Chapter 289 Big Gift

Jiang Changning remembered this and waited for two days before finding an opportunity to tell Prince Jin.

The King of Jin pondered for a moment and said: "Huang Shidu is pedantic and does not know how to adapt. It is unlikely that he will seek refuge with King Qing."

Jiang Changning understood, "interference item."

"But you are right to be so vigilant. I will check again. Huang Shidu's pedantic and inflexible appearance is most likely fake."

"Your Majesty, there is no need to comfort me."

King Jin smiled, "I'm not comforting you, but I really think you did a good job."

In his opinion, the head mistress of each house, his little princess, has a broad mind and a holistic view of things she does.

"Actually, I have thought that even if Huang Shidu is really a member of King Qing, he is still an abandoned son. King Qing deliberately threw him out to distract our energy."

"It's also possible that King Qing is using Huang Shidu as bait to lure out our people."

"Maybe it's still a serial plan. If one plan fails, try another one."

Jiang Changning has thought a lot in the past two days, and his analysis is very clear.

Still worried, he warned: "That Wang Shanzi, find someone to keep an eye on you, don't be careless."

He also promised King Jin, "I will be in charge of everything in the mansion and I will ensure that there will be no trouble. Don't worry."

Prince Jin pulled her into his arms and said, "I have never worried about you in the house, but you can rest assured that I am outside the house."

Jiang Changning smiled, "Okay."

"The power of a husband and wife who are of the same mind can break through metal."

Jiang Changning didn't care about the lack of money. She was so vigilant because she just wanted to live a more stable life and didn't want to have so many twists and turns.

Wan Ling's elder brother and younger sister were very patient. They met Wan Ling twice more, but they only talked about brotherhood and nothing else.

Jiang Changning smiled and said: "It's a fox, and it will always show its tail. They are not in a hurry, and neither are we."

People inside and outside the mansion continued to stare at the three Wanling siblings.

There hasn't been much progress on the Wanling siblings' side.

The King of Jin found out that Dare, the right commander of the army, had embezzled military supplies.

In the court, the censors immediately made great efforts to impeach him. In addition to embezzling military supplies, his family also brought many charges for the censors to impeach.

His eldest brother robbed prosperous shops with others, framed opponents, put people in jail, and seized other people's property.

His sister, during times of disaster, hoards large amounts of food and sells it at high prices.

There is also his younger brother who forcibly takes girls from good families as concubines.

This family behaves unscrupulously and is truly lawless.

"The crime is extremely heinous and should be executed according to the law." The censor is honest and hates evil as much as hatred.

The King of Qing and the King of Yu wanted to protect this right commander, but the evidence was conclusive, "Commander Zeng was a strong general, who pacified the Western Border, took the lead, and made great military exploits."

"He is a military general who has brought peace to the country. Of course, he has made military exploits in establishing himself. However, he has already received a reward. Isn't it inappropriate to use his merits to compensate for his crimes at this time?" King Changshan said with a sideways glance at King Qing.

At the insistence of the King of Jin and others, Commander Zeng was thrown into prison, and three days later he was pushed out of the Meridian Gate and beheaded in public display.

As for the family members who relied on his power to do evil things, their fate was not very good either.

Those who should be killed should be killed, those who should be exiled should be exiled, and those who should be sold should be sold.

The Yin of Jingzhao Prefecture followed the order and took the government officials to raid the house.

After leaving the court, King Qing looked at King Jin with a sinister look in his eyes, "My nephew, King Yu, is really a good man."

"It's just a matter of courtesy." King Jin Yun Danfengqing said.

"A good courtesy is reciprocated. Okay, wait, Uncle Wang will give you a big gift in return."

"What kind of gift does Uncle Wang have? Even if you give it to me, my nephew will be able to accept it. It's just a gift that my nephew is returning. I wonder if Uncle Wang dares to accept it?"

"You are not ashamed to speak loudly."

"Uncle Wang, you are already old, so you still need to take care of yourself."

