Chapter 371: Banquet for Liu Jin
Liu Jin and Ma Yongcheng were embarrassed.
Father-in-law Liu has been checking accounts and corrupt officials recently, and he is busy raiding his home. Of course, the rules of the Ming Dynasty have changed slightly, and the property confiscated after the raid is no longer returned to the treasury, but to the treasury of Liu's mansion.
There are too many inputs, and Liu Gonggong, who is making money every day, actually forgot that Neiku had given him 500,000 taels of silver.
Of course, 500,000 taels is not a small amount, but compared with the cost of the leopard house project that Zhu Houzhao wants to build, it is still far behind, and with Liu Jin's Pixiu character, how can he spit out what he eats in his stomach?
So Liu Jin naturally ignored himself, the biggest moth, and said viciously: "What about others? How much are others greedy? Examine! Check hard! ”
Ma Yongcheng became more and more embarrassed, blushed and said, "Don't hide it from Gong Liu, I'll ...... took 200,000 taels. ”
Liu Jin's white eyebrows were raised, and he was about to get angry, but after thinking about it, this guy and himself were grasshoppers tied to a rope.
With a snort, Liu Jin said, "What else?" ”
"There are also 100,000 taels of Gu Da, 50,000 taels of Qiu Ju, and 50,000 taels of Luo Xiang Gaofeng...... "is worthy of being the housekeeper of the inner treasury, and Ma Yongcheng is like a treasure for the corruption accounts.
All in all, the two million taels of mine tax silver that were charged into the inner treasury two months ago, except for the hundreds of thousands of taels used for the right path, the rest was divided up by the Seven Tigers.
The reason why I say "Seven Tigers" is because Zhang Yong is missing from it.
It's not that Zhang Yonggao is bright, just because Gonggong Liu doesn't deal with him, the two have a deep grudge, and the other six tigers are all people with vision, and Gonggong Liu is now powerful. No one dared to get too close to Zhang Yong, for fear of being hated by Liu Jin, and such a pleasure as embezzling silver naturally excluded Zhang Yong.
The more Liu Jin listened, the greener his face became, and Ma Yongcheng read out this string of names, and he couldn't do anything about it, because the seven grasshoppers, including him, were all tied to a rope.
Tie seven grasshoppers......
What a rope against the sky.
They are all old people from the East Palace, and everyone is now in a high position in the palace, and His Majesty has a deep affection for them. And the intricate interests in the palace are like circles. There is a chaotic intersection with each other, even though Liu Jin is the first person in the inner palace, he does not dare to be angry.
"You bastards, Your Majesty wants to build a leopard house. Don't...... Could it be that the miscellaneous family went to tell His Majesty? There is no silver left in the inner treasury. Because you are all greedy? Liu Jin felt a deep sense of powerlessness.
"It's not 'you', it's 'us'......" Ma Yongcheng hurriedly corrected the big question of right and wrong. Ma Gonggong is still very able to hold his ground.
Liu Jin glared at him fiercely.
Sighing heavily, Liu Jin said: "The silver has entered your stomach, I'm afraid you won't be able to take it out, and now the only way to do it is ...... Bonus! ”
A calm voice suddenly came from outside the celebrant prison: "Liu Gong, don't add to it, sooner or later there will be a big disaster!" ”
The two turned their heads in amazement, but saw Zhang Cai walking in hurriedly.
"Liu Gong, no matter how difficult it is, you can't give more money to the world, if you provoke the people to rebel, it will be a big disaster for Liu Gong, and your majesty will not be able to protect you at that time." Zhang Cai said earnestly.
Liu Jin was as good as a stream, and when he saw Zhang Cai say it so seriously, he immediately dispelled the idea of adding endowment.
"So what do you say? His Majesty wants to build a leopard house, but the inner library has long been empty, and more than one million taels of silver is not counted, if this matter is poked out, the miscellaneous family will ......"
Zhang Cai scratched his head in annoyance, he didn't have a problem, after all, he was just a strategist of Gonggong Liu, and a strategist was not the God of Wealth.
The atmosphere in the celebrant prison fell into a slump, and the three of them sighed for a long time, Liu Jin looked sideways at Zhang Cai and asked, "Do you have something to do?" ”
Zhang Cairu woke up from a dream, took out a famous poster and handed it over, and said, "Liu Gong, Shanyin Marquis Qin Kan invited Liu Gong to the banquet." ”
Liu Jin was stunned for a moment, and then became furious: "Come back!" Isn't it enough for this evil animal to design and harm miscellaneous families last time? How many Qinglou women does he want to get this time to humiliate the miscellaneous family? ”
Zhang Cai hurriedly said: "No, the person sent by Qin Kan said that this time he is guaranteed to be vegetarian." ”
****************************************************************
Marquis Qin invited Liu Jin for the first time, and Liu Jin had to go anyway.
Now that the government is in the hands of Liu Jin alone, it does not mean that Liu Jin can stand at the peak and shout that the world is invincible, and the hero is lonely, because there is still an enemy in this world that he is deeply afraid of.
The most feared enemy invited him to the banquet, and Gonggong Liu couldn't help but go, otherwise he would lose again.
When night fell, the gate of a restaurant called "Fuguilou" in Jingshi Renshoufang was hung high with lanterns, and the sergeants of the Five Cities Terracotta Division cleared the neighborhood early, and two rows of brave guards stood in front of the gate with swords, and the majesty was intimidating.
Tonight, the commander of the Jinyi Guard made the Marquis of Qin banquet to invite the Ming Master of Ceremonies to seal Gonggong Liu, both of whom are famous and famous people, and safety work is the top priority.
The restaurant has been chartered by the Marquis of Qin, and there is no one downstairs.
