Chapter 422: The Hidden Dragon Enters the Sea
"Little Zhengtai?" Li Shimin couldn't help but feel awe-inspired.
Seeing that Deng Jian on weekdays, he is ordinary, but he can be comparable to Chen Zhengtai?
Li Shimin looked at Chen Zhengtai and said: "You have to be clear, this matter is very important, and what is involved is my ...... No, it is millions of dollars and food in the imperial court, unless someone can overcome obstacles and make a big breakthrough, it can succeed! β
"Your Majesty." Chen Zhengtai said: "If the son is not sure, he naturally does not dare to take on this relationship." Xiao Zhengtai is a person, no, Deng Jian is a person...... Loyalty, the minister is sure of him. β
"Good." Li Shimin had a murderous aura on his face at this time.
It's just a matter of pit elsewhere.
How dare you cheat my money?
Do you really think I'm a fool?
Although Zhang Qian's reminder is still in his ears, Li Shimin can't swallow this breath.
How can this be reasonable, so blatant, I simply don't take me seriously!
"Then, I will order Deng Jian to investigate this matter thoroughly." Li Shimin said one by one: "No matter who is involved, I will not tolerate it. β
Chen Zhengtai breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, the Chen family has begun to slowly lay out.
What the third uncle said is not wrong, if you don't form a party, others will form a group and trample you under your feet.
But the foundation of the Chen family is really weak.
Even if these children and protΓ©gΓ©s are cultivated, they are still too young after all, and when they slowly grow up and become towering trees, I am afraid that if they do not have ten years, twenty or even thirty years, it may not be enough.
In this case, it is not impossible to do so, that is...... Pull out the seedlings to help grow.
If you don't push these people to the most dangerous places, how can you let them be tempered with a thousand trials?
The current raid on the Dou family is a great credit, of course, the premise of everything is that you have no life to take it.
That's a wreck!
Chen Zhengtai got the order, so he hurriedly ordered someone to find Deng Jian.
Deng Jian was on duty, and he was suddenly called out, looking at his ancestor with a puzzled expression.
saw Chen Zhengtai with a serious face, looking Deng Jian up and down.
Looking at Chen Zhengtai's expression, Deng Jian felt uneasy in his heart, thinking that he was going to be scolded.
Unexpectedly, Chen Zhengtai really said: "Since entering the palace and becoming a Hanlin on duty, have you learned anything?"
"Back to the words of the ancestor." Deng Jian calmed down, thought for a while, and said, "The students are ignorant and don't learn much. β
"Didn't learn anything? What about the rules of the palace, the subordination between the courts and the exchange of official documents? β
Deng Jian smiled bitterly: "Cheng Ri is just around the way, although I can hear some words?" But students aren't smart people? Compared to many ministers, not much is known. β
Is this both modest? Truth again.
Deng Jiannai was born in poverty? He is not as familiar with these people as Changsun Chong. And the structure of the imperial court is very complicated, what minister? What loose officials, what knights? Just the long list of official names? It's all jerky!
Not only that, but there are all kinds of hidden rules and unspoken rules in it, and he is even more foggy, and he often has to accompany him? Want to check the notes at any time? I have seen a lot of this music, and sometimes I get dizzy, because this thing looks similar on the surface, and it is decent? However, there are many different words in it.
After Deng Jian joined the company? Is it inferior, because he found? The same Hanlin as him, those from the world? A lot of things? One click? After all...... Most of their relatives and friends are officials, and they have been exposed to many of the tricks and unspoken rules in it since they fell to the ground.
But Deng Jian is a poor peasant, and in this circle, his eyes are completely black.
Chen Zhengtai sighed: "So, after joining the company, what friends can you make?" β
Deng Jian shook his head again: "Speaking of which, students are even more ashamed, students and many people are difficult to get along, they only feel that they are outsiders, and they rarely deal with people on weekdays." β
This is also true.
As soon as I heard your surname Deng, I asked you where you came from, and when I talked about your county, I wanted to ask you who the third ancestor was, and then asked this, I couldn't help but be intimate, and I would say that when you said this, your third ancestor and my ancestor had been an official in the same dynasty, or had an in-law, so that the relationship was close, so I asked your relatives and friends, and asked, hey, so-and-so traveled with me, and your so-and-so brother actually had a certain state with my second uncle, So the relationship is closer, everyone naturally has to talk about some common understanding and people, the more they talk, the more harmonious they are, and after that, they wish everyone was holding hands and wanted to worship the handle.
