I am the censor, at the beginning I denounced the empress

Chapter 14 The Empress' Bad Idea
The next day.

Su Zhengtai.

Empress Yuan Shang sat on the steps of Suzheng Terrace early on, watching condescendingly.

She was looking forward to it, Tang Can gritted her teeth and scrambled to Suzhengtai to ask questions.

Just thinking about it makes her feel relieved!

time flies.

Time has passed, and there is still no sign of Tang Can.

This idiot dared to resist the order again!
Yuan Shang raised his eyebrows and walked away, ready to go to court early.

In the court hall, Tang Can was still not seen.

Not only Tang Can didn't come, but when the ceremonial officer of Chunbu sang the salute, he said that he would be the supervisor and the major general were all absent.

Yuan Shang's complexion is not very good!

This idiot Tang Can actually brought down the general prisoner!
The more the empress thought about it, the angrier she became, and her interest in court meetings dropped greatly.

In particular, the discussions at the meeting were still those things that needed to spend money and affect her construction of the palace.

"Reconsideration."

The empress waved her hand neatly, ending the morning court.

Harem, Manna Hall.

Shangguan Wan'er, who was dressed in black, had been waiting for a long time.

"Tang Can, an idiot, where did he die?" the Empress asked coldly.

Shangguan Wan'er shuddered, and said softly: "Yesterday he went to serve as a prisoner, and went home to rest at night. It was just dawn, and went to serve as a prisoner again."

"Will be a prisoner?"

The empress frowned slightly, a little puzzled: "What did he do?"

"Waterwheel." Shangguan Wan'er said in a low voice: "He and Yan Liben brought a group of craftsmen to supervise the development of waterwheels."

"The message received by the slaves is that the waterwheel can be driven by running water, and the fields can be irrigated without the need for humans."

Shangguan Wan'er's voice trembled a little.

"There is such a thing?" The empress couldn't believe it.

"Yes, the servants don't know the truth, but the prisoner said so."

"Hmm." The empress nodded and remained silent.

After a while, he spoke again: "Did he do something wrong during the execution yesterday? Otherwise, how could he still have the energy to go to jail?"

Shangguan Wan'er was taken aback, and quickly knelt down: "My lord, the wound on Tang Can's execution yesterday is bloody and bloody, it cannot be faked."

"Just...just..."

"Say!" The empress' tone was a little colder.

"Xie Anshi sent the medicine, and with Gao Yinliu beside him, he healed his injuries with inner energy."

Shangguan Wan'er bit the bullet and said: "And...and Tang Can said that the Holy Majesty doesn't want to make progress, it would be a waste of life, so he can only do it himself..."

Empress: "..."

……

Luantai.

Xie Anshi was even more speechless.

Originally, I thought that Tang Can was injured yesterday, so he should honestly rest at home.

Unexpectedly, this kid couldn't rest at all, turned around and ran to the prison.

Even if you resist the decree, you don't even go to the court with the general as the prisoner.

"This time, the old man really made a mistake."

Xie Anshi smiled wryly, blaming himself a bit.

If he hadn't been smart enough to order someone to tell Tang Can, he wouldn't have become like this.

"There is a specialization in surgery, so why bother?" Sighing, Xie Anshi didn't understand Tang Can.

Even if Tang Can can think of such a shocking way of national debt.

But the national debt, and will be in prison, are two concepts.

It is not a matter of overnight to be a supervisor and research farm tools.

Taking Quyuanli as an example, it took several years for Zhiyuanli to have a whimsical idea, and it took more than a year, nearly two years before it was truly completed.

It costs a lot of manpower and material resources.

"Forget it, let him alone." Xie Anshi shook his head, guessing in his heart that Tang Can might not be angry with the Empress, so he did it himself.

Those who are too rigid are easy to break, those who are kind and soft are undefeated.

He has just entered an official position. Although Yu Shi Qingliu advised him to be unafraid of power, he was too tough and always easily brought trouble to himself.Moreover, it is not a good policy to do everything yourself.

"This time, I hope he can understand and grow up. Only in this way can Great Liang be saved..."

