The study was silent for a long time.

Jia Hongping, the leader of the Golden Bell Jar, hugged his fist towards the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, Qi Xinyun, the minister of imperial salt that you arranged for me to investigate, has already been investigated. ”

"Your Majesty understands righteousness!"

"This dog official embezzled and accepted bribes of tens of millions of taels, and also embezzled thousands of hectares of fertile land."

"There are countless private mansions."

"He should be charged with corruption and bribery!"

"Also, Your Majesty, all the ministers you are going to investigate thoroughly have committed the taboo of embezzlement and bribery!"

"But they are greedy, and they are only one-tenth of the Minister of Salt!"

After Jia Hongping, the leader of the Golden Bell Jar, finished speaking, the other two ministers also took a step forward and said: "Your Majesty, Wechen and Commander Jia Hongping will thoroughly investigate this matter together, and Wechen will guarantee it with the head of the item, and what Commander Jia said is true!" ”

"If there is half a lie, Weichen, apologize with death!"

“……”

Seeing these ministers say this, Qin Tian suddenly came to his senses.

It turned out that the emperor listened to his words and was ready to implement the strategy of "cutting wool and leeks".

This embezzled tens of millions of taels of silver, and tens of thousands of acres of fertile land, I am afraid that the fattest sheep were bald at one time, and the strongest leeks were all cut.

As expected.

When the emperor heard what these ministers had said, he immediately opened his eyes angrily and slammed the teacup he had used to drink tea to the ground.

"Presumptuous!"

The teacup shattered in response, and even the hot water that Qin Tian had just added was sprinkled all over the ground.

In the next second, the three ministers fell to their knees and shouted, "Your Majesty, don't be angry!" ”

But I saw the emperor holding a string of Buddhist beads and pacing in the imperial study.

He was both angry and worried: "The Zhou country is in trouble, the people are suffering, the floods are raging, and displaced people can be seen everywhere. ”

"Qi Xinyun, as the minister of the Zhou State, is just not worried about solving problems, but he is still so suspicious! Corruption and bribery! ”

"It's a great shame, it's really a great shame for my Zhou Kingdom!"

The three ministers, you look at me, I look at you, all of them fanned the flames along with the emperor: "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that Qi Xinyun's crime deserves to be killed, and he should be decided!" ”

"Qi Xinyun is simply ashamed, he must be decided, and the people are angry!"

"Your Majesty, you should take back the silver that belongs to the court, and return it to its original owner!"

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

The emperor seemed to be very heartbroken, but under the vigorous push of these three "loyal ministers", he had to make this heart-wrenching decision: "Sun Dexian! ”

Sun Dexian immediately took a step forward and greeted the emperor: "The slave is here." ”

"Qi Xinyun, the minister of imperial salt, and other corrupt officials, corrupt and bribery, with ill intentions, is really chilling!"

"Order the Nine Clans, take back all the official money that has been embezzled, and confiscate it!"

Sun Dexian immediately bowed slightly, then shook off the dust and walked towards the outside of the imperial study.

The three ministers still fell to their knees, waiting for the emperor's second decree.

The emperor frowned, and after thinking for a long time, he looked at the three "loyal ministers" who knelt on the ground and said: "The three Aiqing thoroughly investigated the corrupt officials, and their contributions were indispensable, and their official positions were promoted to one grade." ”

"The seizure of the embezzlement of silver this time is handled by the three of you with full authority!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"The ministers will do their best, and they will not disappoint Your Majesty's expectations!"

It seemed that he was tired of walking in the room, and after the emperor sat down, he glanced at Qin Tian disapprovingly.

After a while, the emperor suddenly spoke: "Qin Tian has an order!" ”

The moment Qin Tian heard that he was named, he reflexively knelt down: "The slave is here!" ”

"I appointed you as the royal envoy to personally thoroughly investigate the various crimes of Qi Xinyun, the minister of imperial salt, as well as the matter of punishing the nine clans!"

"If it's not suitable, tell me as soon as possible!"

Qin Tian immediately kowtowed: "Slave leader!" ”

"Okay, that's it for now."

"Stand down, and get this done as soon as possible."

The Emperor waved his hand, then leaned back on the table wearily.

It's as if the anger just now has drained his energy.

Seeing this, Qin Tianyi and the others left the imperial study respectfully.

If Qin Tian was not mistaken.

Just now, the emperor was just a little angry, and his face became so bad.

It seems that the emperor's body has lost nothing.

It's no wonder that after being on the throne for so long, the dragon species born to the harem concubine is only a thousand gold.

After leaving the imperial study, Qin Tian did not follow the three ministers to the mansion of the Imperial Salt Minister.

Instead, I went to get a sign and was ready to go.

When doing things in the palace, you have to keep an eye on everything.

Otherwise, being caught in pigtails for no reason is always dangerously tight.

In case the person with a heart takes the head of his own neck, it will be too wrong!

Just now he watched these three old Bi Deng acting in the imperial study, and the whole person was numb!

If he hadn't known in advance that these old Bi Dengqi were acting, he would have been bluffed, thinking that they were the number one loyal minister in the world.

Now that Qin Tian has real power, he is a little floating when he walks.

As soon as he walked to the gate of the palace, Qin Tian saw the horses that the eunuchs had arranged in advance.

Qin Tian waved his hand and said disapprenously: "I'm not feeling well. ”

"Let's change the carriage."

When the little eunuch heard this, he immediately looked for the carriage in a hurry.

However, after a pillar of incense, Qin Tian took a carriage and went to the mansion of Qi Xinyun, the minister of imperial salt.

Just walked out of the palace gate.

Qin Tian saw the outside world, which was very different from the environment of the palace.

Even if you are walking on the official road, you can see that there are all homeless people who cannot be seen at a glance.

Displaced people can be seen everywhere, a scene of mourning.

It was the cold winter wax moon, Qin Tian was wearing brocade cotton clothes, even if he was sitting in the carriage, Qin Tian felt that the cold wind was a little biting.

On the other hand, the countless homeless people on the side of the road were unclothed, if they weren't still panting, Qin Tian even felt that they would have died on the street a long time ago.

Unable to bear to continue looking, Qin Tian retracted his gaze and sighed faintly.

The dog emperor and the harem concubines know how to enjoy life, and when they are rewarded, they often cost thousands of taels of gold and silver.

If this money is given to the people, why are so many people unclothed and hungry?

"Official, please, save my father!"

"Please, please save my daddy!"

"As long as you save my father, I am willing to be a cow and a horse for you, without complaint!"

Suddenly, Qin Tian heard a gentle and poignant female voice coming from the side of the carriage.

This made Qin Tian very excited.

His eyes widened in astonishment.

"Stop!"
