The Wu Ya family belongs to the Manchurian Zhenghuangqi Internal Affairs Bureau's Baoyi family, which means that this family, its children and grandchildren, have been mixed in the Internal Affairs Office for generations. Wu Yashi himself entered the palace as a palace maid through a small election, and then was favored by Kangxi and used to cover for the pregnant Shuyun, and then somehow got Kangxi's eyes, and climbed step by step, until she became one of the four concubines.

This time, the problem was a group of people led by the Wu Ya clan's clan brother, the Guangchu Division of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the head of the Liuku Langzhong, and the Wu Ya clan's Amba, several of whom were from the Wu Ya clan.

Guangchu Division is Kangxi's small treasury, and Kangxi has always watched it very closely. A total of six warehouses were built to store all the royal property.

Valuables such as gold, silver, beads, jade, coral, agate and precious stones were stored in the vault. The silver treasury is located in the Hongyi Pavilion on the west side of the Taihe Hall of the Forbidden City. 25 people were also arranged to keep an eye on it day and night.

Except for Kangxi and Shuyun, anyone else can only open the library at a certain time and under certain conditions. In order to prevent the guards from stealing, the guards did not have the key, and the key was kept by the guards of the Qianqing Palace, and there was more than one. When the warehouse is opened, a number of specific officials must be present, and people entering and leaving the warehouse must be strictly searched; When the treasury is closed, it must be signed by a number of specific officials and a seal must be affixed to the lock.

Every month, the Ministry of Internal Affairs will make a statistical summary of the receipts and expenditures of these six warehouses, and Kangxi will conduct random inspections from time to time, and at the end of the year, it will also listen to the report of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and in addition, the treasury will be comprehensively inventoried every five years.

Even with such strict precautions, there are still problems. The previous reorganization was due to the fact that a large number of treasury stores other than the silver treasury were stolen and sold. Or trade in the old with the new, shoddy. provoked Kangxi's anger. At his behest, Fuquan shot ruthlessly. It's really a lot of killing. Then it was handed over to Shuyun, the most favored concubine, to be in charge personally.

But even with such a thunderous method, it still failed to deter this group of greedy minions. It's only been a few months, huh? I'm afraid the blood at the entrance of the vegetable market hasn't dried up yet, and the people who distribute Ningguta haven't even arrived, so there is a problem again. It's really a man dying for money, and a bird dying for food!

Shuyun was speechless about this.

It turns out that this stall is not under Shuyun's control, Shuyun never cares, and she doesn't like to ask about these messy things, so Shuyun doesn't know some detailed information and the hidden doorways inside. I don't bother to think about it. Now that I have figured it out, I have found that the existence of the Ministry of Internal Affairs has a huge problem from the root.

It's not that the rules and regulations are bad, but the composition of the people. You want to! All of them are working together as a family, not a family, either under the same banner or as neighbors, all living in the same alley. This whole time is full of acquaintances who look up and don't look down. What's worse is that they have intermarried with each other for generations. Relatives are hidden, and there is no external supervision, if there is no problem, it is a ghost.

Take the Wuya clan as an example. As soon as something happened, it brought out several families.

Shuyun really admires the wonderful father and son of Shunzhi and Lao Kang, and I don't know what they thought at the beginning, they can actually create such a mentally retarded system, they are really gods.

The silent complaining is over. But I still have to deal with this troublesome matter.

This matter can be discovered thanks to Shuyun's careful and responsible work. When I first took over the Guangchu Division, I took a comprehensive inventory of the inventory, and it has not been a few months, and the accounts will be reconciled every month. Besides, a group of people have just been disposed of, and this is the time when the wind is tight. According to inertial thinking. This is the time when there is least a problem.

But Shuyun is different from others, she and Kangxi are a family. Kangxi's small treasury is the money in his pocket, of course, he has to keep an eye on it. Considering that during the Chinese New Year, there were more materials in and out of the library, Shuyun didn't dare to be careless, so she sent Tuan Tuan to take inventory, and also sent dragon eggs and triplets to follow. You can also exercise your child by the way. In the future, they will all set up their own doors, and those who are in charge of the house should learn more about these doorways, so as not to be deceived in the future.

I didn't expect that there was really such a bold one, who dared to commit a crime against the wind, and was caught by Tuan Tuan and the dragon eggs.

One of the problems is the tea warehouse, which stores tea leaves, human grains, incense, paper, pigments, velvet, etc. One is a porcelain warehouse, which stores porcelain, copper and tin ware.

Needless to say, the inventory of these two warehouses is quite depleted during the Chinese New Year.

Take paper as an example, Kangxi has to personally write a large number of blessing characters every New Year, giving them to close relatives, ministers, concubines, etc., and there are 9,999 and a half houses in the huge Forbidden City. This is not counting the palaces, annexes and other places, which are also used for sacrifices and other activities.

