Chapter 37 Checking the Gambling Contract
The fighting qi cover was dispersed, and in the raging poisonous fire, Darui walked out with a relaxed face, and Barenda had completely turned into ashes, and there was not even a bone left.
Emperor Shengqi snorted coldly when he saw it, "It's really cheap for this thief, I didn't expect that my high-ranking official Houlu raised him, he was not only corrupt and bent the law, but also wanted to assassinate me, how can it really be reasonable! Let him die like this, it's too cheap for him." Whoever comes, immediately destroy the nine tribes of Balendayin and confiscate all his property. ”
Then Elena came out, "Your Majesty, although Balendain is dead, he still has a group of die-hard men, and the minister suggests that he immediately send troops to arrest the remnants of his party, lest they hear the news and flee, and then there will be endless troubles." ”
"Okay, Elena, the task of tracking down the remnants of Balendayin is entrusted to you, I don't care what means you use, in short, you must wipe out all his remnants!"
"Yes, my subordinates will go now!"
Elena took the order after speaking, and directly led her internal guard to arrest people, it seems that the pattern of the two factions in the internal guard is about to change.
The prime minister's gang didn't expect things to develop so quickly, and Balendaya or the second prince's faction was dismantled so simply, and from then on, they would have to face a complete internal guard.
Seeing that something was wrong, the chief steward of the Money Grain Academy, Willamke, was about to stand up and expose Dharrigia's murder of the noble officials, but before he could take a step, he was stopped by the prime minister without a trace.
"Now that Darigaia is in full swing, it's not the best time to come to light. ”
When Willamke looked at it, he found that Emperor Shengqi was praising Darui for his meritorious escort, and it was even more important to kill the thief Ballen Dayin and expose his crimes. Look at this meaning, Darui is likely to be promoted, and if he goes to expose Darui's killing now, it will be really unlucky.
Willamke, who is well aware of the rules of officialdom, naturally understands this truth, so he stood still with a gloomy face, and seemed to want to talk about it in a few days. But he didn't say it, but Dary Gaia brought it up first.
"Dari, what do you want to reward you for exposing Ballendayin's merits?"
"Your Majesty, I think it's better to let go of the reward first, because the minister still has something to report to you. ”
"Oh, what do you say......"
Darui took out another confession and asked the waiter to pass it to the Holy Emperor Emperor, while turning his head to look at the prime minister.
"Your Majesty, yesterday when the minister went to the Qianliang Yuan to collect the monthly activity funds of the garrison regiment, he found that the Qianliang official actually dared to withhold it privately! Later, after some interrogation, the minister learned that this was already the practice of the Qianliang Academy. In the past, the funds of the garrison regiment were all deducted by them, so it is enough to count tens of thousands of gold coins!"
"What? There is such a thing? Willamok, what's going on? Are you guys really doing this?"
Willok didn't expect Darry to speak first, and immediately walked out in fear, kneeling on the ground.
"Your Majesty, Dary Gaia is pure nonsense, he led people to break into the Qianliang Courtyard yesterday, beat my men, and later killed four high-ranking nobles. At that time, many people at the scene could testify, please Your Majesty to see. ”
"Oh, Dary, did you really kill four noble officials?"
"No, when have I ever killed a noble official? Steward Willa, are you too old to remember correctly?"
"You...... Yesterday you obviously killed four noble officials, and everyone present at the time can testify, do you still want to deny it?"
The old man was angry, he didn't expect Darui to even admit such a thing, his chest rose and fell violently, and he was very angry.
"Darui, what's going on?" Emperor Saint Qi's voice cooled, this kind of fact that was seen by many people, it was impossible for Emperor Darui to deny it, Emperor Shengqi didn't understand why Darui was playing tricks on this kind of thing, and he didn't agree with it in his heart.
"Your Majesty, I killed four people yesterday in the Qianliang Courtyard, but those were four corrupt criminals with bad behavior, how could they be aristocratic officials! Could it be that those four embezzlers could actually be nobles? If so, it would be very unexpected. ”
Willamok's face changed, and he hurriedly pointed at Dary and shouted, "You are talking nonsense! They are all excellent noble officials, why do you say that they are embezzlers!"
