    "Master, Hong'er was taken away by those vicious guys, what's wrong!" Yang Hua's wife rushed into the study and said to Yang Hua and Li in tears.  As the emperor's mother-in-law, when has she ever suffered such a loss?

    Yang Hua¡¯s eldest son, Yang Hu, also had a livid face. The military police dared to come to their home and take Yang Hong away. This is simply not giving the Yang family face!  Tomorrow, the Yang family will definitely become the laughing stock of the entire Beijing city!

    "Father! Can you find a way to rescue your brother? He has never suffered much since he was a child. He was arrested by the military police and will definitely not end well!" Yang Hu persuaded.  Although he didn't like this younger brother who was always getting into trouble, he couldn't let go of the Yang family's face!

    "Shut up! Do you know what Xiao Chunhe said? The order to arrest people was personally issued by His Majesty the Emperor! That guy Hong'er is so bold that he dares to collude with unscrupulous businessmen to sell inferior military supplies to the army. Now he has caused tens of thousands of casualties.  People are dead and injured! Your Majesty is furious, do you think Hong'er will end well?" Yang Hua said with a gloomy face.  He knew that if all the evidence was conclusive, the trouble would be huge, and the entire Yang family might be implicated!  Now is the time of war, and anyone who harms the interests of the military will definitely not end well!

    Ms. Li doesn¡¯t know the power of this and hasn¡¯t shown anything yet. In her opinion, her daughter is a concubine and her husband has been a prime minister. Is there any problem that makes it difficult for them to get her?  But the eldest son Yang Hu is different. He is also in the officialdom. Although his official position is not high, his status is not low.  He is also very aware of the temper of Emperor Wang Yuze. What Wang Yuze dislikes the most is corruption. Anyone involved in this will definitely die miserably!  The army is Wang Yuze's enemy. No one can touch it except the emperor himself!  Yang Hong's behavior is simply seeking death!  Even with the current status and power of the Yang family, if something like this happened, they would definitely not be able to live with it!  Thinking of this, Yang Hu couldn't help but sweat dripping from his head!  Although the Yang family has a high and powerful position, everything is given by the emperor. If the emperor no longer favors them, the decline of the Yang family is just around the corner!

    "Yang Hu, tell me, is Yang Hong really involved?" Yang Hua asked. He couldn't believe that Yang Hong would be so bold. This would not only kill him, but also affect the entire family.  !

    ¡°I don¡¯t know much about my father¡¯s brother. However, I accidentally discovered that he had close contacts with textile merchants in the south.

    I didn¡¯t pay much attention to it at the time, but now it seems that my brother may have really been taken advantage of!  "Yang Hu said!

    "Damn it!" Yang Hua cursed secretly. He originally hoped that all this was a misunderstanding, but now it seems that it is Yang Hong who is looking for death!

    "Master, is there no other way? Let's go find Shilan immediately. She is a noble concubine, and she will definitely be able to take care of her brother!" Mrs. Li also heard that the problem was serious, and suddenly panicked, and said quickly!

    "Yang Hu, you and your mother go to see Shilan and ask her to plead with His Majesty. Our Yang family is willing to compensate the military for all losses! As long as Your Majesty spares Yang Hong's life!" Yang Hua said.  Although he knew that this would probably be very difficult, the emperor would never let go of such an opportunity to scare the monkeys!  Although the empire has become rich and powerful with the development of industry and commerce, there are always some people who want to take evil ways.  We are currently in the midst of a war. For the sake of domestic stability, Wang Yuze does not want to deal with these problems now, but now that the Yang family has sent them to his door, will Wang Yuze still worry so much?  Even if Yang Hong is Wang Yuze's brother-in-law, and the matter involves the army, Wang Yuze will definitely not bend the law for personal gain!

    "Ah! Master, let's go to the palace right away!" Mrs. Li said quickly when she heard that her son was in fear of his life.

    Li and Yang Hu went to the palace to find the imperial concubine Yang Shilan to plead with Wang Yuze, but it was destined to be fruitless!  Wang Yuze has been furious since he saw the miserable appearance of those frostbitten soldiers at the field hospital on the front line. Anyone involved will be subject to the severest punishment, even his brother-in-law!  Therefore, after Wang Yuze returned to Beijing, the imperial concubine Yang Shilan only mentioned it briefly, but was scolded by Wang Yuze before she could say anything. After being married for many years, Yang Shilan knew that Wang Yuze was angry and had to shut up and say nothing more.  Got it!  Yang Hong himself was impatient, so he really couldn't blame others!

    On the morning of April 2, Wang Yuze had already returned to Beijing by train!  Although this inspection made him very disappointed, he was also very lucky to have conducted this inspection. Otherwise, these things would have been hidden for how long.  So far, this is just a small problem, but if it is not dealt with, it will develop into a big problem sooner or later!  A thousand-mile embankment was destroyed by an ant nest. This is what Wang Yuze needs to remember!

