Chapter 126: The Limited Time Return of the Best Relatives
"Please wait a moment, sir. I will ask someone to lead the way for you. Please come this way."
Huang Yunqi, who traveled far to the capital, followed the palace maid who led the way with a worried look on her face.
Thinking of the things she had heard along the way, she felt uneasy. She thought that what the man said was true. The Bai family in Xining claimed to be the relative of the current empress, and it was not just a random claim, but a fact.
But, thinking about the hard life the people of Xining City have had in the past two years, she gritted her teeth and thought that since it has come to this, she might as well speak out, no matter what the current emperor thinks.
It is said that local officials are the parents of the people, but I am too incompetent and too cowardly as an official. The Bai family who went to Xining to "do evil" and are worse than bandits are too hateful and too bullying.
Clay people still have some temper, so that's it, go away!
Huang Yunqi soon arrived at the destination. After being summoned to pay homage, she looked up and saw the young and brilliant emperor of their Great Yan.
Looking at the righteous emperor in front of her, her heart suddenly felt at ease, and she listed the crimes of that group of people one by one.
It turned out that after her aunt died, the group of people were afraid of her and ran away immediately after they were freed.
Later, he learned that she had proclaimed herself emperor. He wanted to establish a relationship with her, but because he was extremely afraid of her, he did not dare to go north.
Later, she didn't know what they were thinking, but a group of people walked towards the northwest, taking out old things that she had left at her home when she was a child to cheat her.
Most of the people along the road believed it, and Chidai... Hey, Chidai, are you demented?
And Bai Jin, have you forgotten how those debt collectors in the Bai family treated you and me when we were young? You didn't even stop your wife and let her go to help.
That's a bottomless pit!
No wonder the financial reports from your area are getting less and less every year. How can it be good if you support those scums who are involved in pornography and gambling?
So confused!
Yan Yu Ni suppressed her anger and listened to her continue speaking.
Huang Yunqi: "They received offerings from the people all the way to Xianglian. Later, because Xianglian was a place with many aristocratic families,
Yan Yu Ni stretched out her hand, palm facing forward, turned her head and said: "I know this, no need to elaborate"
"So, they ran away to Xining and... settled down there?"
Seeing her nod, Yan Yu Ni wanted to beat Chi Dai to death. What are you doing? Just confiscate their house. What they have done is enough to be confiscated several times.
Huang Yunqi looked at the young emperor's angry expression and knew that she was a monarch who could distinguish right from wrong. She wiped away two tears silently and said in a choked voice: "Yes, our area is full of good people, and the people are simple and honest. You know that."
Thinking of the assassinations she encountered in Xining City, Yan Yuni swallowed hard and thought: I really don’t know this. Anyway, when I was there three years ago, I didn’t feel any pure... simplicity at all.
carry on.
Huang Yunqi may have thought of the miserable experience of serving that family like a slave for the past two years, and she could not help but began to tell about the evil deeds of this group of people with tears and snot.
“Lazy by nature”
"Luxurious and extravagant"
“It also leads others astray”
“We didn’t have any casinos in Xining originally. But this year, that young lady from her family, Bai Ji… Oh my, ahhhhh, it’s so unfair, so unfair.”
“Not only have they swallowed up our people’s food, money, and land, but they’ve also been ahhhhhh, ahhhhhh, ahhhhhh, ah——————————”
Seeing her crying like a police siren, Yan Yu Ni felt a headache and couldn't help asking again, "Who sent you to be the county magistrate?"
The man was so frightened by the sudden words that he couldn't recover for a moment and answered stupidly: "Sent by the late emperor."
After she finished speaking, she suddenly thought of the words she had overheard the people in the Bai Mansion say before, and shuddered. She thought to herself, no way, am I going to lose my head now? Does the emperor in the capital really like to collect heads?
She could sum up what she overheard in one sentence: the current emperor lost his father at a young age and was neglected in his youth, so he was made a vassal king before he was twenty.
If it were not for the will of heaven, I am afraid this throne would not be the current emperor.
Therefore, the present emperor hates the late emperor and is extremely disgusted with him.
Thinking of this, she knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, although I am guilty... guilty... guilty, the people of Xining will not be harmed. The people of Xining have fallen into the hands of a den of thieves."