"Why? With the confession in Your Majesty's hand, and the person who wrote it, plus the forty gold coins that you received from your money and grain courtyard, all the human evidence, the physical evidence, and the confession, can't this prove their guilt?"
"You...... This is all written by you forced Jefferson, and it is not a real situation at all, and the accounts of the Money and Grain Institute have always been clear and clear, and there can be no corruption. ”
Darui looked at him with a look of disbelief, "Chief steward, it's impossible that these three words are not just said casually, the accounts of your money and grain institute are not clear, and it is not up to you to have the final say, I think you better not talk so much." ”
"You!"
Willamke was so angry that he couldn't breathe, he couldn't help it, he was getting older. At this moment, Prime Minister Dritte, who had been quiet, finally stood up.
"Your Majesty, now that the two of them are saying their own things, I believe that it is difficult for Your Majesty to identify who is telling the truth, I don't think it is as good as this, since the head of Darui said that the accounts of the Qianliangyuan are false, then it is better to let him check the accounts, as long as he can find out something, it will prove that the people of the Qianliangyuan are lying, if he can't find out, then ......"
"If you can't find out, it means that his confession was written by Jefferson, and it has no effect at all!" Willamke finally relented and answered triumphantly.
Emperor Shengqi frowned secretly when he heard this, check the accounts! It's really a joke, the accounts of the Qianliang Academy have not been checked before, but it is not that he can't find anything every time. Even the people who specialize in this line of work can't be found, let alone Darui, a military general.
He was a little hesitant here, but Darui didn't know how to agree.
"Okay, the Prime Minister's suggestion is really good, as long as the Qianliangyuan dares to take out the real account book, and don't fool me with the fake, it's too easy to find out the cat inside!"
"What do you mean? do you mean we'll give you fake ledgers?" yelled Willamq.
"That's not true, in my eyes, none of the officials of your money and grain academy are clean, and such people can't do anything, and it's too possible to make a few fake accounts. ”
"You...... You're a personal attack, you're a frame-up. ”
Seeing that the two were about to fight again, Prime Minister Dritter spoke again, "If the head of Darui doesn't believe in the chief steward, you can go to the Money and Grain Institute to collect the account books now, so that they don't have time to prepare, and they will definitely be able to get the real account." ”
As soon as these words came out, Darry suddenly looked at Driter with a strange expression, a little confused about what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd.
"Strange, what is this guy doing, isn't the Qianliangyuan with him? Why is he not in a hurry at all, but he has come to recruit me. Could it be that their ledger is really flawless?"
At this time, Dritter pilgrim Emperor Qi said: "Your Majesty, since both of them have agreed, I think how about doing it in this way?"
Emperor Shengqi nodded with a gloomy face, the matter has developed to this point, he can't stop it even if he wants to. You can't pull over Darui now and tell all the mysteries of the account book of the Money and Grain Academy.
"Alright then, let's do it this way. ”
"Your Majesty is wise, but there must always be a time limit for checking the accounts, and you can't check it endlessly, which will not only be laborious, but will also affect the normal work of the Qianliang Academy, so ...... Why don't you set a deadline, ten days?"
"Ten days! I'm afraid this is ......" Emperor Shengqi knew the terrifying amount of the account book of the Qianliang Academy, not to mention finding out the fake accounts inside, even if he browsed them, ten days might not be enough.
Of course, Driter understood this, but he didn't say it, but pretended to be serious and said: "Your Majesty, the Money and Grain Institute is related to the circulation of currency in the whole country, and a ten-day shutdown is already the limit, and if it lasts longer, there will be chaos." ”
Looking at the embarrassed appearance of the Holy Emperor Qi, Darui realized that it must be very difficult to check the accounts, but what he couldn't stand the most was Dritter's calm appearance, which was obviously a major cancer of the empire, and this kind of person was actually mixed up and constantly did things that hindered the development of the empire, but he couldn't eradicate him. This annoyed Dary! At the same time, this is also the reason why Dary had a face-to-face with the idol Rynhalt yesterday, after all, he is still young, and his patience is not as good as that of an old oilman like Dritter.
"Your Majesty, since the time can't be delayed for too long, I don't think it will take ten days, just five days. A cancer like the Qian Liang Yuan should be quickly cut through the mess and uproot them in one go!"
