The reborn poisonous woman is hard to abandon

Chapter 303
The news that the cargo at Chen Daokou Wharf was robbed quickly spread to the South Korean government.

At that time, Huo Yong, the Duke of Korea, was entertaining guests in his mansion, when he heard the news, he felt a roar in his head.He couldn't keep the smile on his face any longer, he winked at Huo Yuan and left the banquet immediately, and Huo Yuan followed closely behind.

"Yuan'er, hurry up and help Wei father think of a way, what should I do now? You said that bastard Cheng Kuo wouldn't confess me?"

Huo Yong walked up and down the room and couldn't think of a way out. When he saw Huo Yuan coming in, he rushed up anxiously and explained the whole thing.

"Why is father still dealing in private salt? My son told you that this matter should be stopped as soon as possible, you..."

"It's the time now, so don't blame your father. It's not like you don't know the situation in the house now! I finally got such a fat job. Of course I have to seize the opportunity!"

Huo Yong interrupted Huo Yuan with embarrassment, and a look of sternness flashed in his eyes: "I just didn't dare to be too ostentatious, so I handed over this matter to Cheng Kuo. Who knows now...if I know what it is Who is playing tricks behind the scenes, I will definitely make his life worse than death..."

"Father can't protect himself now, even if you know who is doing the tricks, what can you do with him?"

Huo Yuan looked at the man in front of him coldly, and his tone became more serious: "Who is Cheng Kuo, doesn't father know? How can you entrust him with such a big matter as trafficking in smuggled salt! Now the cargo ship at Chen Daokou has been captured Check, Cheng Kuo will be confessed soon, and then not only will your father be found out by the emperor, but the queen will also be punished, and the Korean government will have no future!"

Huo Yuan's words resounded like thunder in Huo Yong's mind, only made him dizzy for a while, and it took him a long time to react.

"Then, what should we do! Duke Huai is using you so much now, you must find a way to save father!"

Huo Yong hurriedly grabbed Huo Yuan's arm, like a dying man grabbing a life-saving straw.

A month ago, the empress handed over the fat job of purchasing in the palace to him, and he refused to stop after making a fortune.But Huo Yuan warned him not to benefit from it, but he was really unwilling, so he had to hide the matter and handed over the matter to Cheng Kuo, who was responsible for transporting it out.

Cheng Kuo is Qian's nephew, and the Cheng family has a close relationship with the Qian family. The reason why Huo Yong reuses Cheng Kuo is because he thinks he can handle him well.However, what he didn't expect was that this matter was found out for some reason.

Now if Cheng Kuo can't resist confessing him, the fact that the queen arranged for him to be in charge of purchasing in the palace will also be exposed.

In this way, as Huo Yuan said, sooner or later the queen will be dragged into the water.

Facing Huo Xun's panic-stricken eyes, Huo Yuan's expression became more serious: "The most important thing now is to get rid of Cheng Kuo as soon as possible... I don't know if father has something to keep in Cheng Kuo's hands?"

"This……"

A flash of embarrassment flashed across Huo Yong's face. He was worried that Cheng Kuo would take advantage of it for himself, and planted a lot of his own eyeliner. Once those people...

"You! How can you be so confused!"

Seeing Huo Yong's strange behavior, Huo Yuan's heart skipped a beat, he endured it for a while, and finally couldn't help but reprimand him softly.

Selling private salt can indeed make a lot of money, but if it is discovered, it is a felony, ranging from loss of office to imprisonment.

As for such a big matter, it's fine if his father doesn't stop, but he still left a lot of excuses!This is simply asking for death!

"Yuan'er, don't rush to get angry, think about what we should do now? We can't just wait for the emperor to send someone to arrest us!"

"Father knows he's panicking now, so what did he do back then? If it's okay for others to say, Mr. Cao has never been a good talker, and most of Jing Zhaoyin's people are princes. If they find out what's behind this incident They can still bring out the Empress Dowager, do you think they will easily let go of this opportunity?
Huo Yuan was so angry that his face turned blue, but there was nothing he could do. He had the thought of letting go of it a few times, but he couldn't do it because the other party was his father.

When Huo Yuan saw this, Huo Yong felt a burst of despair, and after a few breaths, a ruthless expression finally appeared on his face: "It's really not possible, I will immediately arrange for people to go over and kill them all..."

"If father dares to do this at this time, he is clearly seeking his own death!"

Hearing a stern shout, Huo Yong couldn't bear the panic in his heart anymore, and immediately roared at Huo Yuan: "This will not work, and that will not work, what do you say! Is being a father only a dead end!"

Looking at the person opposite, Huo Yong's eyes almost popped out, and his whole body trembled slightly.

Huo Yuan had never seen his father so terrified, the scowl on his face finally eased, he took a deep look at the other's almost collapsed eyes, and finally turned and left.

"You! Where are you going!"

Unexpectedly, the other party would turn around and leave, Huo Yong was taken aback, and hurriedly chased after him.But at this moment, Huo Yuan's footsteps stopped, and a word of explanation came from him.

