The Rise of the European Emperor

Zhengde rushed out excitedly with a group of guards. Outside the palace gate, Zhengde saw a group of ministers kneeling there. Zhengde frowned, and when he looked at Liu Zhong who was kneeling at the head, his eyes were full of disgust.

However, it is not a problem to make all these ministers kneel here. If Liu Zhong was the only one, Zhengde might go crazy. But with so many people, it's really hard for him to start. Because, if all the people in front of you were taken down, half of the people in the court would be reduced, which would directly lead to the paralysis of many institutions. The so-called "law does not blame the public" is also true. Yang Yiqing knew that it would be difficult for a single person or a few people to persuade Zhengde, who has a bad temper, so he came up with the idea of ​​collective knocking. It's just that the one who takes the lead is destined to be difficult to please. After all, it would definitely be unlucky to be hated by the emperor.

However, if Liu Jin escaped without moving this time, it would be more terrifying than being hated by the emperor. The emperor hates you, at most it will make you lose your future. After all, as long as you have a good reputation, the emperor can't deal with you unscrupulously, at most you will have no future. But if he is missed by Liu Jin, who is ruthless, his family will be ruined. Liu Jian, the former assistant, is now only one step away from family ruin. Moreover, if it fails, all the officials who participated in the downfall of Liu this time will have their families destroyed. Therefore, they are also forced to. If you win, it's unlucky to take the lead. If you lose, everyone will be unlucky, and it will be unlucky for you and your family too...

After leaving the palace gate, Zhengde walked up to Liu Zhong, who was kneeling at the head, and said in an indifferent tone:

"Scholar Liu, what are you doing? Is it too old to kneel here?"

Liu Zhong saluted Zhengde and said:

"It's true that I'm kneeling here, but I'm the only one who suffers. But if Liu Jin doesn't get rid of this thief, then everyone in the world will suffer!" After speaking, Liu Zhong bowed to the ground and didn't look up again...

"Okay, get up! I heard that you accused Lao Liu of treason, this time I will personally lead a team to search Lao Liu's mansion to see if there is any evidence of rebellion. University scholar Liu, are you with me? ?”

"Dare to disobey!" Liu Zhong's eyes lit up immediately.

A few days ago, Liu Zhong vaguely heard a news that Liu Jin liked to play with some jewelry and jade. Among them, there are prohibited items such as jade belts. As long as these things are found, Liu Jin will never be able to please him.

As a minister in the court, Liu Zhong also has a certain understanding of Zhengde. Although Zhengde is young, he is not easy to fool. In particular, Zhengde attaches great importance to such things as righteousness and fame. If Zhengde were allowed to see those contraband, even if Liu Jin didn't die this time, he would definitely lose his holy family. And Liu Jin, who has lost his holy family, is no longer a threat.

Therefore, Liu Zhong was full of excitement, looking eager to try...

"Okay, Master Liu will follow me to search the old Liu's mansion. Everyone else, let's go! Don't delay the business!"

Liu Zhong stood up excitedly and was about to follow Zhengde. However, some officials were giving Liu Zhong winks. Obviously, they wanted to make some small moves. For example, framing Liu Jin or something. Some people have put their hands into their sleeves, obviously he has "stolen goods"...

But before they finished communicating, Zhengde said with a half-hearted smile:

"I forgot to say, before entering Lao Liu's house to search later, everyone will be searched, lest someone bring something in and plant it on Lao Liu..."

Hearing this, the movements of many ministers in front of the palace froze...

But Liu Zhong's expression was relatively calm. In his opinion, it was normal for Liu Jin, a domineering person who could make a prince kneel down for him, to have forbidden things in his house. Therefore, there is no need to plant blame, and it is estimated that there will be gains.

Liu Zhong's guess was correct. If Ma Lin hadn't reported the letter, there would have been counterfeit jade seals and jade belts in Liu Jin's mansion that were prohibited. As long as he gets it, Liu Jin will die.

However, because of Marin's tip-off, Liu Jin has already destroyed these contraband...

...

When Zhengde took Liu Zhong, Zhang Yong, Gu Dayong and others, and a group of guards to Liu Jin's residence, Liu Jin was not at home, but was busy with the funeral.

