Early the next morning, Zhu Houcong picked Yan Song up first, and then changed his clothes. To be honest, he hadn't worn a dragon robe for a long time. He usually wore more casual clothes. Well, he didn't go to bed.
After several dynasties, Yang Ting and Lu Fang took the greatest credit.
When Lu Fang came in to change Zhu Houcong's clothes, she was startled for a moment, but then she calmed down. It seemed that His Majesty was already ready. The appearance of Lord Yan meant that His Majesty was going to have a head-on confrontation with the ministers, but he just couldn't.
I know whether Mr. Yan can withstand it.
"Get him some clothes. You can't go to court wearing this." Zhu Houcong pursed his lips. This is his main output. Without this guy, what kind of court meeting would he have? He is too lazy to argue with those guys. The key is
He didn't listen to the logic and was very angry.
"No." Lu Fang nodded slightly and called someone to get Yan Song some clothes.
So, everything is ready.
"Long live my emperor, long live the emperor." The voices of the ministers were a little weak, nonsense, how can they not be weak? After being soaked in the rain all afternoon, Zhu Houcong could see that many of them did not come to court. It was probably true.
Can't come.
"Everyone, get up." Zhu Houcong's lazy voice sounded. He was not the protagonist today, and he was too lazy to look good to them, so that was it.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." The ministers stood in line with each other. Just as they stood, someone jumped out.
"Your Majesty, I have something to report."
"Okay, we'll play it later. You guys need to meet someone first." Zhu Houcong pressed his hand and asked these guys to be quiet for a while. The protagonist hasn't even appeared on the stage yet. It would be bad to be discouraged by calling them in advance.
Yan Song walked slowly to the front of the hall and smiled at everyone, "Good morning, my lords. I haven't seen you for a while. I miss you so much."
As soon as Yan Song appeared on the stage, the whole scene immediately became excited. Everyone did not expect that His Majesty would let him come out today. This was really unexpected.
"You thief..."
"Evil thief, give me back my property."
"You, a thief, still have the nerve to stand in front of His Majesty."
Seeing that the scene was a bit out of control, Lin Yu had a cold and was a little weak. When he saw Yan Song, several fell down instantly, and a few couldn't restrain themselves and wanted to come up and fuck him, but it was okay.
Being pulled down by friends around him, the entire Hall of Supreme Harmony showed a messy scene.
"It seems that all the adults welcome me. This makes Yan Song very flattered. I even felt cold a few days ago. Now that I see you all, I don't miss it very much." Yan Song is not ashamed. He can't stand it. How can he be an official like this?
, why is the little heart so fragile?
"Wei Chen asked for an order to kill Yan Song." Mao Ji saw this scene and knelt down to ask for an order. If he dared to come out, he would not be alive.
"Wei ministers are asking for orders."
"Wei ministers are asking for orders."
...
In an instant, a large group of people fell to their knees. This pressure was really strong. It also showed that everyone hated Yan Song deeply. But it was also true that in just a few months, people had defrauded people of the money they had saved over several lifetimes. How could they?
Why don't you get angry with him? It's a sign of his good quality that he doesn't rush forward now.
"Okay, okay, don't get excited. I have learned about your affairs. Let's listen to what Yan Song has to say first." Zhu Houcong waved his hand and ignored the kneeling ministers, but it could be regarded as an appropriate way to relieve the embarrassment.
Atmosphere.
Mao Ji looked at Yan Song coldly, as if he were looking at a dead person. This grandson is too cruel. He really doesn't want to keep anything. As long as he buys it, if he doesn't sell it in time, he will lose money. The main reason is that it is too fast and he hasn't reacted yet.
Come here, the elixir worth tens of thousands of gold in your hand will become a trashy thing on the street, and your assets will naturally shrink.
Jiang Mian had a different view. Yan Song did a good job. Although he didn't know how much money he made, it must have been a lot. Although he offended many people, he must have done well for His Majesty, such as
Gu Dayong is no longer enjoying life like a fish in water.
Yesterday they were arresting people everywhere, and they are arresting people everywhere today too. If you want to cause trouble, they won't give you a chance at all. As long as there are soldiers gathered on the street, they will be arrested first. Now you don't even dare to run around in the street.
As long as Yan Song can get through it, the future will definitely be smooth. Now that he is in the cabinet, the position of chief minister will definitely not be lost. Of course, only by getting through this can he have a bright future. I can look at it rationally.
