Chapter 688 Yi Yin’s Matter

Above the court, the ministers are ranked.

The emperor has not come yet, but everyone has already come.

Because everyone knows that there will be a bloody storm today.

Zhao Gao stood on the corridor outside the palace and waited quietly.

Fifty thousand lieutenant troops were densely packed in the square outside the palace, surrounding the entire palace like an iron barrel.

The masters of Luowang have spread outside the palace, and eight first-class assassins are following Zhao Gao at this moment. The masters of the Yin Yang Family and the Public Loser Family are also in place.

As national preceptors, Dongjun, Yueshen and Gongshu were standing in the court, waiting.

Everything is waiting for someone.

From a long time ago to now, the person who has always been a formidable enemy in Zhao Gao's heart.

"Father, the time has come."

Dragon Girl walked to Zhao Gao with small steps and whispered a reminder.

"Yes, it's time. Tell Zhao Cheng and let him get ready."

"promise!"

Zhao Gao smiled slightly, this grudge should be settled. He hurriedly walked into the court hall, and as the chamberlain said "Your Majesty is here", Zhao Gao also returned to his seat.

Hu Hai sat in his seat, looked at the bustling court, and asked.

"Why is it so lively today?"

After Hu Hai took the throne, he soon became the master of the palace and handed over the government affairs to Zhao Gao. He hid in the harem and played with beauties every day.

"Your Majesty, Lord Hanyang has a distinguished status, so he must be cautious."

Zhao Gao came out and said with his hands. Hu Hai glanced at Zhao Gao. Although he knew the grudge between Luo Wang and Zhao Shuang, he didn't care.

Zhao Gao wanted to deal with Zhao Shuang because of grudges, while Hu Hai wanted to deal with him because of money.

Since he ascended the throne, he has spent a lot of money on military expansion, building palaces, riding and shooting, recruiting harem personnel, etc., and the wealth of the national treasury has been somewhat difficult to support.

Therefore, Hu Hai set his target on Zhao Shuang. After all, he is now one of the few wealthy Chehous in the empire.

"Summon Lord Hanyang to the palace."

Hu Hai's words, accompanied by the voice of the chamberlain, resounded throughout the palace.

Zhao Shuang's chariot took the time to enter the palace, and the ministers were waiting. This short time was quite long.

Finally, as the footsteps approached, the ministers' tight breaths relaxed slightly.

"I have met your Majesty!"

Zhao Shuang's voice was the same as before, not much different.

Many people in this palace have met Zhao Shuang. However, when they watched the Hanyang Lord hovering between Lu Buwei and Changping Lord, manipulating the situation, they mostly looked up.

Even Li Si, who is now the prime minister, was just a minor official back then.

Time flies, and those minor officials back then are now very important ministers in the court, but Zhao Shuang still looks like the same Zhao Shuang back then.

"Since I succeeded to the throne, I have tried to reflect on the governance of the previous kings and the system of prefectures and counties, which is actually the method of long-term peace and stability. Although Han Yangjun has great achievements, his fiefdom is very wide. The local officials often complain that they are not in good control, and there are also many censors. Admonishment. I think that for the sake of the empire, the title should be reduced. What do you think, Lord Hanyang?"

"My fiefdom is due to Yin Gong. I also often feel that the fiefdom is too wide and may disturb the governance of the empire. When the late emperor was still alive, I wrote several times. However, the late emperor was kind and cared about the elders of the clan, so he did not allow it. Today, your majesty wants to take it back. , I have no complaints.”

As soon as Zhao Shuang finished speaking, the ministers were murmuring in their hearts.

Zhao Shuang is so easy to talk to. Is he really old?

"Your Majesty, does he know why the empire's wealth is insufficient?"

Just when everyone was confused, Zhao Shuang's words set off a new storm.

Hu Hai asked with some doubts.

"Master Hanyang, please enlighten me!"

Zhao Shuang nodded, turned around, faced the courtiers, and said loudly.

"Your Majesty has a traitor around you!"

"who is it?"

