"No, no, no. We are willing to share Your Majesty's worries!”
"We will die for you!"
The two of them hurriedly bowed and said, not daring to be negligent.
Judging from Li Zhi's current style of doing things, they were afraid that they would follow the old path of Lai Junchen and Zhou Xing. Thus, to be safe, it was better to spend money to avoid disaster.
"Since the two of you are so sincere, I'll give you ten days to exchange for five million taels of silver. How about it?”Li Zhi smiled mysteriously and looked at the two of them.
"Ah ~" Lu Ze and Lu Shizhi were completely stunned.
This kind of paper money was a new thing. If he wanted to obtain anything from the common people, he still needed a process. How could he complete the exchange in just ten days?
If they wanted to forcefully complete the exchange, then the two of them would have to fork out money to buy these silver notes.
Spending five million gold and silver to buy these light yellow papers back.
At the thought of this, their hearts instantly bled.
"Your Majesty, a short ten days is too hasty. This lowly subject is not capable of doing so!”Lu Ze said bitterly.
"That's right, Your Majesty. Ten days is too much for me.”Lu Shizhi bowed and said.
"Humph! When the two of you privately minted coins, you were very active. I heard that you could mince millions of strings in a single leap. Why can't you do it when it comes to me? Was he really unable to do it, or was he unwilling?”Li Zhi snorted coldly and his expression changed.
Now that he had the support of five thousand Dragon Guards, he did not have to worry about a mutiny in the Imperial City.
After all, five thousand Dragon Guards were equivalent to fifty thousand soldiers. It was enough to protect Li Zhi for a short period of time.
When the two of them heard Li Zhi's words, they immediately knelt on the ground in fear.
"Your Majesty, you're innocent. Those rumors are all false. How could this lowly subject do such a treasonous thing!”
"That's right, Your Majesty. Everything was slandered by people with ulterior motives.”
The two of them cried and defended themselves to Li Zhi, making themselves sound as pure as two white lotuses.
"Where is Wei Zhongxian?" Li Zhi shouted.
"Your humble subject is here!" Wei Zhongxian walked out of the crowd and threw the money and account book that Lu Ze and Lu Shizhi had privately cast onto the ground.
"Take a look, marquises!" Wei Zhongxian smiled sinisterly.
Lu Ze and Lu Shizhi were sweating profusely, and their bodies were trembling.
"Empress, save me! Empress, save this lowly official!”
The two of them hurriedly cried behind the curtain. After all, their sister was sitting there.
Now, only the powerful Lu Zhi could save their lives.
"Your Majesty, this matter has yet to be investigated and needs further consideration. Why don't we let the three judicial departments investigate it thoroughly before making any plans?”Even though Lu Zhi's voice was completely pleasant to the ears and very magnetic, it appeared overbearing and high-spirited at this moment.
It seemed like he wasn't discussing with Li Zhi or giving Li Zhi advice, but a direct threat.
"What if I say no?" What Li Zhi couldn't stand the most was being threatened by others. He was a typical example of being coaxed but not forced.
But Lu Zhi insisted on giving him a hard one, so Li Zhi could only stuff the hard one back into Lu Zhi's mouth.
"Your Majesty, you should consider this carefully. The Lu family is a large family with many connections. I hope Your Majesty will think twice and not make any mistakes!”Lu Zhi's eyes flashed with a cold light, and his aura was terrifying.
Li Zhi was instantly furious. This b * tch, how could he tolerate such a threat in the imperial court!
Immediately.
Li Zhi looked at Lu Ze and Lu Shizhi below the hall and shouted angrily,""Where are the Dragon Guards? Lu Ze and Lu Shizhi privately minted coins? The amount is huge. They are the country's greatest thieves.”
"How dare you!" Lu Zhi was immediately furious. She slapped the armrest of the phoenix chair, and the armrest was directly broken by her.
In the main hall, seven or eight officials knelt down.
"Please reconsider, Your Majesty!"
"Please reconsider, Your Majesty!"
.......
Li Zhi was instantly enraged. These bastards actually dared to collude and openly threaten him in the imperial court.
"Lu Zhi, do you know that you will be beheaded if you speak to zhen like this?”Although Li Zhi was extremely angry, his tone was surprisingly calm, giving people the feeling of a brief calm before a huge storm!
