Zhao Jinsheng knelt down on the ground with a plop and started to perform furiously!
The old man even used up all his strength to suck the milk and squeezed out a few tears.
"Your Majesty! Zhao Kang is not a national teacher but a national thief! Five hundred and twenty thousand taels of silver! This thief actually colluded with government and businessmen! He is using the power given by your majesty! He is sucking my blood!"
"Your Majesty! Zhao Kang is blatantly selling smuggled salt! He deserves to be punished! I sincerely request your Majesty to issue an order! Kill the national traitors. Not killing Zhao Kang will not be enough for the people to get angry!"
Lin Yu yelled and knelt down as well! Today is the day to overthrow Zhao Kang!
"If Your Majesty refuses to allow it, protect this thief! I will crash to death in this golden palace! Otherwise, I will be ashamed to bear the responsibility of being a censor of the capital given by the late emperor!"
Long Xingyi's eyes were ferocious, and he even brought out the late emperor, hoping to use this as the last straw to kill Zhao Kang!
Li Yuan, Minister of the Ministry of War, took a breath of cold air, he was going to fight to the death!
Master Yang's snow-white eyebrows were squeezed together and he looked at Zhao Kang who said nothing.
This guy is usually naughty and naughty, so why has he lost his mind this time? What should we do?
With Zhao Jinsheng and Lin Yu taking the lead, the other ministers who knew that Zhao Kang wanted to pull out the family also stood up and knelt down.
"I sincerely ask your Majesty to kill the traitors of the country. Unless Zhao Kang dies, the country will be in trouble! Unless the traitors of Zhao are eliminated, our generals will never have peace!"
Everyone shouted loudly, Xiao Linglong took a deep breath and looked at Zhao Kang.
"National Preceptor, do you have anything to say?"
Zhao Kang smiled flatly: "I have nothing to say."
"Okay! Since you have nothing to say, let me say it for you!"
Zhao Jinsheng and others were stunned for a while, and Lin Yu responded quickly: "Your Majesty, do you still want to protect this thief? Do you want to watch the national thief cholera spread and destroy the foundation created by the previous emperors!"
Xiao Linglong's eyes were cold, and as soon as her phoenix eyes swept across, Lin Yu felt cold all over his body and quickly lowered his head.
The Empress stepped down from the throne step by step: "Listen to me first. When the time comes, you will know whether he is a thief or something else."
Lin Yu didn't dare to speak anymore. Xiao Linglong's look just now made him feel as if he was in the execution ground.
I am confused, why is Your Majesty so unusual today?
Xiao Linglong shocked everyone as she walked down the dragon steps: "The Imperial Master has reported to me before that the combined annual profits of various industries in Yuanjiang County are around one million silver dollars!"
"Before today, he handed over 1.5 million taels of silver to me for the first time, which is the output value of Yuanjiang County for one and a half years! Last time Baiguan Xiumu went to Yuanjiang County to inspect sweet potatoes, and when he returned to the palace, he handed over another silver , this time the five-year output value of Yuanjiang County plus the dividends from all of Zhao Kang's properties in Yuanjiang County is a total of 6.8 million taels! That silver note weighs a pound!"
Everyone looked at Zhao Kang in stunned silence. Master Yang's hands were trembling with excitement, and Li Yuan, Minister of War, turned pale.
No one noticed that Her Majesty the Queen's pretty face was rosy, but they remembered what Zhao Kang said in the carriage.
“Where I’m from, women are in charge of men’s money.”
Her Majesty the Empress's voice gradually became louder: "There was a flood in Jiangzhou, and the national counselor Zhao Kang planted sweet potatoes in Yuanjiang County, but after all, the water from far away could not quench the thirst of the people nearby. But he, Zhao Kang, took out 200,000 shi from the grain reserves in Yuanjiang County, and the entire Yuanjiang County has a total of 360,000 shi of grain, which is enough for me to fight a big war! It’s enough to feed everyone in Yuanjiang County for a hundred years!"
