Eunuch's Favor: The ever-changing princess flirts with the governor
Chapter 175: Vicious Ning Dugong
After that, everyone looked at the man on the big chair at the same time.
Ning Cuo lazily leaned against the back of the chair, drinking tea with extremely elegant movements. Hearing this, his narrow and charming eyes glanced at him lightly. He raised his red lips and said slowly, "Left Prime Minister, you are worrying too much. When the East Factory does things, we never care about other people's suspicions and misunderstandings!"
The left prime minister's face turned cold when he heard this. "Even if Governor Ning is not afraid of rumors, more than a hundred people died last night. For such a serious case, shouldn't the governor give an explanation?"
Ning Cuo lazily said, "The Left Prime Minister is worrying too much. The East Factory works for the Emperor and never needs to explain to anyone."
Upon hearing this, the Left Prime Minister sneered and said, "What you mean, Governor, is that this is the emperor's order?" No one would believe that!
Ning Cuo drank the fragrant tea slowly and said, "I am following the order of the emperor to exercise the power of the court on his behalf, to manage the internal affairs, and to be in charge of the six ministries of the East Factory. My opinion is naturally the emperor's opinion."
"you….."
Everyone was furious when they heard this and looked at the emperor.
The emperor nodded as he thought the words made sense. After all, it was his personal decree that all court affairs were under the full authority of Ning Cuo. His opinion represented his own opinion, so there was nothing wrong with what he said!
Anyway, these ministers can't push these trivial matters onto him.
Everyone was so angry when they heard this. They really couldn't rely on the emperor at all.
The Left Prime Minister stared at Ning Cuo and said, "This matter involves hundreds of lives. Do you think you can conceal it by pretending to be the emperor's order?"
"That's right, Lord Governor Ning, don't you think you can do whatever you want by waving the emperor's banner?"
Ning Cuo moved the teacup elegantly and curled his lips, "The East Depot is doing things with the special permission of the emperor. They can do whatever they want without asking for permission later!"
"You, this is the Emperor in person..."
"That's right. How dare you say such outrageous and arrogant words in the presence of the emperor today?"
"You are right. In front of the Emperor, Lord Ning cannot be so presumptuous."
"I am here to patrol on behalf of the gods and share your worries. What if I am a little more unbridled?"
"You are so bold, you thief!"
"Hmm~?" Ning Cuo's beautiful eyes swept over, and for a moment, the gloomy atmosphere that seemed to dim even the scorching sun outside instantly enveloped the official who spoke without thinking.
Upon seeing this, Master Xu, who had just spoken, felt his hair stand on end and his whole body went cold. He was horrified and took a step back.
Ning Cuo looked at the strange light in his eyes. He said with a smile on his scarlet lips, "Master Taifu, insulting me is a serious crime~"
Under the man's gaze, Master Xu's whole body stiffened and his face turned pale. He secretly regretted that he had said so much that he blurted out what was in his mind.
Now, I can only look to the emperor for help.
The emperor didn't want to intervene, but the tutor was the teacher of his sons.
He had no choice but to say, "Taifu Xu, you are too careless with your words. Why don't you apologize to the governor quickly?"
Xu Taifu immediately said, "It was an old minister who made a mistake in speaking. Please don't blame me, Governor."
The emperor nodded, "I'm sure you didn't mean to do that!"
Then he looked at Ning Cuo and said, "My dear Lord, please be magnanimous. Don't bother with him!"
Ning Cuo glanced at the other person with his charming eyes, then turned his eyes away, hooked his lower lip and said, "Since the emperor has spoken, I will naturally obey your orders~"
Everyone's faces turned grim when they heard this. They guessed that only the emperor would believe this?
As expected, the emperor smiled and said, "My dear minister, you are magnanimous and sensible. Today's matter will be..."
When everyone saw this, their expressions changed and they hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, what happened last night caused a lot of uproar and the whole city knows about it. If you don't give an explanation, the people of Beijing will be terrified!"
The emperor's face turned unhappy when he heard this. He really hated the trouble caused by all the officials.
All day long, people would bring up the smallest matters and ask him for an explanation.
Not only did it delay his daily secret practice, but the auspicious time for a double day off that he had agreed with the master for today was about to be ruined.
Ning Cuo put down the teacup gracefully and said slowly, "Your Majesty, since you all insist on asking me for an explanation, I will make an exception and give them an explanation, so that they don't continue to make trouble and disturb Your Majesty."
The emperor was moved when he heard this, and thought that Ning Aiqing understood him.
When he turned around and looked at the officials, his expression didn't look very good.
In his opinion, Ning Cuo was helping him, but was forced to not give in by a group of old ministers.
When the people in the hall saw this, their expressions became even more grim.
Ning Cuo, this traitor and flatterer, would spend his days deceiving the emperor into being dissatisfied with them.
Ning Cuo raised his gorgeous eyes and glanced at the officials calmly, "What happened last night was actually the East Factory sent out to capture the fugitive who stole at night."
The left prime minister immediately jumped out and said coldly, "The governor is talking nonsense, right? What kind of fugitives are there? There are hundreds of them?"
"I also think what the governor said is far-fetched. The Dazhao Imperial City is heavily guarded. How could so many thieves suddenly appear?"
"I second the motion. Even if this is a theft, what kind of treasure is it that requires hundreds of people to steal it? Moreover, to steal something, you don't need to kill everyone, right?"
Ning Cuolan curled his lips and said, "It is impossible for a person to appear out of thin air, so I will investigate in detail later. As for what he stole and why I killed them all, Your Majesty should figure it out for yourself!"
As he spoke, a memorial was handed up by a young eunuch.
The emperor unfolded it and took a quick look before angrily saying, "What? They actually dared to steal weapons from the armory camp. What do these people want to do?"
Everyone was shocked when they heard this. Weapons, how is this possible?
The left prime minister frowned and glared, "Weapons?"
No, that's absolutely impossible. The Queen Mother clearly said that it was Ningcuo who killed the eldest princess's men.
The reason was nothing more than the personal grudge between Ning Cuo and the eldest princess, how could it become a weapon?
Ning Cuo said calmly, "Your Majesty, stealing military equipment is a serious crime. The military equipment camp was attacked last night, and thousands of soldiers were lost. This matter is of great importance, and I don't want to make it public..."
"My dear minister, there is no need to say more. I know everything!" The emperor's eyes swept coldly over the officials.
All the officials' faces turned pale.
The emperor snorted coldly, retracted his gaze and looked back at Ning Cuo, "Leave this matter to Minister Ning to investigate thoroughly. I want to know who is so bold as to plot evil and rebel against the emperor!"
Ning Cuo curled his lips, "I obey your order."
The emperor glanced at the officials again, threw the memorial to the ground, and walked away with a cold face and sleeves swung.
Many officials looked uneasy at this moment, and started talking in a chaotic manner for a while.
The Left Prime Minister, the Grand Tutor and others stared at Ning Cuo with gloomy faces.
They would never believe that any weapons were stolen last night. This must have been arranged in advance by the Ning thieves just to deal with them.
The emperor was already dissatisfied with their actions, and now he was even more displeased with them.
What I am most afraid of is that Ning Ze will take advantage of the opportunity to stir up some arms case. If this case is involved, whoever is involved will be in big trouble.
Ning Zei, what a vicious method! !
