As soon as these words were spoken, not only Li Mu, but also Emperor Chengjing's expression changed strangely in an instant.

But at this moment, the effectiveness of all civil and military officials present is reflected.

It is true that if Pei Yao had any problems, he would not be able to pay any debts when confronting him on the spot, and his reputation in the dynasty would be destroyed. But if he had no problems, Emperor Chengjing could not forcibly charge him in front of all civil and military officials.

Li Mu is the prime minister, Lu Chuan is the same, and the appointment of the late emperor. In terms of this, Pei Yao's power in the court is no worse than that of the eldest prince.

So at this moment, Emperor Chengjing had to pinch his nose and ask Pei Yao to bring up his account book.

"The account book is now in the yamen, and my son will send someone to get it immediately." Pei Yao said.

Upon hearing this, Li Mu immediately opened his mouth, "It is suspicious that the prince sent someone to go there. The emperor, I think it is best to send someone to get it together."

When he said this, Pei Yao glanced at him coldly, sneered, and bowed.

"Since Prime Minister Li is worried and feels that he is deceitful or suspicious, please ask the emperor to send someone to go with his son's eunuch."

This was a bit sarcastic, and Emperor Chengjing and Li Mu's faces were a little bad.

But Emperor Chengjing finally sent his confidants to find Hong Zheng who was waiting outside the palace, and went to Pei Yao's office office to get the account book.

Even though the matter was out of the palace, some news was quickly received in the East Palace during this period.

The content is that Pei Yao was falsely accused of embezzling disaster relief money and food, and was detained by the emperor in the Golden Palace, which was verified by the dynasty.

The news about Concubine Yang is the most well-informed, which is also due to the fact that she has been treating her slaves well for so long. Her skills have not been in vain.

Especially now that she is pregnant, the Crown Princess is infected with an epidemic and will die for a lifetime.

Many people secretly guessed that if the Crown Princess died of illness, would Concubine Yang be able to be properly promoted?

In this way, we have to be more than just flattering and send the news immediately.

After learning the news, Concubine Yang suddenly changed her face.

Corruption is not a trivial matter, it was still detained by Emperor Chengjing at that time. If it was true, then Pei Yao would be in danger this time!

"The soldiers from Huizhou are coming, and it will take as soon as one day. Quick, Yunrou, please write a letter to my father and make him be alert immediately. If something goes wrong in the capital, try to solve the prince's trap immediately. When something happens to your highness.

, The East Palace was sealed, and the news could not be delivered!"

Yun Rou was also so scared that her face turned pale and hurriedly left.

Yun Qian also supported Yang and comforted her carefully, for fear that Yang would get angry.

However, as the legitimate daughter of Nanning Hou Mansion, Yang still had the courage and courage, so he quickly calmed down.

"I think Your Highness has always been cautious and a gentleman, so he should not do anything about embezzling disaster relief money and food. This time it was mostly accused by the eldest prince and others. Your Highness may have a solution to it."

"Yes, concubine, you are pregnant now, so be more careful. Don't be frightened and worried, and get angry."

Yun Qian advised carefully.

However, when she said this, Yang's eyes flashed slightly, as if she had thought of something, and then she whispered.

"For such an important thing, I am a pregnant woman, and my mother's family is still far away in Huizhou. I can't help Your Highness even if I know about it. The Lu family behind the Crown Princess can help."

Yun Qian was slightly stunned, then she bowed and said, "I will immediately order someone to inform the Crown Princess."

And at this time Biluozhai.

Fang Yoon was a little late and also learned that Pei Yao was in danger, but she soon realized that there was something wrong.

"I was summoned by Your Highness to serve Bimo before. I happened to meet the second prince who came to discuss matters with Your Highness. Judging from Hong Zheng's behavior, it seems that the second prince has a good relationship with Your Highness. The second prince's father-in-law is the Minister of Revenue.

How could Your Highness suffer a loss in the Ministry of Revenue?”

"But I heard that the second prince is now heading north to help the eldest prince provide disaster relief. Could it be that the second prince turned against him and used his father-in-law's position to join forces with the eldest prince to deal with His Highness?"

Qingrong frowned and questioned.

