Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife - Chapter 536
[Chapter 536 One jumps in, two jumps in]
Hearing that the silver in his hand was official silver, the emperor’s aura suddenly cooled down: “How could it be official silver?”
Shen Binghuai knelt on the ground, even though he has always been upright, there was a trace of sweat on his forehead at this time: “Reporting to the emperor, Wei Chen led people to search for more than 9,000 silver ingots from the beggars. I caught the victims for interrogation, but found that they were very tight-lipped, and they were extremely calm in the face of government inquiries, not like ordinary civilians at all.”
“It’s not a commoner, could it be someone disguised?” The emperor narrowed his eyes suddenly, thinking of the missing tax silver in Jiangnan.
According to the investigation file sent by King Yu, more than three million taels of silver that Jiangnan was missing were replaced with clay lumps mixed with iron sand, but the real tax silver was nowhere to be found. And now, suddenly found a large amount of silver suspected of official silver in the capital, how could it be such a coincidence?
Princess Yide raised her hand and rubbed her eyebrows: “I’ve been out shopping for a long time, and I feel very tired. Emperor, I thought I’d go back first. You should go back to the palace earlier.” Investigations will give you more opportunities to find out the truth.
“Sister Huang, I’ll come to play with you another day.” With so many officials and silver involved, the emperor no longer had the mind to hang out.
“Okay, when the emperor has time to come again.”
The emperor left in a hurry, and Princess Yide also stood up: “Yao’er, let’s go back too.”
“Yes, grandmother.”
Mu Yunyao accompanied Princess Yide back to Qinfang Garden, Xu Yanhan accompanied him to talk, and then went down to prepare the food for dinner.
Princess Yide asked with a smile, “What would Yao’er want for dinner?”
Mu Yunyao stood up, walked up to Princess Yide, and knelt down: “Grandmother, today’s events were designed by Yaoer, take advantage of your birthday to expose the case of true and false tax and silver, and also invite grandmother I’m sorry.”
Princess Yide’s smile remained unchanged: “Get up, it’s not a big deal, why should the family care so much?”
But Mu Yunyao shook her head: “If it were someone else, I could use it without mercy, and I wouldn’t take it to heart. It’s because you are my relative that I feel uncomfortable using you.”
Princess Yide bent down and helped Mu Yunyao up: “Don’t worry about this, and besides, you are just taking advantage of my birthday, and what you have done hasn’t hurt me one bit, don’t be so concerned, tell me well Let’s talk about what’s going on.”
“Grandmother, this is a long story. At the beginning, King Yue and I suspected that the silver liang in King Jin’s hands was not coming from the right way, so we started an investigation and found that Su Jin’s husband, Yang Lian, of the Su family, was involved with King Jin. Therefore, he was used to bribe officials and change the grades of the performance appraisal, and put him in prison. After the interrogation, it was found that he was closely involved with the salt merchants in Jiangnan, and even secretly served as a bridge for the salt merchants to pave the way to the capital. The backstage he took on was His Royal Highness King Jin.”
Princess Yide suddenly said: “The news from King Ling should have been deliberately sent by you and King Yue, right?”
“Yes, the forces around King Yue are insufficient. If you want to fight King Jin alone, it may be difficult to achieve. Therefore, I told King Ling the news and asked him and the Li family to help make things worse. I just didn’t expect that after that. The emperor asked His Royal Highness King Yue to go to the south of the Yangtze River to investigate the salt tax case, but I never expected that the game between King Lu and King Jin would become so big that the embankment was blown up, affecting so many innocent people.”
“And what about the silver?”
“His Royal Highness King Yue and I also came to understand later that the salt merchants did not pay the tax and silver at all, but folded the silver that should have been paid into a silver note and secretly sent it into the hands of His Royal Highness King Jin of Kyoto. The account books and silver coins were all fake. With the protection of King Jin, the salt merchants thought that they could imitate the old example of the Yangzhou City Salt Tax Case and directly sunk the official ship carrying the salt tax and silver on the Linjiang River. Let the counterfeit silver tael sink into the water, and then you can find no evidence and be safe. However, the investigation of His Royal Highness King Yue in Jiangnan made the King of Jin and the salt merchants panic, and King Ling was staring at him. After the combination, the incident of blowing up the river embankment broke out. His Royal Highness King Yue wanted to stop it, but his ability was limited and he was unsuccessful. He could only try his best to find evidence. The fake silver taels also saved a salt merchant and pieced together the original truth from his mouth.”
Princess Yide frowned: “King Jin really went too far.” The human heart is really the most sinister thing in this world.
“Thanks to your grandmother for this matter, you moved Concubine Zhen in the palace and let the Li family take the opportunity to get rid of Concubine Zhen’s mother’s family. His Royal Highness King Yue conducted an investigation and found a large number of silver notes in the hands of Concubine Zhen’s brothers. It was hidden in secret. The silver that the emperor found on the beggars today is actually just the same as the official silver, and a part of the silver was deliberately cut off to confuse the public.”
Princess Yide thought for a moment, and then understood the reason: “The salt merchants sent silver notes into the capital, and they were secretly hidden by King Yue, so today’s silver coins were deliberately prepared by the two of you? ”
“Yes, grandmother, I was not reconciled to King Jin’s escaping guilt so easily, so I secretly prepared silver taels, and then gave false news to His Royal Highness King Ling. In fact, it was arranged by King Ling to break down the official who had silver on the beggar today. Yes, everything found out later has nothing to do with me or King Yue.”
Mu Yunyao didn’t know why she told her grandmother everything so frankly. She was afraid that her mother would think she was deeply thoughtful, but facing her grandmother, she had no such concerns at all.
“The matter of your juniors is naturally yours to solve. If you don’t have that kind of character and ability, you will only hurt more people in the end. There have always been many disputes in the heavenly family, brother. , Husband and wife, sisters… Few can go all the way to the end, no matter how you and King Yue use tactics and strategies, you must be honest with each other, and when you use others, you must also distinguish whether there is true love or not. Let the things you regret come.”
“Yes, please rest assured my grandfather, I will definitely control the proportions.” With the old lady of the Su family, Mrs. Sun, as a reference, she will not let herself go to a dead end. In life, there must be some freshness. Anyone can take advantage of it, and in the end, he will become a pawn in other people’s calculations.
Princess Yide looked at Mu Yunyao with a strong look of satisfaction in her eyes: “Yao’er, go forward well, you will definitely be able to go farther than your grandmother.”
Hearing this, Mu Yunyao’s heart tightened, and she suddenly asked, “Grandmother, if your Highness King Yue wants to fight for that seat, what percentage of the chances are there?”
“As long as King Yue is willing, that seat will be his.” Princess Yide’s tone was extraordinarily determined, “What’s more, now that you and King Yue have come together, your grandmother will spare no effort to help you if you choose him. ”
