At this moment, the five princes were unkempt, covered in blood, and had long lost their previous faces.
The head that was originally invincible and high was also deeply lowered at this moment.
Facing Su Yan, he used tactics and wanted to put Su Yan to death, but instead, he lost his wife and broke down.
He was distressed, he regretted, but it was far more than that at the moment.
He was stepped on his chest by Su Yan, and his whole body trembled slightly.
Su Yan looked at the five princes at this moment, and asked in a cold voice, "You can take it!"
The fifth prince raised his head and cast a chaotic look at Su Yan.
"Do you know who you stepped on!"
He wanted to be hard-hearted, but was stepped on by Su Yan, he couldn't harden up at all, and there was a little helplessness in his words.
Su Yan's voice was still cold, and he said directly, "What do you think."
"You are not me, it is the dignity of the empire, the dignity of the royal family, the dignity of the emperor!"
The fifth prince seemed to have exhausted his strength, and his voice at this moment was a bit high-pitched, he wanted to give his last fight.
However, disappointing him, Su Yan didn't have the slightest fear, not even a trace of fear.
He knew that Su Yan treated his words as farting, which made him desperate, which made him a little hard to understand.
A smile appeared at the corner of Su Yan's mouth and said to the fifth prince: "You can really brag about the dignity of the empire, you are the one I stepped on!"
Su Yan pushed his feet, and the Fifth Prince suddenly wailed. This pain is the pain of crushing, and it is the ultimate persecution of his muscles and bones.
Su Yan glanced at the pile of ledgers like a small hill, and then said, "Where are the real ledgers!"
The fifth prince can only say truthfully: "In my basement."
"Go get it!"
Su Yan shouted to the housekeeper.
How dare the butler disobey, he nodded quickly and ran away like a wind.
But after a while, a car of ledger arrived.
This is not the detailed account book of the mine. This is the personal account book of the five princes. How much money he is greedy and how much money he gave is all in the account book.
Su Yan opened a copy at random, and he was shocked by the eye.
Just a lump sum is up to ten million, which is equivalent to half of the assets of the Royal Palace.
Su Yan asked people to organize the ledger in front of the five princes!
It took a total of several hours, and everything was sorted out and condensed to one book.
This records the amount of corruption of the five princes over one million, and records the officials he has bribed over the past century.
Su Yan opened the account book, a hundred years ago, the five princes embezzled 500 million yuan stone!
The 1100 year of the imperial calendar is one hundred years ago.
In the 1150 year of the empire calendar, one billion yuan was corrupted!
In 1180 of the Imperial Calendar, 2 billion yuan was corrupted!
In 1190 of the Imperial Calendar, 3 billion yuan was corrupted!
The empire's calendar is 1,200 years, with five billion yuan of corruption!
These amounts are too terrifying, it can scare people.
And it can be seen that the amount of embezzlement by the five princes is increasing year by year.
In 1100, the Empire sent 10 million to General Zhenyuan, 10 million to General Dart, 10 million to General of Chariot, and 50 million to General of Northwest!
In 1150, the Empire sent 20 million to Zhenyuan general, 50 million to protect the country, and 100 million to the Southwest General!
In 1190, the Empire sent 200 million to the southeast commander and 200 million to the northeast commander!
This is still part of it. The five princes will spend half of the amount of corruption each year to bribe all parties.
Officials in the imperial city accounted for 30%, and the remaining 70% were basically bribes to high officials in the army!
It was the bribes of these people and the identity of the emperor's younger brother that the five princes could be in charge of the mine for a hundred years.
Originally, the imperial court had rules that the mines could not be in charge for more than ten years, but because of the suggestions of the officials and the generals, the five princes had been the mine owners for a hundred years!
Looking at this bill, the five princes looked ashamed. He knew that he had absolutely no way to survive, even if he was the emperor's younger brother.
And the reason why he surrendered the account book was entirely because Su Yan used the power of divine consciousness to control his mind.
Otherwise, even if he suffered thousands of tortures, he would not dare to call this thing out, he knew it was proof of his death.
Although Su Yan was a little shocked, it was just like that. At this moment, he was more happy in his heart.
The more these five princes are greedy, the better it will be for him, because they can earn more primordial stones, and the primordial stones that the fifth princes corrupt are naturally his Su Yan's primordial stones.