The excuse is accidentally written bad, torn, especially burned in the sacrifice, who knows how many are there? There are too many loopholes that can be used to enrich one's self ~ bag. Adhering to Kangxi's principle of not asking about trivial matters, Shuyun is too lazy to care about those who report more.

For example, in the case of porcelain, in the past month or so of the Chinese New Year, there were 1,258 damaged pieces in the accounts reported.

After the New Year, the emperor, queen mother, and concubines in the palace had nothing else to do, just took the servants to drop cups, bowls, plates, and saucers to play. This is okay, if you hear a sound during the New Year, you should be broken and safe. But where did the other 2520 pieces that disappeared go? Could it be that it was broken in advance?

Stop. That's what these guys really planned. I take it for granted that this is a safe period, and there will be no inventory on it, so I will make a batch and sell it at a good price while I am in the New Year, so I will report the loss in advance.

There is also tea, this year's Ming Qian tea has begun to be picked, and it will soon be delivered to the capital. Then even if last year's tea is old, except for Pu'er, the rest of Kangxi will not stay. Or as a share to some small concubines, or to the courtiers and clansmen. But these are all good things, all of which are top-notch famous teas and good teas that have been paid tribute from all over the world, and you can't buy them outside.

But now, except for a few, most of the bags have become high-shattered. Gao crushed is a kind of tea powder that the common people in Beijing usually drink. Even Shuyun, a person who has been inseparable from Kangxi all day long, doesn't know when he had this hobby, and his taste has become so taboo?

Then someone will ask, aren't these for concubines, courtiers, and clan relatives? What should I do if I can't get something out of my hand? Do you want to reward these high crumbs out of the dust? Do they dare to do so? Aren't you afraid that someone will sue Kangxi?

Don't say it, they really dare. How many concubines are in this world?

The palace maids and eunuchs in the palace are all from the internal affairs office, don't look at them as slaves, but the masters can't do without these slaves, they need to take care of them, and even rely on these slaves to help them do things many times. Therefore, when facing the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the rank is high, and the favored ones are fine, and the little concubines who are generally not favored dare not talk nonsense. At that time, even if it is not good to use these high crushes, you can still deal with the past if you can collect some broken tea from anywhere.

Besides, those courtiers and clan relatives, no one is bad at that point, and most of them will not offend the Internal Affairs Office for this. Even if people are slaves, they are also the emperor's slaves, and they are relatives and friends with each other, offending one is equivalent to offending a large group, do you know which one is winning the emperor's eyes, if it is because of this to give you a little stumbling in front of the emperor, you can't commit it?

Just like Cao Yin, his family is from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, his mother is Kangxi's nursing mother, he was selected as Kangxi's companion when he was a child, and now he has made Jiangning weaving, which is deeply trusted by Kangxi. Although people like this are from low backgrounds, who dares to offend them now?

There is also this Wuya clan Ba'an, my sister became a concubine in the palace and gave birth to a son, and the entire Wuya family is rising with the tide, who can't give some face.

Even if you can't see it, most of the officialdom adheres to the principle that more things are better than less, and ordinary people will not go to this trouble.

The rest of the little poke is not ordinary, don't people give some leftovers! The people of the Internal Affairs Office are the best at watching people put down dishes, and their eyes are poisonous, who can fool them, who can't fool them, then their hearts are clear.

Combined, these two items lost less than 25,000 taels of silver. For Kangxi, this is not too big a number, and it is still within a tolerable range. But the time is not right, this is provoking the majesty of Kangxi and Shuyun, and the nature is bad.

The most odious thing is that for Shuyun's birthday, the enamel porcelain designed by Kangxi himself and ordered someone to fire is also missing.

Shuyun doesn't like trouble, so she has been with Kangxi for so many years, and her birthday has not been a big deal. This year happens to be Shuyun's thirty-fifth birthday, and Kangxi wants to give Shuyun a good time. A long time ago, Kangxi began to prepare gifts. But there is no shortage of jewels and gems that those women like, and they may not even be less than those in his vault, and those boxes are actually some good things. Even Nanzhu, the size of a pigeon's egg, didn't pay attention to it, and rewarded it to the minions casually, and also played with marbles for the children, which he had seen with his own eyes.

As for other antique treasures, Kangxi also prepared a lot, but he was always not satisfied, feeling that although these things were valuable, they could not reflect his heart. After pondering and pondering, I found that the enamel color that had just emerged was good, the porcelain was fine, the color was dignified, the color was bright and beautiful, the painting was exquisite, and it combined with the charm of Western culture, which was graceful and luxurious. It just so happened that Shuyun had traveled to the West in her early years, and she had always been very interested in things there. I think this is just right for Shuyun, and she will definitely like it.

Kangxi secretly began to prepare behind Shuyun's back, wanting to surprise Shuyun (to be continued......)
