You Jiuli's expression changed, and she quickly stepped forward and asked, "Father-in-law, what else has the Lord forgotten?"
"Your Majesty has indeed forgotten something." Bai Ye's voice was calm, and with a wave of his hand, several factory guards immediately took Wu Sanfeng into custody.
“Boy, you’re saying one dirty word after another, and you’re shouting it so smoothly!”
"Come to the prison with our family! Your parents don't care about you, and our family will take care of you for them."
"Asshole, let me go. Did I say something wrong? He is just the Dog Emperor. He... poof~"
Before Wu Sanfeng finished speaking, Bai Ye suddenly appeared in front of him, punched him in the stomach, and spurted out a large mouthful of blood.
"Take it away." Bai Ye snorted coldly.
"Eunuch, my brother has a bad mouth but is not bad in nature, please be merciful." You Jiuli begged.
"Haha, even a three-year-old child understands the principle that disaster comes from the mouth, but he doesn't know?" Bai Ye said calmly: "This is the will of the Holy One, and our family does not dare to resist it."
"But the Holy Spirit said that as long as you do your job well, his life will not be in danger. At most, he will suffer some physical pain."
"Oh, by the way, the Holy One said that he still likes Miss your unruly demeanor at the beginning. Remember to restore it next time."
"???"
You Jiuli felt powerless in her heart.
This is imperial power. Even though she is a well-known talented woman in the imperial city, she is still like an ant in front of the emperor.
"Miss, let them take Mr. Wu away like this? I'm afraid we can't explain it to the master." A guard whispered.
"What can I do? I have already warned him not to act out of anger."
"It would be fine if it were anyone else. The one I provoke this time is the current Holy Emperor. Even if the entire Jiuli Chamber of Commerce is involved, it will be useless."
"It's better to let him suffer a little, and he will save himself from getting into trouble every day."
"Don't worry, as long as the Holy One still needs us, he will be fine. Go back!"
Youjiuli shook his head and sighed, then led the people away.
Returning to Jiuli Pavilion, You Jiuli immediately returned to his room and checked what Lin Xu had given him.
When he saw what was written on the paper, his face suddenly turned pale.
It turned out that he was waiting for her here.
...
Imperial Palace, Ningyuan Hall.
Bai Ye walked in and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, Wu Sanfeng has been taken to the East Factory. What should we do with him?"
"First of all, just beat him once a day and don't kill him." Lin Xu said calmly: "Have you asked Cao Zhengchun to investigate the Jiuli Chamber of Commerce?"
"It has been notified. Eunuch Cao said that the results will be available tomorrow."
"Okay, go down!"
However, after a while, he found that Bai Ye was motionless, and he immediately asked doubtfully: "Is there anything else you can do?"
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I'm just a little confused."
"Tell me?"
"Your Majesty, are you going to accuse Jiuli Chamber of Commerce just for half of their future income?"
"Slave doesn't look like punishment, but looks like reward."
"If you just reward them, why does Your Majesty need to convict them?"
Bai Ye looked confused. As a slave, this was not his responsibility to ask, but he thought about it again and again, but still couldn't think of an answer.
"There are two things in convicting them."
"First, if I use them, the Jiuli Chamber of Commerce must have something to handle in order to avoid accidents. They have different origins from you, people's hearts are unpredictable, and everything requires multiple eyes."
"Secondly, the flood in Xishanji County requires a lot of food. Even if Xue Jingruo can help, I'm afraid it's still not optimistic."
"The thing I gave You Jiuli was actually a handwritten letter."
"Order her to collect 500,000 shi of grain within half a month."
Lin Xu's voice was calm.
Bai Ye widened his eyes and said in shock: "Your Majesty, you should know what 500,000 stones of food means!"
"Can a mere Jiuli Chamber of Commerce do it?"
"It only takes half a month. Even if they gather together in the end, I'm afraid the Jiuli Chamber of Commerce will..."