Su Yan looked at the fifth prince, and said, "Should your big treasury take us to see it?"
The fifth prince's mind was controlled by Su Yan, even if he wanted to oppose it, he couldn't, so he nodded stiffly.
Under the leadership of the five princes, a group of people went to the basement of the mansion, which was like an underground city!
It is very vast, and it will definitely not be built in a short while.
Along the way, to the destination, the fifth king took out a key and opened the basement gate.
When the door opened, a ray of light suddenly appeared, and a ray of light that could flash blind people's eyes directly shot out, and many people couldn't open their eyes at all.
However, Su Yan was not afraid at all, staring at everything in the basement with his eyes, the primordial stones seemed to be piled up, almost higher than the mountain peak.
Moreover, these primordial stones are not simple, they are divided into categories and grades.
Su Yan glanced at it and walked directly over a mountain in front of him.
This mountain is full of primordial stones, which is not much different from the primordial stones that Su Yan got before. It only needs to be polished to be exactly the same.
After passing by, there is still a big mountain in front of it, but it is much smaller than the previous one. The quality of this big mountain's primordial stone has reached a high level. It is rare on the market and basically not circulated as currency.
This is a special payment for officials!
Officials are naturally taken to practice, but this is more precious than the previous primordial stone and easier to absorb.
After walking by again, there are a pile of primordial stones in front of me, shining even more, each dazzling like a diamond.
This made Su Yan's eyes brightened, and he could feel that the original stone was unusual, and the material was definitely much higher than the previous two.
Apart from anything else, Su Yan directly took out the ghost gourd and collected all the hilly yuan stones.
Don't be in vain, this is all good stuff.
Continue to walk inside, there is another pile in front of me, but only a few meters high.
This pile has no light, like a pile of broken copper and iron, just there, no one cares about it.
However, this bunch of unremarkable things had strong fluctuations, which were more fluctuating than the original stone that Su Yan had received.
Su Yan knows why this is not to be seen, because it is not easy to absorb, but this pile of yuan stones is a rare boutique.
It is difficult for ordinary people to absorb, but he Su Yan is not worried at all. Not to mention that he has the "Nine Heavens of Chaos Jue", which can absorb all things, and can even derive the spiritual energy and vitality of all things in the world into their own power.
Even if it doesn't, he can easily absorb this pile of primordial stones. This is his ability.
Naturally, this pile of things didn't escape Su Yan's palm, and they were all taken by Su Yan.
Going deep inside, the surrounding space is actually narrow, as if there is a hole in the hole.
More than that, Su Yan faced a wave of volatility, a powerful volatility.
"this is?!"
Su Yan's eyes condensed, and he directly used his Yuan Li, blasting towards the wave with a punch.
However, although Su Yan's power was very strong, even the fourth grade of the Golden Core would have to die or be disabled even with his punch.
But his power did not cause any damage to this wave of fluctuations, and was completely resolved.
There was an invisible net in front of him, dispersing all his power, and ripples oscillated towards the surroundings.
Su Yan's face became serious, and he used his divine envoy to explore this wave of fluctuations.
"This thing!"
Su Yan immediately changed color, and more than that, the ghost gourd in his body fluctuated for a while, as if the ghost gourd was about to burst.
Su Yan was about to take out the ghost gourd, and a figure suddenly emerged from it.
Unexpectedly, Chao Hailing's clone would wake up at this moment.
Tidal Sea Spirit was a small goldfish raised by Su Yan back then. When Su Yan was besieged by blood ancestors and other forces, he already had the strength of the fairy king.
Its clones are all over the world, almost endless, but Su Yan was also surprised at the time that Little Earth had its clones.
However, the clone has been separated from the subject, otherwise Su Yan could use the clone to contact the subject.
Tide Hailing's avatar was looking at the wave of fluctuations, with flame-like eyes in his eyes.
"This thing is very important to me!"
Su Yan frowned slightly and said, "What is it?"
"Tide Yuanshi!" Chao Hailing said directly.
"Tide Yuanshi?!"
"This is a very rare elemental stone, and it has a strong effect on fish like me!"
Chao Hailing said with a fiery face.
Su Yan nodded, looking at the avatar of Chao Hailing and said, "Then I will help you."
Su Yan directly displayed the mighty power of the original power, and at this moment it was mixed with a terrifying secret technique.
With a punch, it was extremely powerful compared to just now, this power was 80% of his power.
