System invasion, Queen fights monsters to upgrade, kills the system

Yinshan Ferry was so shocked by the sky-high price of 100,000 taels of silver per month that it almost fell down...

His body was rigid with rage.

His face was livid, his lips were tightly shut, and his chest was rising and falling rapidly, clearly showing that he was extremely angry.

No wonder Hu Changqing was able to tightly control the entire palace's network of relationships. It turned out that he had seized other people's property and spent money to get it.

Yinshandu sneered a few times, pointed at Master Hu and Cheng Jinyun, and said, "Okay, one hundred thousand taels of silver a month, that's really a lot of money."

"Master Hu, you are actually making so much money in my capital city. Are you afraid that the Hu family won't be able to survive?"

"And you, Cheng Jinyun, tell me in detail how the 100,000 taels of silver came from this month!"

Cheng Jinyun was so frightened that he was in a panic. He waved his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I was forced into this. In the eyes of outsiders, I am the son-in-law of the Grand Tutor, but in fact, I am just a dog in their family."

"Whatever he tells me to do, I must do it."

"How can this guilty minister raise such a sum of 100,000 taels of silver? I, your guilty minister, your guilty minister..."

Cheng Jinyun glanced at Yinshan Ferry and his voice became lower and lower: "I, the guilty minister, have seized the property of several... wealthy families."

Yinshan Du looked at his timid appearance and became furious.

He kicked Cheng Jinyun to the ground and scolded loudly: "Speak louder, you have the courage to do it, but not the courage to say it?"

Seeing Yinshandu's sullen face, Cheng Jinyun ignored the pain in his chest and quickly got up and knelt again: "I deserve to die, I deserve to die. I am so bold as to be so shameless."

"In order to reach the monthly payment of 100,000 taels of silver, I seized other people's property."

Yinshandu continued to kick him, and as he kicked, he said, "There's more, keep telling me!"

"If you dare to make any mistakes, I will skin you alive immediately!"

Cheng Jinyun was terrified and confessed the source of the huge sum of money: "I have also secretly accepted a lot of money from officials, as well as monthly tributes from messengers and post station managers."

He stole a glance at Yinshan Ferry and continued, "There is also a grant...grant from the court to the Ministry of Works."

Yinshan Duqi felt a bursting pain in his brain and his whole body staggered.

"So, the levee in Luocheng burst, causing 30,000 people to be displaced. It was not because the Minister of Works neglected his duties, but because you embezzled the money."

Yinshandu directly pulled out the sword from the waist of the imperial guard and stabbed it into Cheng Jinyun's shoulder: "The Minister of Works saw the dike burst in Luocheng and the people suffered. He felt extremely guilty and jumped into the rushing flood on the spot."

"And you, the culprit, can still live so peacefully. I really underestimated the hard-heartedness of your family."

After saying that, he looked at Eji beside him and gave orders.

"Eji, torture Cheng Jinyun severely. Make him confess the names of the families whose property he has seized, and where the remaining money has gone. If there is any discrepancy in the money, cut off a piece of his flesh and feed it to the dogs!"

After receiving the order, Eji dragged Cheng Jinyun away like a dead dog.

Yinshandu looked at Master Hu who was kneeling beside him, and his followers behind him. His eyes were icy cold, filled with murderous intent.

He held the sword, walked to the last person, and asked: "What did you do for that traitor?"

The invigilator kept his head down, not daring to look into Yinshan Du's eyes, and answered tremblingly: "I am guilty, I stole, stole and replaced the examinee's test paper for Master Hu, no, for that traitor."

"What's the name of that candidate?"

"Call, call, Kong Hou."

Yinshan Du swung the sword in his hand and directly cut off one of the invigilator's arms.

He ordered the imperial guards behind him: "Drag him away and send him to the Ministry of Justice. Once he has confessed his crimes, take him to the market and torture him to death."

After saying that, he looked at the invigilator who was already terrified and added: "If you dare to commit suicide or conceal the truth, I will torture your entire family together!"

Then he walked to the person in front and asked the same question: "What did you do for that traitor?"

The man trembled and said, "I am the manager of the courier post station. I have never done anything for the traitor."

"I just used their name to ask for more money from the palace maids and eunuchs."

