Chapter 10 The Disaster of the Minister of Revenue
The medical cabin surprised Yu Tingwan. All his things were already neatly arranged and classified. He thought that this space should be an intelligent space with intelligence, which made his life much more convenient.
I saw that there were not only various herbs, but also various poisons.
Not only that, but all of his various medical instruments and experimental equipment were placed in different rooms, and even his medical books had special shelves for them. It couldn't be more thoughtful.
"Could it be that there is another spirit here?"
However, Yu Tingwan called out a few times tentatively in the space, but no one responded to her, which made her give up the idea.
Then she saw various finished medicines displayed on the other side, which reminded Yu Tingwan of the pills she gave Shen Chenli last night.
He reached out and took out another black pill that he had not yet taken. Both pills were poisonous, but the difference was that the red pill could suppress the poison in his body.
But this one can transform all the poisons in his body into one poison, and from now on he won't have to worry about anyone poisoning him, not even the legendary Gu poison.
It would also allow him to walk and move around like a normal person, but in this case, he would have to suffer every month.
As for why Yu Tingwan didn’t give him food, it was simply because she forgot!
But there is no rush. Let's talk about it after she gets out.
After visiting the medical warehouse, Yu Tingwan went to the armory next door.
The things here are all powerful weapons. She was quite interested in these weapons at first, in order to get rid of the control of those people.
She secretly learned how to make and use these weapons, and finally before leaving there, she collected most of the weapons there into the space.
To this day, those people are still wondering how the weapons were lost!
However, she has never used it since she took it away, and even she herself is not sure how many weapons there are here!
But looking at the various weapons here, not to mention artillery shells, there are also multiple models of pistols and various sniper rifles, as well as various spare parts and ammunition.
I'm afraid it would be no problem for me to organize an elite team of a hundred people in this world!
She reached for a pistol, loaded it and fired at a target in the distance. The familiar feeling made her feel more secure.
It feels so good!
After visiting these two places that were most important to her, she turned around and went outside. The beautiful mountains and clear waters in the distance made her feel much more relaxed.
“There are all kinds of living things in these mountains and waters. I can have a barbecue here when I have nothing to do. But the land next to it can’t be wasted. It would be nice to reclaim it and plant some crops.
Fortunately, I was bored at first, so I stockpiled all kinds of things in this space! Now I have something to play with!"
While Yu Tingwan was wandering in the space, rumors were already flying everywhere outside.
Prince Chen woke up, but became a disabled person who could not walk properly. The new Princess Chen fell into a coma again because of the cruelty of what the Shangshu Mansion did.
In less than a day, the Ministry of Revenue's Mansion became the topic of discussion throughout the capital!
At this moment, the Minister of Revenue still didn't know what was happening in the capital!
But after retiring from court, he, his former father-in-law and brother-in-law were kept by the emperor and taken to the imperial study by the eunuchs in the palace.
"I am here to see you, Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty."
"I see you, Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty."
Emperor Shen Haocang sat upright on the dragon throne in the imperial study, his slanted eyes looking at the three people kneeling below with a gloomy gaze.
"Get up."
The Minister of Revenue didn't know why the emperor called him, but when he saw his former father-in-law, he understood something. Indeed, how could the matter of substitute marriage be hidden from the emperor's eyes?
What's more, there is the Jiang family who dislikes him. If he lets their niece and granddaughter marry in his place, they will definitely go against him.
But he was not worried at all, because the person sitting on it was Emperor Shen Haocang!
As a result, the emperor first asked about the crime.
"Minister of Revenue, do you admit your guilt?"
This question confused Yu Huaiyi. He knelt down again just after he stood up.
"Wei Chen is terrified."
"Fearful? I don't think you are afraid!"
The emperor snorted coldly, "I am concerned about the health of the Prince of Chen, and I also remember that you have worked hard as the Minister of Revenue, so I betrothed your second daughter to the Prince of Chen as his principal wife. But you let your eldest daughter marry him instead. Do you think the Prince of Chen is not worthy of your second daughter, or do you not take my decree seriously?"
After saying this, the Minister of Revenue was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, and his mind suddenly became clear.
"Your Majesty, I know my crime, please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
He was only concerned about not letting his daughter suffer, not wanting her to marry a dying cripple and ruin her future.
Thinking that the emperor also disliked Prince Chen, he simply married his unknown eldest daughter to him. This would make the emperor feel better than marrying his second daughter who was famous in the capital, and he could also give an explanation to his daughter.
But he actually forgot that what the current emperor hates most is people who don't take his words to heart. He was stepping on the emperor's heart!
Seeing him like this, Grand Tutor Jiang Jun who was standing beside him snorted coldly. He was extremely angry in his heart and even more annoyed at how he was so blind to betroth his precious daughter to such a thing!
Not only did he cause his own daughter to die young, but his granddaughter, whom he had only met a few times, was also bullied into this state!
"Your Majesty, the Minister of Revenue has no regard for Your Majesty in his heart by doing this. The majesty of heaven has been violated, which is simply unforgivable. Please punish Your Majesty severely."
The Grand Tutor was not the only one who was angry. The one who spoke was a middle-aged man standing next to him.
This person is Yu Tingwan’s uncle, the current Minister of Personnel Jiang Hongyi. The Jiang family has two sons and one daughter, the eldest is Jiang Hongyi, the second is Jiang Hongxi, and the youngest is Jiang Wanyun.
They had a bad feeling when the emperor suddenly granted the marriage two days ago, and they didn't expect the premonition to come true.
They submitted a memorial overnight, severely scolding Yu Huaiyi. However, what was even more hateful was the news that came out from Prince Chen's mansion this morning, which made them submit two more memorials before going to court, which led to this scene after the court session.
The emperor looked at the three people below, and his anger miraculously disappeared.
He didn't like Prince Chen in the first place, and after the Minister of Revenue married him off, he was still somewhat angry that this man didn't even take him, the emperor, seriously.
But now he didn't think so. The matter of the substitute marriage had already brought shame to the Prince of Chen, and now the Grand Tutor was so angry, maybe he was also dissatisfied with the disabled Prince of Chen.
After all, who would want their family to marry a cripple? I'm afraid the Prince of Chen won't be able to live as peacefully as before! This ending actually made him more satisfied.
The emperor looked at the kneeling Minister of Revenue with a gloomy look in his eyes. This man deserved a reprimand. Even if he was satisfied with what he had done, he acted on his own, which showed that he did not take him, the emperor, seriously!
Thinking of this, the emperor didn't want to see these people anymore. He didn't like any of them, so he directly proposed a solution to the matter.
"The Minister of Revenue took the initiative to make a replacement marriage, disrespecting the royal family and defying the imperial decree. This should be an unforgivable crime, but considering that the Minister of Revenue has been dedicated to the court and the prince has just woken up, I am very relieved and do not want to kill any more people. Therefore, the Minister of Revenue will be fined for three years and confined to his palace for a month as a punishment. In addition, all the dowry of the original wife will be returned to..."
The emperor's personal eunuch chief, Eunuch Cao, stepped forward and whispered in the emperor's ear, "Your Majesty, it's Miss Yu Tingwan."
The emperor nodded and said, "Return it to Yu Tingwan, the current Princess Chen. In addition, I will give Princess Chen a thousand taels of gold, six pieces of brocade, and more tonics to her residence. When she recovers, she can come to the palace to express her gratitude."
"Thank you, Your Majesty for your grace."
