The next day.

Jin Yi Wei Qianhu Lu Zhong stepped into the government office with one foot, and when he saw this scene, he suddenly dropped his jaw, looked around, and found that there was no one, so he stepped forward and picked up a silver ingot to weigh it.

"It's so heavy, it's three big boxes, I'm afraid there are thousands of taels to say the least, right?"

As soon as he finished saying this, a slightly tired voice came from above, saying, "Lu Qianhu knows these things very well, these are all sent by those landlords to support the imperial court for disaster relief."

"Young! You're here, old man!"

Lu Zhong was startled, just now his attention may have been all on the white silver in front of him, and he didn't even notice that there was a big living person sitting in front of the table.

"Don't blame Lu Qianhu, even when the official saw these last night, he was also distracted for a while, it's been more than 20 years, how can he have seen so many silver taels."

The merchant had dark circles under his eyes, as if he hadn't slept all night, and said, "Lu Qianhu will accept these silver, and treat it as the silver money for disaster relief from the imperial court."

Lu Zhong rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Elder Ge said that he laughed, those gentlemen and gentlemen, they can't wait to wipe out the people's fat and people's ointment, how can they be so kind?"

"Aren't you afraid that if you accept this silver, will someone gossip in the court?"

Shang said: "Shang Mou is not afraid of shadows, since he is playing to His Majesty, he is not afraid of being impeached by female officials, Your Majesty has the legacy of Taizong, and he will definitely not believe slander!"

"Lu Qianhu, all the silver is here, this time the imperial court in Henan to resume the law of folding acres, in order to take the silver money of unknown origin of these people, the official has not taken a penny!"

Lu Zhong hurriedly surrendered his hand: "There are always people who say that the lord was promoted to the cabinet by virtue of his reputation as a protégé of the cabinet assistant, and the lower officials have always disagreed."

"Now it seems that there are really many people who are popular."

Shang Shi sneered, and at this time, someone ran in from outside the door and said loudly, "Two adults, the chief official of King Zhao's Mansion sent someone to say that he had something to see."

Shang Shi nodded at him, and then said to the side: "Lu Qianhu, you said, this Zhao Wangfu has nothing to do with us, why did you send someone here this time?"

Lu Zhong pondered for a moment and said, "I think it's also for the court to intercede for the sake of the imperial court's method of folding acres, and most of them want to be lobbyists for those gentlemen!"

"Humph!"

Shang Chen patted and said, "First they bribed and gave gifts, and now they are asking the palace officials to sing for us, and this official wants to see what other means these people have!"

"Lu Qianhu, Your Majesty also said, supervising the finances, this is your business, now I have handed over all these silver taels to you, how to use them, one by one, you have to remember them all."

Lu Zhong immediately said: "Don't worry, if Your Majesty asks, there is a subordinate official to prove it for the Pavilion Elder, and the place of each ingot in these three boxes will be clearly marked."

After saying this, he watched Shang Zhen get up and leave, shook his head and said, "What a strange pavilion elder, in this world, is there anyone who doesn't want silver?"

At this time, a hundred households on the side stepped forward, their eyes were fixed on these white flowers, and asked, "Lord Qianhu, what should we do with these silver taels?"

Lu Zhong thought for a while, kicked the box on the side, and said, "Distribute these to the brothers, tell the brothers, as long as you follow me to work hard, you will eat fragrant and spicy food in the future."

….

"The remaining two boxes are said to be the silver money from the imperial court for disaster relief, so let Director Zhao paste the note of the household department, stamp the seal of the household department, and send it to Lord Xu."

"Lord Xu?" Baihu was a little surprised, and said, "Lord Qianhu, that Xu Youzhen used to be called Xu Hui, and the brothers have a lot of records of him taking bribes in Jiangnan."

"Isn't it to give him this money to send sheep into the mouth of the tiger?"

