Reborn Lady's Scheming

Chapter 376
Xuanyuan Ming handed over all the flood incidents to the people below, while he himself was lying in the gentle land, and he couldn't think of leaving.

A month later, the flood control project was completely over.Xuanyuan Ming and his group returned to Shengjing reluctantly.Even so, it took nearly ten days to get back.

Putting these aside for now, since Xie Wanqing came out of the prison, her health has gotten better and better.When she was free, she went to the Tang Palace to chat with Princess Xian'an, and she lived a comfortable life.

On this day, it was rare for Xuanyuan Jue to return home early.Xie Wanqing was also a little surprised: "Why did you come back so early today?"

Xuanyuan Jue sat down, drank a cup of tea, and said with a complicated expression: "Wan'er, something big happened today."

"What is it?" Xie Wanqing was also a little curious, what kind of thing could make Xuanyuan Jue pay attention to this level.

Xuanyuan Jue took Xie Wanqing's hand: "Go in and talk."

"it is good."

Xie Wanqing was also very curious, and her heart beat faster.After entering the room, Xuanyuan Jue said, "Xuanyuanming went to the south to control the water, and the emperor allocated a large sum of money to him. However, less than one-tenth of it was used for water control."

Two sentences are concise and to the point.

Xie Wanqing's heart ached for a while, she didn't expect Xuanyuan Ming to be so greedy, even wanting to take such money.The so-called gentleman loves money, and he gets it in a proper way.What Xuanyuan Ming did was simply greedy and shameless.

"In this way, if the torrential rain continues, the project will be exposed sooner or later." Xie Wanqing expressed her doubts.Xuanyuan Ming has embezzled all the money, and the people below will probably be more embezzled. In this way, this flood control project is a joke.As long as the heavy rain continues, no, even if it doesn't rain, people will die at the latest!

Xuanyuan Jue nodded: "Madam is smart, she knows everything in a few words."

Xie Wanqing was not in the mood to tease at the moment: "You haven't made up your mind, have you?"

"You still understand me."

Xuanyuan Jue was confused.What he was struggling with was when to expose Xuanyuan Ming's scandalous deeds.If it is revealed now that Xuanyuan Ming did not make a big mistake, the effect may not be good.

If the common people were killed or injured after the heavy rain, then Xuanyuan Ming would certainly be criticized by thousands of people, but he would also become Xuanyuan Ming's accomplice.In this case, it will be at the cost of the lives of countless people.

Xie Wanqing shook her head, bit her lip and looked at Xuanyuan Jue.

Xuanyuan Jue understood Xie Wanqing's meaning in an instant: "I see."

"The current emperor is not a fool. As long as this matter gets out, there will be no good fruit for Xuanyuan Ming. If you wait until a big mistake is made, it will be useless, because Xuanyuan Ming has a large group of people who will take the blame."

Under Xuanyuan Jue's approving gaze, Xie Wanqing continued: "Besides, this is countless lives. If you don't expose it early, even your husband will suffer. At that time, those who died in vain will also hate you."

"Wan'er, I discussed with the people below today. They don't agree very much, but you speak from my heart." Xuanyuan Jue began to say.

Xie Wanqing smiled and said: "We are husband and wife, so we naturally stand together. And your subordinates, although they think about you, they don't think about you, and you really can't blame them."

"En." Xuanyuan Jue hugged Xie Wanqing tenderly, and the two sat down together.

Now that the matter has been decided, Xie Wanqing asked casually, "How do you plan to deploy?"

"I think Xuanyuan Ming asked for it himself. The reason why he coveted so much money was because of the girls in Hualou. In just two months in the south, he spent tens of thousands of taels of silver, which is really staggering." Xuanyuan Jue He didn't hide from his wife, and told all the news he knew.

Xie Wanqing also gasped, and really admired Xuanyuan Ming's boldness: "Then it will be easy. Just find some evidence, and then you can stab the emperor."

"En. Let's not talk about these disappointing things." As he spoke, Xuanyuan Jue slowly approached Xie Wanqing.

Not long after Xuanyuanming returned to Beijing, he was targeted.But at this moment, he himself didn't know, and he complained to Xiaodouzi all day long, saying that the women in Shengjing were not as beautiful as the women in the south, and he completely forgot about being inhumanely scared by Xuanyuan Zhen before.

Xiaodouzi was flattering and comforting, just like the ministers, it was all a set of rhetoric.That is to persuade Xuanyuan Ming to put his mind on the throne. At that time, he will not be able to get any woman he wants.

Xuanyuan Ming thought so deeply, so he returned to the Prince's Mansion and went to the Prince's Concubine's courtyard all day, hoping for the help of the Duke of Anguo's Mansion.And Qin Yu's attitude has always been indifferent, neither offending Xuanyuan Ming, nor overly flattering him, and always has a degree.

After a few days of living in peace, Xuanyuan Zhen finally got the news.

In the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the palace people were silent, and everyone dared not speak out.The reason for this is not because Xuanyuan Zhen lost his temper.

As Xuanyuan Zhen got older, he didn't get angry much.But this time, everyone saw it differently.The anger this time was even worse than when Qiong Gui died last time.

The entire Hall of Supreme Harmony, as long as it could be smashed, was smashed.This is the emperor's territory, and all the objects are extremely luxurious, but they were all smashed on May Day.

