Your Highness, Jiangshan hires you

Xiao Luo heard that Xiao Mingyuan called him to stop. Regarding the current matter, he guessed it with his father's thoughts, and with the fact that he went out at the Longyin Mountain Summer Resort earlier, others may not know it. There is no doubt that Xiao Mingyuan I know that the layout and planning of this matter, every step, is within the plan of Dingwangfu.

Xiao Luan and Xiao Cheng who were standing by were startled for a moment, but neither of them was a fool. In the beginning, Xiao Luo was taken away by King Ding, and was promised the position of princess by King Ding. There have been many changes, and today's release undoubtedly confirmed the previous speculations.

While the Emperor was looking at the things presented by Xiao Luo, Xiao Luan said directly to Xiao Luo: "Prince Ding and Concubine Ding are really a coincidence, Father and Concubine sent people to Jiangnan Province yesterday, and Concubine Ding will do this today. An important report has been submitted."

Xiao Luo looked at Xiao Luan coldly, his tone did not fluctuate, and he said coldly: "It just so happens that I don't know, I just passed on the things, if the prince has any questions, after the emperor checks them out, he will have his own answer."

At a time like this, although Xiao Cheng already knew that from the beginning to the end, the clues that led them behind the scenes to connect the officials with the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce were what the people in Prince Ding's Mansion said, but at this point, no matter what, let the Besides the prince lost an arm, at the beginning, Xiao Luan caused them to lose Qin Hong.

"Concubine Ding is right. Father is above, so I have to wait for father's Sacred Heart to judge. What's more, the things that Minister Shangshu Yi Heng did have already been preliminarily determined, and all investigations are in progress. Why is the prince in such a hurry?"

Xiao Luan frowned, but the Prime Minister Zhang Xiu who was standing next to the prince felt even more uneasy. There was no doubt about what the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce and the Ministry of Officials had done, but behind this, the Ministry of Household Affairs was also involved. At this moment, Xiao Luo I'm afraid that the stack of reports brought by the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce has explained everything clearly. This time, they lost a minister of the official department, and they have to take in another minister of the household department. King Ding, can you Really capable, Xiao Luo was originally just a prince born to a maidservant, no matter how much he turmoil in his life, he would not be able to cause any disturbances, but with your intervention, even a single worm is enough to turn him upside down.

I don't know how long it has passed, Xiao Mingyuan, who was sitting on the high-ranking dragon chair, has already finished reading the memorial in his hand, and there is no trace of harmony on his face, he directly throws the memorial in his hand towards Zhang Xiu.

"The prime minister should also take a look at the report submitted by the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce."

Zhang Xiu went over and picked up the memorial. He just glanced at it roughly, but he saw the name of Fang Ning, Minister of the Ministry of Households, and he knew the result. All kinds of affairs between the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Households and the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce are a shame for my humble ministers to trust the emperor."

Xiao Mingyuan said in a concentrated voice: "It seems that the prime minister is in charge of the six ministries, and he is a little bit powerless."

Hearing these words, Xiao Luan knew the content of the report, seeing his uncle's eyes preventing him from pleading, he could only watch from the sidelines.

"Cai Tong, the chairman of the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce, said in a letter that officials from the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Households colluded with some personnel under the Chamber of Commerce, bribed them, and traded power for money. In detail, the report was written in great detail, and all the people involved were also guarded by the chamber of commerce, waiting for my instructions, and Cai Tong also asked me to make the Jiangnan chamber of commerce, the number one chamber of commerce in the world, the chamber of commerce to become Imperial merchants, in the future, the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce will pay [-]% more money than before, and it will no longer go through the Ministry of Accounts, but directly into the national treasury."

Everyone in the court was surprised when they heard this. People from the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce had already done this first. If they really waited until the imperial envoy sent by the emperor arrived in Jiangzhou City, the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce would not be able to protect itself at all, but so For one thing, although the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce was about to lose something, it was saved in the end.

Hearing this, Xiao Cheng glanced at his uncle. Originally, the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce was going to end with the disaster of the officials, but now the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce turned around and killed all the people involved in it. In order to cut off, but also to provide with the Ministry of Households, to strike first, the prince and the prime minister's six departments, originally only lost one official department, did not expect to take the Ministry of Households into it.

Is this the result of King Ding's move?In an instant, there was no way to fight back.

Xiao Mingyuan looked at Fang Ning, Minister of the Household Department over there, "Fang Ning, what else do you have to say about this report of the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce?"

"Your majesty, my humble minister..."

"I will immediately send people to inspect the Ministry of Households, just like the Ministry of Officials, from top to bottom, and thoroughly investigate. As for the various entanglements between the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Households and the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce, I will send people there again to take care of them. Rectify." Xiao Mingyuan said to the guards in front of the palace: "Take Fang Ning down."

Then, Xiao Mingyuan continued to Xiao Luo: "Since this item from the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce was brought to me by Princess Ding, I said that if I want to send another person there, I might as well let Princess Ding go there, what does Princess Ding think? "

Just as Xiao Luo was about to speak, Xiao Cheng who was at the side said first: "Father, my son thinks that this matter is somewhat inappropriate, please think again."