"Okay, Captain Darui is really compelling, he is worthy of being a soldier, and he is different from what he does!"
Looking at the contempt in Derrit's eyes, Darry smiled coldly and fought-for-tat.
At this point, Emperor Shengqi could only issue a holy decree, stipulating that Darui should check the accounts of the Qianliangyuan within five days, and if he could not find any problems, he would be demoted and bear the charge of killing the noble officials. And if something is wrong, then all the relevant personnel of the Qianliang Hospital, not a single one will try to escape, and all of them will be sentenced to death!
This is like a big gamble, on the one hand, the future and life of Darui, a new star in the military world, and on the other hand, the structure of the power of the Qianliangyuan, once they are found out, the Qianliangyuan will have a big change, and then the prime minister's side will completely lose control of it, and the Qianliangyuan will also return to the embrace of imperial power.
Subsequently, Emperor Shengqi personally ordered the warriors of the Golden Palace to go to the Qianliang Courtyard to check the account books and take all the account books away. All the big and small officials of the Mianqian Grain Courtyard will be closely monitored during these five days, except that they are not in the cell, and they are no different from being in prison.
Feeling the determination of the Holy Emperor of Enlightenment, Dritter also became cautious and decided not to hit his own people in the past five days.
Darui left with the holy decree, and the officials also retreated from the court with their own hearts, they all felt that the imperial capital was probably going to change, and the situation would be very tense for a period of time today, and anyone who dared to take the lead would be wiped out, so it was better to hide at home and stay honestly.
The second prince, Lannard, walked out in despair, and Balendayin died, which meant that the internal guard would be Elena alone, and he would no longer be able to affect the internal guard. He was already gradually losing power, but now he really feels like he has no way out.
Just as he was about to reach the door, a palace attendant ran up to him and saluted him.
"Second Highness, Your Majesty has an order to send you to the apse to talk, please. ”
Lannad was shocked, his face changed at that time, and he said secretly: What's the matter? What is my father asking me to do now? Could it be ......
Thinking of the worst-case scenario, a cold sweat broke out on Lanard's head, and he followed the waiter towards the apse with trepidation.
As soon as he entered the gate of the apse, Lan Nade saw the extremely stinky face of the Holy Emperor Qi, and the uneasiness in his heart became even heavier.
"Go down, all of you, and let no one come in without my permission. ”
"Yes......"
All the attendants walked down and closed the door of the apse, leaving only the Holy Emperor and his son in the entire hall.
"Lanard, is that flaming red nightclub your property? you tell me honestly, don't lie to me!"
"Father, that nightclub really has nothing to do with me, it was all done by Balendayin himself, and I didn't know until now that he actually did that kind of thing, I ...... I really didn't know beforehand, Father, you have to trust me!"
"It's all at this point, you're still lying, you're still lying! You're really hopeless! Take it and see what's written on it!"
Several ledgers were tossed over, and Lannard picked them up with a pale face and trembling hands, then swallowed and slowly opened them.
"It's!"
Seeing the contents, Lannard was completely dumbfounded, only to see that it clearly recorded how much money he withdrew from nightclubs each month, how much money was paid by loan sharks, and the proceeds from human trafficking. I remember everything very clearly, even the time and what kind of money was withdrawn, and I can't let others not believe it.
Emperor Shengqi sat on the dragon chair, as if he had aged ten years all of a sudden, "Do you understand? This is the back hand of Balendaya, once he has an accident in the future, he will use these account books to blackmail you, look at your appearance, don't you know his actions at all?"
"Father...... Father, the son is wrong, the son of the minister has a fever in his head before he fell into the role of Balendayin, please father and emperor, for the sake of flesh and blood, spare the son of the son this time. I swear that I will never make this mistake again. ”
"I have repeatedly accommodated you, but you have repeatedly disappointed me, and now it seems that you have become what you are now, and my father also has an unshirkable responsibility. Alas...... Go down, you are the prince, I will not kill you for the sake of the face of the empire, from now on you are not allowed to go out of the imperial capital, nor are you allowed to interact with any officials in the court, you will live the next life honestly. ”
"Father, the son knows that he is wrong, and his father ......"
Physically and mentally exhausted, the Holy Emperor stood up, ignored Lannard, and walked out of the place......