Fang Xuan's eyes were darker, and after thinking for a while, he shook his head.

"It's useless to think too much. We can't do anything here. It's better to protect ourselves first. The centipede worm will die without being stiff. Your Highness's power should not be underestimated. This time, if the eldest prince's party plans, it will never be possible once.

You will completely defeat Your Highness.”

After hearing what she said, Qingrong had to nod and stop talking.

Golden Palace.

In less than half an hour, the account book that Pei Yao mentioned was taken to the scene.

Now three books are placed together and presented together to Emperor Chengjing.

After seeing it, Emperor Chengjing's expression seemed a little stiff.

Seeing this, Li Mu's heart was thrusting more and more, and his spine was a little tightened, and he felt vaguely falling into a trap.

And at this moment, Pei Yao had already spoken in a deep voice.

"The three books that the emperor saw were all false, but if you only look at two of them, it would be impossible to match them. The son-in-law did ask the Ministry of Revenue for four million taels of silver and one and six hundred and fifty thousand stones from the Ministry of Revenue.

70% of the rice had been transported north by the Ministry of War and handed over to the hands of the eldest prince, but the remaining 30% were not corrupted by the sons, but were sent by the sons to directly send them to the prefectures and counties with the worst disaster.

Local officials will directly use it to provide relief to the victims. The third account book is clearly written. If the emperor does not believe it, he can send someone north to verify it."

After he finished speaking, before Emperor Chengjing could not sit still, Li Mu asked sternly.

"The prince asked for food and money from the Ministry of Revenue, so why didn't he dispatch it in a unified manner, but instead sent it to the disaster area separately. Such behavior is a bit suspicious. Moreover, the emperor ordered the disaster relief matter and the eldest prince was responsible. The prince is overstepping his authority!"

"If Gu did not do this, I am afraid that the number of refugees who fled south at this moment would be twice as many as the capital!"

At this moment, Pei Yao also changed his gentleness and looked sharply at Li Mu, and he was powerful without anger.

Somehow, Li Mu, who was an official in two dynasties, vaguely felt the power of the late emperor on Pei Yao, and inexplicably felt a little afraid of this young prince who could be his grandchildren from the bottom of his heart.

Pei Yao didn't care what he thought, but continued to speak to Emperor Chengjing in a deep voice.

"This time, the distribution of money and grain was indeed a decision made by the son minister privately, but because he thought that the eldest prince went north and checked the disaster while walking along the way, it took too long, so he sent some money and grain first.

The local urgent need was that the son minister thought that the emperor's uncle would hand over the logistics of allocating money and food to the son minister, and the son minister could be dispatched in this way, but unexpectedly, it attracted people with ulterior motives. He slandered and framed them like this, and asked the emperor to make the decision for the son minister!"

His voice was calm and powerful, and every official present could hear it clearly, especially Emperor Chengjing, who was in charge.

At this moment, Lu Chuan also spoke immediately.

"Emperor, since he came out to slander the prince today, Prime Minister Li pressed forward step by step, confronting him in a tit-for-tat manner, fearing that the charge of corruption could not be placed on the prince. And I look at it, this Lord Qin is only six times

Where can I get these two books? I found something strange and did not report it to the Minister of Revenue at the first time. Instead, it was revealed by the current dynasty and reported the report from the higher level. Who gave him the courage or who ordered him!"

As the two of them spoke one after another, Li Mu's face gradually became dark and ashen, his old face was stiff and trembling, and his beard shook a little.

Emperor Chengjing was not much better at this moment. He glanced at Li Mu, his brows were furrowing like twists.

In the end, I had to say one thing, it was important, and I would like to discuss this matter after I had to send someone to verify it.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the emperor was still biased towards Prime Minister Li and the eldest prince, but this time it was indeed far-fetched. I'm afraid Prime Minister Li would have to suffer a little.

As soon as the matter was delayed, it was almost noon when the morning court was over. The more embarrassing Li Mu and others left, Pei Yao would be as happy as he would.

As soon as there was something to discuss, Pei Yao called Prime Minister Lu and others to go to the East Palace to discuss matters.

However, as soon as I came back, I saw Fuxi rushing forward with a ugly expression, crying and kneeling down and said.
Chapter completed!