"What's wrong? What's wrong?"

Xiao Cheng then said: "Father, this matter involves government affairs, and everyone in the world knows that King Ding and Emperor Father once said that Prince Ding's mansion is not involved in government affairs. If Princess Ding is allowed to handle this matter, wouldn't it be to ruin father?" The agreement between the Emperor and King Ding, in the future..."

Everyone knew what Xiao Cheng was referring to when he didn't say a complete sentence. At this time, Liu Shuo who was beside him also echoed, saying: "Your Majesty, I think that what the Second Highness said is true. The Emperor wants to send someone. The court chooses the right person to go, and the concubine has a noble status, so it is better not to get involved in these matters."

Originally, Zhang Xiu could only keep silent because of successive accidents in the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Household Affairs, but now, if the emperor really allows the people who decide the palace to intervene in the court, then there will be nothing in the future. Even though Xiao Luo has become Princess Ding and has a noble status, that is only the status of Princess Ding, but he is also the emperor's ninth son. Where should these people stand?

Under the pressure, Zhang Xiu said: "Your Majesty, the matter of the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Household Affairs is the negligence of duty of this minister. It should be thoroughly investigated. It must be thoroughly investigated to the end. The minister will definitely take care of all these matters in accordance with the holy will." Okay, but as Grand Marshal Liu said, Princess Ding has a noble status, and these are hard work, so Princess Ding should not do it."

Of course Xiao Luo knew their intention to stop him, but since he was going to stand up, there was no reason to avoid it, since they felt that these things were exhausting, and they were afraid that he, Princess Ding, would not be able to bear the hardship, so he simply Just follow the trend, "Marshal Liu and the Prime Minister both feel that I can't afford the hard work, and the emperor wants me to do it again. Speaking of which, although I am Princess Ding, I am also the ninth son of the emperor, so I really want to refuse. , people outside, don’t they all say that I’m a golden noble, a waste that can’t be lifted by my hands and shoulders, it’s true, and I’m not a prince who was raised and pampered by golden nobles, His Royal Highness, Second Highness, don’t you think so?”

As soon as these words came out, the court hall was silent. About Xiao Luo's situation in the harem, before she became Princess Ding, no one knew about it. Asking His Highness the Crown Prince and His Highness the Second Highness in front of their faces, this is not just resetting the old score !

Xiao Luan and Xiao Cheng were at a loss for words for a while, but Xiao Mingyuan, who was sitting in the upper position, didn't care much. The former Xiao Luo, even if he was his own son, only had his own blood. The emperor's family, blood is one thing , Only those who have real skills in their hands have the qualifications to stand up and compete.

Xiao Mingyuan said softly: "Since that's the case, they feel that Princess Ding's status is too noble, and they may not be able to bear this hardship. Then Xiao Luo, you should go to Jiangnan Province as the Ninth Prince to conduct a thorough investigation on this matter. Arrange as soon as possible and start immediately!"

Not as the Princess Ding, but as the Ninth Prince. When Xiao Mingyuan's words came out, everyone was shocked. This is not clear. The emperor has already made a trade-off. This is considered to be the Ninth Prince's approval. As long as this matter is resolved smoothly, in the future, Among the candidates who can inherit the emperor's lineage, there is one more person.

Xiao Luan and Xiao Cheng looked a little embarrassed, and Xiao Luan was even more furious. This time, his subordinates folded in two ministers, but Xiao Luo took the opportunity to step on the top.

All of a sudden, things were arranged and they dispersed early.

Coming out of the Golden Luan Hall, Xiao Luan looked at Xiao Luo, and said coldly: "Princess Ding is really unexpected, no, Father, in order to let you intervene in a legitimate way, let you act as the Ninth Prince during this period, then I I should call you Ninth Brother."

Xiao Luo didn't take it seriously, "Whether it's unexpected or not, that's your business, nothing to do with me."

Xiao Cheng was beside him, and couldn't help smiling, "This time, we will go to Jiangnan Province again, Princess Ding... Ninth Brother must be careful, if you don't go out as Princess Ding, you may have a lot of trouble."

"Trouble?" Xiao Luo sneered, "At least my trouble comes from you, and it should be after the criminal evidence against the Minister of the Household and the Minister of the Ministry of Officials has been confirmed."

"Ninth brother is really good at joking, I still have something to do, so let's go first." Xiao Cheng said with a smile and left on his own.

Xiao Luo didn't pay attention to Xiao Luan any more, and left first, what should come will come anyway, if he wants to stand up now, he should face all of this instead of continuing to be timid behind.

Xiao Luan looked at Xiao Luo's back as he walked away, then turned to look at Zhang Xiu beside him, "Uncle, this matter..."

"He didn't want to stand in front of others as the Ninth Prince. The battle here was originally not entangled with the Ding Palace. So what does it matter if Xiao Luo died on the way this time!" Zhang Xiu said coldly.
