My uncle is Zhu Di

Chapter 68: Whose money will the confiscated property money belong to?
Zhu Di was smiling there. Zhu Gaochi and Empress Xu knew Zhu Di best. This was a manifestation of Zhu Di's anger.

Zhu Gaochi was very worried about Zhu Di, so he walked over quickly and supported Zhu Di. Zhu Di shook off Zhu Gaochi's hand and said with a smile, "Call the third brother."

Zhu Gaochi glanced at a eunuch at the door, and the eunuch immediately bowed and went out.

Zhu Di went over to support Empress Xu and said with a smile, "Don't worry, your body is fine, don't worry, it's okay, I'm here! Just a few of them can't make any waves."

Empress Xu held Zhu Di's hand, and the couple sat down in front of the desk. Empress Xu said to Zhu Di: "Punish severely, and execute the whole family if necessary. If it gets out, it will be a joke. They are all close to you, but they deceived you and treated you perfunctorily. When you are in front of me, you are trembling with fear, and you will leave this palace and show off your power.

My decree cannot leave the palace, so can your Majesty's imperial edict also not leave the palace?"

Zhu Di nodded, gently stroked Empress Xu's back, and said with a smile: "It's okay, it won't cause any trouble!"

Liu Yongcheng was kneeling there at this moment, sweat on his forehead.

The same is true for Hou Xian.

Zhu Di looked at Liu Yongcheng and said, "Tell me in detail what happened."

Liu Yongcheng lay there and immediately told Zhu Di everything he knew.

Zhu Di stroked his beard, smiled, looked at Hou Xian and said, "Hou Xian, if I remember correctly, the content of the imperial edict was publicized by the Weaving Bureau. How dare your godson be so bold? What Shajiabao said could be completely ignored by the people below. What's wrong? When did the Weaving Bureau become this slave's? Am I so easy to deceive?"

Hou Xian kowtowed repeatedly and said to Zhu Di: "Your Majesty, I deserve to die. I did not teach him well and let him have delusions. Please punish me, Your Majesty."

"Punishment? Punishment? Haha, well, Lang Kun treats the Weaving Bureau as his own. I want to do something in the Weaving Bureau, but I can't do it well. Okay! He has this ability, he is really amazing!" Zhu Di said with a smile, but there was no warmth in his tone.

"Liu Yongcheng, go to the Weaving Bureau and send all those who know about this to the imperial prison. You should also send your godson Shang Minghai there in person." Zhu Di said to Liu Yongcheng.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I would never dare to show favoritism." Liu Yongcheng kowtowed immediately and was about to stand up.

"Wait a minute, I remember telling you that when Xu Qin goes to the Weaving Bureau, he needs to send someone to follow him. Did you send someone?" Zhu Di stared at Liu Yongcheng and asked.

Liu Yongcheng kowtowed again, and said to Zhu Di with a stiff upper lip: "I have sent you."

Zhu Di stared at Liu Yongcheng and said calmly: "Since they have been sent, they are still so bold. It seems that the Weaving Bureau has really become their world. The Weaving Bureau is a country within a country."

After hearing this, Liu Yongcheng kowtowed again.

"Go, send them all to the imperial prison." Zhu Di waved his hand and said.

Liu Yongcheng immediately stood up and walked out of the imperial study. When he got outside, his back was all wet.

Then he took his men to the weaving bureau.

When they arrived at the weaving bureau, the main managers there were not there. Liu Yongcheng thought about it and decided to go to Xu Qin's workshop.

At this moment, Xu Qin was sitting in the office of the workshop reading a book. Lang Kun and the others were all kneeling there, and no one dared to speak. When they came, Xu Qin said, "Don't disturb me while I'm reading. If you have anything to say, wait until I finish reading."

When those people heard it, they could only kneel there, not daring to make a sound.

At this time, Xiao Ningyue came in. She originally wanted to come here to get closer to Xu Qin, especially when those businessmen brought beautiful women to see Xu Qin last time. Xiao Ningyue felt uneasy and was afraid that Xu Qin would get tired of the old and fall in love with the new. Although she was nothing in front of Xu Qin, Xiao Ningyue didn't want Xu Qin to be targeted by other businessmen.

Xiao Ningyue came in and saw five eunuchs kneeling here. Judging from their official uniforms, they were of high rank. After a closer look, she recognized them all. These people were the managers of the Weaving Bureau. Xiao Ningyue was so surprised that she wanted to leave.

But those eunuchs had already seen Xiao Ningyue, and Xiao Ningyue did not dare to go out, for fear that they would hate her, after all, she had seen their ugly side.

Xiao Ningyue gritted her teeth and walked to Xu Qin's side. Seeing that there was not much water in Xu Qin's teacup, she picked up the kettle and added water to Xu Qin's teacup.

"What are you doing here?" Xu Qin put down the book and asked Xiao Ningyue.

"I, I, I don't have anything to do. I just came over to take a look, that, that." Xiao Ningyue was also very nervous, worried that those eunuchs would take revenge on her.

"Master Xu, please spare my life, please spare my life, please go back to the weaving bureau now." Lang Kun saw Xu Qin put down the book and immediately kowtowed. "Yes, yes, please spare my life, Master Xu." Everyone else kowtowed.

Xu Qin looked at them and smiled, saying, "If I don't want to go, why would I go? I can't move anyone. Am I sick? My uncle is just playing tricks on the kids. He gave me a token, and I thought it would be very useful!"

