Chapter 429: Finding a scapegoat

His people thought that they had his backing, not to mention that they had intensified, but it could be regarded as blatant. In the end, he was beaten a few times, saying that it should not be too ugly, so he restrained it a little.

And the emperor just waited and watched the changes, and did not attack. When the time came, he estimated that they had a lot of silver, and asked them to hand it over.

Just filled the treasury, and then ruthlessly sent down the clansmen, which is exactly killing two birds with one stone. It has gained fame and benefits.

Xia Qing couldn't help but feel chills, he had forgotten the emperor's ruthless methods when he was young.

In recent years, the emperor has become older and gentle, and he has gradually forgotten the emperor's scheming and ruthlessness.

But from the cases of Wan Xuenian and Song Shujing, we can get a glimpse.

"My lord! Do you remember when an official came to you and said that your people were looting the people's fat and ointment? He Zhongkuan glanced at Xia Qing, who was contemplative, and knew that he had listened.

He ignored Zhang Xiansheng's words, this is a fool, and he doesn't bother to deal with it.

Before, he saw that this person was still a little scheming, and he was really wary of it for a while. But after a few things, he also saw it.

This person is a shrewd person who looks shrewd on the surface, but is actually a complete idiot.

He thinks that compared with such a person, his means are still much smarter, so Zhang Xiansheng is not worried.

Xia Qing's face was pale, and as soon as he heard what Mr. He meant, he knew that the two of them wanted to go together.

"Mr. Ho! Do you want to say that the emperor has taken a fancy to the money in his official family? Xia Qing put his hands behind his back, turned around, and looked at He Zhongkuan.

Xia Qing's words surprised Li Wei and the others, and they all looked at He Zhongkuan, and their expressions seemed to have understanding.

None of the people present were stupid people, and of course they understood the meaning of these two people's words, and they couldn't help but shudder.

It turns out that the emperor has been making plans so early, and it is undeniable that when the emperor was young, he was indeed strategic, otherwise he would not have sat on the throne. Even if there is an edict from the emperor and he is still the crown prince, which of the emperor's brothers seems to be the same?

"Indeed! That's exactly what it means in the next! He Zhongkuan nodded, he saw that Xia Qing and the others had already understood, they were not stupid people, and they could understand it at all.

"What does the emperor mean exactly? Do you want to raid your home? Xia Qing couldn't help but raise his heart again, what the clansmen did had nothing to do with him, especially his connivance.

If the emperor wants to pursue this matter, he will also be implicated, and maybe he will lose his black yarn hat.

"My lord! According to the guess, if the emperor wants to raid the house and take the opportunity to send you down, he will not wait until today. Judging from the current situation, the emperor is afraid that he is giving you a chance to give these coins in person. ”

He Zhongkuan thought about it for a while, and felt that the emperor's intention should still be in the silver. As for dealing with Shoufu, the emperor should not have such an idea at present.

In other words, it is still useful for the emperor to keep Xia Shoufu.

He Zhongkuan figured out the emperor's plan and didn't say it. It's just that Shi Shiran picked up the tea bowl on the table and took a sip, ignoring Xia Qing's inquiring gaze.

Seeing this, Xia Qing's face couldn't help but sink. This He Zhongkuan has some ability, and he has given him advice several times, which has given him a lot of benefits.

This person can speak well, and he still has some appreciation. It's just that He Zhongkuan has a shortcoming, that is, he likes to pretend to be a superior person, and whenever things come to a critical juncture, he likes to take Qiao, which makes him disliked.

However, people with skills usually have some tempers and unusual hobbies, and he is not easy to deal with this person.

Xia Qingqing coughed, and Li Wei had always heard the sound of the strings. Seeing that He Zhongkuan was drinking tea slowly, he couldn't help but twitch the corners of his eyes.

This person is really good at pretending, don't you see the strange difference in the face of Lord Shousuke? When has this been? The fire has burned the eyebrows, what are you still pretending?

"I wonder if Mr. He has any countermeasures? Do you really want the adults to give the money? Li Wei asked out loud, asking what everyone was thinking, and he also got Xia Qing's appreciation.

"Not bad! It's not that the official is reluctant to give up the money! But this thing is not very feasible, if you want to hand over the silver, then you must hand over the people of your own officials. But if the clansmen are disposed of by the government, it will inevitably affect the officials, isn't this more than worth the loss? ”

At this time, Xia Qing didn't have to hide it. After all, it is a well-known thing for other people to accumulate wealth, and there is nothing to hide.

But if the silver is handed over, it is very unfavorable to him, isn't this another handle to the emperor? If the emperor really took the opportunity to send him down, and he didn't have time to prepare, wouldn't he have killed himself?

Even if the emperor keeps him, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not make any excessive demands on him. The matter of side pay alone has exhausted him to deal with it.

Besides, if you hand over all the money looted by the clansmen, it will be far from the military salary!

Xia Qing also felt remorse in his heart at this time, and at the same time, he hated Gu Chengyu even more. If it weren't for Gu Chengyu, why would he be so passive, thinking of this, he couldn't help but complain that Min Feng was not angry.

"Someone! Go and invite Pingyun here. "Xia Qing and the others have figured out the emperor's meaning just now, and now they just need to find a solution.

This matter can be regarded as because of Min Feng, so I called him over at this time, just so that I could listen to how they discussed and resolved. This disciple is still too young, it's time for him to go through something.

Although Gu Chengyu was young, he could see that this person's city government was no worse than their old ministers, and even more so.

"My lord! If you really want to hand over the money in your clan, then there is a way to do it. He Zhongkuan pondered for a moment, and said confidently towards Xia Qing.

"Please also ask Mr. He to solve his doubts!" Xia Qing held back his temperament and arched his hand towards He Zhongkuan.

This action shows Xia Qing's sincerity, and He Zhongkuan also knows the truth of accepting it when he sees it. Hurriedly said: "My lord! You might as well kill your relatives in righteousness, find the most rampant wealth collector in the clan, and make him the scapegoat of the whole clan. This will not only keep the rest of your clan, but also hand in errands for the emperor. The most important point......"

He Zhongkuan smiled slightly, and continued: "You can also block the mouths of the world, so that outsiders can see, you will not shield the clansmen and let them do evil!" Isn't that a win-win-or- ”

Min Feng went to the study in the outer courtyard with apprehension. Before dinner, his senior brother had just returned from the mansion, and he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. It seems that the teacher still didn't believe him, discussed important matters, and didn't call him.

Although he knows that he has little qualifications and his methods are too immature, how many people can be born with experience? Isn't it something that has been experienced?

He fidgeted in the room, and was a little frightened, for fear that the teacher would dislike him because of this.

At this time, the teacher asked people to call him, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, which showed that the teacher had not given up on him.
