In the study room of the Huaiwang Mansion.

"What do you say? Liang Kun, the head of the household department, was arrested for embezzlement and taxation of the two state capitals? ”

King Huai looked at the attendant who was passing the word with an expression of disbelief.

The attendant hurriedly said: "Back to the prince's words, it has spread outside now, and I heard that Liang Shilang committed suicide!" ”

"Kill yourself!"

The teacup in King Huai's hand fell to the ground, and the attendant who passed the message saw King Huai so out of shape, and stood a little at a loss for what to do.

After a long time, King Huai slowly spoke: "I know, you go out first." ”

"Yes!"

As if he had been pardoned, the attendant immediately withdrew, and then closed the door of the study.

In the study, King Huai's hands trembled uncontrollably.

Gu Jingwubo's face, which had always been unwavering, was also entangled at the moment, revealing a hidden look of horror.

Zhao Wangfu.

King Zhao was sitting in the hall, bowing his head in contemplation.

A figure hurriedly walked in from the outside, and before he could get closer, he said loudly: "The prince is not good! ”

The man ran forward and said anxiously: "The prince has news again, saying that it is the assassin history of Liang Kun and Liang and the two state capitals of Liang and Chao, as well as local officials of all sizes, who are greedy for more than 3 million taels of silver in the treasury. ”

King Zhao's body trembled and he almost fell.

Liang Kun is involved in millions of taels of tax silver, if it is found out that he is involved with the prince......

King Zhao didn't dare to think about it, his face turned pale in an instant, and there was no blood.

The man gasped for breath and said, "I heard that Liang Kun committed suicide by taking poison before he left the house!" ”

"Whew!"

King Zhao took a long breath and scolded angrily: "Next time you speak, let's talk together!" Don't get out of the way here, get out of here! ”

Why did King Zhao, who had always been very amiable, suddenly get angry, the man felt a little inexplicable, he didn't dare to stay and hurriedly ran out.

King Zhao looked at the man's back, stunned in place, and didn't say anything for a long time.

The embezzlement of the treasury tax and silver by the household servant was the first major corruption case since the founding of the Daqian Dynasty.

The wide range of cases involved has caused some turmoil in the court.

Because of the big and small officials in the DPRK and China, who dares to say that their butts are clean, and who can withstand a thorough investigation?

Jin Ge has to walk six parts.

The remaining Shangshu and squires of the ministry were terrified one by one, and they were really a little afraid that Jin Ge would come to their ministry......

Inside the palace to nourish the heart.

Qi Mao has been in a terrible mood for the past two days because of Liang Kun's matter.

The eunuchs and palace maids who served him didn't dare to come out, and they didn't dare to make the slightest noise when they walked.

At this time, the six heads of the hall also held their breath and did not dare to say a word.

Hubu Shangshu Qian just stepped forward cautiously and said softly: "Your Majesty, now the vacancy in the position of the left waiter of the Hubu is ......"

Qi Mao waved his hand and said angrily: "If it's empty, it's empty!" It's better than getting something greedy for ink and tax money. ”

Qian Gang stopped talking and retreated.

After Qi Mao lowered his head and pondered for a long time, he looked at the six Shangshu and said: "Jin Ge has been in the household department for almost a month, and now that there is such a thing, it is not easy for him to stay in the household department, so let him go to other ministries!" You discuss it, who and where is it appropriate for him to go tomorrow? ”

When the six Shangshu below heard this, except for the Hubu Shangshu Qian Gang's expressionless face, the other five people all frowned.

Song Nian, the secretary of the Criminal Department, bowed his head and lowered his hands without saying a word.

Qi Meng, the secretary of the ministry, wanted to speak and stopped.

The king of the Ministry of Industry looked directly at his toes without his eyes and did not say a word.

Yang Fu, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, was like an old monk who had settled down, motionless.

Ma Lian, the secretary of the military department, looked around left and right, paid attention to his heart, and took the lead to come out, saying: "Jin Xianzi is a great talent, this official loves it very much, why don't you let him come to our military department!" ”

Except for Yang Fu, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, who was motionless, the eyelids of the other three jumped suddenly, and they suddenly remembered something, and they all took a step......

Qi Mao saw that Ma Lian took the initiative to ask for help, and saw Qi Meng, Song Nian, and Wang Bujing eager to try, and his mood improved a lot.

Looking at Yang Fu, who was like an old monk, he suddenly became a little unhappy, and said, "Let Jin Ge go to the Ministry of Rites tomorrow!" ”

Yang Fu, who had already settled down, heard Qi Mao's words, his heart trembled, he opened his eyes suddenly, looked left and right, was stunned, and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty ......"

Qi Mao's face immediately became gloomy, stared at him, and asked, "What, is there anything wrong with Yang Aiqing?" ”

Yang Fu gritted his teeth and said, "No, no." ”

Qi Mao nodded with satisfaction and said, "Since this is the case, then it will be arranged like this." ”

Everyone withdrew from the imperial study, and Ma Lian, the secretary of the military department, said to Yang Fu with a smile: "Jin Ge Dacai, now your Ministry of Rites has obtained a treasure." ”

Yang Fu glared at Ma Lian with a dark face.

Ma Lian smiled: "How do I think Lord Yang is not very happy!" Haha......"

"Hmph, don't be too complacent!" Yang Fu snorted coldly and said: "Your military department can't escape, our Ministry of Rites doesn't have anything to do, but your military department is different, Lord Ma is still worried about your military department......

When he finished speaking, he waved the sleeves of his robe and turned to leave.

The other Shangshu glanced at each other and snickered......

With this trouble, they can have a few more months of leisure......

Jin Ge was in the Protector's Mansion, looked at Qi Mao's edict and sighed.

Originally, I wanted to rest for a few more days, but I didn't expect Qi Mao to let him go to the Ministry of Rites tomorrow.

Didn't you say that you would stay in a government office for two months?

I haven't been in the household department for a month, so I was asked to go to the Ministry of Rites, which is a bit unreasonable!

Could it be that the head of the household department Shangshu Qian Gang said something to His Majesty?

Qian Gang was in such a hurry to let me leave the household, was I so unwelcome?

It's rumored that I'm a plague god outside, but it seems to be true!

Ministry of Rites.

Yang Fu returned to the Ministry of Rites and returned directly to the duty room.

At this moment, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites and the fourth division are waiting for Yang Fu to return.

Seeing that Yang Fu's face was very ugly, his face showed surprise.

Fei Li, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, said: "My lord, is Jin Ge going to come to our Ministry of Rites next?" ”

Yang Fu didn't speak, just nodded.

"Lord Shangshu, Jin Ge is very ruthless and cunning, Lord Yang Wan will only go to Guozijian because of his plot......"

"Yes! Jin Ge is a scheming person, he came to our Ministry of Rites, everyone should be more careful......"

"Everyone's good days are over!"

"It's unreasonable! Such a person can also walk six steps! ”

Yang Fu looked at Sibu Langzhong, frowned and said, "Our Ministry of Rites is the Qingshui Yamen, let him make trouble if he wants to!" ”

After thinking about it, Shibu Langzhong quieted down.

The Ministry of Rites does not care about the world's money and food, nor does it care about the appointment and dismissal of officials in the world, let alone major cases, construction, and military leadership.

is only responsible for the etiquette, sacrifice, and tribute, and the Qingshui Yamen, not to mention, the entire Ministry of Rites is an iron bucket, an outsider, and he is still a gentleman, what kind of storm can be turned over here?
