"It's so noisy." Ye Yi's face instantly turned black and he said coldly: "An Xi, you can't handle even the smallest things. Do you not want to be the captain of the guard anymore?"

How could it be that a little imperial envoy wanted to teach him a lesson?

It’s simply a matter of life and death.

"Subordinate, tell him to shut up immediately." Seeing the prince's thunderous rage, An Xi was startled. He immediately bent over and took off the smelly socks on his feet, stepped forward, slapped him hard with a big mouth, and cursed...

"You bitch, if you dare to teach the prince a lesson, do you not want to live anymore?"

He stuffed the stinky sock in the imperial envoy's mouth hard, and it was immediately blocked.

The scene fell silent for a moment.

Ye Yi's expression softened.

The imperial envoy had a smelly sock stuffed into his mouth, which made his stomach churn and he couldn't help but retching: "Ugh, vomit, vomit..."

Damn it, why does this thing smell so bad?

Helpless, the two iron cavalrymen beside him held his mouth tightly, unable to spit out at all.

Finally, the cavalry guards dragged him away like a dead dog.

Now it's better, the imperial envoy has no dignity at all.

royal palace.

Royal study room.

The emperor was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, sitting on the dragon chair, looking at the prince with a sinister look, and asked in disbelief...

"What? The main granary was robbed, and hundreds of thousands of kilograms of grain disappeared?"

"Taiwei, are you kidding me? As far as I know, the general granary is built in Taiwei's Mansion. Who dares to go to Taiwei's Mansion to rob?"

"And so much food has been moved away, isn't there any movement? Are all the hundreds of people in the Taiwei's house dead?"

During the morning court just now, a minister reported that the capital was beginning to be short of food, and asked the emperor to quickly find a way to solve the food problem in the capital. The people in the province would panic, thinking that the capital would be famine like Taihe County.

The emperor knew full well that he had a monopoly on the entire capital's food supply and could not possibly supply enough for the people in the capital.

Therefore, as soon as he came to court, he immediately sent someone to summon the Taiwei into the palace for questioning.

The Taiwei said with a sad face...

"Reporting to the Emperor, this matter is indeed strange, but it is really true. Hundreds of thousands of kilograms of grain in the granary have indeed disappeared. I am also confused."

During this period, he was cut off by the emperor and stayed in the mansion to recuperate. The strange thing was that he had gone to the granary to check it the day before. At that time, the granary was full of grain.

Unexpectedly, the next day, when the emperor sent someone to summon him to the palace, he discovered that hundreds of thousands of kilograms of food had disappeared.

What's even more strange is that no one in the whole house heard even a single movement.

This thing is so weird.

The emperor was suspicious by nature, and of course he did not believe such nonsense. He thought that the Taiwei hated him for cutting off his lifeblood, and deliberately swallowed the grain to retaliate against him.

Thinking of this, the emperor slapped the dragon case hard and said fiercely: "Taiwei, you blasphemed the empress dowager. You should have been cut into pieces to be worthy of your father, but I am kind and remember that you have contributed to the court over the years, so you are not destroyed." Your nine clans are just small punishments and big warnings. They have already treated you with kindness and justice. You'd better be calm and don't play tricks behind my back. If you are found to be greedy for food, I won't be able to spare you."

The lieutenant knelt on the ground, sweating with fear. He shook his head quickly, raised three fingers and swore...

"Your Majesty, I swore a poisonous oath. This matter is absolutely true. If I told half a lie and deceived the Emperor, I would be struck by lightning and die."

The emperor had a sullen face and stared at him without saying a word, as if he was speculating on the truth or falsehood of these words.

At this time, a royal guard hurriedly ran in, knelt on the ground and reported that the imperial minister had failed to rescue people in Taihe County. Not only did Prince Zhan refuse to let go of the emperor's people, but he also exposed the county prince and the leader of the Imperial Guard in public. Beheaded everywhere.

"Your Majesty, after Lord Zhan killed the leader, all the remaining tens of thousands of soldiers were sent to the border and incorporated into his million-strong army."

The implication is that Ye Yi privatized the emperor's army.

When the emperor heard this, he was almost furious. He didn't have many people in the first place, but now he was fine. He had given away all his people to Ye Yi.

He smashed the Four Treasures of the Study on the Dragon Case and cursed...

"Ye Yi, you damn traitor and treacherous minister, have you really rebelled against me and dared to devour one of my own people?"

Taiwei: “…….”

He secretly complained in his heart, Your Majesty, I have already swallowed it.

Suddenly, the Taiwei's eyes lit up and he said...

"Your Majesty, I suspect that the missing food from Taiwei's Mansion was stolen by Prince Zhan. Otherwise, how could he come up with so much food to help the victims in Taihe County?"

The emperor thought it made sense, but how did Prince Zhan steal hundreds of thousands of kilograms of grain from the Taiwei Mansion without any trace?

Hundreds of thousands of pounds.

It's not as simple as one or two hundred pounds.

Moving is a big project.

Moreover, it is impossible to make no noise during transportation.

Lieutenant: “…….”

He couldn't figure it out either.

However, he had a hunch that this matter must have something to do with Prince Zhan.

Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind and he blurted out...

"Your Majesty, Princess Zhan and the younger princes know how to control animals. Is it possible that the food in Weichen's mansion was secretly moved away by animals under their command? That's why Weichen didn't hear anything."

Emperor: "Well, it's possible."

However, even if the food was stolen by animals, there should still be movement. Why didn't anyone in the Taiwei Mansion hear the sound?

Just when they were puzzled, the empress dowager came with a large group of palace maids and eunuchs. As soon as they walked into the door, the empress dowager saw the Taiwei kneeling in front of the emperor in a panic.

She was eager to protect her lover and couldn't wait to say...

"Your Majesty, the Taiwei has been punished, please don't make things difficult for him anymore."

She heard that the Taiwei had been summoned to the palace by the emperor, and she was worried that something might happen to the Taiwei, so she immediately brought people over.

The emperor's face instantly darkened again. As the empress dowager, the mother had no sense of shame at all. How dare she help her concubine in public?

He shouted angrily...

"Come here, the Taiwei's poor supervision caused all the food in the general granary to be stolen by thieves, causing the capital's food supply to be insufficient. Drag him down and beat him with 20 sticks."
