Chapter 809: Lao Zhu's Question

Lao Zhu has always been important to work, nodded and said, "Call someone up." ”

He returned to the dragon chair, and soon the eunuch led the two officials in, and the two bowed their heads to the center of the main hall to kowtow to Lao Zhu.

"Weichen An Huzi (Ru Yu) greets Your Majesty!"

"Huh?" Lao Zhu couldn't help but be surprised, because an ordinary official in a green robe kneeling below, and the other one was actually a Jinyi guard.

Ordinary officials who saw Jinyiwei were usually mice and cats, and they actually came to play together at this time, which made him not surprised.

"Raise your head and let me see!"

An Huzi and Ru Yu immediately raised their heads when they heard this, but they didn't forget to glance down their eyes and didn't dare to look directly at Lao Zhu, this is the rule that a courtier should have for a king.

Lao Zhu glanced at the two of them, "It looks familiar." ”

Ma Du said: "Of course Your Majesty is familiar, the one wearing the green official robe is the Jinshi of Jinke, and His Majesty should have seen it at the Qionglin banquet." Another His Majesty had seen him Lao Tzu once served as a personal soldier for His Majesty, and later served as a liaison officer for the Pingjiang Inspection School. These two are good seedlings from the academy, and Your Majesty should be used for good life. ”

Lao Zhu pointed at An Huzi and said, "I remembered, Han Cheng's case is that you sneaked to Hongxian County to catch him, and your name is An Huzi." ”

"Your Majesty is Wei Chen, the current deputy of Jinyi Wei Qianhu."

Lao Zhu smiled and asked: "It's not good to stay in Hongdu, how can you run to the sky, could it be that someone can't do the opposite." ”

An Huzi took out a secret fold from his arms, and Ru Yu also took out a secret fold from his arms, and the two said in unison: "Please Your Majesty!" ”

Yuan Sheng hurriedly folded the two pieces in front of Lao Zhu, Lao Zhu looked at it very carefully, and it took a long time to put down the music, turned his head and said to Ma Du: "Xuanzhong, aren't you in a hurry to go home, hurry up, otherwise you won't be able to catch the train." ”

I don't know why Lao Zhu suddenly changed his mind, Ma Du gave up his hand, "Then Weichen will retire, if the imperial grandson has any discomfort, the emperor can let Weichen be notified in time." ”

Seeing Lao Zhu nodding, Ma Du bowed and retreated, and when he turned around and walked out of the palace gate, he glanced back, and was catching a glimpse of An Huzi's trembling feet, and he had a faint bad premonition in his heart.

Lao Zhu saw that Ma Du was gone, he also got down from the dragon chair, his face was covered with a dark cloud, and the eunuchs and palace maids standing in the hall subconsciously closed their breathing, and only Lao Zhu's gentle footsteps were left in the huge hall, snapping......

Everyone's heartbeat fluctuated with the sound of his footsteps, and he slowly walked in front of An Huzi and asked softly, "You caught all the people?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, it was Weichen who caught it...... Yes! ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he flew out with a painful cry, and fell heavily on the ground, and Ru Yu's body on the side trembled suddenly, and large beads of sweat gushed out at once, and fell to the ground with a click.

"You're so daring!" Lao Zhu's voice was like thunder, which shocked the ears of everyone in the hall, "Without the holy decree, you dare to wipe out one province, three divisions, and one net, who gave you such a big courage, if you cause a military disaster, I will punish your nine clans lightly!" ”

An Huzi knelt down again and crawled in front of Lao Zhu, "The three divisions of Jiangxi are greedy for the treasury, and they were pierced by the inspection of the Qincha to know that the death penalty is coming, and there is already a rebellion in their hearts. ”

Lao Zhu snorted inside his nose and put down the foot he had just raised.

"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty, An Qianhu is right, the three divisions of Jiangxi ignored the emperor's order to hold the Qin mission hostage, and the crime of holding the Qin mission hostage is not forgivable, and it is a loss to Hongdu Qianhu to act decisively, otherwise the war disaster has already happened at this moment. ”

Lao Zhu looked at Ru Yu and then at An Huzi, and sneered: "So you still have merit?" ”

"Serve Your Majesty, the ministers dare not take credit!"

