Chapter 855: Folk Construction
Looking at Ye Xinyan, who was kneeling on the ground, but not half afraid, the emperor couldn't stop getting angry.
Thinking that she is a little woman, breaking into such a big Louzi for the imperial court, standing in the palace, standing in front of him and the important ministers of the court, she doesn't have the consciousness of a sinner, it's extremely arrogant!
Jinrong looked at Ye Xinyan and could only express deep speechlessness. According to Jiang Yifan's design, she should indeed be an innocent character, but aunt, do you want to be like no one else? Can't you give your majesty and us princes and ministers a little face?
Alas, Jin Rong glanced at the crown prince and the Fu Wang who were on either side of him, and looked at the resentful expressions of the two towards Ye Xinyan, and couldn't stop sweating for her.
It is also this girl's luck that An Guogong's combat power is unparalleled, and the Ye family is a hardcore royalist force. Serving the imperial power for generations, no matter who is on the throne, no matter who is the head of the family, An Guogong is only loyal to the throne.
If it weren't for this, wouldn't the leaves have already been shaded to the point that I don't know where to go?
The emperor was expressionless, and said lightly: "Since you know, let's talk about it." ”
Ye Xinyan was ready to be reprimanded and questioned by the emperor, and also prepared various versions of defense, but she didn't expect the emperor to let her talk about it so unsavourily.
What can she say?
According to Jiang Yifan's character in this case, she should not know anything, but just use the materials and parts sent by the imperial court step by step to assemble them into a track, and everything is normal.
Ye Xinyan looked up in confusion, and stupidly issued a question word, "Huh?" "Why do you ask this girl to speak, this girl really doesn't know what to say. Would you like to give me a heads up?
As soon as she raised her head and spoke, the emperor's originally angry mood suddenly changed, and she felt that this scene was extremely funny.
For a moment, the emperor even felt that the omission of the track project did not seem to be a big deal.
It's just that this thought flashed, and the emperor's heart was full of joy, and he immediately straightened his attitude.
Fortunately, I was almost crooked by the Ye family's girl.
The emperor frowned, his face was cold, and he said: "Guangsha Construction contracted the rail transportation project of the imperial court, and there was such a big mistake, you can talk about this matter." ”
Ye Xinyan had no choice but to say "oh", since you want to talk about it, let's talk about it. But this can only be said according to the setting of the script, as for whether the emperor is satisfied with the little woman's statement, it is not a matter of the little woman.
"Your Majesty, Guangsha Construction uses the materials provided by the imperial court, and lays the track meticulously in accordance with its own rules. A few days ago, the courtiers heard from their husbands that there were rumors in the market that there was a problem with the materials of the track. ”
While Ye Xinyan was speaking, she raised her head and glanced at the emperor again before continuing: "The courtiers think that the hidden danger of the wooden track project is that the bandits are too rampant and dare to fight the idea of the imperial court project, and they can also stretch out their hands to the imperial court and make trouble in the Ministry of Industry.
This is really not a force that we and other private construction banks can contend with. Guangsha Construction is a real victim, and the Beijing Yamen or Dali Temple should severely crack down on these evildoers and hold them accountable. I hope that Your Majesty will be enlightened. ”
When everyone heard this, their faces became strange.
King Fu and Wang Xian almost jumped up from the ground, this shameless woman could actually say such a thing. According to what she said, Guangsha Construction made the project of the imperial court like this, not only did it not happen, but it could also get some compensation!
Although Wang Xian didn't jump up, he immediately defended: "Your Majesty, Weichen can guarantee that there is absolutely no problem with the materials sent from the Ministry of Industry." Moreover, the materials are transported to the rail construction site, which are all inspected by Guangsha Construction. ”
"Your Majesty, the courtiers don't dare to question the internal affairs of the court, but the construction of the Guangsha is really harmed by bandits." Ye Xinyan kowtowed again.
Nima, as long as people reply to the question, she just bows on the spot, and she has to kneel on the ground in front of everyone to justify. The emperor couldn't sympathize with him, because she still felt guilty about him before.
Han Yanhui's eyebrows couldn't stop jumping, it's not a matter of asking like this. Ye Xinyan is not a child, and she can't cheat anything at all.
The emperor's method of questioning has no effect except to delay time.
He said: "Your Majesty, based on what Weichen has seen, let's ask how Guangsha Construction manages materials and how to use problematic materials for projects." ”
The emperor also noticed that after Ye Xinyan came in, the way he asked questions was a little too rash and simple.
"You Chenghui, you tell her." The Emperor said.
You Chenghui felt bitter in his heart, and said decently: "According to the investigation of the Beijing Yamen, last year, some lawbreakers used inferior road spikes, bolts and iron clips to replace materials with the Ministry of Industry number to make profits. According to the investigation, these numbered materials belong to the wooden track project. ”
The emperor stared at Ye Xinyan and asked: "To build a rail transportation project, the imperial court will use all the tax balance for a year. The use of those inferior materials on the track has fundamentally shaken the solidity of the track line. In other words, the track built by the imperial court with huge sums of money has been scrapped. Due to the negligence in the construction of the Guangsha, it has caused huge losses to the imperial court, are you guilty? ”
Ye Xinyan secretly scolded herself: It would be good if you asked like this earlier, so that everyone didn't have to hide their sloppy eyes, and they would have been able to speak well a long time ago.
What a waste of time.
She was busy touching the ground and kowtowed a few times, although there was no movement in kowtowing, but the voice that spoke was honestly afraid: "The courtiers are guilty, and the courtiers are willing to accept the punishment of the court law." However, the courtiers implore Your Majesty if they can first let the courtiers and the Guangsha build a meritorious service and make a remedy for the quality of the track. ”
Liu Chengzhi snorted coldly in the queue and said: "The track project has been completed, and all the materials have been used, how can you say that you can remedy it?" ”
The emperor's expression was also uncertain, and he also hoped that there would be a remedy for this track. However, intellectually, he suspected that he had misheard, or that Ye Xinyan was overly frightened in the face of such a huge loss, which caused her to speak nonsense.
As Liu Chengzhi said, all the materials have been mixed. If it were to be remedied, wouldn't it be necessary to completely renovate the entire track? This is not something that a private construction bank can afford financially.
For the sake of a glimmer of hope in his heart, and this woman's often unexpected means, the emperor still asked coldly: "Have you thought about it, this is the track of the entire line, how can you afford this kind of remedy?" ”
Ye Xinyan heard the hope in the emperor's words, hurriedly straightened up, and said: "Your Majesty, all the construction of Guangsha has detailed records, including material management records. Now that the Beijing yamen already knew the numbers of the materials, the courtiers were able to find potential accident sections based on the construction records of the construction bank. Your Majesty, the remedy mentioned by the courtiers is to rework the accident section, not to relay the entire track. The courtiers can guarantee that after rework, they will definitely collect the quantity of those inferior materials. ”
