These rumors had arisen for a while, and the emperor was furious.

At this time, as soon as this kind of rumor about Zhongli came out, the emperor didn't need to open his mouth at all, and the prefect of the capital directly asked the officials to arrest people on the street, which frightened a person.

After the New Year's Festival, the Great Pilgrimage begins.

On the first day of the Great Dynasty, all the imperial envoys and doctors impeached the prefect of the capital without exception, and impeached him for abusing his power and harming the people.

The prefect could only stand up and cry out about his innocence.

"The emperor is aware that this is not the case. Weichen is worried that there are people below who are rumbling to confuse the public, and if the enemy is surrounded by today, if all kinds of rumors are spread like this, it is related to the safety of the court and has to be managed! ”

"That's a mistake, Lord Liu, do you mean that our Apocalypse has a shallow foundation, and we can shake the foundation with just a few dazzling words passed down by their word of mouth? What a joke! Since the emperor ascended the throne, he has widely applied good laws, and the life of the people of the entire Apocalypse is getting better and better day by day. ”

Who said that Yushi would only be recommended to die, once they slapped the sycophants, they would definitely shoot people who were comfortable all over, like drinking a sip of hot soup in the cold winter.

The emperor smiled with satisfaction, but turned his eyes to look at Governor Li.

"Although Yushi's words are reasonable, Governor Liu's words are not bad. That's all for now. If you have time, think carefully about how you can raise your food. ”

As the saying goes, soldiers and horses go first before they move grain and grass.

There was originally grain and grass in the border city, but this time General Wang brought a lot of people, it was definitely not enough, and the war was about to break out, so they could only go first, and the grain and grass would arrive later.

But he just received the excerpt from the household department, and the household department ran out of money! He had no money to prepare a surplus, and he was furious.

But after being angry, I looked for someone to check, and later found out that it was the prince's people who borrowed the money from the household little by little.

It was converted into 50,000 taels of gold, and this realization made him extremely angry, but now that the prince has been banned by him, it is not easy to find it.

The most painful thing for him is that it is very likely that the money was taken away by Prince Anqing's people little by little, and the prince will definitely not have such courage! In particular, he had nowhere to spend the money, and the fake account was just like the real thing.

If it weren't for the large-scale mobilization of money to buy grain, it would not have been discovered at all.

"Raising food? Your Majesty, is there no money in the household department? So how to fight? ”

Someone asked directly, while others began to buzz and talk.

Quan Fu saw the emperor's face change, and he hurriedly sang.

"Silence."

Everyone looked towards the emperor, and saw the emperor sneer.

"Whether you have money or not, you can explain it to everyone yourself."

Tobe Shangshu stretched out his hand to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead, stood up with a wry smile, and knelt directly on the ground.

"We-Chen, We-Chen's capital offense."

If the emperor hadn't sent someone to check before, he really didn't know that someone in his household department had made fake accounts, and he was just fooling his own household book.

The Emperor snorted coldly.

"Come on, take off his crown and wear a flower feather, dismiss him, and never hire him."

"Thank you for the gift of Lord Banzai!"

lost so many silver taels to the imperial court, the emperor was able to spare him, he was already very grateful, even if the money was taken by the prince, but the thunder and rain were all Jun's grace!

"Liu Zhishu, can you be my housekeeper?"

Liu Zhishu is the prefect of the capital just now, everyone knows this, in fact, although the emperor was very comfortable being patted by the imperial history just now, he still agrees with Liu Zhishu's words in his heart.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Liu Zhishu's mouth is bitter, even if he doesn't want to do it, but the emperor has a golden mouth and jade teeth, where is the reason to take back what he says?

Besides, he was promoted to the second rank of the official residence of the household department, but now he is only from the third grade.

But even so, he was not in a good mood at all.

He has only taken over as the prefect of the capital for a few days, and he has just cleaned up the mess left by the previous prefect for himself, and he thought that he could breathe a sigh of relief, but who knows, the emperor stuffed himself with a bigger one.

It's just a pit that doesn't pay for people's lives.

The crux of the matter is that he also smiled and thanked him as if he was grateful.

Although the emperor didn't say how much silver taels there were, but looking at the expression of the Hube Shangshu who breathed a sigh of relief just now, could he still count it in his heart?

The emperor put an end to this matter, and then began to give orders to Liu Zhishu.

"As the saying goes, there are three fires for a new official to take office, Liu Zhishu, I want you to come up with an effective plan for me tomorrow morning, can you do it?"

If Liu Zhishu could still force a smile just now, now he can only cry without tears.

With everyone's expressions of watching the show, he could only nod silently.

But after going down to the court, after talking to someone for a long time, he was pointed out a clear way.

"This, Lord Liu, you can go to the fourth prince and ask, he is a person who has been in the household department before, and he seems to have studied these very much."

With the idea of treating a dead horse as a live horse doctor, Liu Zhishu went to the Four Princes' Mansion, but was sent out by Zhao Zijian, and said something in the clouds, everything was related to Zhongli.

There was something strange about him.

Could it be that the fourth prince wants him to save Zhong Gongzi? However, this is a national event!

