Canglan Empress

Chapter 403 is ridiculous
Emperor Tiande didn't speak, just looked at her silently.

"The most important thing is that Mo Xiao did kill Prince Yin, and if the Xiuyun Building is really run by a certain royal family member, then why does this royal family member accumulate so much wealth?"

Xuanyin put forward her opinions in an orderly manner, and said with a faint smile: "I feel that opening a brothel to collect money is more serious than direct corruption and bribery, because the brothel is originally a place of three religions, and besides directly collecting money, it is also the best place to inquire about gossip. ideas."

"I dare to guess that there are many well-dressed officials in the court hall who have gone to the brothel for entertainment in private. After three glasses of wine, what should be said and what should not be said, I am afraid that they will spit out all of them."

Several important ministers and officials who could keep silent at first looked at Xuanyin angrily when they heard this: "It's a load of nonsense! Where did the major general hear these bullshit rumors? Which official would run to such a dirty place?"

"Major General, please be careful, the old man is a clean official, and he has never been to those places that are not on the stage."

"A major general cannot kill a boatload of people with one blow."

"That's right. I can only say that a few officials really don't know how to clean themselves, but most courtiers don't bother to go to that kind of place. Their wives and concubines can't handle it. Who has the energy to go to that kind of place?"

Everyone glanced at me, lest the emperor really think that they went to the brothel for nothing to do when they had nothing to do—even if they had really been there, they would never admit it.

Xuanyin glanced at the aggrieved crowd, and smiled indifferently: "My lords, don't get excited, this general just told the truth, without naming names, he said that all the lords have been there."

"The major general just told the truth?" Prime Minister Mu twirled his beard and said slowly, "So, the major general himself did not miss out, did he? Otherwise, how could he know so well?"

Xuanyin smiled, her brows and eyes were full of elegance, making people dazzled.

"The general has never been there, and I might go to see it when I have the opportunity." She said casually, and then changed the topic, "The brothel is a luxurious and noisy place. If someone wants to plot something, this kind of environment is fine." Be the perfect cover."

Having said that, she turned her head to look at the emperor: "That's why I said that opening a brothel to collect money is a more serious crime than directly corrupting ink, because no one knows what he is planning while collecting money."

"Huangfu Xuanyin, you're just talking nonsense!" Xu Wang looked up at her coldly, "According to what you said, aren't all the brothels in Yongjing plotting something? Do you want to seal them all up? Everyone will be sent to prison for questioning!"

"Those who open a brothel are not necessarily conspiring." Xuanyin looked at him calmly, not taking his anger into consideration at all, "But if a high-ranking official with a lot of power goes to open a brothel, then it is considered that there is no conspiracy." What, I'm afraid it is not allowed by the law."

As soon as this remark came out, King Xu choked immediately, his face turned pale and pale, which was particularly ugly.

"That's enough." Emperor Tiande said, and the imperial study room fell silent instantly, "Xuanyin is right, no matter whether he is plotting something or not, the first-rank officials of the court are going to open a brothel when they see the emperor's relatives..."

Laughing gloomyly, Emperor Tiande grabbed the teacup on the imperial case and threw it out, his voice was cold and angry: "It's so ridiculous!"
