Chapter 62
What! His Royal Highness gave you too much?
puff--
After learning the truth of the matter, Tang Shuheng's chest felt tight, and he was so angry that he spurted out a mouthful of blood.
"Tsk, tsk!" Tang Yu chuckled.
As everyone knows, Fang Shouxiao was from Dongjun in the Tang Dynasty.
The Fang family was originally a scholarly family, but it was a pity that they were robbed by robbers. All the gold and silver treasures were taken away by the robbers. In addition, during the bad years, many people in the Fang family starved to death.
Fang Shouxiao managed to survive all the way before escaping to the capital.
It happened that Fang Shouxiao met Tang Shuheng and wanted to plot against Tang Yu. Zhuge Yun gave Fang Shouxiao one hundred taels of silver and asked Fang Shouxiao to organize people.
Fang Shouxiao was quite prestigious among the many refugees. In addition, Zhuge Yun promised that anyone who participated in the impeachment of the prince would receive one tael of silver. Soon Fang Shouxiao organized thousands of refugees.
Just now, Fang Shouxiao scolded Tang Yu. Unexpectedly, Tang Yu didn't follow the routine at all and gave him a hundred taels of gold.
Fang Shouxiao was shocked when he saw that Tang Yu actually gave him one hundred taels of gold.
There are seven countries in the world, and each country has its own currency, but the common currency in the world is gold and silver. In the Tang Dynasty, one tael of gold could be exchanged for 10 taels of silver.
In other words, Tang Yu giving him one hundred taels of gold was equivalent to giving him one thousand taels of silver, which was exactly ten times what Tang Shuheng gave him.
Not only that, as long as the thousands of refugees at the scene tell the truth about the matter, each one can be given one or two gold.
Money can make a fool of himself, and Tang Yu's spending was ten times that of Tang Shuheng's. Naturally, they all turned against him and surrendered to Tang Yu's command.
Fang Shouxiao was afraid that he would be beheaded if he deceived the emperor, so without any hesitation, Tang Yu put on Fang Shouxiao the yellow mandarin gifted by the Emperor of Tang Dynasty. With the yellow mantle on his body, Fang Shouxiao was still afraid of his hair!
Moreover, Secretary Tang had threatened him just now, and Fang Shouxiao was so angry that he told the whole story.
"The third child!"
Knowing that all this was done by Tang Shuheng to set up Tang Yu, Tang Emperor Long Yan was furious.
"Father, please calm down. Father, please calm down!"
Seeing Emperor Tang's thunderous rage, Tang Shuheng shivered in fright and quickly knelt on the ground.
He never expected that Tang Yu would spend a lot of money to conquer all these refugees, which was far beyond his expectation.
Emperor Tang was not angry and said proudly: "Third brother, as the imperial brother, you dare to bribe the refugees to slander your ninth brother. How brave you are!"
"Father, I know I'm wrong, I know I'm wrong!" Tang Shuheng was frightened.
He didn't dare to make any rebuttal, after all, the truth had been revealed. If he refused to admit it and Emperor Tang got angry, he would basically be crippled.
In order to reduce the punishment, Tang Shuheng hurriedly said: "Father, my son, this is also for the stability of our country, the Tang Dynasty!"
"For the stability of the Tang Dynasty? That's nonsense!" Tang Yu did not give Tang Shuheng any face.
Tang Shuheng was covered in cold sweat. He explained: "Father, think about it, even if the crayfish in our Datang are overflowing, we have so many people in the Tang Dynasty and we have to export to six countries. In less than two months, all the crayfish in the Tang Dynasty will be overrun."
All the lobsters will be eaten! When the refugees have no food rations, it will definitely arouse public outrage!"
"In two months at most, the imperial court will need to come forward to provide disaster relief! It seems that the ninth brother has eased the pressure on the imperial court, but in fact it has buried a hidden danger for the imperial court!"
"Third brother, you really put a high hat on me!" Tang Yu's mouth twitched fiercely.
"Strong words!"
