Qin Shi: I only work eight hours

Chapter 103 Empress Dowager Huayang Takes Action
"it is good."

"You just wait here!"

Seeing that Mi Fang was unwilling to leave, Lord Yangquan said irritably.

Then we took a car to Huayang Palace.

……

After a stick of incense.

Lord Yangquan met with Empress Dowager Huayang.

Empress Dowager Huayang had already gone to sleep.

If the person who came hadn't been her own brother and hadn't said it was urgent, she wouldn't have met him at all!
"What happened this time?"

Empress Dowager Huayang put on her coat and asked with a displeased expression.

Her younger brother is always getting her into trouble!
"Sister, you have such discerning eyes."

"But it's nothing serious."

Lord Yangquan replied with a forced smile.

Then he waved his sleeves to send his attendants away.

"Go ahead."

After the maids had gone far away, Empress Dowager Huayang urged them on.

"Sister, is this how it is?"

Do you still remember Mi Fang?

"That's the one I recommended to Ba County a while ago, to be the governor."

Lord Yangquan asked respectfully.

As soon as he finished speaking, he stepped forward and personally poured a bowl of boiled water for Empress Dowager Huayang.

Empress Dowager Huayang nodded slightly upon hearing this, took the teacup, and told Lord Yangquan to continue speaking, focusing on the key points.

Lord Yangquan was very long-winded; he could talk for half an hour without getting to the point.

“Bayer County has recently experienced a malaria outbreak.”

"The situation is critical; dozens of people are dying every day."

"Mi Fang initially thought she could control the situation, so she didn't report it to the King, but who knew..."

Yangquan Jun added in a deep voice.

"Knowing the truth but failing to report it, resulting in dozens of deaths in Bavaria County every day?"

"Such a serious matter, even I cannot protect him!"

Empress Dowager Huayang was startled upon hearing this and said sternly.

Then he slammed the teacup heavily onto the table.

Upon seeing this, Lord Yangquan hurriedly stepped forward to massage Empress Dowager Huayang's shoulders, but she refused.

"It is true that you recommended him, but you are unaware of the affairs of Ba County."

"At most, it's just a matter of being fined a few years' salary."

"As for how the king deals with him, what is it to you..."

Empress Dowager Huayang said expressionlessly.

Before she could finish speaking, Yangquan Jun interrupted her.

"If it were just a recommendation, I wouldn't have come to you, sister."

"The key issue is that he recently gave me a lot of money, and I'm afraid that if he goes to jail for it, he'll drag me down with him, so..."

Lord Yangquan lowered his head and explained.

"???"

"How much money did he give you?" Empress Dowager Huayang asked coldly, her phoenix eyes flashing.

"It's about five thousand gold coins, but I haven't calculated the exact amount."

Lord Yangquan answered tremblingly.

"He's only been in office for a short time and he's already given you so much money?"

"You!"

"I will be ruined by you sooner or later!"

The Queen Mother Huayang was furious.

If Yangquan Jun weren't her own brother, she would have imprisoned him right now!
Incompetent bungler!
"elder sister."

"I didn't expect this either."

"If there is no malaria..."

Lord Yangquan defended himself.

He was interrupted by Queen Dowager Huayang before he could finish his words.

"So what are you going to do?"

Empress Dowager Huayang's voice grew increasingly cold.

"He wanted to transfer to another prefecture as a prefectural assistant."

"What I'm thinking is to transfer him to another county as a magistrate or assistant magistrate."

Yangquan Jun replied.

"The king has already sent Zhang Han and Xia Wuqie into Ba County."

"So it's very difficult for him to transfer to another prefecture or county now."

The Queen Mother Huayang said.

If this matter hadn't reached Ying Zheng's ears, it would have been easier to handle. But now that Ying Zheng has sent people to Ba County, how can he transfer the post?

"elder sister."

"If it's really too difficult to handle, then I'll just have someone..."

Upon seeing this, Lord Yangquan made a throat-slitting gesture with a dark expression.

He really enjoys killing people to cover his tracks!
What about cousins?
Is his future more important?
"Even if we really wanted to get rid of him, now wouldn't be the time."

"Now that the king is watching so closely, how can we get rid of him?"

"In that case, you should keep him calm for now, let him go back and behave well, and try to get the king to be lenient with him, demote him to a commoner and exile him."

"Once this matter is over, if you want to avoid any future troubles, you can send someone to kill him on his way to exile, and then shift the blame to the Xiongnu or the six states of Shandong."

The Queen Mother Huayang said seriously.

"Sister is wise!"

Upon hearing this, Lord Yangquan's eyebrows furrowed with delight.

"I hope this is the last time you cause trouble!"

Queen Mother Huayang scolded.

Then he waved his sleeve and drove Yangquan Jun away.

"Don't worry, sister!"

"I promise this is the last time!"

Lord Yangquan patted his chest and assured him.

Then he quickly left Huayang Palace.
