What exactly did the Zhao family do?

That night, the queen tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, constantly recalling the past in her mind.

She always knew that her father boasted of having the power of following the dragon, and always thought that he could reach the height of Prince Xikang. Even if it was not, he would at least be comparable to Duke Wu, Duke Zhenguo and others.

Unfortunately, after the emperor ascended the throne, he did not give anything more than a title of Gu Engong. The biggest dissatisfaction seemed to start with asking for the current princess's mansion...

That night, the queen stayed asleep all night, and the emperor was also unable to fall asleep. I just hope that the queen could stop the Zhao family's cliff, otherwise... for the sake of stability, he would not mind taking ruthless measures.

The next morning, Guen and his son were ready to go to court. The eunuch who arrived early in the morning blocked the two at the gate, "The Empress has an order to order everyone in Guen's Mansion to not leave the mansion today."

Zhao Yu and Zhao Ling and his son looked at each other, and Zhao Ling asked, "Do you know what's going on?"

The eunuch bowed and said, "I don't know that the Empress has informed the Emperor that Mrs. Zhao is ill and that Guen Gong's Mansion will not attend court today."

The father and son frowned slightly, and had a vague premonition in their hearts.

Zhao Ling was so beautiful that someone came forward to invite the eunuch who was passing the message to have tea. The eunuch quickly refused, looking upright.

Back in the study, Zhao Yu paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, and after several speculations in his heart, he suddenly stopped and looked at Zhao Ling, "Where has the flaw left recently?"

Zhao Ling kept looking at the bonsai at hand, reached out and pinched off the dazzling flower on the branch and took it to his hands to play with it. After a while, he said, "He Qing has been resting for two days."

"What's the meaning?"

Zhao Yu was so angry that he was still paying attention to what He Qing did at this time, and wait... He Qing?

"He Qing was ordered to investigate the assassination of King Yong'an. He had been in the yamen for a long time. Now he went back to rest, could he have found something?"

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that there was such a possibility. The emperor attached great importance to the King of Yong'an. If he had not found out what he could hand in, He Qing would never rest.

Zhao Ling looked up, "I will naturally know the reason when I wait for the queen."

It’s useless to think more now.

The queen arrived soon after she heard that the female family in the mansion came to pay a visit with a smile, but the queen didn't even see Mrs. Zhao. She went straight into the study and threw the account book on the desk without waiting for Zhao Yu to speak.

"You can see it for yourself."

Zhao Yu stepped forward and picked up the account book and just looked through the first page, he was shocked, "Where did you get it?"

That was the account book of Guen Duke's Mansion. Every note recorded on it was all the invisible accounts, and it was always well hidden.

Zhao Ling stepped forward to take the account book and looked as if he looked ashen. He turned his heart and looked at the queen, and asked almost confirmation: "The emperor gave it to you."

The queen did not have her own power, except the emperor would not make a second guess.

"The account book was given by the emperor." The queen took a deep breath and looked at her father. "Today my daughter passed by, I just want to know that besides the records in the account book, does her father and brother have anything else to do?"

As he said that, he added: "But if you find out, you will be able to kill the whole family."

Facing the queen's questioning, Zhao Yu was furious, "Is this your father's attitude to speak? Queen!"

The queen was anxious, angry and helpless, "Father, do you still want to do this at this time? This is just an account book. If everything in the account book is true, what should the Zhao family do?"

The emperor hates corruption the most, let alone being greedy so much.

Zhao Yu closed his eyes and took a deep breath, suppressing all the unwillingness and resentment in his heart, "Just say, what is the emperor going to deal with the Zhao family?"

The queen said in a deep voice: "The emperor is concerned about the face of the two children and is unwilling to deal with this matter openly. If the father and brother figure it out, the emperor is waiting for you in the palace."

"I dare not say anything else, but I can still ensure that my father has a glory in this life."

Zhao Yu turned to look at her, a sneer slowly appeared on the corner of his mouth, and soon the sneer became sarcasm. Zhao Yu laughed loudly, and then his eyes, like an eagle, stared at the queen, and said word by word:

"He was just a down-and-out prince back then. My Zhao family treated him well and he had all his help. He was sent to Yongcheng. Even though he knew that Yongcheng was barren and desolate, the Zhao family still decided to go with his family to protect him."

"When he was the most difficult time, my Zhao family was unyielding, and he let him ask for manpower, material resources and financial resources. Now he hates corruption?"

Seeing Zhao Yu's expression, the queen was a little panicked and subconsciously took two steps back. Zhao Yu continued: "In those years, he wanted to be a good prince who was dedicated to the people. Did he think that the money he spent was corrupt from the Zhao family?"

"If you use it, you won't admit it?"

"He wants to take the initiative. Knowing that if he fails, the entire clan will be killed. The Zhao family didn't frown and helped him. How long has it been to sit on the throne? It's not like this when he crosses the river and destroys the bridge."

The Zhao family felt too unwilling, and they felt that the emperor enjoyed too many benefits from their Zhao family. Once they gained power, they not only did not share the blessings, but they even suppressed them everywhere, making them the laughing stock of Kyoto step by step, and also made them feel that all their previous efforts had become a joke.

What does it mean now? Because they stretch their hands a little longer, they will become rich and idle people?

No, maybe there is no wealth.

The queen was subconsciously convinced by them. Soon she smiled again, took two steps forward, and said lightly: "Father, even if the emperor was in a down-and-out then, he was still a prince and still a person that the Zhao family could not reach."

"The emperor went to Yongcheng and the Zhao family followed him. Could it be that he thought that there was no way out in Kyoto? Although Yongcheng was not rich, he could rely on the emperor's power and be glorious?"

In fact, the Zhao family did live like fish in water in those years, and it was only one person, and the entire Yongcheng was crawling at their feet.

Both Zhao Yu and Zhao Ling felt it was unacceptable to the queen's words. Zhao Ling said coldly, "Even so, without the Zhao family, can those local snakes in Yongcheng surrender so quickly?"

"Without the Zhao family, he can have today, and 80% of the possibility that he has already been in Yongcheng."

The queen clenched her fist under her sleeve and asked, "He is the king, you are the minister. Don't you know the difference between the king and the minister?"

Zhao Yu suddenly stood up and said excitedly: "No matter what we did, it is for you and for the eldest prince."

"It's not your incompetence to do this. If you had the woman in the harem give birth to a son one after another and threaten the position of the eldest prince, how could we do this?"

"You know that the emperor's health is getting worse day by day, but you don't think about your son at all. Not only that, you also let the eldest prince suppress his uncle's family everywhere and alienate him from the Zhao family. You are extremely stupid."
