"Money and sex? How? ”

Emperor Qianxiu frowned slightly, and when she heard these two words, she subconsciously felt disgusted.

Any courtier, who has anything to do with these two words, will basically do something rebellious.

After Lin Yiqiu heard this, he continued to arch his hand: "Your Majesty, all this still needs to start from one place, Xiangyue Tower!" ”

"Xiangyue Building?"

Emperor Qian's brows furrowed even deeper.

"Isn't that the land of green buildings? How did it have anything to do with this meeting? ”

Hearing this, Lin Yiqiu said with a smile: "It's a good Qinglou, but it's really related to this exam." ”

"The source of all this is actually because of a woman, one of the top brands of Xiangyue Building, Caidie Girl!"

After Lin Yiqiu finished speaking, he straightened out his thoughts a little.

Seeing that Emperor Qiandi became more and more confused, he didn't continue to bend and got out completely.

"The talented butterfly girl of Xiangyue Building is one of the most beautiful top brands in Xiangyue Building."

"Zhou Han, as a waiter in the Ministry of Rites, often goes to Xiangyue Tower for recreation, and he also has a lot of intersections with this colorful butterfly girl!"

Before he finished speaking, Emperor Qian had already taken the lead in snorting coldly.

"A minister of etiquette is deeply involved with the woman in the Qinglou, this Zhou Han is really giving the face of the minister of etiquette and giving me the face of the head of the country!"

There was already a heavy dissatisfaction in his tone.

Lin Yiqiu's face was extremely embarrassed.

Xinzhi is also a minister of the Ministry of Rites, and he is still a eunuch, and he has a lot to do with Qinglou.

Who is going to reason with this? Money and sex he also accounts for...

But at this time, he naturally did not find himself bored, but echoed for a while.

"Your Majesty is right, this is related to the Qinglou woman, it really shouldn't be the style of the minister of etiquette, and the minister also hates this kind of behavior very much!"

"This Zhou Han is simply disregarding ethics and morals! It's really despised, and I, a eunuch, look down on him! ”

"That's it! Don't talk nonsense! Go on! ”

Emperor Qiandi glanced at him.

Lin Yiqiu scratched his head with a smile and continued: "Your Majesty doesn't know, this Zhou Han has actually already taken Caidie Girl as his concubine. ”

"Although this matter is extremely secret, under the investigation of Jinyiwei, everything has come to the fore."

"Not only that, but this week, Zhou Han will also send a lot of silver to this colorful butterfly girl every month for her expenses! Last month alone, 5,000 taels have been sent! ”

As soon as the words fell, Emperor Qian's expression was suddenly a little shocked!

"What do you say? Five thousand taels a month? ”

"Uh... To be precise, at least five thousand taels, because two months before were even given eight thousand taels and ten thousand taels! ”

Lin Yiqiu continued to respond truthfully.

Emperor Qian's face at this time was already extremely wrong, angry, confused, cold, all intertwined.

After a while, she spoke coldly.

"The annual salary of the Minister of Rites is six hundred and eighty taels, so much silver, it can only be saved in decades!"

"Where did Zhou Han get so much silver this time? Where did he get it from? ”

This kind of huge amount of money is impossible to have by normal means, and for Emperor Qian, it can be directly concluded that it must be corruption!

And Lin Yiqiu's answer also confirmed her conjecture.

"Your Majesty, the various ceremonies of the Ministry of Rites every year, as well as the ministers' own private property, can earn a lot of silver.

"It's normal for private property to be owned, but the kickbacks they get from the treasury are even more numerous, and that's the key!"

"Good! That's great! The ministers of my Ministry of Rites are really promising, and they will all get money from the treasury! ”

Emperor Qiandi clenched his fists.

"How did you get it, did you find out about it?"

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister also found out, in short, it's actually just one word, borrow!"

Lin Yiqiu held up a finger.

"Borrow?"

Emperor Qiandi didn't understand.

Lin Yiqiu continued: "In various names, or individuals, or entire departments, borrow money from the treasury! ”

"When the household department encounters one or two, they can still refuse, but when they meet a group of people, they can't do anything, so they can only borrow money with IOUs."

"In the end, even the officials of the household department themselves will borrow money from the treasury, and this kind of thing has almost become a certain trend in our country."

This matter was also known because of Jinyiwei's investigation.

And Lin Yiqiu couldn't help but be surprised when he first heard about it.

These guys, for the sake of money, can really come up with any way.

Borrowing silver, it's not not not repaying, it's not embezzlement or robbery, it's compliant, reasonable and legal!

But Emperor Qian's face was as deep as ink at this moment.

In fact, she had also heard of ministers borrowing money from the treasury, but in her opinion, it should be just a small amount of money, and no one would dare to borrow a large amount of silver.

But hearing Lin Yiqiu say this, she suddenly realized what a big loophole she had overlooked before!

In this court, I am afraid that there are countless moths who are like Zhou Han, fishing for silver from the treasury and going back!

"Go on! Read on! ”

Gritting his teeth, Emperor Qian's flowery face was already extremely cold.

Lin Yiqiu went on to say: "Zhou Han's net worth is therefore very generous, and it can be said that he has a million taels!" ”

"And then, Miss Caidie took this opportunity to ask Zhou Han to do her a favor!"

"Your Majesty, Qian Yuanli, the candidate who cheated this time, is the cousin of Miss Caidie, and I think that even if you don't say it, you should know what you are helping."

The words fell, and there was a silence.

Emperor Qian's face flickered, and then he quickly spoke: "Will you try to cheat?" Is it? ”

"That's right, Your Majesty, Miss Caidie asked Zhou Han to help her cousin cheat in the exam.

"But although Zhou Han is a waiter in the Ministry of Rites, he is not the person in charge of the questions, and he can't get in touch with the initial exam papers, so he thought of Shen Meng!"

Shen Meng was the waiter of the Ministry of Rites who hanged himself before, and the initial investigation was carried out from him.

"Why did Shen Meng agree? Is it promised money or sex? ”

Emperor Qian asked coldly.

Lin Yiqiu bent down and replied: "Yes, Shen Meng usually likes to go to Xiangyue Tower, and because of this, Zhou Han will target him!" ”

"Before, the minister was in the backyard of Xiangyue Building, and found a somewhat abandoned yard, but someone lived there, which is very strange, and even the old bustard doesn't know what the situation is."

"Now it seems that it is the residence that Qian Yuanli secretly arranged for him after his cousin Caidie entered Beijing, and Shen Meng also completed many meetings with Qian Yuanli there!"

Speaking of this, Lin Yiqiu paused for a long time and sorted out his thoughts.

Then he explained the secret letter.

"As for the secret letter, it was written by Qian Yuanli when he first contacted Shen Meng, and it was also handed over to Shen Meng by Zhou Han as an intermediary!"

"At this point, all this has formed a closed loop, and Zhou Han intends to help his cousin cheat in the exam for the sake of the Qinglou woman he likes."

"And Shen Meng, as the chief examiner or the examiner, has become the target of Zhou Han's wooing, and through money and sex, Shen Meng will soon be pulled into the water!"
