Chapter 271: Huang Liji's Perception
The housekeeper thought for a while, nodded and said, "Back to my lord, the gifts sent by the Shaanxi Political Envoy in the past six months have been much more than before, and many of them are valuable treasures. ”
"It can be seen that the officials over there are also quite filial, all thanks to your good training, master!"
The butler thought he was clever, but he didn't expect the butler's words to slap the horse's leg on the horse's leg.
Huang Liji turned his face and reprimanded loudly: "What kind of nonsense are you talking about, the officials on the side of the Shaanxi Political Envoy Department are not doing things effectively, even though the chaos is getting more and more serious." ”
"I am about to ask Your Majesty to punish their sins, how can I be in the same league with them."
"No matter how much they try to please me, if things are not done well, they are not done well, and no amount of treasures can hide their incompetence."
When the butler heard this, he felt a little incredulous, and his two eyes widened as big as brass bells.
He even wanted to reach out and find out if his master was crazy or infected with some kind of cold.
It's not like what their old man said, they didn't say that before.
Huang Liji sighed, he looked at the housekeeper's expression, and he really felt a little powerless.
Naturally, he had no way to make the housekeeper understand the subtleties in this, so he just left a sentence coldly, "This is not the place to talk, let's go back to the house first." ”
After that, Huang Liji got into the carriage, and although the housekeeper felt a little inexplicable, he could only quickly beckon the coachman to rush to the house. ”
When Huang Liji returned home, he sat in the main hall and drank tea, and asked the housekeeper to hurry up to count the value of the silver taels and treasures sent by the officials of the Shaanxi Political Envoy Department.
The housekeeper went down for about half an hour, and finally when Huang Liji was no longer a little impatient, the housekeeper finally ran back.
He was sweating profusely and explained to Huang Liji, "Master, this situation has been cleared, and the things sent by the Shaanxi Political Envoy Department are almost more than 83,000 taels, which can be said to be a big deal." ”
Huang Liji chuckled in his heart, knowing that this situation was definitely going to be bad.
More than 83,000 taels of silver, if you say less, it must be a lot, and if you say more, it is a lot.
After all, he is the most powerful minister in the court today, and if the Shaanxi political envoy asks him for something and sends him so much silver, it is okay to say.
The problem is that the Shaanxi political envoy has nothing to ask him for, and he has already sent him so many silver taels.
This is very intriguing.
The Shaanxi political envoy gave him more than 83,000 taels of silver given to him by Huang Liji, so did he give it to other ministers?
It must have been delivered.
In this way, at least the silver taels sent by the officials of the Shaanxi Provincial Political Envoy Department are at least two or three hundred thousand taels, or even three or four hundred thousand.
Huang Liji is terrible to think about, where can the officials of the Shaanxi Political Envoy Department get so many silver taels?
There is still a drought and bandits in Shaanxi!
He stood up, but his body shook a little, and he fell back into his chair, sweating profusely in a quarter of an hour, as if he had just crawled out of the water.
The housekeeper had also sensed that something was wrong, and hurried up to Huang Liji and said, "Master, these silver taels and small ones have all been told to you before. ”
That's right, this housekeeper told Huang Liji, but Huang Liji only knew that the Shaanxi political envoy sent him a filial piety and some treasures.
He originally thought that these were just ordinary Bing Jing Tan Jing, but he didn't expect that the number of them would be so amazing.
This housekeeper can also be regarded as Huang Liji's confidant, Huang Liji thought about it and still didn't blame the other party carefully.
The housekeeper also knew that he had done a stupid thing, and he didn't explain the amount and difference to Huang Liji in time.
He held back for a long time before he hesitated and said: "Most of the old man's officials in the court will accept filial piety from some places, which is not a big deal. ”
"You are Your Majesty's confidant, even if Your Majesty knows about this, I won't blame you too much, why is the master so nervous at this time?"
Huang Liji couldn't hold back any longer, the idiot in front of him was definitely one of the culprits who caused him to fall into the pit.
