"Bastard, rice bucket ......"

Above the Great Xia Jinluan Palace, Emperor Wu Yuanchun of Xia opened his eyes angrily, slammed his hand into the officials below, and said angrily:

"Does this Liuyun City magistrate eat dry rice?"

"Tens of thousands of taels of silver are lost, are my officials all a group of ornaments?"

"This kind of waste, what is left for him to do."

Taking pictures of the emperor's majesty, a kind of officials bowed their heads one after another, and shouted in unison, "Your Majesty is angry".

An old man with a white beard, dressed in a nine-python five-clawed python robe, embroidered with cranes and patches, wearing a flower feather on his head, holding a white ivory wat board, bowed slightly, walked forward with his waist down, picked up the folds that fell to the ground, took away his hand unhurriedly, and said unhurriedly:

"Your Majesty, please calm your anger, according to the judgment of the old minister, it is still a little too rash to make a conclusion on this matter just based on Cao Zhizhou's words."

"Humph! Elder Li Ge, do you think he, Cao Ren, will frame a subordinate for no reason? ”

Hearing this, Wu Yuanchun got up and walked to the front of the high platform, and pointed to the fold in Li Ge's old hand angrily,

"You take a closer look, take a closer look at what this recital says, if it weren't for his Cao Ren's private visit to Liuyun City and his own personal experience, how could he have explored the suffering of the displaced people, and how could he know the grievances of the people?"

"Look at it again, how did he know that this person named Chen Dali is Tang Guanli's wife and brother? What this immediate family member said, is there still a lie? ”

"It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous!"

Li Ge is neither humble nor arrogant, and still speaks bluntly:

"Your Majesty, it's not that the old minister questioned Cao Zhizhou's words, it's just that it involves a lot of things, and it will inevitably affect the whole body, and the loss of this disaster silver will definitely be inescapable of Liuyun Zhixian County, but it's just ......"

"Elder Li Ge, you are really living more and more, how can you learn this set, you have something to say."

Wu Yuanchun was already angry, and at this time, the dignified scholar actually put on a look of wanting to speak and stopping, which made him even more angry.

"This ......"

Li Qian saw that Wu Yuanchun was obviously carried away by anger and showed impatience, but what he wanted to express in his heart was that he was suspected of belittling the emperor's majesty, but the matter was too big for him to be indecisive, so he immediately stepped forward and bowed slightly, and said frankly:

"Your Majesty, this disaster relief fund is not funded by the state treasury, and the matter is urgently followed, and the three counties will do it in a fixed amount, and allocate 20% of the tax and silver to resettle the displaced people in Daliang, so as to stabilize the hearts of the people, so as to show the world my Daxia Longwei, I don't know if it is or not?"

"That's right, but what does Elder Li Ge mean by this?"

Wu Yuanchun was obviously stunned, and he didn't know why Li Qian was avoiding the important at this time, and talking about this strategy.

"Then Your Majesty does you know the tax revenue of these three cities, and the amount of this disaster silver?"

"Besides, what should I do with this disaster silver, is it a one-time distribution or a slow use?"

"This ......"

Wu Yuanchun is a little embarrassed by this fall, do you have to do it yourself as an emperor? Isn't it their household matter how much this tax is, and if you ask me like this, don't you just make me unable to come down in public?

And under the main hall, Qiu Ming, the head of the household, smelled a hint of opportunity, and immediately wanted to go to the emperor to answer, as soon as he walked out of the queue, he was stopped by Li Qian waving his hand,

"Lord Qiu, the old man didn't ask you."

Qiu Ming was petrified to the ground in an instant, and he stood up, this is not to say it, it is not to say it, but it is difficult for a while.

Wu Yuanchun couldn't help it, this Li Qian was not only an official scholar, not to mention the foreman cabinet, but also his own teacher, so he was reasonable, and he had to give him three points of thin noodles, so he nodded to Qiu Ming.

Qiu Ming was relieved and shrank back.

Wu Yuanchun moved his buttocks, pretended to cough calmly, and continued:

"Elder Li Ge, you continue, I know that your remarks must mean something, so you might as well say it directly."

"Your Majesty, it's not that the old minister did it on purpose, it's just that this document has been issued all the way, and the tax and silver are two percent, and even Your Majesty doesn't know the geometry, if it weren't for the household department and the county officials of the three places, who else would know the specific amount? What's more, if it wasn't for the fact that he had known His Majesty's intention to help the disaster of another country a long time ago, then where did the villain know about the existence of this disaster silver? ”

"Your Majesty looked at what was said in this compromise, the loss of more than 16,000 taels of disaster silver, such a specific amount, where did Chen Dali know, I think this person should not be a county official, or rather, is this person an idiot? Even if he is Tang Guanli's wife and brother, he knows the reason, but Cao Zhizhou is a private visit, and when he asks casually, he tells the truth, which is a bit too child's play, doesn't he know that this kind of crime is a capital crime? ”

A series of questions showed what Li Qian really thought in his heart, and the problems were not as simple as losing the silver and the two, if it wasn't done by others, this self-theft was definitely a sure thing.

At this point, Wu Yuanchun naturally slowly figured out the problem, "What does Elder Li Ge mean, the guards steal from themselves?" ”

As soon as Wu Yuanchun spoke, he felt that something was wrong, since it was a self-theft, how could Cao Ren easily know that the stakes were really unbearable.

