"Your Highness.

The magistrates of Lantian and Wannian counties have been arrested for corruption and dereliction of duty by Qianniuwei.

The Dali Temple and the Ministry of Criminal Affairs sent people to intensify the interrogation, and a dozen of the accompanying officials have already been tracked down.

People in Gyeonggi are in panic now, and no one knows where His Majesty will send someone to check the accounts tomorrow. "

Mingde Hall.

Liu Rong bowed and cupped his hands, and said in a flat tone.

Li Jing smiled when he heard this, and teased, "Tsk tsk!
The purpose was not disclosed in advance, and it was only decided in the early morning where to investigate.

Father can't wait, he wants to send Wang Ju and others on the road! "

"Your Highness.

I really don't understand, what does His Majesty do to Wang Ju and others? "

Liu Rong thought for a while, then asked with a frown.

Li Jing glanced at him contemptuously, and replied casually: "If you are a corrupt official in a county.

Although you know that someone will come to check the accounts in the near future, but you still can't find out the specific date in advance, do you feel that life is like a year, and life is worse than death? "

"meeting!

Of course it will! "

Liu Rong nodded firmly, and asked again with puzzled eyes: "But even so, what does it have to do with Wang Ju and others?"

"what relationship?
Old Liu, you really don't understand? "

Li Jing sneered.

Looking at Liu Rong with a bewildered face, he sighed and said, "If you know that there is a ghost in the accounts, checking the accounts will definitely expose what you have concealed. How would you choose to deal with it?"

Liu Rong frowned in thought when he heard the words, and after a while he gritted his teeth and said, "Your Highness, a person with a humble job is also a person who cherishes his life.

Your Majesty is now furious, if someone finds out that there is something wrong with the accounts, how can a humble position survive.

Since someone made Humble Job unable to live, Humble Job...

Hehe~”

"Humph!

You are not too stupid!

It's a pity that some people are blinded by fame and wealth, and they can't see clearly that the waves are already turbulent under the lake.

Just wait, the capital will definitely shake within five days! "

……

In the case of conclusive evidence, the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment quickly issued approval documents.

The county magistrate Zhu was imprisoned to choose a day to be executed, and his family property was confiscated and sent to the national treasury.

The magistrate of Lantian County is also like him, and he will be sent to death row within two days.

All of a sudden, there was an undercurrent in the Guannei Road, and countless officials gathered around to look for life.

And Li Shimin even fanned the flames in the early court.

In front of all civil and military officials, he sternly declared that he must investigate to the end this time.

Anyone who embezzles more than [-] guan of copper coins will be sentenced to confiscation of their homes and exile, and beheaded for public display.

"Xuanling, Your Majesty's move is really hasty!"

Shangshu province.

Du Ruhui frowned, his face was full of worry.

Changsun Wuji also pretended to be bitter, sighed and shook his head and said: "Throughout the ages, the courts have always been loyal and treacherous, and there was never a time when integrity served the public and the river was clear.

Although it is reasonable for His Majesty to want to eliminate corrupt officials, it is really inappropriate to be so eager for quick success.

Once the opposition of hundreds of officials is aroused, the government will inevitably come to a standstill.

more than this……

I'm afraid someone will take the risk! "

"Ugh!

I don't know what the two of you said.

But His Majesty has made up his mind, so how can we rashly persuade him.

Let's take a look first, maybe His Majesty has already made a plan. "

Fang Xuanling stroked his white beard lightly, and said with a meaningful smile.

Changsun Wuji was taken aback when he saw it, and asked with a wry smile, "You old man!
Thinking about it, Fang Yiai must have suffered a serious illness last night, and she is temporarily unable to contribute to the court! "

"Hehe~"

Fang Xuanling chuckled lightly, holding a teacup and said amusedly, "Could it be that Chang Sun Chong is fine and can go to school with illness?"

"Hahaha~"

Changsun Wuji laughed out loud when he heard this, pulled his beard and said solemnly: "At this moment, there must be countless officials secretly inquiring, wanting to know who the person who checked the accounts yesterday is.

After all, with the ability of the officials of the Ministry of Household Affairs, it is absolutely impossible to check the accounts of a county in one day.

