Chapter 293: Demon Sin [Third Update]

"Fang Shilang?"

Tang Ning was about to walk out for a moment, the cleared account books had been handed over, what did Fang Zhe have to do with him?

Even though he has been safe in the past few days in the household, he has not relaxed his vigilance in his heart.

Fang Zhe is the left waiter of the household department, and he sits firmly in the second position of the household, although in fact it is Han Shilang who sits in the second position, but the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and the waiter who has no power is not something he can touch.

Think about it from another angle, if he was Fang Zhe, the person who had beaten him happened to be his subordinate, and he didn't look up every day to see him------ if he was Fang Zhe, the main thing that offended him would have been cold.

After changing countless angles, Tang Ning felt that he couldn't go this time.

"You go and tell Fang Shilang, just say that I have gone home from the ya." Tang Ning waved his hand, walked out of the Duzhi Ya quickly, and the moment he stepped out of the door, he saw Fang Zhe standing in front of him with his hands behind his back, looking back at him.

"It's such a coincidence, I'm about to see Fang Shilang......" Tang Ning paused, looked at him and asked, "I don't know what Fang Shilang is looking for me?" ”

Fang Zhe looked at him and said lightly, "Come in and talk about it." ”

Tang Ning followed him into a duty room with a gloomy face, Han Shilang was not there, he should have already left, and there were only Tang Ning and Fang Zhe in the duty room.

After Fang Zhe waited for him to walk in, he closed the door casually, Tang Ning didn't care about it.

If Fang Zhe wanted to do something in this duty room, it would be nothing more than self-inflicted humiliation, and he was not worried that Fang Zhe had ambushed people in this small duty room, looking around, even if all the places where he could hide people were full of people, he was not afraid.

It is a fact that he can't beat Tang Yaoyao, but for him, it is also a fact that no one in the entire household can beat him.

"The accounts of the Duzhiya liquidation have been handed over to Qian Shangshu." Fang Zhe sat down in his place and said, "In the process of calculating the accounts, you didn't encounter any problems, right?" ”

"Nope." Tang Ning shook his head and said: "Du Zhiya is only responsible for settling accounts, not for checking accounts, and there are no ins and outs of the figures, what problems can you encounter?" ”

Fang Zhe looked at him and said indifferently: "You may not know that Han Shilang is Duanwang's secret son in the household department. ”

Tang Ning was taken aback, Han Ming, the right attendant of the household department, was not bad to him, although he knew that the household department also had a secret son of Duan Wang, but he was not sure whether it was Qian Shangshu or Han Shilang, and whether it was the court or the people, there was not even a little rumor about it, Fang Zhe had slept in the Hanlin Academy for fourteen years, how could he be more informed than Su Mei's news?

Even if Su Mei never told him clearly, since the last incident, he could guess that he must have a huge and incredible intelligence network in Beijing.

He looked at Fang Zhe and asked, "How did Lord Fang know?" ”

"As long as something happens in this world, there must be some clues." Fang Zhe looked ahead and said, "If you look carefully, you can always find something." ”

Who knows if Fang Zhe is tricking him, since Han Ming is King Duan's person, and King Duan hates him to the bone, how can he be safe and sound in these days when he is in the household department?

As if he knew that Tang Ning didn't believe it, Fang Zhe casually handed over a booklet and said, "This is the tax account book of each state capital calculated by the branch of Xingyuan from the twentieth to the twenty-third year, you can take a look." ”

Tang Ning took the account book, which recorded the tax situation of the state capitals of Chen State in the past four years, since Fang Zhe asked him to take a look, it means that there is a problem with this account book, but Tang Ning's brain is not a computer, and there is no way to analyze whether there is a problem with this account book at a glance, and this is only part of the data, in the case of insufficient data, the method he knows is useless.

Even he couldn't see that if Fang Zhe could find a problem from this pile of data, Tang Ning would admit that he was really a beast.