But Deng Jian is different, when I learned that your surname was Deng, I asked the county wang, no. Ask you which place Deng you are from, you said that the Deng family in a certain place in Guanzhong, people pondered, this such and such a place, there is no Deng family, and then asked you, since your hometown is such and such a place, can you recognize such and such and such a place? I don't know!
I really don't know it, and it's not a lie.
When Deng Jian said this, he couldn't help but feel ashamed.
At the beginning, Chen Zhengtai cultivated himself like this, how did he know that after he entered the court, he was doing nothing, and if he wanted to come to this life, he could only spend the rest of his life in this waste.
Many of the great ambitions that were made in the past in school have now been burned like fireworks, and then they have been extinguished in an instant.
Who knows, Chen Zhengtai slapped his thigh, and said excitedly: "Ah, I expected you to be like this, Deng Jian, good, the court needs people like you." β
"Ah......" Deng Jian looked at Chen Zhengtai with an incredulous expression.
saw Chen Zhengtai said excitedly: "People outside say that you are Xiao Zhengtai, I didn't believe it, but now I finally believe it." A minister like you is what His Majesty needs most at the moment, and this time, His Majesty intends to entrust you with a heavy task and let you raid the Dou family. β
Raid Dou's house......
This is a big case, Deng Jian mentioned it more than once in the recital and will, involving many ministries and halls, and also alarming many big people!
Deng Jian couldn't help but be dumbfounded, he couldn't imagine how such a big thing could ...... will hand it over to himself as a seven-grade petty official.
I saw Chen Zhengtai say: "From today onwards, you will be in charge of this matter, and I have recommended you to Your Majesty." β
"What?" Deng Jian was shocked, looking at Chen Zhengtai's eyes, they turned slightly red.
Recommended me?
The ancestor actually valued me like this?
My Deng Jian doesn't have a good background, and I am also unknown to everyone in the court, and my ancestor still values it so much?
Deng Jian didn't get carried away by excitement, and asked an important question: "It's just...... How to raid? β
"Can't be raided?" Chen Zhengtai looked at Deng Jian, who was eager for knowledge, and couldn't help but sigh: "A raid is a raid, it's like ...... Not...... You're a general, you've won the battle, and the city, now it's yours, and then you're picking up the guys and sweeping away the contents of it. Now the Dou family is such an empty house, you kick the door in, and take anything valuable when you see it. Do you get it now? β
It's that simple......
Deng Jian felt incredible, so he couldn't help but say, "That's all? β
Chen Zhengtai said seriously: "I, Chen Zhengtai, still can't lie to you?" β
Deng Jian suddenly became frightened, and hurriedly said: "Don't dare, don't dare, the student just thinks ......"
Impatiently listened to him, Chen Zhengtai said: "From now on, you can start working, all in all, as long as it is the money and land of the Dou family, you have to get it back for me, but ...... What worries me most now is what happens if someone covets the money, and then there will be a lot of people who will come to you to have a relationship with you. β
Deng Jian didn't think about it and said, "I'...... I don't have much friendship with people. β
Chen Zhengtai was naturally very satisfied, so he said: "But what if someone wants to threaten and lure you? β
When Deng Jian heard this, a wave of scholarly anger suddenly surged into his heart.
"I have read books for so many years, and in the books of sages, it is clear that a gentleman should ......"
Without waiting for Deng Jian to continue to memorize his texts, Chen Zhengtai patted him on the shoulder with great relief: "Good job, you are really a unique talent, don't worry, I will be your backing, you can rest assured and bold to do it." β
"Oh." Deng Jian nodded.
In fact, he doesn't understand the twists and turns.
And the matter of raiding the Dou family, the water is very deep...... But...... Deng Jian obviously didn't know the depth, what he thought was actually very simple, since it was the will, and it was the strong support of the master, then it would be over.
At this time, Deng Jian thought of an important question: "It's just ...... The students don't have any manpower here. β
Chen Zhengtai squinted, looked at Deng Jian and said, "This is really difficult, why don't you send a group of people from the school to follow you to the internship?" β
Deng Jian hesitated and said, "Ah...... Will it delay their academic ......?"
"Oh, studying is not done behind closed doors, you should let your senior brother take them out to see the world, how many people do you want to transfer, let's go to the school."
Deng Jian's heart was surging at this time, and there was a breath of qi surging in his heart, and he seemed to have suddenly regained the fighting spirit he had at the beginning.
