After sending Yun Jin away, Feng Bo's face instantly became serious, and he immediately ordered: "Go, let Ye Shangshu know what good deeds he has done." ”

Shangshu Mansion

"What! Did you embezzle disaster relief food? Ye Shangshu was so shocked that he directly knocked over the teapot on the table.

Poof!

Lord Langzhong Fan of the Ministry of Industry knelt down directly towards Ye Shangshu: "Lord Shangshu, the lower official only deducted a little bit, and there is not much ......"

As for what this point meant, Ye Shangshu naturally understood.

"You, you, you, you......" Ye Shangshu pointed at Fan Shilang's nose and scolded, "You are so bold!" Even this little bit of relief food is greedy, you don't want to die! ”

Fan Langzhong suddenly panicked, and hurriedly said: "Lord Shangshu, Xia Guan is also confused for a while, ask Lord Shang Shu to save Xia Guan, Xia Guan will definitely make grass rings in the next life, make cattle and horses for adults, and repay the great kindness of adults." ”

Let's talk about the things in the next life, and it is important to save your life in this life.

Ye Shangshu's face turned blue with anger: "Then you die!" You're dead, I'll burn you paper money! ”

"Lord Shangshu, you can't ignore the lower officials, the lower officials didn't catch a cent of the silver, and it all went into your pocket."

Hearing this, Ye Shangshu was shocked, and reprimanded: "You don't talk nonsense!" When did it get into the pocket of this official! ”

The corners of Fan Langzhong's lips hooked slightly, and he said, "Lord Shangshu, if it weren't for the generous gift to Lord Shangshu, how would you arrange for the lower officials to go to Jingzhou?" ”

"You threaten this officer!" Ye Shangshu roared sharply.

I saw Fan Langzhong bowing to Ye Shangshu: "The lower official didn't dare, but before the lower official went to Jingzhou, he gave some gifts and adults, and after returning from Jingzhou, he gave them generous gifts. ”

"My lord, the blue and white porcelain vase sent by the official two days ago can be returned to the eyes of adults?"

Ye Shangshu's face turned pale suddenly, isn't that vase just in his study right now.

"Take it, take it, take it all!"

Fan Langzhong raised his eyebrows and chuckled: "Lord Shangshu, how can there be any reason to take back the gift that was given, not to mention, even if the gift is taken back, it was you who recommended the lower officials to go to Jingzhou, and this matter cannot be faked." ”

The implication is that even if Ye Shangshu returns all the gifts, once Fan Langzhong is found out, he will still confess Ye Shangshu as soon as he goes to court. What if you go back? It's too late to retreat now!

Ye Shangshu suddenly snorted, and his lips trembled: "You are threatening this official, let me tell you, this official is the official of the Ministry of Shangshu, the concubine Niangniang in the palace is the sister-in-law of the official, and His Royal Highness King Zhao is the nephew of the official, you don't want to threaten the official!" ”

Ye Shangshu originally didn't have much talent, but it was only by relying on the relationship of Concubine De that he sat in the position of the secretary of the ministry, and Concubine De and King Zhao were his biggest dependents.

As he was talking, he suddenly heard the housekeeper at the door: "Master, several members of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Officials ask to see the master." ”

"Tell them to get out!" Ye Shangshu roared sharply.

The main reason for going to Jingzhou this time was to divert water, so the people sent out were basically people from the Ministry of Industry, and most of these officials were following the path of Ye Shangshu.

Everyone knows that this trip to Jingzhou is a good opportunity to make meritorious contributions, of course they will not let it go, and they have secretly given gifts to Ye Shangshu, who is in the east window, how not to be in a hurry, they can only find Ye Shangshu to save their lives.

Fan Langzhong said: "Xia Guan was still wondering, obviously Xia Guan was only a little greedy, how could there be such a big deficit, it turned out that Xia Guan took some fur." ”

There was a hint of sarcasm in the words.

Everyone is greedy, and if there are more people, there will naturally be a large deficit, and Jingzhou refugees will pour into the capital.

"Lord Shangshu, you can't avoid it, all the stolen money basically went into your pocket." Fan Langzhong gave Ye Shangshu a meaningful look.

As long as you accept the gift, you can't escape it.

Ye Shangshu's face turned pale, these days, King Zhao has been repeatedly impeached by courtiers, and the dignified son is still like this, not to mention that he is just a courtier. If it is known that these officials who embezzled public funds are all appointed by him, and because he has received favors from others, if the matter is exposed, he will inevitably be questioned.

Ye Shangshu's fingers were clenched into fists, pinched tightly, and the joints were white. How much benefit he received, he knew in his heart that now that the East Window incident happened, these people would definitely be investigated, so many people, as long as one person told the truth, then he couldn't escape.

Fan Langzhong's voice sounded in his ears, "Lord Shangshu, Xia Guan heard that His Royal Highness King Zhao is investigating this matter at the moment, and I also ask your Excellency to say good things for Xia Guan in front of His Royal Highness King Zhao. ”

Ye Shangshu said coldly: "You are wrong, the official did not take public funds, besides, it was not the official who asked you to embezzle public funds, it is you who are guilty, what is the crime of this official!" ”

"This ......" Fan Langzhong hurriedly said, "Lord Shangshu, you can't say that, the lower officials didn't get any benefits, and all the benefits were given to you." ”

"What do you say, the official doesn't know anything, those things of yours, the official will give them back to you, you go, today as if the official has not seen you, as for whether you will be found out, it depends on your own creation." Ye Shangshu pushed it away with all his might, he couldn't get into this lump of mud.

