C216 Fall!
C216 Fall!
Zhao Wuji was obviously stunned. He immediately stood up and cupped his hands, saying, "Your Majesty foresaw the future. This old official sighed in his heart! That's right, this old official came today for Xiao Yun's matter."
His Majesty was stunned.
It was not because he guessed correctly.
It was because... Zhao Wuji had started to flatter him?!
What was going on? The fifth and third Grand Tutor of the Zhao family had always been one of the most powerful families in the Great Qin Country. He had his own pride and had never lowered his head to His Majesty in this life.
Now, he had actually imitated the other officials and flattered him?
Although the other party's level of flattery was limited, His Majesty could not describe how comfortable it was!
That's right. Now, all the civil and military officials in the court felt that the Emperor wanted to get rid of Zhao Wuji.
But could he really do that? It did not seem possible!
In terms of rights, there were too many complicated relationships.
If His Majesty made a move, it would mean that the other party really didn't have much power left.
"Forget it. Then tell me, what's wrong with this Xiao Yun?"
Imperial Tutor Zhao did not speak immediately. Instead, he carefully took out a manual from his bosom and spread it out to the eunuch.
The eunuch immediately handed it over to His Majesty.
The moment His Majesty took a look, he immediately frowned.
When he saw the end, he immediately stood up and said in shock, "There really are so many? "
"This is still the old official's initial estimation. If it were those that were sent abroad, they would accumulate more."
"More? !"
His Majesty's eyes twitched violently.
This booklet showed the amount of money Xiao Yun had amassed from Great Qin Country during this period of time.
What was written on it was an astronomical number that His Majesty did not even dare to imagine.
After careful calculation, it seemed that the total tax collected over the past ten years was not as much as this sum of money.
Previously, he thought that Xiao Yun was at most wealthy enough to rival an entire country. How could he have imagined that the wealth that Xiao Yun possessed now was already much more than that of a country!
Now, he finally understood why Xiao Yun was unwilling to hand over the gold bills.
Who would have so much money to be willing to go to diplomacy?
But at the same time, he thought of another sentence.
Xiao Yun said that if the money was in the hands of others, no one else would be able to control it.
Because even now, His Majesty did not know what was going on with this gold coin. How could it suddenly replace the copper coin in the Great Qin Country?
Without understanding this, the gold coin could only be placed in Xiao Yun's hands. No one could touch it!
Letting out a long sigh, His Majesty put down the small booklet. His hands were actually trembling a little.
After a long time, he asked in a deep voice, "Beloved Minister Zhao, what do you mean by giving this thing to Zhen and letting Zhen see it?"
"This..."
Zhao Wuji was stunned for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, this child has amassed so much wealth. He did not hand it over to the Imperial Court, but is in his own hands. This child has ulterior motives!"
"I understand."
His majesty said very calmly.
Zhao Wuji was shocked and coughed violently. He wanted to say something but the king said first, "Beloved Zhao is ill. You should go back and rest early. If you are late... It will be worse if you expose yourself more. It will be bad for your condition. "
Zhao Wuji could not say anything else. He sighed and left the palace.
His Majesty narrowed his eyes and looked at the pamphlet on the table. He originally wanted to lie on the bed and rest for a while, but he found that he could not sleep at all.
He sat up and waved his hand and said, "Find that brat for me!"
The eunuch laughed bitterly. Xiao Yun had just been released a few days ago, and now he was going to enter the Palace again.
Very quickly, Xiao Yun was pulled up from the bed by a few Imperial Guards.
He was muddle-headed and confused. He kept twisting his body and shouting, "I am innocent. Help! Help!"
It made the Imperial Guards feel like they were robbers.
The person who was sent this time was naturally arranged by the eunuch, and the one leading the group was Leng Feng.
He could be considered an acquaintance of Xiao Yun.
At this moment, Leng Feng's face was filled with black lines. He knew that this was Xiao Yun's doing.
Sure enough, Xiao Yun broke free from the Imperial Guards's grip in the next moment. He walked to the side and picked up a teapot on the table.
"The teapot from eight hundred years ago was made by the famous Grandmaster Pei. There are only two of them that have been passed down in the world. One of them is in the treasure vault of the Sun Moon Country's king, and the other one is here."
Everyone looked over and saw that the teapot was indeed simple and exquisite. Previously, they knew that this was a good item, but who would have thought that it would be such a high grade item? They all moved over and wanted to take a closer look.
Although they had never heard of any famous teapot maker from eight hundred years ago.
But at this moment...
Pah!
Xiao Yun threw the teapot onto the ground and watched helplessly as it shattered into pieces.
He then said, "In the end, the Imperial Guards barged into my room and knocked it to the ground. It broke into pieces. A teapot that had been there for eight hundred years had been through countless battles and crises. It didn't break, but here, it was broken by your mistake... Sigh, what a pity."
Everyone was instantly stunned.
One of them hadn't completely recovered from the shock of the teapot shattering. He said in a daze, "But we didn't touch it. You fell it yourself..."
Xiao Yun didn't pay attention to him. Instead, he walked to a corner of the room and took down a vase.
While holding it in his hand, he said: "A bottle of hundreds of thousands of flowers is not as good as a bottle, the world in the bottle is not as good as a kiln. He was talking about this Cloud kiln vase, the place where he found an extremely precious clay vase. After spending thirty years of painstaking research and development by the most outstanding craftsman in the past, he finally managed to make twelve bottles of Mountain River, Mountain River, and River. And if he wanted to make more, he would never be able to find any clay. There was actually no more clay under the heavens! That was why there was a rumor that it was the soil formed by the falling stars in the sky. There was only that much under the heavens. And this was 1300 years ago. Each of the 12 bottles is worth a fortune. Unless one was rich or powerful, one could not obtain them. Only those with great fortune could obtain them. After hundreds and thousands of years of exile, there was only one bottle left of the twelve bottles. Before, I was prepared to offer it to His Majesty if I made a big mistake. After all, such a precious thing could be considered an auspicious omen, but unfortunately... the Imperial Guards suddenly rushed into my room and accidentally broke it. "
When he said "what a pity," everyone felt that something was wrong.
When he finished speaking, one of the Imperial Guards pounced on the bottle, wanting to save it.
But... in the end, he was still a step too late.
Bang!
The bottle fell to the ground and shattered into dozens of pieces!
"You... What are you doing? "
Leng Feng realized something and broke out in cold sweat.
He started to question loudly.
Xiao Yun still did not answer. Instead, he slowly walked to the side and picked up a box on the cabinet. He opened the box and found an ancient book inside.
"No!"
This time, it was not only Leng Feng.
This group of experienced and knowledgeable Imperial Guards also knew what Xiao Yun wanted to do. All of them rushed forward.
However, they didn't forcefully grab Xiao Yun, but...
With a puff, they fell to their knees.
"Young Master Xiao, Young Master Xiao! If you are magnanimous, please forgive us! We are also following orders! "
The group of people began to cry and beg.
Xiao Yun curled his lips and said, "Now you know your mistake? It seems a little late."
"It's neither late nor late. Please be magnanimous, Young Master Xiao!"
Another Imperial Guards said, "Young Master Xiao, we didn't offend you either."
"We didn't offend you?"
The corner of Xiao Yun's eyes twitched and he said, "It's late at night. How did you come in? Breaking in! This scared the whole family of Xiao family. They thought they had been robbed! Besides, you are the Imperial Guards. You are riding with torches in your hands. Who doesn't know what you are doing? What will the rest of you think when you rush into my house? Although my family's old man no longer has an official position, he still has face, right? How can I allow you to trample on him like this? "