Just because he didn't suffer a loss, it doesn't mean that others can look at the problem rationally. Those people next to him want to go up and eat him directly. This is not a difficult situation.
"My lords seem to be quite enthusiastic, but I would like to ask your lords, why do you want to kill me?" The smile on Yan Song's face did not change. I will be afraid of you, and I will only be afraid that if you die, Your Majesty will take care of everything.
Leave it all to me alone, and as of now, it's all rubbish.
"Haha, you defrauded us of our money and disturbed the economy of the Ming Dynasty. What you did has seriously affected the lives of the people. Countless people have destroyed their families and died because of you. Do you think you should die?" Mao Ji sneered, you.
It's possible to go against the will of heaven.
"Oh? What Master Mao said is wrong. Master Mao thinks too highly of Yan. Yan only sells medicine to make a little money. You said that Yan defrauded you of your money. This is simply trying to incriminate Yan. Yan
He didn’t force you to buy it, but you forced Yan to sell it. As for the other things, it’s even more nonsense. The cheapest Yan’s medicine costs hundreds of taels of gold. Master Mao doesn’t think ordinary people can do it.
Can you afford this money?"
The corner of Yan Song's mouth raised a smile intentionally or unintentionally, and he still wanted to fight with me. Who is afraid of whom? Will I be afraid of you?
"Damn it, your medicine was priced at ten thousand taels of gold a month ago, but now it's only a few hundred taels. Isn't that cheating?" Mao Ji became angry. What should I do with my money? It's just wasted like this?
"It's nonsense, it's simply nonsense. That was the price a month ago, and it is the price now. Before January, the medicinal materials for making medicine were expensive. A bottle of medicine cost 5,000 taels.
It was close to five thousand taels. Yan was just making hard money. Later, he found alternative medicinal materials, and the price dropped. Yan was not afraid that you adults could not afford the medicine, so he worked hard to find alternative medicinal materials. Why are the prices now?
Now that I'm here, you're blaming Yan."
Yan Song shook his head helplessly, looking distressed, as if I was doing it for your own good, but you wanted to kill me. These days, it is getting harder and harder to be a good person.
"It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous. You, Yan Song, have earned countless amounts of money. This is the inheritance of our ancestors. I hope Your Majesty will make the decision for us."
"I hope your Majesty will make the decision."
For a time, the Hall of Supreme Harmony was filled with the cries of the ministers. Some were pretending, and some were really crying. This was the inheritance of the ancestors. It was lost in my own hands. Whoever replaced it would not collapse.
"Don't cry here. First of all, Yan didn't force you to buy it. Secondly, there is no problem with the quality of Yan's medicine. Yan said that if there is a problem with the quality of the medicine itself, it can be returned at the original price, but it
There is no problem in itself. Besides, you should ask yourselves, is the price of this medicine appropriate for the efficacy of this medicine? You know, His Majesty's serious illnesses were all cured by him. Is it possible that His Majesty's Dragon Body is not worth a mere ten thousand dollars?
"
In the final analysis, Yan Song did not come out to publicize it. The black market transactions are your own. What does it have to do with me? The official selling price here is only five thousand taels of gold. If you buy expensive ones, what does it have to do with me? Finally, and most importantly, it has nothing to do with me.
What's important is that I didn't sell fake medicine. There is Your Majesty behind me. Who dares to say that His Majesty's dragon body is not worth ten thousand gold?
The ministers below were speechless for a moment, and some of them lowered their heads in shame. Indeed, they could not refute the meaning of Yan Song's picture. Yes, they did not force them to sell, and the price did not change. Later, the medicinal materials became cheaper.
The reason for price reduction is that, but why do I always feel like something is wrong?
"Oh, even if you say so much, you still haven't covered up the fact that you are making money, right?" Mao Ji sneered, what's the use of saying so much? Just say whether you made money or not.
An inexplicable smile appeared at the corner of Yan Song's lips, which made Mao Ji panic. What the hell is this guy doing?
"Yes, Yan made some money, about ten million taels of silver. For such a large amount of money, Yan felt deeply ashamed, so he decided to hand it all over to the national treasury to fill the empty treasury. What I did
Everything I do is for the development of Ming Dynasty. I am selfless. Now that you adults are attacking me like this, it is really chilling."
Yan Song started to cry as he spoke. Don't think that you are the only one who can cry, and I can cry too. You are crying for the money you have lost, and I am crying for the justice of the country. This level changes instantly.