"The people of Xining are now complaining and their lives are in dire straits, Your Majesty."
Sin, your sin? Your biggest sin is poor governance. You didn't get rid of these unruly people earlier, and allowed them to run rampant and cause trouble to the people!
After Yan Yu Ni heard what she said in one breath, she slammed the table and shouted: "Why did the court send you to be the county magistrate? There are troops stationed in Xining, and you also hold the power of the military commander. The generals have to listen to you."
"How amazing you are!"
"And what happened? You are such a powerful person, but you flatter others! Is this how you become an official in the imperial court?"
"Why not just copy them on the spot? They were allowed to harm the people for two years. This is really, really ridiculous."
"Whose official are you?"
"Is it from the Bai family?"
Huang Yunqi was a little frightened. When she heard the question, she shook her head with lifeless eyes.
"The power given by the court is just for show, don't you know how to use it?" Suppress with force, kill them directly, that's it!
I don't feel sad, I have a clear conscience.
Ha, she forcibly robbed the men of the people, and later even robbed the husbands of the people, causing all the men in the family to run to her place cursing and leaving their homes. Yan Yu Ni complained in her heart while listening.
What? Some…some went up the mountain and became bandits. Yes…some did. Where there is oppression, there is resistance.
It's still a small problem, but her mother's problem is big. Have you heard of the saying that kings, princes, generals and ministers are of different species? Do you know about Chen She's family?
If you don't handle it properly, the dynasty will be overthrown. This is no small matter and cannot be taken lightly.
Haha, I am still thinking about how to withdraw the troops. Ha, let me first think about how to govern Dayan.
Sitting high on the dragon throne in the capital, he was deceived like a fool.
This is still a small matter. Would it be considered a big deal if all parties revolted and then attacked fiercely?
Let me tell you, by then, it's all over.
Yan Yu Ni spat at herself in her heart and widened her eyes, "Why don't you go and wipe out those 'real bandits' who are committing crimes in the city? Instead, you go and wipe out those who were forced to go up the mountain."
"So, this is how you use the soldiers, huh?"
"Yes or no, please tell me clearly, don't bow your head, and answer me directly."
Huang Yunqi quickly shook her head to deny it, "Huh? No, no, no, we were also forced to do so." Seeing that His Majesty was about to say something else, she hurriedly continued, "Your Majesty, we are just going through the motions."
"We have no choice but to listen to the Bai group. After all, they came all the way here, saying that they are your closest relatives. The people around us all believe it. If we are disrespectful to them, the people around us will drown us with spit. Besides, they are not completely brainless. They only harm the people in our city. Few people in the surrounding cities know their true identities."
“Even if I knew, I wouldn’t believe it.”
"After hearing and seeing the ugly faces of these people, they even made excuses for them, saying that we didn't take good care of them."
"How else can we take care of them? Their Bai Mansion is so luxurious that it can even rival the Xianglian Palace."
Yan Yuni was even more annoyed when she heard this, "Is the Xianglian King I conferred just for show?"
Huang Yunqi hurriedly defended Chi Dai, "No, no, no, we have to thank King Xianglian for his many relief efforts over the past two years, otherwise the people of Xining might have really starved to death."
Thank you, I didn't hear you wrong. Yan Yu Ni laughed and shouted: "Isn't this just encouraging their arrogance?"
"A bunch of smart-assed, extremely stupid people"
"Such a big thing, and no one reported it. People just write useless things and send them in every day. Ha." Yan Yuni felt that she was a huge joke, dazzled by this virtual prosperity.
She sneered, "So you indulge any random person who tries to claim kinship with the royal family, to the point where they become lawless and bring disaster to the country and the people."
Isn't it true? But, what I heard is clearly true. She took out the ring that she had stolen from the Bai Mansion with a guilty conscience, raised her hands above her head, and said respectfully: "This is a token that those people often take out."
Yan Yu Ni narrowed her eyes and impatiently directed Ye Yu to bring it up.
She sat back in the chair, crossed her legs sullenly, turned her head and looked away, not wanting to look at this embarrassing thing.
He patted his chest and muttered: I'm so angry.
