Zhu Chen calmed down the anger in his heart, looked at Jiang Ji with a gloating face, and said:

"Jiang Yuanwailang, I suddenly thought of something, I am so puzzled, I wonder if Yuanwailang can solve my confusion?"

Jiang Ji, who was still gloating, was still waiting for Zhu Chen to go berserk and make excessive moves in the main hall.

In this way, he could take this opportunity to suppress Zhu Chen fiercely.

Gain a good reputation for yourself and facilitate your future career development.

When he saw that Zhu Chen, who was already on the verge of going berserk, suddenly calmed down and did not make excessive moves.

Jiang Ji was also unwilling:

"It's a pity that I didn't completely anger this bastard, otherwise, I would have been able to show my face in front of many ministers today."

Jiang Ji didn't think much about it when he saw Zhu Chen asking, he smiled disappreciatively, and said:

"Deputy Envoy Zhu, if you have anything to ask, why hide it?"

A sneer crossed the corner of Zhu Chen's mouth without a trace:

"Since Jiang Yuanwailang said so, then I will be relieved, but I have to make it clear in advance, I am afraid that this matter I asked will make Yuanwailang more dissatisfied.

If the outsider is unwilling to answer, I will not force it, it is difficult for the strongman. ”

Looking at Zhu Chen's smiling expression, Jiang Ji had a bad premonition.

"Looking at Zhu Chen's demeanor, he must not have any good intentions, I am in his way!"

Qin Zheng, who was sitting on the dragon chair, was also interested in what Zhu Chen wanted to ask at this time.

Although it is not clear what Zhu Chen wants to ask Jiang Ji about, it is definitely not a good thing.

Zhu Chen and Jiang Ji belonged to different political factions.

The political struggle is brutal.

As long as you can defeat your opponent, you will never leave any mercy and will be ruthless.

Qin Zheng would love to see this.

Most of the people in the Ministry of Industry are members of the Ning Party.

The opportunity to suppress them must not be missed.

He opened his mouth and said to Jiang Ji:

"Jiang Aiqing, I heard that you are conscientious and self-denying when you handle government affairs on weekdays, and there must be no mistakes, since Zhu Aiqing has something to ask you,

Your honest answer is that there is no need to worry, I and all the servants in the palace are optimistic about you. ”

said.

Qin Zheng smiled and asked the ministers below:

"What do you think, fellow ministers?"

Seeing Qin Zheng ask.

Some ministers nodded in agreement:

"Your Majesty is very true."

"Jiang Yuanwailang's ability is good, there shouldn't be any problems."

"That's right, I'm optimistic about Jiang Yuanwailang."

Qin Zheng's words were clearly helping Jiang Ji.

But some of the clever ministers below can hear it.

This is roasting Jiang Ji on the fire.

If Zhu Chen's question is very tricky and Jiang Ji can't answer it, then the fun will be great.

Ning Heng, who was standing in the first place, frowned when he heard Qin Zheng's words, and had a premonition that something was wrong:

"This move of the faint king is really ruthless, this is preparing to take the people of the Ministry of Industry."

And Yuan De, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, instinctively felt a strong crisis:

"If I'm not mistaken, most of the things Zhu Chen asked are related to Jiangnan Palace, if this is the case, then it will be a big trouble."

Thinking of this, Yuan De subconsciously glanced at Ning Heng in front of him:

"I don't know if Ning Xiang realized this, the matter of Jiangnan Xinggong was arranged by him, he should have a solution."

Compared to the worries of Ning Heng and Yuan De.

Zhu Chen was overjoyed:

"Your Majesty is obviously helping Jiang Ji, but in fact, he wants me to pull out the pigtails of the Ministry of Works, hey, this is a good opportunity."

Although Zhu Chen was overjoyed.

But his expression was very calm, and he immediately threw his hand to Qin Zhengdao:

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, the matter asked by the minister is a matter within the position of Jiang Yuanwailang, and he will definitely not ask about anything unrelated to it."

Although Jiang Ji has realized that he is in trouble.

But the Son of Heaven and all the ministers in the palace watched, and he didn't dare to play any tricks.

I had to bow to Qin Zheng and say:

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, as long as it is a matter within the minister's responsibility, the minister will know everything and dare not hide anything."

Qin Zheng looked at Jiang Ji's slightly nervous expression, smiled faintly at the corner of his mouth, and instructed Zhu Chen:

"Zhu Aiqing, since Jiang Aiqing has said so, then you can ask, don't delay time."

Zhu Chen bowed and said:

"The minister commands."

Then, Zhu Chen looked at Jiang Ji, who looked a little nervous, and asked him:

"Jiang Yuanwailang, since your Ministry of Industry took over the construction of the Jiangnan Palace half a year ago, so far, you have spent nearly one million taels of silver from the Third Division.

But so far, your Ministry of Industry has not submitted a clear list of silver taels to the Third Division, and according to the information learned by the Third Division, the nearly one million taels of silver have been spent.

I want to ask Jiang Yuanwailang, where did you spend all the nearly one million taels of silver? ”

Swish!

As soon as I heard Zhu Chen ask about it.

Jiang Ji's heart instantly rose to his throat.

And not only him.

A minister of the Ministry of Industry, including Yuan De, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, who is involved in this matter.

and Prime Minister Ning Heng and other ministers related to this matter changed their expressions, and their hearts instantly became nervous.

Of course, they knew where the money went.

But this matter cannot be said, let alone put on the table.

Especially in front of the Son of Heaven and so many courtiers, it can't be mentioned.

Ning Heng and the others scolded Zhu Chen, a bastard, for daring to put this matter on the table.

If only eyes could kill.

Zhu Chen was afraid that he had been killed several times by some ministers.

Zhu Chen also noticed the unkind gazes around him, but he was calm.

Looking at Jiang Ji, who was pale and frightened beside him, he asked coldly:

"Jiang Yuanwailang, you just said in front of Your Majesty that as long as it is your own business, you know everything and dare not hide it, these are all your own affairs.

Now you can tell Your Majesty and the ministers of the palace, where has the money gone? ”

Jiang Ji didn't know exactly where the money would go.

But I also know the doorway here.

But he didn't dare to really say it.

If he really said it in public, his fate would be miserable.

"I, I ......"

Jiang Ji's words were panicked, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

Yuan De, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, who was standing in front, glanced back at Jiang Ji, and suddenly his eyes froze, realizing that he couldn't continue to let Zhu Chen entangle this matter.

If not, the consequences are unimaginable!

He hurriedly stood up and bowed down to report to Qin Zheng:

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your ......Minister"

However.

He wasn't done yet.

Qin Zheng, who had already realized that this matter must have something else hidden.

I thought in my heart that I must take this opportunity to dig out the reason for this matter, so that I can cut a few people to weaken the strength of the Ning Party.

Therefore.

Qin Zheng immediately stopped Yuan De from continuing:

"Yuan Aiqing, you wait first, I will ask you about this matter, and there is a chance for you to speak."

Immediately, his eyes were sharp, and he asked Jiang Ji in a commanding tone:

"Jiang Aiqing, quickly answer Zhu Aiqing's question, where is this million taels of silver spent, you answer truthfully, you must not hide it, if you can't answer it, come out,

I can't spare you! ”