What funeral? Liu Jin's elder brother, Liu Jingxiang, has passed away, and Liu Jin is organizing the funeral for his elder brother. So, it's been a bit of a busy time. And on August 15th, it happened to be the day of the burial, Liu Jin went to make arrangements for his elder brother's funeral, and had no time for him.

Speaking of which, Liu Jin's real surname is not Liu, but Tan. But he was adopted by the eunuch Liu Shun since he was a child, and he is Liu Shun's adopted son. Therefore, Liu Jingxiang, Liu Shun's nephew, can be regarded as Liu Jin's elder brother. After Liu Jin came to power, he didn't treat his brother on the spectrum badly, and promoted him to be the governor's co-knowledge of the first-rank five-army governor's mansion, with a noble status.

But Liu Jingxiang was in poor health and died of illness. As a younger brother on the same genealogy, Liu Jin naturally had to help with the funeral.

The reason why Yang Yiqing and Zhang Yong chose this time was because they had calculated that Liu Jin would not be free, so they attacked him. Otherwise, they may not have the courage.

Liu Jin, who was busy with his cousin's funeral, didn't know that the emperor had brought a group of people to his house on a whim...

Poor Liu Jin worked so hard to deal with the memorials, but Zhengde, who was supposed to deal with these memorials, took people to demolish his hometown...

...

It was the first time that Zhengde, who personally led a team to raid his hometown, was obviously very excited and got into the mood early. After bringing people to Liu Jin's residence, Zhengde excitedly commanded:

"Come here, surround Lao Liu's mansion, and don't let a single bird out!"

Immediately, hundreds of Jinwu guards surrounded Lao Liu's mansion. Then, Zhengde called open the main gate of Liu Jin's mansion. As an emperor, he can only go through the main entrance, and lose his position if he goes sideways...

But it is not easy for others to get in. Because Zhengde ordered that everyone should be searched before coming in, in case they bring something to plant Lao Liu...

After the search, a group of people entered Liu Jin's mansion one by one.

But after entering Liu Jin's mansion, Zhengde did not search the secret room immediately, but shouted loudly:

"Take me to Lao Liu's warehouse to see the gold and silver!"

Apparently, Masanori, who was in Secondary School, didn't come here to find fault at all, but wanted to see how much money Liu Jin had...

Zhang Yong, Gu Dayong and others had no choice but to surround Zhengde and go to Liu Jin's warehouse...

Liu Jin's mansion is very large, comparable to the prince's mansion. Also, this guy is cunning. In order not to violate the rules, Liu Jin bought two independent mansions connected together. Then, open in the middle, as a huge twin mansions.

Usually, Liu Jin lives in the mansion on the east side, and the plaque of Liu's mansion is also hung in front of the house on the east side. As for the mansion on the west side, there is no sign on the door.

Liu Jin's butler did not dare to disobey Zhengde, so he took Zhengde to the west...

"This... this is about to reach the west wall of the Liu Mansion..." Zhengde was a little puzzled.

Liu Jin's butler, Lao Liu, did not dare to expire, and lowered his eyebrows and said:

"There is a gate in the middle, which leads to the house on the west side. The whole west house is the warehouse of Eunuch Liu..."

"What? The entire mansion to the west is Lao Liu's warehouse?" Zhengde was shocked...

You know, Liu Jin's mansions to the east and west are large mansions with dozens of rooms. It's all warehouses... Liu Jin really has a lot of money...

Just walk into a room and it's full of big locked boxes. Ask Old Liu to open it—it's all silver...

Going to another room, it was also full of boxes. When I opened it, it was full of silver, and there was no copper coin...

Emperor Zhengde asked why there were no copper coins, and Old Liu’s answer left Zhengde speechless—copper coins take up too much space and are not put in boxes, they are usually scattered...

Then, in the firewood room of the West Residence, Zhengde saw copper coins scattered all over the place, but no one tidied them up...

According to old Liu Tou, when Liu Jin rewarded his servants, he asked them to come to the firewood room to grab a handful of copper coins, and they didn't bother to count...

"Old Liu is really rich..." Even though he is the emperor, Zhengde was shocked by Liu Jin's arrogance...
