The way she handle evething
The Mandarins in the south all looked at each other and happily walked forward. Everyone thought that this trip was highly rewarded by Princess Man Tianyun herself, and she would definitely get a good deal. Man Tianyun signalled to Shen Tianfeng, who was standing beside him, to let him go inside to prepare a reward for the mandarins standing below. When Man Hengren looked at his royal sister, he was completely unaware of this great reward. Only when Man Tianyun mentioned it, he was startled to realise that he had not prepared gifts for the officials in the South. Although the first princess's reward is the same as the emperor's reward, after thinking about it, there is still a slight difference.
They brought a lot of wooden trays outside. Shen Tianfeng and a few other courtesans, even from a distance, it is clear that Man Tianyun's rewards for the other mandarins were all positive. The officials stood below and looked at each other, confident that this period had won a great bargain. Greed made them blind. No one saw the face of Man Tianyun, who had lost the smile before. Her eyes are hard, just a little attention will clearly see the anger and cruelty in her phoenix eyes. It's just that no one noticed. They would not have expected that the head princess would choose today's happy day to expose the greedy faces of those people.
But Governor He and a few others are still ecstatic. No one can think clearly that just in a few more minutes, they will not live to laugh anymore. She went down by herself, step by step. It seems that she is giving Governor He and his companions a chance to laugh a little more, before dying in the capital of Tiandu on such a happy day. When Man Tianyun stopped in front of Governor He, that was when Shen Tianfeng signalled for his soldiers to flood inside the great hall, control Governor He's people, and make them kneel.
Everyone suddenly looked at the scene below. Man Hengren also had to get up. He looked at his royal sister, not knowing what she was trying to do. Everyone panicked, but only Li Yan was still sitting on a wooden chair, watching the funny play. He fiddled with his precious glass of wine and took another sip. It's really good wine. Just a small sip can make others fall in love.
"Big sister, what is this?"
Man Hengren angrily looked at Man Tianyun. Did she know that the people she was oppressing were the servants of the court? If it weren't for them, how could we handle the remnants of the drought left behind? Man Tianyun slightly turned her head back. Phoenix eyes looked at Man Hengren for a moment but quickly turned away coldly. She did not pay attention to the angry face of the emperor but only bitterly looked down at the people of Governor He who were kneeling in front of her. Shen Tianfeng brought the wooden trays and respectfully walked to Man Tianyun's side. She took the handkerchief embroidered with silver thread and pulled it to the ground.
What was inside was not precious gold and silver, much fewer jewels and ivory, but only crumpled books piled up as high as a mountain. Man Tianyun took a few books, opened them, and threw them in front of Governor He and the mandarins managing Southern Tiandu.
"Look at the good work you do. The court opened the treasury to save the people from drought. I thought, "Why is there no progress?" You also swallowed very thickly. The treasury sent up to ten parts, and you swallowed up to nine. The rest is given to 30,000 people. How can that be enough? If I couldn't get these books, wouldn't you guys steal the relief funds, accumulating hundreds of thousands of taels?"
The faces of the governors of Ha were white without a drop of blood. Didn't they send someone to burn these things? How could it fall into the hands of Man Tianyun? A palace maid handed the manuscript copies of those books to Man Hengren, and the more he read, the angrier he became. Excellent, excellent! He also thought that the relief money was... Now, it is no longer important. It is already clear that his royal sister is a pure person. Man Hengren is also a little more comfortable because of this.
"I have merit in this matter. I leave everything to the royal sister to handle."
Although he didn't want the happy day to be filled with blood and blood, with Man Tianyun's personality, he is afraid everyone knows what will happen. They can only sigh. Throughout the capital of Tiandu, is there anyone who doesn't know what kind of woman Man Tianyun is?
"Prime Minister, what do you think about this?"
Suddenly, Man Tianyun turned to Li Yan sitting above. The phoenix eyes contained many thoughts, but they were unable to guess her mind. When Li Yan was called, he immediately lowered the wine glass in his hand and looked at the governor with the surname Ha and the group of people being suppressed. What a pity! Don't look at the prime minister like that. For the head princess to grasp the handle, it's because you guys don't have the skills. And people like you are just a bunch of useless people. He is a useless person. This prime minister cannot be saved, nor can he use it.
"Stealing so much relief money, what else? I see that these people have to cut off their heads in front of the people to show their prestige. And children, concubines, I think like this. Men were exiled to the border, while women were sold as slaves. As long as they can return the entire amount of aid they have stolen, it will not be too late to forgive sins."
"I didn't expect the prime minister to think like that. As expected, this princess can't think as thoughtfully as you."
Man Tianyun slightly raised the corner of her lips. She looked at Li Yan and said nothing more as if she agreed with him. All the people in the great hall got a chill. If the rulers of Tiandu were Man Tianyun and Li Yan, the emperor would not be able to help but suffer. Caught between two such cruel and cold-blooded people, it is also difficult for Manh Hoanh Nhan to want to live. But, no one dares to stand up and talk about this anymore. They understand that if they object, their fate will be no different from those who are kneeling under the great hall.
also because of this loss of inherent joy. Man Hengren rubbed his temples. He ordered them all to return. The Bishop took care of Manh Hoanh Nhan, whose thin and straight figure disappeared behind the canopy. The party was over, and Man Tianyun also saw that she didn't need to stay there anymore. She took Shen Tianfeng's hand, stood up, and left.
All of them are no longer in the main hall, and only Li Yan is still leisurely, not wanting to leave this place. No one knew that his face was filled with hatred. This dreadful woman! The old man cursed in his head. Originally, Li Yan always thought that Man Tianyun's younger brother was as stupid as the deceased first emperor. But he was wrong. Man Hengren can be a person who uses virtue to rule the country, but Man Tianyun is not! She does not use benevolence, she does not use virtue. What she used was coldness and cruelty to the bone. It looks like he can't continue with his previous plan. Confronting a woman like Man Tianyun, it was impossible to be like the previous emperor.
"Master, what do we do now? If you interrogate Governor He, will he reveal your name?"
The butler, who had been standing beside Li Yan all this time, only now dared to speak. He had followed Li Yan since he was a child, so he was given the privilege of calling Li Yan that. The story of Governor He and the mandarins in the South stealing aid money was directed by Li Yan in the back. The butler was afraid that if he revealed the prime minister's name, the little emperor would have an excuse to destroy the entire prime minister's residence. However, Li Yan is not very worried. He knew that Governor He had ten guts and did not dare to reveal his name.
"Negligent. Right now, we can't rely on those idiots anymore. This prime minister underestimated Man Tianyun. It looks like if we want to get hold of the Heavenly Capital, we'll have to change our plans. "
"Master, what should we do?"
"Go back and count. It's not safe here. "
Li Yan looked around, then quickly left the main hall.
