"That's what my lord said." The waiter of the Criminal Department nodded and said: "It's just that the prince's attitude towards state affairs has always been tough, and I don't think it's so easy to stop this matter." ”

Shangshu of the Criminal Department said lightly: "These things should be worried about by the Ministry of War, it is really not something we should worry about, the discord between the prince and Ning Xiang is no longer a matter of three or five days, but Ning Xiang is very cunning, and has been secretly planning these things, but they have done it well, even if the prince wants to talk about his mistakes, there has been no evidence, I hope that this time Qingxia will not become the second Nanzhao." ”

"Speaking of Qingxia's matter, I just remembered that Qingxia's envoy is still in the Criminal Department, so I'll send him out of the Criminal Department!" The soldier's squire said softly.

Gu Zhijian ran back very quickly when he heard this, his memory was not bad, even in such a panicked situation, he still didn't find the wrong place.

The Shangshu of the Criminal Department and the Squire of the Criminal Department smiled at each other after seeing the news of the black shadow on the window lattice, and the Squire of the Criminal Department opened the door and walked out slowly.

When the waiter of the Criminal Department arrived at the room where he was talking to Gu Zhijian before, he was sitting there in a daze, and the waiter of the Criminal Department hurriedly said: "Let the messenger wait for a long time, we are also investigating this matter these days, that person was not killed by you, you can go back to the post station first, thank you for your cooperation this time." ”

Gu Zhijian had something in his heart at this time, and when he heard him say this, he didn't feel relaxed in his heart, he asked softly: "Thank you, I just don't know how the prince thinks of this case?" ”

"The prince is in charge of every day on weekdays, and he won't pay attention to these small cases at all, this matter has been found to have nothing to do with you, I will send someone to send you back." The waiter of the criminal department pulled out a thousand gold in twos.

Gu Zhijian knew that he couldn't ask too much from his mouth, and he was a little uneasy in his heart, so he walked out immediately, and the waiter of the criminal department saw him with a little disdain in his eyes.

When Gu Zhijian walked out of the Punishment Department, he happened to see many carriages coming towards the palace, he had something in his heart, and he didn't care what those carriages were doing, just walked forward with his head down.

But suddenly I heard someone say: "It's really strange, how can today's early tax be so much earlier than in previous years?" ”

"It is said that it is the meaning of the prince." Another said: "Where can we guess the thoughts of the superiors, but this tax has to be paid anyway, and there is no essential difference between early payment and late payment." ”

"That's what I said, it's just that when we sent tax grain into Beijing yesterday, it was clear that the granaries were full, and the prince was so anxious to collect the grain and grass and there was no place to put it, and now these things can only be put in the big warehouse by the palace first, which is really strange."

"It is said that this is not only the case in Beijing, but also in other state capitals."

Gu Zhijian heard these words, and he couldn't help but feel nervous, he raised his eyes and saw a lot of carriages full of things standing on the long street, and at this time, he didn't know why he was walking very slowly.

Gu Zhijian looked at the bags, pinched them when people were not paying attention, and then cut a small opening, which was indeed full of grain and grass, and he couldn't help but look at the corner of the street along the line carrying grain, but saw that the whole street was full of people carrying grain.

He pulled a coachman beside him and asked, "Where are you going to carry so much grain and grass?" ”