The housekeeper of the Four Princes' Mansion whispered to him kindly.

"You probably don't know, do you? Why did this Zhong Gongzi appear in the palace this time? That's a lot of doing good deeds, saving people in times of disaster, building bridges in water, doing too many of these things! You know, right? Although she is young, she is a self-made person, and she has only been noticed by the emperor for a few years, so think about it! ”

Liu Zhishu seems to know something, as if he doesn't know anything.

After he returned home, he found a small servant and asked them to inquire about Zhongli.

Except for the abundance of money and the abundance of Zhuangzi, everything else is said to be like a god.

Liu Zhishu didn't believe it very much, the more he said, the more it looked like a rumor in the market, and he had people arrest a large number of people who released these rumors. If you continue to spread false rumors now, you may be laughed at and lose your old face.

On the morning of the second day, the emperor asked Liu Zhishu.

Liu Zhishu didn't know what to say, so he could only kneel down and helplessly ask the emperor for his guilt.

"Please spare your majesty's life, Weichen may, not be good at this, and live up to your majesty's high expectations."

The Emperor looked around in exasperation.

"They don't, and neither do you? Fourth, is your mouth sealed? I remember that you went to the household department on an errand. ”

Zhao Zijian was listed.

"Yes, Your Majesty, Erchen does have his own shallow opinions, but he has to wait for the number of household deficits to come out before making plans. But now that the war is about to break out, Erchen is willing to donate 5,000 taels to the soldiers before the battle. ”

With Zhao Zijian opening his mouth, the other ministers of civil and military affairs seemed to have their brains suddenly enlightened, and followed to report the amount they wanted to donate.

"Report, eight hundred miles urgent."

Suddenly, the voice of the herald came from outside, and everyone couldn't help but change their expressions, and hurriedly turned their heads to look at the comer.

Generally, this kind of 800-mile rush is related to the war.

If you contact the situation before the border city, it is not difficult to think of others.

"Pass, pass!"

The Emperor hurriedly let people in.

This was the first battle that broke out in the matter of Prince Anqing, so it can only succeed, not fail.

He wants the whole world to see that he is the destiny of heaven, and he is the true son of the entire apocalypse, not his own prince brother who has long since died.

Quan Fu went down and took the letter, opened it, and read it word by word.

"Your Majesty, before Weichen came to the border city, a war had broken out in the border city, all with the plan of King Qingyang before leaving, and successfully repelled the enemy's entry into the palace, during this period, the students of the border city academy participated in the battle, and with their command, they could surprise the enemy camp. In addition, during this period, Zhong Liyu Zhong Gongzi took the lead in raising more than 100,000 quintals of grain and grass for the soldiers, and Shan Zhongli Yu Gongzi donated more than 70,000 quintals of grain and grass on behalf of his family, and the collection of grain and grass is still ongoing. Wechen is here to take credit for them. ”

It's already been fought, and it's been fought?

Border City Academy, is it the civilian academy that everyone said before? And 100,000 loads of grain and grass? Just kidding, right?

Even if all of them combined, it would only be enough to buy a small amount.

What's more, the price of grain in the border city is much more expensive than here.

Zhong Liyu, why is this person so familiar? Thinking of Zhongli, who had caused quite a stir before, everyone looked at the emperor strangely.

Zhao Zijian held his breath and concentrated, his face was calm and waveless, but his heart was particularly shocked.

70,000 quintals, what a big deal!

It's no wonder that he hadn't thought that Zhongli was a woman before, but would a woman dare to do this?

He didn't think it would be Zhongli's brother who did it, he had seen people, although they were a little better than others, but they didn't have such courage and skill.

So, did he already find a way out for himself before he entered the palace?

That's why he didn't rush or panic, just cared about getting Zhao Yiyan out?

Zhao Zijian lowered his eyes, his fingers clenched tighter, and the more Zhongli was like this, the more he couldn't let go of his hand.

She will be her own and will be her own.

And the emperor did not hide his gaffe at this time, his breathing was slightly heavy, his pupils shrank suddenly, and the wings of his nose kept moving because of excitement.

"Seventy thousand quintals! 70,000 quintals! These are my good people. ”

Even the emperor himself didn't know what kind of mood he was in when he said this, it wasn't seventy quintals of grain, it was seventy thousand quintals!

As the saying goes, the tree is scattered, and there is also a saying that it is easy to add icing on the cake, but it is difficult to send charcoal in the snow.

When Zhongli provoked the emperor's anger, no one spoke, and now after Zhongli's matter was revealed, someone immediately stood up.

"Your Majesty, the Zhong family is loyal and patriotic, and it should be rewarded."

"Emperor Qi, Wechen heard that Zhongli Zhong Gongzi has done a lot of good things for the Apocalypse, but he has never publicized or boasted, and Wechen thinks that he should be rewarded."

……

Hearing that everyone was praising Zhong Li and the Zhong family behind him, Zhao Zijian suddenly saw the emperor's expression, and his heart struck.

He didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one and stood up directly and saluted the emperor.

"Enlighten the father, the son thinks it is inappropriate."
