Chapter 44: The ministers are shocked, Emperor Yu plots

Emperor Yu sat high on the dragon throne, watching the indignation on the faces of all the civil and military officials, with a sneer on his face, and said lightly: "Whether to withdraw the order or not will be discussed later!"

"King Xuanyong, please report the results of last night's battle to the adults first!"

"As you wish!"

Ning Fan silently wrote down these people one by one, with a playful look on his face, and said softly: "Last night, the king raided the mansions of thirteen corrupt officials. Guess how much gold and silver were seized?"

"Hmm?"

Seeing Ning Fan keeping the secret, even Lin Qiushi on the side frowned slightly, with a hint of curiosity on his face!

"Hmph, Your Highness, are you seeking credit?"

"Yes, I am seeking credit, and it is a huge credit!"

A hint of sarcasm appeared on Ning Fan's face. He looked around and said in a stern voice: "Last night, I seized more than 5.7 million taels of silver, more than 460,000 taels of gold, and more than 1,700 pieces of treasures from the residences of thirteen officials!"

"How is this possible!"

"Five million and seven hundred thousand taels of silver, 460,000 taels of gold, that is, 4.7 million taels of silver, plus more than a thousand pieces of treasures, isn't it a huge sum of tens of millions of taels of money?"

"This is simply ridiculous!"

As soon as Ning Fan finished speaking, he caused an uproar among the court officials, all of whom were questioning.

"The account books of all the prefectures are now in my Jinyiwei Yamen, and the gold and silver stolen goods seized are all placed in front of my Jinyiwei Yamen!"

"If any lord does not believe it, or thinks that I have wronged these dog officials, you can go and check it out in person!"

"I am not afraid to tell you that there are also many people who are not clean among you, and I already have some evidence of crimes in my hands. If it were not for the mercy of my father, I am afraid that there would be a group of people missing in this morning court today!"

"Everyone, take care of yourself!"

Ning Fan stepped aside after he finished speaking. The faces of all the court officials instantly turned the color of pig liver, especially Hu Yue, whose face was full of shock: "How is it possible... My Dayu's tax revenue last year was only 7 million taels..."

"How... how could this be?"

"Lord Lu of the Ministry of Revenue is famous for his clean hands..."

Some court officials looked unbelievable, and some looked at Ning Fan with fear, and did not even dare to look at him.

Emperor Yu's face was full of sneers, his eyes fell on Hu Yue, and his tone was surprisingly calm: "Lord Hu, do you think these corrupt officials should be killed?!"

"Should...should be killed!"

Hu Yue was speechless when asked, and all the civil and military officials who had just shouted were flushed and bowed their heads in silence.

"Haha!" Emperor Yu looked at the expressions of the courtiers and sneered: "The property of just thirteen corrupt officials is equivalent to more than one year's tax revenue of Dayu!"

"Last year, when the south of the Yangtze River was flooded, you were still arguing over a mere 300,000 taels of disaster relief money!"

"If I knew that I could fill my Dayu treasury by confiscating a few houses, I would never have kept their heads until today!"

"And you!" Emperor Yu looked at the courtiers and glared at them: "Everyone is upright and selfless. Who dares to pat his chest and tell me that his ass is clean!"

Hearing Emperor Yu's angry rebuke, many courtiers lowered their heads in shame, and some looked at Ning Fan with resentment.

"After you go back, think about it carefully. Is this the only way to go to the end?"

"You should clean up your butts and start a new life!"

"I will let you go this time. After you go back, send the things that do not belong to you to the Jinyiwei Yamen!"

After Emperor Yu's words, the civil and military officials in the court were hesitant and stopped talking.

"King Xuanyong, investigate and punish all corrupt officials, clean up the court, and give a thousand taels of gold, a thousand pieces of brocade, and five hundred acres of fertile land!"

"Thank you, father!"

"Congratulations, master, for cleaning up corrupt officials and gaining 500 points of merit!"

Hearing the system prompt sound in his mind, Ning Fan's eyes flashed with joy. It turned out that the merit points were not as difficult to obtain as imagined. With the previous 500 points, it was enough to summon another peerless civil official and general!

"Your Majesty, the Minister of Revenue is an important position in the court. Now that Lu Hao has been executed, you should promote him in time!"

Lin Qiushi spoke at the right time, looking at Ning Fan from time to time, as if he wanted to see something from his face, but after a few glances, Ning Fan's expression remained calm.

"Hmm!" Emperor Yu nodded slightly, his face showing a thoughtful look, his eyes turned from Lin Qiushi to Ning Fan: "King Xuanyong, you have made great contributions this time, and you know all the officials in the court!"

"Do you have any candidates to recommend?"

As soon as these words came out, the civil and military officials in the court changed their colors. The Minister of Revenue is the money bag of the court. It can be said that if you sit in this position, your official career in this life is almost over. You are second to one person and above ten thousand people!

But now, Emperor Yu actually intends to give this position to King Xuanyong?

Is he preparing to support King Xuanyong?

"Reporting to the emperor, I have only been in politics for a short time and dare not speak rashly. Please make a wise decision!"

"In that case, let's discuss this matter later!" Emperor Yu did not seem surprised and immediately changed the subject: "My dear ministers, I talked with Prime Minister Lin about the past yesterday. When I mentioned the King of Huainan, I couldn't help but sigh!"

"Over the years, the King of Huainan has been guarding the southwest border for me, Dayu, and he has made great contributions!"

"I am very pleased and am ready to grant him the right to enfeoff!"

Emperor Yu suddenly mentioned the King of Huainan, who was a vassal in the southwest. This made all the court officials look puzzled, especially Lin Qiushi, who seemed to be stunned.

Yesterday, I didn't even meet your majesty, so how could you talk about the past?

Are you going to make me take the blame again?

"Your Majesty, the King of Huainan now owns sixteen states. I wonder how you plan to divide them?"

"Hehe!" Emperor Yu chuckled and said lightly: "The King of Huainan has achieved success and fame, and there is nothing more to be given. I plan to divide his descendants. I will divide the five descendants of the King of Huainan and give them the title of marquis!"

"When you turn sixteen, you will be a vassal, and you will rule sixteen states and have the right to establish a government!"

"What!"

When these words came out, everyone in the hall was shocked, and Lin Qiushi's eyes also showed a touch of shock.

Divide sixteen states?

Your majesty's game is an open conspiracy!

"What do you think, my dear ministers?"

"Your Majesty, is this great favor too much?"

"Haha, the King of Huainan is the pillar of my country, and all this is as it should be!"

"Your Majesty is kind, and I respect you!"

"I have no objection!"

Emperor Yu saw that several important ministers had no objection, and many of them had complicated faces. He made a decision directly, and his eyes fell on a middle-aged man with a straight figure: "My dear minister Zhao, this matter will be handed over to your Ministry of Rites!"

"I obey your order!"

The Minister of Rites Zhao Rui responded respectfully, and Emperor Yu also showed an unprecedented relaxed smile on his face. Now that there are so many vacancies in the court, he really needs to think about it.

"Dismiss the court!"

Emperor Yu waved his hand and announced the end of get off work. Ning Fan couldn't wait to rush to the mansion. He wanted to meet the famous Mr. Wolong, who knew the world in three parts before leaving the thatched cottage!

Now, living in seclusion in the thatched cottage, can he show his extraordinary talent?
