Out of the Yangzhou Wei Command Envoy Yamen, Yang Lian's expression became serious, and she turned her head to look at Xu Si, the housekeeper of the Wei State Mansion: "He can't be trusted!" ”

Xu Si was slightly stunned, and then said with a little hesitation: "This can't be, right?" ”

Yang Lian's words made Xu Si feel a little uncomfortable in his heart, Yang Lian was questioning the prestige of the Wei State Mansion.

Without arguing with Xu Si, Yang Lian turned her head expressionlessly, Yang Lian knew that she couldn't wait for this matter, and she had to do it herself. After thinking about it, Yang Lian opened her mouth and said, "Go back to the garrison yamen!" ”

Beijing, Forbidden City, Xianyang Palace.

Zhu Houzhao put down the account book in his hand expressionlessly, then stood up and stretched, still a little tired. His gaze swept forward, and in front of Zhu Houzhao was a group of small eunuchs. These little eunuchs were transferred from the Inner Study Hall, and they were all smart and clever people.

The inner study hall is actually a place to train eunuchs, and the emperor of the Ming Dynasty knows the importance of the quality of eunuchs, so he has also put effort into the training of eunuchs. The inner study hall is such a place, teaching eunuchs to read and write, and the eunuchs who come out here are at least coarse and ink. Taught since childhood, it is likely that it will not be a problem to take the test, at least you can test a showman.

If you learn well, you may be able to take the Jinshi exam, which is why many eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty love vassal elegance, and the great eunuch Feng Bao has not been promoted on the Qingming Shanghe map.

However, the dozen or so people selected by Zhu Houzhao were not asked to write and draw, Zhu Houzhao came to them to settle accounts, and after a few days of simple training, Zhu Houzhao handed over Arabic numerals and simple addition, subtraction, multiplication and division to them. These little eunuchs originally also learned arithmetic, but they learned all arithmetic, although they didn't pay much attention to it on weekdays, but they also had some foundation.

Zhu Houzhao asked those who did not learn well to transfer the book, that is, to convert the records on the account book into Arabic numerals, and then divide them into two lines of income and expenditure, and those who learned well sat there and calculated the accounts with a plate.

You must know that this is the prince's errand, if you do it well, it is a step to the sky, these little eunuchs naturally dare not slack off, and when they learn from Zhu Houzhao in the previous life, it is called a stealing and tricky, and the efficiency is completely incomparable.

"It really hasn't changed at all!" Zhu Houzhao flipped through the calculated account book, and said with emotion, secretly reporting, omitting reporting, concealing reporting, all kinds of deductions can be found here. Zhu Houzhao turned his head to look at Liu Jin, and said with a smile: "Let you go out to check the price, how is the inquiry, is there any false report here?" ”

"Back to Your Highness, most of them are falsely reported!" Liu Jin didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly said.

So far, Liu Jin naturally doesn't dare to lie, he urgently needs to consolidate his position, so he naturally doesn't dare to lie to Zhu Houzhao here, besides, he can't hide this matter, he doesn't say that there are other people who say it. In addition, these people in the eighth game are not worthy of Liu Jin's protection, who are these people, their status is not high, and their hearts are quite big.

"The few have been falsely reported by 20%, the more have been falsely reported by 40%, and there are occasionally one or two flippers!" Glancing at Zhu Houzhao, Liu Jin said cautiously.

Zhu Houzhao was not as angry as Liu Jin thought, he just nodded lightly, and he was not angry because Zhu Houzhao was prepared in his heart. Not to mention this in Daming, even in later generations, it is a common thing, Zhu Houzhao has personally experienced, once Zhu Houzhao's unit bought a four-wheeled electric car, the price was 5,500 yuan, and the actual market price was 2,002.

This kind of thing is normal, the daily rise is two or four percent, and occasionally one vote is doubled, this is a routine operation, and Zhu Houzhao is not worried about this at all.

"Haven't you finished the investigation yet?" Zhu Houzhao turned his head and asked.

Eight bureaus to check the accounts, naturally it is necessary to check one bureau at a time, and it is impossible to carry out at the same time, Zhu Houzhao is ready to pull out one bureau to get it first.

"Back to Your Highness, the War Bureau has been investigated, and the remaining ones can be closed!" Liu Jin hurriedly said.

Zhu Houzhao nodded and ordered, "You go and find Zhang Yong!" ”

"Yes, Your Highness!" Liu Jin agreed, and hurriedly walked out, his steps were very brisk, but his heart was very heavy, could it be that His Royal Highness was going to reuse Zhang Yong?

Zhang Yong is also an old man in the palace, he entered the palace at the age of ten, and he also knows how to observe words and feelings, and he was promoted to the right supervisor of the internal official prison very early, which can be regarded as a promising future. After Zhu Youzhu ascended the throne, Zhang Yong was given Maoling Sixiang, which was degraded, but in fact, it was just to clean up his relationship, and he was transferred back to the prince's side to serve in the eighth year of Hongzhi.

In addition to Liu Jin, Zhang Yong is a little eunuch who is more than Zhu Houzhao, and now that Zhang Yong is about to gain power, Liu Jin's heart is naturally uncomfortable.

Zhu Houzhao naturally knew about this, and he did it on purpose, the eunuch can't be favored just like the courtier can be autocratic, this Zhu Houzhao understands. Liu Jin spent the most time serving by his side, and he was also the most favored, so Zhu Houzhao naturally couldn't let him hold too much power. Soon Zhang Yong came, although he didn't know what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was looking for him, but Zhang Yong knew that it must be a good thing when he saw Liu Jin's stinky face.

"Your Highness, the slave is here!" After Zhang Yong came in, he hurriedly lay on the ground and saluted Zhu Houzhao.

Waving his hand, Zhu Houzhao motioned for Zhang Yong to get up, and then said: "Here is the account book of the War Bureau, which records the warehouse inventory and the number of craftsmen of the War Bureau, you take someone to check it, check whether the goods in the warehouse are reconciled, whether the number of craftsmen is qualified, this War Bureau will be yours in the future, so you had better find out some clearly, now find out that it is someone else's sin, and when you go to the War Bureau, it will be your sin." ”

Zhang Yong was stunned for a moment, and then he was ecstatic in his heart, His Royal Highness was in charge of the eight bureaus, although he had ideas in his heart, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly, and he was the first.

"Your Highness, rest assured, the slave and maid must check it carefully!" Zhang Yong hurriedly assured.

"Go ahead!" Zhu Houzhao nodded, and then commanded.

Originally, Zhu Houzhao wanted to see if there was a suitable person, and if there was a suitable one, then stay, after all, it was not very good to replace them with their own people. However, after reading the accounts of the War Bureau, Zhu Houzhao knew that these people could not be saved, and he still had to be replaced. The people who Zhu Houzhao can change are naturally these people around him, otherwise he would have no one to use.

"I hope there's still something left in the barn!" Zhu Houzhao picked up the account book and sighed softly, obviously most of the expenses in the palace were put into his pocket by these people.

The civil officials and gentry suck the blood of the country, and the eunuchs and servants suck the blood of the royal family, and they are really happier when they suck it!
