Xue Guoguan's greed really surprised Chongzhen, he originally thought that this guy was just a little greedy for power, but he never thought that this guy was even more greedy for money!

The amount of money he embezzled was so huge that Chongzhen was taken aback, when it came to the money obtained from corruption, Shi Wei was just a small meaning, because Shi Wei also gave Xue Guoguan more than 100,000 taels before and after, as for the millions of taels in the Shu Palace, Shi Wei had not grabbed it, so he had not given Xue Guoguan points.

It is impossible for the spies sent by Zhang Bin to know about the agreement they reached in private, so the amount involved in the power-for-money transaction between Xue Guoguan and Shi Wei is more than 100,000 taels, which is not particularly scary, and the reason why Huang Chenghao put these two impeachments on the top is mainly because they united to bully the king, lie about the military situation, and embezzle food and salary, which is worse than simple corruption.

The twists and turns that followed were basically the impeachment of Xue Guoguan for selling officials, generally a prefect is more than 10,000 taels, a prefect is more than 50,000 taels, and a criminal envoy or even a political envoy is more than 100,000 taels!

Xue Guoguan is also the secretary of the ministry and the head of the cabinet, it is too easy to promote officials, even the governor of a province, he can do it with a little deception of Chongzhen, what is even more terrifying is that he only recognizes money and does not recognize people, even if you are a lifter, even if you have bad deeds, as long as you can afford the money, he dares to promote!

How much money he sold for official sales, even Zhang Bin didn't count an accurate number, but it was terrifying that Zhang Bin could find out, because Zhang Bin sent someone to verify it, and there was real evidence to reach millions of taels!

This is not the most terrible, the most terrible thing is that most of the officials sold by Xue Guoguan are in the five northwestern provinces, because they have been purged by the anti-thieves many times, and the officials in many places have been served by the anti-thieves, and they urgently need to supplement the officials, and it is relatively easy to operate, and the rich places of Jiangnan and Fuguang are generally involved in a lot of interests, and it is more difficult to arrange people in the past.

What is even more terrifying is that these people ignore the provisions of the imperial court to reduce taxes in the northwest disaster areas, continue to collect all kinds of taxes, fill their pockets, and engage in the five northwest provinces full of complaints, and anti-thieves are everywhere, it can be said that the reason why Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong were able to recover so quickly was caused by Xue Guoguan's crazy selling of officials!

Chongzhen did not doubt these folds anymore, because each of them had the testimony provided by the corresponding local officials, and the evidence was ironclad, and he could not believe it.

And he didn't doubt these testimonies, because it was impossible for Zhang Bin and Huang Chenghao to unite so many people to bully the monarch, they impeached the cabinet chief, if these things were not true, Xue Guoguan would definitely deny it and ask to find out the truth, at that time, whoever escaped, the crime of bullying the monarch would be lost!

Chongzhen watched the twist and turn and was silent for a long time, then waved his hand dejectedly: "Bingzhong, you go down first." ”

Huang Chenghao didn't say anything more, just gave his hands and retreated respectfully, leaving Chongzhen sitting there with a lonely face.

Chongzhen's mood at this time was simply terrible, he trusted Xue Guoguan so much, and even when everyone scolded Xue Guoguan for being Qin Hui, he was under pressure and fully supported this guy, but I didn't expect that this guy was not only Qin Hui but also Yan Song!

He was so insatiable.

He was so unscrupulous.

He was so lawless.

How dare he deceive me like this!

The more Chongzhen thought about it, the more angry he became, he was so blind that he entrusted all his trust to such a traitorous villain!

In the end, he was so angry that he roared directly: "Go, call me this traitorous villain Xue Guoguan!" ”

Xue Guoguan didn't know that he had already exposed, he was living a small life at this time, much more nourished than in history, because the Zhejiang Party and the Qi Party, the most powerful of the remnants of the eunuch party in history, had not been cleaned up, and he, the lone party leader among the remnants of the eunuch party, could not control much power at all.

