"Your Highness forgot, that person is calculating, and he will report it, otherwise, why did he go to test that power weapon for no reason......"

King Kang can't quite hear what the subordinates of the palace are talking about very clearly, the Ministry of Industry is his person, few people know about this matter, the ordnance built by the Ministry of Industry is less than two, but the power weapon used by the Ministry of Industry to inspect is also built by the Ministry of Industry, there will be no omissions at all, there is a Ministry of Industry waiter staring, who will check this?

Most of the silver withheld by the Ministry of Industry went into his treasury, and if this matter was further investigated, sooner or later it would be found on his head.

That's not what worries him the most.

He is worried about the affairs of the salt farm, Chen Guo has been a salt and iron franchise since the founding of the country, and those who can do the salt and iron business all have an official background......

Even if he is a prince, he can't afford this consequence.

King Kang suddenly regretted a little, that day on the lake of the natural residence, perhaps, he really shouldn't have hit that ......

……

Cui Min, the waiter of the Ministry of Works, is a man of King Kang.

Behind the major salt merchants involved are some powerful people in Beijing, and behind these powerful people, there is also King Kang behind him.

Looking at the information of the household department and the information that Su Mei brought back to him from the natural residence, Tang Ning could swear with his conscience that he was definitely not targeting King Kang, let alone communiqué personal vendetta.

King Kang just instructed his subordinates to hit his ship, how could he kill King Kang because of this incident......

Of course, King Kang is the prince in the end, and it is a big sin to put it on someone else, and if it is placed on him, it will definitely not lead to death, but for him, it is almost like death.

As a prince, meddling in the politics of salt and iron has touched the bottom line of Emperor Chen and the imperial court, and his behavior is more serious than King Duan's embezzlement of taxes and silver, and Emperor Chen's treatment of King Kang will not be too light.

Even whether he can keep the position of the prince depends on whether Emperor Chen thinks about it for the sake of father and son, and gives a light sentence as appropriate.

Speaking of which, if King Kang was really dealt with, wouldn't he indirectly help King Duan?

Tang Ning shook his head, even if he had no intention of helping King Duan, there was no way to do it, who knew that King Kang was bold, but both ordnance and salt politics dared to intervene......

In the Imperial Study.

Emperor Chen looked at the Hubu Shangshu and asked, "Have you calculated the fines that those salt merchants want to pay?" ”

The head of the household department arched his hand and said: "Back to Your Majesty, the household department has already calculated the approximate amount, according to the calculation of the problematic power of the Ministry of Industry, this time the salt merchants from all over the country have to pay more than 10 million taels of taxes......

Chen Huang stood up and asked in disbelief, "Ten million taels?" ”

Hubu Shangshu raised his eyes and looked at it, thinking that His Majesty was frightened by this number, and moved his mind to receive it to the Inner Mansion, and immediately said: "Your Majesty, the treasury has frequently allocated silver in recent days, if it is not replenished, I am afraid that it will not even be able to maintain the daily operation of the imperial court, and this time it will take at least five million taels ......."

Chen Huang is also a person who has seen 100 million taels of silver, so naturally he will not be frightened by 10 million taels.

It's not that he thinks it's too much silver, but it's too little, and the household doesn't dare to falsify the numbers, because his own expectations are too high.

After all, Tang Ning only brought him 100 million taels of silver from Jiangnan a few days ago, and this 10 million taels could no longer make many waves in his heart.

The total amount of money that the imperial court makes every year in salt and iron is only a few million taels, and after comparison, Emperor Chen deeply realized how big the gift Tang Ning brought back to him from Jiangnan was.

He looked at the nervous Hubu Shangshu, waved his hand, and said, "Okay, okay, this ten million taels will be given to you......"

Hube Shangshu looked at Emperor Chen, stunned for a moment, and didn't quite believe his ears.

His throat moved, and he asked tentatively: "Your Majesty means, this ten million taels ......"

