MTL - The Reborn Noble Daughter

Chapter 482 482. Reveal

Emperor Qi was furious when he heard this, and then he said to Feng Jinxu.

“If you have any other discoveries, please let me know!”

"It's a private salt land. A piece of private salt land in Qingzhou has been occupied by Concubine Liu Guifei and the Sixth Prince for many years. I haven't found out how much profit they made from it. But judging from the age and the size of the private salt land, it's not possible. Less than ten million taels.”

As soon as these words came out, everyone took a breath of cold air.

Compared to the Wei family and the Ninth Prince, this amount of money is nothing, but compared to ordinary families, this amount of money is as terrifying as the sea.

 Private salt, like private iron and private soldiers, was as fearful to the emperor.

Dajin has always had a special salt department responsible for this matter. On the surface, it is not a place to make money, but because of its indispensability, this thing is more difficult to replace than food.

 The prices on the market have always been controlled by the government.

As soon as the talk of selfishness comes out, at best it is just greed for profit, but at worst it is an act that is harmful to the country and the people.

 The way Emperor Qi looked at Concubine Liu and the Sixth Prince was much colder than before.

The queen pretended to be surprised, but in her heart she wished that Emperor Qi would deal with their mother and son immediately, so that they could sit back and relax!

 “Say! Is this possible?”

 Long Wei was furious, and both the Sixth Prince and Concubine Liu fell to their knees, sweat dripping from their foreheads.

In normal times, he would definitely have retorted. Even if there was only a slight chance, he would muddy the water and maybe he could get away.

But now, the people responsible for managing the private salt land have been arrested as "congratulatory gifts". Who knows what else has been discovered behind the scenes. I thought that if I could stop the matter until now, at most I would lose the glory and wealth in front of me. As long as you can save your life, you will still have a chance in the future.

So he hurriedly admitted his mistake and immediately started crying.

"Father, please forgive me, father! I was also blinded by lard for a moment, and that's why I had such a stupid idea. As for the private salt land, I know nothing about it!"

He glanced at Concubine Liu, and it was obvious that she was giving up her mother to protect her son.

Although there was a hint of despair in Concubine Liu's eyes, she soon understood and took all the blame on herself.

"Your Majesty, everything was done by my concubine, and the Sixth Prince did not know about it. The food and clothing expenses in the harem these years, although there are regulations, are always not enough, especially compared with the late Concubine Wei. Get up, my concubine...I am too shabby. You also know that I have no one in my family, so I can't do anything in the past. If I don't have any money in the harem, I'm afraid I won't be alive now. Please forgive me, Your Majesty. crime!"

 After speaking, he kowtowed heavily several times and looked at Emperor Qi sadly.

After all, there was a relationship between husband and wife. Although Emperor Qi hated them for doing this behind their backs, he would not really kill them.

The scene of the ninth prince committing suicide by taking poison was still vivid in his mind. At this moment, another son was about to be killed. Emperor Qi admitted that he had softened his heart.

 The sixth prince was the most observant and immediately cried out.

“Father, mother and concubine have never fought for fame and wealth in the harem. Everything they do is for the children and ministers to live a better life. If the father wants to blame, then blame the children and ministers.”

"No, no, no, it's my fault. It's my fault. If your Majesty wants to blame me, just blame me. I'm willing to die to apologize!"

 After saying that, I wanted to rush towards the stone steps. If it weren't for the quick eyesight and quick hands of the palace maid next to me, I might have died. Emperor Qi could not bear it. Indeed, he had not paid much attention to the mother and son in these years. The people in the palace who worshiped those who were superior and those who were subordinate to others had a hard time living without money to support them.

 He sighed deeply and was about to say something when suddenly the man in the box sat up in shock.

Lin Wang kicked the man out of the box in a chain reaction, and he rolled to the stone steps.

Su Cheng was the closest and immediately pressed him to the ground, but his face was really exposed.

Even under the moonlight, everyone could see that this man and the Sixth Prince were exactly the same.

The queen exclaimed and immediately asked what was going on!

"Who is this person! How come he looks exactly like Xiao Liu! Could it be that... I remember that Concubine Liu was the sixth prince who was born prematurely! You... are not confusing the royal bloodline!"

Although the sentences are incoherent, every pause is just right.

Everyone present who is not a fool can understand that the sixth prince is not the son of the emperor, but the son of this man. Who is the person behind it? He would reveal this secret openly in front of the palace.

This is not only the crime of deceiving the emperor, but also throwing Emperor Qi's dignity and face to the ground!

 The prince felt both relief and regret at the moment, and his emotions were very complicated.

This sixth brother used to help him do a lot of things, but he didn't expect that the two of them were not blood siblings!

If we were talking about the private salt land and misappropriation of materials just now, there was still a chance of survival. Now that his identity has been exposed, I am afraid that no one in Qingzhou or anyone related to this matter will be able to escape the blame.

The man realized that his identity had been revealed, glanced at Concubine Liu, bit his tongue and committed suicide.

As long as he dies, everything can be pushed to him.

 He is willing to do this for Concubine Liu and the Sixth Prince.

Unexpectedly, Su Cheng was unable to catch him because he moved so quickly. By the time he caught him, his veins had popped out and he was dead.

 It was a wonderful palace banquet, but several people have died by now.

But a series of things happened so fast that they just wanted to cover their ears and close their eyes to pretend they didn't know anything, but it was too late. They could only kneel in the corner tremblingly, hoping that Emperor Qi would forget their existence.

 The man died so quickly that Concubine Liu and the Sixth Prince did not even react.

Concubine Liu subconsciously wanted to shout out, but was tightly grabbed by the Sixth Prince. She couldn't bear the blow for a while and fainted.

 One death and one faint, given the circumstances present, there may still be a chance for the Sixth Prince.

So he immediately opened his mouth to argue.

"Father, there must be someone behind this. Who is this person? I have never seen it before! Why does he look so similar to me? My mother and concubine have not gone out since they entered the palace. How could they have an affair with an outsider?" What! The Queen said she was heartbroken, "This is going to kill me and my mother-in-law. Are you afraid that I will reveal the Pang family's occupation of farmland in Xuzhou and the death of farmers? That's why you have to strike first!" "

"Stop talking nonsense! The Pang family is very disciplined. When did they invade fertile land and force farmers to death?"

The queen was suddenly bitten back by him, and her tone of voice suddenly rose.

The sixth prince was really powerful. He changed the target of the attack with just one sentence. Even Emperor Qi frowned slightly and began to think about all these things.
