Chapter 208 Personally Probing the Wind (Five Watches Asking for a Monthly Pass)
Eldest Sun Wuji heard what they said, and he was even more sure of his guess.
Then the four of them sat there thinking about what else they hadn't thought of.
But no matter what they thought, they didn't come up with it.
Because the eldest grandson Wuji didn't know that the children of those families were greedy for so much money in the workshop.
Although Cui Renshi and Wei Ting knew about it, they didn't know much about this matter, and they hadn't been on duty in the Ministry of Industry, so no matter what they thought, they didn't think about Qin Huaidao's investigation of the corruption of the workshop officials.
Almost a quarter of an hour later, the four of them still didn't figure out why Li Shimin was so indulgent to Qin Huaidao, so they could only sigh.
"In the past few days, you also have to inquire carefully, as for Chengtianmen, don't go to Chengtianmen, just let them go, Qin Huaidao definitely needs to give everyone an explanation for this matter.
And Your Majesty, you also need to give everyone a justice, it is impossible to just keep avoiding it, if there is no result tomorrow, then the day after tomorrow, everyone will impeach Qin Huaidao together! ”
The eldest grandson Wuji saw that sitting like this was not a thing, so he could only let them go back first, and of course he didn't forget to explain to them.
"Know! Zhao Guogong, if there is any news, we will also inform you as soon as possible. Lawyer Pei stood up and said with a fist clenched at the eldest grandson Wuji.
Eldest Sun Wuji nodded.
Soon, they left the Zhao Guogong Mansion, and the eldest grandson Wuji sat there sighing.
"Master, the eldest prince is back." The housekeeper pushed the door in at this moment and said to the eldest grandson Wuji.
"Well, did you go to the eldest princess's mansion?" The eldest grandson Wuji asked.
"Yes, but I brought back Young Master Yan and Young Master Xun!" The housekeeper reported.
"Oh, bring it back, quick, bring it here, the old man hasn't seen my two grandchildren for a long time!" When the eldest grandson Wuji heard that the two eldest grandson Yan brothers were back, he was very excited.
"Yes!" The housekeeper went out immediately.
After a while, Changsun Chong led Changsun Yan and Changsun Xun in.
"Come on, haha, my precious grandson!" The eldest grandson Wuji was very happy, and immediately squatted down and hugged the two of them.
The eldest grandson, Wuji, likes these two grandchildren very much.
"Father!" Changsun Chong stood there and said to Changsun Wuji.
"Well, it's good to come back, but there's progress?" Eldest Sun Wuji asked with a smile.
Today, his two grandchildren are back, which is a happy event for him.
Eldest Sun Chong shook his head.
"Well, this matter will definitely take time, you still need to persevere, and now that the two grandchildren are back, it is also a small victory for you, don't worry!"
Eldest Sun Wuji said very happily, not noticing Eldest Sun Chong's lost expression at all.
Eldest Sun Chong heard Eldest Sun Wuji say this, and he was so happy, he didn't tell him what the eldest princess's subordinates said to him outside the eldest princess's mansion today.
The eldest princess has already issued an ultimatum to him, and in the future, he is not allowed to go to the gate of the eldest princess's mansion, otherwise, the eldest princess will really let those family members beat him.
The eldest grandson Wuji was immersed in the excitement of his grandson's return, and he didn't care about the eldest grandson Chong at all.
The next day, after Qin Huaidao got up, he rode to the palace.
I just arrived at Chengtianmen, and found that those officials actually slept all night outside Chengtianmen last night.
Of course, someone sent them bedding or something, otherwise, Qin Huaidao believed that they would definitely not be able to stand it.
It's still a bit cold now.
Fortunately, it didn't rain last night, and if it did, it would have been drenched.
Qin Huaidao didn't care about them, rode his horse, and walked towards the palace.
Now that the officials have also come out with an empty road, since they are not blocking their way, there is no need for them to call them up.
After arriving at the Ministry of Industry, the officials of the Ministry of Industry were already waiting at the door of Qin Huaidao's room, and they couldn't get in without Qin Huaidao.
Because Qin Huaidao arranged for the guards to guard here, no one can enter their room without their own consent, and they can only walk away when Qin Huaidao comes, and here, there will also be Qin Huaidao's family soldiers watching.
"I've seen Hu Guogong, Hu Guogong is early!" Several officials saw Qin Huaidao, and immediately bowed to Qin Huaidao with a smile and said.
They now know that many officials will be unlucky in this audit.
And they, now they can be regarded as hugging Qin Huaidao's thigh, and if they are promoted in the future, Qin Huaidao will definitely help.
"Well, morning, everyone will work hard for another day today, and after tomorrow, it may be much easier, and someone will come to help then, you just need to supervise them!" Qin Huaidao said to them with a smile, then opened the door and walked in first.
Those officials also followed Qin Huaidao in.
Soon, they were engaged in auditing the accounts.
Outside, officials from the Ministry of Industry also arrived one after another.
When they arrived here, the first thing they did was to look at the door of Qin Huaidao's room.
I found that the door over there was still open.
"Hmph, you can still sit, I see that you can sit in this position for a few days!" An official with a dark face looked at Qin Huaidao and said coldly.
