The whole family travels through the book, the plot is broken but the characters are not

Chen Su's body was shaking like a fallen leaf in the autumn wind.

He had just arrived in Los Angeles, and his bright future had just begun. He still had a lot of things to do, and he couldn't die.

Emperor Zhaowen was deeply shocked by Fang Xuanren's repeated words of "he deserves to be killed".

He knew everything Fang Xuanren said.

He didn't even need to look at the evidence provided by Fang Xuanren.

Chen Su cannot withstand investigation.

But Chen Su did all these things for him, and he was his own uncle. If something really happened, his mother would nag him again.

"Master Fang's words are too harsh. What Chen Su did..."

Emperor Zhaowen could not continue speaking and could not help but look at Chen Su with resentment. How could he do it so blatantly?

"Your Majesty, I have all the evidence of Chen Su's guilt in my possession. Your Majesty may have someone investigate. Furthermore, I have another memorial to make."

Fang Xuanren looked at Chen Su with scorn in his eyes.

Chen Su just felt cold sweat breaking out.

"I have discovered that, in addition to the gifts he received publicly, Chen Su secretly accepted bribes totaling 425,000 taels of silver, of which 350,000 taels were given to the Laiyang Pavilion by Chen Su."

As Fang Xuanren finished speaking, there were a few exclamations in the court, and then it fell into dead silence.

Emperor Zhaowen did not react. He did not understand why Chen Su would rather give the money to the brothel than to himself.

He didn't understand, but all the officials did.

Chen Su was a small prefect, but he spent a huge amount of money to maintain a brothel. There must be a lot of leverage and secrets of court officials in that brothel.

Ruan Xinzhao was killed and Ruan Bai fell and suffered a stroke, all of which happened in Laiyang Pavilion.

When Ruan Bai suffered a stroke, Chen Su became the Minister of Revenue.

That’s so cruel!

Chen Su collapsed to the ground: "I am innocent..."

"Master Chen is crying out for justice? Your Majesty, this is the account of Chen Su accepting bribes and his dealings with Laiyang Pavilion."

Fang Xuanren bowed and presented the evidence and account books.

Chen Su stared at Fang Xuanren fiercely.

He didn't understand why this man would keep targeting him since he had no grudge against Fang Xuanren.

Fang Xuanren silently mouthed something to Chen Su, and Chen Su dared not speak anymore.

Fang Xuanren was talking about "Xiao Lian'er".

If the Second Young Master had not wanted to spare Chen Su's life, he would have told everyone how Chen Su had ordered the prostitute Xiao Lian'er to murder Ruan Xinzhao and knocked Ruan Bai down with a hidden weapon, causing him to have a stroke.

However, it is enough for the Duke of Ying to take action against Chen Su at the moment, but it is not known whether the forces behind Chen Su can save his life.

Chen Su finally understood the feeling of having trouble speaking out.

It was not his idea that Xiao Lian'er killed Ruan Xinzhao on her own initiative.

But who would believe it?

Even if Ruan Bai lost his position as Minister of Revenue, he could not offend the Duke of Yingguo's Mansion just because he wanted to.

He could no longer deny his relationship with Laiyang Pavilion, so he could only try his best to deny his relationship with Xiaolian'er.

As the Minister of Revenue, Zhang Jingzhi had Chen Su as his subordinate, so he had to express his position.

"Your Majesty, please thoroughly investigate Chen Su and restore justice to the government."

Cen Tao also stood up and said, "I second the motion."

"I second the proposal."

"I second the proposal."

……

Chen Su knew that his official career was over, and now he only wanted to save his life.

"I am guilty, I admit my guilt, but I have my own reasons."

Chen Su began to cry and complain that when Emperor Zhaowen ascended the throne, the national treasury was empty, and the emperor of a country was actually worried about money. Empress Dowager Chen was in weak health and did not even have the best tonic.

Both of them were his closest relatives, and he couldn't bear to see them suffer.

Chen Su avoided the important issues and never mentioned the matter of Laiyang Pavilion, but admitted to everything else.

Emperor Zhaowen felt a little softened by his crying. After all, this was his uncle, and he gave all the things he received to himself and his mother.

The court officials cursed in their hearts that he was so shameless.

Chen Su's ability to tell lies with open eyes is really eye-opening.

It is true that the national treasury is empty, but Emperor Zhaowen and Empress Dowager Chen have suffered nothing!

Emperor Zhaowen even wanted to sacrifice all the people to enrich himself.

How many wax apples, which cost thousands of dollars each, did he eat?

