Chapter 94 Toothache and Heartache
Ji Li's action was too fast, and he didn't reveal it to anyone in advance, so King Zhenjiang died on the spot before he even got a taste of it.

The next day, there was an explosion in the court hall, and all the topics revolved around King Zhenjiang's assassination of Zuo Xiang Chuyun, and the act of King Zhenjiang's nephew Shi Xiaohua righteously killing his relatives.

"The king of Zhenjiang is a loyal family, how could he rebel, someone must have slandered him! Please investigate clearly." A minister said so.

"Loyalty? Have you ever seen a loyalist who declares the imperial decree but does not see it? Can you meet a loyalist who does not worship the Holy One? Have you ever seen a loyalist who slanders the Holy One?!" Another minister said so.

Xuan Yuheng looked coldly at the noisy and enthusiastic officials without saying a word.

He wondered why Mo Wen, who had been the first to impeach Shi Paohui all along, was so silent today.

I don't know what Mo Wen's calculations are, but he has been silently staring in a daze, even though the people on both sides are arguing in full swing, Mo Wen remains steadfast.

It wasn't until the people on both sides were exhausted from arguing and staring at each other out of breath that Mo Wen finally came back to his senses.

I saw him cup his hands, and performed a standard general ceremony, "Report to the emperor, don't ask me, if you have something to tell."

"General Mo, please tell me." Xuan Yuheng rubbed his head, he had a toothache, it hurt half of his head.

Mo Wen took out a long booklet from his sleeve, and read from it, "In the 32nd year of the emperor, Changping was hit by floods, and 70 taels of silver were brought in. Liang Gu does not remember the burden."

"In the 34th year of the emperor, he seized ten acres of land from Yan and built three private gun houses."

"In the 39th year of the emperor, more than 130 pairs of ordnance were made in the private artillery workshop, and the barbarians bought them, and received [-] million taels of silver."

"In the 48th year of the Emperor, more than 260 pairs of ordnance were manufactured in the private artillery workshop. The Eastern Zhou bought it and received [-] million taels of silver."

The more the numbers were read, the more startling Xuan Yu Heng pursed his lips. Every time he heard a number, his anger filled him.

At the end of the reading, Mo Wen slammed the booklet shut, and scanned the person who spoke for Shi Paohui with a livid face, "Loyal ministers... patriotism, this is what your so-called loyal ministers do! Just bullying the people , Building a cannon house privately is enough to be punished as a crime of treason, not to mention that he dared to make money for the country! Internal and external troubles, who will give the new emperor an explanation?! Who will give an explanation to the soldiers who are guarding the front line and may die at any time Explanation!"

After Xuan Yuheng listened carefully to Mo Wen's words, his furious mood calmed down a bit.

Mo Wen's information was of course given by Ji Li, and before giving it, he had already sent someone to remove all the completed or semi-finished products in the private artillery workshop, Xuan Yuheng naturally knew everything Ji Li had done, but He no longer cares about these matters with Ji Li.

Xuan Yuheng laughed lowly, "In this way, the evidence of Shi Paohui's intention to rebel is solid, then..." He paused, and suddenly knocked on the imperial case, which made all the officials tremble in shock, "Come here, tell me what happened just now!" All those who speak for the guilty minister Shi Paohui will be arrested and thrown into prison, waiting to be punished."

No one else dared to speak, but Mo Wen's voice resounded, "My emperor is wise, long live long live."

"Shi Xiaohua righteously exterminated his relatives and made great contributions in exposing him. He is specially granted the title of King of Zhenjiang to inherit the title. He will be rewarded with the original Zhenjiang Prince's Mansion, two pieces of gold and white, one hundred silks and fifty guards."

In this silent battle with the King of Zhenjiang, the biggest beneficiaries are Ji Li, weapons, silver, and countless others.

In the new hall, Lian Qingcheng listened carefully to Xuan Yuheng's complaints, refilling him with a few cups of tea from time to time, and occasionally interjecting a sentence or two.

Ting Yu didn't like Xuan Yuheng running to the new palace every day, and went to Jili's side early, where Gu Xiaosi was also there, making fun of her was better than watching Xuan Yuheng clinging to his young lady.

"So, you are the most wronged person this time?" Lian Qingcheng raised his eyes and smiled brightly, like a brilliant peach blossom blooming in March.

"It's so shameless." Xuanyu Heng didn't move the tea that Lian Qingcheng pushed over, but just poured the wine he brought into his mouth one cup after another. .”

Lian Qingcheng looked at Xuan Yuheng with a smile, his eyes curved into a crescent moon, "He didn't destroy those private cannon workshops, he just waited for you to rectify them, and then they can go into production again. In the long run... this is not a Bad thing."

Xuan Yuheng had had enough of it, he had endured the shamelessness of Ji Li, and he could not bear to move the ordnance, semi-finished products, and even pig iron from the private artillery workshop like a robber, but he could not bear it, but only this sentence of Lian Qingcheng He can't stand it.

rectify?Manpower, material resources, financial resources, which one should not be considered?Which is not tricky?
"So, I still have to thank him?" Xuan Yuheng gritted his teeth and chuckled.

Lian Qingcheng pursed his lips, and raised the shawl on his body, "If you want to thank him, how about giving him another [-]% of your [-]%?"

Xuan Yuheng almost wanted to look up to the sky and sigh, and laughed three times.

He had always thought that Ji Li was the most shameless, despicable, and worst person in the world, but now after hearing Lian Qingcheng's words, he suddenly realized that there are many people who are more shameless than Ji Li, such as Lian Qingcheng.

"Bandits, bandits." Xuan Yuheng was thinking about it, he began to regret bringing Lian Qingcheng to Beichen, he was asking for trouble, he was probably the one who asked for trouble, right?Eat his, use his, live in his, but end up for others.

Lian Qingcheng looked at Xuan Yuheng's helpless and annoyed expression and was full of smiles, "Do you think he is satisfied when he came to Beichen to solve a Zhenjiang king for you?"

"What else is he going to do? Could it be that he wants to overthrow my Beichen?" Xuan Yuheng was quite frightened, with a faint smile in his eyes.

"The King of Zhenjiang is just a bait," Lian Qingcheng held up his teacup and shook it, "a bait that can catch big fish."

Xuan Yuheng heard that Lian Qingcheng's words were satisfactory, and the smile in his eyes widened again, "The big fish he has his eyes on is not easy to catch, and it may make waves in Beichen's river, not to mention, Why did he help me? Just to see you?"

"See me?" Lian Qingcheng looked up at the sky, then stood up, "It's getting late, I guess he's coming, the emperor should go back to the palace."

"I know what you mean." Xuan Yuheng was extremely disappointed, the smile on his face could hardly hold back, "But I still want to fight, maybe I will leave you behind?"

"This kind of thing can't happen," Lian Qingcheng flatly refused, because when Xuan Yuheng was a friend, she didn't want Xuan Yuheng to have any illusions.

Xuan Yuheng originally wanted to come to the new palace to seek comfort, but who knew that Lian Qingcheng was so heartless, that he could only come here with hope, and returned full of disappointment.

But it's not all fruitless, at least let him know who Ji Li is targeting next.

The relationship between the emperor's teacher and Muchen is intricate, and there is an inseparable entanglement with the regent Xuanbaiqi, and his power is even more intertwined like an old tree. What's more, this person is not only the emperor's teacher, but also controls most of Beichen's business. In business dealings, playing with him is undoubtedly tantamount to seeking skin from a tiger. From now on, Xuan Yuheng not only suffers from toothache, but also pains in his avatar and heart.