    In order to speed up the return journey, Wang Yuze specifically asked the railway department to prepare aA car was provided for him to return to Beijing.  And the road is smooth. Except for the stops needed to add water and coal, there is no need to stop along the way. It only takes 5 days at most to return to Beijing!

    At 9 a.m., Minister of Homeland Security Wang Wei, Chief of General Staff Cai Yun, and Minister of National Defense Jiang Xingguo came to the carriage where Wang Yuze was resting and reported the specific situation to Wang Yuze.  Because there were no other passengers on the train this time, except for Wang Yuze and his group, there were only the escorting troops, so the train seemed a little empty!

    "Your Majesty, all the criminals have been arrested! The businessmen from Jinling, the officers from the Logistics Department, and the Gendarmerie Commander General Xiao personally went to Yang's house last night to take Yang Hong away. He is currently being held in the Gendarmerie Commander's jail.  ! General Xiao asked for permission to interrogate them?" Wang Wei reported to Wang Yuze!

    "Let the military police bring all the prisoners to Beijing! General Xiao can interrogate those people. I need to see the results of the interrogation when the train returns to Beijing!" Wang Yuze said coldly.  Although he wanted to kill all those guys, the necessary procedures still had to go through.  After becoming the emperor, his words could determine the life and death of tens of millions of people, but he has always been very restrained and did not want to be confused by power.  Now that the empire is still at war, his responsibility is to lead the empire to strength, not to destruction because of his own selfish desires!

    "Yes, Your Majesty!" Wang Wei nodded!

    "How did the Yang family react?" Wang Yuze asked.  He knew that if Yang Honglai was asked to establish his power this time, there was no way the Yang family would not react at all!

    "Li and Yang Hu went to the palace last night to ask for an audience with the imperial concubine, and they didn't leave until late at night! Other than that, they didn't do anything else!" Wang Wei said!

    "Huh! They know what they're talking about!" Wang Yuze said coldly.  If the Yang family dares to make any other unscrupulous actions, he doesn't mind making the Yang family pay a greater price!

    "Chief of General Staff, how is the situation in the army? Can we launch an attack on Russia as scheduled?" Wang Yuze asked.  It was originally planned to launch an attack on Russia in mid-April, when the ice and snow had melted and the roads were basically dry. But now that something like this has happened, the combat effectiveness of the troops will definitely be affected!

    "Your Majesty, the ice and snow have begun to melt now, but the weather this year is slightly lower than in previous years. It is expected that the roads will not dry out until the end of the month. In addition, the General Staff has dispatched new support troops to the front line and plans to move the troops  Make up for the losses! Therefore, the General Staff plans to postpone the date of the attack to the end of this month or the beginning of next month!" Chief of General Staff Cai Yun said!

    "Yes! Yes! This is our most critical battle against Russia, and there is no room for sloppiness!" Wang Yuze expressed his approval of the General Staff's decision!  This war against Russia will be a war to destroy the country, and it needs to be properly prepared.  Any negligence is likely to bring serious consequences to the empire!

    "Your Majesty, if we continue to postpone the war against Russia, the Germans may have objections again! They have already launched an attack on the British and French coalition forces. The Germans have pushed all the main forces up. If the Russians attack from the east  In their words, once the Austro-Hungarian Empire cannot resist the German attack, their campaign will be greatly affected!" said Defense Minister Jiang Xingguo!

    "Ignore those Germans. Now the empire's strength no longer needs to compromise with the Germans! We will launch an attack whenever it is most beneficial to us! As for the Russians, Tsar Nicholas II has already sent all the main forces to  Troops have been dispatched to Siberia, ready to fight us to the death. Do the old, weak, sick and disabled people in Russia still have the strength to attack Germany and the Austro-Hungarian Empire?" Wang Yuze said disdainfully!

    Five days later, Wang Yuze¡¯s train arrived in Beijing. After returning to the palace, he immediately ordered Gendarmerie Commander Xiao Chunhe to report to him on the interrogation!  The imperial concubine Yang Shilan hesitated to speak, but Wang Yuze said it first. Anyone who harmed the army would not be let off.  Therefore, Yang Shilan had no choice but to stop persuading!  At this time, as long as a woman gets married, she becomes a member of her husband's family.  Between their mother's family and their husband's family, they know how to choose!

    Soon, Gendarmerie Commander Lieutenant General Xiao Chunhe made a credible report to Wang Yuze, and both Yang Hong and the businessmen confessed to the matter.  The officers in the Logistics Department did not deny anything, and everything was revealed!  So, Wang Yuze ordered these guys to be tried by a military court!