Qian Weiwen looked at Emperor Zhaowen, who looked both aggrieved and moved, as if he had really suffered a lot, and felt disgusted.

But he still suppressed his nausea and looked at Emperor Zhaowen, but he asked Chen Su.

"Sir Chen, you reported Yao Qiming for dereliction of duty back then, but the Censor-in-Chief investigated and found no evidence of dereliction of duty."

Chen Su's teeth were so painful from biting them, but he could only endure it.

"I misunderstood Master Yao that day. Master Yao was wronged. It's my fault."

"You, ah, you are putting the emperor in an unjust position, do you know that?"

Qian Weiwen looked heartbroken.

Wei Ming and Yang Ziliang: The eyes look at the nose, and the nose looks at the heart.

Finally, Yang Ziliang spoke.

"Your Majesty has been deceived and nearly lost a good minister. Fortunately, there is still a chance to make amends. Your Majesty, Minister Qian just recommended Yao Qiming to take on the position of Shangyang Prefecture Governor. I second the motion!"

Emperor Zhaowen looked at Yang Ziliang and then at Qian Weiwen. Both of them looked like they wanted the best for him, which made Emperor Zhaowen want to vomit blood.

Wei Ming also stood up and said, "I second the motion."

The Prime Minister spoke, and all officials responded.

Emperor Zhaowen looked at Chen Su and agreed reluctantly.

Yao Qiming was reinstated as the prefect of Shangyang Prefecture and took office today.

Chen Su was stripped of his official position, but because of his loyalty, he was no longer held criminally responsible...

All officials in Shangyang Prefecture who were involved in serious illegal activities were sentenced to death, imprisonment, or exile according to the law.

Fan Yunchuan, whose crimes were extremely serious, was sentenced to immediate execution.

The main culprit, Chen Su, had his property confiscated, was banned from serving as an official for life, and was not allowed to be granted a title as a royal relative.

The people of Shangyang Prefecture rushed to report that the corrupt officials had been punished, which naturally made them feel vented.

But what made them even more excited was that Lord Yao Qiming was coming back.

They knew before that Lord Yao was a good and capable official, but Lord Ying and Lord Zhou before Lord Yao were also good. They had not yet deeply felt the dark clouds gathering over Shangyang Prefecture.

With Chen Su as a comparison, the people of Shangyang Prefecture realized that not every official is honest.

Amidst the hustle and bustle, no one noticed that the 10,000 Jiyang troops who had originally stayed in Wuping County quietly retreated to Jiyang.

When Yao Qiming took office, the people lined the streets to welcome him.

Passing by the Fugui Restaurant on Xing'an Avenue, Yao Qiming looked up at the window on the second floor.

The handsome young man stood there with a smile on his face.

Yao Qiming's depressed mood, which had lasted until May, suddenly brightened up.

That person would never do anything to harm the people.

Even if he wanted to take back what belonged to him, what he wanted was a prosperous and peaceful Dayu, not a Dayu riddled with holes.

Then just do your own part.

Li Jixin felt relieved when he saw Yao Qiming's raised lips.

He was really worried that Yao Qiming would get stuck in a rut and it would cost him a lot of time to talk to him.

The people my father associates with are indeed quite good...

Lu Changping bought two shops from Fan Tong, one of which became Mingxianglou and the other became Lu's Trading Company.

Lu's Trading Company not only sells novelty goods shipped from Yuezhou Prefecture, but also high-concentration liquor from the north, excellent-tasting wine, marinades that were all the rage last year, and fresher hot pot bases.

How to use hot pot base?

Go to Fugui Restaurant and take a look.

Fugui Restaurant is doing very good business because of its braised dishes and hot pot.

Liquor and wine also make many people linger.

Where do these goods come from?

Bought it from Lu's Trading Company.

Where does Lu's Trading Company get its goods from?

Jiyang!

Shopkeeper Jiang looked at Shopkeeper Wang with envy because his Nanyuan Xinxiang Pavilion was out of stock.

However, before Manager Jiang could feel lost for a few days, the Lu family caravan delivered the latest jewelry, accessories and various spices from Southeast Asia.

Shopkeeper Jiang opened the door of Xinxiang Pavilion with great pride.

Lu's Trading Company can operate without any renovation, but Mingxianglou needs major changes.

Mingxianglou is now the joint property of Lu Fugui and Lu Yanyan. It is also their first store after leaving Luocheng, and both of them attach great importance to it.

Lu Fugui and Dalin stayed in Shangyang Mansion and were responsible for the decoration of Mingxiang Tower.
