The centipede insect is dead but not stiff, not to mention that the Lin family also has Prince Shun.
Although King Shun was still involved in this shocking corruption case, his involvement was not deep.
Because Lin Shilang, who stood up for King Shun, died, and his supporter Zhong Shangshu was pinched by King Shun because of his wife. Zhong Shangshu did not spit out his words for the sake of the only son and grandson who could survive, and he took everything on his own, and finally couldn't bear it
He died after being tortured severely.
The two main people involved in the case are dead, and there is no evidence to prove their deaths. The other soldiers and crab generals are just working. They only heard that they were related to King Shun, but there was no evidence to convict King Shun.
The emperor felt clear in his heart and expressed that he was very disappointed with King Shun. In the peaceful and prosperous times, you can be greedy as much as you want. In the past few years, natural and man-made disasters have caused the treasury to be empty, and the officials were owed their salaries, but he was still greedy so much!
He did not punish King Shun harshly. One was that King Shun's mother-in-law was his beloved concubine, and King Shun was his most beloved son. The other was that if King Shun fell, there would be no one to balance the power of the prince. The prince's family is the only one in the family.
This is not a good sign.
As a result, Prince Shun was only reprimanded. However, there was a major change in the Ministry of Household Affairs. The Minister of Household Affairs was the emperor's confidant, and the Vice Minister was the prince's confidant. The prince took the opportunity to insert many low-level officials and controlled half of the Ministry of Household Affairs.
Dongming Ziyu gathered up everything he could about what happened in the court through the routine family meeting after dinner every day.
Old Man Dong, who has always had no sense of existence, sighed with emotion: "It's so cruel. It's even scarier than when we were fleeing the famine. These nine tribes confiscated their homes and exiled them. It will be difficult for them to recover for several lifetimes."
Mrs. Qian's face was a little pale, she patted her chest and said with lingering fear: "You can still kill people and silence them in the sky prison. It's really... ugh!"
Dongming Ziyu took out a wooden box and said, "Those things have nothing to do with us, let's talk about something happy."
Mrs. Qian smiled and said, "Is this the money you earned from selling the dock land?"
Dongming Ziyu flattered her and said, "Mom is so smart, you guessed it right."
After opening the small wooden box, it was revealed that it was full of banknotes. Everyone was silent for a while. This was the first time they had seen so many banknotes. It was so... great!
Last year's New Year was a bit tight, so today I will celebrate a prosperous New Year. Although I won't buy anything expensive, I will have money in hand and feel confident.
Dongming Ziyu said: "Father, mother, I propose to distribute the dividends from each house now. The court is dealing with a large number of officials. There must be many houses in the capital. Thanks to the relationship between Nan Anhou and his father-in-law, maybe we can
We grabbed a few places. Houses in the capital are in short supply, and if this happens, many powerful people are also watching."
Both Li and Liu looked at Shangguan Ruoli and said, "Fourth brother and sister, I have to leave this matter to you to worry about!"
Shangguan Ruoli said: "Okay, tomorrow morning I will send a few children to Shangguan Mansion to say hello to their father. Then someone will send someone to send my heart to my sister, so that she must pay attention to it and let the dentists in their house pay attention to it.
, there is a good yard left for us."
Both Li and Liu smiled happily and thanked Shangguan Ruoli repeatedly.
Dong Youtian and Dong Youliang took out their account books and began to calculate the accounts. The crackling sound of the abacus was like a cheerful note hitting everyone's heart, and everyone smiled.
Suddenly, there were rapid footsteps outside, and Shuan Zhu ran in, "The Royal Forest Army is coming and has surrounded our house!"
Everyone was shocked and stood up one after another, "What's going on?"
Mrs. Qian was trembling with fear and her face was as white as paper. She quickly covered the banknote box and handed it to Dongming Ziyu, "Hide it quickly! I heard that the officials and bandits are a family, don't let them snatch it away!"
Dongming Ziyu didn't know what happened, so he calmly handed the banknote box to Shangguan Ruoli and said to everyone: "Don't panic yet, I'll go to the front yard to deal with it, you all go back and hide the valuable things in your room."
I'm hiding it. I'm afraid that if I search something, someone will take advantage of me. The main thing is to look for it and hide it quickly if there is anything strange, so as not to be framed."
"Okay!" Everyone agreed and ran out of the room one after another and went back to their own yards to tidy up.
Dongming Ziyu patted Shangguan Ruoli's hand and said, "Take the child back to the yard."
Shangguan Ruoli nodded, ran back to the courtyard with Ling Yue and Wu Lang, went back to their rooms, and checked the rooms.
Shangguan Ruoli put all the banknote boxes and valuables into the space. If he didn't find anything inappropriate in the bedroom, he went to the study in his yard.
As soon as I entered the study, I heard neat footsteps running into the yard.
Someone shouted: "Don't move! Search under orders! Those who resist will be killed without mercy!"
