However, Empress He and Ho Lin didn't know that the wealth they had accumulated over the years had all gone up in smoke.
"Ding dong! Congratulations to Master for making the right choice. All the wealth and wealth of the people that Empress He, He Lin, and her two elder brothers, General He Jin, General He Miao, have plundered over the years, totaling 4.96 million taels of gold, 7.82 million batches of silk, and 5.2 million catties of grain, have now been transferred to a mysterious warehouse in Liaodong Prefecture, belonging to Master!”
Why was there no silver here? Because during the Eastern Han Dynasty, silver did not become a publicly circulated currency, but gold could be used for exchange!
Why wasn't there any copper coins inside?
For top nobles like Empress He Lin, Great General He Jin, Cheji General He Miao, they naturally wouldn't use copper coins to store their wealth. Instead, they would use copper coins to exchange for gold.
It was just like the nobles of a certain period of time who were more inclined to store small yellow croakers and large yellow croakers than legal currency.
Han Ling Emperor Liu Hong looked at the First Prince Liu Zheng in surprise.
He felt gratified. He did not expect that after all these years of not educating his child, this child would actually be so kind and return evil with good.
Such a kind-hearted child would definitely be able to shoulder the heavy responsibility of protecting the little prince Liu Xie as he ascended the throne!
However, after all, something like this had happened between Empress He and the Eldest Prince. It would always make him, the Emperor, feel strange!
Emperor Ling of Han, Liu Hong, remembered that the First Prince, Liu Zheng, was already an adult. He should have been given a fief and become a prince. Now that such a thing had happened, he should seize the time to settle this matter!
Now that Han Ling Emperor Liu Hong was too powerful because of Great General He Jin and Cheji General He Miao, it was not good to depose Empress He. Since the First Prince Liu asked for favors, he might as well take advantage of the situation.
"Ho Lin, your actions today were too excessive, but since the First Prince is pleading for you, this one also does not want to let the dirty linen spread in public!
In this way, he would be fined three months of salary, shut himself in for three months to reflect on his mistakes, and not be allowed to leave the Empress's bedroom!”
Empress He Lin's mood was very complicated. Her mind was a little chaotic, and her heart was also a little chaotic. She couldn't remember what had happened just now.
Now Ho Lin could only give a deep bow:"ChenQie thanks Your Majesty for your great kindness!
ChenQie thanks the First Prince for his magnanimity!”
Now, Han Ling Emperor Liu Hong looked at Empress He and He Lin, then looked at the First Prince Liu Zheng, his gaze a little complicated.
The First Prince Liu Zheng was already an adult and was no longer a child. After such an incident with Empress He and Ho Lin, who were still beautiful and dignified, it was always a case of making a fool out of himself. It made people feel a little uneasy!
Emperor Han Ling, Liu Hong, looked deeply at the First Prince, Liu Zheng.
"I can protect you for a while, but I can't protect you forever.
Now that you're an adult, it's better for you to leave the capital as soon as possible and choose a fief to go to!
Which state or county do you want to go to?"
Liu Zheng did not expect Emperor Ling of Han, Liu Hong, to raise this question at this time.
At that time, Liu Zheng really wanted to tell Emperor Ling of Han, Liu Hong, that he wanted to go to Liaodong Prefecture in Youzhou Province!
However, Liu Zheng knew about Emperor Liu Hong's personality from Cao Zhengchun.
If he took the initiative to ask where he wanted to go, Han Ling Emperor Liu Hong would definitely not allow him to go there.
Therefore, this matter had to be brought up by someone else.
Therefore, Liu Zheng bowed and said,"Everything will be arranged by Father!"”
Emperor Han Ling, Liu Hong, nodded.
You can go back first!"
"I have a request to ask of Imperial Father!" Liu Zheng bowed.”
Han Ling Emperor Liu Hong was stunned for a moment. This First Prince had never asked for anything before, so he asked with interest.
"What is it?"
Liu Zheng pointed at the eunuchs who were testifying for him.""Your Majesty, these eunuchs are loyal and have offended Empress He.
Your son is worried that Empress He will do something bad to them, so I request Imperial Father to bestow them to your son and bring them to your fief…"
Han Ling Emperor Liu Hong looked at the First Prince Liu Zheng with admiration. He did not expect Liu Zheng to be so kind-hearted that he still remembered these eunuchs.
Because they had spoken out for justice, they had to protect these eunuchs.
Because Han Ling Emperor Liu Hong had been assisted by eunuchs to ascend to the throne, and because these eunuchs had helped him resist the aristocratic families outside, he had the imperial power and was not controlled by those aristocratic families. Therefore, Han Ling Emperor Liu Hong had a particularly good impression of these eunuchs.
Thus, when he saw that Liu Zheng was loyal to these eunuchs, his impression of Liu Zheng immediately improved.
Emperor Han Ling, Liu Hong, smiled and said,"It's rare for you to be so loyal. Then let these people follow you to your fief!"”
In reality, the First Prince Liu Zheng did not have a particularly good impression of eunuchs.
They were purely used as tools to fight against the great clans.
Moreover, these eunuchs were all eunuchs from the East Chamber recruited through the system.
They were tools themselves and would not be as selfish as the local eunuchs in the Eastern Han Dynasty.
These eunuchs had no personal feelings. They were completely loyal to the First Prince, Liu Zheng.
Therefore, Liu Zheng brought them to the fief to facilitate the intelligence work over there.
However, Cao Zhengchun still had to stay in the Imperial Palace to manage the intelligence work here.
Empress He and He Lin still couldn't do anything to Cao Zhengchun.
Then, the First Prince Liu Zheng bade farewell and left!
Empress He and Ho Lin stared blankly at the back of the Eldest Prince Liu Zheng as he left, deep in thought.
