Chapter 2190 The stepping stone she went on strike 16
Yun Qian had no intention of listening to his meaningless nonsense. She waved her hand impatiently, signaling the guards beside her to take action immediately and drag the man away mercilessly.
This time, Yun Qian did not kill Qin Lanzhou immediately as he did before.
After all, for such a person, a simple death is too merciful. Only by letting him linger in endless pain and torture can the hatred in his heart be relieved.
After Qin Lanzhou's embarrassed figure completely disappeared from everyone's sight, Yun Qian's beautiful eyes slowly retracted and fixed their gaze on the ministers who were still standing there and whispering.
She opened her red lips slightly, and her tone was so cold that it seemed to freeze the air around her in an instant: "You guys, have you finished your chattering?"
Hearing these words out of the blue, the ministers who were whispering to each other trembled violently, as if they were cast under a spell, and became extremely stiff in an instant.
Then, they forced out an awkward smile that was uglier than crying. Their backs were already soaked with cold sweat. They explained tremblingly, "Your Majesty, please calm down... Your Majesty, please calm down! We were just talking about the sunny and pleasant weather today, hahaha..."
However, facing such far-fetched rhetoric, Yun Qian only raised the corners of his mouth slightly, outlining a faint sneer, his eyes full of mockery: "Oh? Really? Do you know the consequences of deceiving the emperor?"
Before he finished speaking, there was a "swish" sound, and the ministers knelt on the ground without saying a word, kowtowed and begged: "Your Majesty, please spare my life! Your Majesty, please spare my life! I was just joking with my colleagues just now, and I didn't mean to be disrespectful at all!"
"Yes, yes, yes! We ministers were actually discussing the hostage from the Kingdom of Yue just now. It is absolutely true!" Another minister also hurriedly echoed, fearing that if he spoke a step slower, he would be killed.
Yun Qian rolled her eyes speechlessly. She waved her hand gently, turned around and walked towards the direction of the imperial study with elegant steps, saying, "Okay, stop kneeling, and follow me to the imperial study."
Hearing this, several ministers quickly got up from the ground as if relieved, and pushed and shoved each other to follow Yun Qian towards the imperial study.
After arriving at the imperial study, Yun Qian threw a thick stack of weapon drawings and some heavy high-yield grains heavily on the ground without hesitation.
These things scattered around with a dull sound, as if it were a silent command.
Yun Qian crossed his arms over his chest, with a strange smile on his face. He stared at the ministers in front of him and said in an unquestionable tone: "Do it well! You are all loyal ministers of my Mu'an country, shouldering important responsibilities. I believe you will not let me down, right?"
Hearing these words, the ministers who were originally immersed in ecstasy because of seeing so many precious things suddenly felt as if a bucket of cold water was poured on them, and they all came back to their senses from their excitement.
They looked at the mountains of drawings and food on the table and felt that the days ahead would not be easy. Thinking of this possibility, the ministers felt as if they were fading away and secretly complained in their hearts.
Suddenly, one of the ministers thought of something, looked cautiously at the tyrant in front of him, and stammered, "Your Majesty, you... know that the treasury is empty, right?" As he spoke, he carefully observed the changes in Yun Qian's expression.
The previous emperor's extravagant and licentious life during his reign caused the financial situation of Mu'an Kingdom to deteriorate and eventually the national treasury was completely emptied.
At this moment, facing the empty treasury, even if these ministers have extraordinary abilities, they are powerless!
They just feel that the future will be bleak and the future is bleak.
Yun Qian looked at them, and the corners of his mouth suddenly curled up. The next second, he threw a long list over. "The guys on this list are all corrupt officials and trash. If we confiscate their homes, won't the national treasury be enriched? I guess, even if these guys have some relationship with you, all of you loyal ministers will definitely be impartial, right?"
Several ministers, "......"
Yun Qian thought for a moment, then pulled out the three phoenixes from the corner, and handed them to the person closest to her. She said calmly, "Come on, I will always be watching over you."
Several ministers and the three phoenixes looked at each other.
Looking at the black, white and red colors, several ministers suddenly understood and their eyes widened.
The minister who was holding the three little guys began to tremble with excitement.
"Old man, why are you shaking?" One of the little guys tilted his head, raised his wings and shook them.
Hearing this voice, the minister holding the phoenix was so excited that he choked and fainted, and fell straight to the ground. The three little guys were so scared that they flew away immediately.
