Chapter 107: Secret Words on Paper

Finally finished, Qin Siyang casually took the cloth towel, carefully wiped his body, ignored the girl who collapsed on the bed, casually threw away the sweat-stained cloth towel, got out of bed expressionlessly, picked up his clothes and put them on slowly.

The girl who was paralyzed on the bed, her eyes were closed, her face had long lost the brilliance she had when she first came, her hair was scattered at this moment, her hands and feet were blue and black, and she had fainted to death before Qin Siyang could withdraw from her body.

Qin Siyang got dressed and looked at the person on the bed, feeling bored for a while. stepped forward and pulled the silk red silk quilt, raised it casually, covered the person from beginning to end, and then slapped his hands twice.

The eunuch guarding the outhouse heard the clapping sound and immediately walked in quickly, and was surprised to see the Son of Heaven standing neatly in front of the bed, his coat had been put on, and the jade belt around his waist had been firmly fastened, and there was no need for anyone to serve him. Surprised, and then looked closely, but there was no trace of Niangniang in the inner room.

This is......

smelling the fishy smell in the house, and then remembering that Shi Cai heard the shrill shouts of the woman outside the house, it was really like killing a pig, this ...... That's wrong.

looked at the bed with the heaviest fishy smell, but saw the red silk quilt on it slightly raised, and wondered for a while, could it be that the whole quilt was covered under the quilt?

The leading eunuch was about to turn around and order a palace maid to come over, but he heard the clueless order of the Son of Heaven: "Take it away." ”

The eunuch was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked: "Your Majesty, what do you take with you?"

"The man in the bed. ”

"Bed...... Mother......

"What's the matter? This is the Qianqing Palace, don't take it away, do you want to betray the ancestral system and let the concubine stay here for the night?"

"The minions don't dare," the leading eunuch bowed down and looked at the slightly bulging red silk quilt on the bed, "But it's inconvenient for the mother to take it away like this, why don't you call the palace maid to come over and serve the maid first, and clean the body for the mother, how about the minions take it away?"

The eunuch said and looked at Qin Siyang cautiously, and muttered in his heart: Your Majesty, you are the same, no matter how you have to clean yourself first, how can you put on all your clothes neatly as soon as you finish your work, don't you think the fishy smell is sticky?

Qin Siyang ignored it, and dropped his words expressionlessly: "There are no concubines in the Qianqing Palace. ”

The leading eunuch wanted to say something more, but suddenly heard a woman's slight moan from under the futon, and after a while, a small hand wrapped in bruises and bruises pulled down the quilt with difficulty, revealing the girl's messy green silk and pale and bloodless face.

"Concubine Niangniang. The leading eunuch bowed slightly in shock.

The girl on the bed had a pale face, looked back and forth with her eyes, and murmured, "You ...... You ......"

Seeing this, the leading eunuch hurriedly stepped forward: "Don't move, the slave will call the palace maid to come over and help the lady cleanse herself." ”

"No......" The girl on the bed looked pained, and tried her best to prop herself up and said again and again, "I don't ...... Don't purify yourself, go to ...... Go to the Queen Mother...... Aunt Queen Mother, take me there...... Go to the Queen Mother's aunt, ...... quickly."

The eunuchs were about to say something, but they saw the Son of Heaven turn around and said coldly: "The people were brought by you, so be less verbose, hurry up and take the lead, there is no place for women to take a clean bath in the Qianqing Palace." Saying that, he snorted coldly, didn't even look at the girl who was already so pale on the bed, waved his long sleeves, turned around and strode away outside the house.

These are really the two people who have just had a good time, and the eunuchs in the house are completely stupid.

Not to mention how the eunuch rolled up and took away the concubine Niangniang, who had broken half of her life, but said that Qin Siyang left the house and left the side courtyard, ignoring the eunuchs and palace maids who kept talking to each other along the way and looked at him like monsters.

As soon as I turned the east courtyard, it was rare quiet, there was not a single eunuch and palace maid, and there was no annoying whispering. Qin Siyang slowed down, squinted his eyes slightly, and suddenly saw a person rushing out from under the small stone mountain in the corner of the small courtyard.

