Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife

Chapter 536 One jumps in, two jumps in

Hearing that the silver in his hand was official silver, the emperor's breath suddenly cooled down: "How could it be official silver?"

Shen Binghuai knelt on the ground, even though he had always been upright, there was a trace of sweat on his forehead at this time: "Reporting to the emperor, I led people to search for such silver ingots from the beggars. There are more than nine thousand taels. The victims were caught and interrogated, but they were very tight-lipped, and they behaved extremely calmly in the face of government inquiries, not at all like ordinary civilians."

"It's not a commoner, is it someone who pretended to be?" The emperor suddenly narrowed his eyes, thinking of the missing tax bank in the south of the Yangtze River.

According to the investigation of the dossier sent by King Yu, the more than three million taels of silver that Jiangnan was short of was replaced by clay lumps mixed with iron sand, but the real tax silver was nowhere to be found. But now, a large amount of suspected official money was suddenly found in the capital. How could it be such a coincidence?

Princess Yide raised her hand and rubbed the center of her brows: "I've been out shopping for a long time, and I feel very tired. Emperor, I think I'll go back first, and you should go back to the palace earlier." If the matter is important, then start early Investigate, there will be more opportunities to verify the truth.

"Sister Huang, I will come to play with you again some day." With so many officials and bankers involved, the emperor didn't have the desire to hang out.

"Okay, when the emperor has time, come back."

The emperor left in a hurry with his people, and Princess Yide also stood up: "Yao'er, let's go back too."

"Yes, grandmother."

Mu Yunyao accompanied Princess Yide back to Qinfang Garden, Xu Yanhan accompanied her for a conversation, and then went down to prepare something for dinner.

Princess Yide smiled and asked, "What would Yaoer like for dinner?"

Mu Yunyao stood up, got up and walked in front of Princess Yide, knelt down and said, "Grandmother, today's incident was designed by Yaoer, using the convenience of your birthday to expose the true and false tax and bank case, please grandma Forgive me."

Princess Yide's smile remained unchanged: "Get up, it's not a big deal, why should the whole family care so much?"

But Mu Yunyao shook her head: "If it were someone else, I would use it mercilessly, and would not take it to heart at all. It is because you are my relative that I feel uneasy when I use you."

Elder Princess Yide bent down to help Mu Yunyao up: "Don't worry about this, besides, you just took advantage of my birthday, and what you did didn't hurt me at all, so don't worry about it, just tell me well Let’s talk about what’s going on.”

"Grandmother, this matter has a long story. At the beginning, His Royal Highness King Yue and I suspected that the silver in the hands of King Jin was not in the right place, so we started to investigate and found that Yang Lian, the husband of Su Jin from the Su family, was involved with King Jin. Therefore, he was used to bribe officials and change the grades of performance appraisals, and he was imprisoned. After interrogation, it was found that he was closely related to the salt merchants in the south of the Yangtze River, and even secretly served as a bridge for the salt merchants to pave the way to the capital. The backstage he got on is His Royal Highness King Jin."

Princess Yide came to a sudden: "The news from King Ling should be sent by you and King Yue on purpose, right?"

"Yes, His Royal Highness King Yue's side is not strong enough. If you want to fight against King Jin alone, it may be difficult. So, I told King Ling the news and asked him and the Li family to help make things worse. But I didn't expect that after The emperor asked His Royal Highness King Yue to go to the south of the Yangtze River to investigate the salt tax case, but he did not expect that the game between King Ling and King Jin would become so big that it would blow up the embankment and affect so many innocent people."

"And what about the silver?"

"His Royal Highness King Yue and I only realized later that the salt merchants did not pay the tax at all, but instead folded the silver that should have been paid into silver bills and secretly sent it to His Royal Highness King Jin in Kyoto, while the Jiangnan salt tax The account books and silver are all fake. With the protection of the King of Jin, the salt merchants thought they could imitate the old example of the Yangzhou city salt tax case, and directly let the official ship carrying the salt tax and silver sink on the Linjiang River. Let the counterfeit silver taels sink into the water, and then you can find no real evidence and be safe and sound. However, the investigation of His Royal Highness King Yue in the south of the Yangtze River made King Jin and the salt merchants panic, and King Ling was staring at the sidelines. With the combination, the incident of blowing up the river embankment happened. His Royal Highness King Yue wanted to stop it, but his ability was limited and he failed. He could only search for evidence as hard as he could. The fake silver taels also saved a salt merchant and pieced together the original truth from his mouth."

Princess Yide frowned: "The king of Jin has really gone too far." The human heart is the most dangerous thing in the world.

"Thanks to your grandmother's intervention in this matter, you moved Concubine Zhen in the palace, allowing the Li family to take the opportunity to eradicate Concubine Zhen's natal family. His Royal Highness King Yue investigated and found a large number of silver notes left in the hands of Concubine Zhen's brothers. Hidden in secret. The silver that the emperor found on the beggars today is actually just the same as the official silver, with a part of the bottom of the silver deliberately cut off to confuse the public."

Princess Yide thought about it for a while, and then she understood the reason: "The salt merchants sent into the capital were silver bills, which were secretly hidden by King Yue, so the two of you deliberately prepared the silver bills today? "

"Yes, grandma, I am not reconciled to King Jin getting away with the crime so easily, so I secretly prepared silver taels, and then released false news to His Royal Highness King Ling. In fact, it was arranged by King Ling to smash the official errand with silver on the beggar's body today. Yes, everything that was found out later has nothing to do with me and King Yue."

Mu Yunyao didn't know why she told her grandmother everything so frankly. She was afraid that her mother would think that she was deep in her thoughts, but when facing her grandmother, she didn't have such worries at all.

"The matter of your juniors is naturally up to you to resolve by yourself. If you are king or loser, if you don't have the heart and ability, you will only harm more people in the end. There have always been many disputes in the Tian family. Brothers , husbands and wives, sisters... seldom can go all the way to the end, no matter how you and King Yue use strategies and strategies, you must be honest with each other, and when you use others, you must also distinguish whether there is any truth in it, and don't make any mistakes. Let yourself do what you regret."

"Yes, grandpa, please don't worry, I will definitely control the proportions." With the old lady of the Su family, Mrs. Sun, as a reference, she will not let herself go to a dead end. Anyone can take advantage of it, and in the end he will become a pawn in other people's schemes.

Elder Princess Yide looked at Mu Yunyao with deep satisfaction in her eyes: "Yao'er, if you keep moving forward, you will definitely be able to go further than your grandmother."

Hearing this, Mu Yunyao's heart tightened, and she suddenly asked, "Grandmother, do you think that if His Highness King Yue wants to fight for that seat, how likely is it?"

"As long as King Yue is willing, that seat will be his." Eldest Princess Yide's tone was exceptionally firm, "What's more, now that you and King Yue are together, if you choose him, grandmother will spare no effort to help you. "