After saying this, the King of Jin walked away.

Prince Qing looked at his back and spat heavily, "The villain succeeds."

Not far away, King Yu frowned.

The situation in the court was changing, the King of Qing and the King of Jin were fighting fiercely, and officials became the target of criticism from time to time.

Wu Shaohai, the minister of Guanglu Temple, was one of the unlucky ones. Several thieves sneaked into his house and stole, but they were discovered by the Wu family's servants.

"Rahoo, hoohoo!" the thief shouted and fled down the long street.

The servants of the Wu family chased him all the way. This street was full of officials. Upon hearing the sound, the guards from various prefectures also came out to help.

These thieves were carrying several large bags of stuff on their backs. They couldn't run fast and were about to be overtaken when they saw the officers and soldiers patrolling the streets.

"Throw in some ideas," one of the thieves shouted.

Several thieves immediately dropped their stolen goods, climbed onto the low wall next to them, jumped onto the roof, and fled away quickly.

"Bank notes, lots of bank notes."

"There are also gold, silver and jewelry."

Those stolen goods were an eye-opener for the soldiers of Jingzhao Prefecture and the guards from various prefectures.

The Minister of Guanglu Temple was only a third-rank official, in charge of sacrifices, court meetings, and banquets, so how could he be so wealthy?

This was just stolen by thieves. I'm afraid there are more treasures in the Wu family's warehouse.

The rumor that the Wu family was as wealthy as the enemy spread throughout the streets and alleys of Beijing in a short period of time.

The imperial censors immediately wrote a letter of impeachment, saying, "Wu Shaohai must have taken advantage of his position to commit corruption and accept bribes. The property involved was huge and the amount was huge. I beg your Majesty to thoroughly investigate this matter and set the course for justice."

"Uncle King Jin will be solely responsible for investigating this case." The little emperor trusted King Jin and ignored the livid King Qing.

After retiring from the court, King Jin took the initiative to find King Qing and said, "Uncle King Qing, do you like this great gift?"

King Qing glared angrily, "Shu Zi is disgusting."

"The old thief is shameless." King Jin said to each other.

"Those thieves are your people."

"Uncle Wang has no proof, so don't talk nonsense."

Prince Qing snorted coldly and walked away.

The items confiscated from the Wu family are amazing.

Not to mention anything else, the gold eight-treasure basin with double dragon and phoenix patterns surprised all the officials who came to search the house.

The golden eight-treasure basin with double dragon and phoenix patterns was used by the royal family. Logically speaking, it should be in the palace's warehouse now, but now it is in the Wu family's warehouse.

Wu Shao pirates use the palace property!

It’s so brave!

Wu Shaohai, who was imprisoned, could not defend himself. This golden eight-treasure basin with double dragon and phoenix patterns did not have legs and would not come to the Wu family by itself. The late emperor never rewarded this basin to anyone.

"The guilty minister is guilty." Wu Shaohai fell to the ground.

"In addition to this basin, you also stole the treasures in the palace. If you tell the truth, I will give you a good pleasure." King Jin interrogated him personally.

"No, the guilty minister didn't dare, so the guilty king stole this treasure."

"Be punished." King Jin ordered coldly.

The whip struck Wu Shaohai in one stroke, leaving Wu Shaohai's skin torn and bloody.

He had been living a good life for many years, how could he bear this kind of suffering, "I said, Your Majesty, I said, don't fight."

As soon as King Jin raised his hand, the executioner took away his whip.

"A cow lying in jadeite and a pair of jadeite covered bowls."

Wu Shaohai was the minister of Guanglu Temple five years ago. After completing his three-year term, he was re-elected for one term. What he initially stole from the palace were small items.

Later, he became more and more courageous, and the items he stole became larger and larger, and became more and more precious.

"Who did you give these things to?" King Jin asked in a deep voice.

"I, I can't remember clearly."

King Jin leaned back in his chair and said, "Exercise punishment."

The executioner whipped Wu Shaohai again.
