"Mom, it's the child who is wrong. It's the child who is obsessed with lard. Mother, please give the child another chance. Don't abandon the child."
Zhao Kuan's cry of sorrow made everyone stunned.
Good guy, when a person is alive, it’s more uncomfortable to have you call me “Mang” than to kill you. This person is already dead, how can you scream happily?
Not to mention Wu Yuan, even some people in the Zhao family couldn't stand it.
Everyone knows that Zhao Kuan is not returning from his lost ways at all, he is just trying to please Wu Yuan.
Zhao Kuan saw that he was about to become a beggar, so he hoped to take this opportunity to win Wu Yuan's favor, preferably by giving him something as a reward.
I have to say that Zhao Kuan's judgment is still accurate.
If Zhao Kuan had really willingly recognized Bai Qingmei as his mother before, Wu Yuan might still be open to Zhao Kuan for the sake of Bai Aoxue.
But it is a pity that Wu Yuan knew very well what kind of person Zhao Kuan was from the beginning, otherwise he would not have used Zhao Kuan as a breakthrough point.
But seeing Zhao Kuan's hard work, Wu Yuan still gave Zhao Kuan a special reward.
"Zhao Kuan, don't say I didn't give you a chance. If you can kneel down and kowtow to your mother's immortal tablet every day within three years, I will give you a fortune in three years."
Perhaps for an ordinary person, it only takes three years of persistence to get rich rewards, which is something worth celebrating, but for Zhao Kuan, what he has achieved now is already the limit.
Asking him to kowtow and kneel before this lowly woman whom he despised from the bottom of his heart every day for three years was simply hellish torture.
Almost as soon as Wu Yuan finished speaking, Zhao Kuan could no longer pretend.
"Emperor Dog, how long do you want to play with me? I curse you to die."
Zhao Kuan could no longer see any hope, so he stopped pretending and scolded Wu Yuan directly.
But the consequence of doing this is to be beaten fifty times and then thrown to the ground like a dead dog.
Next, Wu Yuan ransacked his house directly in front of all the civil and military officials, and even chatted with these ministers.
"There is also a banquet carefully prepared by the Zhao family. Although it is a bit unsatisfactory, don't waste it. We are all hungry. You might as well watch the fun while eating."
Looking at the pitifully few and cold dishes on the table in front of them, the ministers were also a little bit dumbfounded.
They had truly experienced the horror of Wu Yuan today. They ransacked the home of a wealthy family in the capital in just a few minutes, and it was impossible to find any fault with him.
Obviously, they had reminded the new emperor at the previous court meeting that the power in the capital should not disturb its roots, otherwise it would destroy some of the original balance and lead to civil strife in Dawu.
But in the evening, Wu Yuan personally taught them all a lesson.
The entire Zhao family was manipulated in the palm of one's hand, but no one could find any fault with it.
Now almost all the ministers in the court are here. Everyone has witnessed the decline of the Zhao family. I am afraid that no one will dare to give Wu Yuan eye drops when he goes to court tomorrow.
Not all ministers have seen the scene of house raids. Today, the guards ransacked houses on the spot, which opened the eyes of many people.
The items that were searched were really clean. Not to mention tables and chairs, pots and pans, clothes and bedding, everything that could be taken away was taken away.
Except for the clothes worn by the Zhao family, nothing else was left behind.
The despair on the faces of the Zhao family was also seen by everyone.
It’s a shame that confiscating your home really doesn’t take much effort. Even if you were once rich, it only takes a stick of incense to make you bankrupt.
If Wu Yuan and these ministers were not still here, the Zhao family's house would have been emptied by now.
In fact, just one look at the excitement of the house raid was enough. Many ministers did not like this atmosphere and felt that nothing else would happen tonight, so they said goodbye to Wu Yuan.
But they were all rejected by Wu Yuan one by one.
At this time, these ministers were completely in no mood to watch the fun.
They have already reached this point, but they still don’t ask them to leave? This is obviously the new emperor’s play, and he hasn’t finished singing yet.
Moreover, many ministers felt that Wu Yuan's eyes looked a little hairy and had an ominous premonition.
Wu Yuan first waved his hand and drove everyone out of the Zhao family, leaving them to fend for themselves.
Then he said to the ministers: "My lords, I have eaten this meal and seen enough of the excitement. What do you think?"
Thoughts?
Who dares to have such a thing at this time?
If anything, it means that this emperor was a little unreasonable, and in the blink of an eye, he turned a noble family into a beggar.
Others dare not say it, but Liu Baichuan is not that afraid of Wu Yuan.
The Zhao family has a close relationship with him. If he is summoned and investigated, he may be implicated. This implication is mostly on the financial level such as money, jewelry, and jade.
But I’m afraid it would not be easy for anyone else.
Liu Baichuan was not afraid of offending Wu Yuan now, and said with a gloomy look: "I don't have anything to say. I just want to know when your Majesty plans to stop."
No one expected Liu Baichuan to ask so directly, but indeed, this question was something they wanted to know.
Although everyone understands that the Zhao family deserves their punishment, this cannot be separated from Wu Yuan's deliberate actions.
At the moment, Wu Yuan's series of actions have made it obvious to everyone that Wu Yuan is trying every means to make money.
And they are all worth tens of millions of taels, which can be called a historical crime.
The ministers can also understand the reason why Wu Yuan made money. Da Wu is now surrounded by enemies and is about to go to war. Military supplies, food and wages need enough money to support them.
However, in the eyes of everyone, there must be a limit to how much money can be made. Such blind pursuit of money will inevitably make people panic.
So they also want to know how much money Wu Yuan plans to make?
General Wu Yuan saw the expressions of all the ministers, and then said with a smile: "I know that many of you think that I am trying every means to make money."
Everyone thought that Wu Yuan said this because he wanted to quibble, but unexpectedly, Wu Yuan directly admitted it in the next second, "Very good. You can see this, which means you are worthy of the salary in your hands."
Everyone looked at Wu Yuan with dumbfounded eyes, wondering why Wu Yuan suddenly admitted this so happily.
Or are they not the only ones who think that this kind of thing is not something a gentleman would do, let alone a king?
I just don't know why, but when I hear Wu Yuan talk about the salary in their hands, I always feel panicked.
While these people were still speculating, Wu Yuan directly revealed the answer that surprised everyone.
