Chapter 4259

During the period of Zhenzong, King Qi once fought with Emperor Zhao Tianyin of Taigan to fight for the existence of the throne.

Although he was defeated in the end, King Qi still had a strong presence in the Zhao family.

Especially when Prince Su died, the Zhao family's power was greatly weakened.

At this time, targeting a prince of the same family, the prince is extremely repulsive in his heart, not to mention that Lu Yu and the prince already have a grudge, and Zhao Yuanyan can't possibly murder his own relatives for Lu Yu.

"Bengong knows what you are thinking. When Lu Yu was in the imperial capital, he was extremely arrogant and arrogant. It must be known that Mu Xiu will be destroyed by Lin Feng, and he will have this catastrophe sooner or later. How many geniuses have died in this heaven, why? Associating his death with King Qi? This matter will be decided again!"

The prince showed no mercy, and directly pierced the minds of everyone present.

However, all the ministers were unmoved.

"This is not a family matter for His Highness, but a state matter!"

The Minister of the Household suddenly stood up, holding a memorial in his hand.

He was a middle-aged man in his forties, with a thin build, eyebrows like swords, and piercing eyes.

The eunuch next to him quickly picked up Zao Shu and sent it to the prince.

"Since the 387th year of the celestial calendar, the tax revenue of Dongsheng Xinghe has dropped sharply, and the expenditures of the Fifth Army House have increased greatly. The Ministry of Household has found out that King Qi raised the star thieves and supported Fang Wai. Sectarians, looting merchant ships. At the same time, they falsely reported the strength of the army and obtained empty wages. Nearly 70% of the dynasty’s tax revenue fell into the pockets of Qi Wangfu through various channels.”

The Minister of Accounts said loudly: "Please also ask Your Highness to investigate!"

The prince's expression changed, and he glanced at Zou Shu, which displayed detailed numbers.

He believed that the Minister of Household did not dare to deceive him, which must be an unmistakable and ironclad proof.

But what really shocked the prince was not the memorial of King Qi, but the person who came out in front of him, who was already at the level of the Six Books.

The power of the aristocratic family has been silent in the ground.

At this moment, this force suddenly burst out, making him feel a shock.

"Even if it is irrefutable evidence, it is necessary to send someone to slowly investigate the ins and outs before convicting." The prince said solemnly.

"Zhao Tong has committed a lot of crimes, and his subordinates are not honest, committing numerous crimes. The minister has ordered that King Qi's mansion in the imperial capital be sealed up, and the 280 officials and servants of the mansion are wanted and put in jail, waiting for The results of the interrogation will be revealed to the world."

Wei Dong, the minister of Dali Temple, came out and said loudly.

The prince was furious: "Without the order of this palace, who gave you the courage to seal up the prince's mansion!"

Wei Dong raised his head and looked directly at the prince, without fear: "The prince breaks the law, and he must also commit the same crime as the common people. The minister does things, no matter what his identity is."

Wei Dong is from the Wei family.

No matter who was present, it was clear that this was what the Wei family came to target King Qi.

The prince gritted his teeth and said, "King Qi is the emperor's uncle of Bengong. Even if he investigates, he should let Long Wei go and investigate. You guys are acting on your behalf, and let people go to Bengong!"

Among the civil and military officials, Cang Xuan, the envoy of the Jinyi Longwei North Town, came out and said: "Your Highness, according to the report of the Jinyi Longwei who fled back from the Chang'an ruins, King Qi does have a conspiracy intention. You might as well let the Dali Temple investigate first, and then Send them to jail, and we'll let these people speak."

Even Jinyi Longwei began to target King Qi.

The Prince's breathing suddenly became a little heavy.

The prince would never have expected that for the sake of a dead Lu Yu, the aristocratic family would use such a huge force, and even dared to openly challenge him.

He suddenly had a feeling.

What I have spied on is just the tip of the iceberg of these top families.
