Chapter 47

After the morning retreat, Li Chengqian took Cheng Yaojin and Fang Xuanling to the household department together.

The Minister of Hubu looked extremely worried at this time.

"The First Prince."

Li Wei sighed softly, looked at Li Chengqian hesitating for a while, and asked with a wry smile.

"Are there really so many moths? At least from Chen's point of view, the books below are all normal."

Regarding Li Wei's words, Li Chengqian shook his head lightly, but did not respond, but asked him to take out all the ledgers.

Dubiously taking out the account book, Li Wei watched Li Chengqian read the account book, and then threw it to Fang Xuanling.

At the same time, Li Chengqian's gaze also became serious, and his face was as gloomy as water.

"Prince, what's the matter?"

Li Wei looked at Li Chengqian's gloomy face, and suddenly felt an ominous premonition in his heart.

Picking up a ledger at random, after opening it, Li Chengqian pointed to the numbers behind it.

"Look at these bills, especially the numbers at the end."

The numbers on the top of the ledger are neatly sorted, and they are all integers, and there even seems to be a pattern.

Li Wei picked up the account book and read it many times, but still found nothing wrong. He looked up at Li Chengqian with a dazed expression.

"Elder Prince?"

"Check it out carefully. Because of guilty conscience, those sneaky people will turn the numbers into integers later, but in fact, how can there be so many integers?"

After smacking his mouth a few times, Li Chengqian's eyes gradually cooled down as he spoke, and even his voice dropped a few degrees.

"Obviously this is fake, not only this ledger, but also the ledgers you gave before."

Li Chengqian sneered, although he was young, the majesty and oppressive force revealed at this time made Li Wei, Fang Xuanling and others tremble for a while.

Only Cheng Yaojin looked at Li Chengqian's appearance with admiration in his eyes.

But everyone understands it very well.

If these account books are all fake, how much money should those people have swallowed from the court?
There was a chill in everyone's heart.

Li Chengqian looked at Li Wei whose face turned blue and white with a blank expression, and said lightly.

"Li Wei, the Household Department has just been established, and this department was also proposed by the king to the emperor. I don't want the Household Department to become a warm nest for those vampires, do you understand?"

With a slightly pale face, Li Wei nodded repeatedly.

Because Li Chengqian came through here, he seldom calls himself the king, and usually speaks calmly, without airs.

But now Li Chengqian is really angry.

Datang is about to face a catastrophe, and the atmosphere in the court is extremely tense, but at this time, there are still vampires sucking silver in the court.

"Within two days, you should clean up the people in the household department."

As he spoke, Li Chengqian read a few more bills and took a deep breath.

"Give me a pen and paper."

Li Wei didn't dare to neglect and quickly handed over the paper and pen.

After thinking for a while, Li Chengqian wrote down the multiplication formulas for later generations on the paper.

"You should try your best to learn this. It will be useful for settling accounts."

Some of those ledgers can be seen as fake at a glance, but these people are so stupid that they can't tell the difference. The math is really bad.

After reading and reading what was written on the paper, Li Wei pondered for a while, then took the ledger in his hand, and looked up at Li Chengqian with a dazed expression.

"Eldest Prince, what are these symbols on it? Why can't I understand them?"

Li Chengqian: "..."

[Almost forgot, the Arabic numerals haven't appeared at this time. 】

However, Li Chengqian still quickly thought of a response.

"These are numbers. Let me explain to you. I made them myself. It is more convenient to calculate them. You can call them Datang Numbers."

While Li Chengqian was explaining these numbers, Fang Xuanling listened on the sidelines, the light in his eyes getting brighter and brighter. Those eyes looked at Li Chengqian as if they were looking at a rare treasure.

Only Cheng Yaojin still looked blank, raised his hand and scratched his head, completely unable to understand what Li Chengqian was saying.

As a general, he felt dizzy and wanted to sleep just after hearing similar words.

"The one I gave you is called the table of multiplication formulas, and there is also a set of table of division formulas corresponding to it. You should memorize this first, and then I will give you another set."

After Li Chengqian finished speaking, he looked down at the ledger.

[If you say too many mistakes, if you say too many mistakes, I'd better keep my mouth shut. 】

Nodding with half understanding, Li Wei looked down at the multiplication table.

His mind that was originally calm, after a while, he realized the impact of the multiplication formula written by the eldest prince, and his eyes widened suddenly, and he looked at Li Chengqian with his mouth wide open in disbelief.

"First Prince, where did you get this thing?"

Hearing this, Li Chengqian's heart skipped a beat.

[Fuck, I was a little emotional for a while, and I didn't expect the consequences of the multiplication formula being leaked. 】

[Now not only do Arabic numerals not appear, but there is also no multiplication table. 】

[This is over, how should I explain it? 】

[Are you still using the fairy in the dream? 】

The thoughts in Li Chengqian's mind were running fast, he took a breath after a while, stared at the few people in front of him, laughed and said.

"This king dreamed about it when he was dreaming. I remember it very clearly. I was a little angry just now, so I wrote it down."

"This king heard in a dream that it is very useful for settling accounts."

No one doubted Li Chengqian's explanation.

Earlier in the Hall of Tai Chi, Li Chengqian also told Li Shimin that during this period of time he was dreaming of a fairy who often preached to him.

Li Wei took the piece of paper, regarded it as a treasure, hugged it in his arms, with tears in his eyes, laughed loudly, as if possessed by a demon, and danced.

"It's not just settling accounts, it's not just settling accounts."

"Eldest Prince, if you can teach this to the people of the world..."

Speaking of this, Li Wei suddenly stopped and looked at Li Chengqian cautiously, for fear that Li Chengqian would be unhappy if he said that he would give to the people of the world.

After all, this thing should be a baby.

But what he didn't expect was that Li Chengqian showed admiration on his face when he said this, nodded, raised his hand and patted Li Wei's shoulder, and said with a smile.

"You can think of this, which shows that you are a good official for the people."

"The First Prince."

"This thing is given to you. As for how to deal with it and whether it should be handed over to the people of the world, that is your business."

At this point, Li Chengqian paused slightly, put his hands behind his back and thought for a moment, then whispered again.

"Remember to clean up the moths within two days. I will come over two days later to check the account. If there are still errors in the bill, I will do it myself."

After giving a warning, Li Chengqian glanced at Li Wei, chuckled and left.

Not long after he left, a person appeared in front of his eyes.

This person is a disciple of an aristocratic family, and he is also an official in the household department. His official position is not big or small, but he also has a certain prestige in the household department.

"My minister has met the First Prince."

"Why did you come here in such a hurry? Is there something wrong with the household department?"

Li Chengqian looked at the person in front of him with a smile, and gestured to Cheng Yaojin behind him, Cheng Yaojin reacted immediately after a short moment of stupefaction.