"Well, it is estimated that he himself knows that His Majesty will not be able to protect him this time, so now come and sit for a few days and have an official pleasure!"
"Hmph, a sixteen-year-old boy dares to be so arrogant, when he grows up, will he be able to pay it back?" ...
Those officials discussed in private, and they all looked at Qin Huaidao with mockery.
They know that there are a large number of officials petitioning outside the Chengtian Gate now.
Qin Huaidao's punishment this time will definitely not be able to escape.
In the afternoon, there were more and more officials outside Chengtianmen, and they were very angry at His Majesty's cold attitude, so they all came to protest, hoping that Li Shimin could come out and give them an explanation.
And the eldest grandson Wuji in Shangshu Province, there are no officials around him at the moment, and he is really helpless.
"Zhao Guogong, do you want to go to Your Majesty's side to have a look, and let Your Majesty come out and talk about it, otherwise, our Shangshu Province will stop working, and there will be no one!" An official looked at the eldest grandson Wuji and asked.
The eldest grandson Wuji didn't speak, looking at Fang Xuanling next to him.
Fang Xuanling is very leisurely, he has been holding the music and watching.
The eldest grandson Wuji thought for a while, and then walked to Fang Xuanling's side.
"Lord Fang, are we going to meet Your Majesty, this matter is getting worse now!" Eldest Sun Wuji looked at Fang Xuanling and asked.
"Well, the old man has been there, it's useless, Your Majesty is gone, the old man estimates, Your Majesty will definitely deal with it tomorrow, why rush?
Those officials outside went to Chengtianmen, just hoping that His Majesty would punish Qin Huaidao heavily, and tomorrow, it should be dispersed. Fang Xuanling said without raising his head.
It's not that he hasn't been there, but after he went, Li Shimin didn't see him, Fang Xuanling thought, if you don't see it, you won't see it, this matter must be dealt with.
He didn't know that Qin Huaidao was checking the accounts, but he just thought, no matter what, Qin Huaidao was also a benefactor in his house, Fang Zhizhi and Fang Yiai admired Qin Huaidao very much, and he also had a very good impression of Qin Huaidao, so he didn't want to make trouble for Qin Huaidao.
"That being said, but what if Your Majesty is not satisfied with the results of tomorrow's handling of the matter?" Eldest Sun Wuji looked at Fang Xuanling and asked.
"Then we'll talk about it tomorrow." Fang Xuanling still didn't look up.
There are so many pieces here that he needs to read them all.
"Do you know anything?" Seeing that he was so calm, Eldest Sun Wuji looked at him in a low voice and asked.
"Know what?" Fang Xuanling only looked up at Eldest Sun Wuji at this moment, and he didn't understand what Eldest Sun Wuji was talking about.
"Then you are so calm? Now this matter is not small, Qin Huaidao has beaten so many officials, doesn't this kind of treatment make hundreds of officials feel cold? The eldest grandson Wuji was still saying tentatively.
He thinks that Fang Xuanling must know something.
"The old man really doesn't know anything, Your Majesty must have his purpose in dealing with it like this.
As for why the old man is so calm, no matter what, Peping is our nephew, although the old man doesn't agree with him beating people, but he can't fall into the well at this time, right? Fang Xuanling looked at the eldest grandson Wuji and explained.
The eldest grandson Wuji only believed Fang Xuanling's words at this moment, and he also knew that the relationship between Fang Xuanling and Qin Huaidao was okay, and Qin Huaidao had helped Fang Xuanling a lot.
"Well, okay, the old man will go to His Majesty's side to have a look, if it goes on like this, it's not a thing!" The eldest grandson Wuji said and went out with his hands behind his back.
He wanted to go to the Ganlu Hall to see Li Shimin and probe the wind, mainly because he always felt uneasy about this matter.
Soon, he arrived at the Hall of Manna, and the eunuch saw him coming, and went in to report it.
To the surprise of the eldest grandson Wuji, Li Shimin actually saw him, so many officials asked to see him before, but Li Shimin didn't see him, this time Li Shimin actually saw himself.
"Minister, I've seen Your Majesty!" The eldest grandson Wuji went to the tea room of the Ganlu Hall and found that Li Shimin was actually sitting there drinking tea and reading?
Didn't you tell the ministers outside that they were busy with official business?
"Well, the auxiliary machine is here, sit, it's not interesting for me to drink tea alone? Sit down and drink tea with me. Li Shimin saw the eldest grandson Wuji coming, said to the eldest grandson Wuji with a smile, and brought him a cup of tea.
The eldest grandson Wuji hurriedly greeted him and saluted Li Shimin again.
"But it's for the matter of Chengtianmen?" Li Shimin asked with a smile.
"Yes, so many officials went, so that the court fell into a difficult situation, and no one handled government affairs." Eldest Sun Wuji nodded and said.
"Hey, why are you in such a hurry, Pepin has just taken office after all, although he beat people, but there is something wrong with those people, isn't it?
How can someone manage people and ask for money on the first day of taking office, isn't this clear that they want to make things difficult for Peping? Li Shimin sighed at this moment, and there was also a sense of grievance for Qin Huaidao in his tone.
