When is it time for mandarin ducks to say goodbye?

Chapter 99 The Darkness Behind

With tears all over her face, the empress said, "Your Majesty, the Zhang family has worked hard for the court for so many years. You can't just write off their hard work for so many years just for this one thing!"

"Hard work?" The emperor was furious: "Is it hard work for the court and me, or is it hard work to accept bribes and corruption!"

"Royal father." Xiao Qiyu finally understood, and hurried in with her skirt and pulled his sleeves: "What's the big deal, why do you want your mother to cry like this?"

"What's the big deal?" Emperor Wen of Jin looked at her dumbfounded: "Qi Yu, do you know how much money the Zhang family swallowed? Do you know how many people they killed and caused people's resentment to boil!"

It is rare to be yelled at by her own father, Xiao Qiyu paused for a moment, and said quite aggrieved: "What's the use of yelling at me..."

"This matter is very important, but your mother is partial to the Zhang family and wants me to spare them." The emperor laughed back angrily: "Tell me, how can you forgive me!"

"What a simple matter." Xiao Qiyu took it for granted, "Wouldn't it be good to find a few people to take the blame? There are so many ministers in the court, and there are also many corrupt people."

Almost out of breath, the emperor leaned on the dragon chair and coughed several times, and looked at her regretfully: "I dote on you so much that I spoil you so selfishly and boldly!"

The evidence was conclusive, and they were all sued to him. There were riots in several places at the same time. As an emperor, if he was still biased, the world would have to be turned upside down!
"Go, you and your queen mother, go back and think about the past." Relieved, the emperor said angrily: "The Zhang family can do whatever they want, and I will never tolerate it!"

"Your Majesty!" cried the Queen.

The emperor waved his sleeves and left without looking back. After leaving Qifeng Palace, he went to the other concubines' palaces in the harem.

The queen cried and sat on the chair, looking at Xiao Qiyu with tears in her eyes: "What should I do? Your uncle is only in his 30s, so he can't just die like this."

Xiao Qiyu didn't care about complaining anymore, she frowned and said: "My son-in-law immediately go back and let the son-in-law find a way, he is smarter."

"Okay." Thinking of Gu Qinhuai, the queen nodded: "You go back first, if there is any news, let someone come and inform the queen mother."

"Yeah!" Xiao Qiyu left holding her skirt.

Wei Xianyuan squatted on the top of the palace wall and ate melon seeds, Wei Young leaned against the palace wall and watched the guards and palace guards coming and going, and said happily: "The biggest family in the dynasty will be disbanded as soon as something happens."

"Bah" took a mouthful of melon seeds, Wei Xianyuan said: "The Zhang family is not so easy to disperse, the foundation is too deep. This time Zhang Yongsheng seems to be a capital crime, but as long as the queen is here, he still has a great chance of surviving."

The melon seed shell fell on her head, Wei Young shook her head and looked up at him: "This Zhang Yongsheng is the one your aunt married earlier, right?"

"Yes." Wei Xianyuan smiled: "He will die badly."

"But if the emperor wants to let him go, how can he die?" Wei Young wrinkled her nose: "Could it be that you went to kill him?"

"This Zhang Yongsheng is very afraid of death. He has always brought many martial arts masters by his side. It is difficult even for me to kill him. With his status, once the assassination fails and he is caught, the assassin will have no good end. So after so many years, I haven't moved." Wei Xianyuan hooked his lips, and took a mouthful of melon seeds: "Now I can move."

Wei Young was taken aback: "You know how to kill people?"

"Otherwise, do you think that I became famous at a young age because of this face?" Wei Xianyuan rolled his eyes: "I am not a kind person, I will kill the damned, have you ever seen people who are not willing before they die?" Expressions? I've seen them a lot."

She was so frightened that she didn't even take pictures of the melon seeds, Wei Young took a few steps back and stared at him.

"I'm afraid now, isn't it too late?" Wei Xianyuan curled his lips: "You have slept with a murderer for many nights."

"Shut up!" With a blushing face, Wei Young stomped her feet: "Speak seriously in broad daylight!"

"The serious thing is... Do you want to see the darkness behind this palace?" Wei Xianyuan raised his eyebrows.

Wei Young nodded innocently: "Okay, what kind of darkness? Secret?"

Wei Xianyuan chuckled twice: "You will know when the time comes."

The court exploded, the Zhang family was accused, and many cases of Zhang Yongsheng were uncovered and put on the emperor's desk.Even if Emperor Wen of Jin had the intention to spare his life at the beginning, he couldn't do it now. He could only hide in the harem and hand over the matter to Prime Minister Lin for the time being.

Prime Minister Lin was furious when he learned that Lin Ruozhi was bullied by the princess and asked her to reconcile with Liu Wenxin. Of course, it is impossible for such a person who has been in court for a long time to express his emotions directly in the palace, so he got this matter, He handled it impartially, waved away the pressure from the Queen's side and the princess's interference, and immediately locked Zhang Yongsheng into the Si Nei Yamen, awaiting interrogation.

"This Lin Zhiwei really doesn't know good and bad!" In the Qifeng Palace in the evening, the queen said angrily: "If you don't eat oil and salt, you don't eat soft and hard. What is he trying to do!"

Xiao Qiyu frowned: "I'm afraid that Lin Ruozhi said something behind his back, that's why he targeted uncle like this."

"It's really unreasonable!" The queen was so angry that she walked around the hall several times.

Xiao Qiyu said with a headache: "Mother, don't be so impulsive, the son-in-law has already told me what to do, please calm down and listen to me."

Wei Young was hugged by Wei Xianyuan, squatting on the eaves of Qifeng Palace, her eyes rolled around, and she heard Xiao Qiyu say to the Queen:

"The son-in-law said that the current situation is on the cusp, and uncle's death penalty is inevitable. It's better not to do unnecessary things, and just follow the prime minister's wishes. He can find someone who looks like uncle, and when the time comes, push him to the beheading stage and put him on the stage." Uncle changed out."

"Then your uncle also has nothing?" The queen frowned, "The Zhang family's wealth is all returned to the national treasury. How can people be reconciled?"

"Queen mother, money is something outside of the body, and there is always a way to get it back, as long as uncle is here." Xiao Qiyu comforted her: "Right now, father has something to say about you, so don't make it difficult for him, but let yourself lose My son has heard that concubine Shu has been serving her bed for several days in a row recently."

"That little hoof can't get out of my stomach. I'm not afraid of her." The queen snorted softly, then thought for a while, and said, "What you said makes sense, let the son-in-law arrange it. No matter how hard I work, it really won't work." ,we can only do this."

Wei Young frowned, thinking that people who grow up like Zhang Yong are really unlucky, they will lose their lives for no reason.This empress is the mother of a country, so she is so selfish and stingy, she has been favored for so many years, and the emperor has no eyesight.

They muttered and talked for a while, Wei Xianyuan obviously had no patience to listen, picked her up and flew to the front palace, her clothes fluttered in the night wind, without disturbing any of the guards.