The entire fluctuation could no longer be tolerated at this moment, it oscillated directly and dissipated invisible.
Tide Hailing's clone rushed directly in, the speed was unparalleled.
When Su Yan arrived, the avatar of Chao Hailing had already gnawed on the blue-green primordial stone the size of a basin for a moment.
"Good stuff, so delicious!"
Tidal Hai Lingfen kept admiring him while he was eating.
In the end, even the language of the clan came out.
"@#¥……(."
Su Yan smiled, but did not stop.
Although the tidal elemental stone was also a good thing for Su Yan, he was an immortal emperor, and there was no need to grab something with a little goldfish, so he let it go.
The tidal element stone has a great effect on the tide sea spirit, which can help it directly improve its realm and achieve the effect of getting twice the result with half the effort.
For Su Yan, it was similar to other primordial stones, and only had a little more strength.
Su Yan continued to explore the surroundings and found that there were no other primordial stones, so he left with Tidal Hailing.
Tide Hailing has been gnawing on the primordial stone. Although the primordial stone is not very large, it is very hard. Even if it is, it can only be as fast as a spring silkworm eating mulberry leaves.
"Go and eat slowly in the ghost gourd."
Su Yan directly put Tide Hailing clone into the ghost gourd.
At the end, Su Yan didn't forget to say, "The little goldfish I raised back then was called Bubbles. You can call it "Quanquan."
Regardless of whether Tide Hailing's clone disagrees with it, Su Yan is in charge anyway.
Leaving the cave, Xiao Meng and others were still waiting outside, controlled by Su Yan's formation, and the fifth prince had no other thoughts at all.
Su Yan said to Liu Jin: "Send the signal to let people from the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Households come over."
At the same time, Su Yan also asked Liu Erdan to erase the last few pages of the ledger, and all those pages were hacked by Su Yan.
Although Su Yan was not afraid of being found out, he still had to act.
This total of several hundred billion yuan stone is almost as much as the imperial taxation.
Taxes in the Xuancheng Empire were not high, and the taxes collected by the emperor were not used for state affairs, but merely symbolic.
This entire empire belongs to the emperor, what he wants in a sentence.
Hand taxes are just to pay officials.
After learning that Su Yan had found out about the mine, the emperor was furious and embezzled hundreds of billions, which he had never expected.
The right prince Zhanao was also shocked, looking at the emperor at this moment: "How to deal with Zhan Kun?!"
Zhan Kun is the name of the five princes.
"kill!"
The emperor did not hesitate at all, and said directly in a cold voice.
Zhanao nodded, he could see the hesitation and entanglement of the emperor before, and the emperor was completely gone at this moment.
The emperor is not a believing woman, he once killed countless people when he hit Jiangshan.
At this moment, he knew that the empire was dying, and even this group of might affect the empire's air luck, so naturally there was no slightest hesitation.
At the same time Zhanao looked at the emperor and said, "What about the rest?"
"Officials in the imperial city, catch them, kill them!"
Zhanao nodded, these officials are not at all concerned, he is actually worried about the military.
The Ministry of War is only the army that controls the imperial city. The army in the eighteen regions of the world is not under their control, but is under the command of the generals of the eight parties!
The leader of an army is a general, and the leader of a place is handsome!
This great commander of the eight directions, but his power is very large, to command the army of this side, it can even be said to be comparable to a domain master.
Moreover, the identities of these great marshals are not simple, all of them are not easy to mess with.
This corruption involves the officials of the military department most, and the four commanders are among them.
Of course, the emperor knew what Zhanao meant, looking at the sky at this moment, his voice was extremely cold.
"Let Su Yan go, I want to see how he solves it!"
The emperor did not express him directly, and this is not what Zhanao expected.
"I'm going to do it now." Zhan Ao agreed, and he was about to leave.
But when he was about to leave, Zhanao said more.
"The emperor, these four marshals are the second generation of the army!"
What does the second generation of the army mean? It is the heir of the first generation of the army. The first generation of the army is a figure who has followed the emperor on the battlefield!
The emperor's body trembled slightly, but his eyes were still extremely cold.
"If you make a mistake, you have to pay the price!"
The emperor’s attitude has been very clear, this reform must not be soft!
Zhanao also thoroughly understood the emperor's attitude, and directly withdrew from Longxing Palace.
