Yan Li and Yan Lin gathered together on the carriage and went to the Ministry of Finance together.
When I arrived at the Ministry of Household Affairs, I learned something. It turned out that His Majesty had handed over the Ministry of Household Affairs to the Crown Prince as Assistant Manager.
At this moment, the two brothers almost exploded. They all saw true shock and confusion in each other's eyes. What happened in the past two days that they didn't know? Why did the father suddenly treat the prince so badly?
Has his attitude changed? He actually handed over such an important department as the household department to the crown prince's assistant manager?
You know, the prince has always been unpopular. Although he is the crown prince of the East Palace, he only manages the Ministry of Rites.
The two men caught Feng Chang, the Minister of Household Affairs, and questioned him.
Feng Chang handed over his hands with a grimace, "Your Highnesses, this veteran doesn't know. I was almost dismissed by Your Majesty. It's not easy to keep the black gauze hat on my head. I beg you, Your Highnesses, since
Your Majesty has sent you two, come up with something quickly!"
Yan Li and Yan Lin stared at him with dark faces, "Don't you know?"
Feng Chang could only confide a little, "The old Protector lost his temper with His Majesty. After the old Protector left, Your Majesty reflected on it for a long time."
The two of them immediately believed this, and they also heard that when the old Lord Protector left the palace, he was so angry that the guards at the palace gate said that they had never seen the old Lord Protector with such a dark face. Father.
If an army were to be raised, there would naturally be no way around the Duke Protector's Mansion. After all, the Lord Protector was in charge of the 300,000 troops in Daliang. But once an army was raised, the treasury must be well prepared. Now that the treasury has no money, the old Lord Protector would be angry.
Thinking about it this way, it is understandable that the old Protector took out his temper on his father, and his father naturally wanted to find them. After all, in the past three years, money had flowed into their father-in-law's pockets. Of course, everyone knew that part of the money
, also secretly flowed into their pockets from their in-laws.
After all, money is needed to cultivate secret guards, win over courtiers, and cultivate power. The emperor's support is not enough, but they also need a large amount of expenditure themselves.
Yan Li's expression changed, he immediately dropped what he was doing and hurried back to the eldest prince's residence.
The emperor took the file, and his face became more and more ugly as he flipped through it. At the end of the page, it turned black, "What a great princess, how dare she!"
At the same time, the steward of the eldest prince's residence hurried to the household department to find the eldest prince, saying that the eldest prince's concubine asked the eldest prince to return to the mansion quickly. He had to do it quickly, otherwise it would be too late.
The two of them felt suffocated, but had nothing to say. They both made up their minds, and naturally they couldn't spit it out if they asked for money, but they had to think of a way to deal with this matter.
The two men no longer grabbed Feng Chang, but asked about the prince, "Where is the prince? How should I say it?"
The emperor's expression softened slightly, but he was still furious, "How could she, a woman, have such means? She is really despicable!"
King Ruian shook his head and said, "I don't dare to investigate anymore. Your Majesty, are you sure you want me to continue the investigation? There is only one eldest prince and you have seen it. It not only involves several monks of the Great Buddha Temple, but also involves a lot of people inside and outside the court."
List. If we continue to check this, I'm afraid..."
He looked at the emperor and suggested, "I would like to inform your majesty that the eldest princess will be interrogated secretly, but she cannot be detained in the sky prison. No matter it is the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple, or Zongren Mansion, I feel unsafe. The rest of the people involved in the case,
All arrested and brought to justice."
Although Yan Huisheng received the imperial order to co-manage the household department, he did not go to the household department, but still handed over full power to Feng Chang. He just wanted to see what the emperor would do next? The eldest prince Yan Li and the second prince Yan
What would Lin do? What would Nanping Hou and General Pingxi do?
After King Ruian inspected the Great Buddhist Temple again, he was also assassinated by a large number of assassins on his way back.
In the past, the emperor would have stopped letting King Ruian continue to investigate, and he would have taken over and dealt with it slowly. But now, if Su Rong's life experience is revealed and the Wei army invades, and the government and the public cannot work together, I'm afraid
It's really going to happen again.
Although Yan Li and Yan Lin looked ugly, they did not say anything.
