famous eldest daughter

Chapter 879 Trafficking
Xiao Yu finished speaking, and the emperor's eagle eyes flashed towards the boy on the ground.

But the boy's expression remained unchanged. He only slightly moved the slender bamboo-like fingers that were half-shrunk in his sleeves. He pursed a sneer at the corner of his mouth and said, "If this slave has been subjected to those basins of cold water, I think it will be better to rely on this slave." If you are poor, you will die, but now that the slave has entered the palace, Weiyuan Hou cannot cure the slave of the death penalty. If he wants to cure the slave of the death penalty, he will have to live after the slave leaves the imperial study room!"

His words were mysterious, and since he entered the royal study room, except for calling himself a slave, the emperor could not see any trace of a slave in him. His aura made him more like a censor.

And his eyes that are hard to see through... eyes that are like a layer of thick fog on the sea...

After the boy finished speaking, the emperor looked at him with an even more gleaming look in his eyes.

Xiao Yu, however, had a look on his face with disdain and glanced at him, "Hey!" In an instant, he came up and said, "Let's see what you can get. It's as if you have mastered some secret that can kill Weiyuan Hou." ! You have to know that no matter how he comes from a merchant background, he is still a royal marquis!"

The young man's face did not change when he heard this, and he said with the cold expression he had always had since entering the door: "This servant indeed holds the weak point of Weiyuan Marquis."

As the words fell, the emperor's heart skipped a beat, and his brows furrowed.

"Previously, I had no chance to enter the palace, so I could only keep this secret in my heart, thinking that when the evidence was sufficient and the opportunity was right, I would reveal it to the censor. But now, God has shown mercy and gave it to the servant. Holy opportunity.”

As if attracted by his words, Xiao Yu changed his previous careless expression and said to the boy: "You said you have mastered the secret of Weiyuan Hou's Achilles' heel? What secret?"

The boy's words were already making people's hearts beat, but when Xiao Yu's words were added, his tone was urgent and solemn, and the atmosphere suddenly condensed.

Under the gaze of the emperor's slightly narrowed eagle eyes, the boy's face remained unchanged, and his tone was the same as before, and he said slowly: "The business of the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion is an open and aboveboard normal business, but these Year, has the emperor ever thought about whether this kind of business can support the wealth of the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion?"

"My servant is the eldest son in the family. I have two younger sisters and one younger brother. Based on my appearance, Your Majesty knows that my younger brothers and sisters are pretty good-looking."

When the boy boasted, his tone was as calm as ever. Xiao Yu, who was still solemn at first, couldn't help but laugh.

But this smile could not disturb the frozen air above his head.

The emperor's face became increasingly livid, "You continue!" He said to the boy.

The servant glanced at Xiao Yu, and the mist in his eyes moved slightly. He turned to look at the emperor and continued: "Just three months ago, my younger brother and sister disappeared together."

When he mentioned the word "missing", the emperor's mind flashed, remembering Cuijing's younger brother and sister, who were kidnapped by the Gan family and sent to a ship out to sea after the Gan family had a big quarrel with Marquis Weiyuan.

Why should it be sent to a ship out to sea...

Doubts arose in my mind, and the boy's voice continued to sound.

"My younger brother and sister are missing, and the family is wailing miserably. I didn't mention it. I searched for various clues to find my younger brother and sister, but I found the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion all the way. The illustrious Marquis Mansion. How can someone like this minion find it?" At that time, the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion needed to fill up its servants, so the servant took this opportunity. With his good calligraphy and accounting skills, he was spotted by the steward of the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion and got the opportunity to work in the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion."

"Even more so. God has mercy on me. After only a few days in the palace, my servant was recommended by the housekeeper and was reused by Marquis Weiyuan. Although he didn't have much trust from Marquis Weiyuan because he was new here, the accounting office is different from other positions after all. I have plenty of opportunities to get in touch with the business of Weiyuan Marquis and Weiyuan Marquis Mansion."

"What this servant is taking care of is a business that is well known to everyone in the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion. The dividends from this business have been shown in the account books for several years, but they are meager. But in these years, not to mention how the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion has spent its own money, just Every time when the court had trouble, the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion helped with huge sums of money, but the business alone cannot afford such money."

As the boy uttered each word, the emperor's expression gradually became astonishing.

Glancing at the emperor, Xiao Yu said with a hint of unruliness, "You shouldn't be trying to say that the business done by the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion is actually human trafficking, right?"

The words "human trafficking" had already occurred to the Emperor's mind because of what Cuijing and the boy said, but when Xiao Yu opened his mouth to say it, he couldn't help but feel his heart twitch.

Human Trafficking...

The eyes that looked at the young man became more and more focused.

"That's right, the Weiyuan Hou Mansion, from our ancestors to Weiyuan Hou's generation, the fundamental business is human trafficking, and it is to sell our people overseas to make huge profits!"

Even though he stared at the boy for a moment and listened to what he said, even though he already had the answer in his mind, what he was going to say, the emperor was still so excited by the words "human trafficking" that the boy admitted that his blood suddenly filled his body. The excitement boils.

Human trafficking, damn human trafficking overseas!

The moment the young man finished speaking, the extremely silent air in the imperial study room seemed to be frozen. The young man seemed to have deliberately left time for the emperor to react and digest the matter, and did not continue to speak.

After about a cup of tea, the emperor cleared his throat with a cough, and said to the boy: "Do you know what crime is to falsely accuse an important official of the court?"

The angry breath swept out overwhelmingly as the words came out.

The boy was not intimidated by Long Yan at all, and only nodded seriously, "Your Majesty has asked this servant before, and I also answered, I know the death penalty! But what I said is not false! I know that your Majesty is wise, That’s why I dare to report it to the emperor. There is not a single false word in what I said, and the emperor will know it once he checks it."

"In addition... I wonder if Madam Weiyuan Hou came to the palace to ask for your help in finding the missing Miss Yingxiu in Weiyuan Hou Mansion. Regardless of whether it is true or not, I have to admit that Miss Yingxiu was kidnapped by a minion. Yes, the person has been sent to the freight terminal of Weiyuanhou Mansion in Tianjin where people are trafficked privately."

"Why did you kidnap her?" Xiao Yu looked confused.

"Marquis Weiyuan sold the slave's younger brother and sister. The slave knew that he was the one who committed the evil, but he didn't know when he could make his heinous crimes public and avenge the slave's younger brother and sister. Therefore, the slave wanted to let Marquis Weiyuan suffer the consequences of his own evil. He didn't pay attention and put his daughter on the ship that was sent overseas. One day after the ship departed, the servant looked for an opportunity to tell him that someone had seen Miss Yingxiu boarding the ship and that he wanted to see Marquis Weiyuan. Heartbreaking pain when I heard the news!”

As he spoke, his expression, which had always remained unchanged, finally showed the hatred of gritted teeth.

The emperor can understand his behavior: tit for tat!
　Thanks to the cute little Miyami Chongchong for the reward!
