The prostitute wait and see: the daughter is about to turn over

Chapter 659: Gratitude and Resentment (3)

It is true that Mrs. Meng is the only female family member in the Meng Mansion so far. This is an illusion created by him to deceive others. Behind his back, he still has three concubines and five children.These were all well hidden by him. If it hadn't been for several years to follow up and dig out clues, Xing Tianrui would not have known the truth.

Hearing that such a private matter of hers was exposed in public, Meng Zhiyu couldn't hold back her old face anymore, and said with a low face, "Even if it is concealed? This is an old man's family business, so don't bother others!"

As if he had expected that he would look like a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water, Xing Tianrui was not in a hurry, took out a booklet from his cuff, and waved it in the air, "Okay, then let's talk about it, What about your register and list? It clearly records the bribes you have accepted over the years, including houses and fields, gold, silver and jewelry, rare antiques, and many silver bills. The most curious thing is that each name is marked with a pen of a different color. I said, Mr. Prime Minister, can you tell everyone what they mean? Is it for you? In your eyes, those small officials are divided into grades, and whoever gives you a generous gift can be used more in the future?"

Ignoring Meng Zhiyu's bluish-white complexion, Xing Tianrui turned around and cupped his hands towards Nangong Haoyu and said, "Your Majesty, if you can visit the folks in disguise, you will find that what these ministers reported in the memorial is not true. The truth! Every time the government allocates disaster relief food, it is all distributed after being exploited layer by layer. The biggest vampire is the old man Meng Zhiyu! Not only that, he often buys rice merchants and salt in large quantities when disasters happen. Merchant’s goods are resold at a high price, making the country rich! Is such a person worthy of being a prime minister? It’s simply not as good as a beast!”

Although they had some reservations about a rich and powerful person like Meng Zhiyu, the ministers were still in an uproar when they heard that heinous act.

Even Nangong Haoyu was so angry that he tightly grasped the armrest of the dragon chair with both hands, and his long fingers were deeply embedded in the paw prints.

Lan Ruoxi had reminded him before that, no matter how honest an official looks, most of them will have problems of one kind or another, and there are really too few people who can remain unmoved in the face of huge temptations.Throughout the ages, how many officials have really been able to do things with ease?What's more, in Meng Zhiyu's position, there are too many people who want to please him.

If he can resist the temptation of the outside world, it is of course commendable, but I am afraid that his appearance is clean and honest, but in fact he is a bottomless pit, constantly absorbing benefits, and he may become rich as an enemy.

Looking at it now, what he said that day was not groundless worry, let alone Lan Ruoxi's wild imagination.

"Brother Pu, what are you doing?!" A delicate scolding sounded outside the Golden Luan Hall, and the trembling figure of Meng Qianqian came into view.

In the past few days, she has been unwell and has been resting in bed. Knowing that today is the day when her father has to do something big, she is even more restless.So Xiaoju was sent to bribe another palace man to ask about the situation in the Jinluan Hall. If she didn't understand the matter for a day, she couldn't let go of her heart completely.