"Put it all in the treasury." Emperor Chen glanced at him and said, "Do I look like an emperor who will covet the treasury silver?" ”

Hubu Shangshu came back to his senses at this time, and arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty is wise......"

Emperor Chen no longer asked about the silver, looked at the book of the household, and said: "Give those salt merchants the courage to do it, and they don't dare to touch the salt and iron, who is supporting them in Beijing?" ”

Hubu Shangshu raised his head, pursed his lips, and after a while, he mustered up the courage to say: "Back to Your Majesty, the case of the Ministry of Industry this time, I'm afraid it can't be separated from His Royal Highness King Kang......"

Emperor Chen frowned, and said in a deep voice: "What? ”

Hubu Shangshu said: "The backers behind those salt merchants are some powerful people in Beijing, and behind these powerful people, His Royal Highness King Kang should be supporting him......

Emperor Chen's face sank like water, and he said, "This bastard! ”

……

Tang Ning, the deputy attendant of the Ministry of Industry, stabbed out the officials of the Ministry of Industry to enrich their private pockets, collude with officials and businessmen, and steal national interests, and in a very short period of time, it spread all over Beijing.

This is almost the most serious fraud case that has occurred in Jingshi and even Chen Guo in recent years.

The broom star is still a broom star, the power can not be underestimated, in the Ministry of Industry just a few days, it has destroyed the entire Ministry of Industry, so that the Ministry of Industry officials are in danger, the Ministry of Industry is even more because of the lack of strictness, was fined and suspended, if this case is investigated and he has something to do with it, the position of this Shangshu is not stable.

Of course, the people of Beijing all applauded when they heard the news, and the fewer corrupt officials in the court, the happier they became.

The Ministry of Works, the Wailang and others have been arrested and taken out of prison, and the Ministry of Workers has also been recalled to Beijing for questioning, not only that, but His Majesty is bound to wipe out all the officials related to this matter, and several officials in the DPRK and China have been investigated one after another.

At the same time, there were also some rumors that seemed to be true and false, spreading among the people.

It is said that Langzhong of the Ministry of Industry deducted the ordnance and allocated silver, and a large part of it was handed over to King Kang, and those salt merchants, the backers in Beijing, were also King Kang, and the culprit in the case of the Ministry of Industry was in the palace of King Kang.

These news were just rumors at first, but after investigation, someone was shocked to find that the two cases of the Ministry of Industry were directly aimed at King Kang, even if it was not his doing, it was inseparable from him.

There are also rumors that the reason why King Kang will be investigated this time is because he offended Tang Ning, the acting attendant of the Ministry of Works, a few days ago, and this time it was the revenge of the cautious broom star against him.

Someone saw with their own eyes that a few days ago, on the lake where Jingshi naturally lived, King Kang ordered someone to deliberately hit Tang Ning's pleasure boat, and the narrow-minded Lord Tang did not retaliate at that time, but a few days later, he gave King Kang a salary from the bottom of the kettle......

The small lake in the natural residence is artificially excavated, the area is not very large, when the season is right every year, it is a good place for many dignitaries and dignitaries in Beijing to play, there are many cruise ships, and it is inevitable that they will bump and bump.

If you touch someone else's boat on weekdays, at most you will not be able to accompany you, or it will be enough to pay some silver taels.

King Kang this time, I am afraid that it is the most serious collision on the natural dwelling lake in history.

This collision will surely go down in history.

He deducted the armament and allocated silver, and intervened in the politics of salt and iron, even if he was a prince, he could not be exempted, not to mention that the Duan Wang, who was still staring at him all the time, must not let go of this opportunity, his collision on the natural residence lake is likely to knock his road to the throne astray.

Regarding this historical event that is enough to change the situation of the dynasty, there is a song in the market that says: "There are thousands of waterways, safety is the first, the ship is not standardized, and the throne is not half ......"
