I, the strongest poisoner, am called the living king of hell by the empress

Chapter 26



The emperor was very angry, but the emperor was very angry.

Wu Zhao was a little moved, "But if you do this, do you know that you will bear the infamy of the people?"

Gao Yang looked righteous, and said to the officials, "It's just a little infamy, but it can save thousands of people, so what's the harm?"

"The family style of the Duke of Dingguo has always been like this!"

Gao Feng's eyes were stunned.

For a while, all the officials looked over with admiration.

"Censor Gao is a great talent!"

"Censor Gao is really a role model for our generation."

A burst of discussion sounded, with admiration.

Only Shangguan Wan'er's mouth twitched.

All the officials believed that Gao Yang was selfless and righteous, but she didn't believe it at all.

Yan Zheng bowed to Gao Yang and then bowed to Wu Zhao.

"Your Majesty, Yan Zheng, has wrongly accused Censor Gao and made me speak nonsense. I beg Your Majesty to punish me."

For a moment, all the ministers were shocked.

Yan Zheng was a tough and upright person, and the whole court knew it, but now he was willing to bend to Gao Yang and ask the empress for punishment.

This was incredible!

Wu Zhao was also very happy. This was the first time she felt so happy since she ascended the throne.

She looked at the officials and said, "Of course I have to punish you. You are all well-read and are my ministers, but no one has seen the way to quell the disaster. On the contrary, you have repeatedly impeached me."

"Censor Yan Zheng, General Wang Zhong, and Minister of Rites Song Li will be fined two months' salary to serve as a warning to others!"

Faced with the punishment, Wang Zhong and Song Li could only accept it even if they were unwilling.

Then, Wu Zhao looked at Gao Yang with her phoenix eyes.

"Gao Yang, you have made great contributions to pacifying disasters and lowering grain prices. What rewards do you want?"

Gao Yang bent down and said unceremoniously, "I want to be in charge of the Ministry of Revenue and serve the country."

When these words came out, Wu Zhao frowned.

"Ministry of Revenue?"

According to her thinking, Gao Yang should be a secretary of the Central Secretariat with such performance, and stay by her side forever, governing the country and bringing peace to the world.

She didn't expect that Gao Yang would actually enter the Ministry of Revenue.

Gao Feng was also stunned.

This bastard, why did he come to the Ministry of Revenue instead of being a secretary of the Central Secretariat?

Wu Zhao hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Gao Yang, the grandson of Duke Dingguo, has made great contributions to pacifying the grain prices in Linjiang City. He is granted the position of Deputy Director of the Ministry of Revenue and retains the position of Supervisory Censor!"

"Cui Xinghe has made great contributions to pacifying the grain prices in Qingshui City and is promoted to Secretary of the Central Secretariat!"

Gao Yang's face lit up.

The Deputy Director of the Ministry of Revenue is a sixth-rank official in Daqian, not a small one!

"Your Majesty, I, Gao Yang, thank you!"

On the other side, Cui Xinghe also bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I, Cui Xinghe, thank you!"

He didn't expect that this Zhongshu Sheren would still fall into his hands.

But Cui Xinghe felt deeply humiliated, because it was Gao Yang who didn't want it that fell into his hands.

After the morning court, all the officials focused their attention on Gao Yang.

Everyone knew that today, the words of Gao Yang, the eldest son of the Dingguo Mansion, in the Golden Palace would spread throughout Chang'an.

The former dandy became a unicorn in one day.

Cui Xinghe looked at the eyes of the officials and clenched his fists.

"One day, I will prove to the world that Cui Xinghe of the Cui family is no worse than you, Gao Yang."

He swore secretly in his heart, and then walked away.

At this time, Gao Feng came to Gao Yang's side, his face gloomy.

"Zhongshu Sheren, why not?"

The sudden voice startled Gao Yang.

Gao Tianlong also came over calmly and said, "I know you are good at business, but this is a minor skill after all, not as good as the people around the empress."

"This move is a bit confused."

