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

The old man was so angry that he was lying on the ground.

When Lu Wen heard the voice, he looked at Gao Feng instantly.

Can you force someone to testify to such nonsense?

"Master Gao, you were not like this before."

Gao Feng's face remained unchanged, and he said in a cold voice: "Master Lu, what I said is the truth. You openly slandered the people of Dingguo Mansion in the court, and you must apologize!"

Lu Wen did not expect Gao Feng to be so shameless.

Lv Zhen also said, "The Gao family kid is kind-hearted and never tells lies. This must be a misunderstanding!"

Lu Wen looked at Lu Zhen, and his lips began to tremble.

"General Lu, even you..."

Lv Zhen looked at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose, and did not look at Lu Wen at all.

But there was no way, his granddaughter was eager for him to confess, and since they were a family, he had to cooperate!

Gao Yang began to make up for it, "This roulette game, I heard that a box of white jade candy costs twelve strings of money, which is a year's salary for ordinary people, and it is a game of luck!"

"If Madam Lu is lucky enough, the first roulette wheel will draw a thousand coins eleven times, and the second roulette wheel only needs to draw a hundred coins ten times in a row, then only twenty people are needed!"

"I think the person behind this roulette game is very kind!"

Shangguan Wan'er's body swayed and she almost couldn't stand still.

Eleven times in a row, a thousand coins, and ten times in a row, if there is such a person in the world, then she would have to kill him for Wu Zhao and cut off the roots!

But she also admired Gao Yang's shamelessness.

Whether it was that Chen Sheng peeped at him taking a bath, or that he finally blamed Madam Lu's luck, his face was not red.

Wu Zhao glanced at Lu Wen, and saw that his face was flushed, his fists were clenched, and his whole body was shaking.

She was afraid that Lu Wen would fall down in anger, so she said, "I will send someone to investigate this matter, and I will give you an explanation at that time!"

"In addition, I have something to announce today."

As Wu Zhao spoke, everyone fell silent.

Instead, there was a burst of curiosity.

Wu Zhao's eyes fell on Gao Yang, and she spoke for a while.

"In the past, I posted an edict to recruit talents from all over the world, and specifically emphasized that extraordinary achievements must be made by extraordinary people. The Yuanwailang of the Ministry of Revenue has made great contributions in reducing grain prices in Linjiang City, pacifying locust plagues in Guanzhong, and defending Chang'an!"

"If I don't value the Yuanwailang of the Ministry of Revenue, wouldn't it make the scholars of the world laugh at me?"

Almost as soon as he said this, all the officials looked at Wu Zhao, especially Wang Zhong, Xu Xuanji and others, whose faces changed wildly.

They all focused their eyes on Wu Zhao, which was obviously to promote Gao Yang.

And the tone was at least three levels higher!

Not to mention Wang Zhong and others, even Gao Yang's eyes suddenly lit up.

Sure enough, high risk is accompanied by high returns, and Wu Zhao's pie is about to come true.

He was also a little curious about Wu Zhao's courage!

"Minister Ding of the Ministry of Revenue is in poor health and has been sick for many days. He has submitted a letter to me to retire and return home, but the Minister of Revenue is one of the six ministries and controls the money of the world. It cannot be left without a master for a day!"

"Therefore, I decided to make an exception and promote Gao Yang to be the Minister of Revenue of Daqian. What do you think?"

Buzz!

As soon as these words came out, it was like a thunder of the sky resounding in the minds of all officials, shocking them for a while!

They widened their eyes, and a storm of waves rose in their hearts!

How old is Gao Yang?

According to Daqian’s age of 20, Gao Yang is not yet an adult!

A 19-year-old Minister of the Ministry of Revenue is unheard of, not to mention looking at Daqian, even if you look at the thousands of years of history of the Seven Kingdoms!

Lu Wenren was dumbfounded!

Gao Yang is the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue?

This is higher than his position as a minister of the Dali Temple!

Moreover, among the six ministries, the Ministry of Personnel is in charge of the promotion of officials and is known as the head of the six ministries. The second is the Ministry of Revenue. The Ministry of Revenue is in charge of the silver in the world, measuring the land, collecting taxes to fill the treasury, and even their salaries have to go to the Ministry of Revenue!

He just impeached Gao Yang. According to Gao Yang’s vindictive nature, can he have a good life in the future?

Wang Zhong, Xu Xuanji, and the Minister of War Wang Hao all widened their eyes!

Their hands were shaking!

As the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, plus the trust of the empress, Gao Yang’s position in the court in the future can be imagined.