If he really finds out the root cause, the person who was ordered to check the accounts will be in danger! "

"Ugh!

Your Majesty wants to take this opportunity to suppress the noble family and us, but we have no choice but to do nothing!
It's just that most of the people who checked the accounts this time were acquainted with you and me. "

Du Ruhui shook his head in agreement, with a hint of loneliness in his words.

Changsun Wuji shook his head, sighed and said, "Why is Keming so worried.

If you think about it, you and I are not stupid people, so we will naturally have a way to deal with it.

As for what to do with the rest...

Always leave one or two fools to let His Majesty vent his anger.

Otherwise, His Majesty's anger is likely to be borne by you and me. "

"This……"

Fang Xuanling and the two looked at each other, and they both lowered their heads without changing expressions.

Who is the fool that Changsun Wuji said is unknown to outsiders.

But the viciousness and determination in his heart really made the two of them secretly startled.

It's just that until now, the two of them have no proper way to please each other.

He could only helplessly press down his worries, and anxiously waited for the news from the outside world.

……

Three o'clock noon.

Duke of Wei.

Li Dejian dragged his drowsy head and staggered towards the side hall.

Seeing this, Li Jing put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands, and asked rather dissatisfied: "Have you been drinking?"

"I drank a little with the officials of the household department."

Li Dejian paused when he heard the words, cupped his fists respectfully and gave a salute.

Although his father doesn't like bear's paws like Cheng Yaojin does.

But if you really provoke him to get angry, the ending will definitely be a hundred times more miserable than Cheng Chumo.

"Humph!

His Majesty ordered you to go to check the accounts, but you were drinking and having fun during the day!
If the censor finds out, being a father depends on how you explain it! "

Li Jing was obviously very dissatisfied.

If it weren't for Mrs. Li who was beside him with raised eyebrows, he might have already ordered others to serve him.

"Daddy misunderstood.

Haier just finished checking the accounts before drinking with the officials of the household department. "

Li Dejian raised his head and said triumphantly.

Li Jing was startled when he heard the words, and asked curiously: "So fast?

Could it be that His Majesty changed his mind temporarily and decided not to pursue it? "

"it's not true.

It's just that children do things faster! "

Li Dejian shook his head, and proudly replied: "Father doesn't know something. The Academy of Sciences is the best in the world in mathematics.

Now the people in the capital say that the Ministry of Household Affairs is not as good as the Academy of Sciences.

It would indeed take more than ten days if the officials of the household department personally acted.

But if there are children and other students of the Academy of Sciences doing it, it only takes half a day to find out. "

"Humph!"

Li Jing snorted coldly, and said with a sullen face, "I really don't know this as a father.

But the disciples of Jiangmen must not be arrogant and complacent, what you did today really disappointed my father! "

"Uh……

The child is guilty, please punish him! "

Seeing that Li Jing was angry, Li Dejian hurriedly bowed and worshiped.

Mrs. Li beside her couldn't bear to see it, she looked at Li Jing seriously and said: "Okay.

Jian'er has worked hard today, so please stop saying a few words.

You can control the soldiers and generals in the army, but you are not allowed to do this at home in the future! "

"lady!!!"

Li Jing felt a headache when he heard this.

Glancing at Li Dejian, who lowered his head and snickered, he gritted his teeth and said, "Forget about drinking for now.

But you drank too much alcohol today and accidentally broke your legs, so you should rest at home tomorrow. "

"Um?!
Father, isn't this good, baby? "

Li Dejian looked at the intact legs and muttered in great puzzlement.

Seeing this, Mrs. Li sighed, stood up and said, "Your father is also doing it for your own good, you just need to obey orders.

If there is anything you don't understand, go down and understand it yourself.

After a few more days, you will naturally understand your father's painstaking efforts. "

"This……"

Li Dejian was very hesitant when he heard the words.

In his view, checking accounts is an opportunity to make a name for himself.

To give up suddenly without knowing why, really made him feel extremely distressed.

But due to the prestige that Li Jing had established all the years, he really didn't dare to speak out to refute.

He could only forcibly suppress the bitterness in his heart, and bowed aggrievedly: "My child obeys."