"You idiot, even if it is a filial piety sent by the locality, is it possible that you have paid so much filial piety? If you buy ice and charcoal, you have to honor you for seventy or eighty thousand taels of silver? That's enough money to build an ice cellar. ”
"Those fools in the west, how many stupid things they have done over the years, they still think Your Majesty doesn't know."
"Even His Majesty allocated so much salt grain, allocated so much grain, and even sent them a large number of sweet potato seeds, as a result, in the past year or so, the bandits in the west have become more and more suppressed."
"Are your Jinyiwei and those people in Dongchang eating dry rice? I'm afraid that I have already made it clear what the people in Shaanxi Province had done. ”
"Now that Your Majesty is planning to do it, Xu Xianchun's 30,000 guards and Wei Zhongxian's old dog have all gone to the west, do you think they really went to the west to help the victims?"
"Your Majesty is going to do it to that group of fools in the west this time, Your Majesty's temperament I understand, once you do it, it will be a means to cut the grass and eradicate the roots."
"We have received so many benefits from him, how can we explain it clearly afterwards? Have you ever thought about what will happen to us once we get involved? ”
When the housekeeper listened to what Huang Liji said, his heart became more and more empty, and he was completely anxious at this time.
"Master, since this silver can't be collected, then we either send someone to the political envoy of Shaanxi, and those officials will send it back, otherwise it will be a disaster to stay here!"
Huang Liji was really moved when he heard this, but soon he shook his head again and said: "I'm afraid that this silver can't be sent back, and now the Shaanxi Political Envoy is in chaos, and I don't know how many people will be chaotic on the road." ”
"This silver is sent over, if there are too few guards sent, it will be a meat bun to beat the dog, and it will be robbed by the rebels halfway."
"If there are too many guards, then the dissatisfied world knows that the old man is sending things to the officials of the Shaanxi Political Envoy Department, which is really a stupid pig."
"There is an even more difficult thing, that is, we send this silver back to the officials of the Shaanxi Political Envoy Department, then they will definitely notice and suspect that something is going on in the imperial court."
"Now that Your Majesty's army has been sent to the west, it will definitely be done to them, if I sabotage Your Majesty's plan because of this matter, I am afraid that the crime will not be much lighter than the old man's bribery."
"Brother Shen!"
"Hmm!"
Shen Changqing walked on the road, and when he met someone he knew well, he would say hello to each other or nod his head.
But it doesn't matter who it is.
There was no superfluous expression on everyone's face, as if they were very indifferent to everything.
on this.
Shen Changqing is used to it.
Because this is the Demon Suppression Division, it is an institution that maintains the stability of Great Qin, and its main responsibility is to kill demons and monsters, and of course there are some other side jobs.
Arguably.
In the Demon Suppression Division, everyone has a lot of blood on their hands.
When a person is accustomed to seeing life and death, then he will become indifferent to many things.
When he first came to this world, Shen Changqing was a little uncomfortable, but over time he got used to it.
The Demon Suppression Division is huge.
The people who can stay in the Demon Suppression Division are all powerful masters, or people who have the potential to become masters.
Shen Changqing belongs to the latter.
Among them, the Demon Suppression Division is divided into two professions, one is the town guard and the other is the demon exterminator.
Anyone who enters the Demon Suppression Division starts with the lowest level of demon slayer.
Then step by step, he is expected to become a town guard.
Shen Changqing's predecessor was a trainee demon slayer in the Demon Suppression Division, and he was also the lowest level of the demon slayer envoys.
Have memories of the predecessor.
He is also very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Division.
It didn't take long for Shen Changqing to stop in front of an attic.
Unlike other places full of slaughter, the attic here seems to stand out from the crowd, and in the bloody Demon Suppression Division, it presents a different tranquility.
At this time, the attic door is open, and there are occasional people entering and exiting.
Shen Changqing only hesitated for a moment, and then stepped in.
Access to the attic.
The environment has changed in vain.
A burst of ink fragrance mixed with the faint smell of blood came to his face, making his brow furrow instinctively, but quickly stretched.
The smell of blood on everyone's body in the Demon Suppression Division is almost impossible to clean.
