Besides, Jiang Qiubai got Helang's plan and started to deploy.

The next day, he specially brought generous gifts to Yue's mansion, and with his three-inch tongue, he started deceiving, pretending to cooperate with him in corruption.

Jiang Qiubai's attitude was sincere, his eyes filled with awe of his seniors, and he cupped his hands respectfully: "Brother Wu, at that time, the ten thousand taels of silver will be at your disposal, and we will split half of it when the younger brother returns."

Yue Gaoyang has always regarded him as a junior with no background, and has never seen him have any other abilities, so his defenses against him are extremely low. Seeing his attitude of wanting to cling to him now is even more heart-wrenching. With so many twists and turns in my heart, I hesitated again and again, and made up my mind.

If he agrees, then he can still trick him and only give him 20% of it. If he doesn't agree, he won't even give him the 20% of it. Could it be that he can still bring someone to the house to search? Forgive him for not daring to reveal any rumors, after all, they are now grasshoppers on the same rope, and they will be destroyed once they are destroyed.

The two touched their wine glasses, looked at each other and smiled, as if they had made a tacit agreement.

Jiang Qiubai raised his glass and drank it slowly, covering the sparkle in his eyes.

To be honest, he never thought that he could successfully persuade him so easily. Before he came, he even thought that his thoughts had been seen through, and thus he was completely guarded against. It seems that he still underestimated Yue Gaoyang's self-righteousness and arrogance.

When the funds for disaster relief came out of the treasury, Jiang Qiubai faked the illusion that the disaster relief was successful, and the lower-level governors were forced to write official documents, so Yue Gaoyang was relieved to secretly move a large amount of silver into his mansion.

When Helang went to court with Zhen Puyang, he asked him his opinion on disaster relief for a while, and seeing that the time was right, he told him about his plan with Jiang Qiubai that day.

It's just that Zhen Puyang didn't make any troubles about such a big event, and after he knew about it, he let go of it, but he had a lot of prejudice against Jiang Qiubai.

Helang asked speculatively, "Do you not trust Jiang Shangshu?"

Zhen Puyang shook his head, and walked into the hall gracefully, "I don't trust anyone, but I trust Mr.." That's why he let go of everything and handed over the ownership to him. As long as what he does is right.

After routinely reporting the people's livelihood and military affairs across the country, the emperor saw Zhen Puyang and asked him how the disaster relief was going.

All eyes were on the young prince, and Helang glanced slightly sideways.

Zhen Puyang twitched the corners of his mouth indiscriminately, took a step forward, his eyes were full of sincerity, and he rarely showed a serious expression, pretending to be difficult, "I tell my father, although officials at all levels have reported that the disaster relief has been completed, but this is the first time for my son Taking over the political affairs, I still couldn't let go of my heart, so I took the time to go to Jinnan, and after several inquiries, I found that many people have not received relief."

"There is such a thing?" The emperor frowned, and many speculations flashed in his mind. It was not that this kind of thing did not happen when he was in power. In order to protect the future, he had no choice but to go along with it and make false official documents to report.

And it was true that someone informed the prince to go out of the city. He thought they were going out to play, so he turned a blind eye. He didn't expect that he was going out to inspect. The emperor raised his beard, with a hint of relief in his heavy heart.

The people below watched their words and expressions, panicked and happy.

Zhen Puyang didn't say any more, stepped back, and stood beside Helang without hesitation, seeing that he was just and quiet when he came up to court, he deliberately scratched his palm.

He pesters his husband every day, and if he has time to go to the disaster area, it's a good thing to see that his father believed it.

The ten thousand taels of silver stayed in the Yue Mansion well, but there was nothing unusual about the disaster relief official documents, anyone in the know could see the tricks in it.

"Master of the Household Department, I remember correctly that the amount of the appropriation is ten thousand taels of silver, right? Why do the people say that they have not received the relief? Give me an explanation." The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly.

Yue Gaoyang, who was named, was startled suddenly, but he tried to calm down, "There are so many people suffering this time, and only ten thousand taels may not be enough for relief, so His Royal Highness has the opportunity to meet people who have not received relief."

Zhen Puyang immediately snorted and laughed, "It's a decent appearance."

The emperor glanced at him, unable to tell whether he was lying, so he deliberately slapped his chair and shouted angrily: "I think you are not greedy enough!"

"Your Majesty! This, this?!"

Longyan was furious, Yue Gaoyang's legs softened, and he muttered incoherently for a while.

This scare was all a guilty conscience, and the emperor was even more furious.

Yue Gaoyang was sweating profusely on his forehead, he quickly looked at Jiang Qiubai next to him, hoping that the people on the same boat would help him for their common benefit.

But in the end, he was not panicked, but calm and composed, as if it had nothing to do with him. And the people who usually have a good relationship with him turn a blind eye to it, and no one wants to be the first bird at this time, and get dirty because of him alone.

Only now did Yue Gaoyang completely lose his balance, and his thoughts pinned on others also disappeared.

"Your Majesty's lesson!"

The emperor was disturbed by his begging for mercy, and immediately sent someone to his house, and as expected, a huge sum of money was seized. Now that the evidence is convincing, there is no need to make any judgments. The emperor smashed the things on the desk at random, and with the loud noise, he said angrily: "The ten thousand taels of silver was found from your house. Without your permission, this huge wealth How to transfer into your house!"

