Chapter 70 Don't Lose Money!

When the crowd in the Taiji Hall was excited, a faint voice came from the side hall: "This king said three hours is three hours!"

As the voice came out, the figures of Li Mo and Wei Zheng finally reappeared in the Tai Chi Hall.

"Report to father, the account of the household department, my son has already found out!"

Li Mo held up an account book in his hand, but said loudly!

"Find out!"

Li Yuan was startled, he never expected that Li Mo actually found out the accounts of the Ministry of Accounts!
"impossible!"

Li Jiancheng was also taken aback at this moment, and then shook his head. How could it be possible for the two of them to find out all the accounts of the household department for three years within three hours!

"Hehe, alarmist talk!"

But Du Ruhui sneered at this moment, completely disbelieving that Li Mo would find out all the accounts of the household department for three years!

"Du Shangshu, you don't have to believe it, but that doesn't mean I can't do it!"

Li Mo turned his head to look at Du Ruhui, condescendingly, and said in a cold voice, "Now all the account books of the Ministry of Accounts for three years are in the hands of this king, and this king will give you one last chance. If you take the initiative to admit that you have neglected your duties as Minister of the Ministry of Accounts, I will The king can consider letting you go, but if you still want to quibble, then don't blame..."

"His Royal Highness Yan Wang has been checking the accounts for so long. Could it be that he was talking to me? If His Royal Highness Yan Wang really finds out, then tell the accounts!"

At this moment, Du Ruhui simply interrupted Li Mo's words!

Scare me, hehe, this is a trick I've played since I was five years old!

"Okay, since that's the case, then I'll say it!"

Li Mo looked at Du Ruhui, but shook his head slowly, then opened the account book in his hand, and read softly:
"In the six years of Wude, the total income is 42 million guan, and the expenditure is 110 million! There is no error in the account book this year!"

After Li Mo finished reading Wude's account for six years, Du Ruhui immediately sneered, the accounts of the Ministry of Accounting are already perfect, there is no possibility of mistakes at all!

"However, there is a big flaw in the accounts of the seventh year of Wude and the eighth year of Wude!"

However, after Li Mo finished reading the accounts for five or six years, he said directly:
"In the seven years of Wude, the total income was 340 million guan, but the expenditure was 720 million guan! The loss was 3708 million taels!"

"In the eight years of Wude, the total income was 81 million guan, and the expenditure was 650 million guan! The loss was 5609 million taels!"

"Du Ruhui, the household department has lost a total of 9407 million taels in two years! How do you explain this?"

At the end of Li Mo's speech, he suddenly shouted loudly!
Li Mo's words surprised everyone in the Tai Chi Hall. Was this account really found out?

But why is the deficit so large, nearly ten million taels in two years!This is completely a fantasy!
"Haha, His Highness King Yan, do you think everyone will believe you when you make up such a bunch of numbers?"

But Du Ruhui laughed loudly at this moment: "If the household department lost a total of 9407 million taels in the seven years of Wude and eight years of Wude, then how did the imperial court support it in the past two years?"

"I would like to ask His Royal Highness Yan Wang, how can I, Du Ruhui, settle the account of more than 900 million taels! You are just making up nonsense, two people and three hours, and counting the account of the Ministry of Accounts for three years, let His Royal Highness Yan calculate it like this , Ha ha, really ridiculous!"

Du Ruhui said in a cold voice, his voice was extremely mocking, but if he listened carefully, he seemed to be able to faintly hear a hint of guilt in Du Ruhui's heart!
"That's right, Mr. Du is right. In previous years, the deficit of the household department was only a million taels at most. If the deficit of the household department in the seventh year of Wude and the eighth year of Wude was as high as ten million taels, the imperial court would not be able to operate at all!"

"This statement is very serious. The shortfall of one million taels has already made the Ministry of Accounting unable to pay. If it is a shortfall of ten million taels, how can Master Du balance this account!"

At this moment, the courtiers opened their mouths one after another, questioning Li Mo. This account is completely groundless, and the shortfall of tens of millions of taels, if it really exists!
The account of the Ministry of Accounting has long been a mess, how could it be maintained to this state!

However, the ministers objected, but Changsun Wuji couldn't help sweating at this moment, and he was even more horrified: "Impossible, how could King Yan have found out the accounts of the Ministry of Households, and the values ​​are so close!"

As we all know, Du Ruhui, Minister of the Household Department, is a staunch supporter of the King of Qin, and even Du Ruhui never has too much cover for this point.

As long as the items needed by the Prince Qin's Mansion are passed by the court, the materials can appear in the Prince Qin Mansion that night. Regarding this, Du Ruhui has never concealed it in any way!

But even so, no one has ever denied that Du Ruhui is a qualified household secretary,
Although the King Qin's mansion has been given preferential treatment, the great military exploits King Qin has made for the unification of the world are beyond anyone's reach!
But Changsun Wuji knew the real operating mode of the Qin Palace's finances,

Li Mocha's accounts perfectly matched the accounts of the Ministry of Households and Prince Qin's Mansion that did not exist between paper and pen, but only existed in the hearts of King Qin and Changsun Wuji!

……

"Hehe, Du Ruhui, it seems that you don't give up until you reach the Yellow River, and you don't cry when you see the coffin. Lord Wei, please point out these wrong accounts to Du Ruhui, so that this idiot can see how ridiculous you are. !"

Li Mo looked at Du Ruhui contemptuously at this moment, and there was no doubt that there was a mockery in his eyes!

"Yes, His Royal Highness King Yan!"

Wei Zheng immediately bowed and took the account book handed over by Li Mo, and then shouted loudly:

"In the seventh year of Wude, the Taiyuan government taxed 57 taels of silver. After being released to Beijing, it was divided into three parts, of which 10 taels were used to strengthen the Yellow River embankment, 30 taels were used for the military pay of the knights, and 17 taels were used to repair the palace. , but in Wu De's seven-year military pay record for Xiaoqiwei, the actual pay is only 20 taels!"

"In the seventh year of Wude, Yangzhou government taxed 80 taels of silver. His Majesty ordered that it be used to purchase [-] high-quality war horses to supplement the loss of war horses in the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun. Three thousand horses!"

"Eight years of Wude, Yizhou tax and silver 92 taels..."

"Eight years of Wude, Mengzhou tax and silver 14 taels..."

Wei Zheng chanted again and again, but it made the Taiji Hall speechless. The people in Prince Qin's Mansion, who were still making noise just now, looked at each other in blank dismay, not daring to speak!
At this moment, they would rather believe that what Wei Zheng said was all fake, but would the fake be so detailed?

But if it is not forged, why has the Ministry of Accounts balance in the past few years and there has been no deficit?

What is going on in all this?