The old eunuch who had followed Xuanyuan Zhen for many years, keenly saw that something was wrong with him.After getting angry, Xuanyuan Zhen sat in front of the case for a long time, and didn't intend to go to bed until late at night.

"Your Majesty, it's getting late at night, and this old slave dares to beg the Emperor to go to bed earlier, with the dragon's body as the most important thing." In the Great Supreme Harmony Hall, only this old eunuch dared to talk to Xuanyuan Zhen like this.

Xuanyuan shook his head: "I don't want to sleep."

The old eunuch didn't say anything, just stood aside, as long as Xuanyuan Zhen didn't sleep, he would definitely not sleep either.

Xuanyuan Zhen suddenly looked at the old eunuch with a hoarse voice: "Degui, I have to admit that I am old. But when it came time to entrust, I found that there was no one who could take on the job. Don't you think it's sad?"

"Your majesty, old slave..." Degui was startled, his voice was choked up and he couldn't speak.

Xuanyuan Zhen looked at Degui's face, as time passed, he had become old and even covered with wrinkles.

"Forget it, follow me back to the palace for bed." Xuanyuan Zhen sighed.

Degui nodded and followed Xuanyuanzhen.

On the second day, after the morning court, Xuanyuan Zhen summoned Xuanyuan Ming.This was the first time Xuanyuan Zhen saw him alone since Xuanyuan Ming committed the crime.

For himself, the emperor's father, Xuanyuan Ming was afraid in his bones.He beat the drums in his heart, not knowing why Xuanyuan Ming called him here.He had no choice but to bite the bullet and greet him, but Xuanyuan Zhen kept looking at him and didn't ask him to get up.

"Get up." Xuanyuan Zhen came to his senses and signaled everyone around him to back down.

Suddenly, there were only two people left in the hall.Neither of them spoke, they were both waiting for the other to speak.The entire hall was so quiet that even the sound of burning spices could be heard.

"Do you know why I called you here today?" After a while, Xuanyuan Zhen asked.

"My son doesn't know." Xuanyuan Ming felt uneasy, and said in his heart, he has done so many bad things, who knows which one he is talking about!
Xuanyuan Zhen threw all the folders before the case in front of Xuanyuan Ming.

Xuanyuanming started to pick one up and looked at it, but he didn't think it was anything, it was just a note to impeach him.But the more I looked behind, the more frightened I felt.Because of these excerpts, what he did in the south is clearly described.

"Finished?" Xuanyuan Zhen looked at him disappointedly.

Xuanyuan Ming plopped down on his knees, wiping away his tears and shouting for injustice.

Xuanyuan was furious: "I'll give you another chance, tell the truth."

truth?Xuanyuanming was afraid that if he told the truth, his emperor father would not give him good fruit to eat.Since he denied it just now, he simply went all the way to the dark, gritted his teeth and said, "This is slander, please learn from me, Father."

"Xuanyuan Ming, do you really think I'm an idiot?" As an emperor, how could he not have someone who manages intelligence by his side.Xuanyuan Ming's trip to the south this time was also a test given to him by Xuanyuan Zhen.So from the very beginning, he placed his own people in the southern team.

I don't know if I don't check it, and I'm shocked when I check it.What Xuanyuan Ming did absurdly made Xuanyuan Zhen completely lose his patience.But every time he thought about the former empress and the uncle of the state, he couldn't bear to deal with it, so today he called him to speak in front of him alone.

Seeing the other party's expression, Xuanyuanming knew that it was over for him this time, someone must have sent Xuanyuan to Gaomi.

Xuanyuan Zhen said in a deep voice: "If you do this, will you be worthy of the former queen, and the uncle of the country?"

Xuanyuan Ming finally understood that no matter how much he tried to argue, it was useless.No one expected that Xuanyuan Zhen had already arranged eyeliner around Xuanyuan Ming.

"Father, I know I'm wrong, I know I'm wrong! I beg Father, please forgive my son!" Xuanyuan Ming snotted his nose and burst into tears, and tightly grasped the corner of Xuanyuan Zhen's clothes.

Xuanyuan Zhen looked at him coldly: "Don't you think it's already too late?"

Xuanyuan Ming's heart felt cold, and he cried even harder.When he saw Xuanyuan Zhen's eyes, he was frightened, even the most stupid person could understand the meaning of the words.

Xuanyuan Zhen hated Xuanyuan Ming's appearance very much, so he summoned the eunuchs beside him: "The prince is out of control, you take him down."

"His Royal Highness, please go out." The eunuch responded and asked Xuanyuan Ming to go out with him.

But Xuanyuan Ming was unwilling to go out.After such a fuss, Xuanyuan Zhen's face became even more gloomy: "Come here, send him to the Prince's Mansion and ground him."

"Yes!" Several Kong Wu's powerful eunuchs stepped forward and carried Xuanyuan Ming out.No matter how Xuanyuan Ming howled, he didn't pay attention.

This time, Xuanyuan Zhen just issued a verbal order to ground Xuanyuan Ming directly, even without a deadline, which shows how angry he is.

The next day, Xuanyuan Zhen decreed to execute all the officials who went south with Xuanyuanming, the reason being that water control was not good.

Xuanyuan Zhen sent another reliable official to the south again to control the water.This time, no one dared to touch the idea of ​​the project money.With the lessons learned from the prince, who would dare to cause trouble.
