Chapter 1734 Wen Xu's Suspicion(1/2)

I thought it would be over quickly, but because there are too many properties in the family, just counting them may take a lot of time. But this is only the Gao family, and there are many other families such as the Duan family.

If this inspection continues, won't it be possible to replenish the national treasury?

This is probably the real purpose of the prince.

The inspection and inventory can only be done slowly. The most important thing now is to deal with the relevant people first to avoid causing trouble.

Yang Su did not dare to delay, so he escorted the Gao family away, sealed the entire mansion, and arranged heavy troops to guard it.

Guan Ning gave him the authority to mobilize troops and horses.

Money touches people's hearts and must be treated with caution.

A white seal was affixed to the vermilion door, and Yang Su looked up at the hanging black golden nanmu plaque.

Duke Shen's Mansion is over!

Yang Su was a little lucky that he was persuaded by Xue Huairen and took sides in time, otherwise he would probably end up in the same fate as the Duke of Yue.

Nearly a hundred members of the Gao family were put on shackles and anklets and sent to prison.

For this reason, many vacant rooms have been vacated by the Ministry of Punishment, but it may not be possible.

After settling down here, Yang Su rushed to the residence of Duke Duan Ang of the State of E without stopping.

They are all in Zhengfu Street. It is impossible to hide such a big movement, but the whole street is under control, where can they go...

Not long after, the Duke's Mansion of E was also sealed.

But this is not the end.

Gao Lian and Duan An were just the leaders, and there were many other families behind them, all of which were targeted for seizure.

I am destined to have no sleep tonight.

The citizens of the city were restricted to their homes and were not allowed to go out, but various noises could be heard throughout the night.

Not only were many families raided, but many people were also purged.

This cannot be solved in one day, but will last for many days.

Guan Ning's request is to get everything settled before the enthronement ceremony.

The time for the enthronement ceremony has been determined, and it will be eight days later, which is the day after Emperor Longjing's funeral.

Guan Ning, the original garrison in Beijing, also arranged for people to receive them and ensure that they had no resistance or objections.

All matters are being carried out in full swing.

On the third day, the officials who had undergone strict scrutiny were finally released from the palace and could go home.

They all went back cursing, not Guan Ning, but Emperor Long Jing.

If he hadn't convened the last morning court meeting, how could they have been dealt a blow.

Those who cannot come back will never come back. They are all lucky.

Before leaving, Guan Ning told them.

What position you were in before and what position you are in now, you can do whatever you need to do.

But this still doesn't make them feel at ease.

Except for a few people, many of them will step down as emperors and courtiers. They no longer want to be in office. They just want to be able to live a stable life, which is already lucky...

The reason why we are not touching them much now is for the sake of stability.

The government cannot be suspended because of this.

On the fourth day, the martial law in Shangjing City was slightly relaxed, the army basically withdrew from various departments and offices, and government affairs gradually returned to normal.

On the fifth day, restrictions on city residents were lifted and they could travel freely.

By this time, everyone already knew what happened.

Going to Beijing to change the situation, Dakang has a different owner.

The Xiao family has lost its dominance.

Some are happy and some are sad.

After all, it is a dynasty that has lasted for more than two hundred years. Many people cannot accept it in their hearts, and many people with traditional ideas cannot change it for a while.

There are many people who adhere to clan etiquette.

They always believed that Guan Ning was rebelling to seize the throne, rather than being orthodox, so they gathered in private to prepare for something.

There are many happy people, and Xue Fang is one of them.

"Father, is Guan Ning really going to be emperor?"

Xue Fang pulled her father Xue Qing and asked.

"Be careful!"

Xue Qing glared at his daughter.

"Although he has not officially ascended the throne, the courtiers have already addressed him as Your Majesty. Please do not call him random names."

"I see."

After saying this, Xue Fang looked a little unnatural.

The identity gap is indeed too big. She said in a low voice: "Do you think he will still look for me?"

"have no idea."

Xue Qing said: "But our Xue family should be fine. Your father and I have returned to the Ministry of Household Affairs and been appointed as Minister."

He said, and then blamed: "Your belly is still not good enough. If you want to have a child, you will be a dragon."

"Can you blame me!"

Xue Fang said dissatisfied: "Not long after we were together, he left for Beijing. How could there be a chance?"

"It depends on who is lucky, you or Yao'er."

Xue Qing was quite pleased.

Although his son is gone, he can be rich and powerful with his daughter.

Isn't a dragon's seed more fragrant than a son?

"Just wait, His Majesty will summon you to the palace after the enthronement ceremony is over."

"I hope so."

Xue Fang felt uneasy inside.

It's not that Guan Ning forgot, it's that Guan Ning is really too busy.

He had to arrange all kinds of things, so he was very busy.

Guan Ning is considering the issue of army reorganization.

At this time Feng Yuan came over and asked to see him.

He came in with the help of a eunuch. He was indeed old. Guan Ning couldn't bear to see him.

But Feng Yuan was familiar with the palace and could be trusted. Besides him, he really didn't know who to use.

But it should be almost settled.

The palace is where he will live permanently from now on, so it must be in good condition.

At present, all the guards in the palace have been replaced, and Guan Jiajun is currently in charge of this matter.

Seeing that Feng Yuan wanted to salute, Guan Ning stood up to stop him.

"You are already old. You can arrange for others to do it, so why do you have to do it yourself?"

Feng Yuan said: "This palace is where you always live. How can you do it if you don't tidy it up properly?"

"But it's almost done. Some of the original palace maids and old slaves have been sent away, and some have been left behind. I just want to ask you, how to deal with Emperor Longjing's concubines?"

Feng Yuan said: "Should they be buried, or should you stay?"

"Emperor Longjing practiced Taoism earlier, so he was pure in heart and had few desires. Many of his concubines retained their virginity. How about you..."

"I don't want it."

Guan Ning was busy waving his hands.

In fact, this was considered a normal thing, but he still couldn't accept it in his heart.

"There is no need to be buried. After Emperor Longjing dies, there is no need to drag others around. Let them go back to their respective homes."

These women are innocent.

Guan Ning was not prepared to deal with it.

"Any more questions?"

Feng Yuan said: "Emperor Long Jing found many Taoists and alchemists in order to refine medicine. What should we do with these people? Have they all been killed?"