Fan Langzhong's face changed slightly, Ye Shangshu wanted him to fend for himself.

"Lord Shangshu, we are grasshoppers on a rope, if you don't help the lower officials, then you won't be able to please you!" Fan Langzhong was anxious.

Ye Shangshu waved his hand: "Butler, send off!" ”

Then he brushed his sleeves away and ignored Fan Langzhong again.

Ye Shangshu went to the study, and looked at these things that the people below "honored" him, and instantly felt that it was particularly eye-catching, and these things have become hot potatoes now.

How good is that?

Ye Shangshu thought for a long time, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly instructed the housekeeper: "Go, prepare a carriage for the official, and the official will enter the palace." ”

What did he do in the palace? Naturally, I went to find Concubine Ye De.

If he wants to get out of this matter, he can only let King Zhao's subordinates show mercy, so he first went to Concubine De to intercede, Concubine De is his sister-in-law, and she will always be soft-hearted. Concubine Ye De is King Zhao's biological mother, and when the concubine speaks, King Zhao will not disobey.

……

Fan Langzhong came out of Shangshu Mansion and returned home, but was told that Ye Chengxuan, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, was waiting for him in the front hall.

Fan Langzhong was overjoyed, but Ye Shangshu regretted it, so he sent his son over to make peace, after all, since Ye Shangshu received his money, he couldn't escape.

"Commander Ye is here, and the lower officials are far away." Fan Langzhong stepped forward with a smile and saluted.

Ye Chengxuan is the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, the official residence is from the first rank, and the official position is above him, so Fan Langzhong has to call himself a subordinate official in the face of Ye Chengxuan, a young man.

Fan Langzhong stepped forward to greet him enthusiastically, and then instructed the subordinates on the side: "Didn't you see that it was Commander Ye, why don't you go and get the best cloud tea collected by this official!" ”

However, Ye Chengxuan just waved his hand and said lightly: "No need, this commander will leave after saying a few words." ”

Fan Langzhong's face stiffened slightly, what does this Ye Commander want to say, it won't be a threat to him.

"Then Commander Ye sit down and speak." After saying that, he was embarrassed, and Ye Chengxuan never stood up from beginning to end.

Fan Langzhong was sneering, but he couldn't say anything, according to the rank, Ye Chengxuan was above him, and in the official speech, it couldn't be said that he Fan Langzhong was older than Ye Chengxuan. It's just that this is his mansion in the end, Ye Chengxuan is too polite, he is a guest, and when he sees the master, he refuses to even lift his feet.

Ye Chengxuan couldn't care so much, so he only glanced at Fan Langzhong lightly: "Where did Fan Langzhong go?" Why did your housekeeper say he didn't know? ”

Fan Langzhong was jumped, Ye Chengxuan looked at him as if he was looking at a dead man, and no, he just went to Commander Ye's house, why did Commander Ye ask this.

Could it be that he guessed wrong?

"Is it that hard to answer?" Ye Chengxuan's voice was slightly cold.

"No ......" Fan Langzhong replied immediately, and at the same time, his heart tightened, and a bad thought hit his heart.

Ye Chengxuan looked at him straightly, his eyes were faint, revealing a hint of murderous aura, "Fan Langzhong, you'd better tell the truth." ”

"Say!" Ye Chengxuan roared angrily, "How much are you greedy?" ”

Fan Langzhong was frightened by him, his legs instantly weakened, and he almost fell.

"Commander Ye, you misunderstood, how dare the lower officials embezzle public funds, the lower officials have no ......," Fan Langzhong hurriedly replied.

Ye Chengxuan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he glanced at Fan Langzhong coldly: "Master Fan, do you think you are convincing like this?" ”

"Or do you think the Archon found you by accident? If there is no evidence, how would this Commander have come to your door? Ye Chengxuan's voice was slightly cold.

Fan Langzhong hurriedly said: "Commander Ye, we are people in the same boat, you can't take me out to top the bag, I am just a small Ministry of Labor, where can I have the courage to embezzle so much public funds." ”

He pointed around again, crying and said: "Look at my family, it is simply poor, I really didn't lie to you, all the silver was exchanged for valuable things and given to Lord Shangshu." ”

"Lord Shangshu?" Ye Chengxuan frowned slightly, "Which Shangshu lord?" ”

Fan Langzhong couldn't cry or laugh: "Commander Ye, don't joke with the lower officials, as long as you save my life, I will definitely not talk nonsense." ”

Ye Chengxuan suddenly reacted, and his eyes shrank: "Where did you go just now?" ”

He suddenly remembered that the list of people who went to Jingzhou this time was drawn up by the Ministry of Officials, and the Secretary of the Ministry was his father Ye Fulin. Lord Shangshu, so this Lord Shangshu is not his father Ye Shangshu.

Thinking of this possibility, Ye Chengxuan only felt a chill in his heart.
