Chapter 34 Yanwu Secret Guard
"Heh heh heh... Eunuch Lu is joking, you are a celebrity around the emperor, I don't dare to ask you to apologize!"

Yu Qian sneered again and again.

"I hope the Prime Minister will put the overall situation first!"

Lu Hao bowed again.

"Eunuch Lu, this is the list of donations and the property. We ministers also donated ten taels of silver, which is the most."

Yu Qian said seriously.

What?Twelve?

The Prime Minister of the Great Yan Empire only donated ten taels. Isn't this because he is sincerely making fun of me?
Lu Hao really couldn't laugh or cry.

"In this case, I can only report the truth to the emperor."

Lu Hao moved out the emperor to suppress him.

"What's going on? Are you trying to scare me with the emperor? Even if the emperor comes, he won't force us to donate, right?"

Yu Qian suddenly became angry.

"This is a fundraiser, so others have to be willing. Could it be that Eunuch Lu wants to force us to donate?"

"Yes, isn't this forced buying and selling? How can there be such truth?"

"Being able to donate three to five taels is our limit. Our salary is not high to begin with!"

"Yes, we have nothing to lose. Where can we get money to donate?"

A group of ministers behind him immediately booed.

Lu Hao frowned slightly and glanced at the group of ministers.

"Vice Commander Yan, write down the names of all the ministers present today."

Lu Hao ordered coldly.

When the ministers heard this, their expressions changed suddenly and they froze on the spot.

"Eunuch Lu, what do you mean?"

Yu Qian shouted loudly.

"It's not interesting. I just write down today's situation and let the emperor make a decision!"

Lu Hao sneered.

"Eunuch Lu, don't think that just because you are a popular figure around the Emperor, you can confuse the public and confuse right and wrong?"

"What a villain! Why is there such a villain around the emperor!"

"This kind of villain should be killed! Let me tell you! Let's read a book about him and see what the emperor will do."

All the ministers accused Lu Hao one after another and wanted to bite him to death.

"Jianghuai County has been hit by natural disasters for three consecutive years, and today it is experiencing a flood that has never happened in a century. People on both sides of the Taiwan Strait have been killed and injured countless times, and mourning is everywhere. You ministers, without thinking about the country and the country, are still talking nonsense here. You are really shameless!"

Lu Hao also yelled angrily.

"Eunuch Lu, how dare you curse others?"

Yu Qian pointed at him angrily.

"Why are you being scolded? As the prime minister of the empire, you actually donated ten taels of silver. Shouldn't you be scolded?"

Lu Hao sneered again and again and said sarcastically: "On behalf of the people affected by the disaster in Jianghuai County, I thank you! Thank you, the Prime Minister, for your ten taels of silver!"

Yu Qian's old face turned red, his beard and hair were flaring with anger, and his teeth were clenching.

"Vice Commander Yan, spread the story of the Prime Minister's donation of ten taels of silver. Let's see how thick-skinned this Prime Minister is!"

Lu Hao said loudly.

"Yes!"

Vice Commander Yan responded loudly.

The group of forbidden soldiers behind him looked at the group of ministers opposite, showing expressions of disdain.

"Eunuch Lu, don't be angry. If you have something to say, please speak it up!"

Lu De, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, was rushing out to smooth things over.

"Raising funds for disaster relief is a national matter. You don't care about the safety of the country and the country. It is in vain to set up the fundraising location here. Let's go!"

Lu Hao waved his hand and turned around.

Yu Qian didn't take it seriously at all. In his opinion, Eunuch Lu was just a young eunuch, and he was the prime minister of the empire.

It was impossible for him to submit to a eunuch.

Fundraising is a matter of your own free will. Even if the emperor comes, you can't force them.

Lu Hao was very angry, and the consequences were serious.

Sure enough, under his instruction, the Prime Minister's donation of ten taels of silver soon spread throughout the streets of the imperial capital.

In order to raise more funds, Lu Hao rearranged the donation location in the central square of the imperial city.

After leaving these matters to Deputy Commander Yan, Lu Hao entered the palace in a carriage. "What? The Prime Minister donated ten taels?"

Murong Yuan exclaimed.

"Yes, here's the list!"

Lu Hao handed over the list.

Murong Yuan looked at the few people above and the three to five taels of silver, and his face suddenly turned as dark as ink.

He knew the donation list in the palace very well.

There is countless gold and silver, as well as many gold and silver jewelry, pearls and jades, agates and jade, which are naturally valuable.

However, this list...

It was just slapping him in the face!
"Yu Qian, you old man, you are trying to tear me down!"

Murong Yuan slapped the list on the table.

"To report to the Emperor, my servant had a quarrel with the Prime Minister. There were a group of ministers present at the time to support him. This is the list!"

Lu Hao presented the second list.

Murong Yuan looked at the list fiercely and gritted his teeth.

"Xiao Liuzi, didn't you say you could punish corrupt officials and confiscate their property?"

Murong Yuan suddenly spoke.

"Yes, the emperor means..."

Lu Hao understood immediately.

"Where are the Yanwu secret guards?"

Murong Yuan said coldly to the river.

As soon as the voice fell, a figure appeared in the center of the room.

The whole body was wrapped in black cloth, leaving only a pair of eyes, like a ghost in the dark.

"Yanwu Secret Guard No. 18, pay homage to the Emperor!"

The shadow fell to his knees.

Lu Hao was stunned.

It turns out that the emperor still has hidden power, and judging from the speed of entering just now.

The martial arts of this man in black must still be above Eunuch Hai.

The most terrifying thing is that judging from the number 18 he reported, this is a group of people.

A group of unknown martial arts masters hiding in the dark.

At critical moments, you can definitely turn the tables and turn defeat into victory.

Lu Hao finally recognized Murong Yuan again.

"If you have any evidence of these people's corruption and violation of the law, send it to me."

Murong Yuan threw out the list in his hand.

I saw white silk spinning in the air and flying towards Yanwu secret guard NO.18.

The latter took the silk and disappeared in a flash.

Sure enough, Murong Yuan's martial arts skills are so high!
"Xiao Liuzi, you have to keep what you saw today a secret!"

Murong Yuan warned.

"The servant understands!"

Lu Hao responded quickly.

In fact, Murong Yuan was just showing his strength to Lu Hao.

Let him not be afraid of the Prime Minister and those ministers.

On the other side, the Prime Minister's residence was brightly lit.

The Prime Minister was sitting in the central seat, his face as dark as ink, and he was obviously still angry.

On the left hand side, sits Yuan Dongyang, the Minister of Revenue, who is also the money bag of the empire.

On the right hand side, Wang Gaoyuan, the Minister of Civil Affairs, controls the appointment, dismissal and promotion of officials of all sizes in the empire.

There were about a dozen other people in the hall, who were also senior officials of the empire.

Although there are still four ministers who are not present, this place is like a small court.

Lu Dezheng, the minister of the Ministry of Industry who just came out to smooth things over, is in charge of the empire's road transportation, field and water conservancy and other infrastructure construction.

How could he not know that Jianghuai County suffered a once-in-a-century flood?

How could he not know that the people's homes were destroyed, displaced, and people were in mourning all over the place?
