Your Majesty, You Can't

Chapter 85 - Things are not going well

When He Lanzhi saw the bloody "Help" written on it, the fingertips holding the rice paper couldn't help trembling.

"Whose is this?" He Lanzhi felt as if his throat was being strangled, and his voice couldn't help trembling, "This blood book...can't be the emperor's?"

The official looked in horror at He Lanzhi's face that might faint at any moment, and quickly explained: "My lord, please don't shake, this paper is cinnabar ink, not blood, and this word is not the emperor's."

When He Lanzhi heard this, the heart hanging in his throat immediately settled down.

It's okay, okay, it's not that something happened to Zhao Yin.

As long as Zhao Yin has nothing to do, then everything will be fine.

As soon as He Lanzhi breathed a sigh of relief, the official continued to throw thunder without any connection: "But the emperor is closely related to this matter."

"!!!" He Lanzhi almost couldn't catch his breath, his usually modest and elegant ink pupils were now full of worry, "What happened to Your Majesty? What is going on with this piece of paper?!"

"This paper was written by Master Wang." The official whispered in He Lanzhi's ear, "My lord, there are too many people here, and it's not convenient to talk to each other. I will tell you in private."

When He Lanzhi heard this, he immediately turned to those scholars whose faces were full of confusion and curiosity. His handsome face was full of helplessness and apology, "Gentlemen, I am afraid that the current exchange meeting will end early. I am sorry to let everyone go away for nothing. Once, if there is a chance next time, how about we continue our exchange? Please trouble everyone."

The scholars saw that Prime Minister He Lan did not put on airs of power and authority, and they liked him even more in their hearts, so they all bowed and said: "It is the honor of Xiaosheng and others to be able to talk to the lord, how dare you say it is troublesome. If the lord has It's urgent, Xiaosheng and others will stop disturbing and leave first."

"Go slowly." He Lanzhi nodded, watched the scholars walk out of the Imperial Academy, and immediately turned to look at the official who spoke with great concern, "What's going on here? Why did Mr. Wang write Give this to me? What does this have to do with the emperor?"

"It is said that Mr. Wang has embezzled a lot of public funds, so the emperor issued an edict early this morning to temporarily dismiss Mr. Wang from his position, and then sent people to Mr. Wang's mansion to thoroughly investigate his treasury. The result came out, what do you think?" The official side He turned sideways, avoiding Su Nuo's staring eyes on him, sneakily reached into He Lan's sleeve, and gestured with a finger, "This number."

"1 million taels of silver?"

"My lord, what you said...is too little!" The official laughed bitterly, "1000 million taels. It's not an antique or something like that."

He Lanzhi held his breath and couldn't help swallowing the saliva from the base of his tongue.

Mr. Wang is really capable of teaching him how to be a corrupt official. He, a prime minister who made his debut halfway through, did it... Poverty really limited his imagination.

"Master He Lan, now that Mr. Wang has been taken to prison by the people from the Ministry of Criminal Justice, he has been entrusted to a lot of people to barely send out such a piece of paper. How do you think he will be saved?"

"...Let me think about this matter carefully." He Lanzhi rubbed the center of his brows, planning to ease the official's anxiety for the time being.

Whether or not this corrupt official Wang can be saved depends on whether he has done anything to benefit the people before, and whether he is a talent with flaws that cannot hide his strengths.

Furthermore, even if he wants to save him, it depends on whether Zhao Yin will let him go or not.After all, this is the person Zhao Yin personally issued an order to arrest, and he can't just say hello to the Ministry of Punishment.

Before He Lanzhi put down his fingers rubbing the center of his brows, another person broke into the Imperial Academy.He Lanzhi raised his eyes and saw that it was his henchman who hurried over with a letter.

"My lord, there is an urgent report! Lord Sun has been dismissed and investigated, and His Majesty is sending people from the Ministry of Criminal Justice to his residence. Lord Prime Minister, Lord Sun begs you to protect him!"

Two consecutive officials of the Helan Party fell from the horse on the same day...

Something is wrong.

He Lanzhi frowned and thought.