At this time, the Zhejiang Party and the Qi Party in the court have been purged, and the remnants of the eunuch party are basically left with him, the lone party, as long as he cleans up Zhang Bin, he can cover the sky with one hand!

Chongzhen summoned him to the imperial study at this time, and he didn't feel anything wrong, because Chongzhen often asked him to discuss how to clean up Zhang Bin recently, and it was a common thing to recall several times a day, he didn't expect that this time Chongzhen wanted to clean up not Zhang Bin but him!

With a smug smile, he came to the imperial study, and respectfully lay on the ground to give Chongzhen a courtesy, and then, he habitually wanted to stand up and speak, but as soon as his hand was on the ground, he was stunned, because Chongzhen did not ask him to be exempt from courtesy!

What's going on here?

Chongzhen's face is not very good at this time, he found this when he came in, however, Chongzhen's bad face is generally because of Zhang Bin, not because of him, he has encountered this kind of thing many times, so he didn't care much, at this time, it seems that something is wrong, Chongzhen's bad face is because of him!

He was thinking nonsense there, Chongzhen suddenly snorted coldly: "What good things Shi Fei has done in Sichuan, you can tell me honestly." ”

It turned out that this was the case, Xue Guoguan was not only not afraid, but breathed a sigh of relief, because he had already had a way to deal with this matter, and he had already thought of a way to deal with it when Zhang Bin recalled Guanning Tieqi back to Liaodong.

He pretended to guess: "Your Majesty, Weichen dares to ask, are you talking about Guanning Tieqi?" ”

Chongzhen said noncommittally: "What's wrong with Guan Ning Tieqi, you say." ”

Xue Guoguan shamelessly bit back and said: "Back to the emperor, what happened to Guanning Tieqi in Liaodong, Weichen is not very clear, but when Zhang Bin transferred Guanning Tieqi back to Liaodong, Weichen guessed that he would use Guanning Tieqi to make a fuss." ”

Zhang Bin will fight back, Xue Guoguan is clear about this, and Chongzhen is also clear, but at this time, Chongzhen already believes that what Huang Chenghao said is true, and the reason why he also summoned Xue Guoguan to ask is that he is afraid that he will listen to one side of the word and wronged Xue Guoguan, after all, he is the first assistant of the cabinet, if he kills the wrong person, it will be troublesome.

However, when he heard Xue Guoguan say this, his suspicion rose again, could it be that Zhang Bin was really setting up a situation to frame Xue Guoguan!

He subconsciously asked, "What do you think Zhang Bin will do?" ”

Xue Guoguan shamelessly flickered and said: "This Guanning Iron Cavalry will definitely have casualties in the battle with Jiannu in Liaodong, and when the time comes, Zhang Bin only needs to count the casualties in Liaodong to Sichuan, and he can frame Shi Fei for being incompetent, and Shi Wei is blindly commanding, so that the Guanning Iron Cavalry has suffered heavy casualties, and even framed me, saying that Shi Fei's position as governor was completely because he paid me to climb up." ”

When Chongzhen heard this, he couldn't help but chuckle in his heart, what Xue Guoguan said was exactly the same as what he said on the fold, did he really listen to Huang Chenghao's words and wronged this guy?

He picked up the fold and looked at it, and then continued to ask: "What about the Henan Army?" ”

The Henan army also suffered heavy losses, and Xue Guoguan also knew this, but he didn't know very well how heavy the losses were, because Shi Wei didn't tell him clearly, he could only say nonsense: "Your Majesty, there will inevitably be casualties in this war, didn't he Zhang Bin have casualties when he fought in Liaodong, this kind of thing, Weichen really has nothing to say." ”

Nothing to say?

This seems a little wrong, what people impeached is not the casualty of the Henan army, but the problem of you uniting to bully the king, lie about the military situation, and embezzle food and wages.

Chongzhen began to waver again, who do you believe?
