The Prodigal Son’s Happy Life - Chapter 748
[Chapter 748: Self-destruction of eight hundred]
It is not common for the emperor to be angry.
After all, His Majesty is a benevolent king, and it was on such an occasion.
Therefore, all the civil and military officials lowered their heads and did not dare to make a sound, for fear of attracting His Majesty’s attention. In short
, if anyone is noticed by His Majesty at this time, nothing good will happen.
However, it seems that some people don’t think so.
For example, Fang Xiu had no intention of evading, but walked forward openly.
He walked up to Emperor Chu, stood upright, bowed respectfully, and said: “Your Majesty, I have a gift for you, to cleanse you from the wind and dust!”
There are no unnecessary words, very much. Straightforward.
When everyone heard this, their hearts trembled.
They didn’t know what gift Fang Xiu had prepared, or what Fang Xiu wanted to do.
But they knew one thing, as long as Fang Xiu wanted to do something, the civil and military officials above the court would definitely be in trouble!
Sure enough,
Emperor Chu looked at Fang Xiu and didn’t know what he thought of. He raised his brows slightly, showed an expression of interest on his face, and asked, “Oh? What gift?”
King Kang next to him saw this scene and his teeth were filled with hatred. It was itchy, but there was nothing I could do.
Fang Xiu’s next move made him want to throw Fang Xiu into the sea.
Fang Xiu took out a letter from his arms, presented it to Emperor Chu with both hands, and then said with a smile on his face: “Your Majesty, this gift is one hundred thousand taels of silver, and where did this one hundred thousand taels of silver come from? Please take a look! “
One hundred thousand taels of silver! “
?
This is really not a small amount!
Fang Xiu has always been a tough guy, so why would he give himself money?
Still one hundred thousand taels, so much! ?
Emperor Chu didn’t know what he thought of. A cold light flashed in his eyes. He took the letter from Fang Xiu’s hand, opened it, and read it from top to bottom.
Fang Xiu stood aside, with a faint smile on his face, and said: “Your Majesty, all this money was given to me by the ministers above the court.
I don’t know why, why do these adults have so much money?” He was so generous and paid so much money just to see me. There was even an adult from the official department who
even
gave me 10,000 taels of silver to ask for advice on some insignificant matters!
I have written down the names of these adults on the letter, and asked your Majesty to take a look at it.
Of course, almost all of these adults are here today. Whether this matter is true, and if it is true, what is going on, your Majesty can. Ask them personally.”
As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent instantly.
Immediately, everyone stared at Fang Xiu with disbelief.
They never expected that Fang Xiu would be so courageous and dare to reveal these things in front of all the civil and military officials.
They never thought that Fang Xiu would be so crazy and dare to offend so many civil and military ministers at the same time.
Do you have any face in this court from now on?
Moreover, it is not just the civil and military officials above the court who are shameless, but also His Majesty!
All the civil and military officials above the court have this kind of virtue. How should Your Majesty deal with it?
We can’t all be sacked!
This matter is simply killing one thousand enemies and damaging one’s own eight hundred. From beginning to end, no one benefits.
This Fang Xiu is simply a lunatic! madman!
All the civil and military officials were shouting crazily in their hearts.
At this moment, Emperor Chu had already read the entire letter.
He didn’t say a word, and his expression didn’t even change.
However, anyone who is a little familiar with Emperor Chu will understand that this is a sign of extreme anger.
There’s no way this thing could have gone through so easily!
Even above the court, whether it is the Liubu Temple, the Dali Temple, or the Honglu Temple, I am afraid that it will have to be replaced all over again!
This is the only way to get rid
of the other’s mother!
At this moment, no matter how well-educated and noble a person is, looking at the scene happening in front of him, he can’t help but curse in his heart.
They really couldn’t understand Fang Xiu’s thinking.
Is this thing of any benefit to you? ?
Fang Xiu seemed to have just done a trivial thing, as if he didn’t feel anything. With a faint smile on his face, he said: “By the way, Your Majesty, I have already sent someone to deliver all the one hundred thousand taels of silver.” Here,
all the banknotes have been changed into silver. Please take a look.”
When Emperor Chu heard this, he looked at Fang Xiu and nodded lightly, still without saying a word.
Because he was too angry to speak.
This is just over a month, just over a month.
These people donated as much as one hundred thousand taels of silver to a minister of the auxiliary country!
What about before?
Emperor Chu believed in the three pavilion elders.
They didn’t dare to accept money blatantly. Even if they received some money, it was only a small amount.
But those ministers, ministers, Yuanwailang, chief ministers, governors, governors, prefects, county magistrates
and even arresters and heads.
They add up to one year!
How much money should there be!
I’m afraid it’s much more than the national treasury’s revenue in a year!
You know, in the past few years, the imperial court had no money for anything.
There was even a period of time when they were so embarrassed that even the soldiers in the four northern continents could not pay their salaries!
Unexpectedly, never expected that all the money would be in their hands!
Emperor Chu took a deep breath, but still couldn’t restrain the anger in his heart.
He could accept a little money from the civil and military officials above the court.
As long as it’s not too much, even if 30% goes to the hands of civil and military officials and 70% goes to the treasury, he is completely able to accept it.
He knows that if the water is clear, there will be no fish.
Many things are not as imagined!
But judging from the letter that Fang Xiu submitted, it’s not just 30%, 50%, 60%, or 70%!
That’s too much! unacceptable!
Emperor Chu had just returned from a prosperous place like Jiangnan Road, and what he saw along the way put him in a good mood.
In addition, the sweet potato incident has been confirmed, and he is extremely happy. He feels that he has accomplished something before going to meet his ancestors.
However, when he saw the letter presented by Fang Xiu, he felt that
he was simply a fool!
The fool who has been deceived by these civil and military officials for decades!
Just as he was thinking this, Fang Xiu’s voice sounded again.
“Your Majesty, the money has arrived, please take a look!”
Emperor Chu nodded when he heard the voice, and subconsciously looked in the direction of Fang Xiu’s finger.
After seeing those treasure boxes clearly, I saw clearly the silver inside those treasure boxes.
He couldn’t restrain his anger again,
there was so much anger! ?
