Chapter 143 Framed
Seeing Xia Hanyu, several adults saluted quickly.

"My minister sees His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess Chitose."

"Several adults are exempt."

Xia Hanyu passed them and walked towards the emperor, and took a closer look at his father, the emperor, but he didn't appear to be angry.

"What's the matter with the father calling his daughter?"

She felt that she didn't need to be present for today's matter.

Emperor: "Aren't you concerned about boiling sugar from sugar cane? Zuo Wen is here today, so you can just ask him."

Xia Hanyu nodded, "That's fine."

As they spoke, everyone's eyes fell on Zuo Wen who was behind him.

Zuo Wen was already kneeling on the ground at this time, saying hello, but he didn't stand up.

After Jin Yiwei paid his respects, he got up and still stood behind him, waiting for the emperor's order.

"Zuo Wen, do you have something to say about the reports from your colleagues in the Salt Transportation Department?"

Zuo Wen bent over and kowtowed, "I can't finish the report, I don't have the supervisor to steal it, but I don't have evidence."

Although he didn't know what evidence those people provided, he really had no evidence to prove that he was wronged, not to mention that the snow salt and the sugar made from the sugar cane given by His Highness were all found in his residence.

The emperor didn't say anything, and didn't question him, but instead asked Xia Hanyu.

"Yu'er, what do you think?"

Xia Hanyu: "Daughter heard that the Salt Transport Department's current Salt Transport Envoy is old and will retire soon. Is there such a thing?"

The emperor nodded, "It is true, and he sent the memorial of his resignation to my desk yesterday."

That means, just wait for the emperor to agree.

"Yu'er means that those people framed Zuo Wen for this position?"

The emperor said that he was framed, which meant that he did not believe the so-called evidence at all.

Xia Hanyu nodded, and took two steps in the direction of Zuo Wen.

"Zuo Wen, Ben Gong remembers that there should be another person besides you besides you."

Zuo Wen was stunned for a moment, and then realized, "Your Highness means that he is framing this humble minister?"

He seemed a little unbelievable, and a little unwilling to believe it.

"Weichen and Hu Zan were transferred to Shangjing together. He has a simple mind, so he shouldn't..."

Xia Hanyu didn't finish listening to him, and directly interrupted his defense.

"No matter how simple-minded a person is, they will change when they meet what they want."

"It seems that many people want to be an official at the beginning for the sake of the people, but one day when he becomes an official, what he does is to harm the people. This does not mean that he was not good enough, but that he has never guarded his heart. kind hearted."

"Zuo Wen, you guarded yourself, but he didn't."

Zuo Wen was a little depressed, and didn't know what to say for a while.

"Okay, now is not the time to be sad; I ask you, what happened to the sugar cane that was handed over to you earlier?"

"His Royal Highness, I have already extracted those two thousand sugar canes into the white sugar and brown sugar you mentioned."

"One cane can be boiled to produce [-] grams of white sugar, but only two grams of brown sugar can be boiled."

To be honest, when the brown sugar was being boiled, Zuo Wen was so distressed.

"So few." Xia Hanyu didn't think so.

The system is really stingy, and it only gave two thousand.

In other words, if all 120 sugar canes are used to boil white sugar, then only [-] grams of white sugar can be obtained, which is [-] catties.

What can a mere 120 catties do!
What if it is boiled into brown sugar?
