"Director Yuan, no, that's not right. I should call you Jun Zehao."
The first words Qi Bao'er said after he came in made Director Yuan's face change color, but it was just a subtle change of color that couldn't be seen without looking at it.
Looking at him, he still had a smile on his face, as if what Qi Bao'er just said had nothing to do with him at all.
"The world knows that King Duan had six sons and seven daughters in his life; however, what the world doesn't know is that King Duan also had three illegitimate sons and one daughter, and two illegitimate sons and one daughter."
The smile on Director Yuan's face froze slightly.
"Yuan Luyuan, whose original name was Jun Zehao, was born from an aunt of King Duan. Your biological mother, Mrs. Liu, is the concubine of the Minister of Industry, Liu Shilang.
Mrs. Liu died of illness shortly after giving birth to you, so King Duan sent you to the Yuan family to raise you."
Yuan, should be called Jun Zehao. Jun Zehao's face no longer smiled, and he looked at Qi Bao'er with a gloomy face.
"Prince Xian is really thorough in his investigation." He even found out her biological mother.
It's funny to say that his biological father no longer remembers his biological mother's surname, but Prince Xian, an outsider, only knew his biological mother's identity in a short period of time.
Jun Zehao's eyes darkened, and his pupils could be seen shrinking.
Qi Baoer stood with a faint smile on his face.
After a moment, Jun Zehao smiled again, his smile not reaching his eyes, "Sure enough, Prince Xian is not afraid of my magical skills."
Magical power??
Huh~
Qi Baoer really finds it hard to accept that people here call some special abilities magical powers, especially when Jun Zehao calls himself magical powers.
It feels like being in a cult.
Ignoring his meaningless words, Qi Bao'er asked: "I don't bother to ask any unnecessary questions. I only want to ask you, who is your real master?"
With her ghostly eyes, she naturally knew who his real master was, but it was useless for her to know. Jun Zehao had to confess on his own to prove it.
Jun Zehao was strangely cooperative and said with a smile: "Even if Prince Xian already knows who my biological father is, how could he not guess who I am working for?"
"You mean King Duan?"
"Prince Duan has maintained nearly 200,000 private soldiers for more than ten years. The 200,000 people need food, drink and clothing. Prince Duan's palace can only live on a small monthly salary, how can it afford it?!"
"King Duan had numerous concubines in his life and had many concubines outside his home. Most of them were the daughters of merchants or people with a lot of money at home."
"King Duan is smart. Princess Duan's family background is not high, she is not fearful, and she cannot control Prince Duan and his backyard."
Although the faces of the people listening remained unchanged, their eyes were full of contempt; Prince Duan was a person in the city, but he was too disgusting.
"Prince Duan benefited from concubines and concubines, and his prince also followed suit. But relying on these alone is still not enough to feed an army of 200,000."
Jun Zehao smiled bitterly, "It just so happened that I became the director of the treasurer's office in Zhongcheng. King Duan then thought of my son."
Jun Zehao didn't say why he wanted to help King Duan. Maybe it was the relationship between father and son, maybe it was other reasons, but it was no longer important.
"Prince Xian doesn't have to worry too much about interrogating the guilty minister. Everything the guilty minister did for Prince Duan has been recorded in the book. The book is hidden under the floor tiles under the bed of the guilty minister in the treasurer's office."
Qi Baoer gave General Yuan a look, and General Yuan was ordered to go and get the booklet Jun Zehao mentioned.
About half an hour later, General Yuan hurried back with sweat all over his head, and indeed he took out a very thick book.
"Your Majesty, there is also this." General Yuan handed over another smaller and thinner booklet.
Qi Bao'er took both books. He didn't read the thick one immediately, but opened the thin one first.
After just a few glances, her face turned cold.
-
The northwest is not peaceful, and the capital far away from the northwest is also not peaceful at this time.
I don't know when, there were rumors everywhere in Beijing that Prince Xian abused his power to seek personal gain for his father, and withheld all the military pay and military supplies originally issued by the Ministry of War to the Third Army of the Northwest for various reasons.
The Qi family army.
There are also rumors that are so exaggerated that countless soldiers of the Zhenxi Army and the Pang Family Army have starved to death and froze to death, and they are just short of leaving a dead body in the wilderness.
Not only did Prince Xian not clarify the matter, he had not even appeared in the capital for half a month. A dignified minister was neither in court nor in office.
Immediately afterwards, the imperial censors began to impeach Prince Xian one after another.
Imperial Palace, Imperial Study Room.
Eunuch Fu hurried in with small steps, "Your Majesty, Feng Yushi has fainted."
The words sounded very anxious, but if you listen carefully, it is not difficult to hear the gloating in Mr. Fu's official speech.
——We have already mentioned that King Xian was seriously ill and was resting in bed, but he still kept waiting like this forever. It didn't matter that he was fainting. According to him, he really deserved to die.
Jun Chenyuan looked up from the memorial and asked: "Has there been any news from the wise king?"
"Replying to your Majesty, no letter has arrived from Prince Xian today."
——Your Majesty, didn’t you just receive a letter from King Xian last night? King Xian didn’t go to the northwest just for fun. How could he have time to write a letter in a day?
A hint of discomfort flashed across Jun Chenyuan's face, "Are those censors still kneeling outside?"
"yes."
——Just wait and see if Prince Xian is not in the capital and want to bully the Qi family. Once Prince Xian comes back, we will see if these censors can escape unscathed.
In the Qilin Kingdom, the censor cannot impeach other officials at will. If the content of the impeachment is true, it is fine. If it is false, then the censor who impeached the person will have to be punished. In serious cases, he may even lose his life.
There are many rumors in the capital that Prince Xian is using his power for personal gain. However, the rumors are just rumors and will affect the hearts of the people. However, as for the censor, they dare not impeach the Prince just because of the rumors without any evidence.
.
However, just yesterday, San Lang had a fight with Feng Yushi's son, Feng Deyin, and Feng Deyin was seriously injured. The emperor sent an imperial doctor to see him. Two ribs were broken and he was also injured.
It is unknown whether my brain will wake up or not.
Although Feng Yushi had one wife and three concubines in his family, he only had a son. He was born in his early forties and was considered an old boy. He usually hurt as much as an eyeball.
That’s okay!!
Feng Yushi immediately went to Jingzhao Mansion in person to accuse San Lang of killing one person and harming another, and then summoned a bunch of censors to impeach Prince Xian for not being strict in running the family.
Eunuch Fu was still muttering in his heart: The emperor had already imprisoned the third young master, had agreed on everything and followed his tone, and even came to remonstrate with him. He deserved to faint.
Jun Chenyuan rubbed his temples: "Did Master An find anything?"
"Replying to the emperor, Mr. An has already found out that it was Feng Deyin who slandered Prince Xian first. The third young master became angry when he heard it. The two argued and started fighting. There were many young masters fighting at that time, and it was extremely chaotic.
I heard Feng Deyin suddenly scream and fainted. At that time, the Third Young Master was already several meters away from Feng Deyin."
According to the testimonies of the young masters, Feng Deyin's injury was related to San Lang, but the person who caused his current ending was obviously not San Lang.
But the problem is that Feng Yushi doesn't believe these testimonies.
