Chapter 1

The capital of Huayan state, Shangjing, is in the imperial city.

The young emperor Yanfeng, with a gloomy face, waved and swept a pile of memorials on the desk to the ground. He knelt in the court and shivered. In the face of the thundering emperor, no one dared to make a sound.

The Prime Minister Ning Zezhi knelt on the ground, and a pair of long wings on the official hat quivered with fear. He muttered in a low voice: "the emperor, please take care of the dragon body. I beg the emperor to leave the corruption case of Zhuang Cheng, the minister in charge of the criminal department, to the old minister! "

Yan Feng shook his broad sleeve robe and roared: "it's not a day or two since he was honest and corrupt. Who knows except me in the capital? Which one doesn't know? However, none of the officials, such as Er, reported it. If it wasn't for this time that people were killed, I dare not think about how long it would take for a bug like him to lurk around me. "

Yan Feng's hand trembled slightly because of his anger: "don't the prime minister know about his corrupt practices? You lead the salary of the court, but you don't work well for the court. I'm so disappointed! only. This time, I will personally supervise and examine this case. Tomorrow, you and I will go to seal up the villa house together. I will take this opportunity to straighten out the court order! "

Yan Feng leaves his silent ministers and rushes away. He angrily drove back to the harem.

The emperor's concubine chided the cloud like a weak willow supporting the wind and stepped out to take over. She was dressed in a pink silk dress with large sleeves, and the translucent dress was embroidered with peonies. The brown broad edge leader embroidered the delicate cloud pattern with gold wire. The neckline is slightly outside and half over the shoulder, the fragrant shoulder is half exposed, and the red body is wrapped around the chest.

A string of embroidered flowers with pearls around the corner bring out the slender waist, and the jadeite ring on the corner makes a tinkling sound. The Golden Rose skirt under the corner was dragged on the ground, swaying left and right on the bright marble floor with her steps. In the walking room, a pair of delicate and small pink embroidered shoes with phoenix head occasionally show the skirt.

Chiyun Ping's hair is high and tied up in a chignon near Zhaoyun. There is a gold hairpin with a red gem on it. There is a peony flower on the slant hairpin of the right ear, which reflects the peony on her embroidered robe. There is a peach hair hairpin on the left sideburns, with a long gold spike and a tourmaline. A golden comb in the shape of an inverted crescent fixed the tied hair at the back of the head, and a row of red coral beads under the comb swung slightly. She had jewel earrings on her ears that were long and shoulder long, which set off her small face and sharp chin. Looking far and near, it's amazing!

Chiyunping is the most favored concubine in the imperial city of Shangjing. In addition to her good face, she has a distinguished family background. Her father chided Yunnan. Because of his war achievements, the crown prince granted the title when he was in office. Now, he is the prince of Yan, a few princes outside Huayan's clan.

Chiyunping's younger brother chiyunyuexuan became the general of the auxiliary state at a young age by virtue of his cultural and military skills. Their family has been defending the territory for the royal family from generation to generation, and they have also enjoyed the Royal grace and power.

Yanfeng quickly picked up chiyunping, who was going to kneel and salute, and gently stroked her white and greasy peach blossom face and helped her into Minghui palace.

Minghui palace is not only the dormitory of chiyunping, but also the place where Yanfeng goes most. Because the imperial concubine chided Yunping and was favored, it was built in an extremely luxurious way. The palace was well arranged and the ambulatory was long and winding. In the murmuring stream under the pavilion, brocade scales like weaving and auspicious birds shuttle. The rockery in the distance is full of flowers, and the flower bed nearby is full of different flowers. In the middle of it, there is the sound of silk and bamboo on the ear, and there is a faint fragrance in the nose. The whole palace is like heaven and earth.

However, chiyun Ping, who is the imperial concubine, also has troubles. Three years after the death of the queen, Yanfeng has not granted her the title of queen, which makes chiyun Ping a little angry, but he dare not ask for the title easily.

Chiyunping, with the help of the palace maids, carefully took down the Tongtian crown on the head of Yanfeng, removed the crimson Dragon Robe from his body, and replaced him with a comfortable silk palace dress.

Chiyun Ping has a pair of watery peach blossom eyes. She looks at the emperor in front of her with shame. Yan Feng stands with his hand in his hand. His figure is majestic, with a sharp face. Under the frown of deep meditation, a pair of dark pupils are suffused with quiet light. The thoughtful look makes his handsome face look more cool and cool. He is born with a king's momentum and oppresses people all around him!

Chiyun Ping sees Yanfeng distracted, and she bashes him with her shoulder, saying: "Emperor Don't think about other women here! " Yan Feng is slow to cross the God, and embraces and rebukes cloud Ping into his mind: "I don't think of others except for Ping'er! I'm just thinking about the troubles in the court. " Two people depend on each other, saying endless whispers.