Qin Kan, dressed in a black Confucian shirt, sat in the private room upstairs, sipping wine slowly, in the private room, a famous prostitute who was invited from an unknown Qinglou hugged the pipa, the sound of Zheng Zheng was like a big bead and a small bead falling on a jade plate, and the soft place was like a spring rain in the south of the Yangtze River, and the beautiful eyes of the famous prostitute stared at Qin Kan who was drinking alone not far from her, and the love in his eyes was even clear to the blind.
Young and handsome, high-ranking officials, talented and famous, and with an official reputation, which famous prostitute doesn't like such a romantic character? The famous prostitute did her best, not only exerting the pipa skills she had learned to the extreme, but also looking directly at Qin Kan with a pair of big eyes that hooked her soul, showing an extremely charming look in her eyes.
What is hateful is that this young marquis seems to be a blind man, not only did he not look at her with his eyes, but also looked out the window, it seemed that the dark night scene outside the window was a hundred times better than her, a famous prostitute full of famous green buildings.
The famous prostitute could only be secretly angry, but he didn't dare to complain.
Not long after, a gorgeous official sedan chair stopped in front of the restaurant, and Liu Jin wore a dark yellow python robe and walked out of the sedan chair calmly.
Stepping into the private room, Liu Jin saw Qin Kan drinking alone inside at a glance, and just put on a little smile, but saw that there was a woman playing the pipa in the private room, Liu Jin smiled for a while, and then showed a look of horror.
Qin Kan smiled and waved his hand to order the prostitute to retreat.
Since the last time Qin Kan was tricked, Liu Jin was molested by four Qinglou women, and Liu Gonggong suffered from a phobia of women, which has not been cured.
After the woman withdrew from the private room, Liu Jin's face returned to normal.
"Father-in-law Liu."
"Marquis Qin."
The two bowed to each other, and then laughed as if they were intimate.
Since Qin Kan returned to Beijing from Liaodong, he and Liu Jin rarely met, and the disagreement between the two has long been known to the whole dynasty, and they are really not much interested in seeing each other.
The two sat down, Qin Kan took the initiative to pour Liu Jin a full glass of wine, and then raised the cup towards Liu Jin.
Liu Jin also took the cup, and said with a smile: "Master Hou, please first." ”
Qin Kanzhi said that this was definitely not because Liu Jin was polite to him, but because he was afraid that he would poison the wine. Gonggong Liu, who has suffered many losses, has 120,000 points of vigilance when facing Qin Kan.
Villain!
Qin Kan didn't say a word, raised his head and drank it all, and flashed the bottom of the cup at him, and Liu Jin happily drank the wine in his cup.
"Master Hou, you were hard enough to pit the miscellaneous family last time." Liu Jin sighed sadly.
Qin Kan was stunned: "Why did Gonggong Liu say this? ”
Liu Jin snorted heavily: "Ming people don't say secret words, what is Hou Ye pretending to be confused?" Mass production of that bullshit Fran cannon, and drive Liu Daxia's old puppet out of the court, these two things are what you want to do, but you set a trap on the miscellaneous family, and the miscellaneous family fell on your evil deeds, and the miscellaneous family helped you do the two things, and you are the one who gets the most benefit in the end, but it is my ...... who bears the notoriety."
Qin Kan sighed and said, "Is there a villain around Gonggong Liu?" This is nonsense at all, I haven't shown up from beginning to end, standing far away, watching Grandpa Liu call for wind and rain to kill the Quartet with infinite admiration, for no reason, how can Grandpa Liu blame me? ”
Liu Jin sneered: "So, two things have nothing to do with you?" The rumors out there are all nonsense? ”
Qin Kan said: "Pure fart, Father-in-law Liu can't be gullible to outsiders to provoke, and make relatives and enemies happy." ”
Talking to Qin Kan has a very magical effect, if you can't say two sentences, you will be furious, but you can't have a seizure, most of them can only go home and scratch the wall.
Liu Jin held back the anger in his heart, hehe sneered twice, the matter had passed anyway, and he didn't bother to mention it again.
"Speaking of pit people, I heard that Gonggong Liu seems to have cheated me......" Qin Kan said slowly.
This time, Liu Jin was stunned: "Why did Master Hou say this?" ”
Qin Kan sneered: "According to the secret report of Jinyi Wei, it was Gong......gong Liu who sent me to Liaodong to die."
Liu Jin was furious: "Which bastard is this who spreads rumors and harms miscellaneous families?" The miscellaneous family has always been upright, how could they do such a wicked thing? ”
Qin Kan stared at him with interest and said with a smile: "In this way, this matter has nothing to do with Gonggong Liu?" Is it the people below who are talking nonsense? ”
Liu Jin said: "Of course it has nothing to do, we are all close ministers from the East Palace, and the court should be united with the outside world, how can the miscellaneous family harm you?" Hou Ye can't believe the villain's rumors, and make the relatives and enemies happy......"
Qin Kan sighed, this uneducated person didn't even change his lines......
So the two of them raised their glasses again, touched them without smiling, and drank them all.
They are all famous and famous people, and they are all powerful ministers who have the ability to call for wind and rain in the court, and they are all the same undisciplined, and they don't admit the evil things they have done......
When two people get together like this, it's a kind of torment for each other.
Liu Jin's patience was obviously not as good as Qin Kan's, and after the two drank a few glasses, Liu Jin went straight to the point.
"I don't know what happened to Master Hou's banquet today?"
Qin Kan smiled and said, "Gonggong Liu, recently ...... Is there a shortage of silver? ”
This sentence aroused Liu Jin's deep vigilance, looking at the table mountain delicacies, Liu Jin held back his anger and said: "This meal shouldn't be a miscellaneous family's money, right?" ”