Xie Anshi stopped talking, opened the memorial on the desk, and started to work.

……

In a flash, half a month.

Every morning before the court, the empress went to Suzhengtai as usual.

Even if she knew that Tang Can would not come back, she would still go, and then angrily went to the morning court.

In the court, it is still a matter of disputes over historical issues and spending money.

In addition, there was another major event that caused several important officials in the court to tear their eyes apart!

The empress ordered Baiqisi to directly withhold Jiangnan taxes and food in Jiangnan, and directly build a palace again on Jiangnan Road!

If the treasury is abundant, they will not object to how the empress wants to build the palace.

But unfortunately, the treasury is empty, without a dime, just waiting for the tax money from Jiangnan Road this autumn.

A few days ago, Xie Anshi and others had discussed it.

Part of the tax money from Jiangnan Province was put into the secret treasury to replenish the empress's national debt.

The other part is used for court expenses.

This time, all the plans were disrupted!
Xie Anshi couldn't sit still, Liang Wang Gao Yuanyi laughed like crazy.

morning meeting.

The atmosphere was a little depressing.

"Your Majesty, please thoroughly investigate Jiangnan Dao and Xiabu!" Hou Feng, a cruel official who hadn't been unjustly jailed for a long time, looked excited today.

"Jiangnan Dao tax bank has always been the most important tax bank in my dynasty, but now it has disappeared, nearly ten million taels of silver, this is not a trivial matter!"

Whether the tax bank can be found is not important.

The most important thing is to take this opportunity to ransack Jiangnan Road, and teach Xiabu and those rough people a lesson!

Hou Feng had a grin on the corner of his mouth.

He can be sure that when the empress heard the news, she would be furious, and she might get up in anger.

When the time comes, he Hou Feng...

only……

The Empress' expression remained unchanged, she just said indifferently: "Xie Anshi, what do you think?"

"I think that we should conduct a thorough investigation to the end! The relevant personnel will be severely punished!"

Xie Anshi's voice was hoarse, but everyone could hear the uncontrollable anger.

"King Liang, what do you think?" The Empress was noncommittal.

Gao Yuan's face was full of fat and trembling, and he smiled without a smile: "I think it's a thorough investigation. In addition, I have ordered the bad people under my command to come out and go to Shannan, Jiannan, Henan and other eight ways to guard the tax bank! "

"Li Yaoshi also led his troops to Hebei to guard the tax bank for this autumn personally! After the Jiangnan incident is found out, he will be escorted separately."

This... this is not appropriate!

Gao Yuanyi's bad guys have amazing fighting power, and her Baiqisi encounters bad guys, and the outcome is five or five.

What's more, Hebei Road is her next goal.

With an old man like Li Yaoshi in charge, Baiqisi had no choice.

Thinking in her heart, the empress saw a flash of determination in Gao Yuan's eyes.

Xie Anshi's face was as deep as water, and he had the aura that if he dared to rob again, he would be killed.

This time...it seems to have gone too far.

The empress settled down, thinking in her heart.

In this case, we can only wait until the tax bank enters Beijing. At that time, whether it is the national treasury or the dark treasury, we can always think of a way to start.

"What the Qing family said makes sense."

The female emperor's cold voice sounded: "The matter of Jiangnan Dao will be investigated and dealt with by King Liang and Xie Anshi together. After the investigation is made, I will personally punish it!"

After all, it is her Baiqisi, so she can't say it to death all at once.

Seeing that such a big matter had nothing to do with him, Hou Feng was not happy anymore.

Bite the bullet and said: "Your Majesty, I have already made up my mind about this matter, why don't I let my minister..."

In his heart, there was still a word he didn't dare to say: Your Majesty, you can't cross the river and tear down the bridge!
Recently, he has clearly felt that his status is getting lower and lower, and his role is getting smaller and smaller.

If this continues, I'm afraid my life will end...

The empress glanced coldly, and waved her hand: "This matter is not the responsibility of the Magistrate, Hou Feng, you should do your own thing well."

own thing?
Hou Feng, who was still lost just now, his eyes lit up.