"Son, I'm going to find Duke Huai now. If Duke Huai refuses to help, then my son really has no choice."

After finishing speaking, Huo Yuan walked out of the room without any pause.

"I call you greedy!"

But Huo Yuan looked at the back of him leaving, but couldn't help but slapped himself hard in the face...

"Your Majesty! Mr. Han took advantage of his position to secretly transport illicit salt, which seriously violated the laws of our Jin Dynasty. I have collected all the evidence of his smuggling of illicit salt, and please express it to the emperor!"

A few days later, at the Golden Luan Hall, the current Jing Zhaoyi Chen Xian handed over the crime of recording the Korean public Huo Yong's abuse of power and secretly selling private salt to the hall. There was silence in the hall, and everyone's eyes were all on Huo Yong standing in the middle of the team. .

"Your Majesty, I have been wronged! I have been wronged by others!"

Before the emperor could speak, Huo Yong's legs went limp, he knelt on the ground with a plop, and kowtowed to the emperor.

Hearing this, the emperor's face became even more furious, and he threw the memorial in front of him and shouted angrily: "Now that the evidence is solid, you still dare to say that you are wronged! If you are wronged, who else in the world will be wronged?" It's innocent!"

The emperor stared at Huo Yong sharply. Seeing that everyone in His Highness was afraid to speak out, he suddenly turned his gaze to Chen Xian who was on the side.

"It clearly remembers that the Korean government has no right to touch the purchase in the palace. What's going on?"

As soon as this remark came out, the expressions of the people in the hall immediately became weird, and they all turned their eyes to Zhao Yan.

The purchases in the palace have always been handled by the queen alone. Now that something like this happens, the queen must be implicated, and Zhao Yan, as the queen's biological son, does not know if he will be involved.

But at this moment, Huo Yong, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly raised his head: "Your Majesty, all of this is my own idea, and I am willing to suffer any punishment..."

As if hearing some big joke, the emperor laughed back in anger, and looked at Huo Yong ironically.

"As an official of the imperial court, he used his power for personal gain. Huo Yong was convicted of selling private salt. Immediately remove Huo Yong from his position as Duke of Korea, and confiscate all his family property! Put him in prison!"

Hearing the emperor's verdict on him, Huo Yong's last hope was completely shattered, his figure flickered, and he sat on the ground paralyzed, but the guard who walked in dragged him out as if he couldn't see it...

After retreating from the court, the emperor rushed back to the Qianqing Palace angrily, and immediately a young eunuch came to report.

"Your Majesty, the Empress and His Highness Duke Huai are asking to see you, do you want to see me?"

Hearing the queen's name, the emperor paused, his brows furrowed immediately, and then he let out a cold snort: "Let them in, I want to see what they have to say!"

The little eunuch took the order to retreat, but after a while, Duke Huai walked in from the palace gate with the support of the queen.

"Your Majesty, all this is the fault of my concubine. I really didn't expect that Huo Yong is such a useless person. I ask the emperor to punish me!"

Without waiting for the emperor to speak, the empress walked quickly to the emperor and knelt down as soon as she came in, and Zhao Yan also knelt down immediately.

"Father, the mother's empress is not strict in employing people. Such a mistake has brought about extremely bad influence, but I also ask the father to see that the mother has managed the harem in an orderly manner for so many years, and please forgive me!"

The emperor's eyes sized up the two of them, and his face sank when he heard the other party mention managing the harem.

"So, Yan'er, do you think that the empress' lack of strict employment this time is due to the many affairs in the harem?"

Zhao Yan's heart trembled, and he quickly explained: "Father, this son-in-law didn't mean that. The son-in-law wanted to say that no one is perfect, and it was definitely not what she wanted to use the wrong person this time. Please forgive me Empress."

"It's not what she wants!"

The emperor stared straight at the queen, and his voice was indifferent: "For so many years, I will never believe that you don't know what the two brothers of the Huo family are! You care about it, but you use the power in your hands to disrupt the rules of the palace, but I can't ignore it!"

The empress bowed her head in a submissive manner, but when she heard the emperor say that she had broken the rules, she immediately raised her head.

"Your Majesty, when you punish your concubines, they have nothing to say! But you say that your concubines have broken the rules, but you don't know where the words came from. The concubines ask themselves, thinking that they are worthy of the heaven above and the earth below. I really don’t know what else I did wrong.”

Hearing this, the emperor twitched the corners of his mouth, and his sarcasm grew stronger.

"The procurement in the palace is under the unified management of the affairs office, but everything that enters the palace needs to be strictly screened. Let me ask you, Huo Yong is only the heir of the Korean government, when did he become a businessman!"

After these words fell, the queen opened her mouth, but was unable to speak any more.

As the emperor said, all the purchases in the palace are in charge of special personnel, and she has indeed broken the rules of the palace by handing over the purchases to Huo Yong.