"But he secretly transported the grain to Jiangzhou. To this day, grain trucks from Yuanjiang County rush to Jiangzhou day and night! Otherwise, do you think Jiangzhou's floods can be controlled so quickly? It's all because of him. The entire Yuanjiang County was hollowed out!"
"When I was at the peak of my career, the total tax revenue in a year was only 5 million silver. Zhao Kang turned over the silver twice for a total of 7.3 million, which made up for the emptiness of the national treasury and provided 12 million kilograms of disaster relief grain. The victims have food to eat!”
"I went to Jingguo alone to help me gain a strong ally!"
"You actually tell me that such a person is a traitor to the country! It's me who is blind, or you, Zhao Jinsheng, who is blind!"
Finally, Xiao Linglong roared angrily. Taifu Zhao Jinsheng was sweating profusely and shaking his head, and quickly lowered his head. He wanted to say something, but he couldn't come up with a single word.
fear!
A strong fear surrounded him!
At this moment, Zhao Kang seemed to be exuding moral brilliance all over his body, making it impossible for him, a bed bug in the gutter, to escape!
Is this a fucking national thief? Is he the reincarnation of a saint?
You've done so many stupid things, why are you hiding them? Say no earlier!
Lin Yu's lips were dry, his voice was trembling, and he was still resisting: "But...but His Majesty, Zhao Kang, selling illicit salt is a capital crime..."
Xiao Linglong looked at him angrily: "Selling private salt! Who told you that it was private salt!"
"The Daqian Chamber of Commerce established by Imperial Master Zhao Kang in the imperial capital is for me! All the revenue of the Daqian Chamber of Commerce is made by him! He has handed over all the industries in Yuanjiang County to me, and he is doing it for me. I’ll take care of it!”
"Are you saying that I am selling illegal salt?"
"His Majesty!"
Lin Yu hit his head heavily on the ground, and he was also surrounded by fear! He understood everything at this moment!
Your Majesty knows all these things!
It was Zhao Kang and His Majesty who joined forces to make this happen!
A bureau specifically targeted at them!
Xiao Linglong walked up to Long Xingyi, her eyes full of murderous intent: "You just said that if I didn't kill Zhao Kang, you would just crash to death in this golden palace? Now I tell you, I will never kill Zhao Kang. Kang.”
"Your Majesty, have mercy on me! Your Majesty, please have mercy on me!" Long Xingyi panicked and begged for mercy!
Xiao Linglong: "The late emperor gave you the position of Censor of the Censor, so that you can guard the officials, not to do evil and frame Zhongliang! From today onwards, the Censorship of the Censor will be abolished! All Censors of the Censor will be sent back to their hometowns and demoted. For the common people!"
"Your Majesty, spare your life! Spare me, Your Majesty!"
Long Xingyi kept begging for mercy, because his Long family dominated the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and all the imperial censors were from the Long family.
Over the years, he has offended many officials due to the special behavior of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. He was dismissed and demoted to a commoner. Everyone knows what will happen to the Long family.
However, Xiao Linglong made no move to change her mind. Long Xingyi was so frightened that he shouted at Lin Yu and Zhao Jinsheng.
"Master Lin, Master, please save me!"
The two people who were begging for help were so scared that they almost peed. You are paralyzed. If you want to die, don't hold us!
The two of them just knelt on the ground and did not dare to respond. If they unite, there is really nothing that His Majesty can do to touch them.
But now, relying on Zhao Kang's moral brilliance, Xiao Linglong began to use the butcher's knife. If any of them dared to jump out at this time, only one of them would die!
There is no way, Zhao Kang's moral buff is too strong. With Her Majesty the Empress in this state, everyone will just clap and applaud whoever she wants to kill!
How could they dare to say anything? They could only watch helplessly as Long Xingyi was stripped of his official title and dragged away.
Everyone knows that the Long family is finished!
Her Majesty the Empress returned to the dragon throne, sat down and said coldly: "Who else thinks that the Imperial Preceptor is a traitor to the State!"