The next day, he was in Shilang's house of the Ministry of punishment. Yanfeng personally supervises the officials who are busy in and out, and arranges the checked materials into boxes and pastes seals.

The number of sealed boxes is comparable to half of the state treasury. Yan Feng's hand clapped heavily on the table: "a little servant of the Ministry of punishment, unexpectedly, is rich enough to rival the country. I don't know how many courtiers there are in the court? Corrupt officials have to live up to their deaths. Not killing them is not enough to calm people's anger! Immediately drag it out and make a decision. All the men in the house were sent to the frontier to be soldiers, and all the women were prostitutes. All servants in the mansion, who are implicated in the case, are to be prosecuted. Those who have nothing to do with the case shall be sold as official slaves, and the silver obtained shall be charged into the State Treasury together with the seized articles. "

From time to time, the bodyguards who executed Zhuang Cheng come back. The bodyguards who took part in the seizure also accompanied a group of maids who had been examined, passing by Yanfeng. When they saw the emperor, they all knelt down and saluted.The fate of these maids is much better than that of the women's family of the dealer. Originally, I was a slave. I just sold it to another family. Unlike Zhuang Cheng's wife, concubine and daughter, all of them have to be sent to the army as prostitutes, which is quite cruel punishment for the women of the official family.

Yan Feng glanced at the maids who were kneeling on the ground and waved to the guards to take them to the slave market for sale. At this time, a little girl with a green coat and a white skirt cried out in a sharp voice: "I have something to report. The housewife of the villa pretends to be a servant girl and wants to escape punishment! Ask the emperor to see in the servile maidservant to report meritorious duty, from light hair falls servile maidservant She turned and pointed to a 16-7-year-old girl in pink kneeling in the back: "she is the daughter-in-law of corrupt official Zhuang Cheng."

Yan Feng angrily walked over and dragged the girl in the back row to the front. A big hand pinched her delicate chin, forced her eyes, and squeezed out a cold sentence between her lips and teeth: "is that what the girl said true?" There was a flash of panic in the girl's eyes, and soon the bottom of her eyes was calm: "the maid is not the daughter-in-law of the dealer. When I was young, I was sold to the dealer. I always worked as a slave and was only responsible for doing some rough work in the kitchen. "

Yan Feng's suspicious eyes swept over the girl's dirty face. Her delicate, palm sized face, though stained with black pot smoke, showed a kind of aura. Yan Feng suddenly gave birth to an impulse to clean her face and see clearly. Just for a moment, Yanfeng returned to normal, cold voice without a trace of emotion: "pull down, with other women's families, send to the army for prostitutes."

The young girl refuses to accept, struggling to argue: "all say that the emperor of Hua Yan is a generation of Emperor Ming, how can we condemn people without asking for anything Yan Feng's face was expressionless and his voice was cold: "I am the son of heaven, and I have the right to decide anyone's fate. And, no reason! " The young girl calmly stood up and scolded, "faint king." She stopped arguing and was pushed out by the bodyguard.

Yan Feng angrily slaps the broad palm on the stone table: "bold and cheap maidservant, I'll drag it down and chop it." Another girl in a little pink and blue coat, kneeling and climbing to the foot of the flame, said in a trembling voice, "wait a minute. The emperor is calm. Maidservant can prove that she is not the daughter-in-law of the banker. Maidservant and she do some chores in the kitchen together, all of which are rough servant girls. "

The young emperor was furious. He had just been scolded by a servant of a sinful minister's family. There was another one here to prove his innocence. What's the matter with this world? Shall his majesty be swept before all? "Yan Feng sinks a voice to roar a way:" want to dare to make false card recklessly, cut down even you at the same time

The servant girl who reported at first pointed to the servant girl in the pink and blue jacket because she was afraid of being inspired. "Picking mulberry, you have been sold by her, right? We all know that Murong Zhining is the child's daughter-in-law of that silly son of the dealer. And she is not satisfied with being a daughter-in-law to a fool, luring her future husband, Gongzhuang Cheng, and I have met her! " The maid named Caisang said fiercely: "I only know that you are envious of Zhining and Caiqin all the time You're bleeding! "

Yan Feng's eyes flashed with a smile of schadenfreude. He wanted to see how the little girl who dared to call him fatuous and ate bear heart and leopard gall could prove her innocence?

Yan Feng looks up at Murong Zhining who kneels down on the ground again: "you mean you are not the daughter-in-law of the banker? The names of servant girls are all flowers, but your name is so unique? A listen is the future hostess of the banker. You are not only deceiving the emperor, but also shameless. You have been cheating with your husband. It's just outrageous. I don't want to stay with a dirty woman like you for a while. Come on, drag it down and cut it. Don't dirty my eyes! "
