Long live the best

"Guo Ziyun?"

Qin Yun's expression was rather surprised: "You came so early?"

Eunuch Xi laughed and said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, Mr. Guo entered the palace just after dawn and was already waiting outside. The servant advised him to come back later, but Mr. Guo didn't listen, saying that he had something to report."

It was probably about disaster relief and corruption investigation, so Qin Yun immediately said: "Go, invite Mr. Guo in!"

"Yes!" Mr. Xi said fairly.

After a while, Guo Ziyun entered the imperial study and brought several volumes with him.

The pear flower chair gave him a seat, and Qin Yun specially ordered someone to serve him a cup of tea.

Guo Ziyun, an old man, also belongs to the type of honesty and duty. He knelt on the ground and thanked him endlessly.

"Your Majesty, the money and food are already on the way, escorted by the Ministry of War, and it is estimated that they will arrive in Guanzhong in one day. It is enough to relieve the urgent need."

Qin Yun nodded. He knew this from reading the memorial earlier: "Master Guo, you have made great achievements for your hard work. When the disaster in Guanzhong is over, I will reward you."

Guo Ziyun stood up again and bowed: "Thank you, Your Majesty, Long En."

Qin Yun was speechless, he really couldn't stand others kneeling to him, bowing his head himself, and helping him up was also very tiring.

"Your Majesty, there is one more important matter." Guo Ziyun said as he presented the file with both hands.

Qin Yun's eyes lit up, and the main event was coming.

"These three volumes are some state treasury records secretly investigated by Weichen in the name of disaster relief. More than half of the expenditures are outrageous, even unbelievable." Guo Ziyun said with a serious face.

Qin Yun took the file and opened it for a closer look.

It is clearly marked on the above, the expenditure, time, and use of the funds.

For example, last year's New Year's Eve, the emperor hosted a banquet to entertain his ministers, and the expenditure for eating and drinking was as high as 7000 taels of silver.

For another example, repairing the Mochiyue Tower in the Imperial Garden cost 1 taels of silver.

"Grass!"

Qin Yun uttered a foul language, it was an unbelievable expense here and there, and it was purely to treat others as fools!

Can you spend 7000 taels for a New Year's Eve dinner?

Drinking all deer blood and eating gold, it wouldn't take so much, would it?

How many ministers are there, and the maximum number of people who can enter the palace for dinner is less than one or two hundred people, right?

Also, 1 taels of silver to repair an attic, even if Qin Yun didn't know much about prices in Daxia, he still felt it was outrageous!

There are special workers for the repair of the palace, and many stone and wood materials do not cost money at all, so where did the 1 taels go?

It is estimated that it is enough to build a few more moon-watching towers, right?

"Check, let me check!"

"Who handled all this money?" Qin Yun's face was ugly, and the dragon's body trembled slightly!

The ministers eat the royal food and receive the salary, but they are not satisfied in the end, and they still want to cheat the court and corrupt. This is something he can't accept.

Guo Ziyun said: "I tell Your Majesty, I don't know about this humble minister, after all, the humble minister does not have that much authority."

"But what is certain is that it is the Ministry of Accounts that allocates the money. If such outrageous money is allocated, the Ministry of Accounts cannot get away with it!"

Qin Yun got angry and shouted: "Xi Shun!"

Eunuch Xi immediately ran over and knelt down.

"Go! Go outside the palace and call Wang Wei, Minister of the Household Department, to me!"

"Yes!" Seeing His Majesty's furious Longyan, Eunuch Xi didn't dare to stay any longer, and immediately took a password and went to invite someone with a team of chariots, horses and imperial troops.

Near noon.

Wang Wei has arrived.

When he came to the imperial study room, he saw Guo Ziyun, his eyes stopped for a while.

Then knelt down and said, "I have seen Your Majesty."

Qin Yun was drinking iced sour plum soup, put down the small white bowl with lace, and said with displeasure, "Wang Aiqing, take a look at this."

Eunuch Xi handed over the dossier.

Wang Wei frowned, with a suspicious expression on his face. He picked up the file and looked at it. It was densely packed with expenditures from the national treasury.

At that moment, he instantly understood.

His eyes glanced at Guo Ziyun inadvertently, with such a trace of unkindness, how dare someone make a small report on him in the court today!

"Your Majesty, you are wronged!"

He immediately showed grievance, complained again and again, and knelt down.

Qin Yun raised his eyebrows: "Oh? You are wronged, why are you wronged? Could it be that the records on it are wrong?"

Wang Wei clasped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, the expenses recorded in this file are true, and there are indeed such things, but the old minister definitely did not embezzle the treasury and fill his own pockets!"

"The money was indeed spent. Your Majesty, you said at the beginning that the renovation of the Wangyue Tower had to use the golden stone and agate from the Western Regions. It cost a lot of money to buy these two things from outside."

"And last year's New Year's Eve, the feast for the ministers, you nodded after looking at all the expenses, and even you thought it was too shabby, and you even asked people to buy a lot of delicacies, enough to make up a thousand dishes for a table, implying that the great summer will last forever. "

Qin Yun was stunned for a moment. When he thought of his predecessor, he felt that this guy could do such a thing.

Guo Ziyun's face is also a little weird, does His Majesty know about this?

"Even so, your household department is not doing its job well, you actually allocate funds for such a large expenditure?"

"What if one day the treasury can't allocate money?" Qin Yun said lightly.

Wang Wei pressed his forehead to the ground, and replied seamlessly: "The world belongs to His Majesty, so what's wrong with His Majesty wanting to spend some money?"

"Don't talk about a few thousand taels of silver, as long as His Majesty wants to use it, even tens of millions of taels of silver will be allocated correctly!"

The voice is impassioned and deafening!

Qin Yun was stunned.

This old fox has shown his loyalty!