The figure was swift, and as soon as it appeared, it came to the front of him, bowed and saluted, "Holy Lord." ”

It is Zhang Xin'er, one of the two most favored servants of the Son of Heaven.

Qin Siyang raised his forehead slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Something?"

Xin'er nodded and took out an envelope in her sleeve and presented it with both hands: "This is new news." ”

Qin Siyang took the envelope, but he didn't fold it, and only put it in his arms properly. Just wanted to ask, the cold expression suddenly darkened, and his face quickly eased, and at the same time, he stroked Xin'er's white cheeks with one hand, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and he said with a smile: "It's still Xin'er's caring, understand my thoughts, don't kneel, it hurts to see my heart, get up, you can accompany me today." ”

Seeing this, Zhang Xin'er's expression on her face quickly changed, she smiled charmingly, raised her head slightly, and called softly: "Your Majesty." The whole person leaned up as soft as a boneless.

Just as Xin'er was leaning closer, a person leaned out of the front of the corridor, but it was a woman dressed as a second-class palace maid, and she glanced at the Son of Heaven and the servants who were attached together with an inquiring gaze, and then frowned and turned to the other side.

Qin Siyang helped Xin'er, the smile on the corner of her lips did not decrease, Xin'er half leaned on Qin Siyang, smiling again and again, ignoring the gaze that explored all the way, the two of them clinged to each other, laughing and moving lightly, turned out of the east courtyard, bypassed the corner gate, entered the backyard, and entered the dormitory.

The eunuch palace maid on duty in the dormitory thought that the emperor would not appear tonight, but suddenly saw the two people who walked in together, and they only stared at people for a while, but they didn't come back to their senses, and they didn't do anything, and Ann forgot to ask, so stunned like a row of wooden people standing in place.

Everyone knows that tonight the emperor is going to be in the side courtyard Pang Xing Guifei Niangniang, that is what the Queen Mother has been looking forward to for a long time, how to change her mind, and she hugged this man who is neither male nor female.

It's a rule that is completely gone.

Qin Siyang didn't care, he only sat down on the pit with Xin'er in his arms, and twisted his ass in a pretended way, which made Xin'er cry out in pain, and the eunuchs and palace maids who were still stunned when they heard it, it was Ling Ran who came back to his senses all of a sudden, and hurriedly stepped forward, looking at the two of them who were completely glued together, and didn't know how to salute.

"Prepare for the bath. Qin Siyang commanded in a cold voice.

The eunuchs and palace maids, who were embarrassed to quietly withdraw from the house, hurriedly agreed when they heard this command, and then turned around the west corner in unison, where there was a small door leading to the dressing room and bathroom.

In the past, when it was dark, the bath in the bathroom would be filled with hot water. Because the saint went to the side courtyard tonight, the bathroom here was not prepared with water, so I had to rush to prepare it at this time.

After two quarters of an hour, the son of heaven, who was impatient and ordered Xin'er to sing a song casually, finally waited for the palace maid to prepare a reply with hot water.

With a smile, in the strange eyes of the eunuch and palace maid, Qin Siyang hugged Xin'er, and laughed while twisting his waist: "Xin'er can't pretend to be lazy, I'm not feeling good today, you have to serve hard, or I won't spare you." ”

Xin'er was screwed in pain, and agreed with a smile while begging for mercy while eating.

attracted the attention of a group of palace maids and eunuchs.

The two made love all the way into the bathroom together.

After a while, there were various sounds in the bathroom one after another, and the eunuch and palace maid who were guarding outside were blushing and red, and I really didn't know how the saint and the servant washed inside.

It was more than half an hour, until the willows on the moon, the movement in the bathroom was normal, and after another quarter of an hour, the eunuchs and palace maids who were guarding outside saw their sons of heaven and male pets, all wearing loose underwear of one color, and a thin green gauze open coat on the outside, and walked out of the bathroom with both arms in their arms.

When I returned to the outhouse, I turned over the fake intimacy, and when I saw that the night was dark, I sent off a group of subordinates, turned into the inner room together, closed the door, and bypassed the picture screen.

