Chapter 354: Dead Eunuchs Must Not Stay!
Lin Yiqiu and Cang Hong glanced at each other, and then, directly from uncovering another tile, their bodies jumped down instantly!
However, the two did not follow up directly, but curled up in the corner behind the cabinet, hidden in the dark.
A moment later, Song Kuan had already come out of the small door, still holding an account book in his hand!
Although he was not the only one in the house at this time, he naturally couldn't find it.
Holding a brush and opening the account book, he kept calculating.
Sometimes he buried his head in thought, sometimes he sighed.
And the brush in his hand is also non-stop, writing back and forth on the fold.
In this way, after about half an hour, Lin Yiqiu and Canghong were as quiet as stones, watching like this.
And Song Kuan finally put down the brush and stretched his waist.
"It's finally over, this thing is really hard to calculate, it's exhausting!"
Closing the fold, Song Kuan picked up the account book and flipped it a few more times.
And his face gradually became extremely deep.
A sigh was heard.
"He Weixin, He Weixin, you still owe the treasury five million taels of silver and haven't paid it back, and you died like this!"
"And you officials of the Ministry of Rites, you have borrowed a lot of money, and now you don't have to pay it back when you die, but how should this treasury be!"
Song Kuan showed an embarrassed look, and it could be seen that he was quite dissatisfied with the members of the Ministry of Rites, especially He Weixin!
After all, he is the head of the household department, and he is in charge of the financial power of the treasury, so he knows what this silver means to the Qianguo!
And he knows better what He Weixin and others are borrowing so much money for!
It is precisely because of this that he dislikes these ministers in the DPRK very much!
One by one, they seem to be sanctimonious, and they say that they are serving the Qianguo, but in fact, they are all looking for the Qianguo treasury to reimburse their expenses!
Among them, He Weixin and other members of the Ministry of Rites, Huo Yongzhi of the Criminal Department, and Prime Minister Li Yan are particularly prominent!
But Song Kuan has no other way, although he is a household secretary, but other colleagues ask him to borrow, and he can't help but borrow it!
Moreover, they all had IOUs, and there were various reasons in the name of the imperial court.
If he doesn't borrow it, he will be against the imperial court, and then against other ministers!
In this way, Song Kuan really has no other choice!
Fortunately, Emperor Qiandi usually doesn't ask about the treasury, unless it is a disaster relief, it will be screened once, otherwise this hole will be completely torn up a long time ago!
Shaking his head and sighing, Song Kuan stuffed all those IOUs into the account book, and then picked up the account book and walked towards the hut inside!
After a while, he left the hut and felt inside the cabinet with his previous movements!
Bang!
The door to the hut closed instantly, and the cabinet had been removed.
Song Kuan extinguished the lamp and stepped out of the hall.
Two guards at the door escorted him all the way out.
At this time, Lin Yiqiu and Canghong, who had been hiding in the shadows, slowly walked out.
"It seems that what we want, he hides quite deeply."
The corners of Lin Yiqiu's mouth were joking.
Cang Hong said in a low voice: "After all, it is the account book of the household department, which is highly confidential, and if it is leaked out, it will easily have a huge impact on the Qianguo!" ”
"This time, it is also thanks to His Majesty's consent, otherwise if you do this privately, I am afraid that it will be the crime of killing your head again!"
"Hehe, kill the head? I, Lin Yiqiu, have lived until now, and I have never been afraid of killing my head, and I have never seen anyone kill me! ”
The corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and Lin Yiqiu bent down to touch the inside of the cabinet according to Song Kuan's action just now.
After a while, I touched something that looked like a handle.
He subconsciously pressed down!
Bang!
The cabinet moved to the side, and the door to the hut reopened.
Lin Yiqiu and Canghong jumped straight in!
Inside the cottage, there are only some very simple furnishings.
Compared to those corrupt officials, this kind of secret hut is often used to hide property.
Song Kuan's hut is basically a top-secret official document, which is extremely simple in comparison!
"It seems that this Lord Song, although he is a household scholar, does not seem to be greedy for money."
Lin Yiqiu touched his chin and said.
Cang Hong nodded.
"This is also the reason why His Majesty will feel relieved that he is the head of the household, although he seems honest and honest, at least he will not be in the same stream as other ministers."
"It's rare, there are still such good officials in my country."
Lin Yiqiu chuckled in response, and then opened the drawer of the table in front of him.
And the indigo-covered account book lay quietly inside.
Lin Yiqiu picked it up, flipped it for a while, found all the IOUs inside, and printed them all!
Cang Hong, on the other hand, left the house and guarded in the front hall.
After about a stick of incense, Lin Yiqiu had already completed the rubbing and closed the drawer.
Taking advantage of the night, he and Cang Hong jumped out directly along the roof and quickly left Song Kuan's mansion.
It's all quiet, no one notices!
And these things printed in his hands will be the best weapon against those courtiers!
In the early morning of the second day, inside the palace and outside the court.
Although the door of the temple had not yet opened, a group of ministers had already gathered outside.
Not long after, Prime Minister Li Yan had also gone up the steps, and a group of ministers immediately saw him and hurriedly surrounded him.
"Prime Minister, we have to twist into a rope for today's court meeting! Make sure your majesty decides! ”
He Tianxiu, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, arched his hand.
And his words naturally aroused a burst of approval from the other courtiers around him.
Li Yan didn't sleep well last night, firstly, he was still thinking about Emperor Qian's affairs, and secondly, he was angry with Guo Chenghong, the leader of the Imperial Division, so he hated Lin Yiqiu even more in his heart!
At this time, he also nodded intently.
"That's a must! This dead eunuch must not stay! ”
"He dares to kill so many people in the Ministry of Rites in front of His Majesty, and if he kills us one day, we will be in danger!"
"The only supermission today is to put this dead eunuch to death!"
Clenching his fists, Li Yan gritted his teeth and said fiercely.
But after a few moments, someone was worried about speaking out.
"But yesterday evening, the emperor's appearance, if we talk too violently, will we..."
When the words fell, everyone suddenly fell silent.
That's right, if it's the same as yesterday evening, Your Majesty is stimulated again, swinging his sword and slashing people! Then they'll be in vain!
But Li Yan didn't care.
"Humph! Even so, His Majesty cannot be allowed to delay any longer! ”
"If Your Majesty wants to swing a sword and cut someone again, then I will be the first to stick my head up, and if you want to cut it, you will cut me first!"
In a word, it was righteous and awe-inspiring!
Seeing that he was so strong as the prime minister, everyone naturally had nothing else to worry about in their hearts!
"Don't worry, Prime Minister, if you really want that, I'll accompany you!"
"That's right! No matter what your Majesty is today! Dead eunuchs must not stay! ”
