After going to court, Bai Yutian returned to the Imperial Study Room and immediately began to practice, letting his internal energy circulate in his body and finally return it to his Dantian.
At this time, the eunuch came to report that several ministers had been waiting in the side hall for a long time.
Bai Yutian nodded. After finishing his practice, he came to the side hall and saw several ministers kneeling, about ten or so of them.
Most of these people remain neutral and have a normal relationship with the Gu family, but they are always greedy.
Although what they did is very secretive, who knows if they can escape the investigation of the Ministry of Punishment. In addition, their degree of corruption is not large. If they voluntarily surrender, the punishment may be lighter.
Moreover, now that Bai Yutian is rising strongly, it seems that he wants to suppress the Gu family. Faced with this situation, they must take sides this morning.
In fact, many people can't stand the fact that the Gu family is the only one in the family, but the Gu family is so powerful that no one dares to resist. Now that Bai Yutian is personally suppressing the Gu family, many people see hope.
Among these people, those with the highest official positions include cabinet ministers, and those with the smallest official positions include ministers of various ministries. They are all officials of considerable rank.
"Very good. I'm quite pleased that you can take the initiative to come to me. At least you still have a chance to repent." Bai Yutian looked at the people in front of him calmly and said with a half-smile, putting great pressure on everyone.
"Your Majesty, I know that what I have done is unworthy of Your Majesty. I am willing to confiscate all the embezzled money and hand it over to Your Majesty to provide disaster relief and suppress bandits. I only ask that Your Majesty be given a lighter sentence."
"In addition, there are some officials and generals who are involved with me, and they are all recorded on the list. Your Majesty, please take a look."
This person's name is Huang Yongding, a cabinet bachelor. He looks a little uneasy at the moment.
After all, it is a fact that he was corrupt.
Bai Yutian took Huang Yongding's list and took a closer look, only to find that most of these people were named Gu. These people were just collateral members of the Gu family. Many of them were given the surname Gu by Gu Taizhong to work for the Gu family.
Now, Bai Yutian finally understood that Huang Yongding was afraid of punishment, so he came with a letter of surrender, hoping to use this to reduce the punishment and show his loyalty to Bai Yutian.
These days, Bai Yutian's strength has undoubtedly given many people hope and started to move closer to Bai Yutian.
"Yes, yes, since Huang Aiqing took the initiative to come to me, I will naturally give him a lighter sentence." Bai Yutian said slowly.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
With these words, Huang Yongding felt at peace.
Although the amount he embezzled is not too large, if he is really investigated, he may not be able to avoid jail time.
After Huang Yongding, several ministers submitted letters of nomination one after another. They were basically members of the Gu family or disciples and confidants of the Gu family. Although they were small roles, they were enough to make the Gu family suffer.
After solving these matters, Bai Yutian came to the imperial study room and planned to continue practicing.
Practicing martial arts is a long process and cannot be impatient. However, in just a few days, Bai Yutian felt that he had undergone earth-shaking changes.
With his current strength, he can easily hit several grown men.
However, just when Bai Yutian was practicing with peace of mind, another piece of news broke the peace.
Eunuch Lin rushed in eagerly, his expression a little ugly, even a little panicked.
Bai Yutian's words surprised Yan Yumeng. She lived in the cold palace and had no information. Naturally, she didn't know about Bai Yutian's changes. Although she was a little surprised when she heard this, she just thought that Bai Yutian was lying to deceive herself.
.
She had almost figured out Bai Yutian's temperament and knew that it would be difficult for him to change, so she didn't plan to persuade him anymore.
"Ahem, I know it's hard for you to believe me for a while, but I will prove it to you. Now why don't you leave the cold palace with me first?"
Bai Yutian's attitude made Yan Yumeng hesitate. Seeing this, Rou'er next to her touched the corner of Yan Yumeng's clothes, which brought her back to her senses.
This dog emperor is deceiving himself again.
"Hey." With a sigh, Bai Yutian was about to cry but had no tears. How could his predecessor hurt Yan Yumeng, causing him to not believe him so much.
As expected, coaxing women is the hardest thing to do.
"Let's do this. I make an agreement with you. You will move to Lingyue Palace for seven days. Within seven days, if you can't see my changes, I will allow you to return home. How about."
These words finally moved Yan Yumeng's face. She thought carefully for a moment and then nodded.
The situation is easy to change, and the nature is hard to change. She didn't believe that she could fall in love with him within seven days.
Seeing that Yan Yumeng finally agreed, Bai Yutian was overjoyed and sent someone to take Yan Yumeng out of the cold palace and personally welcomed her to Lingyue Palace.
Lingyue Hall is extremely majestic and elegant, no less elegant than Suyue Hall.
After all, Yan Yumeng was also a noble concubine on the same level as Gu Lianxi, and both were favored by Bai Yutian.
Bai Yutian returned to the imperial study. In addition to thinking about ways to deal with the Gu family, he was also thinking about how to establish a good impression in front of Yan Yumeng.
If he wants to win over Yan Chong, he must grasp Yan Yumeng.
At this time, the eunuch came to report that several ministers had been waiting in the side hall for a long time.
Bai Yutian nodded. After finishing his practice, he came to the side hall and saw several ministers kneeling, about ten or so of them.
Most of these people remain neutral, have an average relationship with the Gu family, and belong to the neutral faction.