"If it can't be done, there is no need for the Jiuli Chamber of Commerce to exist! Just by Wu Sanfeng leading people into Ningyuan Palace, he can kill them all!"
"What's more, I want someone who can do things. If anyone can do it, then what do I need her for?"
Hearing His Majesty's cold voice, even in the white night, I couldn't help but feel a chill down my back.
The Sacred Heart is unpredictable.
However, what His Majesty said is not unreasonable. There are not many people in the world who are willing to serve the current Holy One.
Why bother using Jiuli Chamber of Commerce?
"It might be impossible for others to accomplish this, but if it were the Jiuli Chamber of Commerce, it would be possible." Lin Xu continued.
"Your Majesty really believes in the Jiuli Chamber of Commerce!" Bai Ye smiled.
"I'm just giving them a chance. I won't interfere with the food issue."
Lin Xu thought of the brown rice sold by Jiuli Chamber of Commerce today.
That kind of food for a wealthy person is equivalent to chronic poison.
But the people even eat grass roots, tree bark, and Guanyin soil. No matter how bad brown rice is, it is still better than these things.
The fiery scene at the scene speaks for itself.
The Imperial City is still like this. If it is given to the victims, it may be a life-saving straw for them to survive.
He could only hope that more people would survive the flood. As long as people are alive, there is still a chance for everything.
.....
The next day, Zhengqing Hall.
Xue Jingruo sat at the door of the palace, staring at the pot of mist roses in trance.
"The Emperor has arrived!"
There was a sharp sound, and Lin Xu walked in at a snail's pace, followed by Bai Ye and Cao Zhengchun, pretending to be ordinary eunuchs.
"My son, please see your mother!"
"Flat body! Sit down!"
The maid immediately brought out a chair and placed it next to it.
"Thank you, Empress." Lin Xu sat down directly: "Empress, your health is feeling better! Do you need to call the imperial doctor to take a look?"
"No, the Ai family is fine."
Xue Jingruo shook his head and waved his hand. A maid was holding a tray with a memorial on it.
"Xu'er, take a look! This was ordered by the Ai family early in the morning."
"My child obeys the order!" Lin Xu took the memorial and opened it. When he saw the contents, he stood up angrily: "How dare they, how dare they do this?"
"Thanks to Xu'er for explaining it to the Ai family, otherwise the Ai family would still be in the dark." Xue Jingruo said in a deep voice.
Lin Xu knelt down and said: "My child, I beg my mother to make the decision for those victims!"
"Those beasts openly sold the food distributed by the imperial court under the guise of disaster relief. It is an unforgivable crime! They are unworthy of being ministers!"
"Xu'er, get up. Since the Ai family has shown you, they will definitely not stand idly by."
"But the Ai family is just a woman. Even if she is the Queen Mother, she is not allowed to interfere in politics in the harem, and she cannot do anything about many things."
"But the Ai family has sent someone to call the Duke of Zhenguo. Don't talk when you are nearby. Leave everything to the Ai family!"
"Thank you, Queen Mother."
Xue Jingruo stood up and looked at the rising sun in the sky: "The sun and the moon change, spring, summer, autumn and winter. Dawn also comes in this world. But when will the people of Qianwu usher in the real dawn."
"The late emperor was tyrannical, he was drunk in wine and sex every day, and he never cared about the life and death of the people."
"In order to favor a group of demon concubines, he did not hesitate to kill the people for fun. The Ai family saw with his own eyes that he took out the heart of a three-year-old child and gave the heart blood to the concubine to accompany him with wine!"
"The child saw his heart getting further and further away from him, and finally died with eyes full of confusion and pain."
"That look will never be forgotten by the Ai family."
"But the Ai family was still young at that time, so even if they saw it, there was nothing they could do!"
"The Xue family rose up with great righteousness and evaded the imperial power, thinking that the people would have a good life."
"Now it's become a joke!"
"As the Xue family, the Ai family are also sinners through the ages!"
“The people of Qianwu are suffering so much!!”
