Chapter 23 Black Market
Chapter 23 Black Market
Perhaps it was because of the bond between mother and daughter, Yan Yu Ni felt inexplicably sad for some reason at this moment.
She sat blankly in the empty hall, looking out the window at the dark night sky.
The one who doesn't sleep at night and doesn't wake up during the day is Yan Yu Ni.
It was dark when she woke up.
If you don't eat for a day, the aftereffects will appear.
His limbs were weak and every step was limp. As soon as he walked out of the bedroom, he couldn't go on and fell to the ground.
Adhering to the principle of taking a break after falling down, Yan Yuni began to appreciate the beautiful scenery outside the window.
Staring blankly at one place for a long time, the thoughts of this person who couldn't find a sense of belonging for a long time flew away completely.
Father, is power really so fascinating? It can make people infatuated and infatuated. It can make the noble families' mothers not mothers, fathers not fathers, daughters not daughters, sons not sons... and husbands not husbands.
She wanted to just sit there and stare into the distance, but reality did not allow it.
She, a person who needed to overcome all difficulties, could not sit still for long, so she got up, changed into her night clothes, and disappeared into the ink.
Cathay Palace
The man in black knelt on one knee and presented an account book, "Your Majesty, the Minister of War has been corrupt and accepted bribes. Here is the evidence."
The queen flipped through the account book with an angry look on her face and said "OK" three times in a sarcastic tone.
"What a great Minister of War! The silver I gave her was not for her to build a palace more luxurious than the Imperial Palace."
Oh, people will change, didn’t I already know that?
The General Zhennan, the Minister of War, the Minister of Justice, oh yes, and the maid of the Ministry of Works... OK, OK, OK, my third princess, your father has taught you very well, but I don't know if your father has ever told you what it was like when I was competing for the throne!
The queen's eyes were red, and she suppressed her inner anger and ordered severe punishment for her minister who had served her well.
"His Majesty!"
Hearing Zhao Yu's exclamation, the empress lowered her head slightly, looked at her kneeling and said, "Why, do you want to disobey my order?"
"I dare not, I dare not."
The Queen snorted coldly, "If we don't punish corrupt officials severely, how can we be worthy of the people? We will confiscate their homes and investigate them from today on."
At this moment, the Queen thought of the scene when they were young and paraded together on horseback, and her eyes became confused for a moment.
"imprison!"
Hearing this, Zhao Yu's face turned pale, knowing that he could not protect his master's only friend in the world.
Her relatives were either dead or injured, and few of the survivors really cared about her. Now she had no friends at all. The subordinates began to feel sad for their masters, and so did her master.
The emperor suddenly investigated the Minister of War, and people were in panic, especially the party of the third princess.
When the sixteenth princess and her group received the news, they were all eager to squeeze in to see their master.
No one, not a single one. Yan Yu Ni waved her hand and asked Ye Yu to return all the posts.
She stretched out her hand to cover her eyes, and from time to time moved her index and middle fingers to let the sunlight in. When she got used to it, she slowly put her hands down and called the servants in to help her get up.
I am back. I am back in Yanhe Palace. I can no longer fly wherever I want like before.
Really, the Third Princess doesn’t look that powerful. I was only out of the palace for three months and I came back unscathed.
Tsk tsk tsk, I just found two black markets that can melt the official silver, and I'm back. Should I cry or laugh?
Manyue Tower, Tianxiang Tower, Baicao Pavilion. Yan Yuni narrowed her eyes and repeated the name "Baicao Pavilion" three times in her mind.
It can only be you. If nothing happens to me, the suspicious empress will take action against your master.
You can earn money again if you lose it, but if your master’s life is lost, it is really gone.
If issuing an order to investigate caused panic among the people, then finding three boxes of unmelted official silver from the home of the Minister of War shocked the government and the public.
The cabinet ministers who had not attended court for many years were alarmed, and so were the princes of the previous emperor's generation.
They all expressed their desire to thoroughly investigate corrupt officials and give the people a fair and strict court.
The queen, who has always had the final say, has never suffered such humiliation.
The investigation and punishment of officials lasted from early March to mid-April.
Since the strict investigation into corruption began, the relationship between Yan Yuni and the Third Princess has become increasingly tense, and whenever their eyes meet, the officials around them are scared half to death.
She had even boasted to her friends about replacing the Tenth Sister in the Third Brother’s heart, but was praised and ridiculed by that guy who didn’t know the rules.
What is a bad friend? This is a bad friend!
"Hey, hey, hey, stop talking. Don't I have any dignity? It's been almost two months. Why are you still holding on to this matter?"
Yan Pingle: "No matter how long it takes, I will say, isn't it good to live a peaceful and stable life?" Why should I provoke her when she is still young and weak?
That, that third princess, her uncle is the General Zhennan. General Zhennan. Not only that, she has people in the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Justice.
It can be said that one-third of the country's military power is in her hands.
Yan Yu Ni patted her friend's hand soothingly and said softly: "She won't"
"What if?"
Yan Yu Ni stood up, stood in front of the window, and answered her in her heart: There won't be a chance, she won't risk the world's condemnation and become an emperor without any legitimate reason.
What she wants is legitimacy, otherwise she wouldn't spend time with the guy above.
If it weren't for this, she, who stood out among the fifteen princesses, would have already aimed her sword at Jun'an Palace.
Ha, the sword is pointing at Jun'an Palace?
Three years ago you might have been able to, but this is not three years ago.
Now your left arm has fallen off, and although your right arm appears to be fine, it is actually disabled, and you can't fly anymore.
Flocks of birds were flying in the sky, and endless white enveloped patch after patch of darkness.
After a while, she felt a shadow pressing down on her.
She smiled, and together with Yan Pingle, she listened to the birds singing and watched them dancing...
Yan Yu Ni was looking at the scenery and thinking about the feelings, but the other party was thinking about how to let her friend crush the third princess.
Crows, magpies...flocks of birds...black masses, one after another.
Flock of birds?