"It works, it works, it really works, Mr. Xu, we beg you, we were wrong, Mr. Xu, your future as the Weaving Bureau, whatever you say is the final word, please come back with us." Lang Kun was crying, his godfather Hou Xian said it very clearly, if Xu Qin was not allowed to return to the Weaving Bureau, they would not be able to survive.

At this moment, there were many footsteps outside, and then Liu Yongcheng came in with a group of people. The leader of the East Factory was actually the eunuch, but the captains under him were actually carefully selected from the Jinyiwei, and each of them had good martial arts.

Liu Yongcheng arrived at the office and saw Xu Qin sitting there. He went over and bowed to Xu Qin, saying, "I, Liu Yongcheng, the eunuch in charge of the Imperial Household Department, greet Master Xu. Your Majesty has ordered that they be arrested and sent to the Imperial Prison."

"What the hell? What does it mean? Kill all at once. Your Majesty, do you hope that the Weaving Bureau will collapse immediately?" After hearing this, Xu Qin stared at Liu Yongcheng and asked with a frown.

"Ah, this, this, I don't know." Liu Yongcheng was also confused. Xu Qin meant not to arrest him? This was not acceptable. Disrespecting the imperial power was a capital crime!
Xu Qin stood up at this moment, walked in front of Liu Yongcheng, and hooked his finger at him. Liu Yongcheng came over puzzled, and Xu Qin whispered in his ear: "After sending them to the imperial prison, are we going to confiscate their property?"

"Ah?" Liu Yongcheng looked at Xu Qin in confusion.

"Whose money does the confiscated money belong to? This money should belong to the Weaving Bureau. If it goes into the imperial treasury, that won't be good. The Weaving Bureau needs money to buy things. So, when you confiscate the house, you need to make it clear. Also, if you arrest them all, what should I do? What about the Weaving Bureau's affairs?" Xu Qin said to Liu Yongcheng.

Liu Yongcheng was very happy to hear Xu Qin's words. He also wanted to say it in front of Zhu Di, but he didn't dare to. Now it is a serious crime of contempt for imperial power. However, strictly speaking, this matter has nothing to do with Shang Minghai and others. They also need to obey Lang Kun.

But to say that they are completely innocent is certainly impossible. They also know that Xu Qin came with the imperial edict.

Liu Yongcheng immediately bowed to Xu Qin and said, "This matter still needs to be discussed by Master Xu. We dare not do it."

"Don't dare?" Xu Qin stared at Liu Yongcheng and asked.

"Yes, I dare not. His Majesty is furious." Liu Yongcheng nodded, trying to encourage Xu Qin to speak.

Lang Kun and the others were now trembling with fear. Liu Yongcheng's words just now had paralyzed them with fear.

"Forget it if you don't dare. The Weaving Bureau is not mine. It's none of my business. Okay, take it away. It's okay. By the way, take the token back with you. It's in the Weaving Bureau. I won't go to the Weaving Bureau either. Just like that, go out. I want to read a book." Xu Qin said to Liu Yongcheng with a smile.

"Ah, this, this." Liu Yongcheng was dumbfounded. This was not according to the routine. He didn't care.

Liu Yongcheng stood there, looked at Xu Qin, then looked at the eunuchs slumped on the ground, sighed, waved his hand, and those people dragged Lang Kun and the others away.

The eunuchs who were dragged away looked ashen. They all knew they were finished, but they couldn't understand why they would all be sent to prison just because Xu Qin had been sitting in the weaving bureau for a quarter of an hour. How could they do things this way?

At least you can create a conflict. There is no conflict at all. Just throwing a token will cost everyone's life.

Xu Qin ignored them and continued reading.

At noon, Zhu Di listened to the reports of Liu Yongcheng and Zhu Gaosui. Zhu Gaosui seized more than 1.7 million taels of silver, various jewelry, valuable calligraphy and paintings worth one million taels, more than ten house deeds, and more than 30 shops from the homes of the five of them. The key point is that the Jinyiwei had not yet reported the data of their relatives.

"Five people made several million taels. They are really bold. Is the Weaving Bureau so lucrative?" Zhu Di said as he sat there, stroking his beard.

"Dad, there must be a lot of good things in their hometown. At least there must be a lot of land." Zhu Gaochi said to Zhu Di with a smile.

"Well, Liu Yongcheng, what does Sakya Bao say?" Zhu Di didn't care about that.

Liu Yongcheng's brain started working at this moment. Money, yes, Shakyabao needed money, so he kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty, when I went to arrest them, Master Xu said that we can't arrest them all. If we arrest them all, what should we do with the Weaving Bureau? Also, Master Xu asked, whose money should be paid by the confiscation of property? Should it be from the inner treasury or the Weaving Bureau? They were originally employed by the Weaving Bureau, so this money should be given to the Weaving Bureau, and the Weaving Bureau needs money.

But the little one didn't dare to make the decision, so he could only catch them all.

But Master Xu said that since that was the case, he wasn't going to the weaving bureau anyway, so it didn't matter.

Your Majesty, I think that we should listen to Master Xu's opinion on this matter. The Weaving Bureau needs Master Xu to do things now."

After saying this, he kowtowed and then lay there motionless, not daring to move, hoping in his heart that Zhu Di would agree.