Judging from this, it should be to let him continue to attack the court officials.

I just don't know... who is it?
For a while, I have to ask Shangguan Wan'er...

correct!

Hou Feng said: "My lord, I also know that this matter has nothing to do with me, but the tax bank is related to the country. If the matter in Jiangnan Road is not investigated, the tax bank cannot be shipped."

"If you still say it in ten and a half months, if you can't find it out after a long time, it will shake the foundation of the country."

The implication is to set a time limit for the investigation.

"That's right." A trace of satisfaction flashed in the empress's eyes: "In this case, how long do you two think the time limit is appropriate?"

It is best not to transport it to the capital of God forever, but to transport it directly to the dark storehouse, which is quite appropriate.

This is Xie Anshi's heartfelt words.

At least, they can't start shipping until they figure out how to avoid tax money being robbed again.

"I think it can be limited to one year."

What happened this time was too irritating, Xie Anshi simply opened his mouth like a lion.

"No." Gao Yuan said with a smile: "The news came from Jiangnan Dao the day before yesterday that the gangsters who robbed tax money were only a few hundred riders, but they were highly skilled in martial arts. There were more than a thousand soldiers in Jiangnan Dao, and they were powerless to fight back."

"Such a gangster, if you want to capture it, it may take two years!"

Xie Anshi then added: "Now that the national treasury is empty, tax money is too important for the country. It is not only needed to govern the world, but also to manage branch offices. Therefore, tax money should be extremely cautious!"

The two of them sang together, threatened, and negotiated, just not giving the empress a chance to grab tax money.

Empress Yuan Shang was so angry that her teeth itch.

After a while, Youyou said: "You can't do anything, but I have a way."

Gao Yuanyi, Xie Anshi and the others all had bright eyes!
Once upon a time, whenever there was an unsolvable problem in the temple, the empress would hear "I have a solution".

That former Mingjun, she finally came back!
Xie Anshi's mind was agitated, and his voice was a little trembling: "My lord, please speak to me!"

"I thought..." The empress's beautiful eyes scanned the ministers, and her voice was crisp and clear: "The censor Tang Can once proposed the law of national debt, which is amazing. I think he has a solution for this matter. The Qing family may as well ask him. "

Xie Anshi's blood was half cold.

Gao Yuan paused with a smile on his face.

Empress, in order to grab tax money, has she become so insane?

"I think that there is specialization in surgery, and Tang Can can't do anything about it." Xie Anshi flatly refused.

Tang Can was beaten half to death some time ago, and he hasn't fully recovered yet. He didn't want Tang Can to persuade him after knowing the news.

At that time, it will be trivial for the empress to be scolded, in case he is too impulsive...

"I think we should brainstorm, and Prime Minister Xie can go and ask." The empress said.

"The old minister is not feeling well recently, and his heart is always uncomfortable, and he can't bear the shock."

The implication is that I don't want to be scolded.

The empress had a few black lines on her forehead.

Could it be that she should ask?

No.

If she asked, she might not be scolded by Tang Can!

She is the emperor and needs face.

The empress' eyes turned around and fell on Hou Feng.

In this case……

Use Hou Feng's life for that idiot's idea.

In the past few months, the Empress has been intentionally controlling the cruel officials.

This time, it may well be an opportunity.

At this time, Hou Feng didn't know the plan of the empress, but as the lackey of the empress, he stepped forward very sensiblely: "My lord, I would like to ask Tang Can what his idea is!"

While speaking, a trace of viciousness flashed in his eyes.

"In that case, then you go."

Soon, Hou Feng appeared in the court hall with a bruised nose and a swollen face, crying loudly, "Your Majesty... Your Majesty... You must be the master of the minister!"

"The group of general supervisors... unexpectedly didn't let the minister into the general prison, and even beat the minister like this."

"Even... Even if I want to see that Tang Can, he actually tells me to go!"

"The minister said that there was a will from the sage, so they let the minister in."

"After the minister finished speaking, he...he...he actually rebelliously said that Great Liang can wait for the country to perish!"

After listening, the empress's face was gloomy and scary.