Fang Zhe took a sip of tea and continued: "Look at the tax figures of Bozhou, Xiangzhou, and Weizhou in recent years. ”

Tang Ning swept his eyes on the paper and said: "What's wrong with Bozhou, Xiangzhou, and Weizhou, the tax revenue has been stable in recent years, with rises and falls, but the amplitude is not large, it is no longer normal, what's the problem?" ”

Fang Zhe put down the teacup and said, "Book of Chen, Bozhou Chronicles, Volume 53, Section 10. ”

"Book of Chen" is a historical book compiled by the Hanlin Academy, which records in detail the system and customs of the Chen State, including the major and small events that occur in the state capitals every year, which will be recorded.

"Bozhou Chronicles, Volume 53, Section 10 ......" Tang Ning recalled for a moment in his mind and muttered: "In the twenty-first year of Xingyuan, in June, there was a light drought in Hebei Province, especially in Bozhou, Xiangzhou, and Weizhou, and the people were in exile ......."

Fang Zhe looked at him with a slightly different expression: "Master Zhou said that you have the ability to never forget, it seems that what he said is true." ”

Putting aside the vanity for the time being, Tang Ning found that he couldn't keep up with the rhythm of Shang Zhe at all, he spoke with a hammer in the east and a mallet in the west, and he still didn't understand what he meant when he said so much.

When he swept his gaze over the booklet in his hand, he looked at the numbers on the paper, and finally found something, his expression slightly stunned.

"In the twenty-first year of Xingyuan, in June, there was a light drought in Hebei Province, especially in Bozhou, Xiangzhou, and Weizhou, and the people were in exile ......", it is written in the "Book of Chen", but the problem is that in the twenty-first year of Xingyuan, the tax revenue of these three states was actually the highest in the past four years.

The people have all run away, who will the government of these three states find to collect taxes?

Normally, this might not happen, unless someone is manipulating the tax numbers and ignoring the reality of the three states.

The tax figure of Xingyuan 21 is higher than that of the next three years, which shows that the taxes in the past three years have been passive, and they have directly done their hands and feet on taxes, which is bold!

Bozhou, Xiangzhou, and Weizhou are only the three states of Hebei Province, and all the state capitals combined, I am afraid that they are not as good as a state in the rich land of Jiangnan, and it is normal that they are not valued on weekdays, and the household department will not think of these when clearing the accounts, after all, the taxes in recent years are almost the same, and whoever is idle has nothing to do will check whether there is a drought in these states......

It turns out that there are still people who are idle and have nothing to do.

From the few words in Chen Shu's horns, it can be deduced that someone has done something about the taxation of Bozhou, Xiangzhou, and Weizhou, and this kind of person is too terrible, and he must keep his distance in the future.

Tang Ning was still puzzled, looked at him, and continued to ask: "The taxes in Hebei Province are the responsibility of Han Shilang, and this matter has nothing to do with him, but even so, how can Lord Fang deduce that Han Shilang is the person of Duanwang?" ”

"Duanwang is different from King Kang, who is backed by the magnates of Manchuria, behind Duanwang is the Tang family and the civil officials who belong to the Tang family in the court, and the characteristics of civil officials are poor, so Duanwang's financial resources should be far inferior to that of King Kang, but the fact is the opposite, Duanwang's financial resources are the most of the kings."

Fang Zhe took another sip of tea and continued: "The crime committed by Han Shilang is a big crime of the Yi clan, he is a poor waiter, he doesn't have so much courage, and he doesn't have enough reason to do this dangerous thing, what's more, if he is really for himself, where has the huge wealth of greedy ink gone all these years?" ”

Tang Ning poured himself a cup of tea to moisten his throat, and Han Shilang was bold enough to directly reach out to the imperial court's taxes, which could no longer shock him.

Han Shilang, who seems to be loyal and honest, is actually Duanwang's secret son in the household department, and he can't make much waves in his heart.

What made him feel a little numb was that Fang Xiaopang's father, just based on a sentence in the "Book of Chen", "In the twenty-first year of Xingyuan, in June, there was a light drought in Hebei Province, especially in Bozhou, Xiangzhou, and Weizhou, and the people were in exile ......", he deduced that Han Ming, the right attendant of the household department, was the secret son of King Duan, and he was greedy for a large amount of tax silver in the imperial court, including where the tax silver went......

He raised his head and looked at Fang Zhe, who had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and his demeanor, and suddenly felt a little creepy......

This is the fucking demon!

A real demon!
