Looking at the name on the account book, Bai Li Qingcang was furious, and slapped the account book on the table with a snap.

When he heard the name of the place where the fire was burning from the mouth of Yin of the Jingwei Mansion, the faces of many officials were difficult to see, and by the time he presented the account book, some people had already fainted with pale faces.

According to the law of Da'anguo, officials are not allowed to enter and leave Fengyue places. It's just that when they put on official uniforms, they are officials, and when they take off their official uniforms, they are not ordinary men. Who can give up those lingering nests and gentle villages?

Those old bustards who opened the Qinglou knew their identity and didn't dare to talk nonsense, so they went more and more unscrupulously, and some even held Oiran and raised the outer room in the Qinglou.

None of this is recorded in the books, is it?

They originally had luck in their hearts, but Baili Qingcang's angry shout completely shattered their luck.

Baili Qing's whole body trembled, and his face was faintly blue.

Shen Ninghua got up: "Quickly take a Snow Lotus Pill and give it to my father." ”

The chief chamberlain hurriedly complied, and was relieved to see that the emperor's face had softened a little.

Baili Qingcang's fingers trembled and pointed at the officials below: "You guys...... You ......"

"The emperor is angry."

Baili Qingcang suddenly opened an account book: "On June 18, Liu Hujun participated in the Oiran Hundred Gold...... The Senate of Qian Tong spent two or three thousand silver, and won the Oiran overnight......"

Baili Qingcang threw the account book in his hand to the ground violently, and took another one with his hand: "Taifu Siqing...... Shao Zhan Shi...... Shaoqing ...... Spending money like flowing water, it's really generous, you are really rich! ”

"Your Majesty, the ministers have been wronged."

"Yes, I don't know who forged this account book, is it to wipe out the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military affairs?"

"The emperor is clear."

Baili Qingcang's eyes were full of blizzard: "I want to know who recorded these account books?" Well, I'll tell you that these account books are to be recorded and sent to the princes' mansions! The third, the fourth, the sixth, don't you say? ”

The three people who were named hurriedly knelt on the ground: "Father, the son is wronged, there is no such thing, please ask the father to investigate." ”

"Father, the law of my Da'an Kingdom clearly prohibits it, how can my son do it deliberately?"

"Please see it."

Baili Qingcang slammed the account book in his hand to the ground: "Okay, don't admit it, right, where is the leader of the Dragon Scale Army?" ”

"Subordinates listen to orders."

"Go and seal up all the Qinglou in Kyoto, all the people who have been seized are imprisoned, and the silver two copies are confiscated into the palace, and carried to the Chengqian Palace, so that the officials and princes of Da'an can take a good look."

"Yes."

Shen Ninghua and Baili Junyi sat side by side in their seats, looking coldly at those officials who were in a trance and covered with cold sweat, without the slightest sympathy in their hearts.

Some people eat the king's money, but they never want to worry about the king, and since they are going to be away for a while, then they should clean up these moths.

Capture the thief and capture the king first, and wait until these big moths in the court are killed, and the little minions who collect money for them can be slowly cleaned up, anyway, after leaving Kyoto, they have time.

The efficiency of the dragon scale guard is not comparable to that of ordinary guards, but in most of the hour, the fire was extinguished, and the gold caves were turned upside down, and a large number of silver jewels and land deeds and silver tickets that had not yet had time to be transported were turned out and sent into the palace in carriages and horses.

Baili Qingcang's mouth was dry, and he trembled with his hands when he picked up the teacup, and it took a while to calm down and take a sip of tea. He thought that the Dragon Scale Army would definitely find out the evidence if he rummaged through it, but he didn't expect that the harvest would be greater than he imagined.

Boxes full of gold and silver ingots were carried in, because they were so full that they couldn't even cover the lids, and the golden colors of the eyes didn't know how many people's eyes were red.

At first, Baili Qingdian could still be calm, but when more than 20 boxes were brought in, he couldn't sit still, and walked down the steps, he walked to a box and picked up a gold ingot, a full ten taels, and this box was a thousand taels of gold......

His body was cloudy, and his anger was like thunder: "But the statistics have come out, how many silver taels are there?" ”

The commander of the Dragon Scale Army knelt down and replied: "Back to the emperor, a total of 3.3 million taels of silver, five boxes of jewelry, 12 boxes of precious calligraphy, painting and porcelain have been seized, and there are 48 land deeds of houses and stores, and others are still being counted. ”

"Three million taels?" Baili Qingcang's head was buzzing, and he gritted his teeth stubbornly, "The drought in the northwest is in urgent need of silver taels for disaster relief, and the household department can't even take out one million taels, and now just a few Qinglou restaurants have been investigated, and three million taels have been found?" ”

Baili Junyi stepped forward and looked at the box full of gold and silver, and smiled mockingly: "Father, I'm afraid these silver taels are only the income of the last few months, and after so many years, I am afraid that the gold and silver earned will be more than a dozen." ”

Baili Qingcang's chest was so painful, he couldn't have imagined that at the feet of the Son of Heaven, someone would dare to make such a big profit!

