Soon after, the worries of the state capitals washed away the threshold of Fu Qiu's imperial study, in the imperial study.

"Your Majesty, a total of forty-seven prefectures and counties are in a financial emergency, and they have stepped up urgent reports, and the capital has been transmitted, and the troops stationed in Chongzhou have also begun to make trouble, saying that the military salary has not been paid for a long time, including the problem of taxation!"

Guo Yun's face was solemn, Fu Qiu looked at the twists, the real situation was even worse than what Guo Yun said.

"Bastard thing, Wang Wei is deliberately working against me, he just told himself to recuperate at home this morning, and in the afternoon, all the state capitals were handed over, these bastards, obeying Wang Wei's orders, ignoring my existence, should be killed!"

Fu Qiu was angry and threw the song to the ground heavily, Guo Yun, Zhao Hengjiu, Huang Yanqing and others were all startled.

"Your Majesty, after Wang Wei reported illness at home, most of the household departments stopped, many financial expenditures of the imperial court could not be implemented, and there were big problems with the collection of taxes in various places, the handover of account books, etc., and I am afraid that there will be trouble in the long run!"

Fu Qiu's face was cold, and he snorted lightly.

"This old thief wants to make me regress, but I just don't regress. Guo Yun, I ordered you to go to Chongzhou immediately, secretly investigate the matter of the army's food and salary deduction, as well as the financial shortage, there must be something wrong with the sudden change of the good end like this, this Wang Wei is playing with fire, as long as he catches his handle, cut him immediately! ”

Guo Yun arched his hand.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

He turned to leave, but Fu Qiu stopped him again.

"Wait, I sent a team of forbidden troops to protect you along the way, and you will do things with my holy decree to avoid being hindered."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Guo Yundao, after Guo Yun left, Fu Qiu hurriedly transferred some experts from the Bachelor's Mansion, as well as the Ministry of Industry and other departments, and began to take over this mess, first of all, it is to deal with the financial emergency problems of dozens of states and counties, the appropriation will be appropriated, and the severe punishment will be severely punished, as long as there is a problem, Fu Qiu is not used to these household ministers who make waves, the first to be knocked off the horse is the household squire, Yuan Mansion, the forbidden army seized here, and arrested the household servant by thunderous means, Yuan Feixiang.

"What do you want to do? What crime has this official committed, and you dare to arrest me! Yuan Fei, who was wearing a cloak, wanted to struggle and yelled one after another.

"Bang!" The forbidden army smashed his head with a punch, and this old guy was honest all of a sudden, Tao Yang was here, personally urging, and he shouted at the entire Yuan Mansion.

"Yuan Fei wants to commit rebellion, Yang Feng Yin disobeys, deducts the food and salaries and officials of Cangxian County and other thirteen places, and according to His Majesty's holy decree, he will be sent to the heavenly prison, and he will be sent down!"

The Yuan family was crying, and at the door of the mansion, the people were pointing and pointing, watching the forbidden army escort the carriage away, and at the right time, a man with thief eyebrows and rat eyes squeezed into the crowd, with a wicked smile on the corner of his mouth, and shouted as if coaxing.

"This is a Tobe squire! Catch it no matter how you say it, Your Majesty has been too murderous lately! ”

Then, someone continued.

"Who is to blame for this, didn't you hear about it, this household servant Lang deducted the financial appropriations of other small places, who will he do?"

"Hmph, high-sounding reasons, is it still reasonable to kill people today? How many people have they killed this month? ”

"Let's go to the East Market to take a look, more than a dozen people in the household department of the imperial court have been raided, it's too miserable, the wives and children in the family are all living on the streets, what a tyrant today!"

"Shh......h Be quiet...... Don't want your head? ”

Seeing this, the thief-eyed man showed a sneer on the corner of his mouth, quietly withdrew from the crowd, the task was completed, and he went back to receive the reward.

“……”

The arrest operation lasted until the night, and the entire imperial capital was full of rumors, and no one knew that they would become the next target to be arrested, especially Wang Wei Group and Wangfu.

