Chef Mad Queen

Chapter 1285: Blue Chamber of Commerce
Seeing that Feng Qian was still a bit puzzled, Xuanyuan Che pointed out: "Unless these people are not merchants at all, and the thing they entrust is not as simple as the convenience of travel."

When Xuanyuanche said this, he was surprised in his heart, Xiaoliu has grown up so much now, Beiyan entrusted him, it really is the right person!

Feng Qian suddenly woke up: "Shenyin Sect!"

"Exactly." Feng Cang nodded slightly, "Those people who pretended to be merchants were the followers of the Shenyin Sect. They bribed our court officials in order to let them give advice on the establishment of the state religion."

Xuanyuanchen thought it was ridiculous, he looked at these courtiers, and said prestige: "It is said that money can make ghosts turn the millstone, but you are still living as human beings, so you can't wait to learn how ghosts can turn the millstone for others?"

"I don't dare!" Elder Zhou heard the king's words like a knife piercing his heart. Although he is a bit rigid and eccentric, when it comes to his loyalty to the Northern Yan Dynasty, he really has a clear conscience.

Now being reprimanded by the king like this, he naturally felt uncomfortable.

Old Zhou couldn't help saying: "I'm guilty, I'm terrified!" He kowtowed and broke his head, how could everyone hold him back!

All the ministers also knelt down and said: "I know my mistake! Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

For a moment, the left and right ministers, including the guards, also knelt down and shouted: "Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

As early as when Xuanyuanche was the king of Beiyan, many important officials in the court acted arrogantly and domineeringly because they were related to the prince. However, Xuanyuanche at that time could still restrain this group of officials, and even gave up his throne After Xuanyuanchen, the courtiers became more disorganized when they saw a king whose qualifications were not as good as their own.

Even though Xuanyuanchen made a big deal of rectification afterwards, it really acted as a deterrent to these courtiers, but it failed to solve the problem fundamentally.

Fengqian had never seen such a scene before, all the courtiers wished to apologise, and grabbed the ground with their heads, weeping, as if they had committed some unforgivable crime.

Alas, as expected, Beiyan's ethos was spoiled by that Concubine Lan back then.

If they made a mistake and were punished, they acted as if they were going to die. These courtiers were literati who had read sage books anyway, so why not learn from them, and learn from the tricks of market women who cry, make trouble, and hang themselves!

That Zhou Lao, although it was an unintentional mistake, but now that he has made such a start, how is Xiao Liu going to end?

Feng Qian stood up and said calmly: "Since that's the case, I will do what you want."

When the servants heard Feng Qian's sudden words, they froze for a moment.

"After all, King Beiyan was raised by you. If he directly orders you to be dealt with, it is inevitable that some people will comment on him as 'mean and ungrateful'. Why don't I just let this villain do a good job."

When everyone was in doubt, Feng Qian waved his big hand, motioning to serve Timo next to the text, and said: "Zhou Chengjin, a great Confucian in Northern Yan, was deceived by a cult, and made a mistake in his words. Yan."

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the hall, the courtiers who had been crying endlessly before were all dumbfounded now, no one expected that Queen Dayan would really dare to do such an act of severing the wrists of a strong man.

Elder Zhou was quite calm, he was already blaming himself for his mistakes, so weeping bitterly, he was crying that he was an ignorant person after reading so many books, unlike those courtiers who acted like this, Just to draw the king's sympathy.

"Thank you, minister!" Zhou Chengjin got a bit of peace of mind after being demoted.

Xuanyuan Chen saw blood oozing from his forehead, and said: "Mr. Zhou, let's go down and heal the injury. What happened today should be taken as a warning, so that I can live up to my painstaking efforts."

"The minister obeys the order!"

When everyone saw Mr. Zhou leave, they were stunned for a while, Feng Qian had already seen the expressions of these courtiers one by one, if Bei Yan let this group of courtiers who are only obsessed with personal interests assist, it would be a disaster!

It's just that if the order is issued immediately to change the Northern Yan Dynasty, firstly, Fengqian has not been able to find a good successor, and secondly, although all the princes have lived in peace these years, no one is secretly gearing up and waiting for you The imperial court collapsed from within, and when war broke out again, it would be a piece of cake to swallow Beiyan.

Moreover, there is still a thorny problem before him, Beiyan's soldier talisman is still in the hands of King Changli.Before you get the soldier talisman, you must not act rashly.

Feng Qian thought over and over again, it must be changed, but not on the bright side.

Xuanyuan Chen seemed to have thought of something with Feng Qian, and he said: "I can't bear to criticize Gu Nian and everyone's achievements in assisting Beiyan, but you are confused by the Shenyin Sect and made so many mistakes. For your decision, I have no choice but to punish you slightly."

Feng Cang suddenly said: "My lord, can I listen to my minister first?"

"Let's talk about Feng Xiang."

"Shenyin Sect invaded my Northern Yan Dynasty Hall. If Zhang Tingfu and the other three did not open the door, these believers would not have dared to run rampant here. If they want to be punished, the old minister advises that Chen, Zhang, and Duan should be severely punished as a warning. Follow you."

"What Prime Minister Feng said is very true, but I have another question. The Shenyin Sect bribes the officials of our dynasty. Naturally, it needs a lot of gold and silver. Who secretly supports the money?"

Speaking of this, Xuanyuan Chen glanced at the people in the hall, but did not find the target figure, and only asked the supervisor beside him: "Where is the daughter of the Lan family?"

"Your Majesty, Miss Lan has no official position, and she is not allowed to enter the court without an edict."

"Send her in."

"Yes."

Lan Yueru didn't know why she was invited to come in, she just wondered in her heart: "It's such a big banquet, it's a fight and killing, and it's three trials, I really lost my interest!"

Xuanyuanchen asked her: "Miss Lan, today I heard that the Lan Family Chamber of Commerce purchased a large amount of jewelry. I don't know what to use for it?"

"Business is the foundation of the Lan family. Besides, the Lan family's business has always been large. It's not unusual to buy a lot of jewelry once or twice. What's so strange about it?"

Feng Qian couldn't help but smile, is this Miss Lan fearless?Or are you talking without thinking?

More than once or twice, is this the rhythm of actively confessing?
"It's not unusual, I'm just curious, where were those jewels used?"

"This..." Although she is the daughter of the president of the Lan family, to put it bluntly, not every trivial transaction in the chamber of commerce is handled by her.

For example, when Xuanyuan Chen asked about these jewels, she really didn't know what they were being used for.

"Let me tell you!" Feng Qian looked up at the women in the hall, "The Lan Family Chamber of Commerce is the money bag of Shenyin Sect!"

"You're talking nonsense!" Lan Yueru blurted out subconsciously, why did the Lan Family Chamber of Commerce get involved with the Shenyin Sect?Even though the Shenyin Sect was popular at the beginning and had the potential to become the national religion of Beiyan, the Lan family never thought of getting involved with the Shenyin Sect.

"Presumptuous!" the father-in-law scolded, "Queen Fengqian is here, don't make any noise!"

She was so anxious for a while that she forgot the courtesy of a monarch and a minister.

yes!Every time she looks superior, I will never be able to compete with her!Lan Yueru bit her lips tightly, not daring to be rude anymore.