These people were headed by an old man with a white beard. This man was called Huang Yongding. He was a cabinet scholar and had an official rank of second rank.
It was precisely because of this person that they were able to survive in the oppression of the Gu family.
However, they had been officials for many years. Before Bai Yutian ignored the government affairs, they still could not resist the temptation and embezzled some money.
Although what they did is very secretive, who knows if they can escape the investigation of the Law Enforcement Department of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. In addition, their degree of corruption is not large. If they voluntarily surrender, the punishment may be lighter.
Moreover, now that Bai Yutian is rising strongly, it seems that he wants to suppress the Gu family. Faced with this situation, they must take sides this morning.
In fact, many people can't stand the fact that the Gu family is the only one in the family, but the Gu family is so powerful that no one dares to resist. Now that Bai Yutian is personally suppressing the Gu family, many people see hope.
"Very good. I'm quite pleased that you can take the initiative to come to me. At least you still have a chance to repent." Bai Yutian looked at the people in front of him calmly and said with a half-smile, putting great pressure on everyone.
"Your Majesty, I know that what I have done is unworthy of Your Majesty. I am willing to confiscate all the embezzled money and hand it over to Your Majesty to provide disaster relief and suppress bandits. I only ask that Your Majesty be given a lighter sentence."
"In addition, there are some officials and generals who are involved with me, and they are all recorded on the list. Please have your Majesty take a look." Huang Yongding took the lead and said, his face full of uneasiness.
After all, it is a fact that he was corrupt.
Bai Yutian took Huang Yongding's list and took a closer look, only to find that most of these people were named Gu. These people were just collateral members of the Gu family. Many of them were given the surname Gu by Gu Taizhong to work for the Gu family.
Now, Bai Yutian finally understood that Huang Yongding was afraid of punishment, so he came with a letter of surrender, hoping to use this to reduce the punishment and show his loyalty to Bai Yutian.

"Yes, yes, since Huang Aiqing took the initiative to come to me, I will naturally give him a lighter sentence." Bai Yutian said slowly.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
With these words, Huang Yongding felt at peace.
Although the amount he embezzled is not too large, if he is really investigated, he may not be able to avoid jail time.
Now with Bai Yutian's guarantee and his diligence in government affairs in the future, he might be able to avoid this punishment.
After Huang Yongding, several ministers submitted letters of nomination one after another. They were basically members of the Gu family or disciples and confidants of the Gu family. Although they were small roles, they were enough to make the Gu family suffer.
The Gu family has just lost part of the power of the City Guard Camp and the Shenji Camp. Once these lists come out, the Gu family may lose a lot more.
After solving these matters, Bai Yutian came to the imperial study room and planned to continue practicing.
Practicing martial arts is a long process and cannot be impatient. However, in just a few days, Bai Yutian felt that he had undergone earth-shaking changes.
With his current strength, he can easily hit several grown men.
However, just when Bai Yutian was practicing with peace of mind, another piece of news broke the peace.
Eunuch Lin rushed in eagerly, his expression a little ugly, even a little panicked.
"Your Majesty, something serious has happened! Go to Tai Chi Hall and have a look."
Hearing Eunuch Lin's panicked words, Bai Yutian's expression became serious. Especially when he heard the words "Tai Chi Palace", he exuded a majestic aura.
Eunuch Lin has always been calm. If it wasn't a big deal, he wouldn't be so panicked.
Seeing Eunuch Lin come in, Bai Yutian hurriedly stepped forward and asked nervously: "Eunuch Lin, what happened? What happened to Tai Chi Hall?"
Taiji Palace is the palace of Concubine Yun Gui. If anything happens in Tai Chi Palace, it is difficult not to remind Bai Yutian of Concubine Yun Gui.
"Here, Taiji Palace found something, which involves Concubine Yun and Concubine Gu."
Eunuch Lin's words made Bai Yutian frown. What happened in Taiji Hall? How could Gu Lianxi be involved?
Anything involving the Gu family will give Bai Yutian a headache.
"His Majesty……"
Soon, Eunuch Lin told Bai Yutian the whole story. After he finished speaking, Bai Yutian's face immediately darkened, and his heart was filled with anger. He guessed that this was a plot against Concubine Yun Guifei, or against the Yun family.
conspiracy.
He suppressed the Gu family and deliberately promoted the Yun family, which touched the interests of many people.
"Let Chen Hong and Cao Shan lead people to surround the Tai Chi Hall and not allow anyone to leave."
Bai Yutian gave the order and took Eunuch Lin to the Tai Chi Hall.
When we arrived at the Tai Chi Hall, the place was already crowded with people. Countless palace maids and eunuchs gathered here, pointing and pointing. When they saw Bai Yutian coming, they immediately shut their mouths.
In the Tai Chi Hall, Concubine Yun Gui sat aside with a complex expression, while Gu Lianxi kept crying. Many people gathered around Gu Lianxi to comfort her.
"Sister Yun, if you don't like my sister, just put it bluntly. Why do you use such vicious methods to curse your sister? How did you provoke your sister?" Gu Lianxi said softly, with a bit of crying, looking very...
Pitiful.
Concubine Yun Guifei bit her lip tightly, any excuses seemed pale and weak, and her face was even more panicked.
At this moment, Bai Yutian finally arrived and saw the scene in the hall.
