Chapter 522

: Big news is coming one after another!

Of course, this matter will not end here, the real fermentation is the beginning...

Lan Mo soon learned that at this time, the Marquis of Huaiyin, Shen Yuanchong, entered the palace to meet the saint, but Emperor Zhao did not see him.

Shen Yuanchong knelt outside the Chui Gong Hall, blaming himself as an imperial examination supervisor for lax supervision, which led to a major fraud case, and it was hard to escape the blame...

Please resign and take up political positions.

Even so, there was still no word from Chui Gong Hall. Later, Shen Yuanchong was willing to donate 300,000 gold coins to support the imperial court's ongoing policy of teaching war and defense as military expenses!

At this time, Emperor Zhao’s oral edict came from Chui Gong Hall, and there was only one word!

"allow!"

At this point, the Marquis of Huaiyin no longer held any position in the court and became a white man!

He only has one identity left, the noble Marquis of Huaiyin!

As a second-grade political advisor, he holds great power, but he resigned and donated three hundred thousand gold coins in exchange for the favor!

No matter how you look at this matter, it all reveals something strange.

There was a major case of fraud in the imperial examination, but it was discovered when the examination started. This was not a crime at all and had nothing to do with poor supervision!

Even if there is a need to hold people accountable, it will be the chief officer Wang Kang who takes the first step.

As for the donation of 300,000 gold coins, it is even more difficult to understand. This is not a small sum!

Is Shen Yuanchong stupid?

Of course he's not stupid!

On the contrary, he knew very well that this was the only way to stop Emperor Zhao!

Because his handle has been lost,

Do it as a last resort,

This is politics!

This is the price of losing!

As for the three hundred thousand gold coins, they were used to buy lives. Whose life to buy, of course, was his son's life!

This is an exchange...

This incident soon caused an uproar within the court.

The Marquis of Huaiyin, Shen Yuanchong, lost his official position, which meant that he no longer had any authority to interfere in court affairs!

This loss is too great!

There is no doubt that this is a huge blow to the established nobles, and it is also a rare victory!

And people are paying more attention to another person, the Earl of Fuyang, Wang Kang!

Because the main person who caused this situation is him!

Just like the previous Yuezhi incident, it was another perfect cooperation between the monarch and his ministers!

Awesome, really awesome!

He is the first person to make Marquis Huaiyin suffer such a big loss...

And they even heard that there was a list in Wang Kang’s hands,

Known as the death list!

All the officials involved in this case were arrested according to that list...

After knowing the news, Lan Mo felt his body was paralyzed, unable to exert any strength.

The matter has been completely exposed,

Even the Marquis of Huaiyin voluntarily resigned and donated money, too busy to take care of himself, so what should they do?

It won’t take long for that list to spread throughout the city. The impact is too great...

And his son is still detained somewhere...

Wang Kang, it’s all this damn Wang Kang,

All nobles like Lan Mo are desperate to control themselves at this moment...

August 13th,

This day is destined to be no ordinary day, and on this occasion,

Xia Qi, the king of Yue, formally notified the State of Zhao that the previously signed peace treaty was completely null and void, the two countries had returned to hostility, and that they would use troops against the State of Zhao in the near future!

The previous Yuezhi incident finally had a response at this moment.

As expected, the State of Yue officially declared war on the State of Zhao!

This news spread, and the major fraud case was quickly suppressed!

After all, war is like nothing else!

There has always been discord between Yue and Zhao, and they have been fighting for years, but both sides still have their own wins and losses.

But as time went by, the old Emperor Zhao was so happy with his achievements that he failed to govern the country well, wasting the country's power, and the old nobles inside did not do anything...

Three years ago, after the crown prince forced a coup, the Yue State took the opportunity to launch an attack. In that battle, Zhao State's last fig leaf was torn off.

Several states were taken over by Yue, and the newly succeeded Emperor Zhao had no choice but to sign an indemnity treaty, and there was peace for three years.

But now war breaks out again!

Who can be calm in the real face of it? Everyone knows how powerful Yue is.

Because of this, Wang Kang was once again pushed to the forefront...

If it weren't for his attitude towards Yue Shi, how could it have led to such a result?

The people attributed all the reasons to him!

One major event happened one after another, and all the storm points were concentrated on Wang Kang.

But at this moment, he seemed to be fine, sitting comfortably on the chair, grabbing the fruit on the plate next to him, and eating it happily.

"This is from tè gōng, it's just delicious,"

Wang Kang muttered from time to time, "Your Majesty, let's talk about it. Can you let me take some home and give my wife a taste?"

Eunuch Hai, who was watching from the side, was really frightened. There were so many officials who came to see His Majesty in the Chui Gong Hall. Even the Right Prime Minister, Gong Sun Bo, did not dare to be so casual.

But this one seems to have returned to his own home,

Doesn't he have any respect at all?

"Mr. Wang, why don't you put your legs down?"

He finally couldn't stop talking. Wang Kang had his legs crossed. It was really indecent.

But Wang Kang didn't have any self-consciousness, and said again: "Is it possible? You can't be so stingy, right?"

Jiang Chengli couldn't help laughing after seeing this, he shook his head and said: "Give him all those precious fruits."

"Your Majesty, this is..."

Eunuch Hai knows that this kind of precious fruit comes from the south and is quite rare. Your Majesty has not eaten any of it...

"That's it, you go down,"

Jiang Chengli waved his hand, then stood up and came to Wang Kang, and asked strangely: "There may have been some disturbance outside. Not long ago, someone came to report and started resisting you. Are you not afraid at all?"

Wang Kang said casually: "You are not afraid, so what should I be afraid of?"

Jiang Chengli was stunned for a moment. It seemed that he was not afraid of anything. Even when facing him, he was so casual. He was the first person.

"The State of Yue is indeed going to use troops against our State of Zhao. What do you think?"

"Not so fast,"

Wang Kang said: "The main strategy of the Yue Kingdom should be nomadism in the north. Obviously, nomadism in the north poses a greater threat to them than to us."

"So even if they send troops, they won't be all the main force. I'm afraid they are just venting their anger,"

"you……"

Jiang Chengli looked at Wang Kang in surprise. He actually understood the current situation so clearly.

He had sent countless investigators to investigate the intelligence. After analysis, he came to this conclusion, and Wang Kang actually hit the nail on the head.

Of course he wouldn't know. Wang Kang directly interpreted Lan Yulin, so of course he knew...

After the shock, he continued: "Even so, given our current situation, we are still struggling to cope. The national treasury is empty, and there is a big gap in military expenditure alone."

"Didn't you just defraud Shen Yuanchong of three hundred thousand?"

"What does it mean to cheat someone out of 300,000 yuan?"

Jiang Chengli said helplessly: "These words are too indecent,"

Still pretending, I thought I might be happy, these people are really hypocritical,
Chapter completed!
