and me, even though we're supposed to be close friends."

"But, I won't do that anymore."
