Chapter 368: The biggest corruption case since he ascended the throne

Ying Yun took the knife handed by Wushun, scraped it along the edge of the wine jar, and scraped it a few times little by little, and the paint on the outside was rubbed off, revealing specks of gold.

Anai and the others exclaimed, "Ah, this can't be made of gold, right?" ”

Wushun suddenly said: "No wonder it's so heavy." ”

"Shh Ying Yun raised her eyes and looked at them, and said, "Don't make a noise about this matter first, and wait until I return to the emperor." ”

"Huh."

After nightfall, Yingyun waited until the beginning of the hour, and the person lay on the desk and took several naps, before waiting for the sound of the emperor pushing the door in.

The emperor saw that she was neatly dressed and holding a wine jar, and said with a smile: "The queen still hasn't slept so late, is this waiting for me to drink together?" ”

Yingyun suddenly sobered up and said, "Your Majesty, this jar was brought by the concubine from the county commander's house, you see, what is it made of?" ”

The emperor took a closer look at the candlelight, picked it with his hand again, weighed it, and said suspiciously: "A wine jar made of gold? Is this really Wang Haide's family? ”

"Hmm." Ying Yun nodded and said: "His family's wine jar is erected, but it can be worth a wall, if it is all converted into gold, the concubine calculates, how much silver is this worth?" ”

The emperor said angrily: "I don't hesitate to spend a lot of money to control the river embankment, Wang Haide, as a parent official, dares to fill his own pockets, and hides so deeply, isn't it fooling me to be in the palm of my hand." "Dumbo e-book

"Someone!" The emperor reprimanded, and when he saw Li Yu bowing inside, he said: "Passing the decree, ordering Agui to immediately copy the house of Haining County Commander Wang Haide, and give me a careful inspection of every brick and tile, I want to take a look, how much can he be greedy for ink?" ”

"Huh." Li Yu received the order, and then he could hear the uniform footsteps of the guards, and he gradually walked away.

Ying Yun sighed: "Three years of Qing Governor's Mansion, 100,000 snowflakes of silver, I didn't expect a small county order to be able to be greedy so much." ”

The emperor blushed and sat silently, watching the candle flame on the desk faint little by little.

When the ugly time passed, Ah Gui entered the garden to report that Wang Haide had been imprisoned in the county jail, and the confiscated family property was roughly estimated, and he handed the fold to the emperor.

At the same time, Ah Gui interrogated Wang Haide overnight, and presented his confession at dawn.

The next day's sun was faint, Yingyun couldn't resist the sleepiness of last night, lay on the bed and slept all night, and when she woke up now, she saw that the emperor was still sitting at the desk to review the chapter, so she put on a dress and walked gently to his side.

"Your Majesty, you shouldn't have slept all night, right?" Ying Yun saw his deeply sunken eyes, thick dark circles, and even stubble growing.

"Are you awake?" The emperor pointed to the confession indignantly and said, "I never dreamed that Wang Haide was actually a silverfish of the country, and I wanted to cut him with a thousand knives, how could I sleep peacefully?" Queen, do you know that when Ah Gui confiscated his house, he found that he used gold bricks to build a wall. No wonder he didn't want to be a Beijing official, it turned out that he fell into a bag of rice, and he was as greedy as a mouse! ”

Yingyun said: "However, the concubine sees that although Wang Haide is greedy for silver, he is not like an ordinary corrupt official, who squanders and enjoys it, but lives a frugal life, is there any other hidden meaning in this." ”

The Emperor pondered, "If this case is revealed, it will be the biggest corruption case since I ascended the throne. Today, I want to go to see Wang Haide in person, but no matter what he has secrets, this wind must not rise, otherwise the country will not be a country, and the foundation of the ancestors will be hollowed out. ”