And a group of officials heard Li Ge Lao's words, they were already in a cold sweat, this Manchu Dynasty civil and military, it is difficult for anyone to choose themselves smoothly, although they did not participate in person, except for Liuyun, the other two cities, from bottom to top, are more or less involved, this only check Liuyun City, if it is a thorough investigation of the three cities, it will really be unlucky to open the door to the unlucky, and it will not be home.

"Brother Huang, the younger brother thinks that what Elder Li Ge said is very true, what is lost is definitely not as simple as this sixteen thousand taels, I think there must be a hidden truth in this."

At this time, a sonorous voice sounded from Li Qian's side, and when he heard the reputation, Wu Yuanchun was interested, this sixth man has always been silent, and he doesn't ask about court affairs, but today he has opened Chrysostom, so he opened his mouth and asked meaningfully:

"Oh? It seems that the sixth brother should have thought of a solution, so he might as well talk about it. ”

Li Qian behaved very calmly, looking at the top of the dragon chair without squinting, not caring at all about the solution that the sixth prince was about to propose.

The sixth prince, Wu Yuanheng, laughed and said:

"Brother is stupid, how can there be any good way, but I think that since there are a lot of strange things in this, why don't you send someone to investigate, it's just that this candidate is ......"

Wu Yuanchun smiled when he heard this:

"It seems that the sixth brother has already thought of me in front of me, so it's okay, so since this candidate is mentioned, I don't know if the sixth brother has any suggestions?"

"Brother Huang, brother thinks ......"

"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks ......"

At the same time, Li Qian and Wu Yuanheng's voices sounded at the same time.

This Wu Yuanheng thinks, he Li Qian knows it, and Li Qian so-called, Wu Yuanheng is as clear as a mirror, the eyes of the two are intertwined, look at each other, and no one wants to fall into the disadvantage.

"Elder Li Ge, I'm asking the sixth child, which play are you playing?"

Without waiting for Wu Yuanheng to speak, Li Qian took the first step and said:

"Your Majesty, the old minister just thinks that the sixth prince has not been in the court for a long time, and the candidate he said may not be the best candidate, but the old minister has thought a lot for the sixth prince, and the candidate has already had an idea, and His Majesty will definitely agree with it."

"Oh?"

Glancing at Li Qian's confident expression, Wu Yuanchun immediately smiled at Wu Yuanheng with interest:

"Sixth, I don't mind if Elder Li Ge steals the limelight from you."

The corners of Wu Yuanheng's eyes twitched slightly, and he still wanted to make a final effort, "Brother Huang, the younger brother is willing to hear the details, if the candidate is not satisfied, the younger brother should speak out." ”

"Okay, since the sixth brother has no opinion, then Li Ge Lao, you can talk about it!"

Li Qian didn't pause, and bluntly said the word "prince"!

"What?"

Wu Yuanchun was a little surprised, how did this prince enter Li Qian's field of vision, this is a master who knows how to eat, drink and have fun, not four or six, if it weren't for the old emperor's love for his eldest grandson, he wouldn't know how many times he had abolished this cub.

So he showed a look of disbelief and confirmed again:

"Are you sure? Be...... Prince? ”

"If you go back to Your Majesty, the old minister is sure that it is the prince."

Li Qian confirmed.

Wu Yuanheng on the side laughed sullenly, thinking secretly, who do you choose, but choose the most useless, do you say that it is better to agree or disagree, this is the same as disagreeing, as far as his master who only knows fishing every day, what problem can he find out, is it waiting for him Prince Xia to fish, and the one who wishes to take the bait?

The officials in the audience were also discussing at this time, which made Wu Yuanchun blush, not that he looked down on that son, but the son was embarrassed, and his father also wiped his forehead, but the emperor's majesty still had to be maintained, and he immediately shouted:

"What's the matter, do you have any objections?"

For a while, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty bowed their heads and remained silent, fearing that their actions would cause the emperor to be dissatisfied and make an example of them.

Wu Yuanchun spat out slightly and said:

"This ...... Li Ge Lao, why is he the prince? ”

"Your Majesty, with all due respect, although the prince is stubborn by nature and a little greedy for pleasure, his vision is limited only because the prince is very young and trapped within the high walls all the year round, and he does not know the suffering of the people."

"The minister wants to come, this trip is a good opportunity, so that he can see the people and taste the flavors of the world, not to mention, the body of the prince represents His Majesty's heart for this matter, and he will definitely get twice the result with half the effort."

“……”

When he said this, in fact, even Li Qian said it, he was a little unconfident, he was afraid that the lord would rush with fishing gear, and he would hook it when he was in the water, and catch it all the way to Liuyun.

And what Wu Yuanchun thinks is that the prince's safety is so bad that he doesn't have to worry too much, he has been practicing martial arts by the old emperor's side since he was a child, and this body of force is probably not close to ordinary people, but this stupid son can remember what he is doing, just because he has always forgotten things since he was a child, and he has been beaten a lot, until he learned to fish, he has a mind, but from then on, there is only fishing left in his mind.

Thinking of this, Wu Yuanchun really wanted to refuse, but if he refused, wouldn't this be a slap in the face, Lao Tzu looked down on his son, and when he said this, he couldn't be laughed out of his big teeth, so he turned his head to the sixth Wu Yuanheng,

"That'...... Sixth brother, do you have any other candidates? ”

Seeing that Wu Yuanheng didn't speak for a while, Wu Yuanchun was a little anxious, quietly gave a look, and added, "I mean, similar candidates, as long as you say it, I will think about it." ”

The implication is too obvious, as long as you say, I don't need to think about it, just use your proposal.

But Wu Yuan Hengquan didn't see it, he just bowed his head and replied to himself:

"Brother Chen, second..."