Inside, there was no sound outside, so Qin Siyang pushed Xin'er away in annoyance and let him go and take the quilt and sleep on the carved pit near the window.

The four are silent, the night is twilight, and the stars are accompanied by the moon.

Qin Siyang leaned on the head of the bed and was stunned for a moment before taking out the envelope in his arms and unfolding it with the faint gauze lamp in front of the case.

When I opened the envelope, there was a ghost drawing on a piece of paper.

Even if a person with good eyes looks at it, he will only think that it is a full piece of paper scribbled by an ignorant child, and what is written in this letter can only be fully understood by the members of the inner cabinet of the Qilin Pavilion.

Qin Siyang carefully discerned, only to see that the paper was written in code: The list of officials who are greedy for ink in Jiangnan has arrived. Chu Tianyun suddenly entered Beijing to meet Tian Heng, and he was afraid that he would be selected as a show girl. This year's income book of the household department has been secretly recorded recently, and I am afraid that it has reached the hands of the queen mother. The girl is fine, don't worry, master.

After reading it, Qin Siyang narrowed his eyebrows, sighed silently after a while, took away the lampshade at the head of the bed, threw a piece of letter paper with ghost drawings into the fire, and watched the letter turn into ashes in the firelight, then put down the gauze and lay down on his back.

Long Xingwei dispatched most of his manpower to investigate the corruption of Jiangnan officials in Jiangnan, which was secretly reported to Yin Xuezheng when he used his excuse to become an official again last time. At the same time, they were also told that they had found out the whereabouts of the list of corrupt officials and would soon be able to retrieve it.

Qin Siyang first heard about the matter in the account books of the household department, but he first heard about it from Li Chaochen, and he had not seen Yin Xuezheng at that time. At that time, Li Chaochen told him that when his classmates in the household department were carefully counting the account books of the household department, they found that the household department had a huge amount of money from unknown sources for many years. It is precisely by relying on these huge amounts of money from unknown sources that the Ministry of Household can make ends meet year after year when the tax and silver cannot make ends meet, the rivers are hit by heavy floods, the war in the north is tight, the white plague in the seven provinces of the northwest provinces, the rebellion of the miners in Shanxi, etc., when the silver is in great need, the Ministry of Industry is the leader, and the other ministries are not appropriate to waste money, and there is a silver side to the Ministry of Industry and other departments to waste silver, and on the other hand, secretly allocate silver money to tide over the disaster situation in various places. If it weren't for the abundant silver to deal with, and the successive accidents in the past few years, I don't know if the world would be able to barely maintain the stability it has today. It's just that maybe the world has already been in turmoil, and there have been rebellions one after another.

As for where this batch of silver came from, Li Chaochen and his classmates did not know. Gu Li Chaochen said that there was this unknown source of silver in the household department, and it should be impossible for his classmates to know about it. Because his classmates who were dragged to the household department to settle accounts, they were only required to calculate the expenses of various sub-accounts, general ledgers, and detailed accounts of income and expenditure in previous years, and they could not see them.

Only Li Chaochen's name is Xu Chengtai, a classmate of Zi Wenyu, but he is a very meticulous person with a good memory. He and his younger brother were sent to the Ministry of Industry to calculate the accounts of the Ministry of Industry, and because of his good popularity, he was able to record the actual income and expenditure of the Ministry of Industry over the years. Later, by coincidence, because of his outstanding ability, he was called to help settle the accounts of the Criminal Department and the Military Department, so he also had a bottom in his heart. secretly reconciled the income and expenditure of these three ministries, and unexpectedly found that the sum of the expenditures of these three ministries for several consecutive years almost caught up with the total expenditures reported by the household department to the court that year. It's not right to think about it.,Just think it's just the sum of the three.,There are other three parts he doesn't know.,So he didn't add it.。 But no matter what the three think, it is impossible to use only the remaining little bit of silver every year. In this way, there is only one possibility, the clear account reported by the household department to the court has shrunk a lot of water in terms of expenditure!