Lu Zhong glared at the hundred households and said, "Keep all his evidence, Your Majesty doesn't mean it, so we don't know."

[In other words, it is the best way to read aloud and listen to books at present, @

After arranging these silver taels, the hundred households had just left, and another brocade guard walked in quickly and said, "Lord Qianhu, I just got a secret report from Zhangde Mansion."

"Say." Lu Zhong was a little impatient.

The brocade guard said: "This silver should have been sent here by the Zhangde Luo clan, who is the big landlord of the Zhangde Mansion second only to the Zhao Wangfu, but after a few days of secret investigation, he found that the acres of land in the name of the Luo clan in the Zhangde Mansion are only more than 1,300 acres."

Lu Zhong felt that something was wrong, and frowned, "How is this possible? Look at these three big boxes of silver, a bribe of thousands of taels in front of you! This is no ordinary handiwork..."

The brocade guard also said: "I also feel that something is wrong, but I really can't find anything else, I have been secretly visiting Zhangde Mansion for a few days, and the larger granges have been to ask."

"Now Zhangde Mansion is dominated by more than ten landlords such as Luo, Liu, and Qian, among which Luo's wealth is the richest, but there are not many acres of land under their names."

"It seems that we don't know what other methods these people have!" Lu Zhong sat down, touched his chin with his hand, and thought:

"What the hell is it? You tell the brothers, all of them will be broken up for me, scattered to the grassroots level, the more grassroots the better, go to check, go and check carefully!"

"I don't believe it yet, they won't show any clues!"

Watching Jin Yiwei leave, Lu Zhong felt a little interesting.

Indeed, there is no land in the name, what do you take to fold the mu?

He gently stroked the gorgeous scabbard of the Embroidered Spring Knife and muttered to himself, "Zhangde Luo, you are the smartest, aren't you? Okay, Lao Tzu, this brocade guard, let's take you, the smartest one, first!"

......

When Shang Chen came to the court, he was also taken aback when he saw that the person who came was Gao Liang, the governor of the Zhao Palace, and said, "Why is the high hall official here in person?"

Gao Liang didn't dare to say anything, so he got up and arched his hand: "The elder of the pavilion calls the lower official like this, the lower official is really ashamed to be, this time he came to bother, mainly for the matter of breaking the mu law."

"I heard that the elder of the pavilion wants to take my Zhao Wangfu as the main one in Zhangde Mansion and fold the acres first, but is there such a thing?"

Shang was stunned for a moment and asked, "Why do you say this?"

Gao Liang saw Shang Chen's unaware expression, he was a little speechless in his heart, and his tone was a little indifferent, and he said, "There is no need for the elder to hide it, my palace has already received the news."

"Folding acres is a decree of the imperial court, if Ge Lao Ming says it, my Zhao Wangfu will not ignore it."

Shang Zhen smiled and said: "It's not a concealment, this official really didn't have a decree to fold acres in Zhangde Mansion, and now the folding of acres in Kaifeng Mansion has just begun, how can you have any spare strength?"

"Is that really the case...?" The chief officer Gao Liang was a little puzzled.

Shang Shi also sensed that something was wrong, and immediately said, "Where did the high court official get the news, this person vainly tried to drive a wedge between the imperial court and the Zhao Palace, and his heart can be punished!"

"Please tell me the truth!"

Gao Liang hesitated again and again, but when he saw Shang Chen's eager expression, he still said, "This matter is a local rumor in Zhangde Mansion, and it seems that it is just crazy talk."

"This official can't see it, there is no crazy talk in the world at all, there is such news among the people, it must be deliberately done by some people!" Shang Chen clapped his head and said:

"Please go back to Ming Zhao Wangye, this time the method of folding acres, if there is no edict from Your Majesty, I will not touch the one acre of land in Wangzhuang, the palace of the princes of Henan."

"I am honest and honest, and since I dare to say this in this court, I will be able to hold it!"

Zhu Di was reborn in Tumu Fort.
