Reborn to marry the emperor, I just want to confuse the emperor and seize the throne

After Zhao Yuntong left, Jiang Fenghua asked someone to find Hongxiu. Since Minister Zhao is not clean, and the Su family is not clean either, and they are all important officials, do you have some kind of connection? Because all the money embezzled by the Su family came from the Minister of Revenue.

Hongxiu and Lianye came together, and Jiang Fenghua asked Lianye to guard outside. Except for Wuxin, they were her real confidants in the whole palace.

"Every time I come to report to the Crown Princess, you never like to ask how much money you have." Hong Xiu was puzzled, with a smile on her face, and teased, "Usually you reward the servants a lot, this money is strange, it's obviously all spent, and in the end we can always earn more, even the money likes the Crown Princess."

Jiang Fenghua didn't smile at her, his tone became serious: "It's time to use the money, let's do the math!"

Hongxiu saw her eyebrows slightly wrinkled, "Did Miss Lin Yu encounter any difficulties? She rushed into the palace."

"No," she had already told Lin Yu that she was the only one who knew these things. She didn't want Hongxiu and Lianye to be like Lin Yu, with their hearts filled with hatred. She would solve this matter personally.

Hong Xiu continued, "We have several properties and shops in Beijing, as well as businesses in Yucheng. Over the years, we have properties and shops everywhere..."

"How much cash do you have?" What she needed now was money. Hongxiu was in charge of all her finances. Now she had to carefully calculate how much property she had and kill Su Xuan at all costs. Her grandfather's family had been escorts for generations and they knew many people in both the white and black worlds. In those ten years, she also knew a lot about the underworld through these relationships. The gold-thread soft armor on Su Xuan's body was not easily obtained and was worth a lot of money. Even money could not buy it.

Hongxiu leaned close to her ear and whispered a number. Jiang Fenghua was shocked when she heard it. "Do I already have so much money?"

Hongxiu nodded and said, "It is no exaggeration to say that it is no problem to buy another Yucheng with cash alone. If the Crown Princess needs money, I will ask people to go to various banks to withdraw it. We also have..." Young Master Ruan was already one of the richest people in the Zhou Dynasty. It was a pity that everyone thought that such a wealthy man had the surname Ruan and was a man.

"That's enough, it's exceeded. Excluding what I need, keep the rest of the money!" Jiang Fenghua nodded, "I've asked Lin Yu to contact the Feng family. If you want to use your connections, you have to use money..." She wanted to force Su Xuan into a desperate situation. Even if he escaped back to the border, most of his staff and confidants would have been killed or injured. Although the Su family's army at the border were loyal to the Su family and grateful to the Su family, most of them did not dare to rebel easily, so she wanted to make a bigger noise.

Not only did she want to eradicate the Su family, she also wanted to turn all of the Su family's achievements into shame and make them despised by all the people. She didn't believe that the Su family's ancestors were clean.

There has never been a clean noble family in every dynasty. They just use their achievements to paint themselves as heroic and admirable.

There are truly noble families, but they are very few. It is ridiculous to expect them to be honest while they are powerful.

Are integrity and power linked? Obviously not.

Jiang Fenghua earns so much money, she cannot guarantee that she is honest, but at least she does not make money by doing something against her conscience.

Next, Su Xuan will be forced into a desperate situation. Even if he uses money to open up connections, his money will be useless. He claims to be very good at manipulating people's hearts, but the prerequisite is that he must have the title of general bestowed by the royal family to issue orders. Now he is just a fugitive. Who will listen to him, help him rebel, and revive his forces?

Xie Shang, against all odds in the court, sent Jiang Jinyan as an imperial envoy to the border. The emperor even granted him supreme power to act on the emperor's behalf and confiscate all of the Su family's property on the border.

This imperial decree was issued by the emperor, but everyone knew it was the prince's intention. Everyone was thinking about how to deal with the situation in this dangerous situation.

If the Su family army on the border dares to rebel against the court, the prince may be hesitant and stop investigating. However, they don't know enough about this new crown prince. He has already grown strong. The emperor has given the Su family the green light for so many years, and it is up to the crown prince to close it himself. It is vital for him to win this battle.

Xie Shang's arrow had already been shot, and he had no way to retreat. Only by facing the challenge head-on could he lay a solid foundation for himself to ascend the throne and hold power.

What Jiang Fenghua said had already hit his heart, and he would not listen to the ministers' instigation.

Even though he knew that Jiang Fenghua really wanted to deal with the Su family, no matter what the reason was, he still chose to stand on her side as a couple.

Soon, Jiang Fenghua learned that the prince had appointed Jiang Jinyan as an imperial envoy to go to the frontier. A smile appeared on the corner of her lips, for she knew that Xie Shang would make important use of the Jiang family.

If Xie Shang really listened to the old ministers and let the Su family go, he would not be able to govern the Great Zhou well after he ascended the throne, because if there is a first time, there will be a second time. As long as he does not set this precedent, it will be fine.

As for other things, she couldn't care less for the time being. She just had to wait and wait to dig up more old information about the Su family and beat Su Xuan so that he had no ability to fight back.

Here, Zhao Yuntong met Zhang Jingjing just at the palace gate. Thinking of the scene where Zhang Jingjing knelt in front of the emperor on New Year's Eve to file a complaint, she took the initiative to walk up to Zhang Jingjing and said, "Greetings to Zhang Zhaoxun."

Zhao Yuntong didn't understand, her father was a second-rank minister, while Zhang Jingjing's father was only a fourth-rank prefect, not a Beijing official. Although she was a concubine's daughter, her rank should be higher than Zhang Jingjing's in terms of family background and status, and Zhang Jingjing was very poor.

Zhang Jingjing and Zhao Yuntong lived in the same palace. She knew that Zhao Yuntong was rich and her father was the Minister of Revenue. She even looked down on people, so Zhang Jingjing, the proud legitimate daughter, did not have too much conversation with a concubine's daughter.

She said calmly, "Zhao Fengyi wants to see me for something?"

Zhao Yuntong was stunned. "I was thinking that we all live in the same palace, and we are new ladies in the palace. Among the ten ladies, there seem to be only a few who are not favored, including me and Zhang Zhaoxun."

Zhang Jingjing said calmly, "Your Highness the Crown Prince hasn't even been to the Dawn Palace recently, and the Su family's rebellion has not yet ended. Your Highness is busy with the former court, so how can he have time to care about the ladies in the harem? Zhao Fengyi, just wait patiently! Your Highness will think of Zhao Fengyi."

Zhang Jingjing thought to herself: Do you really think I'm a fool? Zhao Yuntong's father, Shangshu Zhao, is in charge of the Ministry of Revenue. I'm afraid he is also a corrupt official. She hates corrupt officials the most. Zhao Yuntong is the daughter of a corrupt official who has enjoyed such a good life. So she hopes that when the prince punishes corrupt officials, their children and relatives will be punished as well.

Zhao Yuntong didn't know why Zhang Jingjing was so cold. Didn't she marry the prince to win his favor and make her father rich?

Zhang Jingjing actually wants the people of Yuzhou to become rich and have a less difficult life. Zhao Yuntong is too superficial and only wants to make himself rich and consolidate the Zhao family's favor.