"The people who came out of the academy are really shameless!" The old Zhu robe flicked his sleeves and sat back on the dragon chair, "Come here and explain it to me clearly." ”

The two of them said clearly and carefully about Hongdu at the moment, and the two of them talked to each other on the road, and they spoke without leaking, as if they didn't do it at that time, Jiangxi has changed the sky at the moment.

Lao Zhu was so dizzy and swollen with anger that he rubbed his temples and asked, "What is the situation in Hongdu now, and the health centers in Jiangxi are still alive?" ”

Ru Yu replied: "The political and military affairs of Hongdu are now handled by Qincha Qitai and Jinyi Wei Qianhu Lu Gang, and when Weichen set off, Hongdu City was closed, and no one was allowed to enter or leave, and the other prefectures and counties did not know the situation in Hongdu. ”

"Well, it's not stupid. With all this aggressive action, are the people of the three divisions really corrupt? Lao Zhu seemed to have some disbelief in his eyes with doubts.

An Huzi took out another piece of paper from his sleeve, "Weichen copied a large amount of cash from the homes of officials at all levels of the three divisions, about 1.3 million taels, and the cash has been sent to Beijing. Other house deeds, title deeds, jewelry, and cultural toys have not yet been liquidated, and if His Majesty sends someone to search their hometown, there may be some gains. ”

Lao Zhu threw the paper aside, gritted his teeth and said, "With so much money, how much grain do you have to embezzle." ”

Ru Yu took out a booklet from his bosom again, "Wei Chen calculated on the way according to the account books that were searched, they have been greedy for the grain in the treasury of Mohongdu since four years ago, and it is about 3.4 million stone so far. ”

"Hmph......" Lao Zhu lay on the dragon chair, his eyes looked at the palace without blinking, "Even if Jiangxi is the land of fish and rice, I don't dare to imagine how much sweat the people have to sweat to grow it, they are even more ruthless than me!" ”

Then there was a long silence, and after half a pillar of incense, he sat up straight again, looked at the two people kneeling in front of him, and said, "You two should go back to Hongdu." ”

An Huzi and Ru Yu glanced at each other and didn't understand what Lao Zhu meant.

"I asked you to go back to Hongdu and continue to investigate the case, An Huzi, how old are you this year?"

"Back to Your Majesty, Weichen is twenty-five years old this year."

"It's so small, but it's old-fashioned. Go back to Beijing to be a thousand households, and I will allocate 500 people from Jinyiwei to take you to Hongdu. ”

An Huzi was overjoyed in his heart, "Thank you, Your Majesty, the investigation and handling of the Hongdu fraud case this time is all thanks to Lu Qianhu's strategizing to catch the corrupt officials of the three divisions." ”

"Huh...... You can be a man, Lu Gang has followed me for decades, I didn't know that he was a slippery head, this time he must have also reaped a lot of benefits, I won't promote him. ”

"Ru Yu don't watch the government in the ministry, go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to supervise the imperial history of Jiangxi Province, the two of you go back to Hongdu together, you must check clearly, no matter how big or small the official is, you can't let it go, go."

When the two of them retreated, Lao Zhu continued to order, "Spread the order that the governor of the left army will allocate 30,000 elites, and Geng Bingwen will lead the army to enter Jiangxi." In addition, it was instructed that thousands of households in various places secretly investigate the reality of the local treasury. ”

Lao Zhu suddenly stopped Yuansheng, who was about to deliver the message, "Yuansheng, do you say that I am too merciful?" ”

Looking at the puzzled look in Lao Zhu's eyes, Yuan Sheng was sure that Lao Zhu was not joking, and hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty is certainly merciful, but the biggest reason for such a fraud is their greed. ”

Lao Zhu muttered: "That's right, they are too greedy." When I was a child, I was content to have a bowl of dry rice to eat, and they were not afraid of dying with millions of stone grains. ”

"These corrupt officials naturally can't spare them easily, the slaves and maids have some questions, why did the emperor take away the uncle just now, maybe he can give you some good ideas."

"The matter of setting up treasury in various places is a good idea he gave me, and maybe the case will implicate him."

"Your Majesty is too worried, Uncle Guo is not such a person. The slave maid remembered that in Xuanwu Lake, His Majesty forced Uncle Guo to give an idea, and Uncle Guo also reminded His Majesty that it was easy to cheat if the authority of the household department was too large. ”

Lao Zhu seemed to be woken up, "Yes, there is also the household!" ”