"I really can't imagine it, I can't imagine that my officials, at the critical moment, let you donate money for disaster relief, you can't even take out a thousand taels, but now you can spend a hundred or thousands of gold to hold a few courtesan plays, okay, really good, who are the people raised by my court? Is it the official who helps me govern the world? No, you're demons who only know blood! ”

Baili Qing's words were incoherent, and he didn't know how to describe his mood.

The officials were all frightened by his anger, and they wanted to lie directly on the ground.

Baili Qingcang thought of the masters behind those green buildings, and his eyes were as sharp as knives and looked at the prince present: "The third, fourth, and sixth, are you the masters behind these green buildings?" ”

He had always known that several princes were not at ease, but what prince could not have the slightest covetousness for the throne? As long as their petty fights do not affect the stability of Da'an, he can turn a blind eye and regard it as a tempering of the crown prince, but if this matter is true, then how much wealth have his sons collected behind his back and how many officials have mastered?

Is it that after a while, they will be able to control the entire court, and when the time comes, what will happen to him, the emperor?

Thinking of this result, he felt a chill in his heart, followed by an overwhelming killing intent, he had controlled the country for almost thirty years, and he would not allow anyone to challenge his position, not even his own son!

The first to speak was the third prince: "Father, the son is wronged, the son doesn't know what Baihualou and Qianhualou are, how dare he use this means to collect money?" ”

The fourth prince hurriedly answered: "Yes, father, the sons are the same as the third brother, you also know that although I love to play on weekdays, the most I often go to is a few restaurants, and the ministers of this flower building will never dare to touch their hands." ”

The sixth prince was calmer than both of them, his face was calm and calm, and he did not see the slightest panic: "Father, since the son was grounded by his father, he only thinks about reflecting on himself, and he doesn't even go out of the palace on weekdays, copying the scriptures of filial piety all day long, praying for his father and mother, and asking his father to learn about it." ”

His reaction was too great for the third and fourth princes to react.

Baili Qingcang squinted his eyes, and his tone was terrifying: "I have tolerated a lot of things before, and I will absolutely tolerate today's affairs, even if it is to kill most of the officials in the court!" Even if it involves my sons! Where is the commander of the Dragonscales? ”

"The subordinates are here!" The Dragon Scale Guard Commander stepped forward to receive the order.

"Where's the Shadow Guard?" Baili Qingcang drank coldly.

"The subordinates are here!" The figure of the dead man who had just caught the palace maid appeared out of nowhere again.

Baili Qingcang gritted his teeth, and his eyes burned with anger:

"Check!"

"Yes, my subordinates are commanded."

Waves of people and horses quickly spread from the imperial palace to the whole of Kyoto, and Baili Qingcang sat on the throne expressionlessly, and the heavy coercion forced the crowd almost out of breath. This chilling feeling had not appeared for a long time, and they had almost forgotten the iron-blooded methods of this emperor.

Shen Ninghua lowered her eyes, and her eyes were extremely calm from beginning to end.

Time passed little by little, it was obviously a cool night, but many officials were sweating, they had been kneeling for about two hours, and the dragon scale army and shadow guards who went to investigate had no news.

Baili Qingcang sat motionless on the throne, and no one knew what kind of anger was brewing in the emperor's heart.

Shen Ninghua raised her eyes to look at the dark sky outside, thinking of the two children, they should be asleep, and they slept extremely sweetly, but I don't know how many people will be sleepless all night from today onwards.

After another hour or so, there was a faint sound of chickens crowing outside, and many officials turned pale, their knees ached and numb, and their bodies were shaky.

The Dragonscales and Shadow Guard are finally back! Boxes of gold, silver, and jewelry were brought in, and many officials fainted when they saw the familiar colors and markings of the boxes.

The shadow guard presented the secret fold: "Master, my subordinates have raided many officials' mansions, and all the things seized are registered in the register, please take a look at them." ”

The leader of the Dragon Scale Army knelt respectfully beside the ground, he had seen the shadow guards, and he also knew that the emperor's shadow guards were ruthless, the emperor rarely used them, and once they were used, it would definitely be a bloody storm.

For example, today, if they investigate alone, at most, they will check the whereabouts of the silver two, catch those old bustards and singers, and ask the ins and outs of the matter, but the shadow guard is dispatched, but they directly raid the official's mansion, whether it is a small official or a big official, they are all investigated!

Looking at the contents on the dense fold, Baili Qingcang supported the imperial case with his hand, and after a while the black in front of him retreated, he did not question angrily, but spoke directly:

"Escort Commander Liu Tong, kill and decide! The General Secretary of the General Administration Council Senator Qian Yuan, make a decision! Zhang Bing, the Taifu Temple, cut the ......"

"Your Majesty, the Emperor spares your life!"

"Your Majesty, Wechen is guilty, Wechen deserves death, for the sake of Wechen's more than ten years of conscientiousness, you can spare Wechen's life."

The officials who were named were so frightened that some of them peed their pants directly. Kill and decide, that's a chopping and duel, is the emperor really going to attack the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military forces?

The shadow guards didn't give them a chance to distinguish at all, and every time Baili Qingcang named a name, two people came out of the ranks, grabbed the kneeling official and dragged him out directly! What will happen to being dragged down, they don't dare to imagine at all!

The third prince and the others were also stunned, they never thought that there was such a force in the hands of their father, they had no other thoughts at all, they just wanted to wash themselves quickly, did they really wash themselves?