Indeed, the people below were dumbfounded. They did not follow the routine and handed over ten million taels of silver to the national treasury?
They had already thought about how to intervene in this way. Even if Yan Song's money-making incident was deceived, they could still interfere with him abusing his power and accepting bribes. Anyway, they would just intervene with him.
However, how can I participate now? He has transformed from a greedy and shameless businessman into a cabinet minister who is concerned about the country and the people. The number of ten million taels may not be correct, but it is not much different. After all, there are costs there. This statement is simply impeccable and straightforward.
Pick yourself out.
If His Majesty wants to deal with him, forget it. The key point is that His Majesty is on his side. Their argument is obviously untenable, but to be honest, if they are allowed to do it, they will have to struggle no matter what. Ten million taels,
How much money would it cost? How could it be possible to just donate it when you say it?
Unlike the people below, Mao Ji Xiayan and others are so old that their teeth are almost rotten. Isn't this just a matter of His Majesty's left hand taking the right hand? In the end, whether it is the money from the internal treasury or the national treasury, it is His Majesty's money.
But it is indeed better to have money in the treasury, and many things can be solved, but damn meow, this is all our money.
"Well, Yan Aiqing told me about this yesterday. Originally, I didn't agree. This is his own family property. What does it mean to turn it over to the national treasury? Those who don't know think that I am taking advantage of it, but the country is really poor.
, the treasury has been empty for a long time, I thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to accept it, just treat it as a loan from me, Yan Song's reward will be discussed later, do you have anything else to do?"
Zhu Houcong's words are the final word on this matter. Don't say it anymore. Whether you believe it or not, I believe it anyway. Yan Song donated 100 million taels for the country. This is not a gift, but a loan. Zhu Houcong is also afraid of being
These guys have been ruined, so they have a backup plan.
"Thank you Lord Yan for your generous donation. Jiang would like to say thank you to Lord Yan for all the people in the world." Jiang Mian sighed, don't even think about killing Yan Song, let alone now, even in the future, as long as your Majesty does not give up, this matter
You can blow it for a lifetime, it is just a talisman. If anyone dares to touch it, if you have the ability, you can donate 100 million to the national treasury.
There is no need to argue at this point. Your Majesty is obviously protecting Yan Song. It is useless to talk more now. They have paid real money. No matter how much we say, it is useless. If others are difficult to say or don’t want to say, then he is the only one.
Jiang Mian is here to take charge.
"Master Yan is generous."
"Master Yan is of high moral character and integrity."
"Master Yan..."
There were sparse compliments from below. Some of them must be sincere, but more of them are just words. However, although it is impossible to get everything back after entering the treasury, the treasury has money, so it is not impossible to get it out. Operation
If done right, it would still draw a little blood, so they kept their mouths shut.
Zhu Houcong thought so too, but soon he would let them know how strict the treasury's review was. If he wanted to make money from me, he would continue to practice for another eight lifetimes.
"Your Majesty, I have abused my power and arrested thousands of scholars, including Master Fei and Master Mao. Yesterday, I led troops into the city to arrest them arbitrarily. Today, it has not stopped, causing the city to roar and every tree and tree to have soldiers."
, I hope your Majesty will issue an order to arrest Gu Dayong."
Since Yan Song can't move, let Gu Dayong do it. They have to accomplish something, otherwise it won't look like they are too useless.
There was a burst of echoing voices below. Yan Song was really ruthless. They didn't know what to say for a moment. What else could you do? Don't say this is a legitimate transaction. Even if it is an unfair transaction, if you can steal 100 million taels.
If you give your majesty the silver, your majesty will probably protect you to the death. This is a normal thing. The treasury is not empty every day or two. It doesn't matter how you got the money, just have it.
Yan Song is now the Fudo Ming King, and no one can touch him. The only option is to turn the blame on Gu Dayong, who is indeed arrogant.
"Oh? There is such a thing. I approved the arrest of the scholars. These people actually gathered to make trouble and spread rumors. They should be arrested. But why did they arrest Fei Hong? That's what I said.
Why haven't I seen him in a few days? Now I want to talk to him properly. Don't worry, I will let him go immediately."
Zhu Houcong narrowed his eyes and said a few things about Gu Da in a nonchalant manner, but they were all irrelevant and there was no abuse of power. These were all approved by me. Fei Hong and the others might have just arrested the wrong person.
These people, as long as they compromise for the first time, it will be much easier later. Yan Song can't move. Gu Dayong has made tens of millions for me, so you can move?