He nodded heavily and said, "Student understands." β
β¦β¦
On the same day, a decree came out, ordering Deng Jian to be the messenger and thoroughly investigate the case of the Dou family.
This will ...... In fact, it didn't cause much of a stir.
It's just a small Hanlin, it's not worth mentioning, and it's nothing if it's just a seven-grade petty official.
If His Majesty asks Fang Gong or Du Gong to investigate, it will be bad and appoint the eldest grandson Wuji, maybe there may really be some eyebrows.
Can such a person be sent...... Who cares!
Many people's dogs are more majestic than such a person when they go out.
The seven officials in front of the prime minister's door.
I think that His Majesty can't pull it off, and he is unwilling, but he is afraid of making a big trouble, so he simply came up with such a painless will.
All is calm.
Deng Jian had already started to handle cases in Erpigou, and directly hung up a Qin mission to handle the case.
Then he recruited hundreds of juniors, and first went to Dali Temple and the Criminal Department to remove a large number of official documents.
This is all about the original seizure of the Dou family's account books, and there were more than a dozen cars of documents.
Dali Temple and the Criminal Department obviously didn't take these people to heart.
Not to mention that there are countless of these accounts, it is very troublesome to clean up, and most of the accounts are made with noses and eyes, besides, even if you find a cat greasy?
Xiao Zhengtai ......
Even Chen Zhengtai is not afraid of coming, not to mention that it is still short and small?
The people outside were full of disdain and contempt, but Deng Jian didn't care at all.
He was very conscientious and showed the energy he had when he was studying.
Immediately, he ordered someone to start checking the accounts.
The students in the university hall are all excellent in arithmetic, after all, the foundation is solid, everyone coordinates the division of labor, and a pen account begins to settle.
It took three or four days to clean it up.
Deng Jian's face was blank, because these accounts were probably right.
The proceeds from the sale of land and stocks are as huge as 3.3 million yuan, and the land is obviously sold at a low price, and according to the market price, even if it is sold for 4.5 million yuan, it is not impossible.
And there are also a large number of calligraphy and paintings, a large number of gold and silver jewelry.
It's just strange that the vast majority of calligraphy and paintings are fakes.
That's right......
A big family like the Dou family actually collects fakes, and if this is said, no one will believe it.
But in this account, the result of the appraisal is indeed a fake, and the fake cannot be fake.
People who dare to love the Dou family are not cheeky?
Deng Jian immediately began to look at some of the interrogation records of the Dou family's relatives, which could indeed be matched, how much foreign debt they owed, and how many of the calligraphy and paintings in the family were true and how much were false, it was clear at a glance.
It can be said that ...... Although it may seem a little unreasonable.
But judging from the human and physical evidence, it couldn't be clearer, orderly, and it seems that there is nothing wrong!
At this time, Deng Jian frowned deeply and began to doubt life.
So he shut himself up in his room and was silent for a full day and a night.
So much so that many people can't help but get anxious.
Miyazato ...... also sent someone to assist, saying that he came by order, but it was actually Zhang Qian's person, named Liu Lishi.
As soon as Liu Lishi saw this Hanlin, he felt that this might be just a formality, so he didn't think much about it.
It can be seen that this guy suddenly locked himself in the room, so you pretend to do something, even if you hand it over when the time comes, you don't have much property to recover, it seems that there is no merit and hard work!
This Liu Lishi was in a hurry, and he was circling outside, and then he couldn't help but bang on the door desperately: "Brother Deng, Xiao Zhengtai...... What's wrong with you, what can't you say out about, you haven't eaten all day, and the slave still needs to go back to the palace to restore the progress, you squeak. β
Deng Jian ignored him, and there was still no movement in the room.
It wasn't until the middle of the night that the door opened.
Liu Lishi, who had been guarding outside, suddenly cheered up and rushed forward without saying a word.
saw that Deng Jian was haggard at the moment, but his eyes were wide open and unkempt, like a down-and-out scholar.
"I see." Deng Jian suddenly opened his mouth.
Liu Lishi looked at him strangely and said, "What, what do you understand?" β
Deng Jian immediately said word by word: "I understand why Your Majesty and Master Ancestor let me investigate thoroughly, and so many belongings that dare to love have been swallowed by others." β
Liu Lishi shook his head and stared at him dumbfounded.
Yikes...... You...... Only now do you understand?
