Daughter of the prosperous age: Don't pretend to be stupid

Chapter 304 Grain Destroyed (5)

"Your Majesty, the Minister of the Household Department and several other adults have been on leave for several days." An old minister replied aloud.

To prepare grain and grass, the treasury's silver must be used, and Zhao Shilang is the official person in charge of this matter.It's just that Zhao Shilang hasn't come back since he went to Haoting Club that day.

The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly: "So many people asking for leave together?"

"Um, father, it's like this." Feng Tianyang hurriedly stepped forward, "These adults ate together, and they spoiled their stomachs, so..."

When Wang An and Prime Minister Liu heard the words, they both raised their eyelids and glanced at Feng Tianyang, then looked at each other inadvertently, and then curled their lips.

The Haoting club has always been Ye Haoyun's face to the outside world, but they don't think that Ye Haoyun alone can hold up such a big scene.Now, they finally know who is behind the Haoting clubhouse.

They sent someone to inquire yesterday, but those officials haven't returned yet.Now it seems that those people should be dead.It's just that Feng Tianyang suppressed the matter in order to cover up his ineffective supervision of the country.

However, they also wanted to know if Feng Tianyang could still suppress the matter when the emperor came forward to ask.

"What's going on?" The emperor's face turned cold several degrees in an instant, and the corners of Prime Minister Liu and An Wang's lips became more and more obvious.

"Father, this matter is a long story..." Feng Tianyang looked anxious and turned pale, "Can Rong Erchen report it later?"

The emperor looked at Feng Tianyang with an unclear expression, and only after a while did he say a word: "Quite!"

"Your Majesty, Zhao Shilang just eats a bad stomach, so it shouldn't affect the preparation of food and grass. Why don't you send someone to call him. After all, food and grass are more important than eating a bad stomach." Hubu Shangshu said.

"Eunuch Chen, invite Minister Zhao to discuss state affairs immediately." The emperor's face was so heavy that water could drip from it.

"Yes." Eunuch Chen walked out in response.

"Your Majesty, let the Fifth Prince take you to rest first, after all, it will take a while for Zhao Shilang to come." Prince Rong calmly came out to suggest.

Hearing the words, Feng Tianyang stepped forward to the emperor, the emperor glanced at him, snorted coldly and walked towards the back hall.

Not long after, the people sent by Chen Gonggong came back, saying that Zhao Shilang had gone to the Haoting Club and hadn't returned home for several days.Not only that, even several other officials are the same.

Hearing this, the emperor's expression was beyond description, and he immediately sent five hundred imperial guards to the Haoting clubhouse to find out what happened.

The courtiers standing below couldn't help but pay attention to Feng Tianyang frequently. After waiting for nearly half an hour, the imperial guards came back.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the Haoting clubhouse is empty, and those few adults are nowhere to be seen."

"What's going on?" The emperor glanced at Feng Tianyang.

Feng Tianyang was silent for a moment, then knelt on the ground, "Go back to Father, I don't know."

"Bold! These days you are in charge of the country, and several officials are missing, and you don't know?" The emperor was furious when he slapped the table.

Feng Tianyang lowered his head and said nothing.

"Come here, take the fifth prince back immediately to think about the past, and you are not allowed to leave the house for half a step without my order!"

"Yes." The imperial guards arrived in front of Feng Tianyang, Feng Tianyang stood up very cooperatively, and followed the imperial guards away.

"Commander Bai, I leave this matter to you to investigate. You must find out the whereabouts of the adults!" The emperor looked at Bai Lingyue.

"The minister leads the order!"

Prime Minister Liu went out and clasped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, Zhao Shilang holds one of the keys to the treasury. He is not here...the ministers have no way to raise the money."
