The concubine is so charming

Chapter 829

The five officials knelt on the ground. After seeing the ceremony, they waited for a while but did not hear the emperor's call. The other party seemed to have not heard it, and they were still reviewing the papers in their hands with downcast eyes.

After waiting for a while, the five officials glanced at each other, then bowed again and said, "Your Majesty, I will see you."

Mu Qingchen casually threw the brush on the table, and some ink stains were thrown away, staining the unfolded memorial: "Why did the five lovers come here together? Could it be that something important happened in the court?"

Hearing that the emperor was finally willing to speak out, the five of them secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then became more nervous: "Your majesty, I have found out some things, and I feel that I must report to the emperor."

"Why don't you tell me something in the court, but ask for an audience today?"

"Reporting to the emperor, this matter is of great importance. If it is openly put in the court, it may cause a great commotion."

"Oh? What is so powerful?"

The five people looked at each other again, and finally the Minister of the Ministry of Finance with the highest official position responded: "Your Majesty, there are people from all over the country causing chaos by throwing money. After counting, the more calculations, the more frightened. This time, in order to shake the Daan Dynasty, the amount of silver taels used has reached a huge amount of 20 taels."

"The Ministry of Accounting has done a good job. The amount of money has been counted in such a short period of time."

"Your Majesty, if this is the case alone, the ministers will not pay so much attention to it. During this period of time, the Shen family helped investigate and found out that this batch of money came from the territory of the Huhe Tribe."

"I have also received this news. There have been quite a lot of changes in the Huhe tribe. Huhe Tulie and Huheduo have ulterior motives. They want to take this opportunity to disrupt the Da'an Dynasty and prevent me from helping my sister and brother-in-law. Unpredictable."

"Your Majesty, the matter is far from that simple." Someone could not help interjecting.

Mu Qingchen narrowed her eyes slightly, and leaned to the side, showing a calm expression: "Could it be that there is something inside that I don't understand?"

"Your Majesty, this batch of silver is not only from the Huhe Tribe, but also...is from the King and the Eldest Princess!"

As soon as these words came out, several people suddenly felt that the atmosphere in the hall became stagnant.

Behind the screen, Meng Rou frowned tightly, pulling the handkerchief in her hand, with a look of worry in her eyes.

After a while, Mu Qingchen said, "How did you find out about news that I don't even know about?"

"Your Majesty, the Yanyun Mountain of the Huhe Tribe has undergone several accidents. The merchants of the Da'an Dynasty were doing business in the capital, and they have inquired a lot of news. Among them, the Princess Chang and the King Side Shoulder sent people to dig silver mines from the Yanyun Mountain. However, the silver mine was dug out, the market area was also destroyed, and the batch of silver disappeared.”

"How do you know that the silver is missing? Even if the silver is missing, it doesn't necessarily mean that it was sent into the territory of the Da'an Dynasty."

"The craftsmen of the Shen family were used to refine and forge that batch of silver. A few days ago, some craftsmen of the Shen family were hunted down and rescued. Several people reported to the Ministry of Criminal Justice that they knew the source of the silver, so Ask the government for asylum."

"It's just a few craftsmen, what they said is true?"

"The Ministry of Criminal Justice sent people to investigate. These craftsmen are indeed affiliated to the Shen family. The place, manpower, and quantity he provided for refining the silver are also correct. The most important thing is that they said that the batch of silver did not belong to the Shen family. It was made into silver ingots, but processed into broken silver. They thought it was strange, and secretly left dark lines on the broken silver, and took out some for comparison. The Ministry of Criminal Justice asked many craftsmen to check, and finally concluded that In conclusion, the broken silver that entered the Da'an Dynasty was indeed made by those craftsmen."

Mu Qingchen smiled lightly: "The people in the Ministry of Criminal Justice have grown up. Before they were asked to investigate a corruption case, it would take them several months to investigate, but now it's less than a month, and they have to deal with such a complicated and huge case. Make it clear."

"Your Majesty, Weichen and others know that you have a very good relationship with the Eldest Princess, but you treat the Eldest Princess like a real sister, but do you know what the Eldest Princess is thinking?"

"I don't know, but you all know?" Mu Qingchen's voice was low and cold, with a hint of a storm about to come.

"Your majesty, you give the eldest princess and the side-by-side king the greatest trust, but not everyone can be worthy of this trust. More importantly, the eldest princess's background..."

"What do you mean, the eldest princess is from a tribe called He and is not my race, so her heart must be different?"

The officials kneeling on the ground tightened their scalps, and lowered their heads, not daring to look at the emperor's face: "Your Majesty, I don't mean that, it's just that all the signs pointing to the eldest princess and the side-by-side king make people suspicious." .”

"Don't forget, my sister and brother-in-law pushed me to the throne at the beginning. If they want to worry about it, it's not my turn, so there's no need to waste a lot of trouble."

"Your Majesty, people's hearts are fickle. What you don't want at the beginning does not mean you will never want it. At the beginning, Mu Cixiu, who occupied the throne because of the fight for the eldest princess, did many wrong things. The King of Side Shoulders wants to ascend to the position, but the people will not agree at all. After all, the eldest princess has a very bad reputation among the people. Even if there is Ghost Doctor Valley to help treat disaster victims in various places and save some, if she becomes the queen, she will definitely be the queen. It will lead to a backlash from the people. Therefore, the concession at that time was not necessarily out of the original intention."

Mu Qingchen lowered her eyes, looked at the four treasures of the study on the table, wished to pick up the paperweight and smash it directly in the face of the person who spoke, and finally rubbed her fingers, holding back: "Besides, you Do you have any other ideas?"

Seeing that Mu Qingchen didn't get angry, the officials looked much more relaxed than before: "Your Majesty, the Eldest Princess has Ghost Doctor Valley behind her, and now she has the support of the Huhe Tribe, plus the Emperor's previous preference, the power in her hands is really too much." It’s too big. I suggest reducing the power of the eldest princess, if possible, it’s best to include Ghost Doctor Valley and the Huhe Tribe..."

Before she finished speaking, Mu Qingchen couldn't bear it anymore, picked up the inkstone in her hand and threw it on the official's head: "Are you trying to reduce the power of the eldest princess? You clearly think that the Da'an Dynasty is too peaceful, So you want to stir things up?"

Such a courtier should be smashed to death!

"I don't dare," the official who spoke was splashed with blood, mixed with black ink, which made him look extraordinarily embarrassed and funny, "Your Majesty, I am loyal to you, please learn from me. The reason for this proposal , is to solve the problem fundamentally, not to provoke disputes on purpose."

"According to what you said, wouldn't it be more fundamental to directly kill the eldest princess and the side-by-side king?"

"Your Majesty, rest your anger."

Mu Qingchen stood up, and glanced over everyone with condensed eyes: "Go out and kneel for two hours, clear your head, and stop talking nonsense about these things in the future."

"emperor……"

"Get out!"
