Planting a fairy in ancient times

Chapter 189
That censor was just reprimanded by Emperor Tianjing yesterday, and now there is a "fireball from the sky" incident in Pingjiang Mansion.

It is conceivable that at tomorrow's court meeting, there may be some old incidents brought up again by the imperial censor, and Emperor Tianjing will issue an "edict of sin against oneself".

Of course Emperor Tianjing would not do it.

Emperor Tianjing felt that he had been in power for fifty years, had been diligent and conscientious, and cared for the people wholeheartedly, so he was innocent at all.

"Long Live Lord, this is true. Weichen happened to be resting at the station at that time, and heard the noise outside. When he came out to look, he saw a fireball the size of a washbasin flying from east to west. After a few breaths, it fell to the ground. Immediately afterwards, the Guancang was on fire." Cui Shi'an said.

Cui Shi'an knew a thing or two about Emperor Tianjing's thoughts.

However, the "fireball falling from the sky" is a fact, and Cui Shian can't just say it's a lie against his conscience!

"How much was the official warehouse of Pingjiang Mansion burned? Has the loss been counted? Half of it? Or all of it?" Hearing Cui Shi'an said that he saw this with his own eyes, Emperor Tianjing's face darkened even more.

The scale of the Pingjiang mansion's official warehouse is one of the best in Xuanyuan Chaoyang.

If everything is burned, even if there is no food in it, it will cost a lot of money to rebuild.

"Father, the official warehouse is fine, only one roof was burned." At this time, Xuanyuan Chaoyang couldn't help but said: "Father, you don't know, the fire was so fierce at that time! The Kudings in the warehouse had no choice but to call The people in Ping'an Town helped put out the fire, and guess what happened?"

When Xuanyuan Chaoyang mentioned the excitement, he couldn't help dancing.

"Guess what? Hurry up and say it!" Emperor Tianjing scolded.

Emperor Tianjing was almost pissed off by his stupid son.Knowing that he was worried, he gasped and asked himself to guess.

Guess your sister! Guess!
Only then did Xuanyuan Chaoyang come back to his senses.

Oh my goodness!It's all because he talked a lot with people during this time, and accidentally mistook his old-fashioned and serious emperor father as the audience who listened to his "storytelling".

"Father, just as the official storehouse was on fire, it began to rain and put out the fire." Xuanyuan Chaoyang replied cautiously.

"It's raining? Did the rain put out the fire?" Emperor Tian Jing didn't expect such a result, and was stunned for a while.

"That's right! Father, the people in Ping'an Town say that our Xuanyuan family is indeed a family blessed by gods! The official warehouse was on fire, and God helped put out the fire. It's amazing." Rong Yan.

Before Xuanyuan Chaoyang left Pingjiang Mansion, Pingjiang Mansion was full of various legends.Many people brought up the fact that Xuanyuan was once a descendant of gods.

The people in Ping'an Town who have been to the scene for disaster relief are even more amazing.

It is said that God blesses the Xuanyuan Dynasty, and the rain falls from the sky, which extinguishes the fire in the official warehouse.

Otherwise, if it's raining, why is the light above the burning official warehouse?Nothing else?
(Chen·Goddess·Xiaoyu: Don't ask, it's because I don't want to waste my spiritual power, so I narrowed down the scope of the rain.)
A smile appeared on Emperor Tianjing's face.

Very good!
When fireballs fall from the sky and burn the official warehouse, there will be rain from the sky to put out the fire.

In this way, they can be described as a blessing in disguise!

"Cui Aiqing, have you found out about Wu Zhiyuan's reselling of official food?" Emperor Tianjing continued to ask.

"My lord, the matter has come to light. Wu Zhiyuan colluded with Zhou and Wang, two big grain merchants..." Cui Shi'an explained Wu Zhiyuan's case to Emperor Tianjing in detail.

Hearing that Cui Shi'an said that Zhou and Wang's family property had been confiscated to make up for the lost grain, Emperor Tianjing couldn't help applauding.