So, when King Ruian left the palace, he took away the emperor's handwriting and the Yulin Guards, and went straight to the eldest prince's mansion.
The emperor was worried about the lack of money in the household department. After handing over the household department to the prince's assistant, he didn't see any movement from the prince. He felt a little dissatisfied, but he didn't blame the prince harshly. After waiting for another two days, he saw the eldest prince Yan Li and the second prince.
Yan Lin also had no attitude of sharing the worries of the treasury, which immediately angered the emperor.
King Ruian was silent.
King Ruian was silent for another moment and sighed, "Your Majesty, are you confused? The eldest princess has only been married to the capital for two years. No matter how powerful she is, how can she reach out to the imperial guards? There is someone else behind her."
"Is there Yan Li's handwriting here?" the emperor asked again.
King Ruian raised his hand and said, "Yes!"
After he returned to Beijing, he asked the imperial doctor to bandage his wounds, and then he was directly escorted into the palace.
The emperor barely hesitated, "Check, as I said earlier, check thoroughly for me!"
When the emperor heard this, he was angry, angry, and helpless. The Third Division was in name only, mocking him as the king of a country. He waved his hand and said, "Let's take you to Prince Ruian's Mansion for secret interrogation!"
However, before the emperor could express his anger, he saw King Ruian entering the palace injured.
When Yan Li heard this, he frowned, "Why is it so urgent?"
They kept asking for money from the treasury. Now that the treasury was short of money, the two of them could not say anything but ignore it. In addition to the emperor, the courtiers were also watching.
This Chao Gang was shaken!
King Ruian did not answer.
The emperor was naturally not confused. He gritted his teeth and his eyes were dark, "Have you found out?"
"We haven't found anything yet." King Ruian shook his head.
In particular, he was so bold that he actually reached out to his imperial guards while he was guarding the East Palace and the Protectorate's Palace. He must not be tolerated.
The emperor clutched the file tightly, "Is this really what she did?"
"The prince said that he is only the associate minister. The key is to rely on the veteran minister and the two highnesses." Feng Chang said quickly: "After all, in the past three years, your majesty has witnessed the two highnesses, the Nanping Marquis Mansion and the Pingxi General Mansion."
Not to mention, he conspired with his brother to get his hands on Su Rong. When he failed, he ordered his hired killer to kill Su Rong.
It is necessary to ensure that important people are safe.
King Ruian was well prepared and did not let the killer succeed, but he was also seriously injured.
King Ruian looked pale and a little embarrassed. After meeting the emperor, he said nothing and took out a file from his sleeve, "Your Majesty, please take a look."
The file records that since her marriage to the capital, the eldest prince's concubine Ning Yao bribed several monks from the Great Buddha Temple and used the Buddhist grounds of the Great Buddha Temple to do countless things to hide evil and evil. The most heinous thing among them was to win over the court.
An official in the Central Government actually framed someone to rape his daughter, took advantage of him, and used the official to his advantage. The official's daughter was later forced to hang herself from a rafter.
The emperor was very frightened and angry. He looked at King Ruian and asked, "Was she responsible for all the major cases in Beijing? What a bold woman!"
King Ruian secretly breathed a sigh of relief after receiving the emperor's approval. He also wanted the emperor to investigate, so he cupped his hands and said, "I obey the decree."
"Your Highness, it's urgent." The housekeeper lowered his voice and said urgently: "You should go back quickly! The princess said that King Ruian entered the palace directly after returning from the Great Buddha Temple."
In the eldest prince's palace, the eldest prince's concubine Ning Yao listened to the report with a pale face, saying that King Ruian returned to the capital safely. Not only that, he had wiped out all the secret stakes planted in the Great Buddha Temple. King Ruian used capital punishment, and several monks confessed
, I'm afraid she has been betrayed.
Ning Yao felt that she was finished!
Not only was she dead, but her brother and her family members in the Nanping Marquis Mansion were also dead. When she ordered someone to call the eldest prince Yan Li, she immediately sent someone to send a message to Ning Ze, asking him to leave the capital quickly and leave now, immediately.
Go, otherwise you won't be able to leave no matter how late it is.
As for her, her face was pale and she was touching her belly. She had the emperor and grandson beside her.
