Achievement system: I am cultivating immortals in the world of martial arts

When the magistrate and county guard saw the ledger in Wang Fugui's hand, their pupils immediately dilated.

Only then did they know where the lost ledger had gone. It turned out that the sixth prince had already obtained it!

It's ridiculous that they swear yesterday that they will be able to fool the past with false accounts, and they also laughed at the big shots from the capital for not eating fireworks.

The funny thing is they.

Wang Fugui opened the ledger, smiled and said to the two senior officials below,

"Prefect Liu, according to my account book, the tax you pay to the treasury every year is 1 taels of silver, 2 shi of grain, which is regarded as a portion of the sealed Wuwei Duke, which is [-] taels of silver, [-] shi of grain.

But as recorded in your account book, the tax money collected every year is as high as 10 taels of silver, [-] shi of grain.

What's going on here?Also bother Liu Zhifu to explain this king's doubts. "

"This this……"

Liu Zhifu was so anxious that he was sweating profusely, and said quickly,

"Sixth Prince Mingjian, the account book you got must have been deliberately planted by a villain to frame the lower officials. The lower officials are conscientious, loyal to the monarch and the country, and never dare to be greedy."

Chai Yuan sneered and said,

"Oh? Then tell me, how did Liu Biao, the county magistrate of Min'an County under the jurisdiction of Wuwei County, become a county magistrate for a mere scholar who is not even a Juren?"

"This...Liu Biao is indeed capable and talented, but he just failed the exams repeatedly, but he is indeed capable of governing the local area, so the lower official recommended him..."

"It should be said that this Liu Biao is your cousin, right? And I don't see how capable he is in governing the region? On the contrary, in recent years, the land mergers in Min'an County have been serious, and the people are struggling to survive."

Chai Yuan went on to say,

"The ones who annexed the land are all your relatives, and some landlords who have honored you?!"

"Lord Chai, I don't dare, I don't dare, I don't dare."

At this time, Zhao Tao came in, clapped his hands and said,

"Reporting to Your Highnesses, the villain found more than [-] taels of silver in the treasury, and more than [-] stones of grain in the grain storehouse."

Hearing this, Liu Zhifu quickly explained,

"Your Highness Sixth, most of this is the share of Lord Wuwei for the past six years. The villain has kept it and dare not use it at all. The rest is the money used by the government for daily expenses."

"That's right, I forgive you for not putting the money you got from greedy ink into the treasury. Prefect Liu still said, where did you hide the money from greedy ink?"

Wang Fugui was still smiling, as if he was asking Liu Zhifu what to eat for dinner.

"Your Highness Sixth, I have been wronged by you, and I have not been corrupt and taxed. Your Highness has clearly checked."

Prefect Liu was so aggrieved that he almost burst into tears, trying to defend himself, and Pang De who was next to him was even more useless, staying where he was in a daze, without even making excuses.

Liu Zhifu slapped Pound's thigh fiercely angrily, and Pound suddenly realized that he knelt down and said,

"Your Highness, someone must be deliberately framing us and blinding His Highness. Your Highness must be the master for us."

Hearing this, Wang Fugui looked at Pang De in surprise,

"Oh? Sheriff Pang is also involved?"

I……

At this time, Pang De wished to slap Liu Zhifu to death.

What a fool.

At this time, Zhao Long walked in quickly from the outside, clapped his hands and said,

"His Royal Highness, only some antique calligraphy and paintings and thousands of taels of silver were found in the Sheriff's Mansion."

Zhao Long frowned, apparently dissatisfied with the result. Pang De had been a sheriff for many years, so it was certainly impossible for him to be greedy for such a little.

Pang De turned his head to look at Zhao Long, pointed at him with a red face and cursed,

"Hello, Zhao Long, I have shown you the kindness of knowing you, and I have worked hard to promote you and cultivate you. This is how you repay me? You are a dog who eats inside and outside!"

Zhao Long sneered when he heard the words,

"Why did you say that? The general is loyal to the country, not you. It is the imperial court that arranges the position for the general, not you. The salary that is distributed to the general is also the tax collected by the court from the people. It's not the money that your county sheriff took.

The last general is now punishing corrupt officials for the court and the people, so why talk about it? "

"You...you ungrateful person..."

Pound continued to scold him, but Liu Zhifu hurriedly pulled him away.

Can't you see this idiot?Zhao Long has taken refuge in the Sixth Prince, and now he has a strong backer, if you confront him head-on, isn't that courting death?

What's more, Zhao Long has always seen the two of them as disliked, so how could he let them go at this time.

Wang Fugui's eyeballs rolled, so as to be suspicious,

"Oh, it's so difficult. Logically speaking, it's really not easy for you two. You have been officials for so many years, and the local government is still doing well. You shouldn't be punished for a little corruption.

But you don’t cooperate, tell me, we have found out, if nothing happens, then the censor in the capital can’t impeach us for collaborating with you?

If we cooperate with handing over the stolen money, we can still say a few words in front of His Majesty, after all, the attitude is still good.

But if you refuse to cooperate, the crime will be aggravated. "

Having said that, Wang Fugui glanced at the two of them and smiled,

"Of course, Prefect Liu is definitely not afraid. At worst, he will be dismissed and investigated, and he will go home for the elderly. He is already alone.

But Governor Pang, you are different. I remember, your uncle is Uncle Lushan, right?Earl's family, if you commit a crime alone, it will implicate the whole family.

Uncle Pang went to great lengths to send you here to let you help him earn money, not to let you help him find trouble and ruin the family's future.

Alas, it's so difficult. "

When Pang De heard this, his face turned pale, and his whole body trembled like chaff. He had already imagined that after he was arrested, the Patriarch would ignore him and even beat him up.

At this time, Chai Yuan said,

"If it's difficult, don't do it, our business is the most important thing, and we have to rush to give Han Taibao the title of Marquis.

Let me tell Han Taibao about this matter, Wuwei County is not far from his fief, and it is also the territory of Lord Wuwei.

Everyone knows that Han Taibao respects Duke Wuwei the most, if he knows that someone dares to embezzle Duke Wuwei's money, the consequences will be, tsk tsk tsk..."

For Pound, this sentence was a head-on blow.

Yes, if the emperor commits a crime, there is nothing to be afraid of, the worst is to chop him off, but if Han Yun retaliates, that single husband dares to destroy the whole family of the Duke if he disagrees with him.

As for him, he is just an earl family...

"Your Highness, Your Highness, I said, I said, the money is all embezzled by Liu Xin, and it has nothing to do with me."

Pound kowtowed repeatedly to beg for mercy.

Liu Xin's face turned pale in an instant. Pang De, an idiot, can't he see that these people are trying to scare him?

Is this a trick to surrender?

How could I be with this idiot!

Wang Fugui laughed loudly,

"That's right, it's all done by Prefect Liu. It has nothing to do with Sheriff Pang, and it has nothing to do with Uncle Pang."

"So, Sheriff Pang, where is the money?"
