The days when I was working in the West Factory

Chapter 170 Stolen

Zhao Yu stood outside Yongshou Palace with hands hanging down. After more than half an hour, a side door of the main hall of Yongshou Palace opened and an acquaintance walked out.

"Responsible Envoy Zhao Zhen, Your Majesty announces your audience..."

Zhao Jingzhong came to the steps outside the door, looking down at Zhao Yu who was standing with his hands down, he couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

On the face of it, he and Zhao Yuming are getting along, but both of them know that they are already endless enemies.

But aside from these, Zhao Jingzhong still couldn't help admiring the guy with eye circles.

A hundred days ago, he was just a small household that he could control at will, but in less than three months, he was already able to stand outside the Yongshou Palace.

He entered the palace as a eunuch since he was a child, and he was lucky. On the way to be divided into kings to wash the house, he met Wei Zhongxian, who had already gained power, and made great progress all the way, and became the position of the supervisor of ceremonies.

But even so, it took him 12 years to walk from entering the palace to outside the Yongshou Palace!
Zhao Yu got up and came to the steps, but he didn't enter the Yongshou Palace immediately, but waited for Zhao Jingzhong to come outside the main hall again, and then reported to the inside of the hall.

After the emperor nodded, the eunuch on duty in the hall would open the door.

When the door of Yongshou Palace was opened, Zhao Yu walked quickly into the hall with his head down and bowed according to what Feng Li Dao had taught him.

"Um?!"

The moment he stepped into the dragon sill, Zhao Yu, who had his head down, frowned suddenly.

Just now, the moment his footsteps fell into Yongshou Palace, Zhao Yu clearly sensed at least three auras covering him!
These three auras gave Zhao Yu a sense of oppression, which was heavier than any master of the rivers and lakes he had encountered before.

Even with his current level of internal energy cultivation, he felt that after entering Yongshou Palace, the flow of energy became stagnant.

After being startled, Zhao Yu calmed down.

At any rate, the person sitting on top is also the Ninth Five-Year Supreme, so how could it be possible that there are not a few masters who have reached the sky to protect him?

What made Zhao Yu a little uneasy was that even if the emperor really wanted to kill him, the things he had prepared before coming here would be very effective under the watchful eyes of such a master.

"Chen, Jinyiwei Beisi Town..."

"no!"

Zhao Yu came ten steps away from the Qingsha dragon tent, pulled up his clothes and bowed down, and was about to shout long live according to Fengli Dao's instruction, but didn't want to be interrupted by the emperor in the dragon tent.

"..."

On the way here, Zhao Yu, who had been reviewing the rules taught by Fengli Dao, felt somewhat aggrieved at the moment.

Before he could say a few words, he was choked back abruptly by the one in the dragon tent.

For a while, Zhao Yu, who was seeing such a big scene for the first time, was somewhat at a loss.

But the emperor in the Dragon Tent had nothing to say except for saying 'Excuse me'.

Standing on the Kowloon steps, Zhao Jingzhong and Feng Lidao, who stood with their hands down on both sides of the green gauze tent, also remained silent.

Except for the occasional crisp sound of copper chimes from the green gauze dragon tent, the entire Yongshou Hall was eerily silent.

The three auras before were still firmly enveloping Zhao Yu's body, which made Zhao Yu feel restless involuntarily.

After about an hour, just when Zhao Yu couldn't help but want to risk his life, there was finally movement from the dragon tent.

"Zhao Yu, do you know why I called you here?"

The emperor in the dragon tent put down the hammer in his hand, picked up a jade ruyi beside him with one hand, raised a corner of the dragon tent, and asked in a calm tone.

"Your Majesty is dull, please express your Majesty..."

While pretending to be his grandson, Zhao Yu cursed in his heart.

You called Lao Tzu here so frankly that you asked me instead?

What's wrong with my brain flooding? !
"I'm here to ask you, but you set up the nine porridge factories outside the capital?"

When the emperor said these words, Feng Lidao standing beside the dragon tent subconsciously gave Zhao Yu a wink.

But at this moment, Zhao Yu lowered his head, unable to see Feng Li Dao's actions at all.

"Return to Your Majesty, it was established by the minister!"

Zhao Yu, whose patience had long been worn out, subconsciously said it.

But after saying the words, Zhao Yu suddenly reacted.

Nine porridge factories have been distributing porridge for more than ten consecutive days, and the grain involved is more than hundreds of thousands of stones?
What is Zhao Yu's purpose or his original intention is actually not important to the emperor.

The important thing is, you, a guy who has been promoted to the Beisi Governor for less than three months, where did you get these things?
Hearing Zhao Yu's answer, Feng Lidao's expression changed, while Zhao Jingzhong, who was standing on the other side, had a gleam of joy on his face.

After all, Zhao Yu was only from a small family like the Prosecutor's Office who had no real power. How could he figure out what the emperor was thinking?

Do good to save the people?

For the emperor, this is of no concern at all.

As an emperor, what he values ​​more is how the current Zhao Yu has amassed so much private wealth!

"Oh?"

The emperor stretched out Yu Ruyi again, raised the dragon tent, looked at Zhao Yu at the foot of the Kowloon steps, and asked again: "You have been promoted to be the governor of Beisi for more than a month, and three generations of your family have been in the inspection department of Jinyiwei. There are no wealthy people, how can they spend so much food and rice to rescue the people?"

"Don't prevaricate me by fooling Liu Jin's stupid servant, An Jianqing can't come up with so much food!"

Before Zhao Yu could speak, the emperor in the dragon tent spoke again.

Hearing the emperor's words, Zhao Yu's heart moved slightly.

Now the whole world says that the emperor is blind, and Wei Zhongxian controls everything.

But from the few simple words just now, it can be seen that this emperor is definitely not the stupid fool in the eyes of everyone.

It is cold outside, but there are countless earth dragons under the Yongshou Palace, and the inside of the palace is as warm as spring.

But at the moment, Feng Li Dao, who was standing on the side, had a burst of cold sweat on his forehead.

The emperor seemed to speak calmly, but he drove Zhao Yu to his death step by step.

"Your Majesty is wise, the nine porridge factories that I have set up outside the capital, the grain and rice needed are all..."

Everyone in the hall pricked up their ears, especially Zhao Jingzhong, who wanted to see how Zhao Yu escaped today!

"Say!!"

Seeing Zhao Yu twitching, the emperor in the dragon tent seemed a little angry, and his tone of speech was much colder than before.

"Yes!"

Zhao Yu nodded, and then his mind moved, his thoughts sank into the system backpack, locked the seven or eight wind and thunder beads, and then he gritted his teeth and said: "Returning to your majesty, those grains and rice were all stolen from the Yuquan granary. Come!"

steal? !

Not to mention Zhao Jingzhong, even the emperor in the dragon tent couldn't react for a moment.

The majestic Beisi Zhenfu envoy actually said something like 'steal' in front of the emperor!

"Hahaha……"

Zhao Yu was ready to die, but he didn't want to hear hearty laughter from the dragon tent after a while.
