Report to your majesty, the prince is courting death again

Xu An would naturally not give Zhang Anshi a chance.

At this critical moment, he didn't want to lose all his efforts because of this old guy's distortion of right and wrong.

"Hey, Lao Zhang, calm down, anger is harmful to your health."

Xu An lay on the wall and laughed, "Don't just scold people, you should ask them first... why do they prefer to believe me, a prodigal son, instead of the government, right?"

Xu An's voice was loud and spread throughout the venue.

The arguing people then realized that the real owner was on the tower, looking at them with a smile.

Everyone stopped instantly, with different expressions, some fearful, some excited, some panicked...

"Needless to say? You must have threatened and intimidated them."

Zhang Anshi's face was gloomy and he shouted coldly.

He didn't believe that without intimidation and inducement, a group of mud legs dared to go against the court!

Tsk tsk, it's already this time, and you still don't admit defeat, Lao Zhang, you are a typical person who can't afford to lose... Xu An grinned, well, since you won't cry until you see the coffin, then I will start to fight back.

"Okay, since you have the problem, then I will help you solve it."

Xu An pointed at Zhang Anshi and said to the people beside the wooden stake: "Master Zhang said that this young master coerced you, tell him, did this young master coerce you?"

The people looked at each other in surprise.

A moment.

Then someone stood up and said tremblingly: "No... No, the young master did not coerce us."

Hearing this, the people shook their heads, indicating that Xu An did not coerce.

"Hey, but some people don't believe it!"

Xu An shook his head and said with a smile: "Since this young master did not coerce you, why don't you listen to the orders of your cabinet, but listen to the orders of me, a prodigal son?"

"Don't be afraid, just say what you really think in your heart. With this young master here, no one dares to blame you."

Hearing Xu An's words, the people who were originally a little psychologically burdened immediately let go.

"That's for sure, because you really gave me money, young master Xu."

"That's right, I took the reward silver from the court, and it was snatched back by the officials when I went out. The words of the officials don't count!"

"Hehe, if you want to beat me, you have to beat me for the young master, and you can get money for it."

"..."

I don't have the habit of torturing people, that was all done by my predecessor...Xu An listened to the corners of his mouth twitching slightly, and always felt inexplicably ashamed.

Emperor Yuan Kang's face was ashen, and he felt that his whole face seemed to be beaten from left and right, and it was like a pig's head.

Although the court was dominated by the Zhao Party, it was a bit chaotic, but it was not too bad overall. At least he thought he could still control it.

But Xu An's casual move today almost broke his defense.

With Xu Xiao in power, the court could still compete with Zhao Si, but what about the people's hearts?

The people's hearts were gone!

Since ancient times, those who won the hearts of the people won the world. Now even the people's hearts in Kyoto have dispersed. The sense of belonging to the Daqian court is not as good as that of a prodigal son who has been causing trouble in Kyoto for more than ten years!

It's simply ridiculous.

The faces of the ministers also changed. Many people were swallowing their saliva. At this time, they just felt dry mouth and tongue!

Qin Dehai took several steps back, leaning against the wall, his face pale and his eyes empty.

Lou Jinglong also had a dull face, and a deep panic in his eyes.

At this moment, they finally understood.

How could Xu An use a piece of wood to provoke the entire Daqian court?

This is clearly a court stick prepared for them!

This piece of wood hit the face of the Daqian court, hit the faces of the civil and military officials in the court, and even hit... the face of the emperor!

Even the people in Kyoto don't listen to the court, what about the people in other places?

They didn't dare to think about it, it was terrifying to think about it!

They lowered their heads one by one, not daring to guess the expression of Emperor Yuan Kang.

Du Ruhua stared at Xu An, who was sticking his butt out, with the corners of his mouth trembling slightly, his eyes full of shock and anger.

He originally thought that this prodigal son was just playing a small game, but he didn't expect him to play so big, using a wooden stake to directly expose the accumulated problems of Daqian's official administration to the public.

Even if this kind of major event needs to be rectified, shouldn't a strategy be formulated before implementation?

The rectification of official administration is a major event related to the fate of the dynasty. If it is not handled properly, it may cause a situation where the whole world rebels.

For example, who among those frontier officials would be willing to surrender and wait for your court to send people to investigate?

Madman, the old thief and the little thief of the Xu family are all madmen... Du Ruhua roared in her heart. After today, Emperor Yuankang will definitely make a big fuss about this, and the situation may get out of control.

After all, even the people of Kyoto have lost confidence in the court, and the emperor can do anything!

Zhang Anshi stood downstairs, and at this time, he was shaking like a leaf in the wind.

How could he not know what Xu An wanted to do?What? He originally wanted to forcefully divert his attention, but he didn't expect that Xu An would pull him back again in just a few words.

He felt a chill on his neck, as if his head would move at any time!

"Hey, Lao Zhang, did you hear that? Are you convinced now?"

Xu An raised his hand and pointed at himself, saying, "Master, I have said it long ago. In Kyoto, who can compete with me except the emperor's decree?"

"You still don't believe it, I'll ask you now, do you believe it or not?"

Xu An swept his eyes across the audience.

No one answered.

Zhang Anshi fell to the ground, and the ministers who were swept by his eyes, although they wanted to kill him at this time, all lowered their heads.

Not afraid of him.

But afraid of Emperor Yuankang.

Usually, whenever Emperor Yuankang made some extraordinary moves and behaviors, they would advise and impeach him, wishing to press Emperor Yuankang on the dragon throne as a mascot.

It is not Emperor Yuankang who is out of line now, but them!

Zhao Si is not in the capital, and they may not be able to withstand the emperor's wrath!

"Hey, Master, I regret it a little. If I had known that I could win for sure, I should have gambled a little."

Xu An grinned and said with some distress: "10,000 taels per person, so many people, we should be able to make 1.8 million taels, what a pity, what a pity..."

Xiao Yuanlang nodded, he felt the same way, if he gambled, he would have more money to help with disaster relief.

"Why gamble?"

Wu Xie looked at everyone with a sword in his arms, and said in a deep voice: "Wouldn't it be better to confiscate the house?"

Confiscating the house and confiscating all the property, wouldn't it make more money than betting?

Xu An and Xiao Yuanlang's eyes lit up, and they both gave a thumbs up: "Good idea."

Everyone's face was twitching slightly, shut up, you are just afraid that the world will not be in chaos, right?

Emperor Yuankang was so angry that he laughed when he saw the three people singing the same tune. If they confiscated all the property, would the court still be able to operate?

However, it is impossible to confiscate all the property, but the momentum can be used.

After all, Xu An has done things to this point, and as an emperor, he must express his attitude.

"Confiscate the property? Well, I also think it's a good idea."

Emperor Yuankang turned and looked at the ministers behind him: "What do you think?"