"Cui Aiqing handled it properly, as it should."

"Your Majesty, Wu Zhiyuan is being imprisoned in the prison of Pingjiang Mansion. How to deal with it is up to the Holy Majesty to decide." Cui Shi'an lowered his head and said.

"What's Cui Aiqing's suggestion on this matter?" Emperor Tian Jing kicked the ball into Cui Shi'an's hands.

The loss that Wu Zhiyuan brought to the Xuanyuan Dynasty this time is definitely several 10 taels of silver.

According to the law, Wu Zhiyuan would at least ransack his family and exterminate his family.

Emperor Tianjing didn't know about Cui Yingying and Wu Zhiyuan's reconciliation, the reason why he wanted to hear Cui Shian's opinion was also to give Cui Shian a chance to intercede for his sister.

"Your Majesty, I implore Your Majesty to be merciful and spare the lives of my sister and nephews!" Cui Shi'an stood up and knelt down.

Cui Shi'an knew that the reconciliation between Cui Yingying and Wu Zhiyuan could only confuse outsiders, but it was impossible to confuse on Emperor Tianjing's side.

Instead of letting Emperor Tianjing catch him afterwards, Cui Shi'an felt that it would be better for him to ask Emperor Tianjing for forgiveness of Cui Yingying's mother and son.

At most... Cui Shi'an would use his credit to exchange the lives of his sister and nephews.

"Cui Aiqing, your sister and nephew are both from the Wu family. Wu Zhiyuan's crime is unforgivable, and the Wu family's crime is also unforgivable." Emperor Tianjing frowned and said.

"Your Majesty, I have something to say. My sister has reconciled with Wu Zhiyuan more than a month ago. Wu Zhiyuan broke his promise to my sister first, and then persecuted her. My sister didn't want to live with him, so she took the reconciliation letter. I took the children back to my natal home. Your Majesty, I beg you, please be merciful and spare my sister and nephews!" Cui Shian knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly.

Cui Shi'an was afraid that Emperor Tianjing would not spare Cui Yingying's mother and son, so he had to talk about the matter with Lishu.

Cui Shi'an had followed Emperor Tianjing for so many years, and he knew that Emperor Tianjing was very hard-hearted. His own son, Emperor Tianjing killed him as soon as he said he wanted to, and he didn't see him being soft-hearted.

Cui Shian was afraid that if he didn't work hard to fight for it, his sister and nephews might be killed.

"Cui Aiqing, your sister and Wu Zhiyuan have reconciled long ago?" Emperor Tian Jing expressed his disbelief.

"His Royal Highness, please help me with a word! My sister and Wu Zhiyuan's reconciliation book, you have seen it with your own eyes in Pingjiang Mansion!" Cui Shi'an turned his head and looked at Xuanyuan Chaoyang eagerly.

"I..." Xuanyuan Chaoyang did not expect that Cui Shi'an would drag him into the water.

"Chaoyang, tell me, what Cui Aiqing said is true?" Emperor Tianjing's face darkened.

"Father, I have indeed seen Wu Zhiyuan and Cui Sanniang's reconciliation letter. There is a record in the Pingjiang government office." Xuanyuan Chaoyang hesitated and said.

Regarding the matter of Li Shu, Xuanyuan Chaoyang had already gained a favor from Cui Shi'an.If he denies it at this time, Xuanyuan Chaoyang is afraid that he will be hated by Cui Shian.

So I followed Cui Shian's words and helped to speak.

"Since that's the case, Cui Yingying and her own children are not included in the execution. The whole family of the Wu family was executed, and the property and the money obtained from the sale of the servants were confiscated, and they were confiscated into the treasury." Emperor Tianjing thought for a while and made a decision.

Regardless of whether the reconciliation of Cui Yingying and Wu Zhiyuan is true or not, for the sake of the loyalty of the Cui family father and son over the years, Emperor Tianjing is willing to give Cui Shian some face.
