Chapter 967: Queen Mother 7
As long as it doesn't happen to himself and pushes others out to block the knife, no matter how much others suffer, he doesn't care at all.
Suddenly being named, Zhou Si was shocked, lowered his eyebrows and said: "Niangniang, the affairs of the household department are complicated, Niangniang, you are in a hurry, and it will take a few days to completely sort it out." ”
"Oh?" Jiang Chan raised his eyebrows: "I want to come to Lord Zhou, how did I hear that Lord Zhou was still enjoying the flowers in the Pavilion last night?"
"Lord Zhou, the flowers of the Pavilion must be extraordinary. The British Duke stroked his beard, "It's just because of this that I neglected the things that the mother explained, so I didn't take the mother's orders to heart." ”
Zhou Si pounced and knelt down: "Niangniang forgives the sin, it is Weichen who did not do his best......"
Jiang Chan smiled: "It's okay, Lord Zhou is busy, and the mourning family specially shares the worries of Lord Zhou." Father-in-law Xu, you take five or six people to the household department, and you will sort out all the documents and data of the household department this afternoon and send them to the imperial study. ”
"As for Lord Zhou," Jiang Chan pondered: "Presumably Lord Zhou was dazzled by the Qunfang of the Pavilion yesterday, and his old eyes were dizzy and he couldn't see the numbers clearly, so let's go home and rest for a few days first." When to recover, listen to the arrangement of the mourning family. ”
Zhou Si hurriedly kowtowed: "Niangniang forgives her sins, Weichen knows that she is wrong, and Niangniang forgives her sins!"
Jiang Chan suddenly straightened his face: "Lord Zhou, the most disliked thing in the life of the mourning family is mediocrity, if you want to sit firmly in the position of the head of the household, just take out your real talents and work hard, what is it to cry poor in front of the mourning family?"
"As an official, he didn't finish the things that Shangfeng explained, but he had time to go to the Gathering Pavilion, how could such a person still be able to stay in such an important position as the Hubu Shangshu?"
Jiang Chan spoke mercilessly, if this is in modern times, civil servants make such a thing, and the establishment will be canceled in minutes, where is it like now, it is still a romantic affair to say it?
"Drag it down!" Seeing Zhou Si paralyzed on the ground, Jiang Chan smiled slightly, picked up the Buddha beads again, and looked extremely kind.
When Jiang Chan took Gonggong Xu away, the remaining officials shrank their necks in unison: "How many are these?"
If you don't agree with each other, she will copy the official house, this young queen mother looks kind, but her methods are not soft at all. Thinking of Zhou Si's visit to the Pavilion last night, she knew that there were indeed a lot of eyeliner for the Queen Mother.
Seeing that Zhou Si was dragged down with a wail, Jiang Chan did not immediately arrange the position of the household secretary, but was held by the original household servant Lu Jing first. This position is too important, and she has to look for a candidate.
In the afternoon, Gonggong Xu brought more than a dozen little eunuchs to the household department, and according to the Arabic numerals taught by Jiang Chan, he transcribed all the stacks of account books.
Before evening, all the account books piled up on the desk were delivered to the imperial study.
Jiang Chan rolled his eyes and couldn't help but sneer. Fake accounts are also done professionally, and some things can be seen at a glance. For example, whose eggs are so expensive, one or two pieces of silver?
Thanks to his strong mental arithmetic ability, after reading an account book, Jiang Chan already has the answer in his heart. Father-in-law Xu and the little eunuchs were busy all afternoon, and Jiang Chan finished reading them all at seven o'clock in the evening.
Qingzhu came over to rub her shoulders: "Niangniang, rest for a while." ”
"There's no rush. Jiang Chan leaned on the chair, "Father-in-law Xu, send all the mourning family to this side to the household department, and explain the past things honestly and clearly, otherwise you will be sent directly to the criminal department." ”
Looking at the account book that was full of small mountains high, and there were only a few books that were left aside, Father-in-law Xu couldn't help but speak, this time the household department is going to be purged?
"Yes, Niangniang!" called a dozen or so little eunuchs, and carried the account books back to the household department. The officials of the household department are all there, after all, Zhou Si has just been beaten during the day, and few people really dare to go back now.
Even if they are pretended, they are all pretending to be conscientious. Seeing Father-in-law Xu coming over with the little eunuchs, Lu Jing hurriedly walked over: "I don't know if my father-in-law came over so late, what important things did he order?"
Gonggong Xu shook off the dust: "Our family doesn't have any orders, No, these are all sent by Niangniang after reading our family, Niangniang instructed, whoever is circled out will honestly explain it clearly, otherwise go to the prison of the Criminal Department!"
As soon as these words came out, the faces of several officials changed. picked up an account book on it casually, and the purpose was one or two pieces of silver, which was specially circled by Jiang Cicada, and the face of an official became even more bitter.
This is why he also saw that something was wrong, which family's eggs are so expensive, one or two pieces of silver? But this matter also made the Queen Mother hold it, isn't this a ready-made pigtail for people?
Seeing that these people's faces kept changing, Gonggong Xu said with a sharp voice: "Niangniang confessed, if she confessed, Niangniang was magnanimous, if she was still hidden, the Criminal Department would be idle." ”
Is the Criminal Department idle? The Criminal Department is not idle at all. Liu Cheng and a group of officials from the Criminal Department have been busy handling the cases of Wei Furen and others since yesterday.
There is the evidence given by Jiang Chan, and then there is the list of account books and gold, silver and jewelry found from the house of Wei Furen and others, it is really conclusive evidence.
So up to now, the Criminal Department is still working overtime, intending to pry open the mouths of Wei Furen and other rats, and it is bound to not let them take away any secrets.
After sending off Father-in-law Xu, the officials of the household department were full of bitterness.
Lu Jing frowned, he is a household servant, he has been pressed by Zhou Si for so many years and can't get out, but he didn't expect Zhou Si to be masturbated once, he temporarily took over the position of the household secretary, he must take advantage of this time to behave well.
Yesterday, Jiang Chan promoted new officials, and he saw that the queen mother promoted officials who were down-to-earth and practical, and this was an opportunity, and he must seize it.
Besides, for so many years, just because he is not in the same vein as the left minister, if he hadn't stood upright, it is estimated that he would not have been able to mix in the court for a long time.
Seeing that the faces of the other officials were blue and white for a while, Lu Jing sighed: "Let's deal with the matter at hand, Niangniang is generous, if everyone explains it clearly, there will not be many serious consequences." ”
He looked through the account book sent by Jiang Chan, and made annotations during the period, all of which hit the nail on the head. There are some unreasonable places, and he has to think about them carefully, but he didn't expect to be pointed out by the queen mother.
In the evening, the officials of the household department did not go back all night, and their eyes were all red. In front of Jiang Chan, Gonggong Xu sent a stack of folds: "Niangniang, this is the fold just sent by the household." ”
Jiang Chan had already dressed properly, and took a fold casually, Jiang Chan glanced at it a few times: "This Lord Lu Jing seems to be a practical person." ”
