The Salty Little Cannon Fodder Was Targeted By the Prince

Chapter 582: The prince is a devil

Chapter 582 The king is a devil

Many of the courtiers below looked up at Du Wan secretly.

They found that Du Wan did not look at them, but just looked at the Minister of the Ministry of War with a smile. It was not really a smile, but they always felt that Du Wan's smile was cool.

Fortunately, I am not looking at myself.

Hence, many officials in the court looked at Ma Shangshu of the Ministry of War, either openly or covertly.

Ma Shangshu was sweating coldly and knelt down in panic, "I hope the emperor will see clearly. Wei Chen has never hoarded food. In order to show Wei Chen's innocence, Wei Chen is willing to open the granary at home and accept the investigation."

Niu, a very ruthless person.

Just listening, Du Wan sneered again, "The granary at home? Oh, that's awesome, Master Ma, you have built a granary at home? Ask which minister in the court has a granary in his home? At most, there is a small one. Little Miku.

It was a slip of the tongue, I just made a slip of the tongue.

Ma Shangshu was sweating profusely because he was rushed out.

The emperor felt a little depressed, but he felt a lot more relieved after being so messed up by Du Wan.

Du Wan turned to look at the emperor, meaning to wait for the emperor to speak.

As a result, the emperor actually looked forward to it and continued to look at her.

Du Wan twitched the corner of his mouth, cleared his throat, and spoke again, "Okay, since Ma Shangshu is willing to open his family's granary for inspection in order to prove his innocence, which of you is willing to do the same as Ma Shangshu in order to prove his innocence?"

The courtiers below were shaking terribly.

Damn Mr. Ma!

Whenever you say something bad, you must mention this.

Ma Shangshu dared to say this, probably because he knew that he didnt have much food stored at home.

Some ministers' homes are different. Not only are the large granaries filled, but many rooms are also temporarily used as granaries.

The emperor finally opened the gold hand, "As the princess said, who of you dares to open the family's granary in order to prove innocence?"

Everyone was as silent as a cicada.

Ma Shangshu felt that he was finished. Even if this test was over, he had offended many people.

At this time, he almost hated Du Wan to death. If she hadn't disrupted the situation, he wouldn't be in this dilemma. He dared to say that because he knew the emperor's temper and would not really send anyone to investigate. Even if the emperor is skeptical, he will think that if he dares to say this, he must not have much food in his family.

Letting people investigate will only chill the hearts of the officials.

Hence, Ma Shangshu dared to conclude that the emperor would not really let anyone investigate.

What is the matter now?

Since Du Wan interfered in this way, the emperor then expressed his intention to investigate.

This development is not only different from what Ma Shangshu imagined, but also completely different.

Now it's not the emperor who wants to vomit blood, but Ma Shangshu who wants to vomit blood, and even more so, wants to faint... Maybe he can go back to his hometown in advance and notify his family to prepare.

At this moment, Du Qian's clear voice spoke again, "Ma Shangshu, you don't have to be so nervous. We believe that you are innocent and will never be the kind of person who hoards food in private without caring about the lives of the people. In order to prevent the dispatch of troops just now, You always put the people first, and you are truly a good official who serves the country and the people."

Pei Hao echoed, "I agree with what the prince said, Ma Shangshu is indeed a role model for us. Because only Ma Shangshu dares to prove his innocence and be honest like this."

At this time, the Duke of Zhen suddenly said, "The Duke's office is willing to accept the investigation."

Then, Nanyang Bo stood up and said, "Wei Chen's family is also willing to accept the investigation."

The Weichen family is also willing. The person who stood up this time was Dingbei Hou.

Xie Zhang then came out and expressed his agreement with his father.

The atmosphere in the main hall suddenly became solemn. The few people who came forward said that they had no food in their homes, and they were very persuasive.

Because the dignitaries in the capital don't know that the three of them are the enemies of the emperor. They not only have to support their families, but also support the soldiers in the military camp for the emperor. It was enough for them not to ask the emperor for food. Did the emperor have the nerve to send someone to check their food?

As for whether they had food or not, the emperor knew it well.

He had long received news that these three families were doing their best to buy grain everywhere. The Pei family even spent a lot of money and sent people overseas to buy it.

"Why are you joining in the fun?" The emperor said angrily, "Get out of here."

This, Your Majesty, you...

The Duke of Zhen was too embarrassed to say anything, and the look in his eyes that hesitated to speak meant everything.

The emperor glared at him secretly and told him to shut up.

Actually, he wanted to take the opportunity to ask the emperor if he could share some of the food with him soon. Judging from the trend just now, the emperor is 100% able to get a batch of grain.

The Duke of Zhen Guo did not believe in the emperor, he believed in the Du brothers and sisters.

With Du Qian, a sinister young man, directing behind the scenes, Du Wan, a powerful force to suppress, and his son assisting from the side, there is nothing that the three of them cannot accomplish.

Sure enough, no matter how those officials denied the hoarding of grain.

The emperor still issued an order to investigate the granary of Ma Shangshu's family. At the same time, in order to show fairness and justice, other families would also have people go and take a look. Then, he ordered Pei Hao to lead the imperial guards to personally investigate the granaries of each house. Then Xie Zhang and Mu Si'an were arranged to assist and follow Pei Hao's orders.

Du Wan hurriedly jumped down and patted the hem of her clothes, "Your Majesty, I, the princess, will come with me and take a look."

Yes. The emperor blurted out and agreed.

Du Qian just wanted to stand up and follow him to have a look, but the emperor looked at him and said, "Qian'er, it's time for me to drink medicine at this time. From now on, you will be in charge of the government on my behalf. You must be responsible for everything in the northwest." Lets discuss the outcome.

Then Du Qian expressed concern about his identity and asked him to go back to drink medicine as much as possible and have a good rest. He would have no problem leaving this place to him. He also promised, "If we can't reach an outcome after the discussion, we will never retreat."

The civil and military officials below, the king of the county is a devil.

No matter how the civil and military people behaved, the emperor was content and allowed the chief steward to help him leave.

In fact, many people are well aware that Du Qian is now using the name of Northwest to keep all civil and military officials in this hall and prevent them from spreading the news outside and causing trouble.

The people in this palace are not just officials.

Even the **** standing guard was not good at leaving the hall.

When the emperor left, he only took the chief steward with him, and even the accompanying eunuchs stayed behind. This is to prevent someone among them from spreading the affairs of the court outside the palace.

It is always good to err on the side of caution.

Because of Du Qian's strict defense, no news was received from the outside.

Pei Hao brought a large number of imperial guards and notified Gu Li to arrange for officers and soldiers from the Imperial City Division to maintain law and order and seal roads.

Then the Praetorian Guard was divided into three.

It was Du Wan who suggested that Xie Zhang and Mu Si'an each lead a team of guards. "When you go to search, search for food first. If you find the location of the food, don't rush to move it. Write it down first and leave it to some people to look at. Wait, then move on to the next one. This is to prevent others behind you from receiving the news and take precautions."

Du Wan added, "Also, check the general ledger."

"What account book?" Mu Si'an asked, "Looking for the account book of official corruption?"

No, Im going to the principals wife to get the account book of the annual grain harvest.