Hu Hai asked from behind. Zhao Shuang looked at the palace. All the ministers had their heads lowered. Only Zhao Gao raised his head and looked at him.

"You, the Prime Minister on the right, Feng Quji, the Prime Minister on the left, Li Si, and the imperial censor Feng Jie, are guilty!"

Li Si was shocked. Not long after Zhao Shuang entered the court, he directly criticized the three princes. What did he want?

However, before he could react, the other two people had already fallen to their knees on the ground.

Zhao Gao squinted his eyes. Zhao Shuang had left the court for many years, but his power was still there.

"Your Majesty is young, and it is difficult to manage the affairs well. As the three princes, you are in the same position as the princes. Why do you do nothing and let the treacherous ministers cause trouble?"

"I will admit my guilt!"

Li Si held his breath and never knelt down. He just held his breath with a livid face.

Hu Hai on the throne looked confused, but Zhao Shuang wasn't done yet.

"Feng Chang, Wei Wei, Dian Ke, Da Zong Zheng... Dr. Sun Shutong, Dr. Fu Sheng... you all can be found guilty!"

Zhao Shuang went around and read the names of most of the courtiers in the court. Some of them knelt down to plead guilty, and some even stood firm like Li Si.

When Hu Hai saw Zhao Shuang interrogating the officials in the court, he felt a little unhappy and couldn't help but ask.

"Master Hanyang, who is the traitor you just mentioned? Why is there insufficient financial resources?"

Zhao Shuang turned around again and bowed his hands.

"Chen Sheng rose from Daze and went to Chendi; Tian Dan rebelled against Di County and captured Linji; Xiang Liang came out from Wuzhong and attacked Pengcheng. In the land of Guandong, rebels and thieves have risen in droves, and forty-five out of ten of the capitals in the world will be the capital. How can the empire’s finances be sufficient if it falls into the hands of these traitors?”

"What, didn't you say there are only sporadic bandits?"

Hu Hai looked confused and a little at a loss, and looked at Zhao Gao, but the other party was silent and just watched all this quietly.

"The world belongs to the people of the world. The treacherous minister Zhao Gao deceived the saints, killed the meritorious clansmen, and tyrannized the world. This is why Guizhou rebelled twice. Your majesty, for the sake of the Qin Dynasty and the plan of the world, Zhao Gao should be killed to bring peace to the world. Resentment."

Zhao Gao sneered in his heart and narrowed his eyes.

Zhao Shuang, have you finally spoken out?

Hu Hai, who was on the throne, changed his expression, became quite angry, and sneered.

"I thought Lord Hanyang had some great ideas, but it turns out he came here for me."

"Why does Your Majesty say that?"

In the palace, Zhao Shuang asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"Whatever Zhao Gao did to kill the hero's clan and tyrannize the world was all under my orders. This world belongs to me, and I can do whatever I want!"

Hu Hai was furious, and Zhao Gao was ready to take action.

Zhao Shuang! Do you think you are dealing with me and Luo Sheng? What you are dealing with is the Emperor!

"I was wrong."

However, Zhao Shuang's tone suddenly softened, making everyone a little confused, but what Zhao Shuang said next shocked everyone.

"It turns out that the fault lies with Your Majesty!"

All Hu Hai's anger burst out and he stood up, his eyes looking like they were about to spit out fire.

"presumptuous!"

Facing the emperor's wrath, Zhao Shuang in the palace was not afraid at all and pointed his finger in the court.

"Destroying the land of the former king is called disloyalty; betraying the trust of the former emperor is called unfilial; tyrannizing the people is called unkind; killing brothers is called unjust. What kind of face does such an unfaithful, unfilial, unkind, and unjust king have to live in? Above the temple.”

"Inverted!"

Hu Hai roared loudly, looking very scary. After inheriting the throne, he was so angry for the first time despite everything going well.

Outside the palace, armored soldiers were clustered; inside the palace, murderous intent overflowed.

Facing this overwhelming hostility, Zhao Shuang seemed unaware, his appearance remained the same, and he bowed his hands.

"Tai Jia is unruly and banishes Tong Gong. I can handle Yi Yin's affairs."
