"And Liu Wenxuan!" The head of the stall hesitated, gritted his teeth and said: "Whether Liu Wenxuan has anything to do with this case or not, it is not easy to draw conclusions at present.

However, it is certain that Liu Wenxuan concealed and did not report the matter of Yangzhou salt affairs during his tenure as the secretary of the Ministry of Households, which must have been dereliction of duty.

I believe Master Li also knows this. ”

"From the point of view of humble duties, you might as well escort Liu Wenxuan to await trial first, I don't know what Li Yushi thinks?"

After thinking about it, Li Guangtai said: "Liu Wenxuan can also be escorted pending trial, but what about Qin Sijie?" Qin Sijie is deeply involved in this case, if you don't deal with it, I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince the public! ”

Facing the big stall of the East Factory, Li Guangtai rarely put down his body to ask for his opinion.

The big stall head smiled bitterly and said: "Li Yushi, we Dongchang people are different from you, we are all saint's house slaves, everything must be put first, if the saint does not reply clearly, we Dongchang will not dare to touch Qin Sijie lightly." ”

"My lord, you don't know, right now the queen mother is pregnant with a dragon heir, everything in the palace is based on the queen mother, if there is any accident because of Qin Sijie's matter, even if you borrow a few more heads, it is not enough to cut it up!"

"Okay, according to your wishes, Jia Daocun will be imprisoned first, and Liu Wenxuan will be escorted pending trial, as for Qin Sijie, it will be dealt with after the Holy Lord's will is settled."

At this moment, Li Guangtai, the former emperor who dared to directly confront the emperor, felt extremely aggrieved in his heart.

Jin Yiwei, since Qian Du's arrival, he has not been able to command.

And Dongchang, although they still listen to their own words, but once they are involved in royal affairs, they obviously dare not stand on their side.

Over there, Qian Du had just left the yamen of the Yangzhou prefect when he saw a fast horse galloping towards him in the distance.

The horses stopped in front of the gate of the prefect's yamen, and the people above jumped off their horses at once, and when they saw Qian Du, they asked, "But the commander of the Jinyi Guard made Qian Du face him?" ”

Obviously, this person knew Qian Du.

"It's this official, who are you?" Qian Du asked.

"Holy letter, please ask the commander of the money to open it in person!"

As he spoke, the man took out a letter from his bosom and handed it to Qian Du.

"It turned out to be a messenger from the capital, you should go down and rest first!" Ordering the messenger to take the messenger to the inn to rest, Qian Du couldn't wait to open the letter and read it carefully.

The more he looked, the tighter Qian Du's brows locked, and finally let out a long sigh, his eyes a little cloudy.

……

As the saying goes, a wave of unevenness rises again and again.

Here in the capital, Zhang Lingyang has just celebrated his birthday a few days ago, and something happened in southern Henan.

Shen Chao, the imperial historian of the right capital who went to southern Henan to supervise disaster relief, presented a performance and impeached Zhu Kaishan, the governor of southern Henan, for using disaster relief silver to buy old and moldy grain, which was shoddy.

Immediately, Zhu Kaishan also made a statement, saying that there were millions of victims in southern Henan, but the imperial court only allocated 500,000 taels of silver, which was not enough at all.

The public said that the public was reasonable, and the mother said that the mother was reasonable, but Zhang Lingyang was more inclined to Zhu Kaishan.

So, Zhang Lingyang called Zhang Zhiyuan, the first assistant of the cabinet, Zhou Shanning, the secretary of the ministry, and Zheng Yongji, the secretary of the household department, to discuss.

"Three Aiqing, presumably the three of them already know about the matter in southern Henan, I don't know what the three of them think should be handled?"

Zhang Zhiyuan spoke first: "Your Majesty, Shen Chao, the imperial history of the right capital, and Zhu Kaishan, the governor of southern Henan, have already seen the old ministers before. The impeachment content of Shen Chao's impeachment is indeed true, and Zhu Kaishan also admitted this.

But Zhu Kaishan's statement is also excusable, there are no less than one million people affected by the disaster in southern Henan, but the allocated silver is only 500,000 taels. Lao Chen estimated that 500,000 taels of silver, if used to buy ordinary grain, should be enough for the victims for three months, and this is still under the condition of two porridges a day.

And if you buy old and moldy grain, the price is one-third of the normal grain price, which means that the victims can barely survive until next spring. ”

Zhang Zhiyuan said so many things, but there was no actual advice at all.

Zhang Lingyang glanced at Zhang Zhiyuan lightly, then looked at Zhou Shanning and Zheng Yongji and asked, "I don't know the opinions of the two Aiqing?" ”

Zhou Shanning took the lead in replying: "Your Majesty, the minister's opinion is the same as that of Zhang Ge Lao!" ”

"......" Zhang Lingyang glanced at Zhou Shanning meaningfully, but couldn't help but scold in his heart: "Your old horseman's opinion is the same as Zhang Zhiyuan's. But what did the fucking Zhang Zhiyuan say before? A certain amount of bullshit opinion has not been published! ”

Zhang Lingyang nodded quietly, and then looked at Zheng Yongji.

Zheng Yongji replied: "Your Majesty, with the meaning of Weichen, it is more reasonable for Zhu Kaishan to do this. ’

"At the moment, the treasury is tight, if according to Shen Chao's meaning. If all 500,000 taels of silver were to buy normal grain to help the victims, I was afraid that the victims in southern Henan would not survive today's winter, and they would be frozen and starved to death. ”

"Although Zhu Kaishan's method is not well considered, it can finally allow the victims of southern Henan to survive this winter."

"Besides, Weichen also learned before that Zhu Kaishan did not accept a penny of bribes from him, and all the 500,000 taels of silver were taken out to buy grain."

"Moreover, Weichen also heard that none of the victims in southern Henan died of cold and starvation."

"This shows that everything Zhu Kaishan does is for the people of southern Henan!"

"Therefore, with the meaning of the minister, Your Majesty may wish to issue an order to apply for Zhu Kaishan, and just punish him with a small punishment and a big commandment!"

After Zheng Yongji finished speaking, Zhang Lingyang nodded with satisfaction and said: "What Zheng Aiqing said is deeply in line with my intentions, although Zhu Kaishan acted a little reckless this time, he is dedicated to the public. ”

"I also heard that in order to help the victims this time, Zhu Kaishan did not hurry to mobilize large families in southern Henan to donate money and materials, and also donated half a year's money."

"Zhu Kaishan's behavior cannot be unrewarded, but it cannot be rewarded in public."

"That's it, Zheng Aiqing, you can draw up a will for me, and you can ask Zhu Kaishan to open the mountain."

"In addition, I heard that Zhu Kaishan's family has a beloved daughter who also participated in this draft, but unfortunately she was defeated in the end."

"I will be very gracious, let Zhu Kaishan send his beloved daughter into the palace, and I will seal the position of Jieyu!"

"Your Majesty Shengming!" Zhang Zhiyuan and the three of them had no opinion on this, and they all got up and saluted Zhang Lingyang.

After a while, Zheng Yongji also prepared the holy decree, and after Zhang Lingyang read it, he saw that there was no problem, so he ordered Sun Sheng to seal it, and then issued it.

After Zhang Zhiyuan and the three of them left the palace, Zhang Lingyang returned to the Heart Cultivation Palace, reclined on the bed, glanced at Sun Sheng standing aside, and said faintly: "Sun Sheng, do you think Zhang Zhiyuan is not suitable to be the first assistant of this cabinet?" ”
