Chapter 1867 The Queen of the Lost Nation Saves the Nation Online 15
"Empress Dowager, what did you just say?" Marquis Cheng'en looked at Yun Qian in disbelief, his eyes full of confusion and shock. He even suspected that there was something wrong with his ears, which caused him to mishear Yun Qian's words. He couldn't help but ask again.
Yun Qian smiled slightly and did not answer Marquis Cheng'en's words. Instead, she directly slammed the stack of papers in her hand in front of Marquis Cheng'en, and the papers scattered all over the floor.
She looked at Marquis Cheng'en with a half-smile and said in a gentle tone, "You have to choose between life or money. Marquis Cheng'en, choose one yourself."
Marquis Cheng'en frowned, a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes. He saw the stack of papers in front of him, but didn't care at first. He just picked up a piece and glanced at it casually.
However, after just one glance, he was stunned, his body stiffened instantly, and an expression of astonishment appeared on his face.
Not long after, beads of sweat began to appear on his forehead and his face turned pale.
Yun Qian looked at Marquis Cheng'en with a smile, a hint of sarcasm in his eyes.
She asked softly, "What's wrong? Why is Marquis Cheng'en silent? Is he feeling unwell? Do you want me to summon a royal physician for you?"
Hearing Yun Qian's voice, Marquis Cheng En suddenly came back to his senses, quickly put away his thoughts, swallowed hard, and then looked at Yun Qian.
At this moment, his heart was filled with fear and anxiety, because the contents recorded on the paper were so shocking that it recorded every detail, including when and how much silver he had embezzled.
But he still tried to remain calm and directly denied the contents of the paper, "Empress Dowager, these are all slanders! I, Marquis Cheng'en, have always been upright and loyal to the Emperor and the Xichao Kingdom. How could I have done such a thing? Please understand, Empress Dowager!"
Hearing this, Yun Qian raised her eyebrows, "Oh? Then the silver buried under the bamboo forest in your backyard is not yours?"
Marquis Cheng'en's face froze, but soon returned to normal, "I don't understand what the Queen Mother means?"
Yun Qian nodded in understanding. The next second, he waved his hand and said to the guards he brought with him, "Since those are not the silver of Marquis Cheng'en, then they must be the silver of Xichao Kingdom. Let's just go and dig them up."
"Yes!"
The captain of the guards nodded and led his men directly towards Marquis Cheng'en's courtyard.
Seeing this, Marquis Cheng'en was completely panicked and quickly stood up, "Empress Dowager! You are trespassing!!"
Yun Qian, "Then report me to the police and have me arrested."
Marquis Cheng’en, “…!”
Seeing that the guards were no longer visible, Marquis Cheng'en said hurriedly, "Empress Dowager, what do you want to do? By doing this, do you think we court officials are not worthy of your attention?"
Yun Qian, "Then go report me to the police and have me arrested."
Marquis Cheng’en, “…!”
After that, no matter what Marquis Cheng En said, Yun Qian would always tell him to report to the police. This really pissed Marquis Cheng En off to death.
About half an hour later, the group of guards came out carrying boxes of heavy silver.
After seeing this scene, Marquis Cheng'en no longer wanted to live in Bengbu. His eyes went dark and he fainted.
Seeing this, he curled his lips and took his people to the next house.
Thanks to Yun Qian's efforts, the originally empty treasury became full overnight, but the result was that Yun Qian was jointly reported by a group of ministers at the morning court the next day.
"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is really too much! Yesterday, she brought people to break into our home and took away all the money we had saved with great difficulty. We will have nothing to eat in the future... Please, Your Majesty, please help us!"
The moment the words fell, a large number of court officials knelt down in the court.
"Don't worry, my dear ministers. Don't worry. I won't be so vicious as to leave you starving."
After he finished speaking, Yun Qian walked into the Golden Palace slowly, holding a thick stack of charges with a smile on her face.
After approaching, Yun Qian directly handed those things to Su Jihan.
Su Jihan was puzzled and picked up a piece of paper at random and scanned it. The next second, his face immediately darkened.
When the courtiers kneeling on the ground saw those familiar papers, they were completely shocked. They had never expected that Yun Qian would take the silver away and even shake them out! !
You're right, they really don't have to starve to death, because they will soon have prison food...
No! They thought they could still save it!
Thinking of this, several people looked at each other, and the next second, they all said to Su Jihan who was sitting on the dragon throne, "Your Majesty! The Queen Mother is really too much! She actually pinned some false charges on us! Your Majesty, you must make the decision for us! What is the Queen Mother's intention in doing this!"
"Shut up!" Su Jihan had no expression on his face. The next second, he said in a cold voice, "Someone, drag all these people away!"
Soon, a group of guards rushed in and dragged the ministers who were kneeling on the ground out without hesitation.
For a moment, the Golden Throne Hall became much emptier.
The remaining ministers looked at each other in bewilderment when they saw this scene, but before they could say anything, Su Jihan had someone bring the papers to them.
After reading it, all the ministers frowned.