Gao Yang hurriedly said, "Father, Grandpa, you misunderstood. The reason why I entered the Ministry of Households is purely because my father is the Minister of the Ministry of Households, and the Shangshu is old and seriously ill. As the saying goes, it is easier to get things done with connections. The child can walk sideways in the Ministry of Households. Entering the Ministry of Households is the right way."

Gao Feng's eyes widened.

Gao Tianlong's mouth twitched.

The two of them stared at Gao Yang's handsome face with wide eyes.

Is this reason really so simple?

"Besides, the Secretary of the Central Secretariat represents the face of His Majesty, so he cannot act recklessly. I am a rather absurd person, and I like to go to elegant places to listen to songs on weekdays. It's okay once, but if I go there frequently, I will be impeached by the Censorate. Father and grandfather are both experienced people, so they should understand."

Gao Yang glared at Gao Feng and Gao Tianlong, with a look of you know what I mean.

Gao Feng's eyes widened.

Gao Tianlong's eyes widened too.

So it's because of the brothels in Chang'an that the Secretary of the Central Secretariat is no longer wanted?

Is there such a talent in the old Gao family?

The blood pressure of both of them rose together!

"Evil son!"

"You can't escape a beating today!"

Gao Feng roared first.

Gao Yang realized something was wrong and ran away. Gao Feng

Take a step and chase.

Gao Yang was confused. Did he say the wrong thing?

The literati are arty, but the generals are more direct. Why are they so angry?

Behind him, Gao Tianlong shook his head.

"What's the point of chasing after this? Just go back home and beat him up!"

"..."

Qianqing Palace.

Shangguan Wan'er saluted Wu Zhao and said, "Wan'er has met Your Majesty."

Wu Zhao looked at Shangguan Wan'er with a noble face, "Tell me everything about Linjiang City, bit by bit. I want to know everything."

Shangguan Wan'er was not surprised and told everything that happened in Linjiang City.

After listening to this, Wu Zhao looked complicated.

She said to herself, "He planned the strategy thousands of miles away. From the first day he arrived in Linjiang City, he planned everything that followed. This Gao Yang is really a talent."

Wu Zhao was amazed, his eyes unabashedly admiring.

Then, Wu Zhao looked at Shangguan Wan'er and said, "Wan'er, what do you think of Gao Yang?"

When Shangguan Wan'er heard this, she did not hide the disgust in her eyes, "Although this person has amazing talents, he is also both good and evil, and he is very bold!"

"Oh, bold? Where to start?"

Wu Zhao was curious.

"I was following him, and he dared to hint that Master Du would give gifts. And I seriously suspect that he deliberately tricked Master Du."

Shangguan Wan'er told the tea box that Du Jiang handed over, as well as her suspicions, and said regretfully.

"It's a pity that Mr. Du has nothing to do but only reads the books of sages. I'm afraid he's still in the dark now!"

The corners of Wu Zhao's lips curled up, but she said disapprovingly, "There are no businessmen in the world who are not traitors, and there are no officials who are not corrupt. What's more, Gao Yang gave Du Jiang a share of his political achievements. This return gift is nothing."

"I am not afraid of people with great talents who are greedy, let alone lustful. What I am afraid of is that they have no weaknesses."

"Only when you have weaknesses can you control them and use them for me."

Shangguan Wan'er gritted her teeth and said, "Your Majesty, this is not the only bold thing about Gao Yang... He also wants to see my legs."

A surprised smile appeared on Wu Zhao's face. She looked at Shangguan Wan'er, who had a graceful figure and a cold and aloof face.

Sweeping down, the two long legs are straight and slender.

She smiled and said, "This Gao Yang is indeed quite bold...but not just for you."

"Since I ascended the throne, he is the only one who dares to openly look at my legs in the court!"

Shangguan Wan'er was shocked when she heard this.

"What?"

"Is this Gao Yang openly admiring His Majesty's legs? Is he so cowardly as to be a leopard?"

Shangguan Wan'er said excitedly: "This is like gouging out his eyes!"

Wu Zhao walked to the window and overlooked the entire Daqian Palace. She said calmly, "It doesn't matter. Who doesn't the empress want to conquer?"

"But who can conquer it?"

Wu Zhao put his hands behind his hands, wearing a dragon robe and a look of nobility and disdain on his face.
