At the time of the vernal equinox,

Outside the store, I don't know when it rained, the rain dripped down the eaves to the bluestone slab and there was a dripping sound, the comfortable environment and the nobles entered, it should have been a good day for the magpie on the branches, but listening to the conversation in the house still made the shopkeeper Zhang's heart tremble inexplicably.

"It's a good money, not a life!"

Qin Qingtang shouted.

He had been in a high position for a long time and had cultivated that momentum, and at this moment it erupted like a flood beast, and the scribe beside him suffered this unwarranted disaster, and his face turned pale and fell directly to the ground.

"Your Excellency!"

The middle-aged scribe shuddered.

"How does this make me angry?"

Qin Qingtang laughed angrily.

"The war in front will start the 900,000 troops of the imperial court, spilling their blood and going north to quell the chaos, but there are people in the rear who are buying and selling human lives. ”

"According to the law of Daqing, the price of goods is raised in wartime, and strange goods can live in people who hoard grain. ”

"Whoever makes a profit of more than five hundred taels of silver will be punished with eighty rods!"

"Whoever makes a profit of more than 5,000 taels of silver will be imprisoned for seven years!"

"Those who have made a profit of more than 10,000 taels of silver will be decided!"

"Those who have made a profit of more than 100,000 taels of silver will punish the three clans!"

"The effort of three million days has risen to 12 million, and I don't know how many lives will be broken behind the eight million taels of silver earned in the middle, what is the difference between this and the rebel thief?"

"Eight million taels of silver, the old man can punish him for ten clans!"

Qin Qingtang's chest rose and fell violently, and it was difficult to calm down.

"Don't look at indecent things, don't listen to indecent ......"

At the door of the store, the shopkeeper Zhang muttered something vaguely, and called the shopkeeper to quickly close the wooden door halfway, trembling and guarding outside the store, the murderous aura in the words of the noble man made people's backs cold, some things, we little people can't listen to it, and it is easy to live long if you know more.

After a stick of incense,

Qin Qingtang's emotions calmed down, and his long-term efforts to cultivate qi were not in vain.

"Shangjing Fuyi, have you ever found out who is behind the scenes?"

Qin Qingtang asked, the previous Fu Yi had already lost his head because of the dragon leaving Liangzhou, and this Fu Yi was also counted as blood mold, so he sat in that position at this juncture.

"Your Excellency, Wang Fuyi has already sent someone to investigate. ”

The middle-aged scribe, who fell to his knees, spoke.

"The result?"

"The old man wants to let the profit-seeker try the guillotine at the entrance of the vegetable market!"

"My lord, I'm afraid it's not possible. ”

The middle-aged scribe took a few steps back, and then raised his head and said with a bitter expression.

"Could it be that the people behind the scenes are relatives of the emperor and the country?"

Qin Qingtang immediately reacted when he saw the man's embarrassed expression.

The middle-aged scribe shook his head with a bitter look on his face, and nodded again after a moment.

"Yes or no?"

"Give the old man a happy word, that is, the emperor's relatives dare to risk the world's disapproval at such a juncture, and the old man has to ask him for a cup of poisoned wine today!"

Qin Qingtang asked in a deep voice, thinking about it, it is such a large sum of money, not to mention that the government does not dare to check the background behind him.

"My lord, more than that!"

"More than that?"

"Huh?"

"In addition to Li Wengong, the prince of Nagong, there are also Shangshu Yuan Quzhi of the Household Department, Yang Linzhang, the waiter of the Household Department, Liu Chengming, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, Yu De of the Zuo Governor, Gao Wenbin, a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, and Lu Renjia, the Qing of Taichang Temple...... There are more than 20 people in total. ”

Every time a name was pronounced, beads of sweat dripped from the middle-aged scribe who knelt on the ground, and a puddle of sweat had already accumulated on the ground in less than a stick of incense, and the same Qin Qingtang's gloomy face was about to drip water.

Daqing ancestral system, not the same surname is not crowned king,

There are not a few princes who have been handed down for hundreds of years, but there are still a few people with thick skin like Li Wengong, Prince of Nagong.

Now it is not surprising to do such a thing that pigs and dogs are inferior to pigs and dogs for the sake of silver, but the household department Shangshu Yuanqu directly carried a few names behind him, which really surprised him.

"So much oil and water in the household department still can't fill your stomachs, and it's really hateful to do such a thing that angers people like this!"

Qin Qingtang clenched his fists, and there were green tendons rising on his forehead.

As for the last list of names, they are all noble official positions, and the imperial envoy is energetic in impeaching hundreds of officials on weekdays, and he can't wait to make an earth-shattering fuss like a mad dog, but he didn't expect to be ruthless when he put away the money now.

But if you think about it, it's a bit big, and it's the official position that is noble, so it's very difficult to grind your mouth and skin.

"In addition to the name, can there be evidence of these people?"

Qin Qingtang asked sharply.

"All the grain and grass was sent to the manor outside the city. ”

"Don't dare to check. ”

The middle-aged scribe paused and let out a long sigh.

"Don't dare to check?"

Qin Qingtang accentuated his tone.

"That's it, to do it so far, it can be regarded as Shangjing Fuyi's best efforts. ”

After Qin Qingtang sat down, although his heart was unsettled, his face had calmed down, and when he thought about it carefully, he always felt that there was a big net that tied this group of people together, and he always felt that this matter was inexplicably similar to the last time Long went out of Liangzhou.

My keen instincts allowed me to smell too much from this list, and I always felt that it was not just about making money.

"You immediately sort out a list, and I have my own decision on this matter today. ”

Qin Qingtang looked at the steaming buns and fritters on the table and lost his appetite, the fact that there was not enough grain in the capital was not good, and forcibly requisitioning grain and grass from other places into Beijing could still be eased.

But I am afraid that the events in the city will affect the court, but the reason for this is because of the Northern Expedition, and I am afraid that someone will contribute to the chaos of the Northern Expedition's charter, and I am always inexplicably worried when I think of this.

The matter has come to this, it is naturally impossible to kill all of them at the moment, and as for the Ten Clans, it is even more nonsense, I am afraid that the entire court will have to be killed even with itself.

A bitter color appeared at the corner of Qin Qingtang's mouth, has this Daqing Imperial Court really reached such a point?

A total of 12,000,000 taels of silver, is it much?

It's really a lot,

The Zhang family, which has been circulating for 800 years, has been exterminated by the family, and the number of treasures in the land deed is almost the same.

But you are the princes of the court in the mouth of the world,

How can such a thing be done for the sake of silver?

Don't you know that there is no end to the eggs under the nest?

I'm afraid it's not that I don't know, but I just don't want to think about it.

In the past, you lay on the behemoth of Daqing to suck blood, but once this giant beast falls, whose blood are you going to suck?

The big dry in the north?

The anti-thief's sentence swept away the door valve of the world's family,

Have you forgotten again?

It's really a dog that can't change eating,

This rich profit has troubled their minds,

I just know how much I can put in my pocket.

Thinking about the scene of the deliberations in the Taihe Hall in the past, the familiar faces inexplicably became a little unfamiliar.

Lift your feet and walk into the sedan chair,

Lift the curtain and look at this huge Shangjing City,

Qin Qingtang's expression was a little dazed,

In a trance, I heard the sound of the horse's hooves stepping on the bluestone slab like spring thunder.

In a trance, I heard the mournful wails of the princes in the court.

In a trance, I heard the sound of a tsunami like a mountain roaring again.

But when you look closely,

The person in that position is no longer His Majesty.