They looked at each other and wanted to stop it.

Gao Feng's hands also trembled, and a huge wave of shock rose in his heart.

His son is going to be the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue?

You have to know that as a father, he has been the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue for decades!

When he thought of Gao Yang sitting in the main seat in the Ministry of Revenue in the future, he sat

Looking at the wicked boy's sly smile, he felt sick, as if ants were crawling on his body.

All officials could not help but explode and whispered.

Wu Zhao also took a deep breath, with majestic eyes.

Although Gao Yang had made great contributions, he was too young to be appointed as the Minister of Revenue. The resistance was self-evident, especially since Gao Yang had offended many people.

Lu Wen and Wang Zhong looked at Xu Xuanji first.

The meaning of that look was very simple, you are the prime minister, you take the lead!

Xu Xuanji's eyes flickered, and everyone present was a shrewd person. As the saying goes, taking someone's money is like killing their parents, not to mention the position of the Minister of Revenue!

He and Gao Yang did not have a personal grudge on the surface, but it was different when he stood up.

He remembered the death of Prince Rong vividly.

He didn't want Gao Yang to come up with a vicious plan, making him eat a pig to defend himself, and then die in frustration.

Xu Xuanji looked at Wang Hao, and his meaning was very simple, "In the defense of Chang'an, Gao Yang can be the temporary Minister of War, and he is in the limelight. Doesn't this make you look like a piece of trash? Can you tolerate this?"

Wang Hao's face turned green.

He wanted to stop it, but his assistant minister of the Ministry of War was abolished by Wu Zetian not long ago. If this blocked Gao Yang's way, what if Gao Yang was transferred to the Ministry of War? What would he still have to do?

He looked at Wang Zhong, pursed his lips, and hinted, "You are already a general, but you still drink locusts every day. You are the most frustrated. If you don't go, who will go?"

Wang Zhong gritted his teeth and finally looked at Cui Xinghe.

"You are a top scholar, but you have been suppressed by Gao Yang. Can you accept this? Can you tolerate this? As long as you raise your arms, we will go immediately, and great things will be accomplished!"

Cui Xinghe looked away directly.

He is only a fifth-rank official. Why don't you go and let me go first?

Lu Wen was speechless. A bunch of people who are so servile and despicable can never achieve anything great!

At the critical moment, the real man has to look at him, Lu Wen!

Lu Wen stepped forward and took a deep breath.

But at this time, Gao Yang bowed to Wu Zhao.

"Your Majesty, I am ashamed to accept your grace!"

"I am guilty!"

Wu Zhao frowned, but soon relaxed her brows and continued.

"My dear Gao, what is your crime?"

Gao Yang said with a tragic face, "A few days ago, a guard beside me stole some alcohol and grenades when I was careless. Their whereabouts are unknown now."

"It is August now, the weather is dry, and alcohol meets wood. Once ignited, it is very easy to leak and endanger the whole family. What's more, the grenade, if it is intended to harm others, it is simply a great sin for me!"

Wu Zhao heard it and slapped the dragon table angrily.

"I trust you so much, how can you be so careless? If you hurt me and the whole court, how many heads will you have to chop off?"

"This matter is of great importance. I will punish you for negligence and fine you three years' salary. If you fail to get this person back and hurt others, I will make you pay!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!"

Gao Yang bowed and saluted.

At this time, Wu Zetian looked at Lu Wen and said, "Lord Lu, are you going to make a suggestion?"

Lu Wen bowed his hands and said with a righteous face, "Your Majesty, I do have something to say!"

"Although I just misunderstood Lord Gao, I have something to say. Your Majesty, I agree with your appointment of Lord Gao as the Minister of Revenue. Lord Gao has countless clever ideas. If he is the Minister of Revenue and controls the silver of Daqian, he will definitely make our Daqian treasury full and the people live and work in peace and contentment!"

"Anyone who refutes this matter, I think is a traitor and should be killed!"

Lu Wen's words were loud and resounding in the Golden Palace.

He also showed Gao Yang a kind smile.

Wu Zhao's lips curled up into a barely perceptible smile, she looked down at the officials and said, "Is there anyone who objects?"

All the officials bowed their hands and shouted, "Your Majesty is wise!"

"Your Majesty is wise!"

Then, Wu Zhao appointed some more officials to fill the vacancies.

But the atmosphere in the Golden Palace had become strange.

An early court session ended, and all the officials left the stage.

But the news that Gao Yang was the Minister of Revenue would surely spread throughout the capital at the fastest speed, causing a huge storm...