"Your Majesty, I have realized my mistake. I will now explain all the money I have obtained."

Yinshandu glanced at the imperial guards behind him and said, "Come here, drag him away and make him explain himself."

When the imperial guards dragged down the courier post, he silently made a killing gesture to the imperial guards.

Yinshan Du interrogated the remaining gang members one by one.

Among them were the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, a Lieutenant General, a Bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, a Priest of the Imperial Academy, and a Secretary of the Dali Temple...

It can be said that the entire Dayin, except for the Imperial Observatory and the Xu family army that broke into Xuzhou, every corner was filled with Hu Taifu's people.

Yinshan Du didn't know how many times he had swung his sword. All he could see were broken limbs on the ground and the sword in his hand dripping with blood.

That being the case, the anger in Yinshan Du's heart did not diminish at all, but instead grew stronger.

He threw away the sword in his hand and kicked the biggest culprit of all the cases - Master Hu with all his strength.

"You are a traitor, and you still want to eat away my kingdom?"

"If you are a wise ruler, I, Yinshandu, am willing to abdicate and let you take over!"

"But who do you think you are? Do the people of Dayin have a place in your heart?"

Yinshandu squatted down, grabbed Master Hu by the collar, patted his face, and said, "Old man, if I really let someone like you take away Dayin Jiangshan, the ancestors of my Yinshan family will not be able to rest in peace even after death!"

"Before, I was blind and confused."

"Now that I'm awake, you deserve to die!"

After saying that, he loosened Tutor Hu's collar, stood up and walked to the door of Facheng Gate.

Yinshan Du took off the dragon crown on his head and the black robe embroidered with dragons in public.

He turned to look at Xuzhou He on the side and said softly: "Xiaohe, help me, please!"

Xuzhou He tightly grasped the bright yellow edict of repentance in his hand, frowned and looked at Yinshan Ferry, shaking his head slightly at him.

He said to Yinshandu in his heart: Do you know what it means to issue an edict of repentance? The world will forever tie you to Hu Changqing!

Why do you have to take the blame for things that were clearly not done by you?

Yinshandu paused for a moment, then answered him in his heart: It doesn't matter, the system has destroyed the two most important things in my heart. I don't care what the world will say about me anymore.

It doesn’t matter to the people who did the evil.

The rest of my life is destined to be spent on atonement, and it is also destined that I will not be able to struggle out of this quagmire.

Xiao He, please help me hang up the edict of apology.

The more Xuzhou He explored Yinshan Du's heart, the more he could feel the helplessness and sadness in his heart.

He looked at Yinshan Du's pleading eyes, gritted his teeth, and turned over and jumped onto the gate tower of Facheng Gate.

Immediately afterwards, Xuzhou He used a golden hook to hang the edict of repentance in his hand on the plaque of Facheng Gate.

The six-foot-long edict of repentance unfolded in an instant and appeared before the eyes of the world.

Everyone present was shocked by this action: Your Majesty, are you going to publicly admit your fault?

Only Yinshan Qian smiled with satisfaction at this confession of guilt: This is the Yinshan Du who dares to act and take responsibility...

Yinshan Du stood in front of the confession with dishevelled hair, and said to the onlookers: "I, Yinshan Du, was not good at judging people and mistakenly trusted the treacherous."

"It led to treacherous officials controlling the court and vicious women monopolizing power. They brought chaos to the government and put the people in dire straits without realizing it."

"Today I am issuing a self-criticism edict, which will be hung for three months to show my guilt!"

His voice was deafening and left a deep shock in everyone's heart.

The impact of this move is huge.

With this edict of apology, even if he worked hard to govern the country and made great achievements in the future, the world would still label him as a tyrant and even deny all his achievements.

Few monarchs in history were willing to issue an edict of repentance to admit their mistakes.

Because no one wants to stay on the pillar of shame for thousands or even tens of thousands of years.

No one wants to be criticized by the world after death.

However, Yinshan Du did not care about these things. Only Xuzhou He understood his thoughts.

Yinshan Du felt that it was enough to have one person who could understand him.

Master Hu looked at the blatant edict of apology. He knew that Yinshan Ferry had no scruples at this time and would not let go of himself and the dead Chang Qing.

Even the entire Taifu Mansion and the Hu family...
