Chapter 80 Speaking ill of the prince

Wu Yuan frowned and looked at Mamasang. He did not expect that at this time, Mamasang was unexpectedly strong.

He couldn't help but raise his head and glance at Wu Zheng.

At this time, Wu Zheng's expression was gloomy, but there was not much panic in his eyes.

It seems that Wu Zheng is sure that Mamasang will not sell him.

"Foolish woman, do you know that you have already committed the crime of deceiving the emperor. If you don't take it seriously, you will implicate the nine tribes." Wu Yuan reminded.

Mamasang was still trembling, but her mouth was very hard.

"Everything said by the folk girl is true. The owner of Phoenix Restaurant is a folk girl. And the folk girl is alone, how can the nine tribes talk about it."

Seeing this, Wu Yuan shook his head helplessly, "You are really hopeless."

"I don't even want to think about how you, a common woman, buy and sell the family members of criminal officials?"

Although most of the guilty ministers will have a difficult ending and this matter is tacitly acknowledged, it does not mean that this matter can be brought to the table.

The most important thing is that for some people, the emperor thought of their hard work and merit, and ordered that no harm be done to their families, and even their homes were not confiscated.

But there happened to be such a criminal in the account book.

Then this is a big deal.

Is this something that a little girl would dare to do?

Faced with Wu Yuan's questioning, Mamasang didn't say anything, looking like a dead pig not afraid of boiling water.

At this time, Emperor Wu suddenly said: "Second brother, what do you think of this matter?"

Wu Zheng knew that Emperor Wu had already suspected him.

But as long as there is no actual evidence, he will not be able to admit it even if he dies.

"Father, we will investigate this matter more thoroughly, but we cannot let go of Wu Yuan's robbery of civilian girls."

Even now, Wu Zheng still doesn't forget to step on Wu Yuan.

Little did they know, this would become the fuse that ignited Emperor Wu's anger.

"That's enough, do you really think I can't see it?" Emperor Wu threw the account book directly on Wu Zheng's face.

But Wu Zheng still said stubbornly: "Father, I really don't know anything."

Emperor Wu looked disappointed.

Putting this matter on others is just violating a taboo and touching people who shouldn't be touched.

But there is another level of crime placed on Wu Zheng, that is, forming a clique for personal gain.

Taking advantage of the convenience of a restaurant to win over officials, and the amount of money involved in the transaction was huge, forming a party for personal gain, would have touched Emperor Wu's bottom line.

This is also the main reason why Wu Zheng could not admit it even if he was beaten to death.

Looking at the tough-talking Wu Zheng, Emperor Wu's eyes were sharp, but after a moment, he said: "Drag this woman out and behead her. All the silver coins in the Phoenix Restaurant will be confiscated. The fine will be according to this account book. If you can't find the silver coins,

, just keep checking.”

"Leave this matter to Wu Yuan."

After hearing Emperor Wu's decree, Wu Yuan and Wu Zheng had different expressions.

Wu Yuan couldn't help but feel disappointed, because he heard that Emperor Wu meant to let Wu Zheng go.

Even if Wu Zheng denies this matter, as long as the account book is there, Wu Zheng can still be traced.

But Emperor Wu just wanted Wu Zheng to spit out all his money.

Although this punishment was enough for Wu Zheng to drink a cup, in Wu Yuan's opinion, it was too light.

Wu Zheng also heard what Emperor Wu meant, but he was not very happy. On the contrary, he felt that Emperor Wu was too partial to Wu Yuan, so he left this matter to Wu Yuan.

In this way, Wu Yuan can make a lot of money from both the Phoenix Restaurant and the oil and water in it.

But now that the matter has come to this, Wu Zheng has nothing to say.

Tonight, it can be said that I shot myself in the foot.

"Okay, you two can go down." Emperor Wu seemed to be very tired.

"Yes!" Wu Yuan and Wu Zheng agreed at the same time, and then left together.

As for Mama-san, she was dragged down as if she had lost her soul. The only thing waiting for her was death.

As for Wu Yuan's rape of civilian girls, naturally no one mentioned it.

Wu Zheng didn't say anything more, but he knew that if he continued to say it, it might not be as simple as just confiscating his silver.

However, not long after the two came out, Manager Su chased them out.

"Your Highness, please stay. Your Majesty still has a decree."

Wu Zheng's expression changed, and his heart sank to the bottom, knowing that the real punishment for him was coming.

Wu Yuan's eyes also lit up, and he was vaguely looking forward to it.

"By God's blessing, the emperor issued an edict saying that the second prince Wu Zheng has been unwell recently and is not mentally strong enough to go to court to discuss affairs. The second prince is allowed to recuperate at home and is not allowed to go out. I hereby express my gratitude."

Although Wu Yuan was disappointed for a while after hearing the decree, he also knew that this was probably the limit of what Emperor Wu could do, so he put Wu Zheng under house arrest in disguise.

I feel relieved when I think about it, if I really dig into this matter.

It was also a disgrace to the royal family and even the entire Dawu family.

Therefore, it is the best way to end this matter.

"Your Highness, please accept the order." Seeing Wu Zheng's delay, General Manager Su couldn't help but remind him.

Wu Zheng's eyes were sinister. If eyes could kill, I'm afraid the world would be destroyed right now.

"My son, I accept the order and thank my father for your concern." Wu Zheng said through gritted teeth.

Manager Su said earnestly and thoughtfully: "Your Highness, you must understand His Majesty's good intentions. Your Majesty still has oral instructions. I hope you can reflect on yourself."

"Yes, Wu Zheng knows about it, and it's up to you to help Eunuch Su."

After Wu Zheng finished speaking, he turned and left.

But when passing by Wu Yuan, he said sadly: "We'll see."

The corners of Wu Yuan's mouth raised. No matter what, Wu Zheng would not be seen in a short time.

Congratulations, this is the biggest harvest tonight.

"His Royal Highness, Your Majesty also has a message for you." Manager Su suddenly said.

Wu Yuan was stunned, "What are you talking about?"

Manager Su looked around to make sure there was no one around, and then whispered: "His Royal Highness can make the decision on his own regarding the construction of an instant noodle factory."

Hearing Manager Su's words, Wu Yuan suddenly became happy.

Apparently, this was compensation for him.

Although he had the final say before, after all, the Ministry of Industry still had to intervene, and even after the factory was built, people had to be sent in.

Well now, this is truly delegating power to him.

Even the Ministry of Industry can't do anything small.

Apparently, Emperor Wu already knew about the plot between Wu Zheng and Qiao Dashan.

As expected of an emperor, he knew these things in such a short period of time even though he never mentioned Qiao Dashan during the whole process.

It also allowed Wu Yuan to see the horror of Emperor Wu's intelligence network.

"Eunuch Su, please tell me something. I will not let my father down. The instant noodle factory will definitely benefit me, Dawu."

Manager Su is now very optimistic about Wu Yuan, so he said with a smile: "I will definitely bring the prince's words to you, but there is another sentence that I don't know whether to say or not."