"Dad, this dog emperor has gone crazy, and more than a dozen officials from the household department and the treasury have been arrested, what should I do? The situation is out of our control?! ”

Wang Ming frowned and said, Wang Wei was dressed in a gray robe, sitting and drinking tea like a rich man.

"Ming'er, you are still too young, you look at the imperial capital, there are complaints everywhere, the officials are rumoring, and the reputation of the little emperor will become more and more stinky in the long run, not only the people, but also the officials will not be able to stand it, it seems that he has the upper hand, but in fact he is digging his own grave!"

Wang Ming frowned and said dissatisfied.

"But if the emperor investigates like this and arrests people regardless of the consequences, we will lose a lot in the end!"

Wang Wei looked at his son with some disappointment, more than brave, not enough wisdom, deep eyes, and said.

"The old man let the household mess up, that is, let him arrest people, this is called a strong man breaking his wrist! Wait and see, when the country's tax and finances are completely messed up, the emperor will know that he will regret it, and in the long run, if he really changes the emperor's reputation in the future, it will be of great use. ”

Wang Ming seemed to understand, nodded, frowned slightly, and said.

"Guo Yun has gone to Chongzhou."

"Chongzhou?"

Wang Wei raised his eyebrows and sneered.

"Let him go, he can't find anything anyway, and when he finds out something, the court will already be in chaos."

The palace and the imperial study were brightly lit, and more than a dozen scholars and doctors were dispatched here to deal with the mess in the household department urgently.

"Your Majesty, the minister has a matter, I don't know if I should say it or not?"

Qi Yongle, the secretary of the Criminal Department, came from outside the palace and asked hesitantly.

"Say it."

Fu Qiu said while criticizing the folds, Qi Yongle frowned.

"Your Majesty, now the civil and military officials have a lot of complaints about your unrestrained arrest and questioning, and outside the palace, the streets and alleys are slandering Your Majesty for cruelty and murder, and also saying that Concubine Shu is a demon queen, misleading the country, and even, children have made up children's songs for you, and today the household department and other officials were arrested, and the voice against you has reached a climax. The minister was wondering if His Majesty could stop and ease up a little, otherwise something big would happen after a long time. ”

Fu Qiu frowned and put down the fold.

"This is Wang Wei's calculation, deliberately adding fuel to the fire, don't pay attention to it."

"Your Majesty......"

Qi Yongle still wanted to persuade again, Fu Qiu's eyes were deep, and he said slowly.

"Qi Aiqing, I know that you are loyal, but now, there is no point of relaxation, what I want is to withstand the pressure, find evidence, and then eradicate Wang Wei. And Wang Wei is all kinds of pressure, inciting hundreds of officials and people to escort him, if I regress, he will win, and my reputation has also deteriorated, this is a game that has already begun, next, it depends on who has the last laugh, these people, after all, will understand my good intentions! ”

When Qi Yongle heard this, he had no choice but to give up and give up.

"Your Majesty, since you have a plan, the old minister will not say more."

Fu Qiu nodded and asked suddenly.

"In the imperial capital, can there be capable people who coexist with civil rule and reputation, and have innocent families?"

Qi Yongle was stunned for a moment, and then said.

"Yes!"

"Who?"

Fu Qiudao.

"Henan Li's eldest son......"

"For another one, I don't want these sons and daughters of powerful ministers."

Qi Yongle frowned and thought for a while.

"Yangchun Academy, Gu Chuntang."

"What's the matter?"

Fu Qiudao.

"Cold, but his grandfather's three generations are scholars, this son has extremely high literary attainments, almost all the Confucian scholars of the Manchu Dynasty have read his articles, and this person is high-spirited and bright, and his heart is very good, even the Taishi Wei Zheng praised him very much."

Qi Yongle said, Fu Qiu raised his eyebrows, Wei Zheng praised him?

"Okay, I know, you go down and investigate the background of his relationship, and then tell me if it's okay."

Qi Yongle nodded, and then left, and not long after, Father-in-law Xi came to pay respects.

"Your Majesty, the concubine asked to see her, saying that she had something to discuss with you."

"Which concubine?"

"Wang Guifei."