"Jiang Qiubai...Jiang Qiubai! He is the mastermind behind the scenes!" Yue Gaoyang's eyes widened, and he told the whole truth, even if he died, he would drag him into the water.

The emotions of the people around gradually became subtle, and Jiang Qiubai frowned slightly.

"It's a bunch of nonsense! It was discovered and tried to slander!" Zhen Puyang came out under the urging of Helang, and cursed impatiently.

Helang followed suit, "When Shangshu Jiang learned about this, he had no choice but to move out the gold and silver from his house to help the people."

Jiang Qiubai bent down at the right time, with guilt all over his face, "I am incompetent, the task entrusted to me by the emperor has not been completed, and I dare not speak up, and I am afraid that if it is delayed for another day, the people will suffer more, so I have to make up for it myself."

The emperor nodded with a livid face, executed Yue Gaoyang, commended Jiang Qiubai, and handed over the follow-up work of disaster relief to Zhen Puyang.

When Yue Gaoyang came to power, the few officials he supported had no reliance, and they would naturally restrain themselves, not daring to rashly side with the prince, lest they be targeted by other princes' factions.

As soon as he came to court, Zhen Puyang was summoned by Concubine Lin. He was embarrassed to leave a sentence that he would go early and return early, and then ran to the harem.

Looking at his much taller back, Helang suddenly realized that his highness had already turned sixteen, and he seemed to be a handsome man who could stand on his own.

As soon as Zhen Puyang entered the palace of his mother and concubine, he heard the gentle laughter of the maidservants, as well as discussions about the daughters of other families, and the concubine did not stop him.

He frowned, vaguely feeling something was wrong.

Sure enough, after a few pleasantries, Concubine Lin asked straight to the point: "Do you have a daughter you like?"

"Mother and concubine, don't tell me this. You know, my son doesn't like to be in contact with annoying women." Zhen Puyang showed impatience.

"Look at you, how do you talk. The concubine mother is also a woman, do you still think the concubine is annoying?" Concubine Lin frowned, then reached out and patted his shoulder with a soft tone, "Yang'er will understand later , it is a great thing to have someone who is close to you accompany and serve you."

"Well—" Zhen Puyang played with the teacup with exquisite patterns on the table, and responded casually.

He rolled his eyes, thinking about how to prevaricate his mother and concubine, and then thought that he was not here, would the husband return home without waiting for him

"Don't be so indifferent, what kind of woman does Yang'er like? Concubine Mother will look for you." Concubine Lin smiled and was very concerned about this matter. She held a stack of rosters in her hand, and there were portraits of women in it. Beautiful or pure, you name it.

Under the strong request of his mother and concubine, Zhen Puyang changed his previous attitude and said a lot, "Be gentle, knowledgeable, know how to cook, and cover blankets for your ministers—"

Concubine Lin still had a smile on her face when she heard the front, and only thought about which ladies met his requirements, but when she heard the back, she felt something was wrong.

"Why do you say that? Concubine Mu sees that Yang'er must have a sweetheart." Concubine Lin's tone was affirmative.

Sweetheart? Zhen Puyang kept silent, remembering what he said carelessly just now, his heart became hot, and he denied it.

Seeing that he had no intention of continuing this topic, Concubine Lin smiled and broke the topic, "Okay, okay, our Yang'er is still young, so don't talk about it."

She only thought that he was shy, or immature, and didn't want to get married so soon, and was restrained.

She has always doted on her child, so she just let him be. Even so, she would not let her son be alone, and she already had a candidate in her mind, and she was ready to take a concubine for him.

Concubine Lin took a sip of her tea lightly, maintaining her motherly attitude. By the way, he asked someone to inquire whether his son had contact with any lady, and if the son's sweetheart was a noble lady, that would be fine.

If it is of low status, it is fine to be a concubine, as long as his son likes it.

Helang waited for a long time, but wanted to go back to rest, but he was afraid that His Royal Highness would be angry the next day, so he waited patiently under the tree in his palace.

While breaking off a flower branch and inserting it into the porcelain vase, he was thinking about why Concubine Lin called His Highness down.

Hearing from the servants that Concubine Lin has been meeting the daughters of various families recently, he seemed to be looking for someone, and he suddenly realized that His Highness is already sixteen years old, which is the right age for marriage.

His Highness, who has always been unruly, will definitely not compromise so obediently. Moreover, His Highness seldom has contact with women. How can a woman get into his eyes

Holding the porcelain vase in his arms, Helang looked at it, wishing the child in his heart that he could find a lover, after all, this palace looks prosperous but lonely, it is better to have a warm-hearted person to accompany him.

However, if you can't find it, then choose a gentle, virtuous, high-ranking woman, I believe it will be of great help to his road to becoming an emperor.

He had just inserted a vase of plum blossoms when Zhen Puyang came back.

"Why don't you chat with Concubine Lin for a while longer?"

Zhen Puyang knocked down the flower branch, "It's very boring, I always talk about those women's things..."

His Highness's words confirmed his guess just now.

Helang, "Your Highness grows up, and these are all things that you will encounter."

"What can I do when I grow up?" Can the Tai Tuo belong to him alone? Can you drive away the annoying Pu Ren

"You can do a lot... such as taking charge of state affairs, becoming the most honorable person, and ruling the world."

"But these Yang'er don't want it."

"Your Highness... what do you want?"

Zhen Puyang didn't speak, and dragged him to eat, only quietly filling in an answer in his heart.

Just want you, that's all.
