Staying In The East Palace, The Prince Is Actually A Girl!

Early the next morning, Qin Zhentian entered the Tianlong Palace.

"Long live my emperor, long live my emperor!"

Hundreds of ministers saluted in the palace.

Of course, those who can enter the Tianlong Palace are all important officials of the imperial court, starting from the fifth rank. It is not easy for those below the fifth rank to meet the emperor.

"No gifts."

Qin Zhentian said in a deep voice.

He sat on the emperor's throne, the vast emperor's aura enveloped the entire Tianlong Palace, and all the ministers looked respectful.

Qin Zhentian has been in power for fifty-three years, and his control over the court is still very strong. Under normal circumstances, there will be no problems at all.

It's just that he has a queen, six concubines, hundreds of concubines in the harem, and only one child, Qin Xuan.

Fortunately, Qin Zhentian had discovered the problem a long time ago and had made arrangements, thus maintaining the peace of the Tianlong Empire over the years.

"Do you have anything important to do, ministers?"

An old eunuch standing next to Qin Zhentian said in a sharp voice that this old eunuch was a super master at the level of Emperor Wu.

"Your Majesty, I have something to report—"

A minister stood up.

More than an hour passed, and finally no one among the ministers came forward. Normally, it would be time to withdraw from the court at this time.

"Dear gentlemen, since you are fine, I have something to do. According to the laws of our Tianlong Empire, how is corruption punished?"

Qin Zhentian said in a deep voice.

Zhao Chang, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, felt his heart tremble.

He didn't feel good.

"Tang Shangshu, you are the Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment. Please tell me."

Tang Jun, the Minister of Punishment, stood up.

He said solemnly: "Your Majesty, according to the laws of our Tianlong Empire, anyone who commits corruption will be fined one year's salary and demoted three levels."

"For corruption of 50,000 Tianlong coins, dismissed from office and jailed for one year."

"For corruption of 300,000 Tianlong coins, one will be imprisoned for ten years; for corruption of one million Tianlong coins, one will be imprisoned for three years and then be executed."

When Tang Jun said this, some people in the hall were frightened.

Given their status, there will certainly not be too little corruption.

You can't afford to lose that person if you are too greedy!

"continue!"

Qin Zhentian looked indifferent and authentic.

Tang Jun's heartbeat accelerated. Some people were afraid that they would be unlucky, and not only would they be unlucky, but their families would also be affected.

Tang Jun took a deep breath and continued: "The corruption exceeds 10 million Tianlong coins. The men in the family have abolished all their cultivation and are demoted to slaves, and the women in the family are in the Jiaofang Department."

"The corruption exceeded 100 million Tianlong coins, and the family was confiscated and the clan was destroyed."

Qin Zhentian nodded slightly: "Tang Shangshu, you are the Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishments. Can you tell me whether this law is harsh?"

Tang Jun shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, you are not too harsh. Only if you embezzle more than ten million will your family be affected."

“Only those with more than 100 million will confiscate their homes and exterminate their families, which is already very lenient.”

Many other ministers also nodded.

The laws of the Tianlong Empire are indeed not harsh, and the monthly salary of officials of the Tianlong Empire is not low.

"Snapped!"

Qin Zhentian slapped the table hard.

"I am so generous to you, but some of you don't care about your kindness and are madly embezzling national property!"

Many people in the hall were frightened.

Zhao Chang is not the only one who is corrupt.

"Shang Shu Zhao, tell me how much you have been greedy for."

Qin Zhentian's cold gaze fell on Zhao Chang.

Zhao Chang knelt on the ground with a thud: "Your Majesty, I am wronged, I am wronged! I have always been conscientious in my work and there is absolutely no corruption."

Qin Zhentian said coldly: "Then let me remind you that the amount you embezzled exceeds 500 million Tianlong coins."

"Enough to chop your whole family's heads off several times!"

"If you confess truthfully, I would like to show my respect to you and my ministers. I can leave some blood to your Zhao family and give you a happy life."

Zhao Chang was horrified.

The amount of his embezzlement did exceed 500 million Tianlong coins. Qin Zhentian would not have been able to say so accurately without evidence.

"More than 500 million embezzled?"

"Hey, I didn't see it!"

All the ministers were discussing secretly, and they were shocked.

"Your Majesty, have mercy. Your Majesty, have mercy."

"I was confused for a moment."

Zhao Chang kowtowed desperately and said, he knew he was finished. Although he had martial emperor level cultivation, what's the use?

Qin Zhentian is a powerful man at the level of Emperor Wu.

Moreover, in this Tianlong Palace, except for the emperor Qin Zhentian, the strength of everyone else does not exceed the Martial King level.

"Confused for a moment?"

"I'm afraid you are not confused for a moment, but you don't see me at all, and there is no law of our Tianlong Empire at all!"

Qin Zhentian said sharply.

"Come here, drag him down and chop him! The Shenwu Guards are dispatched to capture everyone in the Zhao family. If they encounter any resistance, they will be killed!"

Terrifying murderous intent filled the entire hall, and many people were frightened.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. Your Majesty, please forgive me."

"I'll report it."

"I know there are some people who are also very corrupt."

Zhao Chang shouted in horror.

Qin Zhentian looked at Zhao Chang with cold eyes. Zhao Chang suddenly couldn't open his mouth, and his strength was banned by Qin Zhentian.

If Zhao Chang is allowed to speak freely, he will definitely dig out a lot of moths, but the empire will probably also encounter great turmoil.

"puff!"

Zhao Chang was dragged down.

His head was quickly severed.

Qin Zhentian glanced across the entire hall.

He said coldly: "If you have any problems, you can confess to me, and I can give you a lighter punishment. Otherwise, don't blame me for being unkind!"

"Retreat!"

Qin Zhentian waved his sleeves and left.

…

Inside the Prince's Mansion.

"System, what power has entered my body?"

In the Prince's Mansion, Xiao Fan said in surprise.

He felt that an unknown force had just entered his body, and this force made his body warm.

The system said: "Host, you have gained some imperial luck."

"What the hell?"

Xiao Fan said doubtfully.

The system said: "A high-ranking official should have died because of you. The other party had the destiny of the empire, and part of the energy of the empire has been transferred to you."

"What exactly is imperial destiny?"

The system said: "Host, there are many officials who are very powerful, but the salary they receive does not match their strength."

"Do you think they all have a giving heart?"

"The higher the official position, the more imperial luck they can get, which can help them break through bottlenecks."

There was a look of surprise in Xiao Fan's eyes, so that's it.

"System, why didn't I get the luck of the empire?"

"I am the Prince's Attendant."

Xiao Fan asked doubtfully.

The system said quietly: "Only when you reach the fifth rank can you get the luck of the empire. The Prince's Attendant is only at the ninth rank, which is far behind."

"Host, I suggest you sign in within three days."

"The imperial luck you get is only temporarily in your body, and it will dissipate within three days if you don't use it."

Xiao Fan's eyes lit up: "System, what do you mean, these imperial fortunes can increase my chances of signing good things?"

"Yes."

Xiao Fan was overjoyed.

Two hours later, the news of Zhao Chang's death and the collapse of the Zhao family spread, and Xiao Fan got the news even in the Prince's Mansion.

"Sure enough, Zhao Chang is dead."

Xiao Fan murmured to himself, "I wonder if someone will die next."

Xiao Fan plans to sign in the day after tomorrow.

If a high-ranking official dies in the past two days, he will still get the luck of the empire, and he will have a higher chance of getting good things.
