During the famine, my ancient well connected to modern times

"Why didn't anyone tell me?"

"It was the Queen who didn't let me talk. The Queen said that there are also things in the countryside where relatives exchange seeds. The promotion of new wheat seeds is slow. Your Majesty refuses to give special treatment to the clan members. It's normal for them to be angry. The Queen said she has more information. Good seeds.”

The seeds provided by Jiang Miao were New Wheat Seed No. 2, which was planted almost at the same time as New Wheat Seed. However, New Wheat Seed No. 2 was not stable and took two years to be harvested.

Luo Tingye vaguely remembered this incident. At that time, Amiao just mentioned it and had already started sowing seeds in the capital. He didn't think much about it at the time.

No wonder the royal family members secretly despised Amiao. It turned out that they thought Amiao was easy to bully.

Luo Tingye's face was slightly gloomy, "Who are the families making trouble?"

"They are all elderly princes. The queen said that it is not worth arguing with them for some wheat, so she just respects the old and loves the young."

"Respect the old and love the young, they deserve it too. If A Miao doesn't understand, why don't you understand?"

Eunuch Fulin apologized and said, "Your Majesty had just ascended the throne and your Majesty had just married your Majesty. If a quarrel broke out, it would be bad for your Majesty and your Majesty's reputation. I think your Majesty's thoughts are correct."

Eunuch Fulin raised his eyelids and glanced at Feng Jizhong, "Besides, Prince Li also knows about this."

"Did Prince Li say anything?"

"Prince Li said that it is normal for relatives to come and go. He also left some wheat seeds. It is said that this year's harvest is not bad."

"When did Prince Li become so disrespectful of face?" Luo Tingye was visibly angry. He had always known that there were problems within the clan, and thought that with Prince Li in charge, nothing would happen.

In the end, that's how Prince Lili managed things.

Eunuch Fulin lowered his head and said nothing.

After a while, Luo Tingye stared at Eunuch Fulin, "Eunuch, do you want to remind me of Prince Li?"

Seeing that his idea was exposed, Eunuch Fulin said: "The old slave has been with the late emperor for more than twenty years and knows a lot about the people in the clan. In the past few years, the people in the clan were pretty good, even if someone caused trouble. But nothing too extreme.”

"But I don't know when it started. People from the royal family did more and more excessive things, and even interfered in the government affairs. His Majesty reprimanded him several times for this, but he was blocked by Prince Li."

"My servant is in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and found that a large number of things are missing from the inner treasury every year. After further investigation, I found that all the things have gone into the pockets of the clan, and Prince Li has the most."

Luo Tingye was silent for a long time, and suddenly said to Eunuch Fulin: "The queen is focused on the nursery. Send someone to keep an eye on the wheat matter. Harvest all the wheat in the hands of the people, except for the wheat seeds that will be planted next year." Come up."

"Yes."

Eunuch Fulin waited for Luo Tingye's next words.

"Those who bully the queen will be exempted from all etiquette in the future."

"Yes."

Although it was not the time for the festival, word spread that the emperor did not want to see several people.

The baseless accusations left several people confused. They didn't know where they had offended His Majesty. They never thought it was because of the original wheat seeds.

Royal affairs are world affairs.

Some imperial censors who couldn't stand it planned to take the opportunity to participate in the performance of His Majesty's book.

But then word spread about several families who secretly occupied grain fields and bullied men and women.

Ever since, the censor no longer stared at Luo Tingye.

With the censor's investigation and the revelations from interested people, the faces of several families were gradually revealed.

The most serious one was instructing domestic slaves to enclose land. Officials from poor families hated the act of enclosing land. They seized on this and severely beat them.

Officials from aristocratic families gradually got involved, and even Prince Li felt a strong pressure. Prince Li asked to see Luo Tingye but was turned away twice.

The ministers noticed the emperor's attitude and became more and more intense.

Children from poor families and wealthy families stand together and attack the royal family together, which is unstoppable.

"Your Majesty, I want to impeach Prince Yu and others for indulging in domestic slaves, bullying men and dominating women, and enclosing land at will. This is a violation of the laws of the imperial court."

"I also participated in the performance of Prince Yu and others."

"I also have something to say."

Luo Tingye had an angry look on his face, and seemed to be holding back his breath, "Do you have any evidence?"

"To reply to Your Majesty, I have evidence. I have a joint indictment from the common people. There are hundreds of people who have signed and pledged their names."

Luo Tingye looked shocked, looked at Prince Yu and the others in disbelief, and shouted to Feng Jizhong: "Bring it here."

"Yes."

Lieutenant General Feng Ji presented the joint handwritten letter to Luo Tingye. After Luo Tingye read it, his expression suddenly darkened, and his gaze shot towards Prince Yu and others like sharp knives several times.

"Your Majesty, this is where Prince Huai hides his filth. The bodies of more than a dozen young girls were found in a dry well in the manor under his name. A preliminary autopsy showed that they were all children under the age of fifteen."

Luo Tingye's anger surged out uncontrollably. He no longer looked at the royal family, "Bring out all the evidence you have."

The ministers were very obedient and took out evidence one by one. Even the ministers who had always supported the emperor stood up to express their dissatisfaction with several people and urged His Majesty to severely punish these people and uphold the law of the country.

Prince Yu, Prince Huai and others were sweating constantly and no longer had the high spirits of the past. They looked at Prince Li from time to time.

Prince Li was not very confident, but so much evidence could not be obtained by just one or two people. It must be the work of a noble family.

Your Majesty has always disliked aristocratic families. As long as this matter involves aristocratic families, there is a good chance that His Majesty will not be too embarrassed.

Thinking of this, Prince Li gave several people a calm look.

Luo Tingye looked at the evidence one by one. Even though he had been mentally prepared for it, he couldn't hide the look in his eyes that wanted to stab someone.

This is the person of the royal family, this is the person that the father wants him to take care of.

Feng Jizhong looked at Luo Tingye worriedly, "Your Majesty is happy and angry."

"Your Majesty, the crimes committed by Prince Yu, Prince Huai and others are too unspeakable to be written down. I ask your Majesty to punish them severely."

"Your Majesty, please punish me severely."

Most of the officials stood up. This was the first time they had seen such unity.

Prince Li's face trembled fiercely, and there was a faint feeling of uneasiness in his heart.

"Your Majesty, please punish these people severely." Seeing Luo Tingye's silence, Hu Jijiu thought he was hesitating and stood up at the right time.

With the support of the emperor's teacher, the remaining officials also stepped forward one after another.

Luo Tingye let out a sigh of relief and let out a long sigh, "Prince Li, you are the Zongling, what do you think about this matter?"

Prince Li thought for a while, and suddenly had an idea in his mind, and said calmly: "I listen to your Majesty."

Prince Yu and others looked horrified. Prince Li would usually help them if they had anything to do, but why was it different this time?
