Chapter 1045 Destruction
Zhou Shuren withdrew his gaze. Master Xiao was not here today. He left behind on behalf of the household department. Just now he was watching Yao Wenqi, and there was only Li Zhao left beside him, "My uncle's grandson has already arrived in the capital. When will you bring him to the capital?" Take a look."
Li Zhao stroked his beard. The Ministry of War has been a little busy recently, "I'll write to you in a few days."
Zhou Shuren raised his eyebrows, thinking of the soldiers who had been guarding Zhang's mansion, nodded and said, "Okay."
Li Zhao asked, "Is it true that the household department can't move the money?"
Thinking of Yang Wen, Zhou Shuren endured it, "I really can't move it out."
Li Zhao pursed his lips, "In my heart, you are the incarnation of the God of Wealth."
Zhou Shuren, "...I also thank you for your evaluation?"
Li Zhao really thought so in his heart. Since Zhou Shuren entered the household department, although the household department still picks up the money, the money that should be given is very happy. Unlike before, the household department really has no money, and the money that should be divided several times. Patting Zhou Shuren on the shoulder, "You have to think about it."
Zhou Shuren was speechless, "When the mission comes back from selling the ship, there will be money."
Li Zhao rolled his eyes, "Whether you can sell it or not, even if it is sold, it will take a few months to come back."
Zhou Shuren let out a heck, not waiting for Li Zhao to walk quickly.
In the government hall, the emperor ignored Yao Wenqi, who was kneeling, and read the booklets one by one. The hall was very quiet, and time passed by little by little.
Yao Wenqi knelt motionless, with his head lowered. He still hadn't had a good rest for several days. He stood on the high platform and watched the fire that soared into the sky. Like his skin, he cannot sleep peacefully every day.
"During the founding of the previous dynasty, your ancestors were soldiers under the Rong family's account."
Yao Wenqi's heartstrings were tense, "Yes, my ancestor was the guard in front of General Rong's tent back then."
The booklet in the emperor's hand was not put down, "Your ancestors have accumulated for several generations to have the Yao family today. No, it should be the Yao family that flourished at the end of the previous dynasty. The Rong family declined, and the Yao family held military power. What a sight."
Yao Wenqi's back was already drenched, and the sweat on his forehead slipped into his eyes. His eyes felt uncomfortable, but he didn't dare to wipe them off. "The city gate opened by the Yao clan."
The emperor naturally remembered that when the army surrounded the capital and was about to attack the city, the Yao family surrendered and opened the gate of the capital. At that time, the capital was already in chaos and many people died, but they were not killed by the army he led. In the capital city, your Yao family dominates."
Yao Wenqi bent his back again,
"Your Majesty, the Yao Clan is loyal to the Emperor that day, and the Yao Clan is only loyal to the Emperor."
The emperor loyally put down the booklet in his hand, stared at Yao Wenqi, and chuckled, "I remember, I always remember, but your father only said allegiance but didn't swear, how about it, do you want to swear?"
Yao Wenqi raised his head, "Your Majesty, I am willing to swear."
"Okay, send it, I'm listening."
Yao Wenqi twitched in his heart, and raised his finger, "I swear, if you betray the emperor, the Yao clan will suffer a terrible death and never recover."
The emperor sneered, "I reluctantly agree, that's fine, you can go back too."
Yao Wenqi was in a panic, and dragged his numb legs out of the government hall with difficulty.
After Yao Wenqi left, the emperor called for Eunuch Liu, "It's time to move."
Eunuch Liu lowered his head, "Yes."
The next day, more soldiers entered Zhang's original mansion, and the soldiers outside surrounded the mansion more tightly, so they couldn't see what was going on inside the mansion.
Another two days later, when people were lying, a murder case occurred, and the whole family was wiped out, leaving more than 30 people without survivors.
When Zhulan heard the news, she was stunned for a long time, "A branch of the Yao clan?"
Boss Zhou’s hands were shaking. He happened to be passing by today. Only when he saw officers and soldiers surrounding him did he realize that more than 30 people had died. This was just the master. Many housekeepers and other people who were in charge also died. Only those who survived were young Little girls and servants.
It was the first time he met someone who dared to destroy the family in the capital, and now his hands and feet are all numb, "Mother, I'm so scared, this is the capital."
Zhulan was not frightened, but thought a lot. The surname alone is enough. Members of the Yao clan, her first reaction was to be in the palace. She remembered that Shuren said when he came back that the emperor summoned Yao Wenqi.
Zhulan comforted the eldest son, "Don't be afraid, there are people in our house who are rewarded by the emperor, you go and tell the steward now, except for necessary purchases, everyone in the house should not leave the house easily."
Boss Zhou stared blankly at Mother, who reacted so calmly that she couldn't help but pinch herself, "Yes, Mother, I'll go right away."
Zhulan thought to herself, the emperor has made a move against the Yao clan, in the emperor's heart, the Yao clan should belong to the Zhujiu clan, beheaded in advance, but there is no psychological burden, bah, the emperor will not have any psychological burden, let alone the emperor In his eyes, the Yao clan is a criminal clan.
In the household department, Zhou Shuren was stunned when he heard the news. What did the emperor find out, and he attacked so ruthlessly.
The news spread quickly, and everyone in the capital soon knew about it.
Liang Wang originally wanted to go to Yao Wenqi to ask about the Rong family, only then did he know that the Yao family and the Rong family had some connections. Unexpectedly, the Yao family had a family extermination case.
Princess Liang frowned, "My lord, who do you think did it?"
Liang Wang pondered, "It won't be Qi Wang and others, especially now when it is obvious that something big is going to happen, none of us dare to move."
Concubine Liang's heart tightened, she thought for a while, "Who could it be?"
King Liang's heart trembled, "Could it be Father?"
His father tormented Yao Wenqi, he knew his father, and his father must have hated Yao Wenqi very much in his heart. Fortunately, he never went to see Yao Wenqi.
When King Qi heard the news, he rode to Chen's mansion.
Mr. Chen has asked for leave for the past few days. He was playing with birds, and he turned his head, "Your Highness is here."
King Qi pulled the chair over, "Grandpa, do you know much about the Yao clan?"
Mr. Chen turned his head, "Not much."
"Grandpa thinks who did it?"
Mr. Chen put down the birdcage in his hand, "Didn't you already count it?"
King Qi was silent, and he really knew it, "Why? Didn't the father already gather the military power of the Yaohou Mansion?"
He watched as his father devoured the military power of the Yao clan bit by bit, and disintegrated the power of the Yaohou Mansion. Now the Yaohou Mansion is a toothless tiger, and Yao Shizi has become a cat in the hands of the Emperor Father. Why did the emperor attack the Yao family?
Old Master Chen sighed, "You should understand that everything your father does has a purpose."
King Qi looked at Grandpa, he actually had a suspicion in his heart, there had always been a power, he had checked, but he couldn't find out, now he understands a little bit.
Mr. Chen continued to tease the bird, "You, forget it."
"What does Grandpa want to say?"
Mr. Chen, "Nothing."
Early the next morning, notices were posted in the capital, and the capital was sealed off.
Ninghou Mansion sent a housekeeper over, "Our Lord Hou said, try not to go out and keep the gate of the mansion safe."
Zhulan motioned for the butler to send them out, and called the boss, "The children are going to the academy today, so send a skilled boy to guard the gate of the house and check the courtyard wall."
Boss Zhou looked at Mother's serious expression, and his palms were sweating, "Mother, I'll arrange it right away."
